The OA (2016)
S03E17 Born to be Wilde
Episode Overview
Jake decides to join a celebrity pool tournament to uncover whether it's fixed. Accompanying him is Nora, who takes on the role of "chalk girl." During a flashy match against Gary Coleman, Jake accidentally hits himself in the eye with a cue stick, forcing Nora to step in. To everyone's surprise, she reveals her true talent as a fierce pool shark. After easily defeating Gary, she advances to the finals to battle Trisha Yearwood. Jake persuades her to lose for the sake of their story, and although she agrees, Trisha's arrogance ignites her competitive spirit, leading to a chaotic fight. Later, while nursing their injuries at the bar, Nora proposes a pool game, and as she guides Jake's hands on the cue stick, an unexpected connection sparks between them. Meanwhile, Suji and Harris are both vying for the office of a recently deceased colleague. Suji proposes they hold a contest inspired by a van show she saw at the mall.
