Robert... do you thinkthat I
have forgottenthat I have cancer?

I had kevin rescheduletomorrow's
press conference

in case the chemotakes
longer than they say.

Oh,no,no,no.You don't--you don't have
to do that,because,uh,I'm gonna be fine.

No,it's your first
time.I should be there.



No,sorry. I've already decidedthat
you are not gonna bemy chemo buddy.

W-w-well,who
is?

I dot know.I have a wholegaggle of
family membersjust waiting in line.

But you,my friend,you are gonna
be concentratingon the campaign.

What has happened to you?

I mean,you didn't
evenwant me in this race,

- and now I want to be therefor you...
- you're gonna be there for me.

You're running for governor.
You're not going to the moon.

And besides,the last thing I
needis you quitting on my account.

Okay.

Can I at least quitthis game?

Yes.

You can.

****

yes?

I'm,uh,justin.

Justin walker.

I'm sorry.Office
hoursdon't start until 1:00.

You know what?This
willonly take a second.

I've been reading upon the
cancer researchyou've been doing,

and I know it's a bit late,but I was
wonderingif I could possiblyjoin your team?

My assistant positionswere
filled a month ago.

I know.And I know this
wouldbe making an exception.

Well,even if I could,my grant funding
only allowsa certain number of students.

Okay,you know what?I'd,uh,I'd volunteer.

I'd,uh,I'd work for free.

- Uh,what year are you?
- First.

You know,in my experience,it's
better not to rushinto specializing.

You might want to takea year or two,

make sure oncology'swhat
you really want to do.

No,its.

Look,I'll,uh,I'll do anything.

I'll,uh,empty your trash.

I'll sweep the floors.

I can,uh,offer you a penthat works.

Here you go.

What was your name again?

Justin walker.

I'll think about it,justin.

Thank you.Thank you.

Um,I won't disappoint you.

- sorry I'm late.
- Where are we?

- We?
- Yeah.

- You mean me.
- Okay.That's all right.We'll catch up.

I was trying tgetan
internship with dr.Condon.

But you barely got thisunder control.

- Look,I can handle this.
- Look,I told you.

I'm not gonna get dragged down

but your unfocused,naiveapproach
to medical school.

Look,I told youI can handle this.

All right,carter?

- Unbelievable.
- Carter.

I know this is probablynot
what you'rein the mood for,

but,uh,rebecca and I are
gonnalook at wedding venues today.

I would so love to,but I can't today.

It's,um,kitty'sfirst chemo
treatment,and I have to be there.

She hates hospitals,and
she hates needles,

and it's--it's gonna
bea very rough day.

- She needs me.
- Of course.

Besides that,I really don't want to

intrude on your mother-daughter time.

Please,we're going to
bein-laws soon enough.

We would loveto have you with us.

Thank you,holly.I
really appreciate that.

Okay,bye.

Holly,you wanted to see me.

uh,yeah.

I nt you to follow upa
line on a jue broker.

I think I have finally
locateda supply of cheap wine

that we can useto make our blend.

I would do this myself,but
I have promised rebecca

that we would lookat
wedding venues today.

Okay,but don't you thinkwe should
waituntil sarahgets back to work?

I mean,she needs to weigh
inon the possibility of

a low-budgetor a second line plan.

And who knows?She might
havefound something in france.

Well,we needthe revenue now.

We need to put this deal
intomotion with the broker today.

Okay,well,how do you knowpeople
are gonna buythis $2.99 swill,holly?

In this economy,people will
buy itif we market it correctly.

And if you give thema lottery
ticketto distract themfrom the taste.

You know what,saul?

Forget that I even asked.

If that's the way you want
toleave it,that's fine with me.

No,what I want isto
generate new revenue now.

We have no idea how long it's gonna be

before people are willing to
buy high-end products again.

And quite frankly,we
can't afford to wait.

- What,are we having company?
- no.

No.I just want to be prepared.

We don't know how you'll
feelafter this first treatment.

So I made all your favores.

I made tapioca pudding.

I made fresh banana bread,lots
of p--no,no,don't,don'T.

Don't--don't
drink that.

because they say you shouldn'tgo
there on an empty stomach.

Yes,so I madeoua great protein drink.

And it has almond milkand
protein powder and--

It's thick.

- A little thick.
- Well,let me justthin it out for you.

And then I'll put itin a travel
mug,because we can take itwith us.

And I am all ready to go.

Oh,mom. Oh,god,mom. I'm so sorry.

I totally forgot
to tell youthat--

that sarahis actually going
tocome here and pick me up,

and--and she's gonna bemy
chemo buddy for today.

Oh,great. Good.

I mean,I,you know,I've hardly seen
hersince she got backfrom france,

and I thoughtthat it would bea
nice opportunityfor us to catch up.

So,you know,it doesn't
allhave to fall on you,okay?

I mean,look at--look at allyou've done
so far,and it's only 10:00in the morning.

I mean,I thinkyou should take the day.

Take the dayand just enjoy
yourself,because guess what.

- What?
- I am gonna be fine.

Yes,yes.

I know that. I know that.

Yeah.

Absolutely.

The truth is,kitty and ispent a great
deal of timeweighing this decision,

and the choice was clear--we could
suspend our campaignand let the cancer win,

or we could continue to liveour own
livesand stand upfor what we believe in.

And so that's why I'm
staying in the race,

because kitty and I believe
that's what's best for our family

as well as the stateof california.

Okay,I'll take a few questionsnow.

Uh,one at a time. steve.

- Senator,I think I spefor everyonein wishing kitty well.
- Thank you.

But to focus on your
decisionto keep campaigning--

do you risk losing donorswho may
fearyou might drop outdown the road?

Well,uh,I thinkthat my donors
appreciatethat I'm steadfastin my decisions.

So,no,I-I don't thinkthat's
gonna be an issue.

yes,lynda.

If mrs.Mccallisterdoes support
your decisionto stay in the race,

why isn't she here today?

She's at home recuperating.

Of course,but,senator,are you concerned

that continuingyour gubernatorial run

in the face of your
wife'sconditions will appear callous?

Well,I think most calanorniswould
appreciatethat this isa private,family matter,

and I think that
they'lljudge it as such.

Next question.

now,kitty,you may feela little
coldas it reaches your vein.

Okay.

Here,let's warm you up.Come on.

Get you nice and warm.

Sarah... can you,uh,can you talk please?

What do you want meto talk about?

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

You can talk aboutyour trip.

Okay.

there it is.

it's okay.

You're okay.

So...we were running late,

sat on the tarmacfor,like,two hours.

I don't know how the
airlinesget away with that.

We circled parisfor
at least an hour--

sarah,tell me a good story.

I don't want to have
to firemy chemo buddy.

I met a guy.

You did?

Fine,fine. Put me throughto the broker.

Uh,now most of our couples doa

I mean,what do you ink,nora?

Well,I-I think--I thinkyou

Feel what?

Well,feel that it's right.

Feel that it's likeyou and justin.

well,I mean,justin likes water.

Uh,I'm so sorry.

So where were we?

Uh,why don't we go upstairs?

We have a fantastic
areafor the brid suite.

Are they shooting a movie?

Are you shootinga movie here?

Uh,yes. Well,you know,we rent the
space outfor a variety of events.

I thought they'd be done by now.

Must be a priodiece.

I-I think it is.

whAt period?

olden times.

Yes.I can't keep up.

but why don't we go
lookat the bridal suite?

Shall we?

I'm sorry.

are they shooting porn?

Really?

Here,now?

Well,now--now we don'trent out the
space for filmingon the weekends.

And I would be happyto
throw in free valet.

Free valet.

oh,no.I don't think so,no.

Go,go.

We can get to the
streetthis way,can't we?

go right downthese stairs.

This wasn't supposed to happen.

we need to discussthe kitty issue.

Ternal polls are showinga drop.

First of all,can we pleasenot refer

to my wife's illnessas the kitty issue?

Okay,sorry.

but if we don'tget kitty out thereand
show the publicshe's behind you,

this is just gonna get worse.

No,it'll be worse if we do.

They'll think we're using her.

It's a risk,I agree,but
we can't do nothing.

Look,kevin--a-and jotthis
down if you have to,

because I'm--I'm
notgonna say it again--

kitty's well-beinghas nothing
to do withthe state of california

or myintegrity or my job performance.

- Why can't we say that?
- We did say that.

We--we said
that explicitly.

Yeah,and they didn't hear you.

You know why?

It came from the wrong mouth.

A statement at the least.

- No,I'm not gonna use her.
- I willhelp her draft it myself.

No,do
not--kevin,back o--

there is too much in playfor
you to see this clearly.

Leave kitty alone.

She and ihave made a decision.

And that should be good
enoughfor everybody!

Including you.

Spend the most importantday of your
lifein the opulentastin ballroom.

Details include fine linenswith
buttercup or eggshell,

silver,gold or
blackchiavari chairs--

what's chiavari?

Well,it's that.That's a chiavari chair.

Okay,wait. W-what else is in
this--this love in the afternoonpackage?

A love in the after--it
includesa chocolate fountain.

yeah,the idea of the walkersin the
same roomwith five tiers of hot,

moltenchocolate is pretty rrifying.

all of these packages--they're
like--the'yre like...

a slightly different versionof
the same generic wedding.

Oh,well,maybe your momhas some
ideashow to personalize it.

Yeah,if she would everget off the phone.

sweetie,you know what? If you don't
like this venue,then we should just go.

There are plenty of othersto look at.

Yeah,maybe we should.

so what do you think?

Does this place have potential?

- Uh,no.We're moving on.
- We just got here.

Well,maybe it seems that waybecause
you've been onhe phonethe entire time,

but--rebecca,I was onlyon
the phone for five minutes.

Look,why don't wenot make any
decisionuntil we tour the grounds?

Why,so we can just sign a
checkand get the search over with?

I mean,I know that this isan
inconvenience for you,clearly,but--

- you know,I-I don't think
that...- that's not what I'm saying.

I'm saying how can you
makean informed decision

withoutchecking out the entire venue.

Because I've seen enoughto
know that it's not right.

I mean,ask nora. You
eitherfeel it or you don'T.

Okay,I-I thinkthere
is something to that.

- But--but sti,you--but... - what,mom?
You've never done this before.

Nora has,multiple times.

I mean,kevin and scotty'swedding was
perfect,and it was--it was so them.

I want that for justin and me.

Oh,so what you're saying is that you
want to have your wedding at nora's?

Well,she's sitting right here.

- So why don't you just
ask her? - You know,that--

If youwould just listen
for once,you would know

that's notwhat I'm saying at all.

- I'll tell themI'll call them right back.
- Take it.Take it.

That's what you'd
ratherbe doing anyways.

- Rebecca,please.
- Take the call.

- I don't have to take it.
- Nora,I'm sorry we wasted yourtime.

To think that we
couldactually do this together?

- It's unbelievable.-
Rebecca,don't be this--

careful.

You'll severthe radial artery.

Hey,can you back up?

It's pretty hard to focus
whenyou're breathing down my neck.

Not bad.

- Uh,thanks.
- Thank you.

Justin,can you come byand see
me tomorrowduring office hours?

Uh,yeah.

Everything... all right?

Just want to discussa few things.

Yeah,yeah,I'll be there.

Great.

this is aboutlast week's quiz.

Damn it.

I thought I nailed it.We studied
that for,like,six straight hours.

god,why does hewant to talk to me?

I told him I wantedto
switch lab partners.

- What?
- Sorry,nothing personal.

But I just need
someonewho's 100% committed.

Wait a second.You told
madsenI wasn't committed?

You show up late.

Yeah,and you freaked
outwhen you saw a cadaver.

I didn't go running to madsen.

That was once,this is a pattern.

You know what?Screw you.

Back up,carter.

here we go.

P.Mini marshmallows,oven-fried
chicken,mac and cheese and pudding.

God,how do I get your diet?

Oh,sorry.That was insensitive.

It's okay.

I-I guess mom is
tryingto spark my appetite

by bringing out all my
oldchildhood favorites.

but... oh,no way.

I'm not hungry.

I don't care.

You are going to eat.

All right,I'll eat...

If you tell me moreabout mr.Frenchy.

It's a deal.

You never made it to that
wineryyou were looking for,did you?

Not that week,no.

Week?

It was amazing.

stop blocking your face.

you're making meself-conscious.

Your face,it is powerful
and soft...like you.

What do you know about me,except
for my inabilityto read a map?

Your expressions--it
tells me many things.

For example...your brow,your jaw...

sarah,you're a womanwho's in control.

You like control.

Your eyes and your smile...

they say something different.

You want to be wild,give
in to your impulses.

Did they teach you thatat art school?

No. It's something I simply see.

What elsedo you simply see?

That you're slow to trust.

Maybe a little.

But you want to let go.

Hello.

Hello. Should I come back?

- Yeah,yeah.
- No,no,yeah. No,no,no.

- Uh,you'll stay,I'll go.
- No,no,no.

- We'll,uh,continue this tomorrow.
- Oh,tomorrow?

- Keep her hydrated,will you?
- Yeah,yeah. Thanks.

No problem. I'll call you tomorrow.

when I'm better,we're going to france.

Wherever you want.

- How's evan? - Oh,his--his
cold'sgetting better.

The doctor says he's almostwell
enough to be around you.

Oh,good,good. 'Cause
I-I really miss him.

Tommy. he sent a very nice note.

So how was it?

Uh,it wasn't,uh...it wasn't as
scaryas I thought it would be.

And I--I'm
definitelynauseated,though.

Here.

- At's that?
- Acupressure.

If I put pressureright on
your palm,it reduces nausea.

How come I never knew
aboutthis skill before?

'Cause I justlooked it up online.

I'm just... happy to be
ableto do something to help.

Are you gonna make me
askabout the press conference?

It went fine.

- Fine?
- Yeah.

That's it?

But you--but you
alwaystell me everything,

right down to the distractingsheen

on the loafersof ted from the times.

Usylly,mwifeisn't just
finishingher first round of chemo.

What were the numbers? I bet you're
down with women. What--what are they?

We took a hit.

- But I'm not worried.
- You always worry. That's why you win.

All right,well,this time,I'm gonna win

and I'm not gonna
worry. How's that sound?

- Like a lie.
- Come here.

Just leave...california out there.

In here,it's just you and me.

Hey.

- Uh-oh. -
Uh-oh,what?

You're folding socks.

You only fold sockswhen you're upset.

well,we don't havea wedding
venueand my mother and ifought today.

- Oh,well,that sucks.
- Yeah. How was your day?

Remember that
oncologyinternship I applied for?

Oh,no. You didn't get it?

Oh,that's up in the
air,but check this out.

So carter decides to tellprofessor
madsenthat he wantsa new lab partner.

- What?
- Yeah. He says I can't handlethe workload that I already got.

Doogie thinks you can'thack it?

What a tool.

all right,so what's going
onwith the venue things?

I mean,I had no ideathat
wedding stuffis so cookie cutter.

- It's just not us.
- All right. So what wouldmake it personal?

Becca,I surewhen you were a little girl,you
know,you had plansabout your wedding.

Kitty and sarah used
toplay bride all the time.

So did kevin.

well,I didn'T. I mean--I-I
mean,it's not like

I had some wedding album of my
mother's to look through,you know?

I... I think you havea defective bride.

Rebecca,I don't havea
defective bride... at all.

Well,I don't know. I don't know.

I... I think maybeyou
should plan the weing.

yeah. Well,unless you
wantchili dogs and chicken wings

at a dodger game,that's
probably a bad idea.

how's kitty?

She's asleep.

Great.

God,she's tough.

according to sarah,they had fun today.

Good.

I'm glad sarah's back.

Kitty needs you guys.

How are you holding up?

Good.

So I assume you don't wantan update
on the polls,which are still down.

Correct assumption.

Uh,well,let's see,in otherimportant
state matters--oh,yeah,

madera countywould like your support

in their campaignto
change the state bird.

How about the ostrich? They're so cute.

You know,they do that
wholehead-burying-in-the-sand thing.

I'm not burying my headin the sand.

Yes,you are. Come on,robert.

You march into that officeand
act like you're working.

- We all know what's going
on-- - what do you want from me?

- You do realize,kitty will notlet you quit this campaign?
- I haven't quit.

No,you've stopped running,because
you knowif you do nothing,

your whole campaignwill
fall apart on its own,

and you can tell
kittyyou tried your best.

Reality is,you're sabotagingyour
chances,and you know it.

Kevin,stay out of it.

hey,how are you feeling?

Oh,I feel likeI want to vomit,and
the deep breaths are notcutting it,

so please,you need to tell me the end.

It was a vacation romance.

And... like vacations...it ended.

Oh,I know. But just
tell me--tell me how.

- Sarah? Are you there?
- Yeah.

you know...he... he
wasn'twho I thought he was.

The last day I was
there,I went for a walk.

- sarah-- -
who was at?

- I must explain.
- Don't bother.

I'm so sorry.

You wonderwhy I don't trust.

No,no,no.
Whoa,whoa,whoa,whoa,whoa,whoa,whoa.

No,no,wait
a--wait a second.

I know this.

- You go back to your
car,and it doesn't start.

and then you go backto t farmhousewith
the both of them. It's the movie.

- What movie?

This whole time,you've been telling me

the plot of that french movie

that mom used to lovewhen we were kids.

Okay,you're right. You busted me.

I'm sorry.

You mad at me?

No,I'm not mad.

I'M... you took my
mindoff of everything.

I'm--I'm just very
sadthat you didn't get to

havea love affair
with a hunky frenchman.

Yeah... me,too.

Hey,where'd you go? I thought
you were next to methe whole time?

Oh. You're not robert.

He's at the drug
storefilling a prescription.

But I can sit with youif you
want. That's why I'm here.

Are you allowed to have that?

that blog waright.

Chemo definitely makesthe
beer taste better.

- Could I?
- Get your own. I have cancer.

So,um...robert's been
gettingreally beat up

for not suspendinghis campaign,right?

He told you?

Nope. He didn't have to.

- how bad is it?
- You know what? I wouldn't say that bad.

Well,that's becausehe won't let you.

But what's the plan?
What's the counterstrategy?

Oh,great. You don't have one.

You know what? I'm kinda caught
here betweena rock and his wife,

- so can we just-- - oh,you
know what? Come on,kevin.

He's not doing anything.

It's--it's like the
rope-a-dope with no plan of

coming off the ropesand
actually throwingany punches.

All right. So what are we gonna do?

Let him suspend--a
clean,dignified break.

Why let him limpthrough a campaignhe
doesn't even wantto be a part?

All he wants is to be herewith you.

Well,too bad. He can'T.

Why not? You know,you keep asking
usto keep on living normally.

Well,you know what? People put
things on holdwhen people are sick.

- No,no,no,we're not gonnaput anything on hold...
- yes,they do. Take care of yourwife.

- That's acting normally!
- Because if he quits,and idon't survive this,then what?

Don't--please do
notgo there,okay?

Well,I have to go there,kevin.
I don't have a choice.

Now you are either in
denialof who robert is or

you'rein denial of how
thingsmay turn out for me,okay?

If he quits,and I die,then what?

Anwe're notgonna let that happen.

And you are nnahelp
me,kevin,because robert needs this,

- especially if-- -
please,one condition.

- What? -
No more if-G.

You're getting better. That's that.

Okay,fine. I'm getting better.

so how do we help him?

I think I have an idea.

Look,sir,I-I know that goingfor an
internship right nowmay not bethe best idea,

but--has someone in your
familybeen diagnosed with cancer?

Yeah. Um...my sister kitty.

It's lymphoma,stage iii.

- How did--how did you know that---
because I've seen this before--

a-a sudden academic fire,newfound
interest in oncology.

I'm sorry.

I--you know,I-I--that's--I'm--I
just wantto help somehow.

And there's nothing wrongwith that,

and many of the
greatestadvances in medicine,

in every branch of science,has been made

by people who havevery personal motives.

Then--then why is goingfor
an internship a bad idea?

Justin,because there isa right way

and a wrong wayto go about things.

Taking on so muchin your first year,

and then,god forbid,you fail?

How does that help anybody?

Yeah,you're--you're
right. I-I-I get it.

And now...about carter.

carter,yeah. He,uh,he
wants a new lab partner.

Well,he is brilliant.

So he tells me.

But he's so afraid of failurethat
he can't think straight.

Yeah,well,me,too.

But you have more
practicallife experience

than any student I've hadin years.

And he's had less lifethan
anyone I've ever met.

So what,you--you want
meto get him laid or--

no,mr.Walker. I want you
to teach himby example

how to get along with
peoplein the real world.

Yeah,I...yeah,I
c--I can do that.

Good. And look,someday you may
becomean extraordinary oncologist,

able to help peoplelike your sister.

But every journey
startswith the first step.

And in this case,the
first step is the hand.

Start with the hand.

I left my cell phonein the car.

I'm surprised that
youwanted to meet me here.

- No,I-I asked you becauseI
wanted your opinion. - Yeah.

But,uh,I also really needto
apologize. I'm--I'm sorry.

I-I was frustrated,and
I took it out on you,

and I shouldn't have.

I promise I won't beall bridezilla

for the rest ofthe wedding planning.

you weren't that bad.

And I'm sureit was really annoying,

me picking up the phoneall the time.

No,no. Is everything okay?

Yeah. Everything is great now.

I got enough juicethat

we can start productionon our new blend.

- That's great.
- It's great.

But today is about youand your wedding.

So what do you thinkabout this place?

Mom.

Is it me,or doall of these places suck?

No,you're right.

None of these places have
beenright for you and justin.

So let's just takea step back,all right?

Okay,so now when you
thinkabout your wedding,

what do you picture?

I don't have a picture.

I mean,where was iwhen
all of these little girls

were staging fake
weddingsin their bedrooms?

Outside in the
backyardsplashing in the mudand

- begging meto let you stay outfor five more minutes,please,mommy.
- I remember.

You would stay outas
long as I would let you.

You and that stuffed dolphinthat I got
you at sea world,running through the ferns.

- Awoka-woka.
- Awoka-what?

- Awoka-woka.
That's it. - What?

Mom,I-I think I knowwhere
we should get married.

Great.

Thank you.

If you're not up for
company,I could come back.

No,no,I am. Come on in.

How are you feeling?

I'm tired,but,you know,I'm
actually not that bad.

Good. Or not good.

No,I... it's good.

mom,are you--are you
angryabout yesterday?

no. I am... over it.

Whatever it was,I'm over it.

You're the one that
knowswhat's best for you,

and whatever you
wantor don't want--

just tell me what to do,and I'll do it.

Mom,you're already doing it.

I feel likeI'm not doing enough.

Well,you can't cure me.

I wish I could pull
every bitof that cancer

out of youand put it in me instead.

I wish it were me.

I know. That's why I couldn'thave
you with me yesterday.

I didn't want to put youthrough that,

and--and besides,if
you cry,I cry.

did sarah do okay?

Yeah,sarah--sarah
did great.

- Just--aah.
- What?

No,it's just this--this,uh,injection
siteis just pretty sore.

I don't know. Dr.Avadonsaid they're
gonna maybeput in a chest catheter.

It makes it easier.

I don't want to cry.

it's okay.

you can cry.

Are you at a good placeto take a break?

Sure,if you canhelp me
rememberthe erector spinae muscles.

There's
iliocostalis,uh,longissimus,spinalis.

going on?

Okay,um,so you knowhow you said that,

you know,little girlsplay bride?

Well,I-I didn'T.

But I did playthe isle of awoka-woka.

I would go outsidewith
my littlestuffed animal--

bradmore--this
little dolphin,

and we'd great strand...Bradmore?
On a deserted island.

But instead of--instead
ofbeing sad,we would be happy,

because,you know,there werepalm trees

and tiki torchesand--and
coconut desserts,

and it was just--it
was perfect.

And it was everythingthat I ever want

edon this--this
little island.

Please tell me this
meansa wedding in hawaii.

- Oh,I love that.
- Yeah?

- I love that.
- Yeah? I mean,you can surf.

Uh-oh. Maybe a little bitof this?

- Yeah.
- A little of that.

- A little hula dancing.
- Yeah.

- A little bit of this.
- look at your spinalis!

What do you say to peoplethat think

that robert should suspendhis campaign?

Well,I would say thatthat would be

a real tragedyfor the
people of california.

California needsrobert mccallister.

And he will be there for us.

He'll be there for all of us.

You know,robert needs
tocontinue to fight his battle

just like I need to
continue to fight mine.

and I don't think you'll find either
one of uscowering in the corner.

- what is this?
- Your polls going up. Her idea.

I also truly believethat robert has

this uncanny ability to stay focused...

even when he needs to
make hard judgments.

You seem well,kitty,and I mean
you soundincredibly positivein

light of thisdifficult situation.

How do you achieve that?

With a lot of help.

I am surrounded by--by
so much love and support.

Ever since my diagnosis,my
husband,my mother,my siblings--

everybody has really...
really rallied around me.

hey,mom. It's so funny you called.

I was just in thisgorgeous patisserie.

They had those little pastriesyou love.

she's got what?

Oh,my...

I'll be home tomorrow. Okay.

Sarah. What's wrong?

it's my sister. I've gotta go home.

I've gotta go. I'm sorry.

Sah.

thank you forspeaking
with us today,kitty.

Well,thank you. It's my pleasure.

that was pundit and
blogger kitty mccallister,

the wife of senator robert
mccallister,talking...

I thought we hadan arrangement.

Which one was that?

That you we gonna concentrateon getting
welland leave the campaigningto me.

Right,right. But you weren't
holding upyour end of the bargain.

It's not healthy for you.

You need to ignore it.

Well,then you need
toallow me to ignore it.

Stop throwing the game.

That's your--your
plan,right?

I'd still be a senator.

I just wouldn't be min
theiddle of this campaign.

No,I know what this is about.

This is about us. This is
about--this about us... before.

What if I'm notthat guy anymore?

What if I don't want itat any cost?

Because I know that you arethe
most important thing to me.

And I didn't know that before.

And I...I'm ashamed of that.

Honey...you don't owe me anything.

Yes,I do.

Well,then you can't
stopbeing an example.

What do you mean?

You never give up.

I don't nt youto give up now.

Please.

All right.

Pardon me. I lost.

I was wonderingif you could help me.
