Brothers & Sisters (2006–2011): Season 4, Episode 24 - On the Road Again - full transcript

As the Walkers try to cope with the sadness and financial ruin that lingers as a result of the closure of Ojai Foods, they discover a small ray of hope in one of William Walker's many secret investments. Meanwhile, Robert's health...

Okay, baby.

Oh, please, please, Evan, don't.

It's your mom.
You've got to be kidding me.

Okay. No, no, no.

No, no, no.
This is Mama's phone.

Hi, Mom. What's wrong?

Why are you calling me
so early in the morning?

Look, when you're in your 60s,
you don't sleep.

Ever. Remember that.

No, it's your sister,
I'm worried.

Do you think there's any chance



that you could stop by
over there

and check on her today?

I'm sorry, but I can't.
I'm campaigning all weekend.

I'm not gonna have
any time and...

A-And Robert, are you...
Are you not packed?

We have to catch the bus in,
like, an hour.

I have to take a rain check.

Something came up with the bill.

And you're just telling
me this now?

I know, I woke up to a stream
of panicked e-mails.

I was really looking forward
to spending some time with you.

Oh, maybe I should go with you.

Where?
Campaigning. I've never been.

Mom, do you think I really need
to bring my rabidly



Democratic mother on
the campaign trail with me?

I'm ahead in the polls,
right now, okay?

I would like to keep it
that way.

You should take her.
You have 16 stops.

You need somebody
to play cards with.

I play cards.
Where are we going?

No, I'm... I'm going to
a fundraiser in Sacramento.

And then I'm going to
an elementary school in Oxnard.

And then I'm going
to a firehouse,

and I have no idea where it is.

I love you.
Firemen.

Kitty, I love firemen.

I love you. Here.

How's this tie? Good?
I-It's great.

Don't forget
about tomorrow night.

Saul and Scotty are doing their
restaurant menu up in Ojai.

Yeah, I'll be there.
Knock 'em dead.

All right.
So are we on?

On? On what?

I just... I'm afraid your wife
is gonna come home.

Wow.

I mean, Mom said
you were depressed,

but eating pizza in the morning?

What, are you in college?
Tastes good cold.

Tastes good cold.
Justin, get off.

Hey, Justin,
what are you doing here?

Well, I heard dorm girl
was down in the dumps,

so I came by to cheer her up.

Well, I'm sorry
I'm not more upbeat.

Unemployment
doesn't really suit me.

Well, you're talking
to the king of unemployment

and don't wallow.

So clean the closet.
Write a resum...

Have you started looking
for a job yet?

No one's hiring,
and even if they were hiring,

they're certainly
not hiring anybody

that drove their family business
into the ground.

Justin, she's been on the couch
for three days now.

She wants to be alone.

I'm sorry, I'm not gonna
leave you alone.

I would never leave you alone.

All right? So please stop
eating those leftover pizza.

It's making me crazy.
You want to eat something?

I'll make you an omelet.

Just one more piece.
Sarah.

I lost everything, Justin.

Not everything. I mean,
you still have Narrow Lake.

That worthless
piece of property.

How tragic is it that Mom,
Holly and I end up

joint owners of that damn place?

It's like the booby prize.
Yeah, pretty tragic.

All right, no more pizza.
You're done.

Oh, God.
It's grossing me out.

At least Rebecca
got a job offer.

Yeah. She did.

So, so much for going to Haiti.
Haiti?

Well, my college is offering
a program where we go to Haiti

and help out for a year.

And I'd actually
get full credit.

Wow, a year?

Kind of a long time to be apart,
don't you think?

But she didn't take the job yet.

I was trying to convince her
to come.

I'm not gonna be in a library
the whole time.

I'm down there
helping out people.

Hey, more good news.

Your mom is coming over.

Uh... Saul,
smell these peaches.

You can't get anything
like that in L.A.

Are you sure
we're gonna be ready in a month?

Well, we may not be firing
on all four burners,

but we'll be serving food.

Oh, I found a really great
daycare center

in the neighborhood.

Why can't we have the baby
with us in the restaurant?

Well, sometimes, but not always.

A baby.

Oh, did we wake you?

What, with all the banging,
the clanging,

the Olivia Newton-John playing?

No, absolutely not.

So glad we rented
the old Ojai house

for some peace
and quiet this weekend.

Well, we're not here
for peace and quiet.

Your whole family's coming
tomorrow.

You made a menu.
Yeah. It's a test menu.

We want everyone's opinion
on how everything tastes.

So it's an oral exam?

Wait until you see
the amazing recipes.

I feel bloated already.

Okay, Kevin, if you're not
gonna help, out of the kitchen.

Inside voice, please.

I never knew that my nephew
was such a grump in the morning.

I never knew my uncle
wore a muumuu, so we're even.

It's not a muumuu.
It's a night shirt.

Where's...?
Do you know where my...?

Yeah.

Hey, Kit.
Saul's wearing a muumuu.

Says the man
in the sleeping mask.

How's my senator-to-be?

Oh, cautiously optimistic.

What, about the primary?

No, about me and Mom on a bus.

I-I somehow got suckered
into letting her campaign

with me all weekend.

I-It could be fun, right?
I'm sorry.

Mom, the most vocal,
bleeding-heart liberal

in Southern California?

No, that's not fun.
That's campaign suicide.

Oh, I was so hoping
you weren't gonna say that.

Kitty.
She brought Sarah.

Sarah's not the person
I'd want cheering for me.

No. She looks like somebody
killed her cat.

I-I'll see you tomorrow. Okay?

Surprise. You've got
the both of us.

Yeah. Hey, how are you,
Sarah?

Hi. Does this thing
have a TV?

Uh, yeah.

What the hell are you thinking?

She was doing nothing
but eating pizza

and watching soap operas.

Mom, this is not a bus
to Vegas, okay?

I have some serious
campaigning to do.

Where's the remote?

Oh, never mind, got it.

You see?
She's better already.

It's gonna be fine.

Come on, honey.

Look at this. I just got
another friend request.

Saul just discovered Facebook.
Ooh, hot.

Old flame?
Well, we had a little moment.

But that was years ago.

Oh, look.
He's a big AIDS activist.

It says he's been living
with AIDS for the last 22 years.

Oh, he does those bike-a-thons.
That's pretty remarkable.

I did a bike-a-thon.
I raised 1,500 bucks.

And then I had to spend 1,500
bucks on my own chiropractor.

Oh, you have
your physical next week.

Oh, yeah.
Do you two still get tested?

For HIV? Yeah, of course.

It's like habit now.
It's like spring-cleaning.

Yeah. And you never know where
this one's been tramping around.

Exactly.

What do you mean "exactly"?

What about you, Saul?
What, me? Tested?

What for?
I'm 100 years old.

Anyway, I haven't had sex
since the Hindenburg exploded.

No, the only thing about me
that gets tested is my patience.

Now, come on.
We have recipes to cook.

We have meals to make.

Listen, we have enough
to hang this guy.

Stanton's been buying votes

to win highly-inflated
defense contracts.

He is getting rich
on the backs of our soldiers.

You think I don't know that?

Then why hang onto the tapes?

You have him
offering you money, a job.

He threatened Kitty.

The one thing I told you
was I wouldn't let

this compromise her campaign.

He hasn't anything on Kitty.

Well, he'll make something up.

I mean, I'm already
hearing this crap

about Kitty using my plane
to campaign around the state.

I mean, who do you think
that is? It's Stanton.

Look, it is just noise.

The kind of noise
that drowns everything else out.

And it starts with the little
lies and...

Then it's the big lies,
and she's destroyed.

If you don't go public,
he's getting away with murder.

Literally.

He is out there on his own,

operating without
any accountability,

and American soldiers are dying

because all he cares about
is making money.

Okay, look, I told you
I'd go after this guy

and I've done my part.

But I also told you,

if it got anywhere near her,
I was out.

He knows that
we're onto him now.

He's gonna be in church every
Sunday singing in the choir.

Those tapes our only shot.

Now please, give them to me.

I can't.

I have to do this
in a way that protects my wife.

I hope you have a safe place
to hide them.

The tapes will be safe.

Honey, you know,

I think you're doing
a wonderful job.

Well, thank you.
Thank you, Mom.

But this stop,
maybe you should start out

with immigration performance
instead of tax cuts.

Last three stops have
just been "tax cuts,

tax cuts, tax cuts."

That's because tax cuts work.
They stimulate the economy.

Oh, my God.

They found another feral child
in Wisconsin.

Oh, wait. Never mind.

This was a really bad idea.

She's gonna be fine.
Honestly.

And when you consider
all of the options,

I think watching soap operas
and reading trashy magazines

is a pretty harmless way
of self-medicate.

I'm not self-medicating,
Mom. I'm grieving.

There are stages.
Yes, I know, honey.

There are five stages.

Excuse me,
can I have this for a minute?

No. My favorite show's
about to come on.

The governor's going to be on.
This is all I'm living for.

Don't let them
take it away from me.

Sarah.

Sarah.

Is she gonna be
like this the whole time?

No. You have to do fix this.
Okay, girls.

Fine.
Stop. Sarah.

Sarah, listen to me.

Honey, come on, now.
Come on, now.

We're just gonna have some fun.

Fun?

I am stuck on a bus
in the middle of nowhere,

listening to my sister's
cheering, adoring fans.

Not that I'm not happy for you.
I mean, I want her to win.

Honestly, I do. But I tanked
my family's business.

I bet the house on Narrow Lake,
I came up dry.

Let's face it.
My instincts suck.

Sweetheart,
your instincts don't suck.

Well, they do a little.

Sarah, honey, listen to me.

You cannot bear
the weight of Ojai

going out of business
all by yourself.

I'm just as responsible
as you are.

Does anyone know
if I get carsick?

Well, we're going
to find out, I think.

Here. She can have
this back.

What?
It's Saul.

Oh, he can't hear us.
The walls are like oak.

No, it's not... It's not that.

He should get tested, Kevin.
Oh, that.

Look, he hasn't had sex
since the Stone Age.

That poor man.
He said so himself.

I heard that.

- Saul?
- Yes.

Are you holding a glass
to the wall?

No, but I have
my new hearing aids in.

Okay.

It is very sweet for you both
to care and I appreciate it,

but this is not a possibility.

When was the time
you were tested?

Please stop worrying about me.

Let's worry about the restaurant
this weekend.

What if we all went together?

I'm sure there's a place
in town we could go.

Yeah, we could go tomorrow.
Out of "solidarity."

Okay, how about this?

I'll go next month when I have
my cholesterol checked.

Great, great. I'll go
with you if you want.

It's okay. I'll be fine. Thank
you.

Oh, don't start fooling around.

The walls are paper-thin.

Hey, thanks for coming.

Uh, sure, sure.

I guess, the obvious
question is,

what am I doing here
at 11:30 at night?

Hey, you didn't finish
at the hospital until now.

Okay, let me rephrase.

What are we doing here
at 11:30 at night?

I just wanted to talk to you.

Um, well, I didn't do
anything wrong, did I?

No, no. To the contrary.

You're the only person
that I can trust right now.

Look, we've been through a lot.

You're a soldier.

That's what I need right now.

I want you to hold onto that.

What is this?

It's a key
to a safe deposit box.

This is the address to the bank.

Now, this is in both
of our names.

And you and I are the only ones
who know about it.

You're kidding me, right?

There's an envelope inside.

And when I figure out
what I wanna do with it,

I'll let you know.

But if something happens to me,
give it to Kitty.

And she'll make the decision
on what to do.

What do you mean?
Is this about your health?

Justin, do this for me, please.

Okay?
Yeah.

Yeah.

There.

That's a little more festive.

Now I'm gonna turn
this light right here.

Mom. Mom.

W-What are you doing?
I can't see anything now.

Well, that's the point.

It ain't exactly
The Ritz around here.

They better have cable.
No, no, no.

No more TV for you, missy.
You're cut off.

We're doing facials.

Oh, my God.
We're out of wine.

Where's the minibar?

At the Four Seasons...

Mother.

- Get up, get up. Don't...
- What?

They never wash those
bedspreads. Get up off there.

You're liable to get
some horrible skin disease.

I'd like a skin disease.

Anything just to feel again.

All right. Everybody,
listen up.

- We're gonna do facials.
- I got it.

Wait a minute. Have you guys
ever heard of

"Citizens For
a Corrupt-Free America"?

No, it sounds like
some horrible right wing,

militant, gun toting...
Well, they're saying that I'm

flying around California
in a private jet.

Well, y-you do fly around
California in a private jet.

I don't campaign in it, Mother.

That's what they're saying.

They're saying
that I campaign in it.

And I certainly don't use
taxpayers' dollars to gas it up.

I mean, this is outrageous.

Kitty, what are you gonna
do about it?

I'm not gonna do anything.
You can't fight these wackos.

Kitty, they're lying about you.
Mom, let it go.

I mean it. Please.

It's no big deal.
I'm sorry I brought it up.

- Well, I... You know...
- Mom.

What?
She said let it go.

You're always getting involved.

All right, guys, guys,
guys, guys, guys.

I need you to be quiet.

I'm sorry, but I really have
to start working on my speech.

Okay, give me the keys
to the bus.

I'm gonna get more liquor.
No.

No, you're not driving the bus.

Okay, I will get a cab.

You're not gonna drive anything,
for goodness sakes.

You know what?

I'm going to go get one of those

nice little intern people
and have them go to the store.

Good. Make sure
he gets a screw top

because we don't have an opener.

For God's sakes.

Don't you dare.

Wait.

My face feels funny.

It looks funny.

Oh, did I forget
to wash my mask off?

Oh, my God, Sarah.

You're gonna have such
tiny little pores on...

On that side anyway.

Oh, good.

Where's Mom?
Don't know.

My sciatica's kicking in.
I don't feel good.

Mom, why did you sleep
on the floor?

I have no idea.

Oh, my right side
of my body is numb.

- Hey, what's up?
- Oh, God.

This place looks
like a frat room.

Mom.

What? You're kidding.

You've got chips in your hair.
I'll call you back.

Get it off.

Oh, I didn't sleep
one wink last night.

Which one of you two girls
has a tiny little bladder?

Oh, it would be
the mother of two.

Excuse me.
Hey, Mom?

Did you happen to sign on
the website

that was trashing me last night?

Maybe just for one
little minute.

Oh, my God, Mom.

Kitty, I couldn't let them get
away with it.

They were lying about you.

You had too much wine.
Kitty, listen.

It wasn't just the jet plane.

Th-They started in
about your wig.

They said you spent thousands
and thousands of dollars

and single-handedly
plucked strands of hair

out of poor, little orphaned
girls' heads to make the wig.

I had to respond.

Oh, my God. You told them
how much my wig cost.

I don't know
how much your wig cost.

Really? Because it says
right here, $4,300.

That is absurd.
No, Sarah.

It's not absurd.
That's what it cost.

Exactly what it cost.

I mean,
I know it's hard to believe,

but they're incredibly
expensive.

Sweetheart, you had cancer.

They can't begrudge you one
little wig.

No, Mom, you're wrong.

It's either rich
Kitty McCallister,

out of touch,
spending all this money

or it's poor Kitty McCallister,
cancer survivor, fragile,

how will she ever
withstand a primary,

let alone a term in the Senate?

No. This is coming
from someone

who knows exactly
what they're doing.

Someone who found out
precisely how much my wig cost.

Well, who?

That's a very good question.

Okay, so you're saying
if someone is taking amiodarone,

they could be suffering
from ventricular tachycardia?

Wow, that's pretty serious.

Uh, no, no. I don't know
how long he's been taking it.

Okay, uh, well, thanks a lot,
professor.

And, uh, I will get back to you.

All right. Thank you.

Who was that about?

Uh, nothing.
Just a school question.

So, Justin,
I've been thinking a lot

about the whole Haiti thing,
and...

What if we both
do what we wanna do?

What do you mean?

You go to Haiti
and I take this job.

How would that work?

I-I know it would be
difficult, but...

I mean, timeout. Rebecca,
like, we just got married.

The whole point
is to stay together.

I took the job, Justin.

You what?
You knew the deadline was today.

I didn't think
you were gonna take...

Justin, I want this opportunity.

This is a huge step
forward for me.

So I'm supposed
to just go to Haiti without you?

I'm trying to compromise.

No, you're not trying
to compromise.

You made the decision for us.
No, I did not.

You know what?
Fine, I'm not going.

Rebecca, you got
what you wanted,

at least be honest about it.

So you're here for an HIV test?

Yeah. Yeah, yeah.

Why?
Are you surprised?

You probably don't get many
people my age coming in here.

I wish we did.

The over-50 set is our fastest
growing risk group.

It's those performance
enhancing pills.

Ah. Ah, yes.

The truth is,
I really haven't done anything

to put myself
at risk for years, so, uh...

I see.

I'm probably wasting your time
as well as mine.

I mean, I'm in perfect health.

My hearing isn't good
as it used to be,

but I have these amazing
hearing aids now and I...

Let me ask you something.

Is it possible for someone
to be HIV positive for,

I don't know, let's say decades,
and not know?

If you're asking
if you could be positive

and completely asymptomatic?

Right.
The answer is yes.

I see.

You know, it's not typical,
but it can happen.

I take it you've never been
tested before?

No. No, no.

I just never thought that...

Is there a reason
for concern now?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Uh, this friend of mine...

we were together years ago.

I just found out
that he's, uh, living with AIDS.

And, uh...

Listen,
if someone tests positive,

there are all sorts of drugs
they can take now.

A person can live a long,
healthy life these days.

Good.

We could get you tested
right now.

Now?
You'd know tomorrow morning.

Anytime after 8.

Good. Okay. Let's go
for it.

Okay, so you dry the frisée

and I'll start putting
the eggs in.

Yeah.

Oh, Saul, did you put vinegar
in that water?

Yes. I put vinegar
in the water.

I do know how to poach an egg.
Okay. Relax.

Scotty, I'm sorry,
I didn't mean to jump on you.

I just didn't sleep
very well last night.

Are you thinking about
what we talked about last night?

No.
I didn't mean to pressure you.

If you don't want to...

Can we concentrate
on the frisée salad? Please.

Yeah.

Hey, anything I can do to help?

Whoa!
Is everything okay?

Listen, Rebecca.
Do me a favor.

There are too many cooks
in this kitchen.

Uh, Rebecca,
would you mind taking out

these empanadas for me?
Definitely.

How was the drive?
It wasn't bad.

Don't go in the kitchen.
Everybody's freaking out.

I'm going to grab a sweater.
You want one, Justin?

Justin.
No. I would've asked.

Thank you, Rebecca.

You guys okay?
We've been better.

What about you?
How you feeling?

I feel fine.

What do they have you
taking these days?

Taking?
Your heart, Robert.

Atorva, which is why I'm gonna
have some more of this.

Hi, guys.
How were the crowds?

The crowds were large, friendly.

And loud.
Excruciatingly loud.

Robert, can I talk
to you for a minute?

Sure.

Don't go in the kitchen.
Saul might kill you.

What?

Oh, look, how cute.
They have menus.

So let's see, they have lamb
burgers with yogurt.

Chipotle meat loaf.

Anyone want some olive tapenade?

- Wine, please.
- Wine, please.

Oh, Rebecca, when do you start
your new job?

It's a sensitive subject.

Yeah, so maybe
we should drop it.

All I am saying, Robert,
is that it's weird.

Okay, I've tried to track

Citizens For a Corrupt-Free
America

and they are not
a registered lobbying group.

They don't exist anywhere.

I'm sure it's just some wing nut
with a computer.

No. They put it up in exactly
the right places.

Cable news picked up
the private-jet story

just as we were coming
off the bus.

Okay, it's not... It's ironic.

It's not true, so...

It doesn't matter
if it's not true, Robert.

There is somebody out there
who has a lot of information

and a lot of experience
and for whatever reason,

they've decided
to come after me.

Okay, look,
you're up in the polls.

So it makes perfect sense.
Okay, it makes sense,

but I'm still trying
to find out who it is.

And I've called a couple
of my friends, you know,

on the other side
and they flatly deny it.

I don't want you
worrying about this.

Robert, they brought up the wig.

And how much it cost.

They brought up the cancer.

I didn't think they were gonna
do that and th-they did.

Too much cilantro in that.
I'm sure it's fine.

How's everybody doing in here?

Great.
She's a little jittery.

Drop it. He didn't sleep well
last night.

It's our fault.
Oh, come on, Scotty.

Why is it our fault? Why?

Because we were talking
about getting tested?

It's not like you've been
around the block.

You've barely set foot
outside your house.

Would you please stop being
so patronizing

and cavalier about this?

Okay, I'm sorry
I ever mentioned it.

Are you?
Yeah.

Do you have any idea what
you're asking of me? Do you?

This world
that the two of you live in,

it's where everything is so easy
and so much is possible.

You have a surrogate carrying
your child, y-you're married...

Technically, we're not married.
I'm so sorry.

You're domestic partners,
whatever. When I was your age,

I just hoped
that I wouldn't get arrested

when I walked into a gay bar.

If you don't want
to get tested...

Too late. I already did.
What?

I took the test this morning.

Well, that's a good thing,
right?

It's great for people like you,

because it's spring-cleaning
for you.

Isn't that what you said?
You go every year.

But you see,
I never opened that closet.

Regardless of the world
that you grew up in,

the world that I knew
was a lot less accepting.

People died.

Don't you get it?

For me, bad news is pos...

So why don't you plate up
this food

and I will get some fresh air.

It's just pushing
my buttons, is all.

It's just making me doubt
everything.

What are you doubting?

Well, it's been two months
since my last test.

And you were fine.

But I have to have another one
in six months

and another one after that.
It's always gonna be there.

You're not gonna get sick again.

What if I do?

What if I really
can't handle this?

Don't do this.

Don't... Don't let one person
do this to you.

You're up in the polls
and you had a bad day.

Okay. I am gonna go get us
some wine.

Where the hell is he going?

You know, I don't know,
but he seemed really upset.

You know,
I'm going to go talk to him.

Mom, stop. Don't. Don't get
involved. Keep drinking.

You know,
I'll go to the kitchen, Mom.

I will find out what's going on.

I'll come with you
for moral support.

Why is your mother calling me?
I don't know.

Hey, Holly, what's up?

They're drilling again?

Well, who authorized that?

You're kidding me.
Look, Sarah, I can explain.

No, I will talk to her.
Thank you.

Mom, what the hell
are you doing?

Look, it's worth the time
and effort. I know it.

So you paid for more drilling?
It's my money.

There's nothing there, Mom.
If there was,

they would have found it by now.

Sarah, it's just a few
more days drilling.

Oh, God, Mom, I love you,
but you have to stop.

You cannot solve
everybody's problems.

Mine, Kitty's, Saul's.
Just leave it alone.

I don't believe, as a family,
we can't help each other.

Then how can I move on
if you don't?

I need more information, Robert.

I'm starting to feel really
weird about this.

There's nothing more I can say.

Why are you taking amiodarone?

I started to have
some arrhythmia again.

Does Kitty know?
I didn't think anyone knew.

I'm sorry. I saw the bottle
on your desk.

Now you're telling me
you're hiding it from Kitty.

What I'm asking you to do

has nothing to do
with my health.

Then what is in the safety
deposit box?

Don't do this.
You can't expect me to...

No, I can expect it.
That's why I chose you.

That's the whole point.

I'm sorry. I'm worried
about you, Robert.

Give me the key back.
I mean it.

I clearly chose
the wrong person.

Hey, guys.
Tasting menu's ready.

Excuse me.

Is he okay?
Because he seems a little testy.

Yeah, you know what?
H-He's fine.

He's fine.

Uncle Saul, I'm sorry.

I didn't realize... It's okay.

Come on. Let's go eat.

Thank you.
Menus.

Menus.

Okay.

So, uh, the idea
behind our restaurant

is comfort food
meets organic meets tapas.

And we are very hopeful
and very optimistic.

We better be
because we open in a month.

So, um, you all have your menus.

Mark down what you like
in order of preference.

And I want everybody's opinion.
Not just Kevin's.

So, uh...
You all right?

Dig in.

What's wrong? Robert?

I think someone should call 911.

Robert. Robert, are you okay?

What's wrong?
Call 911.

What's happening?
You okay? You okay?

Come on, look at me.
Breathe.

Just breathe, all right?

Dialysis call extension 201.

Dialysis call 201.

Oh, hey.

Wow, what time is it?
It's early.

How are you feeling?

I've been watching you.
What could be better?

Hm.

I need coffee.
I will call room service.

You know what, honey?

It's not funny.

You have been walking around
with an arrhythmia

and you never bothered
to tell me.

I didn't want you to...
Didn't... Didn't want what?

To have to choose
between me and the campaign.

That's what grown-ups do.

We talk about it.

And we set priorities.

But I want you to win.

Robert, we had
to call an ambulance.

Look, I got dizzy, all right?

I shouldn't have said anything.

Oh, you are... I'm sorry.

Seriously, you are unbelievable.
I'm sorry.

You are unbelievable.

You just will never accept
anything from anyone.

You are incredibly stoic
and I...

I love that about you.

I really do, but you know,

I also love the part of you
that is vulnerable.

I love the part of you
that needs me.

And when you can't figure out
what tie to wear,

I am in heaven.

When you can't find your
glasses, I...

Forget about it. I'm...

I just didn't fall in love
with the hero.

I fell in love with the guy
who was afraid

that after his heart attack,

he wasn't gonna be able
to keep up with his kid.

Look, I may have gotten
myself into a situation.

Those hits
that you've been taking?

They're directed at me.

They're shots across the bow
from a guy named Stanton.

He's in line
for a big defense contract.

Go on.

You're out early.
Yeah.

I went for a little walk.

Ah.

I just talked to Kitty.

She said Robert's gonna be
all right.

They are releasing him
from the hospital today.

Oh, boy.
That's great.

Thank God, huh?

You're the one
I'm worried about.

Me?
Yeah.

Oh, I see. You've been talking
to the boys.

I'm so sorry I didn't know
what you were going through.

Please, tell me about
this friend of yours.

What can I say?
He wasn't the only one.

I-I...

I spent most of my life
living in shame, Nora.

There were no role models
for me when I was growing up.

But you can't be alone
every night.

There were times
when I let myself.

But it was always in secret.

And it was rarely
with the same person

so it could never be
anything real.

I made sure of that.

Didn't you worry
about what that might cost you?

We knew nothing
about what was going on

in those days
and there were times...

I mean, cost you y-your heart.
Your soul.

No.

No, I-I couldn't let myself
think that way.

Well, then, it's time to start.
Your life is not over yet.

When do you get your results?

Now, today, whenever I want.

Good. Let's call.
I'll sit right here with you.

No, I have to do that
when I'm alone. Please.

For crying out loud.

What is wrong with everyone?

What, is there a moratorium
on compassion around here?

We're family.

That means you don't have
to do things alone.

That's the whole point.
You are so pushy.

Well, tough.

Here, take that.
All right.

I have to get the number.

All right. Here it is.

I had a test the other day.
I'm calling for the results.

Saul Holden.

H-O-L-D-E-N.

My birthday is August
11th, 1938.

Thank you.
Yeah, thank you.

I'm fine.

I'm fine.

Mom, Holly called.
We've got to go.

Where?
Narrow Lake. Hurry.

Come on.
Narrow Lake.

Can you believe this?
What is it?

It's an aquifer.

It's our aquifer.

It's Narrow Lake.
I knew it, I knew it.

What does that mean exactly?

It means that we are
in the water business.

I mean, do you know how much
California needs water?

We are going to be rich.

How deep is it?

They said it's the deepest one
they've ever seen.

- Well, tell them to stop it.
- Boys, turn it off.

They're getting a well cap.
Don't worry.

Well, we don't want it
to run out.

Nora, it's enormous. It's
an entire ocean under there.

What are you doing?
Oh, my God.

What are you doing?
Oh, my God.

What do you say?

Okay, come on, Nora.
Let's go.

Yes, you were right.

I guess I wasn't feeling so hot.

You still want me to give you
the key back?

Actually, I do. But not because
I don't trust you.

I think Kitty and I
should handle this ourselves.

You told Kitty. That's good.
Yeah, I told her everything.

I probably should've
a long time ago,

but I think I have
to keep learning

this lesson over and over.

I heard you were part of a very
covert operation this weekend.

Yeah. So covert
I had no idea what was going on.

Well, I guess I'll see you guys
back at the bat cave.

All right, Justin.
Take care.

Bye.
See you, little brother.

Take care.
Love you.

Sarah, I know how much you liked
the chipotle meat loaf.

Thank you.

Your restaurant's
gonna be a big hit.

Thank you.
If not,

Sarah can support you
for the rest of your life.

Now that she and Mom
are the water queens of Ojai.

I think we have enough queens
in the family.

Oh, Nora.
Yes.

Here, this is the mac
and cheese.

Oh, Scotty, thank you.

Come on.
Okay.

- Bye.
- Bye.

Mom.
Yeah?

Even if we hadn't found water,

I wouldn't trade
that miserable bus trip

for all the pizza in the world.

She's going out again
to the Bay Area.

Don't push your luck.
It's wine country.

Get in.
All right,

I'm getting in the car.
Okay, let's go.

Bye.
Hit the road. Bye, guys.

Don't forget this.

You angel.

Bye.
Thank you.

Bye.
Bye, sweetheart.

Goodbye.
Drive safe.

Are you sure you turned
the ovens off?

Yeah. Four times.

How's Robert?

Uh, he's fine. He's fine.

They just, uh,
changed his medication.

Good.

Wait, wait, wait.

Did you mean what you said?
About going without you?

To Haiti? Yes, I did.

Look, I was just thinking
about Robert and Kitty

and how they're there
for each other.

And that's
what I want for us, Rebecca.

I know you do.

Me too.

And you think
we can survive this separation?

Would you be happy
any other way?

And I know that a year
is a long time,

but compared to a lifetime...

A year's nothing.
To, I mean, a lifetime?

Like a real lifetime?
Justin.

I love you.
I love you too.

You are listening
to conservative talk radio.

When he was elected president
of the United States, many...

I've been thinking
about the whole Stanton thing.

Yeah. I think you should
release the tapes.

A political reputation was
already categorized by the...

I'm serious.

We would take a major hit.

And we might even lose, but...

Yeah, but if we play it safe

and wait until
the election is over,

he's still gonna come after me.

Exactly.
And he's gonna come after me

just as hard.

You wanna know
what Stanton's big mistake was?

He never should've
brought up the wig.

It really pissed me off.

Died in the Civil War.
And the vote...

Release them.
Let's release 'em.

Has not only continued

through the first quarter
of 2010, but has...

Well, I'm glad you're okay,
Saul. You big drama queen.

That's very funny, Kevin.

Oh, listen, Holly's getting
a phone call.

We'll talk later, okay?
Okay. Bye.

Hello?
Hey. Where are you, guys?

Almost at the Ventura border.
We're right behind you.

Nora and I have been talking

and we think that maybe
you should revisit

the Hawaiian wedding idea.

Oh, my God.

The wedding I planned
was so beautiful.

I don't know. Maybe David
and I will get married there.

No, no, no.
Hold on, hold on.

Our mothers want to throw us
that wedding in Hawaii

now that they can afford it.
What do you think?

Tell them thank you,
but, uh, no.

Not Hawaii again.
I'll tell them...

Mom, we're gonna think about it.

Hello?

I lost her.

Look, I just say
we leave well enough alone.

Every time we think
about having a big wedding,

something bad happens.
Plus, it's redundant.

We're already married.
We should just let

Mom and Dad do it.
Yep. I mean,

I'd go to that wedding.

You tired?
You want me to drive?

No, no, no.
I'm fine, I'm fine.

Why don't you find something
on the radio.

Oh, my God.
What?

Is everyone okay?

Scotty.
Oh, my God, Kevin.

Are you okay?

Justin.
I'm fine.

I'm fine.
Kevin, are you okay?

Help the others. Help Mom.
Are you hurt?

What?
Mom was just...

Mom.

Sarah, you okay?
I think we hit Robert's car.

Oh, my God.
There was a truck.

Where's my mom?
Holly's in the car.

I can't get Holly
out of the car.

What?
Holly's hurt.

Mom.

Just sit down over here.
Call emergency...

Are you okay? Where's Saul?

- Where's Saul?
- I don't know.

I see him.

Saul?
I'm fine.

Are you okay? Good.
Yeah.

Don't touch me.

You can't.

Kitty.

Oh, my God.
Kitty, Kitty.

No, no, Justin. Justin,
I think he's really hurt.

He's really hurt.
All right, let me in.

Let me in. Okay.

Hey, Robert.

There he is.
There's my man.

Justin, help. Mom's bad.

Justin,
I'll wait for the ambulance.

Go.
All right.

Oh, God.
I'll be back.

Be right back, okay?

Oh, God. Oh, God.

Rebecca, clear out.
Clear out.

Rebecca.

Can you hear me?
I don't know if she's breathing.

Can you hear me, Holly?

Holly? Holly.

Okay, Holly, it's Justin,
all right?

I'm just gonna put this on.

Keep you warm, okay?

You're gonna be okay.
She's gonna be okay.

Okay, Robert.
Everything's gonna be okay.

You're going to be fine.
Okay, talk to me.

Just talk to me, darling.
It's okay.

You were right.

I was right?

When we brought Evan
home from the hospital,

I was scared...

that I wouldn't
be able to keep up.

But then I saw you holding him.

So strong.

So loving.

And I knew that you would.

I knew that...

Robert.

Robert, Robert, talk...
Talk to me.

Oh, God. Robert.

Stay with me.
I'm right here.

Robert.

Oh, my...

Oh, my God.
Oh, my God, somebody...

Somebody... Oh, Robert.

Robert, please.

Please, Robert, stay with me.

Robert, stay with...

Robert, don't.

Oh, God. Somebody...

Somebody... Somebody help...

Help. Robert.

Robert.

Kitty?

Kitty?

Kitty.
