No Ordinary Family (2010–2011): Season 1, Episode 12 - No Ordinary Brother - full transcript

Jim's wayward brother, Mike, pays a surprise visit to the Powell household. Let in on the family secrets, he all too quickly puts JJ's abilities to use - helping him win big at a horse track. Meanwhile, there may be a secret agenda behind Katie given an all-too-sudden promotion at Global Tech by Human Resources VP Victoria Morrow, and Daphne is placed on the school's peer disciplinary committee where she discovers a scruffy student willfully taking the fall under a wrongful accusation of drug possession.

Every story has a beginning.

JIM: We were just an
ordinary family, until...

Hold on! Oh, my God!

Something extraordinary
has happened.

GEORGE: You can jump just over a
quarter mile, can lift 11,000 pounds...

STEPHANIE: I'm fast.

DAPHNE: I can hear
people's thoughts.

JJ: I've got, like,
this super-brain.

I can finally make a difference.

DR. KING: With your new
access to Doctor Powell,

you should be able to learn exactly
what she's been keeping from me.



(CLANKING)

Honey?

Honey, did you hear that?

I think someone's
breaking into our house.

You think?

Can't you go zoop out there
and make sure, before you wake...

(GLASS BREAKING)

Stay here. Get
ready to call 911.

(GASPING)

Wait, it's me!

Mikey?

Hey, bro.

So, how long are
you in town for?

MIKE: I didn't really
think that far ahead.



I just needed a
change of scenery.

DAPHNE: What about Tracy?

Why didn't she come? I
mean, it's only a two hour ride.

Actually, she's kind of the
scenery that I'm referring to.

So how's the energy
drink business, bro?

Well, it turns out
it was kind of a fad.

Which is fine, 'cause now I'm into
something with even more upside...

Footwear re-purposement. Hmm.

Did you know that for every
10 sneakers manufactured,

one gets thrown out
for some minor defect?

So, you sell shoes
from the garbage?

Actually, Steph, I take
the manufacturer's discards

and I sell them
for a minimal price.

Helping me and the
poor at the same time.

Wow! Very industrious,
wouldn't you say, guys?

Yes. Yep.

Bye, Uncle Mike. Bye.

See you.

DAPHNE: Bye, Mom. Bye, Dad.

Bye!

JJ: See ya. MIKE: All righty.

I'm gonna hit that sweet
steam shower of yours.

And hey, call George,
clear your calendars.

Boys' night out tonight,
all right? And I'm buying.

(CHUCKLES)

He's not buying anything.

What, did you just meet him?

Look, just go easy on Mike.

Really? After everything
he's put you through?

You heard him.

I actually think he's
getting his act together.

Besides, people change, Steph.

I mean, if anyone should
understand that, it's us.

Hey.

Why are you dressed?

Joshua,

why do you have this?

This is my boss's journal.

I need to know why you have it.

Open it.

I already did.

I would recognize Dr. Powell's
indiscernible chicken scratch anywhere.

"So unfamiliar to me, try
as I might to run from it,

"I can't help but fall in
love with Katie Andrews."

Does that sound like
something Dr. Powell wrote?

I'm so sorry. I...

I could've sworn that I saw...

It's all right. I get it.

Last night was a big
night. A lot of emotion.

(PHONE RINGING)

Global Tech Human
Resources? That's weird.

Hello, this is Katie Andrews.

STEPHANIE: A promotion?

Katie, that's fantastic!

I never thought the
moment would come

where you and I wouldn't be
sharing a workspace every day.

You know, just because
you got a promotion

doesn't mean you
have to leave my lab.

They just slap on a "senior"

or an "executive" in
front of your job title,

give you a few
extra vacation days.

They're giving me my own lab.

Oh...

I mean, that doesn't
mean we still can't...

It's kind of in Miami.

Miami?

But I've already done the math,

and don't worry
because at your speed,

you are only seven
and a half minutes away,

so we could still have
lunch together every day.

Dr. Powell, the one
thing that would tip

this bittersweet moment towards
bitter and away from sweet

is if in some way you
weren't entirely happy for me.

No, of course I'm
happy for you, Katie.

I'm just gonna
miss you, that's all.

Mr. Litchfield, I was unaware that
being the student body president

places me on the peer
disciplinary committee.

Apparently, the administration
thinks your judgment is now of value.

But remember, don't be swayed
by these dewy-eyed delinquents.

They'll stop at nothing
to avoid discipline.

Right.

LITCHFIELD: Mrs. Fern
threatened to fail you earlier that day

and you responded in
a highly-cliched retort

that if she did,
she'd regret it.

How are you going
to rule on this?

Guilty.

Guilty.

I would've keyed your car, too, but
you can't even afford a decent ride.

Guilty.

Three weeks detention. Next.

I only missed class because
my mom was really sick

and I had to take
my brother to school.

Guilty. Innocent.

After which I got the cutest new
bedazzled cell phone case at the mall.

Guilty.

Mr. Minor, four pills
were found in your pocket

which the school nurse
identified as Adderall.

You don't happen to
have a doctor's prescription

for these pills, do you, Chris?

Yeah, the guy who
sold them to me

isn't much for
putting stuff in writing.

Committee, I think the
evidence speaks for itself.

How do you rule?

Guilty. Guilty.

Guilty.

Mr. Minor, you can add
another three-day suspension

to your stellar list
of achievements.

Session adjourned.

Not quite the bleeding heart I
thought you'd be, Miss Powell.

Sweet. They totally believed
those pills were mine.

STEPHANIE: I'm
not happy about this.

Katie is a very important
member of my team.

I should've been consulted
before she was relocated.

I understand.

I was just informed myself.

Call Ms. Morrow in.

WOMAN: Right away, Dr. King.

The new VP of Human
Resources. She places personnel.

Such a pleasure to
meet you, Dr. Powell.

I'm a great admirer of
your work. Thank you.

Before you say anything,
I owe you an apology.

I was so eager to
deliver the good news,

I completely
disregarded protocol.

Yes.

See, the truth is, the
board's had their eye on her

for quite some time.

Katie's only worked for
Global Tech for two years.

Yet she embodies
everything we look for.

Young, brilliant, glowing
year-end evaluations.

You wrote these, didn't you?

Perhaps what Dr. Powell
is saying is that,

something's changed

and Katie's performance
is not what it was.

No, Katie is a model
employee. She always has been.

So you'd rather keep her
in a subordinate position

than give her the chance
to succeed on her own?

No, that is not what I'm saying.

Then what are you
saying, Dr. Powell?

You know, thank you,
both, for your time.

JIM: Well, to be
honest, I really like Tracy.

Not sure why you let her go.

I just don't get all this pressure
to settle down, you know.

You know, humans are the only
species that insist on monogamy.

Go to the zoo, check
out the monkeys, all right?

It's like Boogie
Nights in there.

Okay, wait, wait, wait. Okay,
monkeys also throw poo at each other,

so I'm not sure if
they've got it all right.

But, hey. A toast to my brother

who's been there for me
more times than I can count.

Here's hoping that I can
return the favor some day.

Cheers.

Hey, hey, hey! No. I told
you, this one's on me, all right?

It's the least I can do.

(PHONE RINGING)

Shoot, it's my accountant.
I gotta take this, all right?

We're setting up an
LLC for this shoe thing.

I'm really doing it this time,
Jimmy. I'm doing it right.

Hello?

He rigged that
phone call, didn't he?

Yeah.

Where the hell is he?

I don't know. Tell him
I said bye, all right?

And tell him to hook a
brother up with some shoes.

Okay.

All right. Boom!

See you tomorrow, bro. Sure.

(MIKE YELLING)

Come on!

(GROANS)

Get out of here! Now!

Mikey, you okay?

Yeah.

(TIRES SQUEALING)

(THUDDING)

Jimmy!

Jim!

Jimmy!

How the hell?

Relax. I'm fine.

Yeah, I can see that.

But how?

It doesn't make sense! I
mean, you should be dead.

Or crippled. Or dead!

What do you want
me to say? I got lucky.

No, that's not
lucky, Jim. All right?

Finding a penny, hitting
blackjack, those are lucky.

What happened to you
is a miracle, all right?

We need to call the news.

Or Oprah! No, we're
not calling anyone.

You understand me, Mike?

Let's talk about what
happened to you!

Who were those
guys who jumped you?

How can you even ask me that

when you just fell off a
building and survived?

You're right. Let's count
our blessings and move on.

You're doing it.

That thing you do with your forehead
when you're hiding something.

I am not doing anything
with my forehead.

Liar. Don't make me call
Mom. Come on, Mike...

Come on, I'm your brother.
Why don't you trust me?

Because. Because, why?

Because I have superpowers!

Oh, screw you. I'm serious.

I'm serious, too, Mike.

Look, I have super-strength,

I can jump really far,
and I'm invulnerable.

Almost. Unless you hold a gun
to my head and pull the trigger.

That would be bad.

You're a jerk, you know that?

Look. Here.

Hit me with this.

I'm not gonna hit
you with a shovel.

You want to find out what I'm
hiding, here is your chance. Hit me!

You ready? 'Cause I'm doing it.

No, I mean, really hit me.

That's it. Now, right here.

I'm doing it.

(CLANK)

See, there was this plane crash.

And after, I could do these...

Jim, we need to
talk about Katie.

Oh, my God!

Where did you just
come from so fast?

(STUTTERS) The bedroom.
I walked in from the bedroom.

Jim, you saw me walk in...

He knows about me. And
now he knows about you, too.

This... This is...

Insane.

Yes, it is insane.

Which is why you can never
tell anyone about this. About us.

What about the kids?

Wait, you guys told Uncle
Mike about our powers?

What? He was the
one thinking about them!

Mind reader? Mmm.

BOTH: Mind reader.

And that would make JJ what?

You've heard of Einstein?

Smarter than that guy.

JIM: I know what
you're thinking.

Mike's the last person
I'd trust with our secret?

He said he wouldn't tell anyone.

Just like he said he was
gonna go to law school,

or he said he was
gonna open a restaurant.

JIM: Come on.

Give the guy a break, will
you? Give him a chance.

(SIGHS)

I've already given him a chance.

So have you.

Look, I'm sorry, but
based on his track record,

if Mike can find a way to take
advantage of our abilities, he will.

I won't let him
do that, I promise.

One of the perks for
working for Global Tech

is the healthy moving
stipend they provide.

Yeah, we can even help
you find an apartment.

Oh, okay, I would love a balcony
and a parking spot for my new Jetta.

Done and done.

This was taken after I
mapped my first genome.

I don't know, maybe I'm
being totally ungrateful

leaving her without
a replacement.

You know, all due
respect to Dr. Powell,

I do hope she's not
making you feel guilty.

I mean, it's probably just a
knee-jerk reaction to your promotion.

Everyone knows she adores you.

Uh... Sorry, what did she say?

Oh, she just told Dr. King
that you didn't have

enough experience
to run your own lab.

I think maybe you
misunderstood her because she...

She tends to mumble sometimes.

Look,

some people have to
be the only star shining.

It just reinforces you've
made the right decision.

So, when a crime goes down,
this is where the action starts.

We call it the lair.

The lair. Oh, my God.

(LAUGHS)

Anybody else you wanna
bring by here? TMZ?

Hey. Look. He knows about me.

I just wanna show him how I
make a difference, that's all.

Right, okay.

Well, yeah, this is
your brother and I

track and monitor
crimes in progress.

It's also where I do my laundry.

I gotta say, Jim.

This is a big step up
from sketching muggers.

Yeah.

You guys must make serious
cash for this heroes-for-hire stuff.

I don't do it for money, Mike.

I do it to protect people.

I do it to keep your brother
from getting himself killed.

(PHONE RINGING)

I gotta... I gotta take this.

All right.

I'll catch up with
you later, Super Bro.

See ya.

When people start
showing up to your house

with tickets to see
the strong man,

do not say I didn't tell you.

Look, I know it's Mike we're
talking about here, but I don't know,

I actually think he's trying
to turn himself around.

Oh, really? Yeah.

'Cause that car that smashed
into you, I ran the plates.

Turns out that the owner,
not just some random mugger.

Works for a guy named Frank
Matthews, runs collections.

Biggest loan shark
on the West Coast.

Doesn't get out of bed
for less than 10 grand.

If he's looking
for your brother,

it's for only one reason
and one reason only,

Mike owes him big time.

Mike.

I should probably clear out
my family's tissue samples

before the new lab tech starts.

Of course, you may not have to
keep our secret for much longer.

Jim's brother showed
up, and within hours,

Jim was telling
him all about us.

Can you believe that?

Katie, is everything okay?

I heard about your
conversation with Dr. King.

Oh. Look, clearly
whatever got back to you,

it's not what you think.

Oh. Well, that's a relief.

Because for a second there, I
thought you went behind my back

and you tried to convince
Dr. King not to promote me.

Oh, wait, that's
exactly what you did!

You have to admit,
it is a little unusual

to be offered your own
lab so early in your career.

You mean earlier than
you were offered yours.

No.

You know, when something
unusual happened to you,

I didn't question
it. I supported it.

I supported you.

Why can't you do
the same for me?

(SIGHS)

JJ!

Uncle Mike, the principal
said you were here.

What's the emergency?
Are my parents okay?

Everyone's fine. It was just an
excuse to get you out of class.

You know what? That
super-brain of yours

is too much pressure
for a kid your age.

I think you need a little more
fun in your life, don't you?

What do you say, huh?

You up for a good
old-fashioned ditch day?

I guess so.

My parents would kill me if they knew
that I was using my powers to gamble.

Yeah, that's why
we won't tell them.

Besides, it actually won't be
you that's gambling. It's me.

Okay. You just...
You'll be helping.

You mean my powers are helping.

Well, if they can be useful.

Can they be?

Well, using Bayes' theorem

and a liberal dose
of logistic regression,

it's actually not that hard
to predict the winners.

All you need is a computer
that's powerful enough

to process all the variables.

Or a brain.

Okay.

Aidan's Charm to win. Rhapsody
to place. Bluezette to show.

You sure?

Make the bet.

MAN ON PA: Rhapsody
is making a run at the lead.

Excuse me!

(INDISTINCT)

Aidan's Charm! Let's go!

Yes, come on!

There's Aidan.

All right, come on!

He's looking good! Yes, he is!

He's looking good out there!

Go, Aidan's Charm!
Please go, for me!

Come on, come on, come on! Yes!

Oh, my God! Go, go, go, go!

(ALL CHEERING)

MAN ON PA: Aidan's Charm to win it
by 4 lengths. Aidan's Charm to win...

That was insane!

That was incredible!
You are incredible!

Oh, my God!

So what do you think, huh?
You got another one in you?

Yes!

Chris, right?

Wow. I would have
thought you'd know me

as the guy you got suspended.

It didn't have to be like
that and you know it.

Those pills weren't yours.

And I don't know who
you're covering for,

but this is a big deal.

It's gonna go on your
permanent record.

Well, if you've seen
my permanent record,

you'd know I could
give a rat's ass.

It doesn't matter to me,
but it'll kill his scholarship.

Tell me who you're covering for,

and I will help you.

DREW: Hey, Chris, you ready?

I gotta get home to
study for my trig test.

Just leave it alone.

Yeah, I'm sure JJ's
fine if he's with his uncle.

Thank you for your
concern, Principal Ackerman.

Your brother took our son out
of school for a family emergency.

Now, why would he do that?

Maybe there was an emergency?

Yeah, there is an emergency!
It's a wake-up call for you!

Look, every time your
brother comes to town,

he's always dragging
you into something.

And now he's dragging our son.

Look. They're probably
just having a little fun.

Where's the worst
place they could be?

J-J-J-J-J! You did it again,
man! You are unbelievable.

(LAUGHS)

You know, when I was your
age, I was never good at anything.

Hell, I'm still not.

Dad said you're
good at everything,

you just haven't figured
out what you want to do yet.

He says that?

Yeah, all the time.

(PHONE RINGING)

Oh. Hold on.

Hey, big bro.

Where the hell are you?
And tell me my son's okay.

Relax. Everything's cool.

I just sprung JJ
a little early, is all.

You know, a little
uncle-nephew bonding time.

(TRUMPET PLAYING)

Mikey, exactly where
did you take JJ?

I should've called.

Wrong! You shouldn't
have taken JJ at all!

Jim, your boy's amazing.

He picked one
winner after another.

You took advantage of him
for your own personal gain.

You guys have these
unbelievable powers!

You can do anything in the world

and you're just letting
it all go to waste!

Look, you feel like telling us
what's really going on with you?

For real.

Okay, all right, you're right.

I haven't told you
the whole truth.

You know, my new business

in footwear
re-purposement, well it's...

It's not totally up
and running yet.

I just... I needed a
little seed money.

That sounded convincing.
I think he's gonna go for it.

(EXHALES)

Mike, you got one
chance to tell me the truth.

Your last chance.

I'm in the hole.

Gambling. I owe 15 grand.

That's the real reason
you came here, isn't it?

Run away from a debt
you can never repay?

Look, but I got a
plan this time, all right.

Oh, come on. Not again,
Mike. You can, you can help me.

With your powers.

Please.

You're my big brother, Jim.

I need you.

THE WATCHER: I know
why you're sending Katie away.

It won't work.

You know, much as you seem to
think the world orbits around you,

the Board of Trustees
didn't factor in your love life

before promoting Dr. Andrews.

Our arrangement is over.

I'm done.

Are you sure about that?

Has the weakness set in yet?

The joint pain?

The depression?

Without that serum...

It can wear on a man.

I guess I'll find out

in Miami.

I'm going with her.

Starting over.

Good-bye.

I'm looking for Frank Matthews.

Can I help you?

JIM: Yeah.

I'm Mike Powell's brother.

I know he owes you some money

and I was hoping to find
a way to settle his debt.

So would I. What'd
you have in mind?

Unlike my brother, I
have a steady paycheck.

I mean, I can't pay
you back all at once,

but, say, over the course of
the next six months, I could...

I'll be able to get you
your $15,000 back.

(LAUGHING)

Try adding a zero
to the end of that.

What?

Mike owes me 150 grand.

Now you can take over
the debt if you want,

but you should know, I
don't do payment plans.

Your brother's gonna
pay me what he owes.

One way or another.

$150,000!

$150,000!

I heard you, I heard you.

If we had a dollar for
every time you said that,

we'd be paying
that debt right now.

What in the world would
possibly possess him

to borrow money from a
loan shark in the first place?

And then to gamble it all away?

Well, a guy with
Mike's financial history

doesn't really qualify
for a bank loan.

They say you gotta hit
bottom in order to change.

Maybe this time
he'll learn his lesson.

The only lesson Frank
Matthews teaches

is untraceable bullets
and well-hidden bodies.

Do you have anything
helpful to say?

At all?

Not really.

You know, maybe the
lair will be more helpful.

How? Well, think about it.

It's like the Magic
Eight-Ball of rooms.

All you gotta do is ask it a
question and it will tell you what to do.

No. No, no, no!

Oh!

They got the motorcycle, too.

They who?

Mike.

MIKE: Jim, I
didn't rob the lair.

JIM: Why should I believe you?

Again? All you do is lie.

You lied to me when you told
me how much money you owe.

How do you know about my juice?

Because I was stupid
enough to try to pay it off.

What, you went to see Matthews?

A hundred and fifty
grand, Mike? God!

He's the one who must
have robbed the place.

His guys are following
me around everywhere.

Stop, stop! Ever
since you could talk,

I've been buying into
your endless excuses.

And let me guess, Tracy
was also fed up, right?

She left you, right?

Because she knows what
I'm finally admitting to myself,

which is eventually,
you let everyone down!

You think this
is the first time?

What are you talking about?

Where were you, Mike?

Where were you when
Dad had his heart attack?

(SCOFFS) What?

Jim, that was... That
was 10 years ago.

I know where Dad
was. He was in the ICU.

I know where I was.
I was by his bedside.

I called you and I begged
you to come and sit with me.

Look, he was unconscious.

And you were there.

And it all turned out fine.

Don't you understand?

I didn't need you there for
him, I needed you there for me!

I didn't... I didn't
realize that.

That's the problem.
You never do.

I gotta go to work.

After all I've done for him.

He won't be gone for long.

I'm not sure about that.

Love has a way of robbing
a man of his common sense.

This isn't about love.

He wants to be normal.

We all do.

He hasn't been normal
since the day I found him.

Look at how short his
memory has become.

Whatever it takes, he is
not to leave Pacific Bay.

DAPHNE: JJ, I think Chris is
covering for his younger brother.

Now if Drew is popping pills,

they're probably in his locker.

So you want me to
violate his civil liberties

with an illegal
search and seizure?

Is that the kind of
government you run here?

JJ, Chris got suspended
because of my vote.

And I can't have done that
to someone who's innocent.

Please.

Okay.

The tumblers on these old locks

usually fall on a
mathematical pattern.

Looks like

left 23,

right 46

and left 18.

Um... I'm no
pharmacist or anything,

but those don't look
like vitamins to me.

DAPHNE: Don't go.

I know my dad when he gets mad.

You just have to
let him calm down

and then he'll listen to
what you have to say.

Yeah, I know that strategy.

I used it pretty
successfully back in the day.

But I think your dad's pretty much
done hearing my side of things.

Come here.

Miss you.

Take care of yourself, kiddo.

You, too.

Look, you were right all along.

This whole time, I thought
I was just being protective,

but the truth is, I
was being selfish.

Well, don't beat yourself
up. It's really a very fine line.

MAN: I think we're ready to go.

Just so you know,
I'm here for you.

No matter where you
are, you're not alone.

That really means a lot.

But I am actually
not going to be alone.

Joshua's decided to go with me.

Katie, you didn't tell me that.

Yeah, well, I was
angry with you,

and simmering resentment has
a way of stepping on good news.

I'm really happy for you.

Thank you... Oh!

MAN: Let's get
him into position.

For everything.

MAN: Okay, let's be careful.

Look out!

Katie, are you okay?

Yeah, I think so.

I don't know what
happened. I'm so sorry!

Hey, are you guys all right?

I'm all right.

Should we call someone?

Wow.

Daph?

Hey, you need to hear something.

What?

Uncle Mike didn't rob the lair.

Look, just because somebody's
disappointed you in the past,

doesn't mean that
they're always guilty.

Look, I know you
love your uncle,

but how about we end
the Powell family tradition

of buying into his
unique brand of bull...

No, Dad.

I saw his mind,

and he was at an ultrasound
appointment when the lair was robbed.

Ultrasound appointment?

For a baby. He was with
Tracy and she's pregnant.

The date and time
were on the monitor.

So he couldn't have done it.

Come here.

Hey, Mikey, it's me.
Listen, I'm so sorry.

I know it wasn't you
who broke into the lair.

Now's not really a good time.

JIM: You're angry, I understand.

But did you hear what I
said? I know it wasn't you.

That's great, Jim.

But I think we got
bigger problems.

You wanna help your
brother? (GUN COCKING)

Get me 150 grand
in the next 24 hours

or I think you
know how this ends.

Listen, did they find the person
that made that window fall?

No, it wasn't a who, it
was the crane clutch.

I guess a gear slipped.

The poor crane
operator felt terrible,

but I told him not
to beat himself up.

Even Tony Stark has
equipment failure. (CHUCKLES)

You know what, I actually
shouldn't have said Tony Stark

because once he has the suit
on, then he's technically Iron Man.

I'm okay. I really am.

You know, accidents happen.

Yes, they do.

This guy Frank Matthews
is gonna kill my brother

unless we pay him the
whole 150 grand by tomorrow.

So what's the plan?

Pay him the whole
150 grand by tomorrow.

Jim, where are we gonna get
a hold of that kind of money?

Still haven't worked
out that part of the plan.

GEORGE: Wait a
minute, forget the money.

Superheroes do not
negotiate with criminals.

We know where Mike's being held.

You smash in there, flex some
muscle, do the Jim-Jim thing.

It's too risky.

I'd suggest the cops,

but that's just more bullets
flying, more questions being asked.

JJ: I can get the money.

The way I did it
before with Uncle Mike.

If you just let me go
to the track, I can...

JJ, I know you wanna
help, but not that way.

What if it's to save
someone's life?

Jim, I know this sounds
strange, but JJ may be right.

Are you serious?

Look, you once
said that you believed

we were given these
powers to protect people.

Who's more important
to protect than family?

(IN SINGSONG) I
know what you did.

You tried to have her killed.

I have no idea what
you're talking about.

After all the things I've done,

you try and take away the one
thing that matters most to me?

There was a time when
your job mattered to you.

Oh, that's over.

You and I are done.

You and I will never be done.

We're family.

Family doesn't hurt each other.

Families hurt each
other all the time.

It's what they do best.

(CHUCKLES)

You do remember
what I do best, don't you?

You're much less intimidating

without the serum coursing
through your bloodstream.

That means I'll just have
to work that much harder

to make you pay for
what you tried to do.

Here you are, sir.

Thank you. Mmm-hmm.

JJ, you're amazing!

I've never seen this
much money in my life.

All right, look.

We got two more races left,
so you gotta make this count.

Okay.

Okay, there's a 12 to 1 long shot
running in the next race, Shady Oh.

His odds are increased by 3%
when he runs in the fourth lane.

And because of the rain last week,
the track is 6% slower than normal.

Great. How much should we bet?

Let it ride.

What, all of it?

Well, that's what "let
it ride" means, Dad.

Okay.

MAN ON PA: The flag is up
and they're off and running.

Here we go!

Come on, Shady Oh.

Followed by Rodrigo...

Come on! Here we go!

All right! Come on!
Let's go. Come on!

Go, Shady Oh! Come on!

It's Shady Oh, with
Number 5 right behind.

Yes!

Dad!

MAN: Catch up! Catch up!

Round the final turn they come.

And Shady Oh has taken
a commanding lead...

Come on. Let's go!

As the horses make their
way into the home stretch.

Yeah, come on!

Shady Oh is slowing down.

BOTH: No!

In a shocking turn of events,
Shady Oh has pulled up lame!

No!

It's Rodrigo in first...

JJ, what happened? You
said it was a sure thing!

It was. I mean, there's no
way to calculate an injury.

What does this
mean for Uncle Mike?

It's okay, kid, it's okay.

Just means I have to
make a new plan, that's all.

I'm sorry. Come on.

Mikey, you all right?

Apart from the gun
to my head, yeah.

Where's the money?

I don't have it.

So, what, you showed up to see
your brother's head get ventilated?

Is that it?

I showed up to trade.

Him for me.

Jimmy. It's okay.

You let him go, you can
shoot me all you want.

Sounds fine to me.

But don't be such a stranger.

I prefer to do things
up close and personal.

Jim, you can't do this.

We have no choice.

Trading your life for his?

If this ain't brotherly
love, I don't know what is.

Jimmy!

What the hell were you thinking?

I think a simple "thank
you" would suffice.

Thank you.

Tough guy.

Looks like you found your man.

Thanks, but I don't know
what you're talking about.

My brother.

Litchfield searched his locker
yesterday, found the pills.

They are going to suspend
him until he can be evaluated.

Well, maybe that's
what he needed.

No, what he needed
was to be left alone.

His life was fine before...

Your brother's getting
the help he needs

and if that means you're
gonna hate me for it, I don't care.

Actually, you do care.

I just don't understand why.

Well, maybe it's because

I know what it feels
like to have people think

that you're
something you're not.

And I think you feel
that same way, too.

See ya.

So my entire life, I've been
obsessed with accidents.

You know, the randomness of them

and how they happen
and why they happen.

Well, Katie, it's natural after
what you've just been through

to wanna make sense of it.

Maybe there's no such
thing as an accident.

I mean, my whole life I've
been obsessed with superheroes

and then my boss
turns out to be one?

I meant I think that's more
of a coincidence than a...

I'm not going to Miami.

I became a scientist so I
could understand phenomena

that would help me save
lives and change the world.

I get to do that every
day working with you.

You're my very own
real-life superhero.

Oh, Katie...

What can I say?

You're the coolest
accident I've ever known.

Thank you.

These have
kick-ass arch support.

Thanks.

Hey, this side is
missing a stripe.

One man's mistake is
another man's free shoes, JJ.

And I'll send you six
more boxes each week.

I know how you burn though 'em.

Thank you, Mike.

You're welcome.

(LAUGHS)

Shoes are free, Jimmy.

It's not from me.

Turns out the precinct had a
little reward out for Frank Matthews.

Jim, I mean, life in
prison for Frank Matthews

means my debt is null and void.

Come on, I can't...
It's not for you.

It's for the baby.

You know, I went to
that ultrasound yesterday

thinking I was gonna tell Tracy

the best gift I could give this
kid would be to just stay away.

But then,

I saw my baby

moving around in there.

I felt like my whole life
changed at that very moment.

You know what, I think
you're gonna do just fine, bro.

Well, if I can be
half the dad you are,

I've got a decent shot.

Jim, when Dad had his
heart attack and you called...

We don't have to do that...

I was in the parking lot.

What?

Yeah, I was sitting in
the hospital parking lot.

I couldn't go in.

Why not?

Because he had you.

I didn't think Dad needed
to see me and you.

Wait a minute.

And I didn't know you needed me.

I didn't. I didn't know.

Oh, Mike, I'm sorry.

Of course I needed you.
You're my little brother,

I'm always gonna need you, man.

(GRUNTS) Okay,
all right. Jim. Jim.

Super-strength.

You all right?

Yeah.

Thanks for saving my life.

Oh...

You've been saving
mine for years.

Guess that makes us even.

Yeah.

(PHONE RINGING)

Hello?

George, what was so important
I had to leap right over here?

Well, I was checking out the fine
print of my homeowner's insurance

and guess what I found?

What?

Total umbrella coverage.

So, think house and content.

Earthquake, fire...

Theft?

Thank you, Bayside Mutual.

(EXCLAIMING)

This is amazing!

Now this is a lair.

Let's just say that
we're way past Wi-Fi.

I think it goes without saying.

I'm very disappointed.

I don't know how she got away.

Is that an excuse or an apology?

An apology. It
won't happen again.

No, it won't.

Because we're gonna
try a different approach.

I know exactly how
you can help me.
