Brothers & Sisters (2006–2011): Season 4, Episode 2 - Breaking the News - full transcript

Oh, no, no. Shes told me that she
would be able to squeeze me in.

Oh, sorry. Uh, Kitty. Kitty McCallister.

I was wondering also if maybe you
could tell me if my test results came in.

She told me that they would be in today.

Kern knows.

No, you're right. Of course. I'm sorry.

I'll... I'll call back later. Thank you.

- It's unbelievable.
- I'm sorry, what'd you say?

Kevin just called me when I was out on my run.

Governor Kern knows about the heart attack.

- You're kidding.
- Somebody's got my medical records.



I mean, three months ago, we were telling every
news organization it was a minor arrhythmia.

Well, I don't know.

What are you what are you
what are you gonna do, Robert?

Sometimes medical situations
are difficult to talk about.

Kitty, you're a pundit.

You know what kind of narrative
they're gonna write with this.

"Senator McCallister misled us with a heart attack.

He's untrustworthy, not to mention the fact
that he could drop dead at any moment.

No, no, no, no, don't you worry, darling.

Nobody's gonna be dropping dead
around here anytime soon.

No, not yet.

But this is exactly the kind of thing that could
derail this campaign before it even starts,

which is probably okay with you.

Oh, you know what, Robert?
Please don't start that.



- That that's just not fair.
- Sorry. I just have a lot on my mind.

so Shat are you gonna do?

Well, I've gotten the Governor to
agree to meet me this morning.

No shots have been fired, and I'm hopeful I
can come to some sort of an agreement.

And she's not the only one
with opposition research.

You know, I should've just told the
truth, the minute I left the hospital.

I don't know what I was thinking.

You know, I was, uh, I was just calling the doctor.

Oh, I thought you said he was okay.

He's fine. He's fine. He is.

- You want to go see your daddy?
- Hey...

- There you go, baby.
- Hey, big boy.

Wish me luck today.

I know it's a little over the top, but I'm thinking
of making steak and eggs for breakfast.

- How do you want yours?
- Bloody.

Wait a minute. I've seen that look before.

What look?

The guy in the movie in the loin cloth
with a bone through his nose.

Just promise me you'll think before you speak.

Don't say anything you're gonna regret.

Do you know who works for Governor Kern now?

Travis March. Do you know what he used to do?

He used to help run Robert's presidential campaign.

I know exactly what I'm gonna say
to the mercenary little bitch.

He probably went to the hospital
and stole Robert's chart himself.

"Bitch"? You're off to a really good start.

You know what? He wears loafers with argyle socks.

What would you call him?

I don't know. European?

I just hope you know what you're doing.

Oh, yeah. We're prepared.

Hope to put an end to it this morning.

Oh, and if it does go smoothly, I thought
we could go to Lucques for dinner tonight.

Doug and Barry are gonna be there.
They got a table on the patio.

Last time we hung out with them,

you said it was like chewing on chili peppers
with a mouth full of canker sores.

Yeah, you know, I... I meant that
in the best possible way.

Wait a minute. The patio?

They're bringing their baby, aren't they?

I... I don't know. Maybe.

Well, she is kind of adorable.
She's still got that new baby smell.

Kevin, I am so on to you.

I said I don't want to be pressured
about the whole surrogacy thing.

I'm not pressuring.

I... I'm nudging.

- I don't want to talk about the baby thing right now.
- Fine.

No more baby talk. Promise.

- Won't even coo in your ear
- Thank you.

And next time you feel like bullying someone,
save it for your friend in the argyle socks.

It's gonna get soggy.

Uh, yeah. You know, it's Granola.

- I'm not too worried about it.
- Oh, my!

They found a feral child in Michigan.
I didn't even know those were real.

Apparently, he was.

I'm sorry.

Your scaphoid.

Your radius, your ulna, your lunate.

Your ulna... I'm... I'm... you
know what Rebecca? I'm sorry.

That's a little distracting right now.

Well, I can't exactly clean quieter.

Well, I... I don't understand why
you have to do that right now.

You're right. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

You know, I'm not trying to be a jerk here.

But I can't memorize the bones of the wrist,

let alone graduate if I don't
have time to focus, okay?

So... is there is there anything else
you could be doing right now?

Like what? I'm just doing things that
people do around the house.

I'm sorry if I have a job where I can
actually finish my work at work.

To be honest, I wish I was
a little more inspired right now.

Uh, the the flowers.

Didn't you didn't you want to get the flowers,
you know, for our wedding?

I already did that, Justin. Forget it.

Maybe your mom can give you
more work or some I love you.

Hello, everyone.

Morning, Robert.

Travis, it's good to see you.
Governor, you should watch him.

He'll do anything to win, which is
uh, I guess why we're here.

To tell you the truth, Robert,
my first reaction was just concern.

It's always unpleasant to find out
that a friend has health problems.

Well, thank you.

If it makes you feel any better, I'm fine now.

Uh, according to my pedometer
I ran 4 1/2 miles this morning.

Impressive.

On that particular day, however,
you didn't run anywhere, did you?

No.

No, I spent most of that one in bed.

I assume you've had all this confirmed.

We have a copy of the doctor's report.

There are hipa laws against that.

Hey, it just landed on my desk.
I don't know how it got there.

I think what concerns me is that you were not
exactly truthful about what's in that report.

We didn't exactly lie, either.

That depends on what your
definition of a heart attack is.

What's your definition of an affair?

I thought my problems were
purely anecdotal, Robert.

We have receipts for airline tickets, hotel rooms
and some great pictures on my computer.

Mexico I imagine.

Looks like you're having a good time.

Just isn't with your husband.

Now how'd you get those?

Landed on my desk.

So what? An affair is not gonna take us down.

And a heart attack has legs? Come on, Travis.

Sex fuels the media. You know that.

Look, this is an uncomfortable
conversation for both of us.

I think it's safe to say that we both bring sufficient
weaponry to the table to destroy each other.

So if it's okay with you, I'd like to suggest
that we don't launch a first strike.

I mean, because personally, I'd like to
avoid mutually assured destruction.

It would create tense but stable peace.

Worked during the cold war.

- I have no problem with that.
- Good.

- Then it's settled.
- Settled.

Mom?

Hello.

Kitty.

I just, um...

I had to be in the city, and, uh, as I was driving,

I... I realized that I had some time to spare, so

I am so glad you're here.
Kitty, go swimming with me.

I've been swimming every day.

- Oh, you know, mom.
- It's so fabulous.

I can't... I can't. I... I have an appointment.

Well, at least have some of this fabulous water.

I put cucumbers and lemon. It makes
you drink more water every day.

Here, drink it down.

Um, the appointment that I have
is a doctor's appointment.

- Is everything okay?
- Yeah...

Uh, no.

I'm sorry that I didn't call.

And I would've gone to Sarah, but obviously,

she's still in France, and Kevin is busy.

- And I don't want to worry you
- Kitty, what's happening?

I don't know. I don't know.

I was just in the pediatrician's office
with Evan, and she said that I looked pale.

You know, which is my complexion, okay?

But whatever. She suggested that
I get a blood test.

Did they find something?

They think I'm sick.

What do you mean, "sick"?

She sent me to an oncologist.

- Oh, God, Kitty.
- Oh, no, no, don't don't, mom.

Don't freak out. They don't know anything yet.

I just have this, um, enlarged lymph node here.

And, they removed some of the
cells, I guess, with a needle,

and then and then she said that
some of the cells were irregular.

- What does that mean, "irregular"?
- They they don't know.

So they they sent them to a lab
to do some more tests.

And I'm supposed to go in today
to get the results, and...

all I keep thinking about is Evan and...

Kitty, stop it. Now stop it. Don't go there.

- They said they don't know everything.
- You're right. I know...

I'm sorry.

But anyway, they told me that they don't,
they don't want me to go alone.

Wait right here. It'll take me
one minute. Don't move.

I'll be ready in one minute.

Well, I told you, the numbers are not good.

Not good? We're hemorrhaging money.

Holly, the luxury market is down,
and our wines aren't cheap.

I tried calling Sarah last night,
but it's nine hours later in France.

She's not gonna be any help.

- She's over there touring high end vineyards.
- Yeah...

Just so you'll know, I have Ryan looking
into other venture streams.

- Ryan?
- Yes, Ryan.

And believe it or not, he's showing a
real talent for this kind of work.

- Hey. Oh, uh, am I interrupting anything?
- No no no...

Hi, sweetie.

Okay, so we've got 20, 000 gallons of
wine that we can't afford to age.

So what are we gonna do with the glut?

That's one of the things
I have Ryan looking into.

Well, can I help with anything?

Aren't you working on the market surveys?

Yeah, they're done.
They've been done for days.

That's actually why I'm here.
I'm dying to do more around here.

Well, Saul, why don't you bring her
up to speed with what's going on,

and we'll see what she can do?

Well, I told you, Holly, I already
have Ryan working on that.

I don't think that's a problem.

Ojai could use a little friendly competition.

I don't want to step on anyone's toes, mom.

Sweetie, if you want to get more involved,

you can't be worrying about
stepping on other people's toes.

Okay.

Saul, fill me in.

Would you like some gum?

Uh, no, thanks. I'm fine.

- I've got some calcium chews.
- No, thank you. Fine.

So does Robert even know
where you are right now?

Uh, no.

He's in the middle of a crisis.

But I know what you're thinking, and, mom,

I just... I just want to find out what's going on before
I have to talk about it to the rest of the world, okay?

Well, he's not exactly the rest of the world, sweet...

- Mom. Please don't do this, okay?
- All right.

- This is unpleasant enough as it is.
- Sorry. Okay...

I just don't...

Hi, Kitty.

Um, this is my mom.

- Hi, I'm Nora Walker.
- Hi, Joan Avadon.

I'm sorry to keep you waiting.

Please. It wouldn't be like a real
doctor if we didn't have to wait.

You know, it's not like you're
out there popping zits.

She's a little nervous.

I guess anybody who was sitting
in this chair would be absolutely.

- Would be nervous, right?
- Be very nervous.

Well, Kitty, um, I've looked over the pathology
report and your blood work, and, um...

it looks like you have lymphoma.

Okay.

It's cancer of the lymph nodes.

What kind of lymphoma? I run a
nonprofit home for cancer patients.

Well, this is a diffuse large B-cell tumor,
which is a non hodgkins lymphoma.

Okay.

So how do we proceed
radiation, chemotherapy?

Before we talk about treatment,
we need to get more information.

We need to find out if it's spread.

So that's why we need to get a C.
scan and a bone marrow biopsy,

both of which I'd like to schedule immediately.

Okay. We could just do that right away, right?

Yeah. Cathy can schedule that for you.

Listen, Kitty, I know you're overwhelmed.

And it's hard to take all of this in, but I really
need you to hear what I'm about to say.

This is a highly treatable and
potentially curable disease.

- Kitty?
- Oh, yeah. yes

Um, I need a bone marrow biopsy.

Okay.

You know, I've got a half a
chicken in the refrigerator.

I could wrap it up.
You could take it home with you.

Oh, mom, you keep saying the word
"home, " and I literally want to kill you.

I... I want to help you.

- I know you have a family waiting for you there.
- Oh, believe me.

That's all I'm thinking about.

You are gonna talk to him about this today?

Of course I'm gonna tell him.

It's just it's very hard

Well, I've got an idea.

How about if I take Evan for a few days?

- It would give you and Robert a chance to talk...
- Oh, I don't know.

I don't know, mom.

It's just that Robert just has
so much going on right now.

Kitty, you have cancer.

- I'm sure your husband can take time out...
- You don't know Robert.

Yes, I do. Don't be silly.

Okay, well, what am I supposed to say, mom?

Hi, honey. I have cancer.

How was your day? I just...

Oh, God. This is so crazy.

It's so weird.

I mean, what's gonna happen
when I lose my hair?

I love my hair.

It'll grow back.

What if it grows back curly?

Kitty, stop. Stop, stop, stop.

Okay.

If there's one thing I've learned
from my life, my marriage,

it's that facing the truth is so much easier than
all the time and energy it takes to run away from it.

Okay.

When do you want me to bring Evan over?

Okay, great. Thank you.

Your cardiologist is gonna
call back in a half an hour.

All right. We need to think about
getting all of this out there.

I had a hernia in '98.

Not that that would affect my being
governor, but people should know.

Wow, you really trust her.

Well, as a matter of fact,
I do, but if they have the information,

then eventually everybody's
gonna have the information.

I mean, we weren't gonna be
sitting on this forever.

Well, then we should do a focus group.
Test different ways of talking about it.

- Hi.
- Hi, honey. How are you?

- What's happening over there?
- Just working.

The president of the California
teachers association arrived.

You wanted to take a look at these
before you met with him.

I'm taking Evan for a few days.

- Wow. Does Kitty know?
- Ha ha. Very funny.

No, I... I just thought they
needed some time alone.

Oh, well, then you know what?
I might swing by.

I'll bring Scotty. Evan is kind of irresistible.

Fine. Whatever you want to do. That's just fine.

Uh, Kevin, how's Robert?

He's not working late tonight, is he?

Uh, no. It's pretty calm here for a change.

Oh, good. Look, don't get him all riled
up before he goes home.

He's he's unflappable.

Oh, I hope so.

I really hope so.

What's that supposed to mean?

Nothing.

- Who is that?
- Mom.

Tell her I said I hi.

- Oh, Robert says hi, but I gotta go...
- Kevin!

Kevin, make sure he gets home
at a reasonable time.

Okay, I'll try. Love you. Bye.

All right, I'm gonna go meet this
teacher, and then I'll be right back,

but I still have that tv thing, right?

Yeah, tomorrow.

Uh, energy security. You know, developing
alternative fuels, etc, etc.

Oh, my God.

She didn't wait a day.

- Let me get the volume.
- Don't bother.

I already know what they're saying.

Oh, um, go ahead.

- No, ladies first.
- Oh, thanks.

Um, you know, I was just talking to my mom,
and she was asking me to look into

I'm sorry. Rebecca, Dan's on the phone for you.

Um, you can just tell him I'll call him back.

I think he just wants to give you the
gallon count on our surplus wine.

Actually, I think those are for me. Thank you.

Tell him I already got 'em.

Um, yeah, that's kind of what
I wanted to talk to you about.

See, my mom asked me
to look into the glut, too.

Oh, she did?

Yeah.

So wait. Um, I'm confused.

Does that mean that she wants
us to work on it together?

Um. yeah, yeah.

I mean, well, I mean, I... I think that, you know,

they kind of want us to, you know,
come up with some ideas,

and then I don't know, maybe just choose.

Okay. So they want us to
play a little one on one.

- Is that a problem?
- No, no, bring it on.

This is a little weird, isn't it?

No, it's not weird.

Actually, I'll have him fax you
a copy of the numbers, too.

- Okay, cool. I'll see you later.
- See you later.

We have pictures.

This is the perfect opportunity to label her
as a two faced, republican philanderer.

- Let it go
- I'm... I'm sorry. I don't understand.

Why why can't we hit back?

Because is is exactly the kind
of politics that people hate.

Her turn, my turn.

I have enough trouble running against
an incumbent from my own party.

What do you care? You're
not the head of the R.N.C.

You're just trying to win an election.

And what do you suggest, that Kern and I keep
knocking each other till we're both lying in the dirt,

and let a democrat take the oath of office?

The general election is not for a year.

People will have forgotten your fight with Kern.

And you know what? Let
the party go down in flames.

It's people like you who should rise in its place.

And what am I, a guy that
wants to score political points'

cause I caught my opponent with her skirt up?

I still have to live with myself.

You know, when my family came to California,

this state was the envy of a country
that was the envy of the world.

And I want to get us back there
but I can't do that like this.

She is calling you a liar while lying herself.

That's an issue. It's called hypocrisy.

We're going to talk about the heart attack.

I am going to tell everybody that I am fine.

It is gonna play itself out,
and that's all we have to hide.

Now I'm cutting out early.

- So should you.
- What?

And by the way, I don't think
she knew anything about it.

I think this is all Travis trying to play hardball.

- What took you so long?
- Got hung up in a meeting.

What do you got for me?

Here.

Am I gonna like it?

Yeah, it comes with pictures and hotel receipts.

- That's always a good thing.
- Have fun with it.

Things at Ojai aren't going well.

I mean, I'm aware of that.

But even though she doesn't mean it, Holly
just makes things worse sometimes.

I told you how great Ryan was
doing at the job, didn't I?

- Yeah. Pass me the water.
- Yeah, sure.

Anyway, he's doing a fantastic job.

He just sees things in a totally different way.

So I asked him to figure out what we
could do with the excessive amount of grapes.

And wouldn't you know it?

Impulsively, Holly just gets Rebecca
involved in it. Do you believe that?

No, I don't.

And... and... and now she has them squared off
against each other like a couple of pitbulls...

Oh, do we really have to talk about this right now?

Can't we talk about something else?

I don't give a rat's ass about Holly or grapes.

The world does not revolve around Ojai Foods.

Please, let's talk about something else.

God, I'm just really not in the mood to chat.

I'm sorry, Saul. I'm... I've gotta go.
Evan's waking up. I've gotta go.

It's lymphoma.

They... they don't know what the prognosis is yet,
and... but it... it doesn't matter how bad it is.

I... I need you and...

That was the longest ride home.

I finally just had to get out of the office.

Where's Evan? Is he already asleep?

Uh, no, no. Actually, I, um, well, he...
he's spending the night with my mom.

Thank you for that. All right. Give it to me.

How bad is it?

Well, what... what do you mean?

Oh, God. Did you...

did you talk to my mother?

No, she's the one person I haven't talked to.

But it's... it's everywhere,

and I don't think anyone's being straight
with me about what the fallout's gonna be.

Oh, my God. It's... it's the heart attack?

You're talking about the heart
attack? Kern actually leaked it?

You're kidding me, right?

- You didn't know about this until just now?
- No...

- No, I'm sorry...
- Kitty, this is breaking news.

It's... it's everywhere. And I...

you knew what I was going through today.

You knew what I was up against. You didn't even call me.

Robert, there's a very good reason.

Well, I'd love to hear it, because for someone
who claims to want this marriage to work,

you have a funny way of showing it.

Hello.

Okay, put 'em on hold.

It's my top three donors.

They don't think the campaign's gonna last a week.

So I'm... I'm done fighting. I'm
just gonna take care of this.

Well, I got the Governor to agree to meet me this morning.

So how upset was he?

Considering everything, he was remarkably stoic.

I just can't believe this is happening right now.

Well, at least you have Evan here, right?

Well, I was hoping they would
have time to talk about.

Something other than work.

I notice that Governor Kern
has a few problems of her own.

What do you mean?

She had an affair.

I saw it online.

Really.

Wait, how do I know this and you don't?

Well, no. I... I heard the rumors.

I just wasn't sure if they were true.

Well, maybe Robert will feel better that.

Where's Evan?

Did you get him to go to sleep?

Yeah.

I can't believe it.

He's been fussing and
crying for a straight hour.

They are so cute together.

He's like the baby whisperer.

Well, if he's the baby whisperer, then what am I?

Probably the baby annoyer.

He's just trying to be nice to me
so he can get what he wants.

No, not at all.

All I'm saying is, you're great with kids.

Well, that's because I live with one.

Nora, why don't you take a break?

I'll... I'll take over for a bit.

- I'm fine.
- No, you're exhausted. I get it.

I'm not exhausted.

Well, Kevin told me you've
been complaining, so I thought...

I've been complaining?

- No, no, no.
- Oh, Kevin!

I said you're probably exhausted.

Will you please tell your son to
stop making these playdates for me?

Kevin, I love babies, okay?

That doesn't mean I want one...

- I have to take this.
- Oh, sure.

Hi, what's going on?

No, just hanging with mom,
Scotty and your son.

Is that Robert?

Wo... I.. wh.. I have no idea
what you're talking about.

Yeah, I can come right now if you want.

All right. I'll... I'll be there as soon as I can.

But, no. All I'm...

- He hung up.
- What?

What's wrong?

I think he's a little upset with me right now.

Is it about Kitty?

No, believe me.

This is not a marital issue.

I have to go to Santa Barbara, so...

- I'll call you later.
- Wait. Santa Barbara?

What's going... Kevin.

Kevin. I can't believe this.

Wait. Wait. Who's gonna take me home?

- Kevin!
- Kevin!

Unbelievable.

- Well, I could take you home.
- No, it's okay.

You have Evan. I'll...

I'll take a cab.

Now I think we could break even by
selling it to an even larger producer.

Every vintner in the state has excess.

And the brokers are setting rock bottom prices.

And that's why I say we cut out the
middle man and just sell it ourselves.

We have the connections to go direct,
and we could save that 8%.

And for all this extra effort, all we do is break even?

Come on, Holly.

8% is nothing to scoff at.

Yeah, I know. But it's not exactly gonna save the company.

Rebecca, what do you have for us?

Actually, what I'm proposing
is... is a little bit different.

I think that we should keep the excess juice.

No, I already explained that's not an option.

Well, no. You said aging it isn't an option.

I think we should ferment it and sell it.

So you want to make cheap wine?

Inexpensive wine.

It's still our grapes.

Cannibalize the entire Ojai name
just to sell off a bunch of grapes?

If anything, sweetheart,

Ojai has always stood for quality in the marketplace.
- Saul, let her finish.

No, no, I understand your objections, which is
why I'd create a second label an affordable,

economy, conscious but decent third shelf offering.

Simple label, screw cap.

A screw cap?

I... I... I don't... I don't know what to say about that.

If we sold each bottle for $2 or
$3, we'd profit 50 cents each.

Plus the expense of marketing a brand new label.

Which would pay for itself once we start to sell.

If it starts to sell.

That's true. There is some risk.

That's putting it mildly.

I'll tell you what,

why don't you find the sales figures for
wine at that price and get back to me?

Saul, we gotta go.

We're late for Vincenti.

Vincenti and Maureen. Yeah, okay.

Uh, you understand this is all about business, right?

- Yeah, yeah, of course.
- All right.

- You did a good job, kid.
- Oh, thanks.

- Bye.
- Thank you.

Wait. Was that...

A green light?
Yeah, I think it was.

That was a really good presentation.

Thank you.

It was a lot better than mine.

No, yours was great.

They get really intense about business, huh?

Yeah, and sometimes I feel like
I'm caught right in the middle of it.

Yeah, I know what you mean.

You should see him, all curled up with his giraffe.

Kevin's right. You're a natural.

Oh, I wouldn't go that far.

Scotty, what's going on
with all this baby stuff?

What are you feeling? Why are you so afraid?

Oh, I don't know my mother,
the things I grew up hearing.

I mean, two gay dads.

What if it's a boy?

Who's gonna teach him how to bait a hook?

Bait a hook?

Yeah, or toss a football, beat up a
bully I don't know, defend himself.

You have always been so comfortable with
yourself, from the very first time I met you,

when your... your hair was all...

- The toucan.
- The toucan.

And you had a box of red velvet cupcakes.

You seemed perfectly capable
of defending yourself.

I'm not buying this whole "baiting the hook" routine.

Fine.

- You want to know the truth?
- Yes.

It's about your son, so brace yourself.

Oh, God. Now what?

No, it's...

He works too much.

And that's never gonna change.

We weren't here ten minutes before his phone
rang and he was out the door again.

Well, you have a job.

I know I run a kitchen at a very major restaurant.

I don't know how he thinks
we're gonna be able to do this.

Have you told him what you feel?

No.

So far, we've only been able to talk about
the money, which is a lot, by the way.

Well, Scotty, you have to talk to him,
because, believe me, I know Kevin.

And the moment he sees his child,
he will adjust his life to make room.

I know, because when you look down at

that little person they just simply own you the
rest of your life, and all that matters is that.

Nora, are you all right?

Yes.

Yes.

I just think you will be a wonderful dad.

Well, don't worry. I'm keeping an open mind.

Why do you just assume that I did it?

You said yourself, with things
like this, if one person has it,

- then it's just a matter of time until the whole thing ex...
- Kevin...

You are making this so much
harder than it needs to be.

Okay, fine.

I was on the phone with a blogger who was
gleefully going on about your heart attack

Kevin.

I was trying to protect you. I'm sorry.

I thought that was my job.

Your job is to stay on message.

This campaign has an identity.

It is supposed to be about something.

I was very clear how I felt about that.

But you didn't tell me not to do it.

You were very high minded and
noble, but you didn't say that.

You left a window wide open for me.

I mean, come on.

Travis took it upon himself to play "hardball"?

You were practically asking me to do it.

All right, even if that were true, and
my impulse control was that far off,

I look to you to be my compass.

I need you to pull me back.

I need to be able to trust that.

Okay, you guys need to stop.

- No, we're just we're just in the middle of something.
- No, no, no. I'm sorry.

But, Kevin, you... you have to leave.

- No, he doesn't.
- Yes, he does.

- No, Kevin. Stay.
- No, Kevin. Go.

Well, this is now turning
into my worst nightmare.

Sister trumps boss.

You have to go.

Go.

- You sure?
- Fine.

Sorry.

Are you.

What the hell are you doing?

I need ten minutes with him.

I am in the middle of a crisis.

I have cancer.

I have lymphoma.

It's the bad kind. Diffuse large B-cell.

- What doctor have you...
- I have been to the oncologist twice.

And I have a...

a bone marrow biopsy
scheduled for tomorrow.

- Okay, come and sit down.
- No, no, I... I don't.

I don't want to sit down.

We just need to talk about this.

I don't want to talk.

I don't want to talk.

Rebecca, where are the financials?

I put them in your desk.

Well, they're not there.

I'm sure I put them there. Did you move them?

How could I move them if you didn't
put them back in the first place?

Okay, well, do you have another copy?

No, no, Rebecca.

We don't have another copy.

That document is our account
numbers, it lists all our assets,

everything that we've had to scramble
around thanks to Tommy's mess.

Oh, they're right here.

Oh, thank God.

That's so weird. I'm sure I put them in there.

I... I'm sorry.

I just I have so much stress.

Things have gotten so rough around here.

I... I'm sorry if I snapped at you.

No, no, it's fine.

I don't want any special treatment.

I hope that's not why you chose my pitch.

What?

'Cause I'm your daughter?

No, Rebecca.

I wouldn't do that.

I chose your idea because
your idea was the best idea.

You earned it.

Thank you.

I gotta go.

Where are you going?

Back to work.

Uh, I'm sorry I'm late.

- But the traffic was...
- Did you bring what I asked for?

Uh, yeah.

I made the copies like you said.

Oh, and I don't know if this matters or not,

but I know they're gonna start making cheap wine
and buying bulk juice from other vineyards.

Yeah, it matters.

How long did you know William Walker?

A long time.

What'd you say you needed those for again?

You have your reasons.

I have mine.

I was still reading that.

Okay.

I'm still drinking that.

Please. This has to stop, okay?

You're still mad.

I get it.

No, I'm thirsty and I haven't finished
reading the newspaper.

I... I shouldn't have left you at mom's.

I'm sorry. Look, why don't I
just, I'll... I'll pay the cab fare.

Call it retribution.

It's not about the cab, Kevin.

I'm not gonna force babies
on you ever again okay?

I'm not gonna force anything on anybody.

You should've heard Robert last night.

I'll be lucky if I still have a job when I go in today.

You're always going to have a job, Kevin.

You live for it.

And you say you want a baby, and I'm sure you do,
but who's gonna be at home to look after it?

I mean.

I have a life, too, and it may
not be as important as yours,

it may not be in the newspaper every day,

but I like what I do, and I'm not
sure I'm ready to give that up yet.

I'm... I'm not asking you to.

Yes, you are.

By the way you live your life, you are.

I mean, look at your hours.

The campaign has barely even started, and what
happens when you're on the road campaigning?

We can get a nanny.

That still doesn't change the fact
that you're never gonna be around.

I'm not gonna be an absent father.

I grew up with one.

That's not what I want for my child.

Okay.

Then promise me if things get
crazy, you'll quit your job.

Promise me that.

I can't do that.

But what I can do is try to prove to you...

as much as possible that.

I will try my best to do what's right what...
whatever that is for us and for our kid.

Every family has these doubts, but...

you just have to make a leap of faith.

I just want to make sure we leap together.

We will.

I promise.

The cab cost $32. 50.

But... I know how you can pay me back.

So... does this mean you're
in love with me again?

I never stopped loving you, Kevin.

Kitty.

- Can I get you anything?
- No, no.

I am not supposed to eat or drink anything for
12 hours before my bone marrow biopsy.

Okay.

I'll be right in here.

Okay.

Robert, I... I think I'm ready to talk.

Oh, honey.

No, I know.

No, I don't think you do.

And even if you do, I need to say it.

We are going to fight this, and we are
going to go wherever we have to go,

see whoever we have to see,
and we are gonna win.

'Cause I'm not gonna let
anything happen to you.

I just can't believe that you've been
carrying all this around inside of you.

Why didn't you tell me?

I know. I know.

I think I was just...

scared.

But why?

Because I....

was afraid that you wouldn't
be there for me.

Of course I'm here for you.

Well.

Maybe I was afraid of that, too.

I... I don't understand.

Well.

What if you're only here
because I have cancer?

- I am here because I love you.
- Oh, God.

I want to believe that.

I so want to believe that. I do.

I do.

Look how cute you are.

Hey, how are you?

I'm good.

Just, uh, taking a break, finally.

Well, I am not.

Ooh, you're not?

What? I finally have more to do around here.

I asked my mom for more work.

And guess what.

I got it.

Well, that's... that's great.

What do I get?

You get to wait.

- To wait?
- Yes.

But I can't wait.

Sorry. It's freaky Friday.

I love freaky Fridays.

Okay, fine. But I have to get this done.

I can't just fall asleep after.

I would never ask you to do that.

I'm probably gonna fall asleep after.

I'll tell you that right now.

I'm only here because the Governor made me come.

So say it.

You have to.

I went behind her back.

She had nothing to do with the leak.

And?

I'm sorry.

All right.

Now it's your turn.

Well, yeah, well, yeah, well, I'm yeah, I'm sorry.

No, no. Not good enough.

Say it louder.

It was, uh.

Yeah, it was... it was my idea to....

leak your boss' affair, and I'm sorry.

You know, you do realize, when this is
all over, we could be very good friends?

We're cut from the same cloth.

And what is that?

Oh, cynical, meretricious, mercenary...

God. You're killing me.

Travis.

Do I have something to worry about?

Nope. Just paying my respects.

It, uh, still looks good around here.

Goodbye.

Goodbye.

What's going on?

D... do you think I'm like him?

I don't know.

Maybe.

I mean, I don't know.

You and I have different jobs.

You were trying to protect me, and for the
record, if somebody was coming after you,

I'd rip their head off.

I'd have done the same thing.

Great. Uh, you have a television interview,

so we should probably head over there.

I'm just gonna go alone.

You... you want me to stay here?

Yeah. I got it.

We're... we are good, right?

Yeah.

We're good.

As you now know, I did have a
heart attack a few months ago.

Ironically, it was the same
day that my son was born.

And, uh, how my wife Kitty
managed that day, I'll never know.

Dr. Avadon should be right in.

Okay.

Kitty was completely there for me and Evan.

Here's a gown for you to put on.

And, uh, let me tell you something, I was scared.

You know, to face your
own mortality is frightening.

How you doing?

I'm good as...

as long as I don't look over there.

Well, you know what?

Why don't you look right here?

Oh, my God.

- Is that a banana nut?
- It is.

And the minute this is all over with, it's all yours.

Okay.

Let's get you guys out of here.

Okay...

so if I misled the people of
California, I also misled myself.

I'm not proud of it.

But I think that it takes time before
you can talk about something like this.

You're gonna feel a little pressure.

You need to find the courage.

And when you do talk, you realize.

The most amazing thing that what's
happening, as... as horrible as it is.

Is bringing you closer to the people that you love.

It's reminding you of what's most true in your life.

And that is a good thing.

All done.

No matter how it happens.

Nora?

Nora, what are you doing here?

I dropped Evan off early this morning,
and I thought I'd come find you.

I know you walk here every day.

So if you came here to apologize, Nora,
you didn't have to come this far.

You could've just called me on the phone.

I wanted to do it in person.

Thank you.

Apology accepted.

My God, it's beautiful here.

Maybe I should.

Walk with you every day, and it would make me.

Strong and calm.

That would be good.

I could use the company.

I'm so tired of.

trying to make sure everybody does the right thing.

I don't know what the right thing is myself.

By everybody, what are you
talking about, the children?

Yes. Why do I have to have
the answers all the time?

I don't have the answers.

I can't be calm.

I can't be strong.

Nora, you don't have to be calm.

You don't have to be strong.

Come on.

- Kitty's sick.
- What?

What do you mean, "sick"?W hat kind of sick?

Oh, she doesn't want me to tell you this.

- I shouldn't be saying anything.
- Nora, tell me.

I'm your brother. It's me.

It's cancer.

- She's got cancer.
- Oh, God.

It should be me, Saul.

It should be me.

I'm old.

She's so young and she has a little baby.

Is she getting treatment?

- Yes. - Good.

I don't want her to have to do this.

I don't want her to have to do this.

I don't want her to have to do this.

Oh, it's okay.

It's okay. It's okay.
