Robbie Thorne is doing his best not to disappoint, well, everyone.
And of course, Robbie was caught in the middle.
ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: This week we got to see a bit of Robbies home life.

I was like, Would Robbie be the throw in of person to allow bullying in his home?
Would he turn his back on the troop?
Jason and I talked and I said, I dont think hes that person.
We had discussed that and I think this was the episode where we really get to see that.
I discovered that hes a good person at heart.
Hes trying to do whats best for Robbie.
Theres a lot of pressure from his dad but it doesnt really phase him.
Its a different key in of pressure than, You gotta do good at football, son!
Lets deal with this right now!
After everything thats going on, why dont we put that right in front of my face?!
We see that right before the game starts when he tells Lilette he broke things off with Stephanie.
Because he really likes Lilette.
Hes going to do everything in his power to double-check that doesnt happen.
What is happening with Robbie and Lilette?
What is going on?
Its like, all right, well let you know exactly where we are.
What was it like to film that football game?Those were long days.
I was like, Yeah I know, let me do my stunts!
[Laughs] But we had a blast with it.
We were all out there playing football at least until about 2 or 3 in the morning.
It was a long night but it was so much fun.
It was also I think 800 background [actors] there for the crowd scenes.
Theres nothing quite as cool as having 800 people scream for you as you run onto the field.
That was pretty awesome.
Im very excited for people to see that.
But my favorite episode is the finale.
When we got the finale script, a lot of us could not put it down.
Riseairs Tuesdays at 9 p.m.
