Parenthood (2010–2015): Season 4, Episode 7 - Together - full transcript

Why can I just stay here?

We're all gonna live together
as a big happy family.

I don't want to go.

Kristina, unfortunately,

one of the nodes
that we removed has cancer.

- I'm sorry... treatment.
- Will it go away?

Do you say that's
she's gonna need chemotherapy?

- Hey. You remember me?
- Hi.

- My grandpa's friend.
- Right.

Would you go out
with me sometime?

Yeah.



I met a guy this summer.

What, are you, like, breaking
up with me or something?

I still want to be friends.

Look, for the record,

I really think this
is an awful idea.

Yes, I know you think
this is a bad idea.

I'm serious.
It's terrible.

I mean, what are you
even thinking?

You know, she's sick.

It's just a nice,
like, get-well basket.

- You're her ex-boyfriend.
- I know.

- Why are you giving her...
- But I'm trying

not to be her ex-boyfriend.
That's the whole point.

This is not the way to do it.



She's gonna think that
it's creepy and... and sad.

I mean, what is this stuff even?
This is her house. That one.

I don't want to talk about it.
Like tea, and like,

a filtering water bottle?

Where did you even get this?
I got it from aunt Kristina.

She got a bunch of baskets
and told me I could take it.

Wait a second, I'm sorry.

You're re-gifting
a cancer patient's...

Yes, I know it sounds bad,
but she told me to take it.

Gift basket
to your ex-girlfriend

who doesn't even want you
to come over.

- Oh, my gosh.
- Please don't do it.

We can have lunch.
Just wait here for me.

Um...

Go, go, go, go, go.
What happened?

What the hell?
I don't know what happened.

- I don't know.
- Oh, my God.

What is this?

All right.
Hey, Max.

This is the third time.
I'm asking you nicely.

Please take Otis for a walk.

- I'm busy, dad.
- Put the video game down.

Do I have to take that
away from you?

No, you don't, actually.

Max, when we got this dog,

you promised that you would help
take care of him.

I am taking care of him.
I'm petting him.

Giving him love and affection.

You know what?
Cut the crap, Max.

That's of huge importance
right now.

Get outside and take the dog
out for a walk now.

Good morning.

- Hi.
- What's going on?

Good morning.
Nothing, nothing.

Everything's great, honey.
Everything's just fine.

- Honey.
- We got it all under control.

- Max.
- All under control.

If your dad asked you
to take Otis out,

you need to take Otis out.
Max, Otis!

- You wanted this dog...
- What?

- Oh, geez.
- He's peeing on the floor.

- I cannot watch this right now.
- Outside, outside, outside.

- Honey.
- Oh, look at that.

And he's all done peeing.
Max, you gotta listen, okay?

We could just get him
a litter box or something.

No, no, no, no, no, no.
Honey, just...

I got everything, okay?
You're doing too much.

It's not a big deal.
I've got this

taken care of.
You're overdoing it.

The eggs are burning.
Look out.

I can't eat those now.
They're too burnt.

Adam, you don't need to do
all of this.

Listen, honey,
I got it under control.

- Okay.
- Dad, I also asked

for sunny-side up.

Eat.
Listen, I talked to my mom.

She said she can be here
at 9:00 A.M. tomorrow.

Okay?
No. Actually, you know what?

I talked to my mother,

and she may be
able to come now.

I just talked to her
on the phone.

So I think she's gonna probably
be able to come.

She's gonna really try hard,
so grandma might come.

She said she may be able
to be here.

Yes. Honey, she's got
a lot on her plate.

Until then,
my mother will be here.

It's not necessary.
I can handle this.

Honey, you just had surgery.
You're gonna have chemotherapy.

You need help.
I don't need help.

You're not supposed
to lift anything.

You're not even supposed to lift
Nora right now.

- You can't drive. Okay?
- Mmhmm.

Like it or not, you're gonna
need some backup, okay?

Look what I got for you here.

- What is that?
- This is pure health.

It's got kale and carrots
and calcium.

Powder protein,
powder everything.

The doctor said to put some
agave syrup in there

so that it's nice and sweet.
Whey protein's one of the most

disgusting things I've ever had.
Like I said,

we're in this together.

You're gonna have it,
I'm gonna have it.

Solidarity.

Ready? Down the hatch.

It's good.

- That is good.
- Mm-mmm.

Yeah.

One, two, three.
Panthers!

Hey, big guy.

- Hey.
- Good hustle out there.

- Thanks.
- Want some grapes?

Sure.

Way to run down
those grounders.

Yeah. Thanks.

Hey, what's...
what's going on over there?

I don't know.
I think they're just going

to Leo's house
or something like that.

I thought you were friends
with Leo.

I never said that.

Well, do you want me
to go talk to them?

I'm sure they
would love to have you.

No, it's... it's okay.

Victor, I'm sure if they
knew you were free...

Can we please go now?

Yeah.

Okay.

Okay, back seat, buddy.

- Am I winning?
- This...

You're... you're killing me
right now.

- Tell me I'm winning.
- And just for that reason,

I want you to maintain
your handicap.

Okay, I don't need charity.

By putting you super close.

I'm gonna bank it off
that wall over there.

- The bank. Okay.
- Mm-hmm. The old bank shot.

This is
a technical golfing term.

That's right.
I'm doing good.

Let me just get in the zone.
Hang on.

Amber, do not let
these eyes distract you.

All right, here we go.

Got to give it enough power.
Let's see it.

- Ooh!
- Oh, crap.

- Oh, my God. Are you okay?
- Yeah.

- Did I hit you?
- No.

I'm gonna give you a mulligan.

That's golf speak
for a do-over.

- A mulligan?
- A mulligan.

That's what they call it.
How do you know that?

What am I even doing?
Is this right?

Well, the grip is...

Just hold it... oh, gosh.

- Okay. Give me the thumbs.
- Okay.

Ease up the thumbs.

♪ I should have
built better walls ♪

♪ or slept in my clothes

♪ so if I see you again

Amber, I still think
that we should take it slow.

Okay.

hey.

I was just on my way
to Kristina's.

I thought you were
at the studio today.

Yeah.
No, I'm on my way.

I just wanted to stop by
and say thanks for doing this

and also just to check
to make sure you got my email.

Yeah, I got the email.

- Okay? Got the diet?
- Yes.

Low sugar, low caffeine,
high fiber.

- Yeah, I got it.
- Okay, 'cause that's...

She's got to stick
to that regimen,

and she's not always gonna
want to, so you gotta...

- I'm on it.
- Stay on her a little bit.

And she's not gonna want help,
but she needs help.

- I got... I got the email.
- Okay, all right.

And here are her keys.
She can't drive.

She's gonna try to drive.
Don't let her drive.

- And please use our van...
- Adam.

To go get the groceries
and take Nora with you

so she can get some rest.
What?

It's gonna be okay.

All right, I know.

I'm just freaking out, mom.
I love you.

- I love you too.
- Thank you. Okay.

All right. I'll see you.

Ah! Thanks.

Good morning.

Good morning.

What are those?

It's what two tours
in Afghanistan'll get you.

I completely forgot.
It's my mom.

Your mother?

- I'm hungry!
- Hang on!

Don't worry about it.
She's more than cool.

It's just I told her

I would have breakfast
with her this morning,

and I forgot.
You better be ready.

- Do you want me to leave?
- Oh, no, no, no, no, no.

- Should I... I should probably...
- No, no, no.

- It's fine.
- Okay.

I'm just gonna tell her

I'm gonna do it
a different day, okay?

I'll be back. Just stay here.

- Okay.
- I'm gonna use my key.

Hey, hang on, mom.

Hi.

And you have no pants on.

- Yes. I know. It's...
- Gonna be a problem.

Well, I-I can't go.
I can't go today.

I have been waiting all week
for pancakes.

I am sorry.

The line at Huck's
is getting long,

and I want pancakes.
Mom, I cannot go today. Okay?

Why are we whispering?

Just, I can't...

Because...

please be quiet.

- Stop.
- Who do you have in there?

Mom, nothing. Just stop.

If you're gonna cancel
breakfast,

you have to give me facts.

You robbed me
of my breakfast time.

I've been kind of,
like, seeing him.

- Really?
- Yes, it's different.

I really like this guy.

- Really?
- Yes, a lot, okay?

- So please.
- Who is it?

I can't talk about this now.
He's inside.

Talk about it.
You give me some facts.

Or I'm gonna come in.

Stop! Okay.
You met him.

- I did? Who?
- Yes, so be quiet.

That's enough.
Isn't that enough?

- Who?
- At a baseball game.

- The army guy?
- Shh!

- Grandpa's friend?
- Don't call him the army guy.

- Well, what's his name?
- His name is Ryan.

- Hey, grandpa likes him.
- I know. I really like him too.

Listen, you have to go.

- No, I'm excited.
- Please, just...

- Introduce me.
- No.

- Please get out here.
- Good-bye.

I love you.
Bye, Ryan!

Mom!

- Uh...
- That's my mom.

You stole my shirt so I...

Hey, Crosby.

Crosby!

Hey!

Hey.

- Hey.
- What the hell's going on?

I'm gone for a couple of days.
The place is a disaster area.

Good morning to you too.

What, is this a joke?
What happened?

The Dave ray trio happened.

Those jazz nerds,
they know how to party, man.

They turned into gremlins
last night.

- Where's Amber?
- Amber texted me.

She overslept.

I told her just
to show up at lunch.

And it's gonna be fine.

Oh, it's fine for her
to come in late in the day

and then just gonna sit here.

- It's fine.
- Crosby, that is unacceptable!

You can't let her skate by
'cause she's a family member.

- Okay. I'm sorry.
- You know what?

- I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
- I want you to come down here.

- You're right.
- And I want you to help me

clean this.
Look at that.

That's real nice, isn't it?

Tell you what.
You clean it up.

- I will clean it up.
- Okay, all right?

I will.

Leave it.
I'll get that too.

Camille, you don't have
to do all of that.

You can leave it.
Oh, that's okay.

I don't mind.
I mean, I'm here to help.

I know, but it's actually
Max's job.

Oh.

Hewe're on
a whole sticker system

so it sort of gives him
incentive to do...

- Of course.
- You know.

- Yeah.
- But thanks.

Okay.
So can I get you anything?

How about a big jug of wine?

Should hit the spot
right about now.

- Yeah, you wish.
- I know.

It's just sort of ironic
I can't have any alcohol

considering I'm about
to pump poison into my body

in the next couple of days.

You know, I have a friend

who recently went through chemo.
Oh, yeah? How are they doing?

- She's doing great.
- Really?

- 18 months now, cancer-free.
- That's great.

So but anyway, she said that

it's best not to think of it
as poison

but more like
a platoon of soldiers

that have entered
your blood stream to...

Fight the enemy...
- Disease.

I've read all the pamphlets.

I hate this.

The whole reason I got him
involved in baseball

was so he could make
some friends.

- I know.
- How could they not invite him?

He's new.
Kids have groups, cliques.

I'm sure he'll, you know,
invited soon.

You don't think
it's because he's...

- He's what?
- Be-because...

- because he's Latino?
- Yes, because...

I don't know,
because kids are weird.

And maybe... I just wish
one of their parents

would have thought
to invite him.

- What?
- Nothing.

Hey, bud.

Your mom and I were
just talking that you know,

you haven't had anybody over
to the house yet.

You think maybe you might
want to, you know,

have a buddy over
for a playdate or...

Playdate? Isn't that
for, like, for little kids?

- Oh, yeah. No.
- Oh, yeah, no. It is.

So not a playdate.
A hang-out.

- Hang-out.
- Yeah.

- Would you be into that?
- Sure.

- Great.
- Cool.

- Who should we invite?
- Maybe Miguel.

- Okay.
- I don't know Miguel.

Which one's...
Is he on the baseball team?

No, he used to live
in the apartment above mine.

Oh, you...

You mean in
the old neighborhood.

Yeah.
He's cool.

Yeah, well, we'll look into it.

Great.

Can we do that?

Well, these are job prospects
courtesy of the V.A.

Here you go.

Hey, you know what?

You could put in
an application in here.

Amber used to work here.
She liked it.

She'll put in
a good word for you.

You're really invested

in my employment situation,
I see.

Yeah, I mean, it's...

It's just great to have
somewhere to go

in the morning
or a reason to get up.

Just makes you feel better
about yourself.

Believe me, I know.

Okay, I'll...
I'll take a look.

Sprinkler technician,

Berlin-miro
landscape architecture.

Starting salary...

Wow, that's low.

Yeah, well, okay.
That's not a good one there.

But check out the other ones.

Uh, Norell family farms,
irrigation consultant

for mid-sized wheat farm.

Wheat.

Kid from Wyoming...

Must know something
about wheat.

Yeah, I do know
a little something

about planting wheat,
but not from Wyoming.

Yeah, where?

Well, one of my jobs
in Afghanistan

was to talk
to the local farmers there.

We'd offer them seeds,
fertilizer, better irrigation.

Try to gain their trust,
you know.

Win the hearts and minds.

And then, you know,
we wanted them eventually

to switch out their opium plants
for wheat crops.

Mmhmm.
How'd it work out?

It didn't always work out
so good.

What happened?

We met this one opium farmer
outside of Marjah,

and we worked on this guy
for a while.

And then finally he agreed
to plant the wheat.

A couple of weeks
after we helped him

switch out the poppy plants,

he was killed.

Uh, I guess they were sending

a message to the rest
of the farmers.

Oh.
That's tough.

We killed that guy, Zeek.

We didn't drop any bombs
or pull any trigger,

but we killed that guy.

I don't know where it is.

Try again up here.

Can I get something for you?

I was just looking for
the chamomile tea.

- It's up here.
- Oh.

- It probably...
- I moved it. I'm sorry.

You know, I figured
with your stitches,

you know, you wouldn't
be able to reach.

Thank you very much, Camille.

- That's great.
- Sure.

And I'll get the water.
Thank you.

Okay.

Is that sugar?

I don't have stevia here.
I don't usually use it.

Well, it's actually good
for you.

Stevia, it's a nutrient.

It's only one scoop.
Okay.

- Is that your door?
- You're right. That's my door.

- I'll get it.
- Okay-no, no, no.

I've got it.
I've got it.

- Oh, hi.
- Hi, we're the lessings,

Adam and Kristina's friend's.
Of course you are.

I remember you.
She knows who we are.

Camille, where is she?

Where's our girl?

Stop it, Phil.
He does this.

He's excited because
she's like family to us.

It's okay. Come in.
Kris?

Oh.
Hey.

- Hi.
- Thanks for that, Camille.

- Sure.
- Sorry to barge in like this.

We wanted to see
how you were doing.

I'm good.
I'm home.

Oh, and you brought a chicken.
We're here for you, Kristina.

Thank you very much.

This is... this is beautiful.

Thank you.

Let's see where I'm gonna put...

- Okay.
- Oh, you got a few.

Thank you. Yeah.

A lot of chicken.

- It's good.
- Thank you. Yeah.

You know.
Good to see you.

- Everything good?
- Yeah.

I'm glad to see
you're back together.

Oh, yeah, well,
we're in counseling, you know.

- Sex therapy.
- Can't have that...

- That's very important.
- It is.

So you know what, I actually...

It's her naptime, and I wish

I could stay and visit longer.

And thank you for...
Oh, I'll do that, kris.

- I'm gonna take her up.
- No, I've got her.

- Camille, I got it.
- Visit with your friends.

- Thank you.
- No, really, of course.

Okay.

You stay,
visit with your friends.

- Thank you.
- Say "bye-bye."

- Bye.
- Bye, honey.

How are you holding up?

I'm good. I'm good.

I mean, this as a surprise...

I'm sorry.

Oh, Suze.
It's okay.

I'm sorry. I told myself
I wasn't gonna do this.

- Aww, it's okay.
- I'm sorry.

Oh! I'm a...

A little sore.

- Oh, my God.
- It's okay.

- Oh, my... I'm sorry.
- It's okay.

- Just a-a gentle, gentle hug.
- Okay.

Be careful. Don't touch her.

Can I get you a tea
or something?

You guys want anything to eat?

- It's just not right.
- I would love a tea, actually.

Want some chicken?
Why don't you have a seat?

Okay?
Do you have English breakfast?

I just spoke
to the social worker.

And?

And she doesn't think
it's a good idea.

She thinks we should
keep working on

establishing him here.

Not open up old wounds.

Which is what we expected,
so no Miguel.

- No.
- What?

I think we should do it anyway.

I think that it would be
really good.

Honey, the social worker
said it's a bad idea.

She didn't say
we couldn't do it.

Are you "lawyering" me?

Is that what this is?

I'm Victor's mom-ing you.

And I think that my opinion
should weigh

as much as hers.

We should be helping Victor
establish new friendships.

That's what we
should be doing right now.

I know, but he needs
a friend right now.

He just needs a friend.

He's gonna make friends.
He just...

Babe, he was
really pretty heartbroken.

You should have seen it
when they left him out.

I'm telling you he needs this.

Okay.

Okay.

Good to see you.
Okay, Brian. Take care.

- Yeah.
- Dad.

Sarah. Good heavens.

- Hi, how are you?
- So Sarah Braverman.

- Give me a kiss.
- Mwah.

Hi, sweetheart.
What are you doing here?

Well, I wanted to see
where you work,

and also mark and I have
all these doubles of things

now that we moved in together.
Hey, wait a minute.

- Coffeemaker and stuff.
- Thank you, honey.

Sammy, Sammy, Sammy.
I want you to meet somebody.

This is my daughter,
Sarah Braverman.

Hi, nice to meet you.

Sammy was a pilot.
He got shot down.

Sarah, hi.

Well, we hear a ton
about you around here.

Young fiance and the kids.
That-yeah.

- She's pretty though, huh?
- Oh, yes.

- Hey, Zach.
- Nice to meet you.

Zach.
I want you to meet somebody.

Zach's a world war ii vet.

Well, hi, there, honey.

- Hi, there.
- Okay, that's good.

He's a ladies man.

And then... Henry!
Henry, look.

- This is my daughter, Sarah.
- Hi.

Your dad doesn't know crap
about the game of baseball.

- But he's cool.
- Hey, hey, hey.

Thanks, Henry.
That was really nice.

- Yeah.
- You're like the mayor.

- Yeah.
- That's so cool.

Hey, is Ryan here?

- No. Why?
- Oh. Hmm.

Well, he's, you know,
Amber's new flame.

Thought I'd check him out.

Amber's new flame?

Yeah, he and Amber
started dating after...

I guess they hit it off
at the baseball field.

He didn't tell you?
They've been seeing...

No, we just had lunch
together, Ryan...

He didn't say anything,
and we talked about Amber.

He didn't tell me.

Well, you're
an intimidating guy.

You like him though,
right, dad?

It's, uh...
Yeah, um...

let me show you my office,
honey. Come here.

Well, how exactly
is she driving you crazy?

She's a hovercraft.

She's in the kitchen.
She's moving everything around

in the house.
She's so frustrating to me.

Oh, by way,
the lessings stopped by today,

and they brought a chicken.
Another chicken.

They stayed for 2 1/2 hours.

She took Nora upstairs
while I had to sit downstairs

and entertain them.

I had to make Phil Lessing tea.

It's just so frustrating.
I don't know what to do.

I feel like a prisoner
in my own home.

Oh, sorry. Listen, I'll...
I'll talk to her.

I just... I don't
want you to do that, okay?

I mean, look.
She's fine, she's helpful.

She's trying to be there
for me. I just...

It's frustrating to me, honey,

because I don't like
being taken care of.

Okay?
I'm not used to it.

I want to take care of people.
And I feel just...

I just... I feel helpless
right now.

- You know?
- Oh, honey.

Just I wish...

What is it, hon?
Go ahead.

I want to be able
to pick up my baby.

I want to be able
to take her upstairs

and read her a book
at nap time.

I want to be able to not eat
this crappy food

that's making me feel yucky and
supposed to be healthy for me,

okay?
And I want my mom.

I want my own mom to consider me
important enough

to get on a plane
and come here to see me.

And I know I sound like
I'm complaining right now,

but I just sometimes wish
that things were back to normal.

And I wish that I could
just crawl up in a ball

and cry over it,
but I can't because...

Because your mother's here.

I'm really sorry.

- I'm sor...
- Krissy?

Um, I gotta go.
I'm fine.

I'm just having a moment.
I love you.

All right, love you too.
Bye.

- Hey.
- Hey.

You are alive.
Not dying.

I hadn't seen you at school,
so I just assumed

- you were sick and...
- Yeah, I'm fine.

I'm actually going in today,
so...

Oh, yeah?

Thank you for the basket,
by the way.

- Oh, yeah.
- That was really sweet.

I just kind of left it.

- But I'm glad you got it.
- Yeah.

You know, I should finish
getting ready.

Yeah, I just wanted to say
hey, and...

Who's there, Ames?

- It's just my friend, Drew.
- Oh, right.

You know,
I heard a lot about you.

Oh.

- This is Jake.
- Hey.

Ah, so senior year, huh?

Yeah.

Man, I wish I was still
a senior.

I mean, don't get me wrong.
I love college.

But senior year is
a special kind of awesome.

I envy you, dude.
Oh, wow. Thanks.

I'll just see you at school.
Okay.

Hey, you know, I just dropped
by to take Ames to school.

We can give you a ride
if you want.

It’s-it’s fine.

- I have my bike, so...
- You sure?

Yeah.
I'll see you there.

Okay.

I was thinking
it'd be a good idea

if I took Syd out so, you know,
Miguel and Victor

could have some time alone.

That sound like a good idea?

Yeah.
Yeah, definitely.

Oh, this is it.
This one.

Yeah, here we go.

Oh.

Hey, you must be Miguel.

I'm Joel.
It's good to meet you, buddy.

- There he is.
- Hey.

The radio's not working again?

Jiminy Christmas.
Twice in two days.

I think I saw less of you
when you lived here.

Well, I-I know
how much you miss me, so...

Well, I kind of miss Drew
a little more.

Thanks, dad.
Appreciate it.

Hey, there wasn't anything else
about Ryan and Amber

that you wanted to tell me,
was there?

I feel like something
was a little off.

No, well, I...

Yeah, he just didn't tell me
he was dating my granddaughter.

That kind of was screwed up.

Uhoh.

That's it, though?

Nothing else to worry about?

Damn it.
This isn't the right tool.

Ouch.

- What'd I do with that?
- Dad.

I don't know, Sarah.

I mean, the kid just got back
from Afghanistan.

You know, he's been in a war.
Got a lot of stuff going on.

That's normal.
I mean...

I was the same way
when I got back.

Just gonna take some time to get
some balance in his life.

Well, you know when you're
going through it,

it's usually the people you love

and the ones
that are closest to you

that get hurt the most.
That's...

He's a good kid, Sarah.

Ah.

Oh.

Gracias.

Yeah, I know, mom.
I understand.

Yeah, if Roy
has a kidney stone,

I mean, those can be
pretty painful.

So it's probably
not the best time

for you to be out of town.

Sure. I'll just...
I'll let you know.

All right.

I love you.

Is everything okay?

Yeah.
It's just bad timing.

You know, it turns out
my mom's not gonna be able to...

To get out here right now.

But she just wanted to say

thank you so much
for covering for her.

I'm sorry.

I know how much
you wanted her to come.

It's fine.

I mean, it's not a surprise.

She's been like this for as long
as I can remember.

You know.

I mean, I...

I wanted her to want
to be here.

You know what?
I'm actually...

I'd like to go get Max.

Oh, no, I was just
going to pick him up now.

It's fine.

Honestly, I've been cooped up

in this house for a week.

And I just... I'm... I'm
just wanting to get out.

And you think you're okay
to drive?

Camille, I'm completely fine.
Okay?

I'm able to pick up
my daughter,

I'm able to pick up my son
from school.

I can make my own tea.

I know how to take care
of everything.

Just... can I have the keys?

Of course.

- Hey.
- Hi.

Look, I'm really sorry
about earlier.

That was really awkward
for all of us.

Yeah, was that
your camp friend?

Um, well, we kind of met there.

Was he like a lifeguard
or something?

Isn't he, like, embarrassed?

He's like a college guy
dating some high school girl.

I mean, he looks like 30.
I don't understand.

Isn't it illegal also
on top of it?

- Wow. Really?
- It probably is illegal.

Drew, I'm sorry.

And I mean,
I know that this morning

was probably really hard
for you.

All right, whatever.

Don't give me that, all right?

Enough bad stuff
is happening to me.

I'm pretty much used to
it at this point, so...

Why? What do you mean?

Nothing. My mom decided
to move in with Mr. Cyr.

So you know,
now I live with him

in this two-bedroom apartment,

and we found out
my aunt has cancer.

- What?
- Yeah, my aunt Kristina.

She has cancer,
so it's serious.

And the basket that I gave you
was her cancer basket.

So you can thank her
for that one.

I gotta go.
Whatever.

- Surprise.
- You're driving.

Yup.

You're not supposed
to be driving.

- Dad said.
- I know.

- And you're eating ice cream.
- Mm-hmm.

Dad says you're not supposed
to do that either.

That's
an it's-it sandwich treat.

Here's how
this is gonna go down.

You did not see me
eat this ice cream cone.

And you did not see me driving.

- Are you listening?
- Yeah.

What happens here stays here.
Okay?

- So it's like in Vegas?
- Kind of.

And if dad asks,
grandma picked you up.

I did not pick you up.

You got it?

What do I get if I say that?

- Hey.
- Hi.

So, how'd it go?

Really, really well.

Yeah?

Yeah. It was kind
of amazing, actually.

He was so happy.

I mean, he was like
a different kid.

He was so engaged,
and he was having...

He was having a wonderful time.
It was really something.

What?

But I wish that we could
bring that out in him.

I wish that we could
make him that happy.

I really thought that
we were making progress...

We are, honey.

We are.

But it's not enough.

There's a whole world
inside him.

We're just not getting
in there.

And I want to see
that version of him.

All the time.

We will.

- Hey.
- Hey.

What are you still doing here?

Um, uh, Kristina
went to sleep early,

and mom and dad are watching
Max and Nora.

So I just wanted to catch up,
you know. You know what?

I have some questions here
for you

about these bookings
and expenses right here.

Can you take a look
at those for me?

- Adam.
- What?

Could you do me a favor

and just stand up for a second?

You need to look at these.

I will look at those tomorrow,

but you need to stand up
right now.

We need to go out to a bar
and get you a cocktail.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no.

That is the last thing
I need to do.

Have you looked
at yourself recently?

No, I have not.

You're a man
who's in desperate need

of a cocktail.
Let's go, now.

I'm on a no-alcohol diet.

I'm in solidarity with Kristina
right now.

Okay? So I'm not...
I'm not going out to a bar.

I promise you she will never
find out.

And all this stuff will be
waiting for you tomorrow.

- You can do it then. Okay?
- No.

I'll tell you what
I'm gonna do.

- What?
- One-time offer only.

I will pay.

It's that serious.

- Do I really look that bad?
- Yes.

I try to help out Kristina
by having mom come over,

and then she gets upset,
and I gotta go call mom.

And say, "listen, we want you
to stop moving stuff

around the cupboard."
Hey, my friend. Two beers.

Excuse me.

And you know, I can hear hurt
feelings on the phone.

She gets all quiet.
I'm just saying, "mom,

"we appreciate
what you're doing,

but we just don't want you
moving stuff around the house."

You know. It's all it's...

Excuse me. Could you please
stop bumping into me?

- It's crowded.
- Well, it's not that crowded.

- So why don't you relax?
- I'm not bumping into you.

- Jerk.
- Oh, I'm the jerk?

Okay, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Just try being a little more
considerate.

Go back to your oktoberfest
there with your beer Stein.

Let's go down here.

People are really
starting to piss me off.

Okay. Here we go.
Here's two stools.

Walk out of my house
the other day,

going to the car,
the neighbor comes up to me,

says, "Adam, I just want you
to remember

God only gives you
what you can handle."

What the hell is that?

Is that supposed to help me
watch my wife suffer?

She starts
chemotherapy tomorrow.

You should see these women
after they've been in chemo.

They look like ghosts.

Just, man, the thought
of Kristina having to...

Go through that is...

It's scary.

It's really scary, Cros.

Hey, buddy.

Hey.

What are you doing up?

Oh.

I couldn't sleep.

- You okay?
- Mm-hmm.

Is there anything you want
to talk about?

You should go back to sleep.

- Okay.
- Okay.

Hey.

I was just writing you
this number.

This is the main desk

'cause we can't have
our cell phones

in the treatment room,
so call us there.

I'm gonna put the car seat
in your car

in case you and Nora
want to go someplace.

Uh, good idea.

- Good morning.
- Hey.

Good morning. How are you?
Good.

How are you feeling?

I'm feeling ready to go.

Adam made pancakes
if you're hungry.

Oh, I ate. Thanks.
Maybe coffee later.

Yeah.
There's plenty of coffee.

Um, I brought you something.

Remember I told you about
my friend

who had just gone
through chemo?

She gave me this
to give to you.

Her aunt who had been through
the same thing

gave it to her.

So it's been passed
from person to person.

And you will be
the seventh person

to wear this during chemo.

I understand it gets
really cold.

And that's warm and cozy.
It's also...

It goes on and off real easy.

You know, just in case.

This is really thoughtful.
Thank you.

Kristina.

You know when Adam
first brought you home

to meet me,

I really didn't think
you were right for him.

Really?

I've never been so happy

to be so wrong about anyone.

Thanks.

And I know I'm not your mom.

I would never try
to replace her.

But I love you, Krissy.

I'm here for you.

I'd do anything for you.

Anything.

Thank you.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Sorry to just show up
like this.

I called your cell phone,
but you didn't answer.

Yeah.
Um, sorry.

Can I come in?

Um...

Sure, Amy.

Wow. So this
is where Mr. Cyr lives.

Yeah.

All of my friends would die
if they knew I was in here.

They're all in love with him.

Yup. Everyone.

Everybody loves him.

I-I just want to say I'm sorry

really quick about everything.

It's okay. I get it.

And Drew, if you need space,

just tell me.

I mean, I would really like
to be friends.

But if you don't, I understand.

And anyway, I just

well, I was just stopping by
'cause I wanted to tell you

that I'm really sorry
about your aunt.

Oh.
Yeah, thanks.

It's so horrible.

Is she gonna be okay?

I mean, I hope so.

We all hope so.

Um...

You know, it's like I...

like, I feel like
I should do something.

You know, like, you know,
I feel like

I want to help somehow.

But I don't know how to.

There's nothing for me to do,
you know.

And I just kind of feel guilty.

Drew.

Look, you're...
you're amazing, and...

You'll find a way.

It's just so upsetting,
you know.
