So, we are back
together. [ Chuckles ]

[ School bell rings ]

Previously on "A Million
Little Things"...

Rome: We're gonna
walk up on the stage,

and I'm gonna tell them
that my film about racism

was inspired by their
poor excuse for a Dean.

I know when you were younger,

I could have done a better
job of protecting you.

I will never make
that mistake again.

Nothing would make me happier
than us working together.

Regina: I don't just want
your money. I want you.



I'm not sure how much
I want to have happen.

How about I just
follow your lead?

I had feelings for you when
you asked me to homecoming.

I just didn't realize
it at the time.

Maggie: Thank you
for squeezing me in.

Is everything okay?

I wanted to talk to you about

me having a baby.

Um, I-I was able to
get pregnant last year,

uh, but the timing just wasn't
right for so many reasons.

As you know, it was
too close to my chemo,

and...

I just wasn't ready.

But now, I'm in
a different place



with a different person.

Um... uh, Gary, actually.

Oh. [ Chuckles ]

That makes me so happy.

Oh. [ Chuckles ]

I was always
rooting for you two.

Really? Thanks.

Um, yeah.

So, pregnancy is something that
I'm starting to think about,

and I just...

I'm here because I
wanted to know if, um

if this home could
entertain guests.

Well, the short answer is yes.

Because your cancer
was estrogen negative,

I'm not worried about
pregnancy-related complications.

Okay.

No longer radioactive.

That's... That's great.

Yes, but even though you are
a healthy 30-year-old woman,

with all the chemotherapy
you've been through,

you may not have 10 years
of ovulatory life left.

Simply put...

I'm running out of time.

Regina: Grande iced
Americano, soy milk,

two pumps of caramel, Splenda,

and an everything
bagel, lightly toasted.

That sounds delicious,

but I'm gonna hit the
dining hall at Sussex

before we screen our film today.

I'm telling you,

those prep schools have
the best tater tots.

Coffee ain't for you, playa.

An order that complicated
can only mean one thing.

My mom's coming over.

Yeah.Oh.

I have to tell
her that Dad and I

are officially in
business together.

You might want to take
a preemptive Advil.

She practically lost her
mind when she walked in

on you and Flo cooking together,

and Flo's just my
dad's girlfriend.Yeah.

I had no idea your folks
hated each other that much.

Oh, yeah. It's one of the main
reasons they got divorced.

[ Chuckles ]It didn't help that
a few months after they split,

he got together with Angie.

Which might explain
why Shelly Photoshopped

the two of them out of
all of our wedding photos.

Oh, that's cold.

And that's why I
have to talk to her.

For too long, our family policy

has been to not
discuss anything.

That has to change.

You know what? I don't know
what size that coffee is,

but might want to
make it a venti.

[ Chuckles ] Good call.

[ Clicks tongue ]

Alright, have fun
showing your movie.

[ Smooches ]

Enjoy those tater tots.

Oh, you know I will.

[ Door opens, closes ]

Hey, read this.

What is it?

It's my speech for
after the screening.

Dean Dennings won't
know what hit him.

♪♪

What's the point of
a reunion, anyway?

Oh, well, um, you know,
it's an opportunity

to show all your old classmates
how successful you are

and rub it in their faces.

[ Chuckles ]

So, somewhere around 2050,

I get to brag to Tommy Johnson

about being the first
surgeon on the moon?

Exactly.

And I think that
astronaut doctors

have to know their fractions,

so get cracking
on that homework.

Joo Hee: Come on, Theo.
Breakfast is ready.

You know, Randy Kwan's mother
say he'll be at reunion.

Mom, I barely knew
Randy in high school.

Besides, Greta and I
have a-a bunch of people

we want to catch up with.

Greta Strobe?

Mm-hmm.

[ Speaking Korean ]

No, Molly McCabe
was a troublemaker.

She almost got expelled
like five times.

Greta happens to be a very
in-demand tattoo artist.

I don't understand why someone
would ruin their body like that.

[ Sighs ]

♪♪

Gary: Dan, what
happened? Where's Colin?

You brought home the wrong dog!

[ Chuckles ] Yeah, right.

You are not getting me today.

Seriously? You two are
still playing Made-Ya-Look?

I thought you just
did that with Theo,

when Eddie said he wasn't
allowed any more screen time.

Yeah, that's how it started.

Then I got Maggie, again...

Mm-hmm... and again.

And now she's taking
it to another level.

Yeah, I may have convinced
his barber to make him look

in the mirror after his haircut.

Trust between a man and his
barber should never be broken.

He shaves the back of
my neck with a blade

that could decapitate me.

Well, then you're lucky all I
had him do is make you look.

You know, it really
concerns me that two

of the most important
adults in my life

have nothing better
to do with their time

than to play a game
intended for children.

That's a loser's mindset, Dan.

It's like Maggie said, it's all
about getting the other person

to drop their guard
so that you can...

Hey.

Is that a hickey?

Nice try, Mendez.

[ Cellphone vibrates ]

Oh, hi, Cam. How are you?

Made ya look.

It's just too easy.

Hello?

Yo. Where are you
rushing off to?

I want to get in an ab
workout before Milo and I go

to our friend Sarah's party,

which I still need a ride to.

Yeah, you know the deal.

First you gotta walk
Colin six blocks.

I did.

Really?

You sure you wanna
stick to that?

Because I put this
locator on his collar

after he got out last time,

which means I just tracked
the whole half a block

that you walked him.

I'll still give you
a ride to the party,

but if he takes a
dump on that rug,

you're cleaning it up.

Deal.

Do you wanna join me
for the ab workout?

I'd rather babysit
Darcy's new kid.

By the way, she had the kid.

Awesome.

♪♪

"The fact that Sussex promoted
a man like Dean Dennings,

who turned a blind eye to such
an egregious racist incident

just confirms this
institution stands

on a foundation of
revisionist history."

Damn. I thought you just
wanted to call him out,

not burn the whole place down.

When I found that "Whites Only"
sign on the water fountain,

I went to that man for help.

He told me to forget about
it, "just let it go."

And the mere fact that
he's still at Sussex

all these years later
needs to be addressed.

'Cause until it is, it's
not just about Dennings.

It's about the
entire institution.

Look, I get it.

I'm all for speaking
truth to power,

but have you thought
about your friend, Dre,

and what it could do to the
Black students who go there?

I'm doing this for those kids.

And the kids who came
before me and after me

that went through the same
thing that I went through

with this place.

It's the right thing to do.

And is that why you
didn't mention it to Gina?

I didn't mention it to
Gina 'cause I don't need

people questioning me
like you are right now.

I'm not saying this because
I'm worried about Dennings.

I'm not even worried
about the school.

I'm worried about you.

You've been going
through a lot lately,

and I don't know that
this is gonna help.

Oh, so you're saying
forget about it,

"Just... Just let it go."

No, that's not what I'm saying.

Good. Because we
leave in a half-hour.

♪♪

Gary: Oh, there he is!

Still wearing the clothes
he had on yesterday,

doing the roll of shame.

I take it you and Anna
had quite the night.

You got me. [ Chuckles ]

I'm gonna go sleep it off.

That's my boy.

Proud of you, man.

Eddie: You're making it weird.

And where are you going?

[ Chuckles ] Yeah,
like I'm telling you.

You are not gonna
Make-Me-Look out in the wild.

Wow.

She's just too
smart for us, Colin.

[ Sighs ]

Mm.

That's my Bloom.

Always one step ahead.

Always.

Oh, honey, I love this.

Right? At first,
I was skeptical,

but this truck has
everything I need.

And the best part is it
keeps my overhead down,

so I won't be struggling to
cover the rent every month

like I did at Someday.

Don't be fooled if you
think this is gonna be

less work than Someday.

You are gonna need more help.

Right.

So, uh, Mom

that's not all I wanted
to talk to you about.

Uh, when I was down
in Miami, I, uh...

I saw Dad. Oh.

And he actually found time for
you between rounds of golf?

Sorry.

How are he and Angie?

Actually, Angie left him.

What?

Yeah.

And I think it's
really changed him.

[ Scoffs ][ Knock on door ]

I'll believe that when I see it.

[ Door opens ]Ronald: Hey, baby. I
know we're supposed to meet later,

but my graphics guy
sent over the artwork,

couldn't wait to
share it with you.

Regina: Oh, Dad...

Shelly.

Artwork? What's
he talking about?

Well, I-I was about to... We're
going into business together.

Oh.

Oh. [ Chuckles ]

So, that's what
this is all about.

The out-of-the-blue invitation,
the everything bagel,

the coffee that
was almostperfect.

You were sweetening me up.

You thought I'd be upset
about you working with him,

and I have to say...

I'm thrilled.

Wait, what?

I'm glad you two are doing this.

I couldn't be happier.

Now, let's go see
this food truck.

[ Chuckles ]

Um...

[ Door opens ]

♪♪

[ Inhales deeply ]

God, it smells exactly
like it did 25 years ago.

Like B.O. and desperation.

Some things never change.

Yeah. Like your mom
giving me the stink eye.

I'm really sorry about that.

Don't be. I have been
scandalizing parents

since the late '90s.

[ Chuckles ]

You know, I-I do plan
to tell her about me.

And us.

I'm just... working up to it.

[ Chuckles ]

Hey, believe me, I get it.

It took me a long time to work
up the nerve to tell my family.

You should take as
much time as you need.

Thank you.

Now let's go see
if the cafeteria

still smells like Teen Spirit.

♪♪

Dude, looks like she's
headed to Longwood.

Probably that big Target, right?

I can see it now... Maggie's
just going about her day.

"Ooh, what's that?
Oh, that looks cool."

And then... bam!

Runs into a mannequin
holding this.

That's cool.

Yeah. After you kidnap her,

throw her in your van,
can I get her apartment

so I don't have to
live with you anymore?

Wow.

Mean humor doesn't
usually work for you,

but that was genuinely funny.

What's going on, Ed?

[ Sighs ]

I-It's nothing.

Something happen with Anna?

It's more like
what didn't happen.

Let's just say

that the train pulled out
of the station last night,

but wasn't able to
reach its destination.

Ah.

Train arrived early, huh?

No.

It didn't make it to
the station at all.

You just said it
left the station.

The first station.

Wait, there's two stations?

No wonder the train
pulled out early.

No, the train didn't...

[ Inhales sharply ]

I couldn't finish, okay?

Neither could she.

Ah.

You know, just when I think

I have finally adjusted
to my situation...

Did you talk to your doctor?

After the accident,
she prescribed me

you know...

Yeah.

But I never needed
them with Katherine.

And last night, by
the time I realized.

I... needed a little
extra staying power,

it was too late.

How'd you leave things
with her this morning?

We had a lot of
awkward conversation

over frozen waffles.

Then I left.

We're supposed to go to a
concert tonight, but now...

I don't even know.

Alright, in my experience...

Which, as you know, is vast...

I find that honesty is a
hell of an aphrodisiac.

So, why won't you
talk to her, huh,

take one of your little
pills, see what happens?

I bet you'll be pitching
a tent just in time

for The J. Geils Band.

And he's back.

[ Chuckles ] Much like
The J. Geils Band,

I never left.

Seriously, thank you.

It is nice to be able to have a
mature conversation about this.

Well, I am the
epitome of maturity.

Ooh! Maggie's parking!

Okay. Alright.

I gotta go beat my
girlfriend at Made-Ya-Look.

[ Chuckles ]

Wow.

It's a pretty good turnout.

Yeah.

Hi.Woman: Hi. Welcome.

Oh, my God.

Wow. Someone grew up and
got their braces off.

[ Exhales sharply ]

I'm just saying, it's not too
late to change the speech.

Yeah, are you saying that
because it's what you believe,

or 'cause you just want
to be able to come back

and get more tater tots?

Why can't it be both?

Rome. Tyrell.

Hey, man. Thank you,
guys, for doing this.

Our kids are really looking
forward to seeing the film.

Man, we appreciate
you setting this up.

Hey, Mr. Washington.

Kendra, this is
Mr. Howard. This is Tyrell.

Kendra will be introducing you.

Kendra: Hi.Student:
Hi, Dean Dennings.

Rome Howard.

It's not every day we get a
big-time Hollywood director

on campus.

Can we get a few pictures?
Man: Of course. You got it.

You are a great example of
what a Sussex Prep education

You keep saying this

you would be here.

In fact, my mom texted me
three times today already.

Oh, I know. My mom's already

registering us at
Bed Bath & Beyond.

[ Chuckles ]

Yeah. It's weird to
be back here, huh?

Oh, after the number of times
I got caught smoking pot

in the activities hall bathroom,

I was surprised they
let me in.[ Chuckles ]

You, uh, wouldn't happen to

Randy Kwan.

I didn't know you had it in you.

Oh, I definitely have it in me.

Just ask this one. Greta was
at all my high school parties.

Yes, that's where some of my
favorite memories were made.

Do you remember when we went
pool hopping that one Halloween?

How could I forget?

I had my first kiss
with Molly McCabe

running between my pool
and Paul Mastriani's.

[ Chuckles ]Whatever
happened to Molly McCabe?

Oh, you're not
gonna believe this,

but she is a super successful
hedge fund manager now.

Huh. Molly McCabe
manages a hedge fund?

The girl who put laxatives
in the principal's coffee?

Uh... uh, allegedly.

[ Chuckles ] High school
her would be so disappointed

she turned out to
be such a square.

Oh, well, that's probably
true for all of us.

Remind me, Randy... How
many different "Amys"

did you hook up with at
your big post-prom party?

[ Snorts ] Shh, shh, there's,
like, two of them here, okay?

So...

You were there,
right, Katherine?

Uh... no, I-I think
I missed that one.

Ah, well, consider
yourself lucky.

Mastriani puked all over
my Air Jordan collection.

Oh, my God. I totally
remember that.

Yeah, you still wore those,
like, the rest of senior year.

[ Chuckles ] God,
I miss high school.

You were with Angie less than
a year after leaving Mom.

It's not hard to do the math.

Alright, first of all,

I didn't even meet Angie until
after your mom and I split up.

The truth is I left because your
mother was having an affair.

♪♪

We need to talk.

I know.

I'm sorry I let your
father get to me.

It's just... There's a
reason why we haven't spoken

all these years.

Does it have anything
to do with your affair?

Dad told me.

You let me believe my whole life

that Dad left us, that
he was the bad guy.

No. I never said that.

Maybe not, but you implied
it with your attitude

every time his name came up,

and all the while, you were
the one who was unfaithful.

Regina, it's not true.

I never cheated.

It's just what I let
your father believe.

What? Why?

Because at a certain
point in our marriage,

something changed with our

physical relationship.

I-I stopped wanting
to be intimate,

and at the time,

I didn't...

I didn't understand
what was going on.

But with lots of therapy,

it finally made sense.

When you were, I don't
know, about five,

uh, my brother, he
moved back to Boston.

And his presence and
seeing him regularly

just... it just...

Of course, I...

I didn't put the
two things together.

I-I just know that...
That after he came back,

the... the thought of
having sex with anyone

made me physically ill.

And the more your father
tried to figure it out,

about what was going on,
the more I felt trapped.

And I-I-I had no idea
how to talk about it.

And then, one
morning after church,

he saw me laughing
with Frank Harris.

The choir director?

And I hadn't laughed like
that with your father in ages,

and he got the wrong idea.

And that night, he...

He asked me if I was
having an affair.

And... And you
just went with it?

Honey, you have to understand,
we were just so unhappy.

And we were fighting every day,

and I just figured that it
was only a matter of time

before he left me
for someone else.

Oh.

[ Sniffles ] I am
so sorry, baby.

It's not your fault.

[ Exhales sharply ]

But you know what, Mom?

It's not Dad's fault, either.

I made such a mess of it,

to a position of leadership

and has had a profound
impact on my life.

And that person is.

Vice Principal Dre Washington.

Dre not only gave
me the opportunity

to screen my documentary,

but he also gave me a chance to
learn something about change.

Before we can make
change in the world,

we must be willing to
make changes in ourselves.

There you are. I've been
looking all over for you.

What's this?

The President's Award.

Hmm.

Is this a bad time to
tell you I have no idea

what the President's Award is?

I got it our senior year
at the big assembly?

Is this a bad time to tell
you I skipped the assemblies?

[ Exhales sharply ]

Of course you did.

You were too busy having
the time of your life

with Randy and Molly,

while I was trying to
be the model student.

So I could get this.

And you did it. That's amazing.

My mom was really proud of me.

You know, to her, it meant
that I'd really been accepted.

I spent four years here, and
I have nothing to show for it.

You're right.

Your thriving law
practice is a total waste.

[ Scoffs ]

Hey.

Everything you are and
everything you've been through,

they're the reasons I've
fallen for you all over again.

That's really sweet.

But I feel like I
can't leave high school

until I do at least
one bad thing.

Okay.

Cover me.

Wait, what are you doing?

I'm taking this with me.

[ Grunts ]

I don't think
that's a good idea.

Come on! Katherine...

Oh, my God.

Greta: Be careful.

Let's get out of here! Come on!

Ah.It's a pool party,
and I don't want Milo

and everyone else to see
me with my shirt off.

The guy Milo kissed?
He's totally ripped.

He has, like, a
16-pack, you know?

And then there's me.

I've been working
out like crazy,

but how can I possibly compete?

You can't.

When is Gary getting home?

[ Chuckles ] Hear me out.

This isn't a competition.

This is about how you
feel about yourself.

Well, right now, I feel
pretty bad about myself.

Alright, I get that.

And to be honest, I'm going
through something similar

with Anna right now.

But I think what you and
I both need to realize

is that the most attractive
thing in the world

is being comfortable
with who you are.

Oh. Oh, yeah. Sure.

Easy peasy.

Okay, hold up.

When I look at you,

I see a kid who has an
excellent sense of humor,

who absolutely crushed it
as Danny Zuko in "Grease,"

and who dropped everything
to be there for his mom

when she needed him.

Now, can that other
knucklehead compete with that?

Huh?

[ Exhales sharply ]

I'll go get my suit.

[ Sighs ]

Dr. Anderson: Okay, see
this area right here?

It looks like a spooky
game of wack-a-mole.

[ Chuckles ] Or the, uh,
negative image of Swiss cheese.

[ Chuckles ] Well,
I'm very happy

to report that these
are actually your eggs.

[ Exhales sharply ]

Yeah, and this
month, you have nine.

A perfectly normal
count for your age.

So the party's still
raging in there?

[ Chuckles ] It is.

[ Laughter ]

But when is, um...
When's last call?

From what I'm seeing,
you don't need to rush.

I'd say as long as
you start trying

in the next three to five
years, you'll be fine.

Okay. Yeah.

If I could give you
one piece of advice...

Sure.

Pressure never helps
anyone get pregnant.

So, start trying before
you have to start trying

so you can just have some fun.

Did you hear that?

The doc here is prescribing fun.

[ Chuckles ]

Um, there is just one more
thing I should show you.

Boom! No way.

Made-Ya-Look![ Exhales sharply ]

Oh! That's not even poss...

I did...

I'm not even mad. I'm impressed.

You're just... You're that good.

I know. And you,
Doctor, accomplice.

Did you even go
to medical school?

I promise you,
I'm a real doctor.

Uh-huh. [ Scoffs ]

After what he just did
to me, he better be.

[ Laughter ]

Mr. Howard.

Congratulations on the film.

It was impressive.

Thank you.

You know, I'd like to
think in some small way,

I can take some credit
for your success.

You don't get to take
credit for my success.

I succeeded in
spite of this place,

not because of it.

Let me ask you a question.

My senior year,

what happened with
the water fountain?

I don't know what
you're talking about.

Let me be more clear.

What happened with
the water fountain?

♪♪

The kids should never
have put the sign up.

But that was a long time ago.

It wasn't just the sign.

It was what you did after.

I tried to help you.

Blowing that incident
out of proportion

would have only put a
target on your back.

Kids pranked each other
all the time back then.

I didn't want you to
be the one singled out

because you couldn't
take a joke.

Nothing about a
"whites only" sign

on a water fountain is funny.

It's racist.

And you have no idea how hard
you actually made it for me.

It's one thing for a
couple of stupid teenagers

to do what they did,
but it is another thing

for a grown man to
tell me to turn away,

as if that is the way
I should live my life.

As if what they
did wasn't wrong.

I've been fighting
that suggestion

for the last 30 years.

So, any self-celebrating you do

about how you've made a
difference in kids' lives,

know that you have.

And you should be
ashamed of yourself.

honest, I wasn't sure

that you were
gonna come tonight.

[ Sighs ]

No. No, no, no. No.

It's okay. [ Chuckles ]

[ Sighs ]I actually wanted to
talk to you about last night.

Look, ever since my injury,

my, um... functionality
has been different,

and it's something that
I'm still getting used to.

I should have been more
communicative about that.

But I guess in the
moment, I was nervous.

[ Sighs ]

Thank you for saying that,
because, Eddie, I was...

I was really nervous, too,

and I didn't know
what to say or do.

How could you?

I didn't speak up because
I was embarrassed.

After last night, I did
some research of my own,

and I read that for
some guys with injuries,

it's totally normal to use...
