Hello and Goodbye
Original Air Date on August 18, 2009

Tom: Your white blood cell
count's up.

I-I don't understand why

this antibiotic isn't working.

It made me nauseous.

Well, you have to
take it with food.

He tried, but --

You stopped taking it?

Well, I wish you
would have told me



because now
you have an infection.

Can you give him
something else?

Of course.

But the point is
this infection jeopardizes

your acceptance
into the clinical trial.

You're not taking away
his spot?

Can't we fix this
somehow?

Start over with the pills?
Get his fever down?

Oh, we can get the fever down.
That's not a problem.

Here, you have to
take this, okay?

What about the trial?

Well, Max, if you get in --
And that's an "if" --

You have to promise me
you'll take your medication.

You can't just go off your meds
without telling anybody.



You know, for one,
it screws up the results,

and, secondly, it's
not fair to Dr. Cohen

or the other subjects.

He promises.

Well, I need to
hear it from you.

Promise.

All right,
I'll see what I can do.

Please.

If he doesn't get in...

I'm sure it'll work out.

mm.

[sirens wailing in distance]

Woman on p.a.:

Dr. Reynolds to O.R. 1.

Dr. Reynolds to O.R. 1.

Hey, Bobbie,
What's he in for?

Is this
about his cancer?

Ask him yourself.

Hey, girl.

David, what happened?

Skydiving into a rosebush.

But you know something?
It could have been much worse.

So, this is about you
jumping out of a plane?

Yep.

Well, at least you had
your parachute on this time.

Did you call
for a psych consult?

(Tom) No, she called me.

- Hey, David.
- Hey.

Ooh, nice.

So, last month,
skateboarding injury.

What'd you do
this time?

Skydiving.

Skydiving?

Skydiving.

I like skydiving.

Oh, hey, you want to go
with me on Saturday?

Sure.

Want to go?

Uh, so I can leave Camille
an orphan

just in case
one of those thingies jam?

Uh, I don't think so.

Suit yourself.

I need some 4-0 prolene.
Be right back.

Tom.

Well, I'm glad
to see he's got

this whole "living life
to the fullest" thing down.

-I should get that 4-0.
- No.

Tom, what aren't you
telling me?

His cancer's back.
Stage four.

Then, what the hell is he doing
jumping out of planes?

Why isn't he upstairs?

'cause he doesn't
want to be.

How long
have you known this?

Couple weeks.

Why didn't you tell me?

Look, we discussed
telling you.

And you decided
not to tell me.

No, David decided not to.

He didn't want you to know.

[ siren wailing ]

Hi, guys.
Bay 3.

No, absolutely not.
Back outside.

Come on, Bobbie, you just

got to let me talk to you.

I told you yesterday
and the day

before -- until you bring back

what you stole from me,

we have nothing to discuss.

- But Bobbie...
- You heard her,

back outside.

How about I just wait for you in the
corner until you get finished here?

I have patients
to care for, Isabel.

You are not a patient.

Now, get out
before I call security.

Hey.

Oh. Nurse Stein.

Uh, I think
we need to talk.

Oh?

About what happened
the other day.

- What happened?
- You know.

What day was that?

Izz, Come on, you know
what I'm talking about.

Oh, yeah, that day.
Right.

Listen. We both know
it was a mistake.

Come on, we don't
even like each other.

- Ah?
- Not that I don't think

you're a smart and --
an..and strong..and

sexy woman.

Wow. Go on, please.

Yeah, I just think that

we can be really good friends.

Okay, let me help you
out here, Steiny.

I think what you want to say
is it was a mistake,

let's put it behind us
and move on.

Yeah.

Because
the most important thing

is that we preserve
our working relationship,

- Yes.
- Act professionally,

- Professionally.
- Right?

- Priorities, yeah.
- Absolutely.

- Okay.
- Okay. Good.

So, uh, yeah, hey,

like, should we...

Oh, that's not
necessary. No.

Okay.
Good. Good.

See you later, Doctor.

Good.

[Camille ]
Damn, grandma,

your job rocks!

I know.

I mean, we talk
to paramedics,

we order new artwork
for the lobby,

we get our nails done.

You know, I think, when
I grow up, I want to be you.

Oh, thank you, sweetheart.

I can't tell you how long
I've waited to hear those words.

To tell you the truth,
I was terrified

you were gonna decide
to become a nurse.

But to be honest with you,

my life is not as easy
as it seems.

I mean, being
a strong, powerful woman

is often a thankless job.

Men are afraid of you.

Women are threatened by you.

You know, the truth is,
a powerful woman

often stands alone.

How about a snack?

I have some
nutrition bars.

I recommend the ones
that are beefed up

with a lot of fiber.

They're my secret weapon.

Never underestimate the
importance of regular bowels.

Grandma!

What? It's a natural function
of the body.

No, you see, the thing is,
I'm supposed to, like,

write a report
on all this stuff, so...

So, write this down.

"good things come
to those who wait...

And to those
who eat fiber."

(Christina)
Hey, David!

Oh, look at you--
I got to go, Christina!

Wait!

Sorry. Got to go.

- David
- I love you, but goodbye.

Oh, David.

Let me just stop you
right there, okay?

What, I haven't
said anything yet.

But you will, Christina.
You always do.

You are gonna try to convince me
to check myself back in, right?

So you can save me,
so we can beat this thing,

so we can find
yet another miracle.

And what's so wrong
with that, huh?

Wouldn't you want that?

You know what I did
this morning?

What?

I had waffles
with my brother.

Now, up until a month ago,

Greg and I hadn't spoken
in seven years, Christina.

I mean, you know this.
Seven years.

But this morning,
we had breakfast,

and we just laughed
and laughed.

So, when I say I'm okay,
I really am okay.

Shoot, I can't even stand
being in this parking lot.

And you know why?

Because I want to be
out there somewhere.

Listen.

When I went into remission,

you

told me to live my life,
remember?

yes.

And I am.

So...

Unless you've got some miracle
cure hidden away somewhere...

Maybe I do have
a miracle.

There's a clinical trial
going on right now

with a very promising
drug, David.

Yeah, Tom and I talked
about that.

This is your life.

You have got to
at least try.

Now, I'm your friend.
Would I steer you wrong?

Do you really think
you can get me in?

My name is
Christina Hawthorne.

Oh ho ho!

I cannot believe
I'm gonna say this.

Okay, Christina, okay.

I'll make it happen.

Thank you.

Enjoy that beautiful ride
right there.

Ha, ha.

[ car door open tones ]

[ door opens ]

[ car door closes ]

And I know how much
you like our toothpaste,

so I'm throwing in
a few extra tubes

for you to take home
with you.

See?

Mommy.

You're so welcome.

I'm gonna miss you, too.

So much, I can't even say.

But (sighs) your pneumonia
is completely gone now,

so that's a wonderful,
wonderful thing.

Let's focus on that.

Well...

This is it.

I'll be on 2 West.

Yeah, that's cool.

Well, I had to promise them
my firstborn, but you're in.

Oh, thank god!

I can't believe it.

So, I'll have a nurse
help you settle in.

But please remember
that being in the trial

is no guarantee
of anything.

Don't worry.
We know.

We're just happy
to get the chance,

just getting into the trial
is a miracle.

Thank you, Tom.

You're welcome.

- Thanks.
- You're welcome.

Oh, this is Christina Hawthorne,
our chief nursing officer.

This is Max
and Janice Miller.

Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

Thank you again, Tom.

You're very welcome.

Hey, listen,
I need a favor.

I need you to get David into
Dr. Cohen's clinical trial.

Don't you think
that if the clinical trial

was even an option, I would
have tried it weeks ago?

But, "A," the trial is full.

And, "B," David's not even
a candidate. Forget it.

Getting him into the trial
is completely impossible.

Okay? Just trust me
on this one.

Tom, come on, the guy
gets a new passion for life

and now you just expect him
to give up?

Come on, that's not fair.

David understands all of that.

He's made peace with it.

I just spoke with him.

Please tell me
you didn't give him false hope.

David needs to
take this shot.

He doesn't want it.

Okay, I'm his doctor.

We've reviewed all the options.

Christina, you're always
asking people to trust you.

Trust me on this one.

Leave it alone.

Okay.

Christina.

What?

Leave it alone.

It's been proven scientifically
that caffeine makes you smarter.

Ask the French, Camille.

You bet.

Gracias, Ramone.

Oh no,
you keep the quarter.

The name's "Dan."

Now, you'll notice
that I was at all times

both courteous and respectful
with that employee.

You see, one of the tricks
of the powerful woman

is that she presents herself
more submissive

than she truly is,

thus disorienting
her opponent.

You see, your mother
treats every confrontation

like it's being held in
the stands of a tractor pull.

Now, you may wonder,

is that coffee-cart worker
really an opponent?

To which I respond,
"they're all opponents."

(Dr. Cohen)
This man is stage four.

I realize that.

Then you realize you're
asking for the impossible.

This trial is for patients
in stage two.

He is quite a fighter.

I've already filled
the last spot.

Come on.

You can open another slot.

I wish Mr. Gendler luck.

Now, if you'll excuse me...

Did I tell you that he went
into remission for six months?

Now, that in itself
is a miracle.

Makes him
a very unique candidate.

Can any of your other patients
in your study make that claim?

He still doesn't qualify.

Even if I added
another slot,

I still wouldn't let
Mr. Gendler into the trial.

It wouldn't be fair.

I'm a chief nursing officer
at Richmond Trinity.

Have you ever conducted
any of your studies out

of our hospital?

Not yet, but I've had
something under consideration

for almost a year now.

And I did mention that my name
is Christina Hawthorne.

Amanda Hawthorne happens
to be my mother-in-law.

I- I didn't know.

Well, the whole black
and white thing gets

people a little confused.

But Amanda also stands
very strongly

behind important research.

Are you saying
that if I get David Gendler

into this trial,

you'll get Amanda Hawthorne
to consider

my research proposal?

What I'm saying is that opening

another slot couldn't hurt.

It still isn't likely that a man
as far-gone as Mr. Gendler

would even make it
through the trial, but --

Does that mean he's in?

He's in.

Thank you.

Yeah.

Dr. Panelle to peds.

Dr. Panelle to peds.

Hi.

Ray.

I was just thinking
about you.

-Yeah, uh (chuckles)
-That's weird.

You look amazing, by the way.
What -- something --

Oh, yeah,
it's your scrubs.

Ray, Ray, listen.

[buzzer]

Okay. I'm listening.

We need to talk.

Okay, um, just hold on
before you say anything.

Before you say anything,

I started
a new allergy medicine,

and it has made me
temporarily insane.

What?

(whistles)

Nuts.

[ beep, beep ]
[ continues ]

Oh. Oh, crap.

I got to go.

Okay, you know what,
this is really important.

Okay, I will find you later.

I promise.

Really.

Um...

(knocks)

Dr. Marshall?

Ah, nurse Stein.
Pager on the fritz?

I just got the page.

On a break?

No. Yes, I was.

Yeah, have a snack?

A burger, maybe? Some fries?

Oh, that sounds delicious.

What did you have today,
Mr. Campbell?

Jell-O.

Ugh. Jell-O.

Jell-O.

Well, that sounds
good, too.

(chuckles)

He's also supposed to be having
I.V. fluids, nurse Stein,

but it appears
his I.V. line is clogged.

Oh, let me get that fixed
for you right away, sir.

Yeah. Are you sure?

Because we don't want
to interrupt your busy

schedule, nurse Stein.

Sometimes with this nurse,

his priorities
get a little out of whack.

You let me know if you have
more troubles, okay?

-Thank you.
- You're welcome.

Excuse me.

(Over P.A.)
Dr. Hammond, O.R. 1.

Okay, excuse me,

What was that?

What was what?

Hey, you said you wouldn't
let what happened

affect our
working relationship.

Right, well, this is our working
relationship, Stein.

I'm the doctor
and you're the nurse.

Did you tell Candy?

Who's Candy?

Oh, come on.

Oh, you mean that little
blond-nurse person?

What, are you guys --

No, no.

Good, because that'd be very
unprofessional, wouldn't it?

Yep.

So, we'll get you
in a gown,

and we'll get
some bloodwork done.

I still can't believe
this is happening.

You better believe it.

Yeah, but how
did you do it?

Oh. Don't you worry
about that, okay?

You just worry
about getting better.

You really think I'll make it
through this trial?

Are you kidding me?

Coming from a guy
who survived

jumping off a roof
and then went into remission?

Please. I think you can do
just about anything you want.

You really are
a miracle-worker, aren't you?

I try.

I'll be back.

- Bobbie.
- Yeah?

I got a goodbye card
for Mr. Fleming.

Will you sign it?

You're so sweet.

Here.

Did you get him a gift?

Oh, I thought
the card was a gift.

You know what he loves?

Chocolates.

He stole a couple
off my desk last week.

He was in heaven.

Oh, okay, great idea.
I'll get him chocolates.

But nothing with nuts in it.
The nuts get in his dentures.

Ray! Wait.

What's up?

I need to talk to you.

W- wait, wait.

It was an accident.

And I never intended
to make out with Marshall.

Okay?

(laughs)

You made out
with Marshall?!

(whispers)
You made out with Marshall?

(chuckles)

Oh, boy,

Why is this
happening to me?

Wow!

I, uh, was just gonna give you
a heads-up on a patient.

But let's talk about your thing.
It's way more fun.

I thought you were
in love with Candy.

I am in love with Candy.

How do you know that?

Everybody knows that.

What do you mean everybody?

Who's everybody?

Well, people who work here,
people who don't work here,

people who live
under rocks.

It was an accident, okay?

I told you that.

I don't know
what that means.

You -- you slipped and your
tongue fell in her mouth?

Sort of. And now
she's got it out for me.

And what am I gonna
tell Candy?

- Well --
- I could tell her that Marshall

is a pathological liar.

Or, you know what,
I could say it wasn't me.

Or I could kill Marshall,

and I could just dump
her body in a swamp.

Or you could tell Candy
the truth.

No, that'll never work.

No, trust me. It's always best
to be up front with people.

Yeah, you're right.

Now, tell the truth --

Does Marshall have
a tiny, secret penis?

I have to go now.

[ Bobbie ]
(laughing)

(knocks)

Hey.

You wanted to see me?

I just got off the phone
with Cohen.

You bumped my patient.

What?

Don't pretend
like you don't know.

Tom, all I did
was ask Cohen --

By bumping my patient.

I didn't think she was--

No, you didn't think, Christina,
did you? You never do.

And not only did you
completely disregard

my opinion on this
and go behind my back,

you did something I specifically
told you not to do

instead of
just trusting me.

Okay, can you
just calm down?

Don't tell me to calm down!

I'm Chief of Surgery!

I am not some intern punk
you can just steamroll over.

David is dying.

And I have a patient
who fits the profile perfectly,

someone we can save,

and you just tossed him aside
like he was nothing.

And now you've sentenced
a man to death

to try and save someone
who can't be saved.

I'm done, Christina.
I can't take this anymore.

What the hell is that
supposed to mean?

It means you act like
you own this damn place,

and your job is to make

sure the rest of us
don't screw things up.

Well, I got news for you --

I've been running interference
for your ass

all over this damn hospital,

and the one time I ask you

to respect my decision,

to respect me...

You stab me in the back
like that?

(sighs)

I'm sorry if --

Just save it.

Save it, okay?

I don't need your
half-assed apologies,

'cause you don't care.

And one last thing --

You want to butt heads
with Morrissey and Amanda

and whoever the hell else,
go ahead, be my guest.

But interfere
with my patients?

Not a chance in hell.

We're through, Christina.
I'm done.

I don't get it.
I did what you asked.

No, no, no, I didn't ask you
to bump another patient.

Okay? I asked you
to open a new slot

I did!

No, you didn't.

You bumped
Wakefield's patient.

Please.
Don't give me that.

You know how the game
is played.

It sounds like you have
a decision to make.

Two folders, two patients.

The trial starts tomorrow.

Which one is in?

Max Miller.
Gendler's out.

"love, Candy"?

I only wrote "your friend."

Yeah, what can I say?

I have a lot of love
in my heart today.

Do we have any white-out?

Aha!

Yep.

Here you go.

I'm getting him a cake, too.

We're having
a little celebration

at the end of the day.

Is Ray gonna be there?

Yeah.

Everyone will.

I thought it'd be great
for him, you know?

Everyone together
one last time.

What time?

End of shift.

Mario in the kitchen
is hooking me up.

You know what,
don't let Ray leave

until I get there, got it?

Uh-huh.

Goodbyes
are really important.

I know.

(Isabel)
I want Bobbie Jackson!

That's the only nurse I want!

I don't want you. Somebody page

Bobbie Jackson, please.

[ curtains opening ]

Damn it.

Self-inflicted?

She wouldn't
let me touch her.

Let me guess -- you got into
a fight with a one-legged man?

(laughing)

Yeah, something like that.

You in pain?

Not too bad.

Let's take a look.

Heinz or Hunt's?

Squeezy packets
from Whataburger.

You are so out of here.

Come on, Bobbie.
I had to do it.

It was the only way you
was gonna let me apologize.

That titanium leg
is worth as much as a car.

Besides which, it's my leg.

I'm sorry.

Okay.

You've apologized.
So we're done.

Wait, no, no, Bobbie. Come on.

Wait. Just give me five minutes.

Two.

I don't know what I was
thinking. I just wanted the leg.

I don't know.
To borrow it or something.

But then everybody
thought it was cool,

and everybody wanted it,

so I traded it,

and then the next day,
I felt bad

and I went after
the boy who got it.

I wanted to give it
back to you, but by then,

my boy had sold it,
and he said

it went to mean Marco,
and I'm sorry, baby girl, but

that's where I draw the line,
'cause he's crazy-mean,

and I would have never
got it away from him,

so I had to give it up.

Okay.

What --

What you mean, "okay"?

Okay, as in,
apology accepted.

It's my fault, really.

Your fault?

Forget it.

Let's go.

Oh.

What?

It's your fault
for ever letting me

in your house
in the first place.

I'm saying
I forgive you.

You're thinking you got what
you deserved for being stupid --

Inviting a crazy woman
from the streets

to crash on your couch.

And there I was, thinking
you wanted to be my friend.

(woman)
Wow!

(Candy)
Yeah, I didn't want

to say anything
until I was

absolutely sure.

(Brenda)
Oh. Understandable.

Thank you.

Yep.

W- what was that all about?

Hello, nurse Stein.

What did you say to Candy?

Who's Candy?

And why are your ears so red?

Cut it out.
Just cut it out!

Cut what out?

Look, just stop it.

I'm sorry if I hurt
your feelings.

Oh, please.

Okay, you know something,
Marshall?

I see right through you!

Yeah, I think
you act all tough and mean

because you don't want
to admit to yourself

that even though you're this
highly successful surgeon,

right, with this
great reputation,

really, you're just
a lonely woman

who goes home to an empty house
and eats TV dinners.

And you're a lonely nurse
who goes home

to a takeout pizza
on a futon bed

and dreams about a
blond nurse who doesn't

even know he exists!

Yeah, you don't know
anything about me, okay?

And you never will,
Marshall!

Because you're too arrogant

to see outside your
little, airless bubble!

And you're not man enough

to know what you want,
much less how to get it!

I know I don't want you!

And you'll never have me!

No, Stein,

because you're a nurse!

Sleeping with you would be
like sleeping with the help!

David, I --

I should make you squirm.

But I just can't do that.

Tom told me already.

I'm so sorry.

Listen, thanks for trying.

I probably shouldn't
have promised to --

No, Christina. Stop.

I'm not gonna let you
beat yourself up

when someone
can't be saved.

I don't need to be saved
anymore, girl.

You have done that for me

a hundred times over.

Thank you.

Is there anything else
I can do?

There is.

You have to let me go.

I know it's hard.

And you know you suck at it.

Let me ask you
a question.

Why are you still wearing
that wedding band

around your neck?

So I can remember Michael.

You won't forget.

So let it go.

Let it all go.

Nobody wants to be
sitting on a cloud

having their paradise ruined

while you're down here
feeling all guilty.

Okay.

Attagirl.

So...

You want to go skydiving
with me?

I promise, you will
never feel more alive.

Okay, sure.

How about a year from now?

(laughs)

Oh, that's cold.

But okay.

Okay. Deal.

Shoot, I'll be there
one way or another.

(laughing)

[ woman on P.A.
speaks indistinctly ]

I'm screwed.

I'm so screwed.

(Kelly)
Do you know the secret

to throwing a great party,
Mr. Fleming?

Preparation.

According to my mom,

preparation
is the key to success.

Mommy.

She also said marrying money
doesn't hurt, either.

Okay, now, remember,
Mr. Fleming.

If we're running low on snacks,

it's fhb -- family, hold back.

All right?

Let's let the fun begin!

♪ Everybody on the

♪ dance floor
- whoo!

♪ Everybody on the dance floor

All right, let's get
this party started!

♪ I'm just dancing
through the night ♪

All right! Okay.

We'll just start with
a little somethin'- somethin'

to get us in the spirit,
right, Mr. Fleming?

Mommy.

My feeling exactly.

Here's to you,
Mr. Fleming.

Oh, yeah. That's nice.

♪ Let's do it
till the break of dawn ♪

♪ let's do it, dance, dance, ♪

♪ let's do it
dance to the rhythm, ♪

♪ dance through the night ♪

♪ come on, baby,
let's do it all night ♪

♪ just shake

[ electric doors opening ]

-You finished?
- Yeah.

(John)
Amanda.

John.

Pardon me
for interrupting.

Do you mind if I join you
for a moment?

No. Please do.

Any idea where your
daughter-in-law is?

I imagine she's off doing
something healthcare-related.

You'd think so,
wouldn't you?

In actuality,
she's been, uh...

visiting neighboring hospitals
this morning,

handing out favors,

using your name,
as a matter of fact.

Really?

Forgive me for saying so,

she's completely
out of control.

She runs around like she's
in charge of this hospital.

But the truth is,
this kind of behavior

is going to have
grave consequences,

and I don't want this hospital
suffering as a result.

She's a loose cannon.

Yes, I --
I know what you mean.

Well, if you see her,

will you tell her
I'm looking for her?

Will do, John.

Thank you.

Excuse me.

(Amanda)
Ah.

Why don't we go
down to the --

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Um, I think I've had
enough for today.

But there's
so much more to see

and I have so much more wisdom
to impart to you.

It's okay. I've got all I need
for my report, anyway.

Darling, I set aside
the whole day

so that we could
spend it together.

I thought we were having
a lovely time.

Why didn't you
stand up for her?

What?

Why did you let him
talk about her like that?

All he said was that
she was a loose cannon.

I know what he said.

Okay, but what he said
was true.

I don't care if what he said
was true, grandma.

It doesn't matter.

You stand up for your
family no matter what.

You know,
ever since dad died --

What?

I'm the kid. I shouldn't ha--

It shouldn't be like this.

I am sick and tired
of having to play the parent

around you and mom!

It's not fair!

It's not my job!

And I don't want
to do it anymore!

You guys are driving me crazy.

Why can't you just get along?!

You two are all I have.

You don't get it.

Camille. Camille!

Ray?

Mm-hmm.
I'm here. I'm here.

I don't remember...

If I remembered
to invite anybody.

It's okay.
It's all right.

Oh, but I do remember
that you need to stay here

until Candy gets here.

What do you mean?

Candy is here.

Candy? Where?

Candy's at the door.

♪ Oh, I'm moving on

Please tell me
this is a costume party.

My, uh --

My unit was called up.

I'm going to Afghanistan
as a combat nurse.

You're kidding me.

No.

How long is the tour?

Six months.

Six months?

♪ It was wrong

You promise me you'll keep
your head on a swivel

and you will take good care
of the troops.

Yeah.

But not the happy-ending
kind of good care.

Promise me

that you'll stop
(inhales)

having scraps
with all the doctors.

mm.

And that, um...

You'll see somebody
while I'm gone.

Oh, yeah, that's me,
the dating machine.

Do you know how hard it is
to say goodbye to you?

(Kelly)
I do.

I had to put my cat, Murray,
down two years ago.

And it's still
really hard on me.

Punch?

Hey.

♪ I was troubled

♪ I was moving on

Mommy!

Sonny!

Sonny!

ohh!

Ohh, (laughs)

Let's get
the hell out of here.

Come on.

Ray.

Yeah?

I know this sounds crazy...

But I was kind of hoping

Mr. Fleming would say my name
just one time.

Just once.

Hey.

Can I come in?

Can I sit down?

Please?

You were right.

About everything.

It's not about David.
It's about Michael.

It's been about Michael.

It's been about Michael for
the past year. It's just --

When he died, I thought

I would crawl under the covers
and never come out.

Instead, I haven't been able
to sit still.

Every patient that comes
in here, I'm just manic.

I must drive you crazy.

I'm sorry.

(sighs) I just thought it's what
made me a good nurse. I...

You've always been
a good nurse.

Did he ever tell you...

About the problems
in our marriage?

We were filing
for divorce.

And then he got sick.

And I was like, "wow, okay,

I know what this is.
This is what I do.

I take care
of sick people for a living.

You know?

The sicker he got,
the more I loved him.

And the more he need me,
the more I needed him.

And we were
finally happy.

And every night,
we would pray.

No, literally,
we would hold hands

and we would
pray together.

Not once...

...not one time...

Did I ever pray
for him to get better.

I didn't want him to die and

I didn't want him to be sick.

But I didn't
want him to get better...

Because it was perfect.

Tom, I loved him
more than --

Than I ever had.

I couldn't help but think...

"what wife does that?"

(sniffles)

(sighs)

No way.

Oh, yes. Way.

I'm good. I ain't feeling
no pain right now --

Then you're in shock.

You should see
the other guy.

Mean Marco?

I'll tell you something
about mean Marco.

He's mean, all right.

But he ain't
got the moves.

We square now?

Actually, no.

Wait, what's the matter?
It get broken or something?

I appreciate
the gesture, Isabel, but

that's not my leg.

(phone ringing)

(laughing together)

I just got played.
You --

Now we're square.

Come on.

You need stitches.

Ohh, I don't want
no charity.

I'm not offering any.

I'm just doing a favor
for a friend.

ohh.

Look, I don't know too much
about it, but I heard

that sometimes friends let
friends crash on their couch.

You know, like,
when it's cold outside,

or sometimes when it's hot,

or even sometimes
when it's medium.

(laughing)

(knocking)

Hey, you busy?

Hey, no.

Come on in.

Where's Camille?

Oh, well...

I guess she had enough of
her cranky old grandma today.

Don't be silly.
You're not old.

(laughing)
ohh.

You know, Christina...

You're not the easiest person
in the world to get along with.

Amanda, can we not do this
today, okay?

'cause I've had
a very long, crazy day.

Actually, it's been
a long, crazy year.

You know, I wasn't
the perfect mother.

And you sure as hell
weren't the perfect wife.

But you were at the end.

You did right
by my son, Christina,

and I never
thanked you for it.

No need.

What else is this about,
Amanda?

It's about Camille.

And us doing right by her.

The truth is...

The whole "son in the urn
on the mantel"

was a tad disturbing.

And Michael
always loved the ocean.

Christina.

Anything
you want to say?

I love you, Dad.

What is that saying?

It's on the tip
of my tongue.

"Death leaves a heartache
that no one can heal.

But love leaves a..."

"love leaves a memory...

(both)
That no one can steal."

Hey, I'm not just a great face
and a hot body, you know.

(laughing)

Bye, sweetie.
