Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip (2006–2007): Season 1, Episode 22 - What Kind of Day Has It Been - full transcript

Previously on Studio 60:

Wes is recovering.
Meaning you're in charge...

...of the most valuable property
this network has ever owned.

That sketch is a ticking bomb
and it will go off on Monday.

If it makes you feel better,
Danny and I have a deal with Jack.

And I kept my promise.

But now we have a problem,
as quite frankly I predicted we would.

Sorry, an apology will not be coming.

Five years ago, two words from you,
you could've saved your job.

No. Two words from you five years ago
and I could've kept my job.

She developed a postop infection.
There is a chance it could become worse.



"No wonder those guys wanna kill us,
I live here and I want to kill us. "

- That's what you said.
- It got out of hand.

- You'll draft an apology and you'll read it.
- I'm not reading anything.

Aljazeera's gonna report
they've executed Airman Valdez, Tom...

I'll get the lawyer back
and give them money.

- Wait for verification before...
- I'm not waiting.

- This is terrorism, this is what they want!
- Face the facts, would you? It works.

- Danny.
- Matt?

- Hi.
- I told you to stay at the theater.

- I know.
- I told you to stay.

I know. I went ahead
and exercised my judgment.

- When has that ever worked out for us?
- I'm fine.

- What are you doing here?
- I came here.

- Head wound.
- What happened to Simon?



- Went off the rails.
- I know.

- On TV.
- Four in the morning, who's watching?

People in New York,
it's 7 in the morning.

- How is she?
- Same.

You wanna see the baby?

- That's what I'm here for.
- Come on.

I'm just gonna stay here
and have a concussion.

- All right.
- Okay.

This is my daughter.

Wow.

You know what?

I've never felt so much like a man
until I just said that.

- She's beautiful.
- I know.

I didn't wanna say it around the other
fathers, but I'm pretty sure she's gifted.

- And she's okay?
- Yeah.

Because this is the natal ICU.

It's just a precaution.

She's two weeks early,
but she's fully cooked.

They gave her a standardized test.

Activity, pulse, respiration.
She got nine out of 10.

What'd she miss?

- Grimace.
- Grimace?

She missed grimace.

She's supposed to grimace
when they touch her with something cold.

Like that's gonna keep her out
of Harvard.

- She have a name?
- Baby Girl McDeere.

You're hoping
that she'll become a stripper?

Well, you have to put something...
Shut up.

Oh, yeah, she's a little knockout.

She looks like her mom.

So, what's happening with Tom?

You remember Mary Tate?

- The lawyer?
- Yeah.

- Yeah.
- Her firm does work...

...for a company called Trask Security
that arranges ransom deliveries...

...in Latin America
and now they're in Afghanistan too.

She thinks we can buy him back?

Working the phones with
her partners in London. Jack's involved.

All right, well, I'm involved too now.

And she mentioned something.

What?

Well, she mentioned something.

What?

What?

You have to get Jordan
to sign some papers.

Mary can prepare them right now.
That's why I came down here.

- What kind?
- It's nothing.

- Put a pen in her hand, have her sign it.
- What are you talking about?

- You know what I'm talking about.
- I don't. I don't. I swear to God, I don't.

Isn't there a chance Jordan could die?

She's definitely gonna die,
just not tonight.

- But if she does...
- Matt...

- But if she does...
- Stop.

But if she does,
she goes to the biological father...

...or the State of California
and you don't have any rights.

I'll be her husband, I put a ring on her.
Once we're married...

You're not married.

She has to make you
the baby's legal guardian.

I'm not gonna... She just had a...

I'm not gonna... I mean, she just...

I'm not gonna go in there
like some guy with a...

She just had a baby...

...by emergency C-section.

Then nearly bled to death.
Now she's got a postoperative...

- All right, take it easy.
- A postoperative infection.

And she's probably gonna find a way
to blame all this on our ratings.

Yeah, Mama's a loon.

But she loves us.

So we're gonna roll with it, but I would,
for the important stuff, come to me.

Shoes, lipstick, talk to her.
Everything else should be me.

- Dan...
- I'm not doing it.

All right, now, please,
go back to the theater.

I want you to tell me more
about this private security group...

...so I can help Tom make the decision.
I want you to get Simon out of trouble.

And I want you to keep the staff
and the cast together.

I've been doing that.

Simon's on TV saying he understands
why the terrorists wanna kill us.

Well, that wasn't his fault.

- Really?
- It wasn't entirely his fault.

Go back to the theater.

- Look, I know...
- Go back to the theater.

She's been under anesthesia.

Hm?

She's been under anesthesia.

And she's on a morphine drip
and a few other things.

When she's this medicated...

...ask Mary if Jordan's signature
would mean anything.

- They still won't let me in there.
- I know.

- Won't let me pick up the baby.
- I know.

They won't let me see Jordan,
because she got an infection?

- Yes.
- They won't let me pick up the baby.

Afraid that I may steal her
and sell her into slavery.

- Yeah.
- In the meantime...

...Tom's brother
who joined the Air Force...

...on September 12th
is being held by the Taliban.

And Simon has gone on TV and apparently
expressed his allegiance to al Qaeda.

This can't possibly be my life.

What we're showing you now
is a footage just released on Aljazeera.

The three men appear to be standing
in front of the body of an airman...

...a U.S. Airman.

They're claiming it's the body
of Airman Herman valdez...

...even though this hasn't been confirmed
by the Pentagon.

Pentagon sources believe it's likely
that this video's been doctored...

- The video looks real to me.
- It's not.

I don't think they have lot of special
effects capabilities in Kandahar.

It's not Herman Valdez,
that's a four-week-old dead body.

You don't have to be George Lucas
to pull it off. If it was Valdez...

...they'd show his face.

- You don't know that.
- I do know that and I can confirm that.

- How?
- Experts at Aljazeera.

- Our good friends at Aljazeera.
- They take the original tape...

Why hasn't anybody hit bin Laden's private
broadcast studio with a missile yet?

They take the original tape for analysis.

They compare it to other tapes
for consistency.

They run it through a voice analyzer,
look for an encoded date stamp.

They analyze the images using...

- How long does that take?
- Few days.

And how long does it take to slit
my little brother's throat from ear to ear?

You started the process, didn't you?

I did.

- The I.D. Process?
- Yes.

It must be nice being rich.

- It is.
- And having rich friends.

- Yeah.
- You guys hire your own security...

...your own detectives,
and now you're hiring your own army.

Yes, I am.

Because the one I hired with the taxes I pay
doesn't seem to be working out.

- Excuse me?
- Captain...

No, excuse me,
3000 of my friends are dead.

Another 15,000 left some arms and legs
pretty far away from home.

We know how to fight
and we know how to win.

It's against the law for me
to countermand the commander in chief...

...but you and I know both know
where this war is being lost.

- Don't do it.
- All I've done is start the process.

- Don't do it.
- Why not?

You don't give money to them
and fund their operation.

You don't give them incentive
to do it again.

You don't make this world
a more dangerous place.

And you don't pay ransom
for a member of the U.S. Armed Forces.

Well, all that sounds good
except for this:

That's my parents' kid.

And I'm bringing him home.

When you do, he'll pull out his side arm
and cock you with it...

...because I promise you
it would be the last thing he wants.

- I don't care.
- This is what he signed up for.

No, it's not.

No, it's not.
He signed up on September 12th.

While we were all scared
out of our minds...

...he ran as fast as he could
toward what we were scared of.

He was winning till we all rallied
around Skippy McDumb-ass...

...while he pulled half the troops out of
Afghanistan and put them someplace else.

This country failed my brother.
I'm not going to.

Hire private K and R security to buy him out
and that's exactly what you're gonna do.

I think I'd like to not talk for a while.

Sure.

You're still here.

You told me to stay here.

I tell you to do a lot of things.

Well, there are armed guards
outside the door.

They're not armed guards,
they're NBS security.

They've got flashlights.

Any chance you've calmed down?

- I'm completely calm.
- Yeah?

You'll read a statement of apology?

I said I was calm, I didn't say my spine
became detached from my brain.

I think your brain's become detached
from your brain.

You said, referring to Islamic terrorists,
"No wonder they wanna kill us. "

That, in the business,
is what we call a sound bite.

You guys cooking up something
for Tom's brother?

- Yeah.
- I want in on it.

There's nothing to be in on yet.

There's a company called Trask Security,
handles ransom delivery in kidnap cases.

- This isn't a kidnapping, Mark's a prisoner.
- Hard to say.

- Where's the money coming from?
- Don't worry about it.

People will kick in, I want mine to be
the first account that gets cleared out.

You'll need that money.

- Jack...
- You ever been married?

No.

When you're married,
you say "I'm sorry" a lot.

"I'm sorry" when you don't mean it...

...when you don't know
what you could've done wrong...

...when you just wanna move the hell on.

You're getting divorced.

- That's right.
- Why?

I was tired of saying "I'm sorry. "

- I appreciate your honesty.
- More than I could say for my wife.

- Do you miss her?
- Very much.

- Do you think you'll ever get married again?
- No.

- Why?
- What do you care?

I'm just making conversation.

What did you mean, you said before...

...Matt and Danny lost their jobs
because you kept your promise?

I won't say I'm sorry,
think I'll apologize to you?

I'm not asking for an apology.

Uh...

Told them that if the ad reps didn't object
to the sketch at dress, they can go on.

- I just should've pulled the plug.
- What'd you do instead?

- I did what I do.
- What's that?

I did what I do, Simon.

This morning marks the beginning
the second week of airstrikes

against various targets
in Afghanistan.

President Bush made a motion again
today with vice President Dick...

This is still my office, right?

- You used to like it when I was in here.
- Your feet are on my desk.

You used to have a lot more of me
than that on your desk.

Well, Luke's in good shape, he works out,
looks to me like he's got a pretty big desk.

- So, what happened?
- Wes is asleep.

What does that mean?

I wasn't speaking in code. Wes is asleep.
The nurse won't wake him up.

When they do wake him up,
he'll return Jack's call...

...tell Jack to go screw himself
and we can all keep working.

There's really no need
for an orange alert.

- Let me ask you a question.
- Sure.

- Lf Al Gore had won the election...
- He did win the election, but go on.

- Oy.
- Did you just say "oy"?

- Yeah.
- Don't anymore.

If Al Gore had won the election...

...if President Gore
had sent his top emissary out here...

...say he sent Bill Clinton out here
to talk to leaders in Hollywood...

...about how the entertainment industry
could help right now...

...would you have had an objection?

Hm.

Would you?

No.

And what's your smug rejoinder?

I don't have one.
I'm saying no, you're right, I wouldn't.

I'd flock to that meeting,
so would almost everyone else.

You wouldn't have been able to get a seat.
Here you go.

You don't find that hypocritical?

I do. I think you're making
an excellent point.

So the difference
is that you don't like them.

- I guess it is.
- You're okay with that?

I seem to have made peace with it.

Matthew...

- What?
- Think I have contempt for my government?

- Yeah.
- Harry, if I do...

...it's nothing to the contempt
my government has for me.

- Your government doesn't know you.
- I know.

But that doesn't stop them
from getting votes...

...by calling me a lazy, pampered,
anti-American, anti-family, immoral...

...perverted, dishonorable, weak fairy.

What is it you like about Luke?

- I'd rather not talk about that.
- I'm sure it's a lot of stuff. Give me one.

- He's easy.
- Every guy is easy.

No, you moron, not easy to get into bed.

He's easy.

- That's it?
- No, that's not it.

You asked me to name one thing.
He's not superior.

That's because he's not superior.

Were you offended by the sketch?

- It doesn't matter.
- No, I'm just asking you.

Honestly,
I wanna know what you thought.

Matt?

Excuse me.

- I just got off the phone with him.
- Wes?

- Yeah.
- How is he?

He's fine.

And it's all over.

Did he wail on Jack?

No. Wes is gonna issue an apology
on behalf of the show.

What are you talking about?

Wes is the face of Studio 60,
he always has been.

He feels the apology should come from him.
We're off the hook.

- He's apologizing?
- Yeah, in a press release.

He caved?

I couldn't tell you what happened
in the call between Wes and Jack.

- I'm calling Wes.
- Leave it.

- No.
- Matty, leave it the hell alone! Okay?

Screw last week's show,
we have to do this week's show.

I'll be in my office.

I don't understand why Suzanne gave me
the number of a pay phone.

- I didn't know there still were.
- Cell phones aren't allowed here.

- They screw with heart monitors.
- Why?

I don't know, why don't I go to medical
school for six years and find out?

- What's happening there?
- Nothing's changed. Nothing's changed.

Suzanne's bringing over the papers,
okay?

- Does she know what they are?
- No.

- Dan?
- Did you ask Mary about the?

Yeah. How groggy is Jordan?

I doubt she knows where she is
or what's happening.

Okay.

She probably doesn't know
she had the baby.

Mary says that if it's contested,
that's gonna be a problem...

...but that it's better than nothing.

You think it's really better than nothing?

I do. And I think Jordan
would be counting on you to do this.

Put a pen in her hand.

- Keep calling me, okay?
- Yeah.

I've got tuna, I've got turkey.

I've got coffee and I got a cookie,
but that's for me.

Come in.

- Hi.
- Hi.

- I called Wes.
- Yeah, I figured you would.

- What'd he say?
- Not much.

Shortest conversation we had. He said,
"I don't like the climate out there. "

I made a joke about it being a dry heat,
he didn't say anything.

Let's not make a big deal out of it,
but I'm gonna have to quit my job, Dan.

I think I knew you were gonna say that.

It's dumb in about nine different ways,
but I knew you'll come in here and say that.

- I'm not an angry young man.
- I know.

- That's why I can't understand why...
- Because we're getting bullied.

We're this close to having the show.

We're gonna be
the executive producers of Studio 60.

Look at me and tell me you weren't shocked
that Wes agreed to apologize.

I don't like the climate out there.

We won't make a big deal out of it.

Great.

- Come in.
- We have to come up with a solution.

Oh, we did. Wes is issuing an apology.

We have to come up
with a different solution.

Why?

Because Matt just quit.

Well, I'm pretty sure
we've got a contract with him.

Then sue him, Jack,
because he just quit.

I'm sure the show will go on.

To be honest with you,
I'm not quite sure how.

- Matt's been the show the last two years.
- The cast is the show.

- And the reason you're able to say that?
- Yes?

You don't know
what you're talking about!

Matt writes the show!

It started with a little, turned into a lot,
turned into the whole thing.

Matt writes it, I produce.

And Wes sits in his office dying of old age.
What did you say to him?

- I'm sorry?
- What did you say to Wes?

I meant, you're speaking to me like
I'm an ill-behaved member of your staff?

We got a serious problem here.

Where were you when I said that?

Standing here, but this
is more serious than frightened affiliates.

- Nothing's more serious than them.
- Jack.

Look, I know he's your friend, I know
you're honorable guys and I respect that.

I also believe you're patriots.

- But the fact is...
- What?

- The fact is that something had...
- Screw friendship, screw honor...

...screw patriotism,
we just lost the franchise.

Oh, please. Show's been on for 15 years,
it's had, like, eight head writers...

...a couple of hundred staff writers,
it'll be fine.

Studio 60's a restaurant
with a good location.

- Give him a couple days, he'll come back.
- No, he won't.

- Danny...
- No, he won't.

He goes out the door, I promise you it'll
take an extraordinary event to get him back.

I'll just have to see if I can keep
on breathing without Matt Albie.

Not worried about the press
that will be created by Matt quitting?

- No.
- Why?

Because we'll look like the good guys.

What did you say to Wes?

Didn't have to say much, Danny.

- He's quitting?
- Keep your voice down.

I tried to talk to him,
he's not here anymore.

- Yeah.
- This is getting out of hand.

- This is ridiculous.
- Yeah.

Don't keep saying "yeah,"
talk him in from the ledge.

If he's not here,
then he's already jumped.

- Matt is gone?
- Yeah.

- You seem very casual about this.
- I'm not.

- That's it?
- Yeah.

- Stop saying "yeah. "
- What do you want?

- For one, who will write the show?
- That will be somebody else's problem.

Why?

Well, because I'm quitting too.

- You've both lost it.
- Yeah.

This is a career decision.
You can't decide like this...

...in the two-minute-walk
back from the NBS building.

- I didn't need the whole two minutes.
- You don't care about politics.

- Not much.
- Then why are you doing this?

I just stood in Jack's office and said:

"Screw friendship,
screw honor, screw patriotism. "

That's how I talked about myself.

And then I added,
"We just lost the franchise. "

That's how I talked about Matt...

...who would stand in front of a train
for any one of us...

...including you
while you're screwing Luke.

He's been threatened by the network,
compromised by me, browbeaten by you...

...gotten his heart broken by Wes
and he's still standing up.

Why am I quitting?

Because they'll start shooting at him.
I'll be standing next to him when they do.

You're a talented girl,
have a good show this week.

You have any regrets about that?

Yeah, I can't believe it took me that long
to stand next to him.

Why the hell
can't you two get it together?

It's not like we haven't tried.

- You haven't tried.
- It's been how many years...?

You haven't. You believe in the divinity
of Jesus and he doesn't?

Are you kidding me? Who gives a damn?

Are you in love with him?

- You know the answer.
- You're in love with him.

He's the only one
I've ever been in love with.

But it looks like that's not enough.

- It is.
- It's not.

- How can you say that?
- Because...

He's never gonna forgive me
for not quitting too.

He never once mentioned that...

He wasn't asking anybody
to join his army.

He's never been angry with you about...

God, he worships you, Harry.

I get that he respects my ability.

I'm not talking about your stage presence,
I'm talking about you.

He's in love with you,
and you're the only one he's ever loved.

When you guys got in that fight
at the Catholics dinner...

...when you wanted
to get back with Luke...

- I was angry and I...
- He went down the rabbit hole.

What do you mean?

He's been writing the show high.

On what?

Painkillers and vodka.

I'm sure whatever else
he can get his hands on.

- How did I not know this?
- He's very good at it.

- Danny.
- Are those the papers from Mary Tate?

- Yeah.
- I need to get into Jordan's room.

- Where is Matt right now?
- Somewhere in the building.

- Do you want me to call him?
- Nurse? Excuse me, I have to see Jordan.

Hose me, dunk me in alcohol.

Do whatever they did to Karen Silkwood.
What do I do?

You need to wash your hands thoroughly
and wear a mask.

- Wash my hands?
- Yes.

That's what I...
I couldn't have done that three hours ago?

Wanna wash your hands
or stand here and fight with me?

Wash my hands.

- Well, it's a very close toss-up, lady.
- Danny?

I'm washing my hands, then I'm going in
to have Jordan sign some documents.

I want you to witness her signing
and take strict notes while it's happening.

I need to talk to you a second.

Oh, God, come on.

Jordan.

Jordan.

- What happened?
- You're all right, everything's all right.

I can't remember anything.

This'll help.

Oh, my God.

- Hi. Is she all right?
- Yeah.

She's perfect.
She got a nine out of 10 on the Apgar.

- Nine out of 10?
- Yeah.

- What did she miss?
- She didn't grimace.

But we're gonna work on that.

Yeah, this kid isn't gonna be under
a lot of pressure at home.

- You're so beautiful.
- Yeah.

You're so beautiful, baby.

I know.

Hi.

They took this off
before you went into surgery.

Oh, yeah, now I remember everything.

- You didn't change your mind?
- No.

You're an idiot, though.

- What did I do?
- We're both idiots.

- Can you get my bag?
- Your bag?

I had a bag here with me when I came.

- Don't worry.
- Please get my bag.

That would be in the closet.

A terrible chance we took.
I should've had you sign.

- What are you talking about?
- I need you to sign some papers.

I need you to do it now
before we do anything else.

What kind of papers?

Adoption papers.

You...

You drew up adoption papers?

Yeah.

How did you know I was gonna propose?

I didn't, I just hoped.

Since when?

- Remember the first time I met you?
- Yeah.

Since then.

- The biological?
- He consented as soon as I asked.

So, what do you say?
Do you wanna be her father?

I need a pen.

She needs a name.

I'd like to name her
after my grandmother.

- What's your grandmother's name?
- Rebecca.

Rebecca? That's a good name.

Becky.

- Rebecca McDeere.
- No.

Look at what you just signed.

"Rebecca Tripp. "

Thank you.

Oh, boy.

Jordan's out of the woods.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

That's the best news I've heard all night.

- Isn't it?
- Yeah.

Well, let's celebrate by having you go out
and reading a statement of apology.

Why don't I just put on some clown white
and do a minstrel show?

You think this has something to do
with you being black?

Yeah, it's gonna be worse for me,
isn't it?

- Isn't it?
- Yeah.

You don't see a lot of black folk
with flag decals on their cars.

Yeah. No.

There's a general feeling that since
we got our asses kicked for 400 years...

...that loyalty to America
isn't a big topic at the dinner table.

You don't see a lot of us
in Norman Rockwell paintings.

- No.
- We're borderline Americans to some.

- Some people.
- To a lot of people.

Despite the fact
that no group has done more...

...or sacrificed more
for the betterment of this country.

I won't argue with that.

You can't argue with that
because you have a brain.

We'll leave aside that the black population
of the armed services...

...is much higher
than the general population.

I've been sitting here for close
to four hours is that I wanna help.

I think you do wanna help, but
you've been sitting here for four hours...

...because you feel guilty
about Matt and Danny.

- Man, that was five years ago.
- You remembered the story pretty well.

Hey, I wasn't the bad guy.

I gave them every chance.
I gave them every frigging chance.

You know what,
not everything is McCarthyism.

You go back and you ask those guys
that ran the networks...

...and the studios back then,
you go, you ask...

You go back and ask...

You... You can't.

- Jack?
- You can't ask those guys.

We don't know who they were.

We know McCarthy and Cohn.

We know the guys that wrote the list.

We just don't know the guys
who gave a damn.

Hm.

L...

- I thought the sketch was good.
- Matt's sketch?

I didn't have a problem
with the sketch at all.

I always knew Wes was an empty shirt,
but I wasn't.

I didn't have a problem with the sketch.

- Simon?
- Yeah.

You didn't mean what you said tonight.

Any child could see
that you didn't mean what you said tonight.

There is no reason
you have to go out and apologize.

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

I will now go out and apologize.

No. Simon, no.

- No, I wanted to hear you say it.
- You're not doing it.

- It's one less headache, it's no big deal.
- It is.

- I'm apologizing.
- Network's not asking you to do that.

- You got one for free.
- I don't want this one.

- We're all square.
- You'd be giving them apology as theater.

You'd be dancing for them,
it would be a minstrel show.

Oh, like everything's about race?

Okay, you know what I'm gonna do now?
I'm just gonna beat you up.

All right, let's go, you and me.

Double or nothing the one week's pay I lost
because I'm apologizing before sunrise.

The sun is not fully up, you didn't make it,
I owe you the money.

The bet was I'd apologize
before the sun comes up, I owe you money.

The sun is not fully up!

- Do you think it's gonna go back down?
- All right, come here, take your ass kicking.

All right, not in the face, I'm on TV.

- For now maybe. Let's go, come on.
- Something's going on.

- With what?
- Tom's brother.

- What's happening?
- I'm doing it. We'll go with Trask. Get Mary.

- What happened?
- Get Mary to call the people.

- Mary's coming.
- Guy on the news...

- An embedded reporter in Kandahar...
- What happened?

Tomcats were scrambled
out of Bagram an hour ago...

...along with three
Apache attack helicopters.

What does that mean?
What does that mean?

Not talking,
he's been on that phone for 10 minutes.

Scrambled the planes
and sent in the helicopters?

They know the prisoners are dead,
they'll bomb the place.

- Tom?
- That's what it means?

- Tom.
- That's what it means? Tell me.

I will, I just wanted to know
if you wanted to talk to your brother first.

- What?
- Do you wanna talk to your brother?

He's on the phone.

- What?
- Your brother Mark is on the phone.

He, Smith and a very much alive Valdez
are onboard a Black Hawk helicopter...

...part of a Special Forces unit that just
completed a successful rescue mission.

- Anyway, this phone call isn't cheap, so...
- Mark?

It's my brother.

Thank you, God.

I heard that.

What the hell?

It's me, Jell-O-head.

They rescued the guys.

I just heard.

- You know, Jordan's okay.
- Yeah.

Have you been getting high
since our fight at the Catholics dinner?

Yeah.

I like that you didn't lie to me just now.

Well, you know, I like to think that...

You kept that from me?

When you're high,
you keep it from everyone.

Not me. Never me. I'm the one person.

Okay.

I'm the one person. Always.

Okay.

I'm the one person, Matthew.

I love you.

Wait. We can't do this
while you're running the show.

- Why not?
- Because you said so.

You can't be the boss and be with me.

I think I may have been wrong.

- What?
- I think I was wrong.

No, I don't understand those words
coming from your mouth. Say them again.

- Don't be a wise-ass.
- I'm paid to be a wise-ass. Say it again.

- I think I was wrong.
- You think?

- I may have been wrong.
- You're getting there.

- Herb?
- Yeah?

Do you have any problem
if I go out with Harriet?

Huh?

All right.

Dylan, Alex, do you have any problem
with Harry and me being together?

- Nope.
- No.

Samantha, do you have any problem
if I date a cast member?

- Is it me?
- No.

- Then no.
- Jeannie?

Can I still sleep with you?

- No.
- No.

Then, Andy, it is your lucky day.

- What'd I do?
- You get to sleep with Jeannie.

- All right.
- There it is.

Any reason you couldn't have done that
nine months ago?

Hm.

Here we go. Everybody gets a cigar!

Tommy, have a cigar, I got a daughter.

That's fantastic, man. I got a brother.

Well, then, have two cigars.

- Lucy, honey, stop crying, it's over.
I'm not crying.

- What?
- She said she's not crying.

- I was calm throughout the whole ordeal.
- "I was calm throughout the whole ordeal. "

- All right. Look...
- I've given up my rule.

And Harry and I are gonna be together.

I'm sure that comes
as a pretty big shock to everyone.

I'm going to the airport,
I'm going to Germany.

- You're excused.
- Can I go with him?

- Can I go with him?
- No.

- Danny.
- No.

Enough.

We did a good show tonight,
but we can do better.

We can do better.

So we'll start again on Monday
with the full writing staff, Lucy.

This was a hell of a night.

Everybody go home, get some sleep.
Be healthy.

- I will see you on Monday. Good night.
- Good night, everybody.

- Good night.
- Good night.

- Good night.
- Good night.

Hey, I'm all for it,
but not in front of me, okay?

I'm gonna go grab some stuff
in my dressing room.

Mazel tov.

Gesundheit.

Unbelievable.

- What?
- Everything.

You think you and Harriet
will stay together this time?

Till we break up again.

But at least we'll always come back.

One of these days,
you might wanna try the whole process...

...under the same roof with less time
between makeup scenes.

One of these days.

Thanks for keeping everyone
together tonight.

- I'm going back to the hospital.
- Okay.

- Where you going?
- My office.

- Go home.
- No.

- Matt, go home.
- I'm feeling good.

You gotta go to sleep.

- You're not going to sleep.
- I'm a father.

Are you gonna be holding that
over my head till I'm a father?

Just go home.

No, if we'll do a better show next week,
I'm gonna need a head start.

- All right.
- All right.

Hey, Matthew,
don't take this the wrong way...

...but I love you.

- Okay.
- Did you take it the wrong way?

I took it to mean
that you're gay and you want me.

Good.

I love you too, brother.

Okay.

This is true.

I'm gonna make a friend out of you yet.
