Life Unexpected (2010–2011): Season 2, Episode 10 - Thanks Ungiven - full transcript

When everyone ends up at Baze's loft for Thanksgiving, it isn't long before a few big secrets are exposed. Baze worries that his father, Jack, will discover he is dating his boss, Emma; Lux worries that her parents will find out she is spending time with Eric; Tasha worries that something very dark from her not-too-distant past will be discovered; and Cate worries that if she tells Ryan the truth it will further complicate their already complicated relationship.

Previously on Life Unexpected.

Figuring out why you
both chose what you did

will allowed the
relationship to go forward.

Will you both consider a little time apart?

It might give Cate the
emotional space she needs.

Ryan.

You still owe me one.

I see you've met Mr. Daniels.

- You're...
- A teacher.

Minnesota? What does that mean?

Is the whole state calling you?



Hello.

Who's that? Your boyfriend?

Did you go through my stuff?

I went to Valerie's.
Tasha gave me the address.

What did Valerie tell you?

You know, that you
were violent with them,

that you hit her husband...

Lux!

I'm the violent one?

That's what you told Cate?

Get the hell off my property!

Sam just moved here from Madison.

So you're from Wisconsin?

I was at boarding school there.



Ah. Minnesota.

We're practically neighbors.

Huh.

Minnesota.

I think... I'm gonna like it here.

The finance industry
doesn't have Thanksgiving.

We have the fourth quarter
of the fiscal year.

So, when STF launches its IPO,

we need to calculate the NPV.

I'll need a... P&L statement.

You know, you're very sexy
when you talk alphabet.

Emma, got a minute?

Absolutely.

We were just...

Examining balance
sheets for long term

versus short term debts.

And, yes, I can get the
cash flow statements

for you before closing today.

Listen to you.

I knew you'd be a natural at this.

Chip off the old block, isn't he?

No comment.

I need this evaluated
by Friday morning.

I hope it doesn't affect
your Thanksgiving plans.

You know me. Work is
my Thanksgiving plan.

Oh, uh, you sure you and Lux

don't want to join your
mom and me in Aruba?

Thanks, dad,

but something about snorkeling
and turkey that seems gross.

Plus, I want to give Lux

her first real Thanksgiving,
you know?

Too much food, too much family...

Remember how we used to toss

a football around,
the first person who dropped it

they got stuck with the dishes?

Made you a better football player.

And a lousy dishwasher.

But it was fun.

We'll bring Lux a souvenir.

Don't work too hard.

That was close.

If your dad knew we were dating...

No, you know.

Maybe he'd be cool with it.

We could be all over each
other at the office parties.

We could do it on
the copy machine.

You could come over
for Thanksgiving.

- I already told you that's
a bad idea. - I know.

Because it's a family holiday,

and my family happens
to be your boss,

who also happens to be going
halfway around the world.

Does company policy
mean anything to you?

We could get fired for dating.

Right, right, but everyone who's

coming over for Thanksgiving

already knows we're
dating and can't fire us.

Comforting thought.

Look, I know we have to be
discreet at work, I get it,

but I cannot keep my life in
neat little boxes like you.

I'm more of a junk
drawer type of guy,

and I want all the people that
I care about to be together.

And you're one of those people.

All right.

What should I bring?

And by bring, I mean buy.

Baze is making a turkey
the size of a toddler.

'Cause that image makes me hungry.

We'll eat a ton at Baze's,
then go to Cate's.

She'll probably try to cook,

mess it up, and then order chinnese.

Yeah, maybe I'll get a
fortune cookie that says:

"Hey, don't worry about that guy

"you hit over the
head with a shovel;

- ...you're not totally screwed".
- We're not screwed.

I called and checked on trey.

He only spent one
night in the hospital.

So I'm sure he's probably fine.

If he hasn't made
trouble for us yet,

I don't think it's going to.

Yeah, that's what they said
about the pilgrims.

Bad stuff? That's all behind us.

Except for Cate sweet potato casserole.

Sorry.

Dont worry about it,

What's a little hit and run
between friends, rigth?

Lux? You got a minute?

Oh, your boyfriend's calling you.

Hey, I just want to want to give you
a heads about Math invite's to go
to Baze's in Thanksgiving

- And you are actually coming?
- What I could get out of it, Matk known
I was gonna be alone and wouldn't let it go.

Really, cuz Math couln't apply
pressure to a papercut.

ok, I admitted, I want to be there.

I like Thanksgiving, I like the food
and I like the excuse to be with you.

Me too.

Yellow.

You know there's this crazy new
invention called the door bell?

You use it when you enter a
house where you dont live.

Yeah, they also invented
something called cellphone,

but only works if you turn it on.

So, I need to swap
dinner time with you

- Uh, no.
- Why?

Sorry, you got early dinner,
and I got late dinner.

I have more people coming over
and I bought monster turkey
which is never be cook in time

You know, I making a toon food too,

and I can't cook any faster either.

You cooking?

Cause Lux said you
probably order Chinese

That's great.

And I suppose you'll have a
perfect dinner with Lux
and I supposed to be
stucked in the house

while my mom drinks and my sister,
who still thinks it's 2008,

puts on "Single Ladies" and
tries to teach us the dance.

That's great.

Fine. You bring Abby,
you bring Laverne,

and we can all have
Thanksgiving at my place.

They can put a ring on it there.

Look, we both want to give Lux
her first real Thanksgiving.

It's not fair to put
her in the middle.

- Well, who else is going
to be there? - Not Paige.

And Ryan will be having
Thanksgiving with his mom,

if that's what
you're worried about.

Well, that's good.

That's good?

Aren't you two supposed to
be trying to work things out?

Yeah, we're trying.

Yeah, it was supposed to be our
first Thanksgiving together.

Guess what, bright side,

it'll be our first
Thanksgiving together. Sorry.

What's the bright side?

Wow, easy there, mood swing.

I don't think I've seen you
this volatile since high school.

You can go now.

Are you okay? 'Cause you
look a little pekid.

Okay. Out!

Okay.

Hey, Cate,

don't be late.

You and Mr. Daniels
look cute together,

kind of like inmate and jail bait.

Whatever it is you think
you know, you're wrong.

I think I know enough.

Did you know that I
got an incomplete

in English from last school

and your boyfriend
wants me to do a ton

of make-up work over Thanksgiving.

Well, that sucks for you.

- Yeah, it would unless...
- Unless what?

Unless you get him to
give me a passing grade

without me having to
do any of the work.

Are you... are you serious?

Well, I can't talk Eric...

Mr. Daniels, into doing that for you.

I think you can.

Unless you and Eric... Mr. Daniels

want it to come out
that you're dating.

Hey, I shouldn't even have to ask.

I covered for you with Cate,

I took the blame for the crash,

you owe me one.

Well, it says on the box

that your-your home pregnancy
tests aren't 100% accurate,

so, you know, even if it's
say that I'm pregnant,

you could be wrong, right?

No, it's not a user error.

I know how to take
a pregnancy test.

I have been accidentally
pregnant before.

Oh, yeah? Well, how about
you use a condom next time?

Jerk.

Oh, Cate,

you made something with more
than three ingredients in it.

Mmm, honey, I don't know why
you do this to yourself.

My Thanksgiving side dish

is a jug of martinis.

Always a hit.

Yeah, okay, I just wanted to
make something special for Lux.

I'm not going to let
Baze steal the limelight

with his giant bird.

I'm familiar with
Baze's giant bird.

It's not all that.

Girls, please,

it's a little early to
hear about your sex lives.

- Breakfast wine?
- Yes.

Uh, no, I am good.

Oh, my God, you're pregnant.

No, I'm not.

I knew your boobs looked big.

I thought that was just
a really great bra!

Hey, just because I don't want
to have alcohol first thing

in the morning does not
mean that I'm pregnant.

You are both being ridiculous.

Okay.

Oh, wow.

You cannot say anything

to anyone.

Is it Ryan's?

Of course it is Ryan's.

Then why can't we say anything?

Because Ryan doesn't know yet.

- Cate!
- It's not because

I'm lying to him.

I'm just not 100% sure
that I'm pregnant.

All I did was pee on a stick.

Four sticks.

You think you're going to blow up again?
Remember last time?

It was like your face
expanding sideways.

Abby, shut up.

I don't want to talk
about this again

until I go to the doctor,

I get the results and I
am sure that it's true.

And if it is, then what?

Look, I want Ryan to move home,
but because of this.

Not when our entire
marriage is a total mess.

And not telling him the truth,

it's not even an issue.

Because Ryan is not going
to be at Thanksgiving.

I can't look him in the eye

and lie to him if I'm
not going to see him.

Like anyone is going
to look you in the eye

with those ginormous boobs.

Sorry.

What many people don't know about

the Macy's Thanksgiving
day parade,

formally known as the
Christmas parade,

is that it originated in
1924 using live animals

borrowed from the zoo.

What, are we going to
get a test on this?

No. Maybe.

Sorry.

Probably feels weird
having Thanksgiving

with two of your teachers.

Today think of us as just

a couple of guys.

Like uncles.

Ew.

No, I think it's cool to
have teachers as friends.

Never know when you're
going to need a favor

or a better grade, hypothetically.

All right, I, uh,
I put a candle in the bathroom

to mitigate the smell of guys.

So light it, use it, love it.

Oh...

Hey, that's Paige's.

God, it's like picking up the

droppings of a playboy bunny.

Who... who ate all
my fancy mixed nuts?

Those are for Emma.

- Emma's coming?
- Yeah, with Sam.

What?

Hide your car keys.

Emma's nervous enough.

I want her to feel welcome.

So when Sam gets here,

no teenage shenanigans.

Okay, that's her.

Get rid of this for me.

My girlfriend's here.

Hi.

I brought garlic mashed potatoes.

Oh. That's cool.

Never too many spuds, right?

Come on in, Sam.

Uh, so you guys
remember Lux and Math.

And Tasha who ** to homecoming,
and that's... Mr. Daniels.

How surprising.

And yet not.

Wh-what if Ryan had a stroke?

Or won the lottery?

Or got drafted and was
sent to war next week?

- You would want him to tell you.
- Will you stop?

Ryan is not going to war.

Can we just pick up the pace,
please, and get inside?

I need a cocktail.

My buzz wore off waiting for Cate

to change into a large sweater.

You were the one that told
me I had to hide my boobs.

You shouldn't be hiding anything.

You should just tell Ryan.

Tell me what?

Um... um, that I made

a sweet potato and
veggie sausage casserole.

From scratch?

Yeah.

What are you doing here?

Paige. She ran off to Costa Rica

for some surfing,
yoga, vegan thing,

and she bailed on
Thanksgiving with my mom.

So my parents,
they just started arguing

about who's going to get me,
and I just decided,

you know what,
I'm not going to get

caught up in the middle
of their marital issues.

So you thought you'd come
be caught up in ours.

I think it's so sad
when parents split up.

Especially when they have kids.

Don't you think so, Cate?

Look, it's okay that
I'm here, isn't it?

Yes, it's great.

You know, it's going to give
us a chance to talk about...

Whatever.

And who knows, you know,
maybe we can surprise Dr. Rosner

and we can work
everything out today.

Yeah. Maybe.

That's a nice sweatshirt.

So what is Eric/Mr. Daniels
really doing here?

Mr. Daniels is only here
because Math invited him.

Math may have invited him,

but that's not why he's here.

My guess is, you owe him
another date for ditching him

to commit a felony at homecoming.

Will you shut up about that?

Will it get me an "A"?

That's how it works. Are you sure?

Hey, Sam.

How's that extra
credit work coming?

Got any questions?

No. I'm, I'm good.

Lux is helping me.

I wouldn't have
made mashed potatoes

if someone had told
me that Baze's new

girlfriend was bringring
mashed potatoes,

or, you know, that he
had a new girlfriend.

It's not a competition, Abby.

You could have told me

that my ex was seeing
someone else, Cate.

Your ex? Really?

Oh, sorry. I guess
my feelings for Baze

are insignificant.

This is exactly like the last time

you got knocked up--
all about you.

Bet you wish you could
have that drink now.

To baste or not to baste--
that is the question.

So, it's your call.

You're the one wearing

the sexy apron.

Uh, well, I'm not
sure about basting,

but if the oven isn't hot enough,

we can finish roasting
the turkey under the heat

of Cate's sister's glare.

You know, um, I think Abby
is fine with you being here.

She just gets that look sometimes

because she has a glass eye.

Really? Yeah.
But don't mention it.

She's very sensitive.

Everybody loves that
you're here, Emma.

Especially me.

I have to admit,

I kind of love being here, too.

I haven't done Thanksgiving
in a long time,

and being here doing
the family thing

is really good for Sam,

so thank you for twisting my arm.

Exactly. Company
policy can suck it.

All right,

so we gonna baste? Yeah.

Hi, Lux. Hey, think fast.

Dad.

Surprise!

What are you doing here?

Well, you said you wanted
a family Thanksgiving.

Emma, what are you doing here?

Uh, she just--

she just stopped by.

I brought a file.

For work. 'Cause, you know,
we work together.

Oh, oh, yeah.

Uh, so wh-what happened to Aruba?

Oh, we pushed the
flight till tomorrow.

And with everything you
said about this being Lux's

your mother and I thought
we should be here.

Yeah. I'm sorry,
we should have called, honey.

Mom, are you kidding?

I love surprises.

This wouldn't be Thanksgiving

without my mom's famous...
Something from a store.

Stop it.

- Hey, Math, hi.
- Happy Thanksgiving.

Oh, it's so good to see you.

Good seeing you, too.

Math, will you warm this up,
please?

Sure.

Hello.

Hi. Cocktail/appetizer, anyone?

Let me show you where
the drinks are.

We're saving the box
of wine for dinner.

Oh, good. Good.

Welcome. Yeah.

I'm so sorry.

I had no idea that they
were going to show up.

Sam and I should go.

No, no, no. I think
that would look worse.

And besides, I really
want you to be here.

And I really want to keep my job.

Hey, look, I covered,
okay? Now we'll just cover.

You think no one here is going
to mention that we're dating?

Your mom brought mashed potatoes.

Okay, you know what, don't worry.

I am on this.
And by the way,

as far as my dad is concerned,
Emma and I

are not dating.

What the hell are
you doing in here?!

Relax. It's not like I'm
going to find anything

more interesting than
what I already know.

This is cool.

Can I have it?

Why would...? Why would
I give you anything?

You talked to your boyfriend
about upping my grade yet?

No, I've been too busy playing
hostess to a psychopath.

Who, me? Yeah.

I'm not the one stealing cars,

assaulting old dudes and
sleeping with my teacher.

I'm not sleeping with anyone.

That's too bad.

What do you see in an
English teacher anyway?

Thought you would be
into someone more badass.

Like who?

Oh, who, like you?

What's wrong with me?

Don't get me started.
We'll be here

till Christmas...
of next year.

Lux, Sam, great.

Two big problems.

One, there is a lot

of mashed potato action happening.

I need someone to run to the store

and grab some food
that isn't white.

Anything to get me out of here.

But take Sam.

Uh, why?

Emma and I are not supposed
to be dating at work,

so I need to cover with my dad.

I want to say that you invited
Emma and Sam to dinner

because you guys are dating.

What?!

Help a brother out.

Oh, don't worry,
your secret's safe with us.

Um, hey, thank you for helping
me earlier with my dad.

And if he asks,
Emma and I are not dating.

Who's Emma?

Even better.

Um, Dr. Rosner,
it is Cate Cassidy again.

I know it's Thanksgiving,

but Ryan and I, we need to
work things out, like, today.

I kind of got some news and, um...

I'm not really sure what to do.

Can you call me back?

Holidays are meant to
bring people together.

So, let's talk about what's
really keeping you two apart.

The lies, the infidelity,
the lies...

Abby.

Can you stop?

Yeah, we, uh, we
appreciate your concern...

No, we don't.

Cate and I just, you know...
It's going to take some time.

How much time? Three months?

Six months?

Nine months?

Mom needs your help.

Why?

All the wine is
twist-off or in a box.

Fine.

What's going on?

Nothing.

That was a fun trip
to the grocery store.

You can actually talk, you know.

You don't have to just ignore me.

Just because Baze is
making us pretend to date

doesn't mean that we actually are.

Is this because of the blackmail?

Oh, it's not helping.

You know, Lux,
I'm really not a bad guy.

I'd be willing to forget

all about you and
Eric/Mr. Daniels.

For a kiss.

Forget it.

Come on. We're dating, right?

Wha...

Oh, you're afraid you'll like it.

No, I'm not going to kiss you

to cover up something
that's not even true.

That would be a good point.

If I didn't have this.

From one badass to another,
never leave valuable stuff

in a room that
doesn't have a door.

You know, maybe for Christmas,
you should

ask for a shower
curtain with a lock.

Give me that.

In exchange for...?

In exchange for nothing.

Okay, look, we...

We... we took that
at some school thing.

Big deal.

I'm sure your parents would
think it was a big deal.

Or, uh... the school board.

Or the police.

Fine.

Whatever.

But our mouths stay closed.

Sure.

And I hate you.

Whatever you say, cinderella.

Let's just get this over with.

I'm ready when you are.

Not bad.

Not worth the picture.

Hey, what the hell are you doing?

What are you doing
talking to Ryan?

I was just trying to help.

Okay, well, can you stop?

Face it, Cate.

You're the one in the wrong.

It's classic, really, therapy 101.

You constantly deny
the men in your life

the chance to be there for you.

You did it with Baze, and now
you're doing it with Ryan.

Okay. You know what
you constantly do?

You make my life worse
by getting involved

with the men that impregnate me.

How's it going?

Well, apparently, Cate's still
mad that I slept with Baze.

I mean, if she's going
to yell at every woman

who sleeps with Baze,
why not go after,

you know, Ryan's sister
or that Emma chick?

What?

Nate is dating Emma?

Oh. That's why she's here.

Oh, crap.

You were the one I wasn't
supposed to tell about Emma.

What the hell is going on?

Um, what the hell is
going on with what?

With you and Emma.

Are you two seeing each other?

What?

No.

Okay. Yes.

But... okay, but hear me out.

I know that there is a no-dating
policy at your company,

and I am not asking
for special treatment,

but Emma and I have
been dating for a while,

and it hasn't affected our work.

In fact, if anything,
my work has gotten better,

and you even said so yourself.

End it, Nate.

Dad, wait.

Do... do you remember how
hung up I was on Cate

and how I never thought...

Like, I really thought
I'd never get over it?

I did because of Emma.

End it now.

I don't want to.

God, you... you
don't stop to think

before you jump into bed
with anyone, do you?

There's the girl who
burned down your bar,

Cate, her sister,

now your boss, my employee.

I thought you'd changed, Nate.

I thought you were getting
your life together,

making good choices...

grown-up choices,

and you just throw it away.

I'm not throwing anything away.

Emma... she's made
me a better man.

I don't care what she's made you.

You break up with Emma,
or you're fired.

Sam? Sam!

Seriously!

Give it back!

What? Wait. What, for that kiss?

Admit it-- it was weak.

You don't want to
mess with me, okay?

People that do--
they end up in the hospital.

Hey, what's going on?

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Lux, come on.

You've been acting
weird since homecoming.

What's going on?

Sam.

He knows about us.

What?

He suspected at homecoming,
and then he tried

to get me to make
you give him an "A"

on all his makeup work,
so I-I-I called his bluff,

but then, today, he showed up,

and he found that picture
of us from the wedding.

You said that you got rid of that.

I... I was going to.

And so now this kid who's
known since homecoming

has a picture of us and you
weren't going to say anything?

Well, I was going
to try to fix it.

Lux, it's bad enough
that Tasha knows.

Great. I have to...
I have to quit my job.

I have to move to another state.

I could get arrested, Lux.

I'm sorry. It's not your fault.

Listen, you shouldn't have
to deal with this, all right?

I should go. I shouldn't have
been here in the first place.

No, no. If you go, it's going

to make us look more guilty and...

And give him more ammunition.

Hey, you guys are missing
the bullwinkle balloon.

And it's dinnertime.

Well, I don't know about anybody else,
but I am starving.

And these potatoes, they...
They all look so delicious.

Oh, uh, that orange is stuffing.

I made it from scratch.

Oh.

Does anyone want meat?

Dad, would you like
to tell everyone

if they want meat or not?

You want to dictate
what kind they can have?

White, dark,

thigh, breast?

Nate?

Nate, honey,

are you okay?

Yeah. Why?

'Cause you're carving that
turkey like it's the shining.

Do we have any bread
to go with the...

Potatoes and marshmallows?

Uh, yeah, 'cause I don't think

there's enough
starch at the table.

Oh, I think Cate has
some buns in the oven.

Abby.

Seriously, if you guys
need more rolls, Lux and I

could do another grocery run--
since we're dating.

Somebody pass the stuffing.

Oh!

The one that's not Cate's.

Unless, of course, you want

to offer an opinion
about this, too.

If you're going to
make bad choices,

I'm going to tell you.

Could someone please
pass those baby peas?

Ryan, you should
help yourself first,

'cause I know how much
you wanted baby...

Mom, stop!

Cate, what's going on with you?

Nothing is going on.

It is our first
Thanksgiving with Lux

and Tasha,
and we are all together,

and I would just really
like to enjoy it.

We're trying, Cate.
Stop freaking out.

Okay, I'm not freaking out.

I just want to have a
really nice Thanksgiving,

and no one has touched the
stuffing that I had made.

Nothing's going the way
that I would like it to.

You are the one that
is freaking me out!

Uh, Cate?

Cate?

I'm pregnant.

I mean, how is it that I can find

the absolute worst
way to do everything?

It wasn't the worst.

I spit on Thanksgiving, Ryan.

It was Lux's first
Thanksgiving with us.

I could have abandoned
her at a soup kitchen,

and it would have been less gross.

Look, um...

- I'm moving back home.
- No.

- Yes.
- No.

This is exactly why I
didn't want to tell you.

Nothing has changed between us.

You know, having a baby

doesn't change the fact

that our marriage is a
complete mess, that...

You went to Julia,
that I went to Baze.

We are not even living
in the same space.

Having a baby changes everything.

16 years ago, all you wanted

was for someone to
stand in front of you

and be an accountable guy.

Now, that's what I'm doing.

I'm not 16 anymore.

And I don't want you back if
we are going to keep having

the same stupid fights about
the same stupid things.

And I don't want you back
because you want a baby.

I want you back
because you want me.

Your dad knows, doesn't he?

Yeah, he knows.

I guess... I guess Abby told him--

accidentally, supposedly.

He, uh...

He threatened to fire me if
I don't break up with you.

I can't believe him.

Hey, you warned me,
company policy.

I guess that matters more

to my dad than me.

I told you I should have gone.

I'm... I'm going to get Sam.

Emma... no.

Nate... yes.

I know how hard you've worked
to be seen as that guy,

the one who can carve the
turkey and host Thanksgiving

and provide for your daughter
and hold down a real job.

And I know how badly
you want to prove

that you are that guy to your dad.

And if my being here, or...

You being with me

puts that all at risk,
then maybe he's right.

I shouldn't be here, and...

We shouldn't be together.

Is this what normal people
Thanksgiving is like?

Because I'm starting to get
nostalgic for that time

we made an entire dinner
out of canned goods

and used shoe as a football.

I think I have to tell
Cate the truth, Tash.

About me and Eric.

Are you crazy?

No, you don't.

Sam knows. He's been
blackmailing me.

He threatened to call the cops.

What? He found this
picture of me and Eric

when we went and
crashed that wedding.

I know I made a mistake, but...

None of this is Eric's fault.

I don't, I don't want
him to get into trouble.

So... don't tell Cate.

No, Cate being mad I
can handle, but...

If Sam calls the cops?

There's no case if Cate and
Baze don't press charges,

and all I have to do is, is

tell Cate that-that
I wasn't a victim,

that we haven't slept together,

that he didn't even
know how old I was.

What about me?

Well, yeah, you covered for us,
Tash, but...

Come on, this is bigger than
Cate finding out that you lied.

Not to me, Lux.

You keep telling me
everything's going to be okay.

You asked me to protect you,
and I did.

So I'm in this, too, okay?

If secrets start coming out,

Sam knows more than one.

What if-- what if he tells
Cate what I did to Trey?

You might be willing to lose
everything, Lux, but I'm not.

Cate.

You can't eat that whole casserole.
That's just sad.

It's the one good thing
that came out of today,

and no one even gave it a chance.

You told you husband he's
going to be a father,

and he actually wants to be one.

I'd say that's a good thing.

No, he wants to be a good
guy and do the right thing.

There is a big difference.

What do you expect, Cate?

What do you want him to do?

If he walked away,
if he didn't come back,

would that make you feel better?

I want Ryan to come back,
I just...

I'm like a plastic container.

Cheap and disposable?

No. He wants what's inside,
he doesn't want me.

I know this is messy, and it's

not how you wanted to happend.

But let's look on the bright side,

what you wanted is happening.

You wanted Ryan back home,
you said so yourself.

No, we were supposed
to fix things first.

But maybe his coming home
will be what fixes things,

not the other way around.

I mean, do you really think
that that could happen?

Cate. Mm.

This is edible.

That proves it.

Anything can happen.

Emma? Wait.

You're not leaving. He is.

What happened?

What is going on between you two?

I'm just trying to stop your
son from screwing up his life.

The only screwup is believing

things between us had changed.

You're never going to think
that I know better than you,

or that I can make the
right choice, but I can.

If you are making me choose
between you and Emma,

then I choose her.

We're leaving.

Oh, Jack, wait...

Let's go.

You made the wrong choice.

I'll call you.

I have a doctor's
appointment on Monday.

Yeah. I-I can meet you there.

Yeah.

Or we could go together.

From home.

Cate?

Can I talk to you for a sec?

Is everything okay?

Not really.

Cate? The police are here.
They want to talk to you.

We have a warrant.

For who?

Uh, Cate, I can, I can explain.

Natasha Siviac.

For assault.

We're going to take you
down to the station now.

I didn't call, I swear.

Our records show that you

and Ryan Thomas are her
legal guardians? Mm-hmm.

We're going to need
you to come with us.
