Parenthood (2010–2015): Season 6, Episode 12 - We Made It Through the Night - full transcript

I'm not sure about
this operation thing, Millie.

We'll talk about it.
We'll talk to the kids.

We'll make the decision,
you and me.

Okay.

There's hope.

We just have to do
a lot of work.

Whatever it is,
we will work it out.

- Okay?
- I will never leave you again.

What are you telling me?
Are we getting married?

Mm-hmm.

The luncheonette... I'm just
going over these numbers again.



I thought we were
done with that.

Jasmine came to talk
to me about it.

I've changed my mind.

Let's make the luncheonette
sail once again.

Crosby, come on, can we not have

another conversation
about mixing boards?

- We have to talk mixing boards.
- Dude, you're high.

Huh? No, no, no, no, no.
You're low.

- You need to raise yours.
- Lower it.

- No, listen.
- Just lower it.

Hey, there's a lot of gorgeous
models out in the marketplace,

and I want to try one
before we commit.

I don't want to just marry the
first girl I date like you did.

She's not first girl I dated.



Anyway, we shouldn't
be spending

any money right now
on the studio.

Why? We have
insurance money coming.

'Cause we haven't
gotten the insurance check yet.

Okay, well, the second
that check comes in,

we got to restock
the luncheonette so we can be

operational and make sure...
We will.

We're got to make sure
that it's within our budget.

We just have to get
a mixing board

that's within our budget, okay?

Mr. Braverman, the sign

on that side's a little lower
from that side.

That's right.
It's a little low.

You know what,
Edgar? We're on it.

We're gonna lower
that other side.

All right, well,
Mr. Braverman

says that I need a mentor
for career week.

- Right?
- Will you be my mentor?

Oh, you want to
get into the music business?

I got to say, I noticed
a little rock and roll swagger

when you walked out.

Well, I kind of want
to be a French chef.

Chef, that's great, Edgar.

That's a great goal.
All right.

But you know what, we should
probably get you a real chef

to be your mentor because
I'm a recording studio executive

and to be honest, I don't know
that much about cooking.

Well, that didn't stop you
from getting

into the music business.

Lack of knowledge.
I want you, Mr. Braverman.

It's got to be you.

Edgar, it would be an honor
to be your mentor.

All right.

- I'm gonna do it.
- Okay.

I won't let you down.

Wasn't that nice?

How are you gonna teach him
about French cooking?

I will get a French cookbook.
I'll figure it out.

Why don't you teach him
diesel mechanics

or karate
or something like that?

You don't think I can
figure out how to help him

be a French cook?
No, I do not.

In fact, I have very serious,
serious doubts about the success

of this school knowing
that you're gonna teach.

Well, I can, my friend.
All right, all right.

I'm gonna fix this sign and...

Great, great.

You're going
the wrong direction

with this one, Braverman.

- So dad's moving back in?
- That's right.

He's moving back in.
Moving back in.

It's gonna be just like it was.
Finally.

Oh, hey, Victor,

I understand if this is a lot
to process. It's...

you're moving back in forever?

Yes.

It's permanent?

Yeah.

How can you be so sure?

What... how do you know?

Well, we talked about
that a lot, actually,

and we wanted to make sure.

And when it comes
right down to it, we just...

we just love each other,

and so...

and we've always
loved each other, you know,

even when we had our problems.

So what happens
when the next problem comes up?

What happens
when you guys fight?

Then what?

What about, like,
an outdoor ceremony, you know?

I'm sure 'cause here...

this fortune cookie will
tell me where we're having...

here, it says Bruce Willis
did it at a poolside cabana.

It's pretty nice.
"You're a funloving person,

and you will
find much happiness."

I don't want
any lame cliche gazebo...

We're not gonna have a gazebo.

Crap. You know what...
I mean, it should be special.

- Like, a beach?
- But then, what do you picture?

I don't understand.
Or, like-like, an island?

I always thought,
like, a volcano.

Maybe the...
I'm sorry, what?

Yeah, a dormant volcano.

- Did he say "volcano?"
- That doesn't sound crazy.

I've always dreamed of having
my second wedding at a volcano.

Not on the volcano,
but the base of it.

You got to think
of it artistically.

- I can see it now.
- That's not an omen

or anything.
Grandma tripping.

- In Bora Bora, mount pelini...
- Mount pelini?

That's not a real mountain.

- I don't want it at...
- How about there?

There's a dormant volcano.

I climbed it with this guy.
This is pointless.

How do you know
it's dormant though?

What about a cave?

No, I don't want
to get married in a cave.

No, I'm dead
serious. I'm dead serious.

- They're so scary.
- We won't make it scary.

And they're moist,
and my hair will be terrible.

It'll be frizzy and damp.

That's what... contrast.

That's what art is about,
contrast, photography.

No, it's not.
Not when you're getting married.

Yes, you have the beauty
of a wedding...

Mom... Mom!

- Mom, mom!
- What, what?

I think I'm having
a contraction.

- What? Oh, my... oh.
- Ow, ow, ow.

What are you doing?
Sit down.

- Ow.
- Calm, calm.

Just stay calm now.
Just stay calm.

Are you sure?
I mean, does it hurt?

Everybody breathe
and stay calm.

I'm getting your
bag, I'm getting your bag.

Get my car. Get my coffee.
Do you want ice chips?

You want ice chips?
She doesn't want ice chips.

She's cold.
That's with tonsils, right?

You always get cold when
you get a contraction. She's cold.

Wait, where are my keys?
Where are the keys?

I don't know where
the... you're in charge

of knowing where the keys are.
Stay calm.

I got... you know, in the car,
I'll put on some pop music.

- Excuse me, what is happening?
- I've got an air supply...

Come on, Zeek.

We're almost there.

Just a little bit more.

Yeah, I'm coming, Millie,
coming.

You know,

we've heard about this view
for so many years,

and we've never gotten up here.

Yeah, okay, we'll...
we'll see it all, Millie.

- We'll see it. Yeah.
- Yeah, we will.

Just a second.
I just need a breather here.

Damn it.
Oh, God.

Well, you know, this is...

this is kind of
perfect right here.

Look, I think this is our spot.

Really?

Yeah, it's beautiful.

Yeah, it is beautiful.

Okay.

Ah, man.

Oh, Millie,
I'm so tired of this.

Oh, God.

I've been...

I've been thinking
about what the doctor said,

you know, about the operation.

I don't want
to go through it again.

I just want to
live my life, Millie.

Enjoy every moment I got left.

Yeah.

I don't want... I don't want
to go under the knife again.

That's...

I don't want to do that.

Just... it's too much.

I think this is
the right thing to do.

I think it's what's...
what's best for us.

Okay.

You're with me?

Of course I'm with you.

I'm always with you.

Yeah.

? may God
bless and keep you always?

? and may your wishes
all come true?

? may you always do
for others?

? and let others do for you?

? may you build a ladder
to the stars?

? and climb on every rung?

? and may you stay?

? forever young?

? may you grow up
to be righteous?

? may you grow up to be true?

? may you always know
the truth?

? and see the lights
surrounding you?

? may you always be
courageous?

? stand upright and be strong?

? and may you stay?

? forever young?

? may you stay?

? forever young?

- We're almost there.
- Breathe.

Okay, calm, calm, calm.

Oh, don't worry about that.
Just go. Ow, ow, ow.

You're in the ocean.

- You just...
- Stop it with the ocean.

- Just drive.
- Okay, I'm driving.

Hank, you're going so slow!

We're not gonna get
into an accident now.

Okay, well, I don't want to have
a baby in the back of a car.

- Hank, just go!
- Drive!

All right, fine, fine, fine.

- Just stay calm.
- It's a red light!

We're in the ocean.

Can't you just drive
like a normal person?

- Stay calm, stay calm.
- Slow down.

Slow down, slow down.

Pregnant lady. Where do we go?
Pregnant lady.

- Where's the baby?
- What are you doing here?

- Her stomach, obviously.
- Ow!

No, you texted
that she has a baby.

Why are we talking
about what I texted to you?

Your whole text...
it said, "baby,"

three exclamation points,
"hospital."

Uh, that means
the baby's coming.

Get to the hospital
when you can.

- Where's the baby?
- Not here yet.

- Coming.
- Right?

Out of the way.

Yeah, that text was confusing.

So you just got there?

Okay, she just got there.
Good.

Well,
how many centimeters is she?

You don't... okay, good.

There's no rush.
Good, I'll see you there.

Okay, bye.

Oh, let's clear this out
for you.

You did
some underwear shopping.

Yup, went shopping.

- It's different.
- Yeah.

There we go.

All right.

And you put the TV in here.
I saw that.

- Yeah, from the guest bedroom.
- Yeah.

Nobody was watching in there,
and I'm alone in here, so...

I'll put a wall mount up.

It'll save us some space.

Great.
That's a great idea.

Cootchie-cootchie-coo!
Goo-goo-ga-ga.

What is it with hospital
gift shops? I don't get it.

I want you to practice
holding the baby.

They got nothing.
They got nothing here.

Should we get
some of the bubblegum ones?

- Ooh, get a royal carnation.
- Let's get a couple of these.

I mean, the bubblegum would be

better than these
'cause these are...

I'll tell you what, guys.
I'm buying.

- These are nice.
- No, that's weak. Put it down.

- That's horrible.
- I tell you, you know what?

It's nice... we've been spending
so much time in hospitals,

we finally have something
to celebrate.

Let's get good ones.
Do you have camachos?

Camachos, the cigar.
You should have camachos.

If you're here,
why don't we get good ones?

Hank, I think
these are the best they got.

I think we're gonna
have to settle for these.

The big-time wrestler?
You got Hector camachos?

- You're gonna have to suffer.
- Oh, they're horrible.

- All right.
- Can you get through it?

- We'll see.
- We can take it, I guess.

You go troll the area
for some camachos...

no, it's all right.
Who cares, right?

- And, you know...
- We're having a baby, right?

The baby will be one
or two years old by the time...

get some of the bubblegum ones.

Can we get
some of the bubblegum ones?

- I almost killed...
- I'm gonna hit the crapper.

- All three of us in the car.
- Okay.

I'm so happy they worked
everything out, right?

Isn't that great?

Yay, luncheonette.

Yup.

It's really great.

So great.

It's great.
So great.

Something wrong?

No, I mean,
if you're saying it's great,

then it must be great,
I just...

you don't really seem
like you're...

I'm fine; I just wish
that you wouldn't have

inserted yourself
into this situation.

They had it all figured out.

I didn't insert myself
into anything.

Yes, you kind of did.

You guilted my husband
into doing this.

- I did what?
- You did. You guilted into...

I didn't guilt him
into anything.

Jasmine, they made a decision
to dissolve the business,

and you talked to him, and you
guilted him back into this.

- No, I didn't.
- Yes, you did.

Kristina, he's a grown man.

I didn't do...
make him do anything.

The business is failing, okay?

- It wasn't failing.
- Yes, it was.

And then he felt guilty
about it because of...

And what's wrong
with me talking to him?

I just wanted him to have
all the information.

Crosby taking care of him
and everything else.

That's it.
Wait, what?

And you had to go
and talk to him and make him...

and because he's a child,

I guilted him into making
that decision, right?

It's just...
the problem is,

is he's taken care
of his family for so long.

- It's not fair anymore.
- Kristina.

- What's going on, guys?
- It's not fair.

It's not fair
that he's always the one

to be responsible
for the family.

What's going...
what is this?

No one said he's responsible
for the family.

And I never would've gone
behind my husband's back

- and talked to your husband about this.
- Oh, but you did.

Wait a minute, what's going on?

You didn't do that. You...

- I did.
- It's the truth.

You went and talked to Adam
about our business?

- Yup.
- Yes.

- She didn't do anything wrong.
- When? Right before...

- right before you...
- What?

Is that why
you changed your mind?

Because my wife
went and talked to you,

and then you pitied me?

- No. It's...
- That's what...

no, Crosby, it doesn't matter.

- It's decided.
- It does matter.

Please hold on a second here.

Dad, it's all right.
I got this.

Look, there's a lot
of reasons, Crosby,

but you got what you wanted.
It's okay.

Well, you don't need
to do me any favors.

I don't need your charity.

Crosby,
you're upsetting your father.

- Is that what you think it is?
- Well, okay, great, good.

'Cause I don't want to take care
of my little brother anymore.

Oh, you were taking care of me?

Taking care of him?
What is that supposed to mean?

I think I had the idea
for the luncheonette,

which gave you a job for three
years, not the other way around.

- You're upsetting your father.
- Okay, I'm very sorry.

Hanging out with musicians,
I'm crunching numbers,

and yeah, sometimes I don't
love it; Sometimes I hate it.

You were crunching numbers
at TNS.

- That's life.
- You should leave.

- That's having a job.
- 'Cause I quit.

All right,
so there's no more luncheonette.

- Crosby, wait.
- Okay, go ahead, quit.

What are you gonna do?

- Hi.
- Hey.

- Oh.
- It was a false alarm.

Yeah, you know?

It was gas.

- Huh.
- Great.

Crosby. Crosby.

Hey, you can't throw a tantrum
and leave.

That's the second time
that you've gone behind my back

after I told you something
in private.

You went and told your mom
that I had financial issues,

and then you go tell Adam that,

and everyone knows but me,
and I look stupid?

I'm sorry.
I was trying to help you.

Oh, because I can't
help myself?

- That's not why I did it.
- Listen to me.

I can't be in business
with somebody

who doesn't want
to be in business with me.

I can't have a partnership
like that.

Baby, I just went to Adam
'cause I knew

how much the luncheonette
means to you.

That's why.
I'm sorry.

It doesn't mean anything
to me now.

What was special about it
was Adam and I.

I don't have that now,
so it doesn't matter.

Yes.

Your chocolate chip pancakes
are so much better than mom's.

Thank you.
You're right. They are better.

Wow.

Come on, mom.
You have to give it to him.

- They're so much better.
- No.

Victor,
tell them mine are awesomer.

Well, yours are a little chewy,
but that's totally fine.

- What?
- Okay.

- But other...
- Oh, you guys are the worst.

Other skills.

Oh, this is work.
I'll be right back.

- You guys want another one?
- Hi.

Not a good time.

Yup.

Uh-huh.

Is mom is still taking us
to school?

- Yup.
- Um...

If we're late, Mrs. Reese
says I basically fail.

Mrs. Reese
is like a slave driver.

Okay, let me ask her.

Hey.

Sorry, can you, um...

did you still want to take 'em?

Chris, can I call you
right back?

- Thank you.
- Okay, that was Chris?

Yeah, it was Chris.
I'm sorry.

I know, we have a case,
and he's gonna be calling.

- You know, this is part of...
- Yeah, no, I know.

Listen, I understand.
Let us just...

can it not be when we've having
breakfast with theids?

It's our first breakfast...-.

And Victor's
finally opening up.

I know.
It's going so well.

We just... we had
to file this case by 9:00 A.M.,

and so it was getting close,
so I had to take the call.

No, I know.

I'm sorry that it's Chris,

but, you know,
I slept with people.

You slept with people.
It's just... who cares?

Let's go.
Let's...

wait.
Wait, what?

What do you mean, people?

I mean, you slept with...

Okay, I did not mean to have...

we don't have time
for this conversation right now.

Okay, right, right,
but how many people?

- Joel.
- Sorry.

- It's... no, it's just...
- Okay.

But just for the record,

I didn't...
I didn't sleep with people.

That's...

all right, we're not having
this conversation right now.

- I'm sorry I brought it up.
- Okay.

We can have
this conversation later.

There it is.

- Oh, wow.
- There it is right there.

Santillana del mar.

Ah, that's pretty.

You got to...
you got to say it like that.

About ten years ago,
it was an assignment,

and I thought,
"if I ever really get married"...

you know, I didn't think
I was ever getting married...

but I thought,
"hey, if I ever do"...

right there.
Look at that photo, right?

- If you... hmm?
- Yeah.

- Right?
- Hmm.

That's not a gazebo,
that's for sure.

- That'd be cool, wouldn't it?
- Mm-hmm.

Yeah.

I mean, someday,
but that seems like a lot

Right now to go

someplace far away.

Yeah, I know.
I know.

No, I'm not gonna, you know...

- I get it. I... it's also...
- Yeah.

No, I get it. I get it.
I know.

- It's not that I'm not excited.
- No, I don't care.

I'm not... there's no rush.

I'm not pushing it.
I'm just...

Don't worry about it.

I've been meaning to talk to you
about your...

the whole thing with your dad.

It's okay.

Yeah, you know, I...

just don't... don't know
what that experience is like,

you know, thinking
you're gonna lose your dad.

My dad, you know, my dad left
when I was a little kid,

and I don't even really
know him, but, uh,

I'm just glad you had him
for a long time

'cause he's...
he's got to be a real good guy.

You know,
'cause you're so good.

You're...

you're beautiful.
I mean, you're beautiful.

To look at,
you're very beautiful.

I mean on the inside.

You're...
that's where you're also...

you're a beautiful person,
you know?

And I just think, like,
your dad...

He gave you...

You know...

A lot of love growing up.

Thank you.

How much longer
do I have to do this?

Oh, could you give me
just five more minutes?

Yeah, if I don't cramp up.

Um, I think we should

tell the kids
what we talked about.

About...
Not having the surgery.

Are you ready
to have that conversation?

No.

But I need to.

So, I mean, we could have...

we could have 'em
over to dinner, you know?

Just the four kids, and...

We could tell 'em then.

No grandkids, no distractions,

no... No running around
or anything.

Just the... Just us.

Just the original six.

We could tell them.

What do you think?

Okay.

Okay.

Then that's what we'll do.
That's the plan.

All right, Edgar.

It's recipe selection day.
You ready?

- Yup.
- Here's what I'm thinking.

Something French,
something simple.

An omelet.

As your mentor,
what do you say, mentee?

Well, oh, a camera.

Oh, picture opportunity.

Career week. Hey.

- What are you doing?
- Posing for your picture.

No.
I am documenting career week. Us.

It might be something
we want to work up to.

- Maybe next year.
- Okay.

Probably doesn't matter
what you cook

since you're probably gonna
end up unemployed anyway.

Max,
what are you talking about?

Autism has
an 85% unemployment rate.

No, that is not necessarily true.

This is good stuff.
This is raw emotion.

It's not necessarily true, Max.

It absolutely is.
It is actually...

no, well, it's not gonna
be true here at chambers, okay?

You guys are all gonna
be employed.

Edgar, you're gonna be employed.
Max, you're gonna be employed.

Dylan, Aaron Brownstein, Kiara.

Everybody's gonna
be employed, okay?

Dylan might have a shot
because she has no diagnosis,

but the rest of us
are basically screwed.

No, you're not screwed.

You're not screwed.
Don't listen to him, Edgar.

Listen to me.
Max, you're not screwed, okay?

You all have great potential
to have great careers.

- That's extremely subjective.
- And I'll tell you something.

Edgar,
we are making that souffle.

I'll get started.

- Dad, look this way.
- Souffle it is.

We have declared it.
Souffle.

Dad, this last photo of you
was terrible.

Okay, that's all right.

? go round and round?

? painted ponies go ud

? we're captive
on the carousel?

? of time?

Hey, you're playing our song.

- Yeah. Hi.
- Hi.

What's your excuse
for coming by this time?

I don't have one; I just
felt like coming by again.

Wow. You look good.

I just wanted to make sure
you're okay.

You okay? I'm headed
to grandma and grandpa's.

- I'm fine. I have a phone.
- Ah, a phone.

- I forget.
- Yes, it's a new invention.

- I can call you.
- Okay.

- I'll text you, I promise.
- You look good.

- No aches or pains or...
- No. I feel great.

All right, okay, well,
I'm just sticking my head in.

That's all.

Uh..

What

I was just-on say you could stay

and hang out for a minute
if you want.

Oh, really?

I would love to.

You okay?

Yeah.

Just, like...

Thinking about stuff.

Yeah.

Uh,

I am feeling bad because...

The other day, you know,

when I thought I was gonna
have the baby...

When I found out that I wasn't,

I felt so relieved.

I mean, I have a job
that pays me nothing

and that's probably not
gonna last much longer,

and I have no idea even
how to take care of myself,

and I just...

something shifts.
You just have to trust me.

Something shifts,
and you'll figure it out.

But what if I don't?

What if... what if having
this baby was a mistake?

When you hold the baby,

something happens,

and I can almost guarantee you

you won't feel like
it's a mistake then.

How can you hold this thing
with that stomach?

You're my hero.

Go on.

G?

G.

? yesterday a child came out?

? into wonder?

Wonder or wander?

? caught a dragonfly?

? inside a jar?

? fearful when the sky?

? falling
? was full of a star?

Everybody.

? and the seasons,
they go round and round?

? and the painted ponies
go up and down?

- ? we're captive?
- C.

? on a carousel of?

G.

? time?

? we can't return?

? we can only look behind
from where we came?

? and go round and round
and round in the circle game?

- joni.
- Whoo!

? round and round and round
in the circle game?

You still got it.

Thank you, Detroit.

You were the original
little sulky girl.

Yes, right,
I think you sulked nonstop

from about 1992 to '94 maybe.

Okay, forgive me
for ten years ago.

She perked right up

when Frank Gangi
came on the scene though.

Oh, Gangi,
what a beautiful hairdo.

"Mrs. Braverman,
is Julia home?

- Julia.
- I remember the teeth, I do.

He had a transplant
with a horse, right?

That's how he ended up
with those?

I remember all of it
about my first boyfriend.

And then, yeah, you brought...

whose name
is not gangrene or Ganges

or whatever
you guys called him.

Oh, I'm sorry.
Mr. Ganges, is it?

That's...

"Exactly is your intention with
my daughter with those teeth?"

Wait a minute,
I didn't do that.

- Yes, you did.
- And with a name like Gangi...

- scarier than normal.
- Oh, yeah.

That was the same day that Adam

tried to kill you with a knife...
with a Swiss army knife.

The same day my eldest brother

stabbed me
with a Swiss army knife.

- Yeah.
- That's right. Yeah.

You stabbed yourself
in the neck.

- I didn't...
- Oh, sure, that happens a lot.

- People stab themselves.
- Sticking to that story.

If you hadn't stolen my knife
in the first place,

none of it
would've ever happened.

I was eight years old. I was looking
at it 'cause I was a curious little kid.

I told you to give it back.
You wouldn't give it back.

Could've been
a little more generous.

Noyou stole it.
I asked you to put it down.

You didn't ask me
to do anything.

Yes, I did.

- Oh!
- It was stolen from me.

You guys,
you're holding actual kn.

- Put 'em down.
- So I grabbed...

- I let go.
- No. No, you didn't.

You grabbed the knife
out of my hand...

? is it love when you don't??

? there is more
when you let go?

? of the fear that you can't?

? as we burn in the fire?

? slowly learning to breathe?

? just keep calm
in the falling?

? always looking?

? for an underneath?

Hi.
Yeah, I'm coming back.

I just... I needed to rest
a little bit here.

? I'm sorry
we don't have forever?

? ooh?

That dumb knife fight, right?

Look, Sarah,
there's so much yelling.

It's just...

Hey, so...

Um...

Hank proposed to me,

and we're gonna get married.

- Congratulations.
- Thank you.

Oh, baby.

Oh, I can hardly wait
to walk you down the aisle,

you know?

Me too.
I can hardly wait.

Yeah.

But, baby, I'm so proud of you.

Okay?

? I'm sorry
we don't have forever?

Thanks, dad.

You're the best.

? ooh?

Okay?

You're home late.

Yeah.

Traffic on the bridge
was horrendous.

How was
the big sibling-only dinner?

Dad's not having the surgery.

I don't know.

He decided
it's too risky or something.

I don't know.

Maybe he'll change his mind.

I don't think so.

Ah, Zeek.

?ike I never run?

? try like I never tried?

? fight like I never fought?

We have to talk
about our stuff.

We have to talk
about my job and Chris.

Okay.
I just don't want 'em...

you saw how upset Victor was.

I don't want to argue.

I don't want 'em
to hear us arguing.

I just...

okay. I don't...
I don't know.

We can't just let it fester.
We have to get it out.

Okay, well, then,
I don't want to talk about it.

I don't want to argue.

You understand?

I don't want to...
I just moved back.

I don't wanting that back
into this house.

I'm too... I'm too scared
to argue.

Well, I'm too scared
not to argue.

? I'm always saying?

I just...
I hate... I hate

that you still
work with that guy.

Okay, but
it's over. It is like...

I think you think it's over.

It is over for me...

the guy is
a totally different beast.

You have to trust me.

Any time
you're in a situation like that,

it's gonna keep coming up.

You don't want to quit my job,
and we agreed to that.

I'm not asking you
to stop being a lawyer.

I was unemployed for so long.

That was so humiliating for me.
It was so...

you can stay working
at this job

while you look for another job.

That's...

Joel, so we have to reevaluate
everything right now?

I'm getting adjusted to this.

- Like, I had no idea.
- This is...

several men sleeping in my bed
while I was gone.

Zero. There were zero.

I'm asking you to be sensitive.

If you found out that
I'd slept with multiple women,

and all of a sudden...

Joel, I would be very hurt
by it, of course,

but I trust you
because I love you.

- Yes, and I love you.
- I know.

? made me want it?

- Hey, buddy.
- Max?

Can we talk to you
for a quick sec?

What you reading?

Hey, can we put the book away?

Oh.

Max, let's just close that
for a second, okay?

- It's kind of important.
- We're just gonna talk to you.

Dad and I want to talk to you
about a couple things.

So dad actually told me
what you said

about that stupid 85% statistic,

which is just
a bunch of garbage.

Statistics are neither stupid
nor smart.

- Well, it's garbage.
- They're only accurate.

And we want to tell you
what we see for your future

because I think that's
a little bit more accurate,

to be honest with you.

You're not a number.
You're a person.

It's impossible.
You can't see the future.

In a way, we can, Max.

We can
because we've watched you...

we've watched you grow...
grow.

Yup, and we're very proud
of what we see.

And in so many amazing,
amazing ways.

And you are so...

you're so talented,

and you're smart.

- Mm-hmm.
- You're funny, and...

and you're interested
in so many things.

Passionate about history
and photography...

- beautiful photography.
- Photography work.

In your extremely
subjective opinion,

you believe
that someday in some capacity

I will be employable
by someone somewhere.

That's part
of what we're trying

to say to you, absolutely.

I think you're gonna be
more than employable, honey.

- You're gonna be...
- You might be employing others.

You're gonna be a superstar.

Open your own photography
studio... you already are.

And dad and I can't wait
to go on this journey with you.

Is this getting through, Max?

You're not limited by anything.

Can I go back
to reading my book now?

Yeah.

I think you're gonna
be all right.

We love you.

We've got you, buddy, okay?

I love you.

I don't like this.

I know, but sometimes
you got to suck it up.

Look at you working away.

What?

Like, you're just giving them
such nice attention.

Yeah, well, you got to.

Um, that's what the problem is.

People don't, and it's like
throwing money out the window.

Especially these...
these are...

these are the top,
so you got to give 'em good...

you can't just let 'em go.

- Mm.
- That would be stupid.

- You okay?
- Mm-hmm.

I've just been thinking.

I don't want you
to be disappointed,

but I really just want
to get married here.

Oh, yeah.
I'm not gonna be disappointed.

We can get married around here.
You know the...

in the Napa valley area, there's
some good landscapes there that,

you know, at the golden hour...

but, Hank, you know,
I feel like

I really want to do it
here in San Francisco and soon.

Like, next week.
I just...

- next week?
- Mm-hmm.

I...

I just want
to make sure that, um...

That my dad is there.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, we don't have
to go anywhere.

No, I want your dad there too.

We'll do it next week.

Okay.

He's gonna be there.
He's gonna be there.

Don't worry about it.

Don't cry.
I don't...

I don't like when you cry.

We'll get pictures
of everybody.

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

I can get rid of those.

Don't.

It's looking
really good, Edgar.

- All right.
- You want to pour it in?

All right.

Is it really true
about the 85%?

Oh, Edgar, I don't want you
to worry about what Max said.

But what if I suck at cooking?

Then what?

How will I find something
that I love?

Well, you just keep searching.

Sometimes, it's a long journey,

and sometimes
your career finds you.

You know, there are people
who figure out

what they want to do at a really
young age like my brother.

And other people are 45,

still don't know
what they want to do.

How'd you find your passion?

You know, I'll let you know
when it happens.

Okay.

It looks good.

- Ready to set that timer?
- Yup.

All right.

Timer set.

All right, and now...

- We wait.
- We wait.

? ave?

? Maria?

? ave Maria?

Oh, my God.

Yes!

- Shh.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay.

Easy, easy.

? ave Maria?

? amen?

Oh, God.

Oh, my God.

- Hi.
- Mom, it's happening.

It's happening. It's real.
It's real this time.

Okay, baby. Okay, I'm on my way.
I'm on my way.

It really hurts. Mom, mom, mom,
don't tell anybody else, okay?

Okay, I won't tell anybody,
and it'll be just me.

Okay, just you and me.

- Okay, please hurry, okay.
- Okay, I love you.

- Keep breathing.
- I love you, okay.

Okay, I got to go.
She wants just me.

Just... yeah? All right.

I'll be okay.

Send me a picture of the baby.
