Parenthood (2010–2015): Season 3, Episode 8 - In-Between - full transcript

How do you exactly
kiss someone?

- Is it Amy?
- Yeah.

This application is
looking pretty grim.

You might wanna start having
a serious conversation

about upping the receptionist's salary.

Jabar told me he spent the whole
day playing trucks with Dr. Joe.

It was a short visit.
No one got hurt.

I don't want to be replaced.

You do owe it to each other to
have a conversation before we...

Bring around anyone
we're dating.

Is there anything that
I need to worry about?



No, I adore you.

Seth, you need help.

I'm gonna regret not listening to my wife,
cause if I did, we'd still be a family.

And what relevant experience do you
have that qualifies you for this job?

Define "relevant experience."

You know?

I like music.

It's a job
answering the phone.

Been doin' that
for my entire life.

Yeah.

For starters,
I know all the local bands.

Tell us
about your last job.

Why?
What have you heard?

Where do you see yourself
in two years?



Look, I don't even know where
I'm goin' after this meeting.

Owning my own label.

Probably
owning my own label.

Ultimately
I'd really like to manage,

so I'm hoping that I'll be
on track to do that.

Anything else
you want to tell us?

I don't make coffee.

I'm gonna need the entire
month of November off.

I'd like health care.
You know, 401K.

- Okay.
- Great.

- This was great.
- Yeah.

I guess
just one more thing?

Yeah, uh,
why did you drop out?

Honestly,
because I knew in my heart

that I'd rather be at bottom of
the hill three nights a week,

listening to the next great band
than finishing my master's,

and, um, as cheesy as it sounds,
I think that life is just

way too short to do anything
other than what you love.

- Yeah.
- [Laughs]

- Yeah, she was good.
- Oh, she's just good?

You know, we got some
other people we have to see,

we've got other applicants
lined up.

Listen, she's smart,
she's humble,

she knows more about the
music scene than I do,

so I don't see
what's the problem.

It's a process, Crosby,
we've gotta follow it through.

Yeah, we just took a look
at what's out there.

What is your hesitation?

- I...
- Is it 'cause she's hot?

It's 'cause she's hot.

I barely even noticed
that she was hot.

- Oh, you... you didn't notice
that she was hot?

Did you have your eyes closed?
[Laughs]

Listen, it does not make us
sleazy if we hire a pretty girl.

And this is not
the shoe industry, okay?

We have musicians in here.

It would not kill us to have
a little eye candy up front.

I'm gonna pretend
you didn't say that, okay?

I know it's not
the shoe industry.

Well, you're already
pretending

that you didn't notice
how hot she is,

so why not pretend that,
as well?

All right, you know what?
I admit it. She was attractive.

Okay? You happy?
Oh, okay, good.

Here we go,
now we're speaking honestly.

Listen,
is this a Kristina fear?

You think she's gonna
be threatened, or something?

'Cause she'll be fine.

Oh, really?
And you know this how?

'Cause you guys have
been married for 20 years,

and you're somehow
still hot for each other.

It doesn't make any
sense, but... - yeah.

- Or not?
- Hmm?

- What's the matter?
Things aren't as...

- look, we're just experiencing
the usual dry spell

after a pregnancy, okay?
It's no big deal.

Don't have to talk about it
anymore.

- Okay.
- All right.

Maybe
you need to seduce her.

I don't need to seduce her,
okay?

I'm just sayin', you could
make her a nice meal,

and put on music, and light candles.
That'll work.

That's not what this
is about, Crosby.

You have no idea
what this is.

This is about the sensitive
time after having a baby,

when the woman has
been through so much,

the man can't initiate things,
okay?

She doesn't feel attractive,
he's gotta be patient,

it can go on for months.
It's just...

- okay, I'm sorry I asked.

You don't know
what I'm up against here.

Back to Rachel.

Are we gonna hire her?
Yes or no?

Before you answer,
let me warn you,

we can't rule her out,
just because she's attractive.

That's illegal.
[Laughs]

And I do not want to end up
in a lawsuit over this.

- Yeah, discrimination.
- Exactly.

- Against attractiveness.
- Yup.

- Well...
- It can go both ways.

Thank you for keeping us
out of the courtroom.

You're welcome.

- Aw, brother.
- But as far as...

- I tell ya,
I can't keep track of...

- you said four.
- Two.

- Hey, guys.
- This is not... [Laughs]

- Hey, Mr. braverman.
- Hi, Amy.

Grandson.
Hey.

You haven't seen my keys,
have you?

Um, I don't think so, no.

- Huh.
- Did you take his keys?

- I didn't take...
I didn't take your keys.

- Hey, Drew, did you invite
Amy to the... to the party?

- No, I...
- No, what party?

- You didn't tell her?
- My uncles are opening

a recording studio, and it's...
- A recording studio, yeah,

on Haight-Ashbury, right?

There's gonna be music,
and food, and free bar.

Wait. I mean,
forget that last part.

It's gonna be a tough night,
I mean, let's be honest.

- It actually...
it sounds pretty cool to me.

Do you want to go?
Yeah!

- You want to... I mean...
- Yeah, can we go?

- We can certainly go.
I don't know if it's gonna be...

- yeah, we're goin', okay.
I'll put you on the list, and...

- The list.
- You're in,

you're gonna have a great time.
There's a list.

We're on the list.
Whatever the list is.

Well, you should invite your
girlfriend to stuff, Drew,

come on, man.

And if you find my keys...

- sorry, he's...
- No.

I didn't say anything
about this.

- It's all good.
- Good.

I guess we're on the list.

Â♪ Put your dreams away
for now Â♪

dude, you're gonna break it.
Let me do it.

Let me try it.

Give it a little...
a little love.

Ah, magic touch.

Hey.

[Sighing] Um...

I think housekeeping
skipped a room.

[Laughs]

Yeah, I know it sucks,
but it's affordable.

- Oh, wow.
- Um...

Oh. Wow!
Yeah.

- Yeah, I mean...
[Laughs]

Really?
It's so... it's so far.

Got a bus stop,
right at the corner.

Oh, okay.

- [Sighs]
- So what are you...

what are you gonna do now?

I'm just going to, uh,
you know,

take a few days
and settle in,

and I got a couple numbers
for group from, uh...

- for meetings?
- Just 'cause I'm outta there

doesn't mean the work stops,
right?

Right.

Do you have anyone,
you know,

like one of the guys
you can call?

- Uh, I don't...
nah.

That's not a good idea.
Right.

- Well...
- Come here.

Thank you.
[Laughs]

I appreciate it.

Now I know what to get you
for housewarming.

What?

Anything.

I know... 'cause I'll
talk to you anyway.

I'll talk to you later.
Okay.

- And I'll have the kids call.
- Yeah, yeah.

Say... say hey
to Drew and Amber and...

I'll call you.
I will call you.

- Okay.
- Okay.

You should get like
a plastic bag for that,

before you put anything...
You think? [Laughs]

Else on it,
but okay, all right.

Okay, will do.
Well, I'm proud of you.

Okay.

- Okay.
- Okay.

I guess I was just
more surprised

by the name of the motel,
the Relapse Inn.

[Laughter]
Very funny.

But please don't worry,
he's gonna do great.

It's just... it's farther away
than I wish it were,

and... and, uh,
I don't know.

Yeah.

I mean, is it, like, gonna be
detrimental to his recovery?

I mean, is he safe?
Is there, like...

of cour... yes, honey,
it's, you know,

he has a counselor...
I don't know. I don't know.

I don't think it's
the most helpful environment,

so we'll just hope for the...
you know, hope for the best.

- Do you want chips on this?
- Yeah.

[Sighs]

Uh, this is gonna sound crazy,
but...

What if he stayed
at my place?

I mean, it's closer,
and maybe...

Where would you stay?

I could stay here.

If it's helpful.
Oh, Amber, you can't do that.

No, no, no.
It's your new place.

Mom, it's okay, you know,

if it'll be helpful for you,
and stuff.

It's totally okay.

Okay, so I'm off.
Uh, just a heads-up,

we're babysitting
on Friday night.

Mm.

Oh, Friday night,
no, no, no.

That's the opening of...
the launching out.

- We gotta be there.
- Adam asked us to baby-sit.

Yeah, but my gosh, this is a
big night for Adam and Crosby,

we gotta be there
to support 'em.

We're supporting them
this way.

- We're watching their kids.
- Golly.

- Yeah.
- This is Haight-Ashbury,

you know?

It's your stomping grounds.
You are Haight-Ashbury.

Can't they find somebody else?

Well, you know,
it's Kristina's first night

away from the baby,
so that's why they asked us.

I think we
have to be helpful.

So see ya.
Uh...

[Grunts]

I don't get it.

You ready to head out,
buddy?

Mmm... yeah.

You want to pack up
your markers?

Yeah.

What sweatshirt is...
oh!

You got a Hogwarts academy
sweatshirt?

- Yeah.
- What are you,

- the coolest dude in the world?
- No.

I think I need one of these.
Hey,

speakin' of which,
I was thinkin',

tonight maybe we could order
a couple gluten-free pizzas,

and then get through the rest
of Goblet of Fire.

What do you say?

- I'm up to it.
- You're up to it?

- Yeah.
- I love Harry Potter.

Me, too. You know who else
loves Harry Potter?

- Jensen?
- No.

- Sydney?
- Dr. Joe.

Dr. Joe likes it.
Well, most people do.

Is he readin' all seven books
like we are?

No, he watches the movies.

The other night
we all watched.

Harry Potter and
the Half-blood Prince.

Dr. Joe showed you
The Half-blood Prince?

Yeah.

Well...
[Sighs]

Buddy, that's like... that's
the book after the next book.

I know,
but it was so awesome.

Yup, that's awesome.

All right,
let's get outta here.

Hey.

Hey.
Come in.

- Oh, cool place.
- Thanks.

Wow, look at you,
you're doin' it.

I mean, you're on your own.
Guess so.

Shoulda seen
my first place.

I shared this hell-hole
with three guys,

and I had to sleep in
a closet, literally.

- Sounds fun.
- I guess

now that I think about it, I'm
not doin' much better, huh?

[Laughs]

Uh, okay.
So let's see,

here's the keys.

This weird-looking one is for the
dumpster outside downstairs.

Don't forget to lock it, okay?
Trust me.

Okay.

Um, you can have
whatever's in the kitchen.

[Laughs]

Obviously, it's not much.
Looks like oatmeal,

some marinara,
and some pop-tarts, so...

Good luck with that.
Um, the thermostat,

[laughs] It's completely
full of it, so don't bother.

Oh, and the shower's
really leaky,

so just make sure you turn it
really hard to turn it off.

Okay, I got it.
Uh, lock the dumpster,

uh, marinara,

forget the thermostat,
and leaky shower.

You got it.

Okay, well,
I guess that's it.

Um, I'm actually off to work,
so see you later.

Okay.

Hey, Amber?

Thanks, you just... you don't
know how much this means to me.

I'm doing this for mom,
just so we're clear.

See ya.

So cute.

Well, is it easier
if I just deal with it?

Max, no snacks, honey,
we're about to eat dinner.

Yeah, yeah.
[Baby coos]

You okay, Nora?

Just give me one minute.
Are you gonna stay for dinner?

Uh, well, no,
I just popped by to see Adam.

Okay, well there's plenty
if you want.

[Baby talk]

Mom,
these are not mashing right.

No, don't mash them,
it's vegetables.

Ooh, boy, I think there's
been a problem over here,

oh, God, I smell it!

Oh, hey, Kristina, Kristina...
- Okay, I got it.

There's an accident goin' on
over here.

Oh, poopie?
Just a little poopie, huh?

- Just... [Laughs]
- Okay, honey, do mom a favor,

can you change her upstairs?
I'm sorry.

- Oh, yeah, okay.
- Yeah.

Thank for that, honey.

All right,
what's the emergency?

- Hey, ho, I need you to...
over here.

- What?
- On the Q.T.

Honey, do Mom a favor?

- What's goin' on?
- Well, it's kinda confidential.

- Yeah?
- Uh, look,

you know this whole thing...
the babysittin' thing,

your mom says she wasn't
invited to the party, yeah,

she feels, uh,

well, a little hurt,
a little upset...

- what are you talkin' about?
- Well, she feels... shunned,

slighted...
Shunned? I talked to her,

she didn't seem like she was
interested in going at all.

Well, you know,
that's how she is.

I mean, she makes a commitment,
she follows through...

- she's gonna
watch the baby.

No, she follows through
on stuff,

but I think
she really wants to go.

I think her feelings are hurt,
to tell you the truth,

is what happened.
Wow, really?

Yeah, I mean, she was a little
upset, but you know how she is,

she's gonna... - do you
want me to talk to her?

Get another babysitters,
maybe.

Yeah, I'll...
I'll talk to Kristina.

I don't want mom's feelings to
be hurt, I'll talk to Kristina,

and we'll get
a new babysitter.

There you go. That's all
I'm askin'. Thank you.

- Okay.
- Appreciate it.

Okay, there you go.
Phew!

Okay, see you later.

So it's Friday.
Are you free on Friday

to come to my brother's
opening party?

I'm not afraid.
[Laughs]

You're not afraid
to meet my entire family?

You don't want to keep me
under wraps any longer?

[Laughter]

I have not been keeping you
under wraps.

I have been saving you
from having to deal with...

- does... that's Amber.
- Hi!

- Hey.
- Hi, Amber.

[Laughing]
Hi, Mr. Cyr.

You know,
you can call me Mark.

- Really?
- Yeah.

- You sure?
- Yeah.

- Maybe we should just
jump right to "dad." Is that...

- oh, my God!
- What?

[Laughs]

- Well?
- What's wrong with you?

How was work, huh?

- Uh, work was inspirational.
- Okay.

You know, every time you see
someone's eyes light up

when you pass 'em
that frothy beverage,

it's just... it's like I'm giving
a gift to myself, actually.

I feel it,
I feel the magic.

- [Laughs]
- It's beautiful.

Do you want to pull up
a chair, and sit and...

- just the three of us?
- Come on.

No, I don't think so.
[Laughter]

I gotta go upstairs and get
settled in anyway, so...

- all right.
- I'm gonna go to bed.

- Okay, honey.
- You kids have fun.

Both: All right.
- Not too much fun.

- You're killing me.
- Bye.

- Bye.
- I'll make you

a nice bowl of cereal
in the morning.

- [Laughing] Oh, great.
- [Laughs]

Um, so what's going on?

She's staying here?
Did she move back, or...

- sorry, I meant
to tell you this.

Seth is staying at Amber's
place just for a little while.

- Oh. I thought... I thought
he was staying at a hotel.

- He was, but it... it ended up
looking more like

the place you go to do drugs,
and not the place

that helps you recover.
Okay.

- I mean, he couldn't stay here.
- No, no. Yeah, that...

no, it's... I'm surprised that...
that's very generous of Amber.

Yeah.
So...

The party...
Yes.

Is gonna have everybody there,
are you ready?

- I'm... I'm in.
[Chuckles]

Um...

I cannot believe shit
like that happens.

- Talkin' about Potter-gate
again, aren't you?

You know what? Yeah, I am,
and don't call it that.

Do you know how long it takes
to read those books?

I know it's not as important
as your sex crisis at home,

but it's important to me.

- Okay, one,
that was uncalled-for,

and two, Jasmine admitted
wrong-doing, and apologized,

so what more do you want?

You know, you should really
think about being her attorney.

You know, you're always takin'
her side, you should really...

- I'm not always taking her
side, this...

- consider it.
- Besides, this isn't about

what Jasmine did
or didn't do, okay?

This is about Dr. Joe, and you
feeling he's encroaching.

And you know what? I think
you gotta just rise above,

and not just for Jabbar's
sake, but for your own.

You're just gonna
make yourself miserable.

Yeah,
well I hate rising above.

Okay.

Oh, here, let me help.

- Hi.
- Oh, he's such a cutie.

- Oh, it's a girl, but...
- She, I'm sorry.

- [Baby babbles]
- Say hi!

Um, so how can I help you?

- We're here to see Adam.
- Okay.

And this is regarding?

- Being his wife. I'm just
here to say hi, and just...

- oh, my God, I am so sorry.
- This is Nora.

It's okay, who are you?
Um, I'm Rachel.

- Oh.
- It's my first day.

Here, let me help you.
Um,

you want to take this, then?
Yeah.

- Hey, honey.
- Hey.

How are you?

- My beautiful wife, huh?
- Good, how are you?

Say "Hi, Daddy."

"Hi, Daddy."
How are you doing, Nora?

How you doin', sweetie?
Good.

- We just came by to say hi.
- Oh, great.

We were cooped up
in the house, I was just like,

"I gotta get out,
I gotta get out."

Uh, honey, you just have a
little bit of milk on your chin,

and then a little spit-up
in your hair.

- Oh, I will grab you water.
- Oh, that's okay,

it happens, you know what?
Thank you, Rachel.

It's totally fine.

Seriously?
What?

Your new hire.

From t&s to t&a, honey, wow.

Honey, she wasn't dressed
like that at the interview.

Oh, my God, you guys can
afford to hire one employee,

and you hire...
- She was dressed

more conservatively, she was...
- How old is she?

Kristina, she was really
the best person for the job.

- Adam, I believe you.
- She's very smart. She's very...

- I just feel like
it's just a little weird

that she's like, I mean,
like a supermodel.

You know.
What?

- Just... she's just...
- Yeah, I know.

Honey... honey, did you
talk to my mom?

I did, I did, and she said
that everything covered,

the pitchers, the planters,
the bowls...

- Great, awesome.
- To save on some money for...

yeah, the rentals, so...
which is really kind of cool.

- Here.
- Thank you, sweetheart.

- Of course.
- [Sighs] Wow, so, yeah.

Okay, thank you.

- And, um...
- Yeah.

- I also spoke with Sarah...
- Oh, good, about the bartend...

- and she said that, uh,
she's gonna get the bar...

- hey, uh, Rachel,
I'll get that.

Oh, no, it's okay.
I got it.

- That was unfortunate.
- What?

- Huh?
- The bartender's covered,

so...

she's gonna help out
with that.

- Yeah. Thank you.
- You're welcome.

- Okay.
- She can get 'em for cheap.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

That's good.
Good to save some money.

- Real cheap.
- Cheap, good.

- We're gonna go. I...
- It's a recording studio,

honey, it's not
the shoe business.

I don't want to keep you,
I just...

I got a lot of stuff to do,
I got a lot of stuff going on.

- Okay, what do you gotta do?
- No, I got it.

Give me a kiss, come on.

Honey. Oh.
[Kiss]

Okay.
"Bye, Daddy."

I'll see... I'll see you, sweetie.
Bye-bye.

- "Have a good afternoon."
- All right.

- Thank you, honey.
- See you soon.

- I'll see you later, bye-bye.
- Bye.

Oh.
[Sighs]

Hey, I wanted to,
um, say I'm sorry about

my grandfather the other day,
[Laughing] Oh.

I mean, I didn't tell him you
were my girlfriend, I just...

I mean, he thinks
he hears things, it's just...

- I mean, I was...
- It's... [Laughs] It's okay.

I mean, I totally get it.
We hang out a lot, so...

I understand why he got
the wrong idea.

Yeah, um,

you know, actually I was
thinking we could, I mean...

if we don't want to
confuse the elderly, I mean,

we could just tell him that
you are my girlfriend.

If you wanted.

- Yeah.
- Yeah?

I mean, well,
we might as well,

I mean, tell everyone,
so no one...

- [Laughs]
- Gets confused. [Laughs]

- Okay.
- Yeah?

- Yeah.
- I mean,

I'm being dead serious.
Me, too.

Great. [Laughs]
Cool.

Do you want to
make out now?

- Yeah.
- Okay.

We've got this great DJ,
and I would love it

if you and dad could both make
it to the party Friday night.

Oh, that's so great,
we'd love to come,

but, you know, we're more than
happy to watch the kids, really.

Well, I... look,
I know that's the plan,

and I really appreciate it,

but it's a big night
for me and Crosby,

we want our parents there
to celebrate with us,

and we can find
a babysitter.

We'll get a babysitter.
It's all good.

- Really, Zeek?
- What's that?

- [Laughs]
- What?

He told you I wanted
to go to the party, right?

Yeah. Wha... ?

- What is wrong with you?
- Well, I mean,

come on, it's a big deal,
everybody's gonna be there.

I think we should be there.
Nobody's gonna be there.

We discussed this.

- Well...
- This isn't just because

it's Kristina's first night
away from the baby.

Now, I would feel
more comfortable

if I was watching the baby, so
if you want to go to the party,

go ahead. You go.

I'm in. I'm goin', then.
Great, all right.

- What?
- Okay, so you're comin'.

Yeah, put me... yes, I'm in.
[Dishes rattle]

- Oh, sorry. I'm sorry.
- Oh, my God.

- Uh, listen...
- Yeah, hey...

- you are goin', okay?
- Uh-huh.

- You're going to the party?
- Yeah.

And you're gonna
watch the kids. Okay? Great.

- That's great.
- I'll see ya.

Oh, no, you gotta put
me on the list, Adam.

There's no list, dad,
you just gotta show up.

- Okay.
- Oh, great.

That's great.
You're great.

I know you could
do it yourself,

but I brought you groceries.
[Laughing] Oh, God.

- Is that dumb?
- No, it's very good.

- [Chuckles]
- Thank you.

I just wanted to have
an excuse to check up on you.

Well, I appreciate it.

- How's it goin'?
- Good.

- What'd you do today?
- Took a walk, and, uh,

did some reading
and some yoga.

No, you did not.

Oh, you d...
oh, you did?

Can you please
resist the urge to mock me?

No, no, I'm sorry.
I didn't realize you did...

- like this?
- Yeah, all that.

- Is that something?
- I did it all.

- The tree?
- [Laughs]

- I can't believe you did yoga!
- Yeah, well, thank...

- talked to Drew.
- Oh, you did?

Yeah, who's this girl
he's hangin' out with?

This Amy? I don't...
I know nothing.

She's nice, and very sweet.
They're cute together.

But he doesn't tell me.
Well, 'cause you're the mom.

He's 16, you're gonna get name,
rank, and serial number.

What'd you get out of him?

Oh, nothin', just every hairy
detail of his first kiss.

- Shut up.
- Yeah.

I didn't know any of that.

- Father/son kind of stuff.
- No, tell me.

- No way.
- [Gasps]

[Laughing] Why you?
[Laughs]

- Tell me a hairy detail.
- Ain't gonna happen.

[Drawer collapses]
Oh!

Hey.

Oh, God.
[Laughs]

- Are y...
- It's okay.

Everything's broken in here.
Look at this. Ugh.

- Oh, man. [Sighs]
- [Chuckles]

What?

It's a birthday card,
from when she was eight.

From who?

From me. Probably
the only one I ever sent her.

Let me see.

I can't believe
she still has that thing.

- I can.
- [Sighs]

We would've made
a great family, huh?

I want to make this right.

Heh.

[Sighs]

I'm so happy with Mark.
It isn't that

I'm... you know, I look at him and
I think, "what am I, crazy?"

I... [Laughs] I have the best
thing I've ever had in my life.

Really. I mean,
it's not...About...Him.

It's just...

To see Seth becoming the man
I always thought he could be

all those years,
it is kind of moving.

And I do picture it.

Mm. He's the father
of your children.

It has to do with your whole
sense of being a family again.

No, mom, I...
I picture the two of us...

Together.

Wow.

And then the timing
is just so strange,

because I've never
been happier.

Mark keeps asking me if there's
anything to worry about,

and I keep saying no.
I'm so happy with him.

Okay, yeah, give it a go.

[Casts spell]

[Cracking noise]
Oh!

Oh. Oh.

How do I look?
Exceptionally ordinary.

Brilliant.

Hi.

Coffee?
Hey, uh yeah, thank you.

I just don't understand
what's goin' on,

there should be printing.
Hmm.

Is it connected
to the router?

Uh, yeah...
I think it is.

Here,
let me try something.

Hmm, just one more second.
All right.

- Oh, hey.
- Hey!

Shall I come back?

I didn't realize
you guys were partying.

- Uh, no.
- We were just...

- Gettin' the printer...
- I think, actually...

- I think it should be working.
- Oh, look at that.

- We got it. It's all working.
- Oh.

- You got it.
- Yeah.

- Thank you, Rachel.
- No problem.

Thank you.

[Grunts]

Needed a little help there?
Couldn't figure out the printer?

- [Laughs]
- How's your heart rate?

- That's... I'm fine.
- Oh, really?

- Yeah.
- Yeah, you look flush.

You okay?

Crosby, knock it off.

That was
a very compromising position.

She came in here,
she helped me out.

I didn't know what was goin' on.
Daddy!

It looked like
she was helping you out.

Oh, look who's here!
[Laughs] Thank goodness!

Hey!
[Laughing] Hey, buddy.

- Jabbar.
- Hi, Uncle Adam.

- How you doin', buddy?
- You just saved Uncle Adam.

- Mommy's downstairs.
- Oh, okay.

-Let's go say good-bye to her.
- Okay.

- Hey, I watched
Half-blood Prince.

- You did?
- Yeah.

Cool.

I can't wait
to talk about it with you.

Me, too.

[Sighs]

- Oh, no, I'm not wearing this.
- Why not?

- No way.
- Kristina, let me see it.

[Sighs] Julia, it's just... it's
not... it just doesn't feel right.

- Well...

- Okay.
- I don't know,

it's just a little bit like...
- Very pretty from the back.

- The color's pretty.
- Uh-huh.

- But it...
[Laughs]

I just feel really
self-conscious in it.

- Why?
- I just feel like

it's just not, like...
- [Gasps]

- I mean, looking...
- Whoo!

- Stop it.
- Your boobs are huge.

They're so huge.

- It's amazing.
- Okay, that is why I don't...

I don't want to wear this.
- It's wonderful.

- It looks ridiculous.
- It's ridiculously hot.

- Look at... look at yourself.
- I look like Dolly parton.

- No. [Laughs]
- Yes, I do. It's just...

I'm, like,
really uncomfortable in this.

- And I just...
- Kristina, you look hot.

I don't even
want to go tonight.

I don't want to leave Nora
alone, and if I drink,

- I'm gonna have to pump...
- If?

Yeah, pump and dump
when I come home,

and it's just like
this big ordeal.

- Let me see... Kristina.
- [Laughs]

- Kristina.
- It's so terrible.

Okay, we're gonna be
standing there

next to 20-year-olds in size 0
little miniskirts and things.

- Great.
- So you need to

break out the big guns.

Hey, how cool was it
when Harry went in that cave,

and the things
came out of the pool?

- Um, that was pretty cool.
- Yeah.

Were you scared?
I was... I was scared.

I was a little scared,
not that much, though.

Ooh, and then Bellatrix
showed up at the Weasley house?

[Videogame sounds]

Daddy, I don't want to talk
about the movie anymore.

[Sighs] Okay.

I want to talk
about football!

Oh, really, you want
to talk about football?

Yeah.

Now, that's something
I can talk about.

I happen to be somewhat
of an expert on football.

- I'm going to a game.
- What kind of game?

I'm going to a game
with Dr. Joe.

He got tickets.

We are going next Sunday.

- To a football game?
- Yeah.

You and Dr. Joe?

Yeah.

You got a second?

Crosby. Yeah.
Dude, come on in.

Is everything okay?
No, it's not okay, Joe.

I'm fine with you datin' Jasmine.
That's terrific.

But I need you to recognize
that there are moments

I want to share with my son,
me and him, not you and him.

Harry Potter?
That was one of 'em,

but I don't think you knew
about that, so I let it go.

And now the football game?

I am not letting you take him
to his first football game.

I deserve to be there
with him.

I'm the one that gets to see
his face light up

when he sees the field
for the first time,

and I'm the one who gets to
relive that moment

for the rest of my life,
not you.

So I need you
to respect that.

[Door closes]

- Hey.
- Hey.

I just forgot my lipstick, and
I have to go to this party,

so can I get it really fast?
Yeah.

Thanks.

- Wow, you look great.
- Thanks.

Hey, I tried to fix
that shower head in there,

but it was beyond repair,

so I just swapped out
the hardware.

I hope you don't mind.
Is that all right?

- Thanks. You didn't have to
do that, but... thanks.

Well, it's the least
I could do.

Got some good news,

I think I found a pretty
great apartment downtown,

not too far from your mom,

and I got a lead on a job
givin' guitar lessons.

Wait.

So you're not gonna
tour anymore?

- Well, no, that whole life
is just... it's not good for me.

I want to, you know,
set down some roots,

and, I don't know,
start over?

Good for you.

Well, I gotta go, but, um, enjoy
your ratatouille, or whatever.

Okay.
Have fun at your party.

Thanks.

Both: Hey!

I've never seen you
without your guitar.

- Hey, how are ya?
- Hey, good.

I hope you come record here.

How you doing?
I'm Adam.

I'm Crosby.

- This not hot shot here.
- That guy?

Some of your clients
come in and record with us.

...And, uh, played me some of
your music, it was fantastic.

Okay?
There you go.

Though you were gonna
be dancing.

I cannot believe you made me
wear this dress.

I look like a Hooters girl.
No, you don't.

- Guys, um...
- They wear hot pants.

- Hey.
- Sorry, um, this is...

- this is my girlfriend, Amy.
- Hi.

- [Laughs] Hi.
- Cool. Good to see you.

- Hi, Amy.
- Hi, Amy.

- Hi.
- Nice to meet you.

- I'm aunt Julia.
- I'm aunt Kristina.

I just had a baby.

Oh, congratulations.

Well, we should probably get
a drink, on that note, so...

Okay. [Laughs]
Nice to meet you.

- Nice to meet you.
- Way to go, Drew.

- Like, are you a
musician, or... - um...

- Hi.
- Hey.

- She's 17.
- That's my dad.

Nice meeting you.

- Hi.
- Where is your boyfriend?

Yeah, he's here.
He's, uh, he's over there.

- Oh, my gosh.
- Isn't he so cute?

He's really cute.

Dad wanted to talk to him,
and ask him some questions.

- Oh, no.
- Uh-oh.

You know, when you guys first
met, she was on the fence,

- because, you know...
- Ridin' your little bike

around the neighborhood...
[Laughs]

When she's
learnin' how to drive.

I gave that bike away.

Whatever happened
with that whole cell phone

picture scandal?
You get sent

to the principal's office
for that?

I did.
Uh, that was embarrassing.

What happened
with the cell phone?

Uh, he kissed Sarah,
and some kids took a picture

- with a phone, and...
- Yeah, it was...

it kinda upset Drew.
Yeah, it's cool.

You kissed my daughter
at school?

Everyone was
supposed to be in class.

- These were two late comers.
- Oh, hey.

- Hey.
- I made it.

- Yeah.
- It's awesome.

Really, really nice.

Yeah, thank you.

I mean,
can you believe this place?

You know what?
I actually can.

You probably don't remember
this, but when we first met

you talked about
opening your own studio.

- Really?
- Yeah.

- I did.
- You did.

[Laughs]

And here you are now, eight
years later, holding court.

- Yeah, I don't know about
holding court, but... [Laughs]

You're doin' it.
You done good, Crosby.

You should be proud.
Thank you.

- You're welcome.
- I feel kinda proud.

- You should be.
- You want a drink?

I'd love one.
Thank you.

Does he look like
he's having a bad time?

No, he looks like
he's dealing with it well.

I think I maybe
should go rescue him.

- Like a peck?
- Yeah, like a peck.

They were so fast
with the camera phone.

- Sarah, what were you kissing...
- Hi, I have to talk to you

about that very important topic
that we were discussing.

- Oh!
- I think you've

had enough time here, right?
[Laughs]

No, he was enjoying
talking to us.

- Okay, well, who wouldn't?
- I... I will.

- Okay.
- I'll see you guys...

[laughter]

- They look happy.
- Yeah. [Laughs]

She deserves that.
It's good.

- Mmm.
- You should try the dumplings.

- They're insane.
- Oh, yeah?

Did you have one?
Yeah, I had a couple.

- Did you?
- Mm-hmm.

They are, they're crispy,
yet tender.

[Laughs]
[Laughs] Exactly.

So how are you doin'?
You like workin'...

- Oh, I love it.
- For my husband?

- Yeah.
- He's great, huh?

He is great.
The guys are totally great,

and it's just, um, oh, I think
you spilled something...

- Mmm?
- On your dress.

Okay.

Oh, my God.
No, I didn't. Um,

I'm breast-feed...
I'm leaking.

Oh, here.
Take my jacket.

Here.

Are those... I can borrow
it for two seconds?

- Yeah, of course.
- Thank you so much.

No problem.

In the 60s this was here, and
I actually met Grace Slick.

Oh, wow.
Grace who?

Slick.
Grace Slick, she, uh...

Jefferson Airplane?

[Laughs]

Uh, [Clears throat]

[Sighs]

Hey.

- Hey.
- There you are.

What's goin' on?
I was wondering what happened to you.

Oh, nothing,
I was just, um,

standing next to
that goddess that you hired,

and I started leaking,
and...

Oh, what, breast milk?

No, honey, oil.

- [Laughs] Okay.
- Yeah, breast milk.

- Okay.
- No, it's not okay, Adam.

- It's no big deal.
- It was mortifying, okay?

It is a big deal to me.
Okay.

I'm feeling
insecure enough as it is,

and being mixed in
with all these people,

I just like, I felt... [Shudders]
- Okay. All right.

I'm good.

I'm sorry, I just...

- you don't have to apologize,
Kristina, I get it.

Okay.

You know,
for what it's worth, though?

I think you are beautiful.

- Well, you always say that.
- I mean it.

You mean it.

- Look at me.
- I'm looking at you.

Kristina,
if you could just see yourself

the way that I see you.
You are so beautiful.

Absolutely beautiful.

Thanks.
You're nice to me.

And you know what else?
You know what else?

[Kiss]
What?

Kristina,
I am so horny for you.

Oh,
I don't like that word.

- And I want you so bad.
- Okay, okay, stop.

- What?
- [Laughs]

- Come on.
- Stop.

- You need some help with that?
- Okay, no, I'll get there.

- You sure?
- I'm just... yes.

I want to get there, too.
[Laughs] No, I know.

[Laughing] Stop.

- You're nice.
- I love you,

and you are beautiful to me.

- You, too.
- Okay.

- I'll get there, I promise.
- All right.

I'm just a little bit...
I had some champagne.

- Did you?
- And I miss Nora.

I had thought it'd be easier,
going out on a date.

It isn't really a date.
You know who else I miss?

- Mmm?
- You.

I do.

Captain's on board.

Where are them rascals at?

- Hey!
- Hi.

- Wow.
- Hi, rascals.

- Hi, Grandpa.
- Hi, Grandpa!

Wow, you're home early.
How'd it go?

Heck with them.
I'm gonna bring that party

right over here. Yeah.
Oh, no, Zeek.

- Huh?
- No, no, no.

The baby is sleeping.
Wait a minute.

Well, that's Adam and
Kristina's problem, isn't it?

[Jefferson Airplane's
somebody to love]

Â♪ When the truth is found Â♪

Â♪ to be lies Â♪

I don't think I can stop.

Â♪ And all the joy
within you dies Â♪

Â♪ don't you want
somebody to love Â♪

Â♪ don't you need
somebody to love Â♪

Â♪ wouldn't you love
somebody to love Â♪

Grandma, dance with me.
Ready? Spin me.

Grandma, Grandpa's got
the fever like Uncle Adam.

I've got the fever,
that's right.

Â♪ Love, love Â♪

Â♪ Â♪

come on, Max!

[Laughs]

[Acoustic guitar]

[Knocking on the door]

Yeah?
[Door opens]

- Hey.
- Hey, honey. How was the party?

It was good.
It was fun, you know...

Party.
[Laughs]

Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm okay.
[Starts to sob]

[Sighs]

Just...

I need your help
on something.

Yeah.

Um, I just am struggling,
because...

You know, mom has been really
happy the past couple months,

and I haven't seen that
in a while,

but now that you're back,
[Sobs]

You can see
that she still...

- And...
- I get it. I'm...

I'm gettin' in the way,
aren't I?

[Crying] I'm sorry.

[Cries]

[Sighs]

- Hey.
- Hey.

You, uh, you here
to record some tracks?

Well, since you just barged
right into my place of work,

I figured I owed it to you
to do the same.

Yeah, um, about that, I...
I shouldn't have...

Listen, forget about it,

I just stopped by
to give you these.

Uh, you should take Jabbar.

I mean, there's nothin' like
your first football game, right?

Man, these are
really good seats.

I don't know what to say, man,
I... thank you.

- Sure.
- That's, um, crazy nice of you.

Crosby, I, uh,

listen, man, I understand
where you're comin' from.

I really do.

I do, but there's something
that you need to understand.

I'm not going anywhere.

I really like Jasmine

and Jabbar.

This is for real.

So, like it or not, I am going
to be in your boy's life.

Hey, enjoy the game.

Yeah.

[Door closes]

[Catch the wind playing]

Â♪ Â♪

Â♪ in the chilly
hours and minutes Â♪

Â♪ of uncertainty Â♪

Â♪ I want to be in the warm
heart of your loving mind Â♪

Â♪ Â♪

Â♪ to feel you all around me Â♪

hey.

[Laughs] Hey.

Â♪ And to take your hand,
along the sand Â♪

you remember my cousin,
Eric?

I wrote him a couple letters
in rehab, and we started

talkin' on the phone again
after all this time.

He offered me a job
and a place to live.

But it's up in Tahoe.

I know
that's a long way away,

but I'm gonna get down here
as much as I can.

Probably not a lot at first,
but I will.

[Sighs]

[Sniffs]

Yeah.

Â♪ For me to love you now
would be the sweetest thing Â♪

Are you sure?

I just need a fresh start.
Everybody gave up on me.

I gave up on me.
You're the only one who didn't.

I never will.

I love you, Sarah.

I love you, too.

Â♪ Dee Dee Dee Dee,
Dee Dee Dee Â♪

Â♪ when rain has
hung the leaves with tears Â♪

Â♪ I want you near,
to kill my fears... Â♪

- Okay, I gotta go.
- Yeah.

Â♪ To help me
to leave all my blues behind Â♪

Thank you.

Â♪ For standing in your heart
is where I want to be Â♪

Â♪ and long to be Â♪

Â♪ ah, but I may as well
try and catch the wind Â♪

- Hi.
- Hi.

Hey.

- What are you doing?
- What are you doing?

Nothing.

- Hi.
- Mmm.

- What are you doing?
- Nothing.

Â♪ I want you near
to kill my fears Â♪

Honey. Honey.

Â♪ To help me
leave all my blues behind Â♪

Â♪ for standing in your heart
is where I want to be Â♪

Â♪ and long to be Â♪

Â♪ ah, but I may as well
