(Jake) ADDISON? SWEETHEART, OPEN THE DOOR.
NO, I'M FINE. THANKS.
OPEN THE DOOR SO WE CAN TALK.
OH.
TALKING.
TALKING IS SO OVERRATED.
NO, IT'S OKAY. I'M FINE. THANKS. GO AWAY.
WE CAN, UH, YOU KNOW, TALK LATER.
ADDISON, I DON'T--I DON'T WANT YOU TO FEEL EMBARRASSED.
NO, IT'S OKAY. CLEARLY, I HAD IT COMING.
I DID THE SAME THING TO SAM WHEN HE PROPOSED TO ME,
SO KARMICALLY, YOU KNOW, I MEAN, KARMA...
(laughs) IS SO AWESOME.
I-I DIDN'T SAY NO.
YOU DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING, WHICH IS... FINE.
IT'S FINE. IT'S FINE. IT'S FINE. IT'S FINE.
BECAUSE NOW I'M...
LOCKED IN THE BATHROOM LIKE A CRAZY PERSON,
WHICH I'M SURE MAKES ME SO ATTRACTIVE TO YOU.
YOU WANT ME SO BADLY RIGHT NOW, I'M BETTING. (chuckles)
I LOVE YOU.
I LOVE YOU--THE BRILLIANT,
THE STUNNING, THE BITCHY,
THE CRAZY IN THE MORNING, IN THE AFTERNOON, 3:00 P.M.--
OKAY, JUST STOP. DON'T SAY ANYMORE.
ALL RIGHT? 'CAUSE YOU SAY THESE NICE THINGS,
AND IT JUST MAKES ME MORE IN LOVE WITH YOU
AND THAT JUST MAKES ME WANT TO MARRY YOU MORE,
WHICH ISN'T HELPING, BECAUSE I JUST PROPOSED TO YOU,
AND YOU DIDN'T SAY YES.
OR NO. I-I DIDN'T SAY NO.
BABY, JUST OPEN THE DOOR, PLEASE.
(latch clicks)
I AM IN THIS. ALL RIGHT?
NO QUESTIONS, NO RESERVATIONS.
DO YOU NOT WANT TO GET MARRIED? IT'S NOT THAT.
IT'S JUST-- IT'S A BIG STEP.
THE BIGGEST STEP. AND I...
I WANT US TO BE READY.
SO THAT'S A NO?
IT'S NOT A NO. IT'S JUST A...
NOT RIGHT NOW.
(sighs)
YOU'RE GONNA LOCK YOURSELF IN THE BATHROOM AGAIN.
OKAY, WELL, I'M GONNA BE RIGHT OUTSIDE HERE,
ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE DOOR.
RIGHT HERE. I'M NOT-- I'M NOT GOING ANYWHERE.
(exhales deeply)
I'M GONNA BE RIGHT HERE.
SO WHAT'S NEW?
THAT WAS PRETTY BIG, DON'T YOU THINK?
I DON'T WANT TO TALK ABOUT IT. NOT WITH YOU.
I DON'T THINK THAT'S TRUE.
I MEAN, YOU'RE HERE, IN OUR SPOT.
YOU KNOW IF YOU COME, I'LL SHOW UP.
DON'T GIVE ME THE LOOK.
I'M ONLY HERE BECAUSE YOU WANT ME TO BE HERE.
IT'S BEEN A WHILE SINCE WE CAUGHT UP.
I'VE BEEN BUSY.
I KNOW.
IT'S GOOD.
YOU'RE HAPPY.
I WANT YOU TO BE HAPPY.
I WANT YOU TO FORGET ABOUT ME.
THAT'S NEVER GONNA HAPPEN.
(Addison) SO HERE IS THE THING--
I DIDN'T SAY NO. I'M STILL THINKING ABOUT IT.
WHAT DID I SAY?
TO NEVER MENTION IT AGAIN.
ADDISON-- NEVER MENTION IT AGAIN.
PLEASE, SWEETIE. EVERYTHING'S NORMAL.
IT NEVER HAPPENED.
OKAY. SO WHAT'S THE THING?
OH, MILDRED, THE SOCIAL WORKER.
I TOLD HER ABOUT OUR STATUS CHANGE.
WHAT?
THE MOVE, THAT YOU MOVED IN.
SO SHE NEEDS TO MEET WITH YOU BEFORE THE HEARING,
BECAUSE UNTIL HENRY IS OFFICIALLY MINE,
YOU KNOW, BY LAW, I HAVE TO UPDATE HER EVERY TIME--
A NEW GUY MOVES IN?
OF COURSE I WILL MEET WITH MILDRED.
YEAH? YOU'RE OKAY WITH THAT?
HEY. I LOVE HENRY. I LOVE YOU. I'M OKAY.
ARE WE OKAY?
ABSOLUTELY. YOU LOVE HENRY.
YOU LOVE ME.
I LOVE YOU.
WE'RE GOOD.
HAVE EITHER OF YOU BEEN SLEEPING?
NOT ME.
NOT SINCE SARAH WENT MISSING.
BUT DANA...
THE PILLS HELP, I THINK.
DANA?
YEAH.
THEY DO.
THEY HELP ME. AND WHEN I SLEEP,
SARAH'S THERE, SMILING.
SOMETIMES I CAN EVEN HEAR HER.
WELL, IT'S BEEN ABOUT SIX WEEKS,
AND I WONDER IF...
PERHAPS WE SHOULD CONSIDER WEANING YOU OFF THE PILLS.
I DON'T THINK THAT'S A GOOD IDEA.
I'M WORRIED THAT SHE'S BECOMING TOO DEPENDENT ON THEM.
SO WHAT? WHAT'S WRONG WITH THAT?
THIS MEDICATION CAN BE ADDICTIVE.
IT'S NOT MEANT FOR LONG-TERM USE,
AND I THINK IT'S HAVING A-A NUMBING EFFECT ON DANA.
THAT'S THE POINT. YOU WANT HER TO FEEL THIS?
SHE CAN'T FEEL THIS,
BECAUSE I'M FEELING THIS,
AND I GOTTA TELL YOU,
THAT IF ONE OF US DIDN'T NEED TO BE CONSCIOUS,
IF ONE OF US DIDN'T NEED TO TALK TO THE COPS
OR MAKE A PUBLIC PLEA, IF WE COULD BOTH BE NUMB--
I WOULD BE TAKING ANYTHING TO NOT FEEL THIS.
YOU CAN'T TAKE AWAY HER PILLS.
RON-- NO. NO. NO.
SHE FALLS ASLEEP, AND FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS,
IT'S OKAY.
BUT THEN SHE WAKES UP, AND...
THIS NIGHTMARE THAT WE'RE LIVING IS BACK.
SHE STARTS TO SCREAM
BECAUSE WE DON'T KNOW WHERE OUR BABY IS.
I CRY.
WHEN I WAKE UP, IT HITS ME AGAIN, AND I CRY.
HE HOLDS ME.
HE'S BEEN GOOD TO ME.
HE'S THERE.
SO YOU'RE LEANING ON EACH OTHER.
IN THE FACE OF THIS TRAGEDY,
YOUR RECONCILIATION, IT...
IT'S A POSITIVE.
I CAN'T BELIEVE IT. YOU'RE SURE?
I'M SURE.
WELL, MAYBE FIFTH TIME'S THE CHARM.
OH, IT'S EARLY YET, BUT I'M CONFIDENT.
JUST REMEMBER TO TAKE IT EASY AND STAY CALM.
THAT'S--THAT'S SO IMPORTANT. AND YOU CALL ME
IF YOU'RE WORRIED ABOUT ANYTHING, ALL RIGHT?
OH, I CAN'T WAIT TO CALL DANNY.
HE'S AT A CONFERENCE IN HONG KONG,
BUT HE'S GONNA BE SO THRILLED.
THANK YOU, DR. REILLY. SURE.
(elevator bell dings)
(people speaking indistinctly)
UH, MEGAN, YOU REMEMBER DR. MONTGOMERY.
OF COURSE.
UM, YOUR BOYFRIEND'S A GENIUS.
MM. I'M PREGNANT AGAIN.
CONGRATULATIONS.
THANKS AGAIN, DR. REILLY.
SURE.
NOW LISTEN, I-I DID TELL MEGAN
THAT IT MIGHT BE TIME TO CONSIDER OTHER OPTIONS.
AHEM.
I DID, BUT SHE BEGGED ME
TO TRY AT LEAST ONE MORE TIME, SO...
ADDISON.
MM? I DID NOT SAY ANYTHING.
WE AGREED TO DISAGREE.
YOUR PATIENT...
YOUR PRACTICE,
YOUR PREROGATIVE.
(people continue speaking indistinctly)
(elevator bell dings)
(indistinct conversations)
AH.
DR. SHEPHERD.
DR. PETERSON.
SO GLAD YOU COULD JOIN ME.
OH. THAT'S YOURS?
I FORGOT MY ORANGE SODA.
YOU CAN ONLY GET IT IN THE VENDING MACHINE UP ON FOUR.
(indistinct conversations continue)
BUSY DAY? ABOUT NORMAL.
ME? I HAD 12 PATIENTS--
ALL EMERGENT, ALL WITHIN A HALF-HOUR.
IT WAS CRAZY.
REMINDED ME OF WHEN I USED TO WAIT TABLES BACK IN THE DAY.
MM.
(timer dings)
THIS IS NICE.
WHAT IS? YOU AND I HAVING LUNCH TOGETHER.
NOT TOGETHER.
YOU ARE EATING LUNCH.
I'M EATING LUNCH. WE HAPPEN TO BE DOING THAT AT THE SAME TABLE,
SO, YOU KNOW, NOT A DATE.
OF COURSE IT'S NOT A DATE.
IF IT WERE, YOU'D BE ENJOYING YOURSELF.
WE'D BE HAVING A PICNIC ON THE BEACH--
I DON'T LIKE SAND IN MY FOOD.
WHICH IS WHY THE MOUNTAINS ARE IDEAL.
WE COULD HAVE DINNER IN FRONT OF THE FIREPLACE
AT SOME HISTORIC LODGE--
AIR IS TOO THIN IN THE MOUNTAINS.
HARD TO BREATHE. DOESN'T SOUND LIKE MUCH FUN.
NOT COMPARED TO THE HAPPIEST PLACE ON EARTH.
HOW ABOUT DISNEYLAND?
HOW ABOUT WE EAT AT THE SAME TABLE,
NOT TOGETHER, IN SILENCE?
UM, YOU SHOULD KNOW-- DUDE, SILENCE.
RIGHT. DON'T CALL ME "DUDE."
AND THERE'S KETCHUP ON YOUR FACE.
(indistinct conversations continue)
(indistinct conversations)
WHAT, TOMORROW? I THOUGHT IT WOULD TAKE MILDRED
AT LEAST A WEEK TO SET THE APPOINTMENT UP.
IT'S FINE. I KNOW WHAT TO SAY. SO WHAT ARE YOU GONNA SAY
WHEN SHE ASKS YOU ABOUT YOU AND HENRY?
I'LL EXPLAIN THAT I ONLY GIVE HIM GLASS AND KNIVES
TO PLAY WITH WHEN I LEAVE HIM ALONE FOR HOURS ON END. JAKE.
(mouth full) STOP WORRYING.
ISN'T THAT ANGELA?
HI!
HEY, HONEY. (kisses) WOW. WHAT A NICE SURPRISE.
YEAH. ADDISON, HI. HI.
NOW WAIT A SECOND.
SHOULDN'T YOU, UH, SHOULDN'T YOU BE STUDYING?
DEAN'S LIST EVERY SEMESTER.
ARE YOU SEEING, UM... YES. MY BOYFRIEND WANTED TO SEE IT, SO...
OH, ETHAN'S HERE? NO. I MOVED ON.
WHAT'D HE DO?
IT'S LESS OF WHAT DID AND MORE OF WHAT HE WAS--
A TOTAL JERK, YOU KNOW, STUPID FRAT BOY.
I'M WAY TOO GOOD FOR THAT.
YEAH, YOU ARE.
HEY. BABY.
HEY. (laughs)
(indistinct conversations continue)
HI. I'M--I'M ADDISON.
ADDISON, YES. I'M ELI WILSON.
YEAH. THIS IS JAKE.
HOW YOU DOING?
DR. JAKE REILLY, ANGELA'S FATHER.
OF COURSE. ANGELA'S TOLD ME SO MUCH ABOUT YOU.
I'M IN AWE OF M.D.s.
I'M A DOCTOR, BUT I'M A PhD. IT'S NOT THE SAME.
NO.
SO YOU TEACH?
HUMAN SEXUALITY.
THAT'S WHERE WE MET, IN CLASS.
HUMAN SEXUALITY CLASS?
I SEE.
HEY, ELI. THE MOVIE'S ABOUT TO START.
UH, IT WAS GREAT TO MEET YOU,
AND, UH, YOU ARE EVEN MORE BEAUTIFUL THAN ANGE SAID.
OH. (laughs)
SEE YOU LATER.
(indistinct conversations continue)
WOW.
NOT A WORD.
NOT A SINGLE WORD.
I MEAN, WHAT THE HELL IS SHE THINKING?
THAT HE'S HANDSOME, SOPHISTICATED, A DOCTOR.
HE'S NOT A DOCTOR. HE'S A TEACHER.
I WAS A TEACHER.
YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN.
SHE'S A GROWN WOMAN.
NO. NO, SHE'S NOT.
SHE'S A LITTLE GIRL CLUNKING AROUND IN HER DADDY'S SHOES,
PRETENDING TO GO OFF TO WORK.
YOU NEED TO LET HER MAKE HER OWN MISTAKES,
TAKE HER OWN PATH.
I'M WORRIED ABOUT HER. THIS IS...
THIS IS BAD.
WELL, IT COULD BE WORSE. HOW?
SHE COULD BE A DRUG ADDICT,
LIKE HER MOM.
(whispers) HE'S 50? SERIOUSLY?
(lowered voice) I COULD DATE HIM,
EXCEPT HE'S A LITTLE OLD FOR ME.
(lowered voice) IT'S A DISASTER IN THE MAKING.
(lowered voice) YOU DON'T KNOW THAT.
I MEAN, IF ANGELA WAS 40, AND THE GUY WAS NEAR 70--
WE'D THINK MAYBE SHE WAS AFTER HIS MONEY.
(lowered voice) IT'S A PHASE. IT'S NEVER GONNA WORK.
WELL, OF COURSE IT'S NEVER GONNA WORK.
HOW CAN YOU BE IN A MEANINGFUL RELATIONSHIP
WITH SOMEONE WHO'S MORE THAN TWICE YOUR AGE?
EXCEPT THAT THE MATURITY IS PART OF WHAT ATTRACTS HER TO HIM.
WELL, SHE SHOULD DATE A GRAD STUDENT THEN.
(whispering) JAKE MUST BE BLOWING A GASKET.
(whispering) WHY IS HE BLOWING A GASKET?
AND MORE IMPORTANTLY, WHY ARE WE WHISPERING?
JAKE'S DAUGHTER IS DATING A MAN WAY TOO OLD FOR HER.
OH.
(normal voice) YOU DO KNOW THAT JAKE ISN'T HERE, RIGHT?
(normal voice) SAM, ANGELA'S 20. SHE'S A WOMAN.
(normal voice) 20'S NOT A WOMAN. (normal voice) MAYA'S 19, AND SHE'S A MOTHER.
GIVING BIRTH DOES NOT IMPLY MATURITY.
(normal voice) FATHERING A CHILD CERTAINLY DOESN'T.
OH, YOU CAN'T GENERALIZE. YOU KNOW, 70 DEGREES IN MAY
DOESN'T SEEM QUITE AS WARM AS 70 IN DECEMBER.
SEE, I LIKE WHAT YOU DID THERE WITH THE MAY AND DECEMBER.
I'M SAYING THAT EVERY 20 IS DIFFERENT,
AND YOUR TRANSITION FROM BOY TO MAN, FORM GIRL TO WOMAN,
DEPENDS ON INDIVIDUAL CIRCUMSTANCE
AND LIFE EXPERIENCE.
HE'S HER PROFESSOR.
OH.
WELL, THEN FORGET IT. THERE'S DEFINITELY A...
QUESTIONABLE POWER DYNAMIC THERE.
MM. SOMETIMES THE STUDENT HAS THE POWER.
MM.
DID YOU SLEEP WITH A PROFESSOR?
NOT SO MUCH A AS...
THREE.
THREE? WHEN DID YOU STUDY?
OH. WAS ONE OF THEM A WOMAN?
LOOK, I WAS FAIRLY TROUBLED IN COLLEGE.
IT WAS A DARK TIME FOR ME.
SO EXPLORING MY SEXUAL BOUNDARIES
WAS A WAY OF TAKING BACK MY SEXUALITY.
AND ONE OF THEM WAS A WOMAN?
(Sam) LOOK, NO PARENT WANTS TO THINK
OF ONE OF THEIR CONTEMPORARIES
AS HELPING THEIR CHILD EXPLORE SEXUAL BOUNDARIES.
THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG WITH THIS PROFESSOR GUY.
HE NEEDS TO FIND A PLAYMATE HIS OWN AGE.
YEAH, WELL, ANGELA SEEMS PRETTY TAKEN WITH HIM,
AND JAKE'S GONNA HAVE LUNCH WITH HER TODAY
AND--AND TALK ABOUT IT.
HE--HE THINKS IT'LL BE OKAY.
YEAH, HE'S DREAMING.
MM-HMM.
I UNDERSTAND YOU HAVE A CHILD?
I DO. ANGELA.
HER MOTHER PASSED AWAY QUITE A WHILE AGO.
ANGELA'S IN COLLEGE,
AND WE'RE VERY CLOSE. WE, UH, WE TALK ALL THE TIME,
YOU KNOW, ABOUT-- ABOUT EVERYTHING.
(chuckles) I'M SURE YOU THINK SO.
EXCUSE ME?
I HAVE FIVE CHILDREN.
THEY SHARE THE TRIVIAL STUFF
JUST TO THROW YOU OFF THE SCENT OF THE REALLY BAD STUFF.
YEAH, WELL, I-I GATHER AS MUCH,
BUT EVEN WITH ALL THE HELL THEY PUT YOU THROUGH,
UH, YOU KNOW, I ADORE KIDS.
I LOVE HENRY AS THOUGH HE WERE MY OWN,
AND, YOU KNOW, I DO HAVE EXPERIENCE IN THIS, UH,
I MEAN, EVEN THOUGH ANGE HASN'T LIVED WITH ME
FOR QUITE SOME TIME,
PARENTHOOD IS A LOT LIKE, UH, RIDING A BIKE, RIGHT?
NO. WHEN YOU MAKE A MISTAKE RIDING A BIKE,
YOU FALL, YOU BREAK YOUR OWN NECK.
WHEN PARENTING A CHILD, FAILURE CAN BE HARDER TO NOTICE
AND IMPOSSIBLE TO FIX.
OKAY. BUT THE ODDS ARE BETTER FOR HENRY
BECAUSE HE HAS ADDISON AND ME SHARING THE RESPONSIBILITIES.
AND YOU BOTH WORK.
RIGHT. UM, BUT ONE OF US IS ALWAYS THERE FOR HENRY.
I MEAN, HE'S NEVER LEFT ALONE.
THERE'S A HOME INSPECTION COMPONENT TO THIS.
I'D LIKE TO COME BY IN A DAY OR TWO.
PLEASE HAVE THE CHILD PRESENT. ABSOLUTELY.
WHAT, UH,
WHAT IS THAT?
I NEED TO SEND YOUR FINGERPRINTS ELECTRONICALLY
TO THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE. PART OF THE BACKGROUND CHECK.
PLACE YOUR FINGER ON THE SCANNER.
PLEASE TRY NOT TO MOVE.
(people speaking indistinctly)
DR. REILLY, IS THERE A PROBLEM?
NO.
NO, OF COURSE NOT.
(typing on keyboard)
(computer beeps)
HEY. HOW'D IT GO?
MILDRED'S A LITTLE SCARY.
WELL, I TOLD YOU WHAT SHE WAS LIKE.
YEAH, I WISH YOU WOULD'VE TOLD ME
ABOUT THE, UH, FINGERPRINTING, TOO.
OH, I THOUGHT I DID.
WHY? YOU GOT A RECORD THAT I SHOULD KNOW ABOUT?
JAKE. IT'S GONNA SOUND A LOT WORSE THAN IT IS.
OKAY. START TALKING RIGHT NOW, 'CAUSE I'M FREAKING OUT.
IT WAS A LONG TIME AGO. LILY'S--
LILY STARTED USING AGAIN,
AND HER DIRTBAG DEALER CAME OVER TO THE HOUSE,
OUR HOUSE, SO I WENT OUTSIDE TO TELL HIM TO GO AWAY.
HE REFUSED, AND THINGS GOT A LITTLE OUT OF HAND,
SO THERE WAS A FIGHT.
I WAS PROTECTING MY--MY WIFE AND CHILD.
OKAY. SO YOU HIT HIM. THAT DOESN'T SOUND SO BAD.
WELL, THAT WOULDN'T BE SO BAD, BUT I BEAT THE CRAP OUT OF HIM,
THE COPS CAME, AND I WAS ARRESTED.
DID YOU GO TO JAIL?
JUST FOR A NIGHT. BUT I GOT OUT ON BAIL.
I WAS SENTENCED TO PROBATION, DID SOME COMMUNITY SERVICE.
THE THING IS, WHEN YOU'RE ARRESTED,
THEY TAKE YOUR PRINTS AND THEY STAY IN THE SYSTEM,
SO IF MILDRED RUNS MY PRINTS...
HENRY'S MY SON.
THIS ADOPTION IS EVERYTHING TO ME.
ADDISON, THIS DEALER WAS AN ANIMAL
WITH A RAP SHEET LONGER THAN "WAR AND PEACE."
OKAY? THE JUDGE-- HE UNDERSTOOD MY SIDE.
SO IF MILDRED READS MY FILE, SHE'S GONNA UNDERSTAND, TOO.
IT'S GONNA BE OKAY. I PROMISE.
SO...
HOW'S SCHOOL?
THAT'S NOT WHAT YOU WANNA ASK.
I WAS EASING INTO IT.
DON'T.
ALL RIGHT, LOOK, I'M SURE ELI IS A VERY NICE MAN.
ACTUALLY, YOU KNOW WHAT? I'M NOT SURE.
I THINK THIS IS A VERY BAD IDEA.
I DON'T NEED YOUR PERMISSION.
YOU USED TO TRUST ME. I BELIEVE I'VE EARNED THE RIGHT,
AS YOUR FATHER, WHO LOVES YOU, TO AT LEAST STATE MY OPINION.
IT WOULD BE DIFFERENT IF HE WEREN'T YOUR PROFESSOR.
FOR ONE SEMESTER.
THEN HE WON'T BE MY PROFESSOR ANYMORE.
BUT WE BOTH KNOW THAT'S NOT WHAT THIS IS ABOUT.
YOU DON'T LIKE HOW OLD HE IS.
NO, I DON'T. HE'S MY AGE.
SOMEDAY I'LL BE YOUR AGE.
AND THEN, IF YOU STILL WANT TO,
YOU CAN DATE HIM IN THE NURSING HOME.
SO IF HE WAS TEN YEARS YOUNGER THAN YOU, THAT WOULD BE OKAY?
I MEAN, WHAT'S THE CUTOFF?
39? 28?
LISTEN, SWEETHEART, YOU'RE-- YOU'RE ON--
YOU'RE ON DIFFERENT PLANES.
ALL RIGHT? HE'S GOT 30 YEARS MORE EXPERIENCE.
YOU'RE INTO YOUR WHAT, SECOND REAL RELATIONSHIP? HMM?
HE'LL HURT YOU.
ETHAN HURT ME. HE WAS MY AGE.
WHAT LOOKS RIGHT ON PAPER ISN'T ALWAYS RIGHT.
(scoffs) YOU MARRIED A DRUG ADDICT AND YOU WERE HAPPY.
I'M TRYING TO PROTECT YOU.
I DON'T NEED PROTECTION.
I'M AN ADULT.
NOT IF YOU HAVE TO SAY IT.
I LOVE YOU, DAD,
BUT I ALSO LOVE ELI.
SO DON'T MAKE ME CHOOSE, BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT GONNA LIKE MY CHOICE.
YOU THINK THAT SOCIAL WORKER WILL FIND OUT?
I DON'T KNOW.
I THOUGHT YOU WERE GONNA KILL THAT GUY.
I WOULD'VE DONE ANYTHING TO PROTECT YOU AND ANGE.
I STILL WOULD, IF IT MATTERS.
IT DOES MATTER.
YOU NEED TO SUCK IT UP.
DON'T--DON'T TELL ME TO EASE UP ON ELI.
I'M TELLING YOU TO BE THERE FOR OUR DAUGHTER BECAUSE I CAN'T.
SO HEY, WHATEVER THAT MEANS.
LILY-- NO. NO.
YOU PUSH TOO HARD THE OTHER WAY, SHE WILL MARRY HIM.
YOU KNOW THAT, RIGHT?
(indistinct conversations)
(woman speaking indistinctly over p.a.)
DR. SHEPHERD, WE HAVE TO STOP MEETING LIKE THIS.
DON'T GET TOO EXCITED, DR. PETERSON.
I'M JUST SIGNING OFF ON A CONSULT.
DO YOU THINK YOU COULD CALL ME JAMES
AND I COULD CALL YOU AMELIA?
NOPE.
OKAY, WELL, THAT'LL MAKE MY NEXT QUESTION TOUGHER.
YOU KNOW, BILLY'S ON NORTH CANYON?
I'M THERE EVERY FRIDAY NIGHT. REALLY, REALLY GOOD FRIES.
ANYWAY, YOU SHOULD COME.
HOW MANY TIMES ARE YOU GONNA ASK ME OUT ON A DATE?
I WASN'T. I WAS JUST SAYING, I EAT DINNER THERE,
AND YOU COULD EAT DINNER THERE,
AND IF WE HAPPEN TO BE DOING THAT
AT THE SAME TABLE, SO BE IT.
AND WE DON'T HAVE TO TALK AT ALL.
THINK ABOUT IT.
(woman speaking indistinctly over p.a.)
YOU KNOW,
REALLY, REALLY GOOD FRIES ARE HARD TO COME BY.
(clicks tongue)
(Cooper) MM. NO MORE MENTIONS OF SARAH.
IT'S BEEN A WHILE. SHE WENT MISSING FROM THE E.R.,
WHAT... SIX WEEKS AGO.
AND THREE DAYS.
(sighs) I HOPE THAT SHE'S STILL ALIVE.
THEY FOUND ELIZABETH SMART AFTER NINE MONTHS.
WELL, THAT'S THE EXCEPTION.
THE ODDS OF FINDING A MISSING CHILD
DROP EXPONENTIALLY AFTER THE FIRST COUPLE OF DAYS.
HER PARENTS--I DON'T--
I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU LIVE THROUGH SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
I GUESS AT SOME POINT, YOU GOTTA MOVE ON, RIGHT?
AND WHEN EXACTLY IS THAT, WOULD YOU SAY?
I'M ASKING. SERIOUSLY, WEEKS? MONTHS?
WHEN IS IT OKAY TO MOVE ON WITH YOUR LIFE?
NEVER. IT'S NOT THAT SIMPLE.
LETTING GO TAKES TIME.
YOU'RE PLAGUED WITH MEMORIES AND BETRAYAL
AND GUILT. YOU KNOW, AFTER ANGELA'S MOTHER DIED,
I THINK IT TOOK ME A YEAR TO SMILE AGAIN.
AS FOR LETTING GO, I THINK THAT JUST DEPENDS ON THE PERSON.
YEAH. IN THIS SITUATION, THERE'S NO BODY,
AND THEREFORE NO CLOSURE. EXACTLY.
IT'S ALL SPECULATION. SO IF SARAH'S ALIVE
AND COMES BACK AFTER RON AND DANA HAVE GIVEN UP,
THEY'LL NEVER FORGIVE THEMSELVES.
BUT IF SHE'S DEAD,
AND THEY DON'T MOVE ON,
THEY COULD SPEND DECADES JUST WAITING.
I... I DON'T KNOW HOW TO COUNSEL THEM.
(people speaking indistinctly)
SO LUNCH DIDN'T GO SO GREAT.
WELL, WHAT DID YOU THINK,
ONCE YOU TOLD HER THAT YOU DIDN'T APPROVE,
THAT ANGELA WOULD JUST END IT?
SHE LIKES HIM.
APPARENTLY, SHE LOVES HIM.
I MEAN, WHAT THE HELL DOES SHE SEE IN THE GUY ANYWAY?
I'M NOT SURE I CAN ANSWER THAT WITHOUT GETTING IN TROUBLE.
ALL RIGHT, I'M SURE THE GUY HAS HIS POSITIVE ATTRIBUTES,
AND IF HE WEREN'T THE LECH AFTER MY DAUGHTER,
I MIGHT EVEN SEE THEM. THIS--THIS CAN'T GO ON.
WELL, IT CAN IF THEY WANT IT TO.
I MEAN, HONEY, THERE'S REALLY NOTHING THAT YOU CAN DO.
I CAN CALL THE UNIVERSITY AND HAVE HIM FIRED.
WELL, THAT WILL ALL BUT ENSURE THAT SHE MARRIES THE GUY.
LOOK, ANGELA'S A SMART GIRL. SHE'S GONNA FIGURE IT OUT.
BUT I TELL YOU WHAT, SHE'S GONNA GET THERE A LOT FASTER
IF THE TWO OF YOU MAKE PEACE.
WHAT? NO.
YES. YOU NEED TO SUCK IT UP
AND INVITE THEM OVER FOR DINNER.
(pager beeps and buzzes)
OH, NO.
MEGAN'S IN THE E.R.
(sighs)
I'M SO HAPPY YOU'RE HERE.
I STARTED CRAMPING AND I KEPT TRYING TO STAY CALM
AND TELL MYSELF ALL THE STUFF YOU ALWAYS SAY,
BUT IT WASN'T WORKING.
SOMETHING IS DEFINITELY WRONG.
NO, MEGAN, YOU KNOW THAT MILD CRAMPING IS NORMAL
AFTER FERTILITY TREATMENTS.
I KNOW. BUT THIS--
YOUR BETA h.C.G. IS FINE.
YOUR OS IS CLOSED. THERE'S NO BLEEDING.
THERE'S NO DISCHARGE.
IT'S TOO EARLY TO SEE ANYTHING ON THE ULTRASOUND,
BUT YOUR-- YOUR TESTS WERE NORMAL.
YOU'RE SCARED. THAT--THAT'S ALL.
(chuckles)
OH. (laughs)
OH, GOD. UH, I'M THAT PERSON.
I'M THE CRAZY PATIENT WHO FREAKS OUT EVERY 15 MINUTES
AND PULLS YOU AWAY FROM YOUR LIFE.
I'M SO SORRY.
COME ON NOW. NO NEED TO APOLOGIZE.
NO, I DO. I'M SO EMBARRASSED. OH. (chuckles)
I'M NOT THIS FRAGILE PERSON. REALLY, I'M NOT.
IT'S JUST--
DANNY'S AWAY, AND THIS IS OUR FIFTH TIME TRYING.
AND NO MATTER HOW HARD I TRY TO RELAX,
I'M JUST... WAITING.
FOR WHAT?
(sighs deeply)
(voice breaks) TO LOSE THE PREGNANCY.
LAST TIME I MADE IT 12 WEEKS,
WHICH WAS A BIG IMPROVEMENT OVER FOUR,
BUT NINE MONTHS-- THAT'S AN ETERNITY.
AND AFTER SO MANY... (sighs)
FAILURES...
I JUST FEEL LIKE THE ODDS ARE AGAINST ME.
NO, MEGAN, WE--WE TALKED ABOUT THIS. RIGHT?
WITH EVERY ROLL OF THE DICE,
YOUR CHANCES OF THIS ONE STICKING ACTUALLY IMPROVE.
REALLY?
YES.
YOU HAVE TO BE PATIENT
AND HAVE A LITTLE FAITH.
(woman speaking indistinctly over p.a.)
AND NOT BE HYSTERICAL. (laughs)
THAT WOULD HELP, TOO. (chuckles)
OKAY. NOW THERE'S NO MEDICAL REASON
WHY I SHOULDN'T DISCHARGE YOU.
I-I'M NOT READY TO-- I-I JUST FEEL BETTER
HERE IN THE HOSPITAL. IS THAT CRAZY?
NO. THE HOSPITAL'S A SAFE PLACE TO BE.
WOULD YOU MIND--I MEAN, I KNOW YOU'RE BUSY AND EVERYTHING,
BUT COULD YOU STAY JUST-- JUST FOR A LITTLE WHILE?
JUST UNTIL I'M SURE THAT EVERYTHING'S OKAY?
(door closes)
(footsteps approach)
HEY, BABE.
HEY. I'M SORRY I'M LATE.
YOU WERE LATE TWO HOURS AGO,
BUT YOU'RE IN TIME FOR LEFTOVERS.
I WAS AT THE HOSPITAL WITH MEGAN.
WHAT, DID SHE MISCARRY AGAIN?
NO. NOTHING'S WRONG WITH HER MEDICALLY.
SHE WAS SCARED, THOUGH, THOUGHT SHE WAS LOSING HER BABY,
SO I STAYED WITH HER.
YOU WERE PAGED OVER SIX HOURS AGO.
YEAH, WELL, FEAR ISN'T LIKE PAIN, HONEY.
YOU CAN'T JUST MEDICATE SOMEONE AND LEAVE IN FIVE MINUTES.
WELL, YEAH, YOU ALSO CAN'T SIGN UP FOR NINE MONTHS OF THIS.
THAT'S WHAT I DO, ESPECIALLY IN MEGAN'S CASE,
WITH HER HUSBAND GONE AS MUCH AS HE IS.
SHE NEEDS THE EXTRA SUPPORT.
I THINK THAT THE LEVEL OF DOCTORING THAT MEGAN NEEDS
IS BORDERING ON UNREASONABLE.
THAT'S NOT FAIR. SHE'S MAKING UP EXCUSES TO SEE YOU.
SHE THOUGHT SOMETHING WAS WRONG. WELL, SOMETHING'S DEFINITELY WRONG.
PART OF IT'S IN HER HEAD AND PART OF IT'S ON YOU.
WHAT THE HELL DOES THAT MEAN?
OKAY, YOU SERIOUSLY CANNOT SEE HOW YOU ARE COMPLICIT IN THIS?
YOU ARE SO KIND AND SO AVAILABLE THAT YOU MAKE IT EASY
FOR PATIENTS TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF YOU.
LOOK, IF I CAN'T BE THERE FOR MY PATIENTS,
IF I CAN'T GIVE THEM ALL THAT I GOT,
THEN I MIGHT AS WELL GIVE UP MEDICINE.
OKAY, BUT YOU CANNOT BE THERE FOR ALL OF THEM ALL THE TIME.
YOU'VE GOT TO SET BOUNDARIES BECAUSE THEY WON'T.
STOP. STOP TRYING TO TELL ME HOW TO PRACTICE MEDICINE,
HOW TO RUN MY LIFE,
BECAUSE I WAS DOING JUST FINE BEFORE YOU CAME ALONG.
BUT I AM HERE NOW, AND THE CHOICES THAT YOU MAKE--
THEY AFFECT OUR LIFE.
I MEAN, HOW IS IT THAT YOU CAN COMMIT
TO THESE WOMEN YOU BARELY KNOW AND YOU CAN'T COMMIT TO ME?
I'M A FERTILITY SPECIALIST.
THE WOMEN THAT COME TO ME-- WHEN THEY GET PREGNANT,
IT'S MY JOB TO SEE THEM THROUGH THE NINE MONTHS,
AND I WON'T STOP DOING THAT, NO MATTER HOW JEALOUS
OR INSECURE OR CRAZY YOU GET.
W-- THIS IS NOT ABOUT ME.
REALLY? BECAUSE EVERYTHING ELSE IS.
NICE JOB PISSING OFF THE ENTIRE WORLD.
NO, JUST THE WOMEN.
REALLY? YOU GONNA GRAB ELI
AND TAKE HIM TO A CIGAR BAR THEN?
LOOK, I GOT IT FROM ANGE, I GOT IT FROM ADDISON.
I DON'T NEED IT FROM YOU.
WELL, ADDISON'S RIGHT.
BALANCE, BOUNDARIES-- THOSE THINGS MATTER.
YOU ALWAYS GAVE TOO MUCH AT THE OFFICE.
LOOK, YOU CANNOT BLAME THE DRUGS ON ME. I KNOW.
OKAY, 'CAUSE I WAS THERE ALL THE TIME,
UNTIL I COULDN'T WATCH YOU DESTROY YOURSELF ANYMORE.
I KNOW.
BUT WHAT I'M SAYING IS,
YOU DON'T HAVE TO AVOID GOING HOME ANYMORE.
THERE'S NO MORE DRUGS IN YOUR LIFE,
NO MORE TERROR,
NO MORE ME.
IT'S JUST THE WOMAN WHO LOVES YOU, HER KID,
AND OUR KID.
THERE'S NOTHING IN YOUR WAY EXCEPT YOU.
(elevator bell dings)
(doors open)
(woman speaking indistinctly over p.a.)
(people speaking indistinctly)
YOU LOOK LIKE CRAP.
THANKS. (doors close)
I JUST MEANT--
NO, I FEEL LIKE CRAP, SO IT'S FITTING.
YOU KNOW, ONE OF THE MANY THINGS THAT I'VE LEARNED THIS PAST YEAR
IS TO BE A VERY GOOD LISTENER.
I APPRECIATE IT, BUT THE ELEVATOR RIDE IS
WAY TOO SHORT FOR WHAT I'VE GOT GOING ON.
(ding)
JAKE.
(people speaking indistinctly)
DR. SHEPHERD.
(people continue speaking indistinctly)
(clicks button)
(doors close)
(ding)
(woman speaking indistinctly over p.a.)
SEE YOU.
(speaking indistinctly)
YOU KNOW, ONE OF THE MANY THINGS I'VE LEARNED OVER THE PAST YEAR
SINCE I JOINED THE PRACTICE IS THAT APPARENTLY,
EVERYONE ELSE'S BUSINESS IS MINE,
SO I'M JUST GONNA SAY IT--
JAMES IS A GOOD GUY.
OKAY.
AMELIA, MY DAUGHTER IS DATING HER COLLEGE PROFESSOR,
AND WHILE I WISH SHE WASN'T DATING AT ALL,
IF SHE HAS TO BE, THEN, WELL,
I THINK SOMEONE LIKE JAMES IS A PRETTY GOOD CATCH.
WELL, WHY DON'T YOU DATE HIM THEN?
I'M SPOKEN FOR. I DON'T THINK OF HIM LIKE THAT.
YES, YOU DO. IT'S PRETTY OBVIOUS.
IT'S JUST--EVERYTHING'S GOOD NOW, YOU KNOW, AND I DON'T--
YOU DID ALL THAT WORK,
YOU'VE COME SO FAR, DON'T...
DON'T WALK AWAY FROM AN OPPORTUNITY.
YOU DESERVE TO BE HAPPY.
BE HAPPY, AMELIA.
(woman speaking indistinctly over p.a.)
(speaks indistinctly)
THIS WAS A BRILLIANT IDEA.
I'M SO GLAD I LISTENED TO YOU.
ANGELA'S YOUR DAUGHTER
AND IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN THE WORLD.
YOU AND I CAN RESUME FIGHTING AFTER DINNER,
BUT IN THE MEANTIME, LET'S JUST MAKE THE BEST OF IT.
SHALL WE? (cork pops)
THANKS AGAIN FOR HAVING US OVER.
YES, THANK YOU. NO, WE'RE JUST HAPPY
THAT YOU COULD MAKE IT ON SUCH SHORT NOTICE, RIGHT, HONEY?
YES, VERY HAPPY.
UM, SO, ELI,
ANGELA TELLS ME THAT YOU'RE A BIG BASKETBALL FAN, HUH?
AND SO IS JAKE.
OH, IS THAT RIGHT?
WELL, WE SHOULD CATCH A LAKERS GAME SOMETIME.
I THINK THEY HAVE A REAL SHOT AT WINNING IT ALL THIS YEAR.
YOU KNOW, I LIKE OKLAHOMA CITY.
THEY'RE YOUNG, FRESH, NO BAGGAGE.
HMM. BUT THE, UH, LAKERS HAVE THE VETERANS AND THE EXPERIENCE.
THAT'S IMPORTANT FOR A BALANCED TEAM.
BALANCE IS OVERRATED.
I THINK THE ROOKIES
ARE DOING FINE ON THEIR OWN. DAD.
(clicks tongue)
YOU KNOW, EXCUSE ME.
NO. UH...
LET THEM GO.
(sighs)
LOOK, UH,
I KNOW WHAT YOU'RE THINKING.
(clicks tongue) OH, I DOUBT THAT VERY MUCH.
ANGELA'S VERY SPECIAL TO ME.
SURE.
LOVELY YOUNG WOMAN WHO ADORES YOU,
WHO THINKS EVERY WORD OUT OF YOUR MOUTH IS WITTY AND CLEVER
BECAUSE SHE PROBABLY DOESN'T KNOW
YOU'VE BEEN USING THOSE SAME, OLD TIRED LINES
ON WOMEN YOUR AGE FOR DECADES.
YEAH, THAT'S GOTTA BE NICE.
I WASN'T LOOKING FOR AN EGO BOOST.
THEN WHAT ARE YOU LOOKING FOR?
BECAUSE THERE IS DEFINITELY SOMETHING WRONG HERE.
WHEN YOU FINISHED YOUR PhD, SHE WAS IN DIAPERS.
LOOK, I UNDERSTAND YOUR RESERVATIONS.
SHE'S YOUR DAUGHTER. YOU'RE PROTECTING HER.
BUT I'M NOT A BAD GUY.
OKAY, I WAS MARRIED TO A WOMAN MY AGE FOR 20 YEARS.
IT DIDN'T WORK OUT.
SO NOW YOU'VE DECIDED TO USE THE FEMALE STUDENT POPULATION
AS YOUR OWN PERSONAL DATING POOL?
I HAVE NEVER DATED A STUDENT BEFORE.
BUT... ANGELA IS...
KIND AND BRIGHT
AND BEAUTIFUL AND CURIOUS--
I KNOW HER ATTRIBUTES. I RAISED HER.
I LOVE HER.
YEAH, WELL, THAT'S TOO BAD.
'CAUSE THIS IS OVER.
I WON'T STOP SEEING YOUR DAUGHTER.
I'M NOT ASKING. I'M TELLING YOU.
THIS NEEDS TO END.
OR WHAT?
YOU DON'T WANT TO FIND OUT.
WHAT? I DIDN'T LOSE MY TEMPER.
SEMANTICS. THAT WAS A VERY THINLY VEILED THREAT.
OH, I MEANT IT.
I KNOW. PRETTY SURE HE DOES, TOO.
WOULD YOU WANT ME TO GIVE ANGE AWAY AT THEIR WEDDING?
WELL, I THINK THERE'S ANOTHER WEDDING TO CONSIDER BEFORE HERS.
I TOLD YOU, I DON'T WANT TO DISCUSS THAT WITH YOU.
LOOK, BABE, I... I GET IT.
IT'S HARD TO LET GO.
IT'S STILL EASIER THAN THE ALTERNATIVE.
WHICH IS?
HANGING ON TO SOMETHING THAT'S NO LONGER YOURS TO HANG ON TO.
I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.
SHE WON'T...
(sighs deeply) SHE WON'T MOVE.
DANA?
HEY.
DR. TURNER.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
RON WAS WORRIED ABOUT YOU.
SHE'S STILL HERE...
(sniffles) IN THIS ROOM.
(sniffles)
AND I NEED THAT.
HER RASPBERRY SHAMPOO...
(sniffles)
I CAN STILL SMELL IT ON THE PILLOWCASE.
AND THE SAND IN HER SHOES
FROM THE LAST TRIP WE TOOK TO THE BEACH.
(crying)
I WANT MY BABY BACK.
WHERE IS SARAH?
I WISH I COULD TELL YOU THAT SARAH WAS ALIVE AND OKAY
AND COMING HOME TOMORROW,
BUT I DON'T KNOW THAT.
NOBODY DOES.
AND I'M NOT SURE IF YOU WILL EVER BE ABLE TO GET CLOSURE.
(sniffles)
♪♪♪
BUT YOU TWO ARE STILL HERE,
SO YOU NEED TO LIVE.
(exhales deeply)
WE CAN'T MOVE ON.
I'M--I'M NOT SAYING MOVE ON.
I'M SAYING DON'T STAND STILL.
SARAH IS...
IS OUR WHOLE LIFE.
WE CAN'T JUST GIVE UP ON HER.
YOU'RE NOT GIVING UP.
YOU WILL NEVER GIVE UP.
YOU WILL NEVER STOP WAITING FOR SARAH TO RETURN.
AND IF SHE DOES COME BACK, THEN YOU'LL BE HERE,
TOGETHER,
A STRONGER FAMILY UNIT TO WELCOME HER
BACK TO THE FAMILY THAT SHE LOVES.
WHAT IF SHE DOESN'T?

MEGAN? WHAT'S--WHAT'S WRONG?
MEGAN?
I'M IN HERE. (groans)
OKAY, MEGAN,
TALK TO ME.
WHAT HURTS?
I STARTED CRAMPING REALLY BADLY.
I CAN'T SIT UP. MY HEAD IS THROBBING.
ALL RIGHT, WELL, THOSE SOUND LIKE SYMPTOMS
FROM THE PROGESTERONE SHOT I GAVE YOU YESTERDAY.
NO. (crying) IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN.
I'M LOSING THE BABY.
WELL, YOU'RE NOT RUNNING A FEVER.
HAVE YOU BEEN SPOTTING AT ALL? I DON'T THINK SO.
ALL RIGHT, WELL, DO ME A FAVOR. I WANT YOU TO TAKE
A COUPLE OF DEEP BREATHS.
MM, THAT'S NOT GONNA HELP. PLEASE, FOR ME.
(exhales and inhales deeply)
MM. IT'S NOT WORKING.
MEGAN, PLEASE. KEEP BREATHING.
JUST SLOWLY. READY?
(inhales deeply)
(exhales deeply)
(inhales deeply)
I'M STARTING TO FEEL BETTER.
MEGAN, YOU...
YOU CAN'T KEEP DOING THIS.
IT'S NOT GOOD FOR YOU OR THE BABY.
WHAT IF THIS IS LIKE THE OTHERS? WHAT IF I CAN'T CARRY TO TERM?
YOU HAVE TO STOP THINKING THAT WAY, OKAY?
I NEED YOU TO STAY FOCUSED ON HOW STRONG YOU ARE
AND HOW YOUR BABY IS FEEDING OFF OF THAT STRENGTH.
MEGAN, YOU'RE A FIGHTER,
AND I WILL BE BY YOUR SIDE THE ENTIRE WAY, ALL RIGHT?

YOU'RE HERE FOR ME IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT.

I-I KNOW I DIDN'T HAVE AN APPOINTMENT,
BUT I JUST WANTED TO CLEAR THE AIR.
IT'S GOOD YOU CAME IN, ACTUALLY.
WHAT'S THIS?
A LIST OF DOCTORS.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND.
I THINK IT'S BEST THAT YOU CHOOSE SOMEONE ELSE
TO, UH, SEE YOU THROUGH YOUR PREGNANCY.
BUT... (huffs)
YOU SAID YOU'D BE BY MY SIDE.
THAT WAS BEFORE I REALIZED
THAT MY LEVEL OF CARE WAS BEING MISINTERPRETED.
YOU LET ME KNOW WHO YOU CHOOSE, AND I'LL SEND OVER THE FILE.
NOW I HAVE A...
I HAVE ANOTHER APPOINTMENT.

MEGAN. HOW ARE YOU FEELING?
(indistinct conversations)
YOUR BOYFRIEND MADE A PASS AT ME LAST NIGHT.
THAT IS NOT TRUE. I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY OTHER PATIENTS HE'S DONE THIS TO,
BUT I BET I'M NOT THE FIRST. MEGAN!
HE KISSED ME.
MEGAN, DON'T DO THIS.
WHERE'S YOUR HUSBAND?
IS HE OUT OF TOWN ON BUSINESS AGAIN?
IS HE EVER HERE?
YOU DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT ME. DOES HE EVEN WANT A BABY?
STOP IT. STOP--
I'M SORRY. I AM SO SORRY THAT THINGS HAVE NOT
TURNED OUT THE WAY THAT YOU PLANNED,
BUT THAT DOES NOT GIVE YOU THE RIGHT
TO BLAME THE ONE MAN WHO HAS TRIED TO HELP YOU.
YOU DO NOT GET TO LIE ABOUT HIM, NOT EVER.

COME ON IN. IT'S OPEN.
OKAY, THAT'S MILDRED. I WANT YOU TO DO A GUY A SOLID

WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?
ANGE, THIS--
LOOK, THIS IS NOT A GREAT TIME. ALL RIGHT?
I DON'T CARE.
YOU ARE MY ONLY FAMILY,
THE MAN I LOOKED UP TO MY WHOLE LIFE,
AND NOW YOU'RE JUST BEING-- YOUR FATHER.
ALL RIGHT, I'M BEING YOUR FATHER.
I LOVE YOU, BUT I DON'T LIKE ELI, NOT FOR YOU.
TELL ME ELI MISUNDERSTOOD.
TELL ME YOU DIDN'T SAY THOSE THINGS TO MY BOYFRIEND.
LOOK, IT'S MY JOB TO KEEP YOU SAFE.
BY THREATENING HIS LIFE?
IS THIS A BAD TIME?

I AM SO SORRY. I-I'LL DO ANYTHING TO MAKE IT RIGHT.
I-I'LL CALL MILDRED.

PLEASE, JUST...
SAY SOMETHING.
IT'S GOING TO BE FINE.

ABOUT EVERYTHING.
I'M SORRY, TRULY.
I FULLY ACCEPT ALL OF YOUR APOLOGIES,
BUT I TRULY BELIEVE THAT EVERYTHING IS GOING TO BE FINE,
BECAUSE HENRY IS MY SON, AND YOU ARE THE LOVE OF MY LIFE,
AND WE'RE SUPPOSED TO BE A FAMILY,

I KNOW SHE WILL. I JUST...
I JUST KNOW IT.
YOU DIDN'T COME THIS MORNING,

YOU CAN'T JUST SHOW UP HERE.
I CAME TO SAY GOOD-BYE.
YOU DON'T NEED ME ANYMORE.
NO.

DON'T GO.
SHE LOVES YOU.
SHE TRUSTS YOU.
SHE'S COMMITTED TO YOU.
