Parenthood (2010–2015): Season 6, Episode 1 - Vegas - full transcript

[Heart beating]

That's my baby?

- And that's its heartbeat?
- That's your baby, amber.

Good, strong heartbeat,
good size, shape.

Yeah, it looks good.

- Oh, god.
- You okay?

Yeah.

It's just overwhelming.

It's a normal reaction.

Your mom must be so excited.

Uh...



Actually, she doesn't know.

Oh, and the father?

Uh, he...
He doesn't either.

We're not together anymore,
so...

Amber, I have to ask...

Is this a pregnancy you want?

Uh...

I know this is hard, amber.

But I'm your doctor,
and I have to tell you

that if, for any reason,

this isn't a pregnancy
you want,

you need to act sooner
rather than later.

Okay.

Because it's getting close
to the time that it's safe



to start telling people.

Wow.

Sorry, could we listen
one more time?

Of course.

[Electronic beep]

[Heart beating]

[Inhales shakily]

Come on, one step at a time.

Come on.
Come on, you own this.

Come on.
You can do it.

Come on, come on.
Come on, aida!

Come on.
[Laughs]

Keep going.
Yeah!

Isn't she the best?
[Aida fussing]

- It's okay, honey.
- Come here.

- Oh.
- Oh.

♪ I'm so tired of being alone ♪

[Moans]

♪ These planetary walls
are all I've known ♪

- I have a 9:15.
- Oh, me too.

Well, mine's with a client,
so I cannot be late,

and I think I should
go in first.

I got you.

Why, you think it would be
scandalous

if you and I went to the office
at the same time?

I think they're lawyers,
and they're smart,

and they will figure it out.

I think we should
let them figure it out.

I should've never let you
go in law school.

Maybe I let you go
in law school.

Mm, no, that's not the way
I remember it.

- Really?
- No.

What's happening?
We just put this dress on.

What? No, we didn't.
You put this dress on.

It's my job to take it off.

[Mechanical squealing]
You hear that?

It's the sound of...
Sweet froth,

which I just learned
how to make.

- You know I hate cappuccino.
- No, no, not the way I make it.

Listen, what do you think
for ruby's bed there?

Let's see.
How old is she now, 14?

15.

Depressing sage
or happy polka dots, I'm torn.

- This is sage?
- It's depressing.

I'm gonna go
with the polka dots.

Yeah, the polka dots are nice.

I didn't think it was
that depressing.

It's gonna change your mind.

It's the drink of your people.

Well, I hate it less.
I hate it less.

- What is not to like?
- I mean, you did good.

It's me.
It's me.

It's okay; You don't have
to like cappuccino.

I love it.
Why don't you just stay?

'Cause this is getting me
nervous.

If you were here,
it would be a lot easier.

She loves you.
Right.

Well, that's why I'm leaving,

'cause I think you could use
some nice father-daughter time.

I gotta go to vegas and do this.
What?

You don't know
what you're doing.

Yes, I do.
I'm doing that.

Anyway, she really liked me
when I was your assistant.

I don't know how
ruby's gonna feel about,

you know,
me as dad's girlfriend.

I think she'll be excited
about that.

- She will be excited?
- Yeah.

Why haven't you told her?

You told sandy, right?

I mean, not directly.

- Sandy doesn't know?
- Not yet.

Sandy's moving back to town
with your daughter,

and she doesn't know
what the situation is?

No, not yet.

I'm gonna tell her.
Okay.

But I'm gonna wait
till she's...

yeah, wait
till it's good for her.

She's intense.
She's a very intense woman.

You can't let her dictate
this kind of stuff, you know.

There's nothing wrong with it.
She's not... nobody...

you have a nice girlfriend
who makes you nice cappuccino.

Why don't you just tell her?
Nobody dictates to me.

You know that.
Oh, no?

Yeah. No.
I'm gonna go.

Is that all right?

See what I did?
You have permission.

All right.

Joe, we are opening our doors
in two days.

- We're doing the best we can.
- I get that, but, I mean,

you promised us
that the work would be done.

And there is no way
that this is near done.

- I think it looks terrific.
- It looks terrific?

Have you thought about having
guys work in shifts,

maybe get a crew
working at night?

- Yeah.
- That is a great idea.

It's not that easy
to get guys to work nights.

Plus, they expect
time and a half.

I told you guys
this was gonna be a tight one.

I am not following
what you're saying here.

You guaranteed us
that you would be ready.

I'm telling you, you know,
I'm doing what I can.

When the pope asked michelangelo

when the sistine chapel would be
done, he said, "when I can."

You are not michelangelo.
Joe, hi.

We have 39 kids
walking through the door...

- 38 kids.
- 39.

No, I'm not attending
chambers academy.

Very funny, max.
You're going to chambers.

We built this school for you.

No, I'm sticking
with homeschool.

It's a great school.

We're not homeschooling.
Where are the nails?

Do you know where the nails are?
You're coming to school here.

- Give me the hammer.
- Don't give him nails.

- Max.
- I'm taking it.

- This is for you.
- We need to get this done.

You built an entire school
for your kid,

and now he's not even
going to it.

That's harsh.
It's none of your bus...

he's coming to school here.

My almond milk latte.
Thank you.

Thank you.
Bring it on over.

I'm gonna get the hammer.

Max.

Zeek.

- Huh?
- Look.

Is this trite?

No, no.
It looks great, millie.

Yeah, I like it.

- You'd say that.
- Excuse me.

You live in the city now.

You have to lock your door.

Any old person
could just come walking in.

Hey, what are you doing?

Millie, look.
It's sarah bear.

- Yeah, I know, I see.
- Hi, mom.

What are you doing, dad?

Your father's
growing cucumbers.

Yeah, that's kind of
what I'm doing.

I got some cucumbers growing.

Gonna be pickling pretty soon.

You know,
you can get those at the store.

Huh?

Well, I guess you're too busy
to come with me

on a surprise birthday trip
to vegas then.

I'm sorry, vegas is gonna
have to wait, honey.

Okay.

Oh, hold it.

Are you serious?
Yes, I'm serious.

Are you serious?

- Really?
- Yes.

Oh, man.

Hey, millie, what do you think?

Your bag is already packed.

Happy birthday, zeek.
Hey!

Well, we're going to vegas.
Whoo!

We're going to vegas.

Okay!
This is great.

Whoo!

- Isn't it spectacular, max?
- Max, you gotta check this out.

Your mom has a great idea.
Oh, come on, man.

You can carry more than
three chairs at a time.

- Lots of open light and air.
- The reason there's open space

is because you haven't
built any walls.

- Boom, here it is.
- Okay, we're gonna house

some of your student photos
and students' artwork.

We're gonna paint the wall.

Yeah, you can paint
that any color you want.

Battleship gray, fatigue green.

You can do a blue
if you want to do a blue.

- I see what you're doing here.
- What are we doing?

You're trying to get me
excited about this school

by letting me pick the color
of this wall.

But it's not going to work,

because I don't care about
the color of this wall,

nor do I care about
color in general.

Okay, max, listen to me,
it's not just about the wall.

We want you to be excited to go,

because this isn't gonna be
like your old school.

None of that stuff that happened
there is gonna happen here.

I like homeschooling.
I get my work done faster,

and I don't have to worry about
the other kids slowing me down.

You don't have to worry
about the other kids here,

except that they're gonna
want to be your friends.

I don't need friends.
I have hank.

Okay, you have hank, honey.
But you need other kids.

You need friends
that are your age, okay?

- No, I don't.
- Yes, you do.

I'm going to homeschool
and working at hank's studio

in the afternoons.
I've decided.

- Max, we have to...
- Can I go have a slice of...

after we're done
talking about this.

Okay, we're gonna talk
about this more later.

I don't look forward to that.

- All right.
- Where's the banana bread?

[Knock at door]

I ask you a question,
I expect a response.

Whatever.
I responded.

I don't think
that a shrug is a response.

- It sort of is.
- But it's not.

- Hey, ruby.
- Hi.

- Hey.
- Bye.

Excuse me, I will leave
when I feel like leaving.

- Ruby, hey.
- Hey.

What's going on?
Anybody... who's thirsty?

You want something to drink?
I got...

you know, I got the lemonade,
the fizzy kind that you love.

You love that.

Like, eight years ago.

True.
Yeah, that was a while ago.

So if you don't want that,
we'll get something else then.

No, no, no, no, no.
Don't let her do that.

Your dad bought you the lemonade
fizzy stuff that you like.

You suck it up,
and you drink it.

- I'm not gonna drink it.
- She doesn't have to drink it.

- No, she can drink it.
- It's gross.

I'll drink it;
I kind of like it.

But forget about it.

What do you think of this,
though?

It's nice.

Where do I put my crap?

You can... I got a bedroom
right there.

You can put all your crap
in there.

Everything's all set up.

You're welcome.

- Wow, huh?
- Sweet.

It's, you know...

she's a joy.

Well, that's teenagers, right?

Yeah.

Not bad, right?

You have a cappuccino machine.

Yeah, that's correct.

You hate cappuccino.

No, that's not true.

I think I had a bad batch
that one time you tried.

Yeah.
For three years.

You know, I don't want to
hate anything anyway, it's...

but anyway, you look good.
Thank you. Thank you.

I feel like a freaking mess.

- Well.
- I should go, actually.

I have a ton of stuff to do.

I'm gonna look at a rental,

because right now we are living
out of a hotel room,

which I cannot afford.

Yeah, I know.

Listen, anything you
want me to do?

You want me to help you
in any way, just let me know.

Thank you.

I appreciate it.
That's all right.

Oh, my god, gross.

Whose underwear are these?

Okay, listen, where were they?

- They were in the drawer.
- Well, I don't know.

Why are you looking
in the drawer?

I thought it was my room.

It's your room.
It's not your drawer.

I'm gonna...
I'm gonna go.

Okay, I'll call you.
We'll talk.

- We should talk.
- It's gonna be great.

- Thank you.
- I'm exhausted.

I'll be in my room.
All right.

Do you want any lunch?

I got lunch.

I'll wrap it up.

France, wow.

That's awesome.
We should do a semester abroad.

- Yeah, we should.
- It would be a blast.

I could try.

You should.

Amber, have you been to europe?

Nope.
Never have.

You should go.
It's gonna be really cool.

The only thing is, like,
lauren's gonna be in prague,

so I have to take a train
to see her,

and I honestly don't feel like
I'll do that very often,

because it's too much money.

- Yeah, not a train to prague.
- You guys will figure it out.

It's just a train ride.

I just don't have any money.

- That's just terrible.
- I know.

It sounds like a fairy tale.

I know, I'm just stressed.
I just hope we see each other.

No, that's understandable,
that sounds rough.

Sorry, I don't have the energy
to be complaining about europe,

so I'm gonna get water.

Wait, amber.

Are you serious?

I was talking about it
for, like, one second.

I don't know.

That's very weird.

- It feels like it's okay.
- I got it.

Okay, good.

- All right.
- All right.

Okay, pretty good.

I think it needs to come up
on the left a little bit.

- Hey.
- Oh, shoot.

Hi, guys.
Joel.

- Camille.
- Painting reinforcements.

- Good to see you.
- You too. You look amazing.

You guys need smocks
or something,

and then you can get to work.

- Hey.
- Hey.

So thursday.

Yeah, I guess I'll see you
thursday for pick-up.

- Okay, cool.
- All right.

- Bye, dad.
- Love you.

- Love you.
- See you.

Hey, holy joel-skis.
How are you?

- Hey. Hey!
- Hi.

How you doing?
Great. How are you?

- Haven't seen you in forever.
- Yeah.

- You look awesome.
- Well, thanks. Thank you.

Wow, you're looking great.

Hi, guys.
The kids are upstairs,

if you want to
start painting with them.

That would be awesome.
Oh, they're pumped.

Thank you, guys,
for doing this.

I appreciate it.

- So two days out, huh?
- Thanks.

How you feel?

Feeling good.

Not really.
I am scared,

and we have a lot to do.
Oh.

So it's gonna... yeah.

- Okay.
- We're okay.

We're...
Yeah? Are you?

Hey, you could be the answer
to our plumbing problems.

Probably, or a lot of problems.

Just wondering
if you could maybe stay,

and maybe you could... I was
gonna order lunch for everybody

if you wanted to hang out with...

you need some help?

Yeah, I'd be happy to.

I need a lot of help.
Yeah.

- Yeah.
- That would be amazing.

It's... the plumbing,
particularly,

is in pretty bad shape.

It's really bad.
It's really bad, so...

I got some tools in the truck.
I'll be right back.

- Really?
- Yeah.

That would be wonderful.
If you have any men...

[Laughter]
Well, not in the truck.

But I'll make a few calls.
That's awesome.

Sure.

All right,
I'm gonna go check on the kids.

Thank you, guys.

I mean,
I'm happy if you're happy,

but I miss the house,
don't you?

- No, not really.
- No?

You don't miss
working on your cars

in the garage and stuff?
No.

- No?
- A little bit.

- A little bit?
- Mm-hmm.

I just never thought... oh.

Hit me, please.
Excuse me, honey.

Can we stop chatting?
I need to...

I'm not chatting, dad.
I'm bonding.

- Well, I can't talk right now.
- Why?

Are you counting cards, dad?

Ben affleck got in
a lot of trouble for that.

- Would you like to hit, sir?
- Dad, do you want another card?

Dad?
Are you... dad!

I can't tell you that yet, mom.

We're at the hospital right now,

and the doctor's gonna
see him right away.

And I'll let you know.
Don't let her worry, honey.

Dad says don't worry.
No, he's awake.

Millie, I just stood up
too fast, that's all.

He stood up too fast.
Put that back on.

Colonel mustard
in the library with a knife.

Oh.

So very interesting.

- What did he show you?
- I'm not going to tell you.

But I'll get revenge on you.

- Not if I get it first.
- Oh, will you?

No, you won't.
[Cell phone rings]

No, don't get that.

Let me just check it
really quickly.

Mom!
Don't hold up the game, mom.

- It's grandma.
- Oh, that's gonna take forever.

[Doorbell rings]

I have to answer it.
Can you get the door?

- Yeah, I got the door.
- Thank you, victor.

No, I'll make it quick.

Hi, mom.
I'm good.

I am in the middle of
a very heated game of clue,

so why don't I call you in...

left something at our place.

What?

- Hey.
- Hi.

What... what do you me...
what do you mean?

Okay, wait, okay, so where...
what do you mean?

Is... where is he right now?

Is he okay?

Okay.

Okay, okay.

Mom, it's okay.

Just... well, call me
if you hear anything.

I'm gonna call sarah right now,
okay?

Come on, mom.

All right, I'm gonna
call her right now.

It's your turn.

Okay, okay, I'm coming.

Everything okay?

- My dad collapsed.
- What?

- I don't...
- Is he...

I don't know.

Sarah took him to vegas
for his birthday and then...

I don't know if
it's a heart attack or what.

- You need to go?
- So...

- You need to go.
- Yeah. I... yeah.

My mom's really upset.

I should...
Yeah.

- Okay.
- Go.

- Okay.
- Okay.

Hey, your mom has to step out
for a little bit,

so I am gonna make you guys
some dinner tonight.

- Can you make tacos?
- Here?

Yes.

Okay.
The bad news is,

I happen to be the world's
greatest clue player.

- No, you're not.
- So that's the bad news.

That's why I beat you, like,
the last....

- Okay, back off. Back off.
- Dad.

- Sir...
- No, really.

When you fell,
did you pass out?

No, I don't know.
I mean...

Hey, when am I gonna get
a chance to see a doctor here?

I'm the on-call doctor, sir.

- What are you, like, 14?
- Dad.

No, I'm not 14.

So don't worry.

Were you there when he fell?

- Yeah.
- She was there.

Could you tell
if he lost consciousness?

Yeah, I don't think so,
right, dad?

I think he just kind of
got a little disoriented.

- Got a little dizzy.
- But...

I stood up too fast,
that's all.

Okay, what did you feel
before you passed out?

I felt like I had a great hand.

Dad, that's not
what he's asking.

I mean, like, physically.

Did you have
any chest discomfort?

Not sure, really.

Dad.
He has a heart condition.

He takes pills.
What are you...

tell him what the pills are.
What are the pills?

Got nothing to do with this.

No, no,
I'll need the specifics of that.

Did you have any visual changes,
headaches?

Oh, my god,
I got a little warm, all right?

Okay.
Had you been drinking?

Well, hell yeah,
I'd been drinking.

This is vegas, for pete's sake.

Jeez, it's no big deal, honest.

It was just
a little dizzy spell.

- Okay.
- What are you doing?

I'm glad you're feeling
better, mr. Braverman.

We're just gonna
take a few tests,

try to get to the bottom
of what happened, okay?

I'll be back.
Thank you.

Give me a 12 lead,

325 milligrams of aspirin,
and an echo.

Okay.
Will do, doctor.

Oh, just one second.

Excuse me, sorry.

So did he have a heart attack?

I don't know.

We'll find out, though.
Hey, hey, hey.

I can hear you over here.

- Dad.
- He's in good hands.

Thank you.

They don't know anything yet.

They're still doing tests.

Adam, could you please
talk to the doctor yourself?

I mean, I know sarah's there.

But you're always so great
in a crisis.

Sweetie.
Hi.

You didn't have to
come over here.

Julia's here.

Okay, you'll call me,
though, right,

as soon as you talk to her?
Okay, great.

Love you too.
Bye.

Can't believe
this is happening.

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

- Yeah?
- He's in a good hospital.

- Oh, good.
- A very good hospital.

And he never lost consciousness,
so that's good.

And sarah's there, so...
That's good?

- You want something to drink?
- No, I'm fine.

So...
So what are you doing here?

Where are the kids?
I just came for you.

I mean, joel was over.

He came over right
when you called,

so he's with the kids.

Joel.
It was so good to see him.

He looks great.

You mentioned that
more than once.

And kristina told me
that he was up

practically half the night
at the school,

fixing the plumbing.

Yeah, I heard that too.

Yeah, so you two are talking.

No, not really.

So what hospital is he at?

- Sunrise.
- Okay, sunrise.

But I saw the way
he looked at you, you know.

And I got the sense that he may
finally be coming around.

Well, he may have
waited too long.

Oh, come on.
Meaning what?

Meaning I waited for him
for a very long time,

and I had to stop waiting,
and I'm trying to live my life.

Hey, I know headstrong men,
right?

I know it can be
very frustrating.

But when you have someone
like joel, you know,

you don't give up on him.

Okay, how about I
take care of you?

Which is what I'm here to do.

You have a seat.
I'm okay!

Let me get you
something to drink.

What do you want to drink?

You don't want this, do you?
I'm okay.

What do you want?

It's okay?
Pasta hot enough?

Yep.

Moving back, right?

- Looks like it.
- Yeah.

Full circle.

How's things?

Life?

Life?

I don't know, fine.

- Yeah?
- Mm-hmm.

School?
How... how's school?

- You know.
- How about your friends?

That must've been hard,
leaving them in minnesota.

It's fine.

Just fine?
That's it?

Pretty much.

Yeah.

Your initial work-up looks
negative for a heart attack.

- Thank you. See?
- Oh, yeah, huh?

Do I know my body or what?
Good job, dad.

I told you.
[Chuckles]

Okay, honey, we're out of here.

Oh, no, sir.
Not yet, sir.

I'm not discharging you.
You're not?

No, your electrocardiogram
results were fine.

But we're waiting on the results
of your echo.

Oh, no,
you don't understand, doctor.

I told you,
I had a few too many martinis,

and I got up too fast.
Listen to him, dad.

How long would that take?

Well, just to be sure,

I want our attending
cardiologist

to see you tomorrow.

He might recommend
further tests,

possibly a coronary
catheterization.

- Huh?
- What's that?

A liquid dye is injected

into the arteries of
your heart through a catheter.

We usually go in through the leg
or the groin.

You're not going anywhere
near my groin.

- It's a possibility.
- No, you're not doing it.

I'll be right back.

Hi, it's not a good time.
I want to talk to the doctor.

Mom wants me to talk
to the doctor.

It's fine, it's fine,
it's fine.

Tell mom to relax, okay?
I'm handling it.

Nobody's saying
you're not handling it, sarah.

Tell him they're gonna
try to get into my groin, okay?

- Sarah, is that dad?
- I want to get out of here.

Of course, he's dad.
He's being dad.

No, you got to make sure that
he listens to those doctors.

- I've got to go. Bye.
- Or I'll rip it out myself.

Dad, please.

If you sign out
against our recommendation,

you'll have to sign an ama form

that says
you're refusing treatment

and take responsibility
for any repercussions.

- Dad, come on.
- No.

There is nothing to talk about.

You go get the form.

Here's the way
it's gonna work, all right?

I'm gonna leave here.

And then eventually,
I will see my doctor.

But right now,
I am gonna spend my birthday

with my daughter in vegas.
Just calm down.

And we're having a great time.

Do you think I'm gonna
spend my time here

in this rinky-dink hospital...
Dad, dad, lower your voice.

With a doctor
that's barely 18 years old?

- Dad, stop.
- You're crazy.

- I'm sorry.
- Go get the form,

or I'm gonna rip this
out of my arm myself.

Okay, all right, okay.
Maybe get the form.

- I'll have the nurse write...
- Thank you.

Dad.

Now it's going
straight to voice mail.

Ringing or just going
straight to voice...

- straight to voice mail.
- So she turned her phone off.

- It's not ringing, yeah.
- She's avoiding you.

Can you believe
that sarah hung up on me?

Yes, I absolutely can believe
that sarah hung up on you.

She orchestrated a trip
to vegas...

I don't have any access
to our father.

You don't talk to me,
mr. Vegas?

This is what you're gonna
focus on?

Our father's
having a medical emergency

with my least-qualified
sibling...

my second least-qualified
sibling.

Oh.

And I don't even know
what hospital he's in.

Sunrise.

How would you know
he's at sunrise?

I've had a few different
medical emergencies

while on trips to vegas.
Yeah? Like what?

I had bad,
bad food poisoning once.

And then I had some body glitter
caught in my eye.

Las vegas, please.

And then I had a weird rash
from someone's perfume.

Sunrise hospital.
A rash from whose perfume?

- A performer's perfume.
- You know what, this is dumb.

Dad collapsed, he's in vegas.
Let's go.

We're gonna find him.
Yes, let's go!

Stopping at the atm.
Let's get the hell over there.

- No, we're not gambling.
- Yeah.

What are we doing?

Watching paint dry.

I don't like metaphors.

It's not really
a metaphor, max.

We are literally watching
paint dry.

Hey, bud?

I know what happened last year
was so incredibly painful...

- they peed in my canteen.
- I know.

And it was so awful.

It was.

And you know, that's part
of the reason why

your dad and I dreamt of
creating a school like this...

So that every kid could
come to school and fit in,

not be afraid.

Never be bullied.
Ever.

And we don't want this school
just to be,

you know, an okay place.

We want it to be a place where
everybody can just be happy.

We want it to be wonderful.

But we're gonna need your help.

You should've asked me first.

I'm not gonna be
attending chambers academy.

[Sighs]

I like watching paint dry.

[Knock at door]

- Hey, can I come in?
- Hey.

What's up?

I am kind of upset with you,
and I wasn't gonna say anything,

but I don't want to be
passive-aggressive.

And I just feel like
you're treating me

like I'm some girl that you
don't even really know

and can't make time for.
And it's, like,

I love you,
and I want to hang out with you,

and you're really
hurting my feelings.

[Sighs]

I'm pregnant.

Oh, my god.
Oh, my god.

Amber.

What?

Is this good or bad?

You tell me.

Okay.

Who else knows?

Just you.

Are you kidding me?

Oh, my god.

Okay, let's... you're not doing
anything right now, are you?

No.

Okay, I'm just gonna stay here.

Do you have, like,
wine or, like...

okay, you can drink,
like, tea, right?

That's, like, a calming thing
that people do.

So, um...

Do you want boy or girl tea?

[Laughs]

[Knocking at door]
Sarah. Sarah.

You've got to be kidding me
that the two of you are here.

I told you
I could handle this myself.

- Where's dad?
- He's in his room, asleep.

He's not in his room.
He better not be in his room.

If he's there
then there's trouble.

We were just knocking
on his door.

Are you sure
you had the right room?

- Look, right here?
- You're sure he's in here?

Well, he promised me he would
tell me if he went anywhere.

I don't know
where else he would be.

- Dad.
- Okay, we already did this.

We gotta get in this room.
Dad.

All right, hold on a second.
Hey, excuse me.

We're worried our father
might be inside and unconscious.

Could you open the door
for us, please? Thank you.

Maybe he's taking a nap
with earplugs in.

Yeah, maybe he has earplugs in.

We're not criminals,
we promise.

- Thank you. Dad?
- Thank you very much.

- Hey.
- Is he in there? No?

- He's not even...
- Okay, I'm gonna get my...

sarah, what the hell?

What do you mean,
what the hell?

I don't know, do you guys
think we should split up

or just keep on looking?

Well, look for cigar smoke
and listen for swearing.

I told him to
stay in his room, I swear.

All right, well,
we'll check with hotel security.

They can check all the hospitals
and precincts.

You're not gonna have to
check anywhere.

Look at this, 12:00.

- Hey.
- Hey, dad.

- Oh, look who's here.
- Dad.

What the hell are you doing?

Oh, it's part of
my birthday surprise.

This is not
a birthday surprise.

We're on a rescue mission here.

You told me
you were staying in your room.

You checked yourself
out of a hospital

against doctor's orders?

Honey, I didn't want to
wake you.

I mean, come on, jeez.

Dad, you scared us
half to death.

Can we stay
a little positive here?

When do we get a chance
to be in vegas together?

We're not in vegas together.
Let's get out of here.

No, we're not getting
out of here.

I'm gonna be splitting
those eights, here we go.

- No. No, no, no, no.
- Stop that.

- No more gambling.
- Stop that. I'm splitting.

Don't bet, dad.
Come on.

Crosby, what do you do
with eights?

You got to split eight.

Hank always says you do
have to split eights.

- Oh! Oh! Okay.
- You're getting paid.

Let her pay you,
let her pay you.

- Oh, pay, pay, pay, pay, pay.
- Don't touch it.

What the hell
is wrong with you, adam?

We got to get him out of here.

And by the way,
thanks for ratting me out.

Oh, thank you.

You told me you were
gonna stay in your room.

I just care about you. Sorry.

I'm gonna take you back to
the hospital to sort this out.

You basically had
a heart attack.

I did not have a heart attack.

I had an event.

And the event is over,
all right?

Not gonna happen.

I'm not going back
to the hospital.

I'm gonna tell you right now.

I happen to be
in a major heater.

I'm up 2,500 bucks.
Now you guys got a choice.

You can go back to berkeley,
or you can stay.

And I'll tell you what,
I'll bankroll you, 500 apiece.

You can have a good time,

as long as you don't mention
my heart anymore.

All right?
Dad.

So it's my birthday.

Let's have a little fun.
Enjoy it.

- Dad!
- We've got christina.

We've got a hot table.
Let's go.

Dad...

I would like to play craps
if we're gonna stay.

After a few hands, can we move
to a different game?

That's why I love you, son.
Sit down.

Okay, then I guess I'm in.
Ten, ten, ten.

- That's a lot.
- Look at this, look at this.

Just, like, one hand?

He seems fine.

Let's just play one hand.
He looks fine.

You look fine, right, dad?
You feel fine?

Yeah, honey, I'm doing great.

This family is sick.
Sick.

23!
[All cheering]

There's a break!
First hand out.

[Announcer commentating on tv]

Across the 45 to 50.

All right,
I could make that tackle, guys.

Somebody make a tackle.
[Knock at door]

Hank, it's sandy.

Oh, it's open, I think.
Come in.

- Hey.
- Hey.

What's up?

- How'd it go?
- It went good.

We spent the day
in the apartment.

You know,
she's taking a break right now.

We need to talk.

All right, look,
about the underwear...

I didn't tell you about sarah.

She's more than
just my assistant.

We're dating.

Listen, I don't give a crap,
hank.

Just keep her stupid underwear
out of my sight.

She's not living here, is she?
No, no, no.

Okay, good.
That's good.

Yeah.

I don't know what to do.

I don't know
what to do with ruby.

It's not working,
the two of us.

And she just... she pushes my
buttons like nobody's business.

And I just... I can't handle her
half the time.

I know, I know.
She's frustrating.

She can be frustrating.
The truth is,

I didn't just get transferred
to san francisco.

I asked to be transferred here.

Why would you do that?

She got into a bad group
in minnesota,

and I'm worried about her.

I need you to help me.

I need us to do this together,

and I need it to be 50/50.

I want to.
I always wanted to do 50/50.

Okay, that's why I'm here.

- I mean, yeah.
- Okay?

I'm up for that.
Hey.

What are you doing here?

Where am I staying tonight?
You're staying here tonight.

Don't worry.
Nothing... nothing's changed.

No, we're gonna have fun.

We're gonna go
to alcatraz tomorrow.

- Okay.
- So, yeah.

So say good night to mom.
Good night.

Well, no.
Give her a hug.

- No, no, no, no. It's okay.
- God.

Well,
she should give you a hug.

- I'll be in my room.
- All right.

Oh, and by the way,
the window doesn't even open.

It's like a freaking prison.

All right, that's not a...
you'll see a prison tomorrow,

and you'll know the difference.

It opens.

It's gonna be okay.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I couldn't help it.
It was, like, so funny.

We hated the teacher.

And lauren...
that's how we bonded.

Like, she thought
that the teacher sucked too.

It ended up being, like,

the highlight of my semester
that I had a terrible teacher.

But, like,
how did you make the transition

from just being friends?

Like, what...
how did that go?

I mean, did you
make the first move?

- Amber.
- What?

I want to know.
You don't have to tell me.

No, you're being so nice to me.

Please.

Like, I'm being selfish
and boring.

Don't be crazy, okay?

It's, like...
I want to hear about you.

I miss you.

Plus, it's, like,
a nice distraction

from all the crazy,
stressful stuff I have going on.

Okay.

But did you always like girls,

or do you still like guys?

Or, like,
how does that work for you?

I don't know.

I wish
that I could, like, explain it.

Like, when I was with alex,
like, I loved him.

I didn't feel like
I was faking it

or like I was
missing something.

It was just different.

Like, I even liked steve.

Oh, my god, steve.

Oh, my god.

Our fight,
right here on this field.

Oh, my...
I'm gonna get my revenge!

- Hey, I'm with child.
- Oh, my god.

Be gentle.

- I'm really sorry.
- It's a good excuse.

- To think about...
- Now we're, like, old.

We're real-life grownups, dude.
Oh.

I'm gonna have a baby.

Cheers.

Amber, I get, like,

that this is really hard
to talk to anybody about,

and I get it.

Like, moms are
the worst sometimes.

They seem like it.

But I think you're gonna feel
a lot better

if you talk to her.

You know?

I think you're probably right,

for once in your life.

I was right about steven.
[Laughter]

- Hey.
- Hey.

We don't know anything.

Adam and crosby
are in vegas now.

They're not answering
their phones.

I don't know.

There's nothing to do,
so mom just went to bed.

- Okay.
- Thanks for all of this.

The kids were okay?

Oh, great, yeah.

Okay, well, I'll call you
when I hear anything.

Oh, no, I'm not...
I'm not going.

I mean,
not until we know zeek's okay.

Okay.

You may need to go to vegas
or something.

I'm happy to stay
with the kids.

[Cell phone chimes]

Yeah, I guess I might.

What?

I guess he's okay.

I guess so.

He's okay.
I'm gonna kill him.

[Chuckles and cries]

I didn't really realize
I was so upset.

Sorry.

Just...
we shouldn't...

no, I know.
I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

I'm gonna go.

[Door opens and closes]

Oh, hey.

Jeez, you scared the...
scared the life out of me.

Yeah, I'm sorry.
I am.

It was nothing, really,
just, you know.

Well, you're seeing
dr. Gordon this afternoon.

Uh, well,
I'm kind of tired, millie.

I think I'm gonna lay down,
get a little sleep, you know?

Just got off the plane.

Well, I made the appointment,
so we're going.

Mm, no, we're talking
about eric gainor here.

Yeah, he's a killer.

He's not gonna fall for that.

Uh, okay, perfect.

I have some ideas too.

Yeah, let's just...

let's reevaluate everything
at our 3:00, and, um...

Bapbap-bap.

You know what, I'm gonna
call you right back, okay?

Okay, good.
Thank...

ooh, you were so close.

Morning, mr. Jeffries.

Good morning, miss braverman.

Miss braverman,
we need to have a talk.

I have to tell you...

no one's gonna
come through that door.

- Okay.
- I promise.

Mmhmm.

I cannot stop
thinking about you.

- Really?
- Really.

I really like you.

I really want
to make a go of this.

Oh.

- Yeah.
- Okay.

Okay as in yes, okay?

[Gentle music]

- Okay.
- Okay.

- Okay.
- Okay.

[Chuckles]

♪ [Vocalizing] ♪

- You better call him back.
- Mm-hmm.

Oh, max, wait until you see
this beautiful sandwich.

I have outdone myself.

And I forgot to tell you,

you don't have to worry
about grandpa.

He's gonna be fine.
Okay.

Max, this sandwich,
I'm telling you.

Ham and cheese, no lettuce,
no mayo, no mustard.

Cut off the crusts,
sliced it diagonally,

just how you like it, sir.

I won't be needing a bag lunch,

because I won't be eating lunch
at that school.

Max, this is the first day
of chambers academy.

I know.
Good luck.

Buddy.

Yeah, I know.
Mom already told me.

It's going to be
a wonderful school,

and I will need
to give it a try.

Okay, well, that's not
exactly what I was gonna say.

I just wanted to remind you

that your mother worked her butt
off these last eight months

making this school happen,
and she had to go through a lot.

She had to meet
with the district.

She had to go
the mayor's office.

Bob little is a jerk.

He is, and you know what,

your mother convinced that jerk
to make this school happen.

She recruited 39 students.

- 38 students.
- 39.

38 students... I'm not a student
at chambers academy.

[Sighs] All right, max, listen.

Your mom spent
every ounce of her energy

when she wasn't taking care
of you or your sister,

making this dream happen
for you and other kids like you.

Do you get that?

This school isn't for me.

Put your shoes on.

Pack your book bag.

You're going to school today.

Not for you, for your mother.

Alcatraz.

I think that's a good outing.
Yeah.

I mean, I don't think
she hated it.

I don't know,
she might have hated it, but...

hard to tell, right?

Look, nobody died, so it was...

- nobody died?
- Yeah.

[Laughs]

Good job.
You're a good dad.

Not really, no, but I'm trying.

And now she's gonna be here.

Oh, that's what
I didn't tell you.

Sandy said she wants to do
50/50 custody now.

Ruby will be here...
Wait, what?

- Oh, yeah, yeah.
- When did that happen?

- Yeah, I didn't tell you.
- When did that happen?

- Yeah, I mean, sandy...
- Oh, my gosh.

You know, she's having trouble.

So she finally agreed 50/50,
and she needs my help, so...

that's what's best for ruby,
I'm sure.

I mean,
you're cool with it, right?

Oh, yes.
I'm sorry, just surprised.

Yes, I...
that's great for ruby

and great for you
and... and me.

I think it's gonna be...

I think it's gonna be good.

Yeah.

Little bit of jelly.

I don't like it when my
patients hit the ground, zeek.

I don't ever want your cranium
meeting concrete, okay?

We really don't know

exactly what happened
to cause your collapse,

and I really
don't like not knowing.

So I think we should find out.

I want to go in there,
just with a scope,

take a look,
and see what's going on.

If there's blockages,
we can deal with that.

If there are complications,
we can deal with that too.

And he didn't want to listen
to the doctor in vegas.

And it could be nothing.
