Smallville

Burned out and broke, former big league pitcher Kenny Powers returns home to North Carolina to teach PE at a local school he once attended. Wreaking havoc at school, around town and at the home of his brother, Dustin, Kenny settles into his role as the town's loose-cannon agitator, setting his sights on winning back his high school flame, April.

To avoid selling his beloved jet ski, Kenny looks to score some extra cash by pitching himself as spokesman for a local luxury car dealership. The gig threatens to turn into a fiasco when the dealership owner insists that Kenny pitch a fastball to a fan. Later, Kenny and his driver, Clegg, make a memorable cameo appearance at the middle school dance.

Kenny enlists the fawning Stevie to be his personal assistant, ordering him to scope out a high school pitching phenom viewed as Kenny's big-league competition. Meanwhile, Dustin's wife, Cassie, offers to sell Kenny's baseball memorabilia on eBay, while Kenny gets serious about getting in shape by any means possible.

Kenny looks to rekindle an old flame at a barbecue hosted by April and Cutler. Stevie cuts a greatest hits DVD for his favorite ballplayer in hopes of getting Kenny a big league tryout.

Convinced he's lost his stuff, Kenny decides to give up his comeback dreams and move on as a working stiff -- but his resolve is tested by arrogant car dealer Ashley Schaeffer and his new pet celebrity, a major league archnemesis named Reg Mackworthy.

Kenny says goodbye to his life as a schoolteacher -- and bids farewell to Dustin and his family -- after he's tendered a big league job offer in Tampa.
