Switched at Birth (2011–2017): Season 2, Episode 19 - What Goes Up Must Come Down - full transcript
Bay and Ty go on a camping trip, while Daphne stays home.
Previously on "Switched at Birth"...
This is Angelo Sorrento.
Barbara's partner in the restaurant.
Nice to meet you.
Do you think you could find
out if he's seeing anyone?
Sure. I'll ask.
Turns out Angelo is married.
He just doesn't wear a wedding ring.
___
I gotta be honest.
I've had a couple dreams about you.
He told me that his wife
is beginning to suspect.
Jace: He's responding.
- No way.
- (Phone dings)
We both decided to send that text to Coto.
The only difference between you and me
is I don't lie to myself about who I am
or what I'm willing to do
to fight for what is right.
We all heard. It's the whole unit.
What's the whole unit?
The redeployment.
Back to Afghanistan.
End of the month. They're
sending a few of us back
to train the new police.
(Rock music playing)
* me and my big friends... *
Howdy, soldier.
Hey there.
Thought we were meeting up tonight.
Yeah, but I have this really great idea
and it felt kind of pressing.
All right.
What's up?
So this whole redeployment thing.
I've been looking up ways
that you could maybe get out of it.
I'm not gonna do that.
Okay, just hear me out.
There's injury, of course,
but you're a picture of health,
so that's not gonna work;
P.T.S.D., which you don't have;
or you could object conscientiously.
- Bay...
- You already went over there,
and it was bad for you.
Why do you have to go back?
Because I made a commitment.
All right? I'm gonna be fine.
You don't know that.
Well, that's just kind of the deal
when you're with somebody in the military.
But I was reading about some guys
who got a few politicians to sign a letter
so that they could get
discharged honorably,
and I was thinking maybe
we could talk to my dad.
No! Absolutely not.
Okay.
Look, hey.
Can we just try and enjoy
the time that we have left?
Can we do that?
Yeah.
You're right. I'm sorry.
I want that, too.
All right.
Are you off tomorrow?
Yep.
Okay. Well, I was thinking
maybe we'd go up to Clinton Lake?
Do some camping and hiking?
That kind of thing?
I mean, you go camping right?
- You're into that?
- Totally.
- Uh-huh.
- We have a lake house.
We used to go all the time.
Well, I'm not really talking about a cabin
with central air.
I'm talking about sleeping bags, tents.
Whatevs. I'm in.
What about your parents?
They gonna be cool with it?
It's just a matter of
asking the right parent.
Hey.
Where have you been?
It was the weekend.
No, I mean why haven't you
been returning my texts?
I know we had a fight,
but that's just a milestone.
The first fight. It just means it's real.
I don't know.
I just have to process.
Perhaps after we get off,
we can go somewhere and process together?
Maybe some grand larceny?
It's a joke.
I'm already late.
Hey.
Hey. I haven't
seen you since...
Did you tell anyone about me and Coto?
No. Why?
He thinks someone knows.
He's kind of freaking out.
People gossip. If someone saw something
or there's a rumor going around,
it's not your fault. Just let it pass.
He'll cool down.
Yeah. You're right.
And thank you for being there for me
through all the drama.
Sure thing.
John?
Yeah? (Grunts)
Did you get demoted?
(Laughs) Let me tell you something:
any boss afraid of getting his hands dirty
has no business being the boss.
Well, I finished measuring
your waiting room and your...
Are those new hubcaps?
Yep, tires too.
You really didn't have to do that.
I mean, a free car wash is one thing...
Regina, the old tires were shot.
They weren't safe to drive on.
No big deal.
Thank you.
It's very sweet.
I should get started on these.
Oh, well, after you.
- Thanks.
- Yep.
There you go.
It's all yours.
- Thanks.
- Bye.
Bay, is this yours or mine?
Um...
Oh, yours. I don't pad.
(Chuckles) Oh yes.
You get those blessings from Angelo's mom.
Remind me to thank him.
Actually that's weird. Don't.
(Chuckles)
That however is mine.
Oh. Do you mind?
- Not at all.
- Thank you.
So...
I was thinking about going
camping with Ty tomorrow.
Like... alone?
We're being safe,
and Ty and I really care about each other.
And I'm gonna be away at college in a year.
And I really think you should trust me.
Are you planning on
telling John and Kathryn?
What do you think?
Then you need to ask me
if you can go camping with some friends.
What?
Ask me if you can go camping with friends.
That way when John and Kathryn ask me
where you said where you were going,
I won't be lying.
Can I go camping with some friends?
Which ones?
Mary Beth, Mac and Ty.
That's a nice group.
Okay. You can go.
Just watch out for the Poison Ivy, huh?
Poison Ivy. Sure. (Chuckles)
Oh, Daphne.
Daphne. Great news.
Tell me you got the copier to staple sort?
No. Senator Coto is starting
an intern of the year program.
It's sort of his way of honoring the top
intern in the building
for a summer of hard work.
Uh-huh.
There's some pretty substantial
scholarship money attached for the winner.
He wants to interview you tomorrow.
Oh.
9:00 am. His office.
And whether or not you win the scholarship,
it is great that you made such a
strong impression on the Senator.
Nice work.
And I'll put aunt minty with
all the girls from the office.
She'll probably talk their
ear off about Mary Kay,
but what the hell? A couple of them
could use some freshening up, right?
Aunt Minty is Nikki's dad's little sister.
Sounds great.
And then Lenny is the
oldest of the Papagus boys.
He'll be a little quiet at first,
until he has his first highball.
- Right, Nikki?
- Was dad selling drugs?
What?
Was dad shot because he was selling drugs?
Why would you ask that?
It's all my fault.
We went to see the guy who...
The guy who killed dad.
He said he was buying drugs from dad.
You took her to a prison?
Nikki was really upset, so I
thought it would be a good idea...
So was he?
I'm not gonna answer that.
Oh my God.
Why would you take her there?
I'm so sorry.
You knew about this?
Nikki, he was a good father.
He just...
I can't believe this.
- Hey.
- All the drivers were doing it
just to get through their shifts.
And then he ended up with a couple extra,
and one thing led to...
I can't believe you.
I didn't approve of it, okay?
And by the time I found out,
he was so far into it he couldn't get out.
He thought we needed the money.
We did need the money.
Nikki, hey.
You know, I've thought about
telling her a million times.
I don't know that it would
have gone any different.
Honey?
What are you still doing at home?
Shouldn't you be at work?
I'm not feeling very well.
Is it your head?
It's kind of everything.
Oh.
Huh.
No fever.
(Coughs)
I think I know what it is.
You do?
Bay used to get it all the time,
especially when she didn't do her homework.
It's called "faking it syndrome."
(Sighs)
- Was it the cough?
- Yeah.
I think maybe next time you
should go with a stomach ailment.
It's okay.
You deserve a day off.
It's just because...
No, you don't have to explain.
Tell you what.
I'll call the office
and tell them that you're not coming in,
and you and I will have a spa day.
- Really?
- Yeah.
I could use a treat.
I think a facial and a massage
are just what the doctor ordered.
Don't you?
I would love that.
You get dressed. I'll call the spa.
(Sighs)
Hey. I thought you were at work.
Didn't go.
(Breathing heavily)
Hey, what's going on?
I don't want to wait anymore.
What?
I... I can't believe I'm saying this,
but are you sure?
Because I know how much this means to you.
It doesn't mean anything anymore.
Nikki, what are you...
I went and I talked to
Reverend Steve today.
Do you know what he said?
That I'm closer to God
right now than I've ever been.
Well, maybe he meant if you were...
God is nowhere.
He wasn't there when my
dad was selling drugs.
He wasn't there when my
mother lied to me about it,
and he definitely wasn't
there when that guy...
Hey hey hey.
You're obviously upset.
Toby, I don't...
I don't want to get married in that church.
We don't have to decide anything right now.
I mean, there's so much going on,
let's just take a second.
(Sighs)
So I'm thinking of getting a hydro-facial.
Is that the one with the machine
that sucks the stuff out of your face?
- Yes.
- (Indistinct arguing)
What's wrong?
(Arguing continues)
Nothing.
I thought I heard something,
but it's just the A.C.
(Sighs)
Whoa.
- You okay?
- Oh yeah.
Nothing but nailing it back here.
You're doing great.
As long as I don't have
to pee in a hole, I'm good.
(Chuckles)
Which I'm guessing I do.
(Sighs)
Oh, almost there.
Almost where?
What do you think?
I think it's fun to look at.
(Chuckles)
Yeah, it's pretty sweet, huh?
Sure, if you're into that sort of thing.
We used to do some
stuff like this in basic.
All right. Helmet, gloves...
Carabineers...
And rope.
(Chuckles nervously)
I thought that thing was full of snacks.
You brought all this stuff?
Yeah. I wanted to surprise you.
Well, I'm surprised.
It's totally safe.
You're gonna be in a
harness the whole time.
And I'll be down here with the rope.
How about I watch you do it?
Bay, you really need to...
learn to leave your comfort zone.
Why? Why do I have to do that?
You kind of sound like
a princess right now.
Okay. Low blow.
Do not play the "just 'cause
I live in Mission Hills
I'm a princess" card.
Well then, prove me wrong.
What is this? Some sort
of military mind game?
I don't have the Kennish
gene for athletics, okay?
I just don't.
Look. You can tell yourself that
and you can keep making it
true the rest of your life,
or you can redefine yourself.
(Breathes heavily )
You're gonna feel so awesome
when it's done.
Okay?
Fine.
All right. Let's get you harnessed.
(Door opens)
How was it?
Amazing.
Thank you so much.
And how's your fake headache?
It was that fake cough,
but it's all gone now.
(Chuckles)
I've missed you so much.
You've been so busy at the office
and with your new guy...
who I haven't met, by the way.
His name is Jace?
Is that right?
Yeah.
What's he like?
Um, confident.
Smart.
Almost too smart for his own good.
Is it serious?
Well, we...
connect on politics.
And we have a lot of the same values.
But?
Diana: Kathryn?
Diana.
Diana, this is my daughter, Daphne.
Daphne, this is Diana Coto,
Senator Coto's wife.
It's nice to meet you.
You too.
I've heard about you.
Oh.
You know what? We're playing hooky.
John doesn't even know,
so don't rat us out.
Of course not.
Chip's been pretty crazed at work himself.
I think there's something brewing.
I'm gonna use the ladies' room.
I'll be right back.
I bet it's nice having a girl.
I have two boys
and they drive me nuts.
It is nice.
Does she tell you a lot?
Uh, I don't know.
Sometimes. It's a tricky age.
Does she ever talk about work?
Sometimes.
Do you ever...
hear anything?
Has she ever mentioned Chip?
I don't think she knows him very well...
I mean, I don't even know him.
I've seen him act like this before...
taking the dogs on
extra walks after dinner,
irritable all the time,
and I catch him in little lies
about nothing.
His Chief of Staff avoids my eye
any time I stop by.
There's something going on. I can feel it.
It's an intern.
You think Chip is having
an affair with an intern?
It happened before, years ago.
She was 24. She worshipped him.
You know he can't resist that.
We saw a therapist.
I thought we worked through it.
Well, all marriages
have their ups and downs.
Can you just ask Daphne?
You know, see if she knows anything?
You know, girls talk to
each other at that age.
(Sighs)
Oh God.
That was awful.
I'm sorry. Forget it.
Of course you can't.
I'm gonna get going.
It was nice seeing you.
Nice seeing you, too.
(Sighs)
Hi.
May I help you?
I certainly hope so.
John Kennish.
Kennish Car Wash.
Yes, the very same.
I need to speak to you
about Regina Vasquez.
Is there a problem?
Yes.
You see, Regina has
done such an amazing job
that my Senate office looks
like a dump by comparison.
I am so sorry to hear that.
She's left me no choice
but to hire her to fix it.
So how do I get that started?
You can write the address down here
and then we will schedule
a walk-through of the space.
Fantastic.
Dean?
Could you get these
samples to Mr. Sorrento?
Thank you.
Angelo Sorrento?
Yes.
We're doing his restaurant
over in the power and light district.
Do you know him?
Well, he's a member of the family,
sort of,
being married to Regina and all.
Okey-doke. That takes care of that.
Thank you.
Well, thanks again.
Of course.
- (Door opens)
- (Sighs)
Is that tight enough?
I have no idea.
You comfortable?
Oh, never better.
Okay.
All set.
Up you go.
Everything's gonna be fine.
I got you.
There's a special place in
hell for boyfriends like you.
(Chuckles)
Attagirl.
(Breathing heavily)
Ty: Take it nice and slow.
There you go.
All right.
Good job.
You're doing good.
That's the way to do it, Bay.
I took the day off,
but then Chip Coto's wife showed up.
She must know something.
You're being paranoid.
She doesn't know anything.
It's a coincidence.
Listen, you have to get back here.
Mark was just here asking for you.
You missed your interview with Coto.
That was the point.
You cannot panic or alter your routine.
Now that is how people get caught.
I know it's scary.
But you have to get good at this.
You mean good at lying?
Yes.
We know why we did what we did,
but we do not want to be in a position
of having to explain ourselves.
I have to go.
Did Diana leave?
Yes. Why?
Nothing.
Wait, are you okay?
Yeah.
What's going on at work?
Is something making you feel uncomfortable?
Is Cchip Coto hitting on you?
What?! No!
- Are you involved with him?
- God no! Who told you that?
Nobody. It's just...
Kathryn, that's gross.
Why would you think that?
Well, because of what
happened with the chef.
Oh my God. No.
I have to take a shower
and then go to work.
There's something I have to do.
I'll just see you at home.

- (Softly) Hi.
___
Melody.
Wow.
Your parents should have
just named you "Irony."
You know, because Melody
is music and you're...
Sorry.
___
Well, talk about irony.
Who's idea was it to name that woman Joy?
(Laughs)
I'm sure this is all really weird for you.
___
Okay.
Who's ready to get turned on?
___
Emmett. It's nice to meet you.
You want one of these bad boys too?
Get you all wired up.
___
Yeah. My own dad doesn't want one.
Doesn't trust them.
His own son programs the things,
and he refuses. What are you gonna do?
___
Wow. Your ex?
Cameron, are you nuts?
What are you thinking?
No offense, Debbie.
None taken.
No, but seriously.
I'm very impressed that you're here today.
Today can be a hard day,
and it's very cool of you.
___
___
(Chuckles)
Ready to get started?
(Exhales)
Okay.
That's good.
There you go, Bay.
Rung by rung.
Take it nice and slow.
You're almost there. A few more.
Good job.
You're doing good.
(Panting)
All right. There you go.
Breathe.
(Creaking)
(Chuckles)
I did it!
Okay. Well that kind of sucked,
but you know what? It
is kind of nice up here.
Oh... Ahh.
Ha. Okay.
I saw it. How do I get down?
You jump.
- What?
- You jump,
and I belay you down.
I'm not gonna jump.
I'm gonna catch your weight, okay?
I'll lower you down.
Uh, no.
I'm gonna use the ladder.
No no no no! Don't.
That's actually more dangerous, okay?
The rope, it can get caught in the rungs.
You gotta jump.
Uh, that is not gonna happen.
You can't stay up there forever.
Yeah, I can see that. Thanks.
Okay, I'm...
I'm gonna pull you down, all right?
Wait. What do you mean by that?
Take the rope and position
it behind your head.
Okay, good. All right.
Now you just stay relaxed.
I need you to step off.
I'm gonna take your weight.
Okay.
I've got you, okay? You just stay relaxed.
(Breathes heavily)
(Screams)
- (Screaming)
- Hey hey!
Bay! Stop!
Stop moving around!
Come on. Relax!
- Bay!
- (Grunts)
Bay, are you okay?
Get this thing off of me.
Come here. Come here.
(Grunts)
All right. All right.
What the hell was that?!
Was this some kind of test?
I don't know. This is just like...
something you do when you want
to see what somebody's made of.
I didn't think you were gonna get hurt.
So it was a test.
Of what? To see how tough I am?
You know, it's going to be
really hard when I'm gone.
Don't you think I know that?
What, was this to see how
well I would handle it?
Do you think I'm gonna
cheat on you or something?
- Is this about Emmett?
- Maybe.
(Angrily) Seriously?
Don't talk to me. Don't follow me.
- Just leave me alone!
- (Clatters)
- (Door opens)
- (Regina sighs)
- Sorry. I had to go two places...
- (Door closes)
To get soy.
There you go.
You're not wearing your wedding ring.
What?
I remember you said
that Angelo didn't wear one.
Is that something you
guys decided together?
Um...
John Kennish came by today
to rave about all the work
you're doing on his car wash.
He didn't seem to know that
your marriage was a secret.
I'm so sorry.
You let me make a fool of myself.
No, you didn't.
I didn't know what to do.
I mean, I wanted this job so badly,
I knew I needed to bring in clients,
and Angelo had that restaurant.
But I should have said something,
and I'm sorry I didn't.
Look, well,
I probably stepped on the third rail,
asking you to hook me up with your client.
Look, let's just put all this
aside, okay? We'll start over.
Full time?
Yes.
Really?
Yeah.
Oh!
I'm trying to be cool here,
but I'm really excited.
Okay, just one question.
John Kennish.
Mm-hmm?
Is he married?
Um...
Regina. I'm kidding.
(Chuckles)
But I got you.
Yes, you did.
(Sighs)
Hi, it's Bay. Leave a message.
You've got to be kidding me.
(Shouting) Bay?
Just come back. It's gonna be dark soon.
I'm sorry.
(Normal voice) Just come back.
(Sighs)
Can you hear anything now?
(Keyboard clicking)
What about now?
- Okay.
- (Keyboard clicking)
Just try to relax, okay?
I'm gonna ask Debbie to come over
and start talking to you in
a regular tone of voice, okay?
Just let me know when you hear anything.
Okay?
Whenever you're ready.
Hi, sweetheart.
This is me talking.
This is my voice.
Can you hear me?
Debbie: Can you hear anything at all?
Can you?
This is me talking.
Can you hear me?
Can you?
You do? You hear what I'm saying?
(Both chuckle)
This is sound, darling.
This is it.
Say something. Try talking.
Hello?
(Chuckles)
I can hear that.
I hear my tongue.
You sound great.
This is fantastic.
It is going perfectly.
Hello? Hello hello.
Hello. La la la.
I can't believe it.
- I'm so proud of you.
- Oh God.
___
- (Cameron speaks, laughs)
- (Debbie laughs)
I was a little worried
when I heard you were sick.
I guess you can't keep
the Kennishes down, huh?
Speaking of, how's your dad?
Much better, thanks.
This morning he actually ate tofurkey.
(Chuckles) Good.
Well, as you know,
I'm considering you for intern of the year,
and I'm asking everyone the same question.
Do you feel like you've made
a difference this summer?
Well...
to be honest, I mostly just took this job
so I could spend more time with John.
I'm not really interested in politics.
Really?
I have to say I'm surprised to hear that.
I mean, I read about
what happened at Carlton.
Well, that was different.
I mean, it's my school.
You know, I've interviewed
a dozen interns today,
and you're the only one who
isn't shamelessly self-promoting.
Why is that?
I just mean...
that I've been distracted a lot lately
with my dad's heart attack and everything.
I mean, let's face it... this job's
really just getting people lunch
and doing whatever needs to
be done around the office.
I'm a whiz with the copy machine.
Oh.
It's funny you should say that actually.
I found this article...
on abstinence-only education in my inbox
the day before the education vote.
Somebody said they saw you
distributing it around the office?
I distribute a lot of material,
not just stuff for my dad.
Hmm.
Well, that's too bad.
This article was the
reason I changed my vote.
It was?
Well sure. I mean, it's
hard to argue with the facts.
Right?
Took a lot of flack from my own party,
but I always say it's important
to vote with your conscience.
You understand that's what I did, right?
Yes.
Of course you do.
I can tell you really get how
things work around here, Daphne.
You know, I'm not really
sure I'm following.
I think you are.
You know, politics can be a dirty business.
I mean, people get entrenched
along ideological lines,
they end up doing things
that can ruin lives.
And when that happens, it's natural
for people to want to retaliate.
And that can get really ugly,
politically speaking of course.
Of course.
And there are always consequences.
(Keys jingle)
(Gasps)
What happened?
Coto knows everything.
He said that?
Not directly, but he made it pretty clear
he's gonna retaliate somehow.
He's bluffing.
I don't think so.
Even if he's not, we
still have the upper hand.
He's a senator who changed his vote
'cause he got his intern pregnant.
We're just two kids
who sent a text message.
We'll get a slap on the wrist,
but his career will be over.
What are you doing?
I'm telling him that.
Are you insane?
I don't know who's
scaring me more right now,
you or him.
I'm not gonna let him win.
Win?
My God, I don't care about winning.
I just want to stay out of jail.
We have an opportunity here to
make some real change with this guy,
to keep directing him towards votes
that will actually help people.
If we let him scare us off,
things will go right
back to the way they were.
Come on.
David never gets to slay Goliath,
not in real life.
I'm sick of lying to everyone.
This is not who I am
and you and I are done.
(Sighs)
Can I have my phone back?
I'm sorry.
Yeah. Me too.
What are you doing?
I'm sending that text to Coto.
Jace, please don't do that.
You're not my girlfriend.
I don't have to listen to you anymore.
(Clicking)
Oh. Hi, honey.
Hey, can I talk to you for a second?
It's kind of important.
Yeah. Of course.
Um...
things between Nikki and me
have been...
changing.
Oh.
Nothing bad, just...
we're rethinking some things.
And I was wondering...
you think it's too late to have
the wedding here at the house
instead of at a church?
Oh. Uh...
I mean, I know it's a
lot more work for us...
well, and for you, obviously...
but we'll keep it small,
just family and just a few friends.
Yeah. I think that would be lovely.
You think dad would be okay with it?
He'd be as happy about it as I am.
Well, cool.
Great, thanks.
I'm gonna go call Nikki and tell her.
(Grunting)
What the hell?!
I'm not talking to you.
Well, so you just disappear
on me for two hours?
I wanted to be by myself.
I thought you were dead.
Okay? Dead.
Well, now you know how I felt
when your freaking helicopter went down
and I didn't know if you were on it.
And how I'm gonna feel
every day when you're gone!
Okay.
But I...
shouldn't have done that to you.
I'm sorry.
And I think I hurt my ankle, like bad.
Ow.
How bad?
Like I think I have to go to an E.R.
Let me see.
Does that hurt?
Mm-hmm.
- Right there?
- Aah!
All right. All right.
Hang on.
I'll get this stuff later.
Come on.
I am so sorry.
(Chuckles) It's not that bad.
People are gonna ask me how it happened,
and every time I tell the story
that platform's gonna get higher.
Well, you looked pretty badass.
Right.
Still never doing that again. Ever.
It's cool.
I like you the way you are.
Then you should treat me like it.
I know.
And I was thinking...
let's talk to your dad.
Really?
Yeah.
You know, maybe he can
help me get stationed closer
or stay put or something.
(Door closes)
(Knocks)
Am I interrupting?
I'm reading about medicaid adjustments.
I am dying for someone to interrupt me.
(Chuckles)
I just wanted to let you know
that you are looking at K&D's newest
full-time design associate.
Well, that is great news. You earned it.
I'm sure your rave about the
car wash put it over the top.
I just told the truth.
If there's anything else I can do...
- There is.
- Name it.
You can stop.
I appreciate everything,
but you and I are now karmically even.
I hope I'm not the reason
you haven't moved back here.
No.
It was a lot of things.
Okay. I just...
if you wanted to move
back, that would be fine.
Thank you.
I appreciate that.

This is Angelo Sorrento.
Barbara's partner in the restaurant.
Nice to meet you.
Do you think you could find
out if he's seeing anyone?
Sure. I'll ask.
Turns out Angelo is married.
He just doesn't wear a wedding ring.
___
I gotta be honest.
I've had a couple dreams about you.
He told me that his wife
is beginning to suspect.
Jace: He's responding.
- No way.
- (Phone dings)
We both decided to send that text to Coto.
The only difference between you and me
is I don't lie to myself about who I am
or what I'm willing to do
to fight for what is right.
We all heard. It's the whole unit.
What's the whole unit?
The redeployment.
Back to Afghanistan.
End of the month. They're
sending a few of us back
to train the new police.
(Rock music playing)
* me and my big friends... *
Howdy, soldier.
Hey there.
Thought we were meeting up tonight.
Yeah, but I have this really great idea
and it felt kind of pressing.
All right.
What's up?
So this whole redeployment thing.
I've been looking up ways
that you could maybe get out of it.
I'm not gonna do that.
Okay, just hear me out.
There's injury, of course,
but you're a picture of health,
so that's not gonna work;
P.T.S.D., which you don't have;
or you could object conscientiously.
- Bay...
- You already went over there,
and it was bad for you.
Why do you have to go back?
Because I made a commitment.
All right? I'm gonna be fine.
You don't know that.
Well, that's just kind of the deal
when you're with somebody in the military.
But I was reading about some guys
who got a few politicians to sign a letter
so that they could get
discharged honorably,
and I was thinking maybe
we could talk to my dad.
No! Absolutely not.
Okay.
Look, hey.
Can we just try and enjoy
the time that we have left?
Can we do that?
Yeah.
You're right. I'm sorry.
I want that, too.
All right.
Are you off tomorrow?
Yep.
Okay. Well, I was thinking
maybe we'd go up to Clinton Lake?
Do some camping and hiking?
That kind of thing?
I mean, you go camping right?
- You're into that?
- Totally.
- Uh-huh.
- We have a lake house.
We used to go all the time.
Well, I'm not really talking about a cabin
with central air.
I'm talking about sleeping bags, tents.
Whatevs. I'm in.
What about your parents?
They gonna be cool with it?
It's just a matter of
asking the right parent.
Hey.
Where have you been?
It was the weekend.
No, I mean why haven't you
been returning my texts?
I know we had a fight,
but that's just a milestone.
The first fight. It just means it's real.
I don't know.
I just have to process.
Perhaps after we get off,
we can go somewhere and process together?
Maybe some grand larceny?
It's a joke.
I'm already late.
Hey.
Hey. I haven't
seen you since...
Did you tell anyone about me and Coto?
No. Why?
He thinks someone knows.
He's kind of freaking out.
People gossip. If someone saw something
or there's a rumor going around,
it's not your fault. Just let it pass.
He'll cool down.
Yeah. You're right.
And thank you for being there for me
through all the drama.
Sure thing.
John?
Yeah? (Grunts)
Did you get demoted?
(Laughs) Let me tell you something:
any boss afraid of getting his hands dirty
has no business being the boss.
Well, I finished measuring
your waiting room and your...
Are those new hubcaps?
Yep, tires too.
You really didn't have to do that.
I mean, a free car wash is one thing...
Regina, the old tires were shot.
They weren't safe to drive on.
No big deal.
Thank you.
It's very sweet.
I should get started on these.
Oh, well, after you.
- Thanks.
- Yep.
There you go.
It's all yours.
- Thanks.
- Bye.
Bay, is this yours or mine?
Um...
Oh, yours. I don't pad.
(Chuckles) Oh yes.
You get those blessings from Angelo's mom.
Remind me to thank him.
Actually that's weird. Don't.
(Chuckles)
That however is mine.
Oh. Do you mind?
- Not at all.
- Thank you.
So...
I was thinking about going
camping with Ty tomorrow.
Like... alone?
We're being safe,
and Ty and I really care about each other.
And I'm gonna be away at college in a year.
And I really think you should trust me.
Are you planning on
telling John and Kathryn?
What do you think?
Then you need to ask me
if you can go camping with some friends.
What?
Ask me if you can go camping with friends.
That way when John and Kathryn ask me
where you said where you were going,
I won't be lying.
Can I go camping with some friends?
Which ones?
Mary Beth, Mac and Ty.
That's a nice group.
Okay. You can go.
Just watch out for the Poison Ivy, huh?
Poison Ivy. Sure. (Chuckles)
Oh, Daphne.
Daphne. Great news.
Tell me you got the copier to staple sort?
No. Senator Coto is starting
an intern of the year program.
It's sort of his way of honoring the top
intern in the building
for a summer of hard work.
Uh-huh.
There's some pretty substantial
scholarship money attached for the winner.
He wants to interview you tomorrow.
Oh.
9:00 am. His office.
And whether or not you win the scholarship,
it is great that you made such a
strong impression on the Senator.
Nice work.
And I'll put aunt minty with
all the girls from the office.
She'll probably talk their
ear off about Mary Kay,
but what the hell? A couple of them
could use some freshening up, right?
Aunt Minty is Nikki's dad's little sister.
Sounds great.
And then Lenny is the
oldest of the Papagus boys.
He'll be a little quiet at first,
until he has his first highball.
- Right, Nikki?
- Was dad selling drugs?
What?
Was dad shot because he was selling drugs?
Why would you ask that?
It's all my fault.
We went to see the guy who...
The guy who killed dad.
He said he was buying drugs from dad.
You took her to a prison?
Nikki was really upset, so I
thought it would be a good idea...
So was he?
I'm not gonna answer that.
Oh my God.
Why would you take her there?
I'm so sorry.
You knew about this?
Nikki, he was a good father.
He just...
I can't believe this.
- Hey.
- All the drivers were doing it
just to get through their shifts.
And then he ended up with a couple extra,
and one thing led to...
I can't believe you.
I didn't approve of it, okay?
And by the time I found out,
he was so far into it he couldn't get out.
He thought we needed the money.
We did need the money.
Nikki, hey.
You know, I've thought about
telling her a million times.
I don't know that it would
have gone any different.
Honey?
What are you still doing at home?
Shouldn't you be at work?
I'm not feeling very well.
Is it your head?
It's kind of everything.
Oh.
Huh.
No fever.
(Coughs)
I think I know what it is.
You do?
Bay used to get it all the time,
especially when she didn't do her homework.
It's called "faking it syndrome."
(Sighs)
- Was it the cough?
- Yeah.
I think maybe next time you
should go with a stomach ailment.
It's okay.
You deserve a day off.
It's just because...
No, you don't have to explain.
Tell you what.
I'll call the office
and tell them that you're not coming in,
and you and I will have a spa day.
- Really?
- Yeah.
I could use a treat.
I think a facial and a massage
are just what the doctor ordered.
Don't you?
I would love that.
You get dressed. I'll call the spa.
(Sighs)
Hey. I thought you were at work.
Didn't go.
(Breathing heavily)
Hey, what's going on?
I don't want to wait anymore.
What?
I... I can't believe I'm saying this,
but are you sure?
Because I know how much this means to you.
It doesn't mean anything anymore.
Nikki, what are you...
I went and I talked to
Reverend Steve today.
Do you know what he said?
That I'm closer to God
right now than I've ever been.
Well, maybe he meant if you were...
God is nowhere.
He wasn't there when my
dad was selling drugs.
He wasn't there when my
mother lied to me about it,
and he definitely wasn't
there when that guy...
Hey hey hey.
You're obviously upset.
Toby, I don't...
I don't want to get married in that church.
We don't have to decide anything right now.
I mean, there's so much going on,
let's just take a second.
(Sighs)
So I'm thinking of getting a hydro-facial.
Is that the one with the machine
that sucks the stuff out of your face?
- Yes.
- (Indistinct arguing)
What's wrong?
(Arguing continues)
Nothing.
I thought I heard something,
but it's just the A.C.
(Sighs)
Whoa.
- You okay?
- Oh yeah.
Nothing but nailing it back here.
You're doing great.
As long as I don't have
to pee in a hole, I'm good.
(Chuckles)
Which I'm guessing I do.
(Sighs)
Oh, almost there.
Almost where?
What do you think?
I think it's fun to look at.
(Chuckles)
Yeah, it's pretty sweet, huh?
Sure, if you're into that sort of thing.
We used to do some
stuff like this in basic.
All right. Helmet, gloves...
Carabineers...
And rope.
(Chuckles nervously)
I thought that thing was full of snacks.
You brought all this stuff?
Yeah. I wanted to surprise you.
Well, I'm surprised.
It's totally safe.
You're gonna be in a
harness the whole time.
And I'll be down here with the rope.
How about I watch you do it?
Bay, you really need to...
learn to leave your comfort zone.
Why? Why do I have to do that?
You kind of sound like
a princess right now.
Okay. Low blow.
Do not play the "just 'cause
I live in Mission Hills
I'm a princess" card.
Well then, prove me wrong.
What is this? Some sort
of military mind game?
I don't have the Kennish
gene for athletics, okay?
I just don't.
Look. You can tell yourself that
and you can keep making it
true the rest of your life,
or you can redefine yourself.
(Breathes heavily )
You're gonna feel so awesome
when it's done.
Okay?
Fine.
All right. Let's get you harnessed.
(Door opens)
How was it?
Amazing.
Thank you so much.
And how's your fake headache?
It was that fake cough,
but it's all gone now.
(Chuckles)
I've missed you so much.
You've been so busy at the office
and with your new guy...
who I haven't met, by the way.
His name is Jace?
Is that right?
Yeah.
What's he like?
Um, confident.
Smart.
Almost too smart for his own good.
Is it serious?
Well, we...
connect on politics.
And we have a lot of the same values.
But?
Diana: Kathryn?
Diana.
Diana, this is my daughter, Daphne.
Daphne, this is Diana Coto,
Senator Coto's wife.
It's nice to meet you.
You too.
I've heard about you.
Oh.
You know what? We're playing hooky.
John doesn't even know,
so don't rat us out.
Of course not.
Chip's been pretty crazed at work himself.
I think there's something brewing.
I'm gonna use the ladies' room.
I'll be right back.
I bet it's nice having a girl.
I have two boys
and they drive me nuts.
It is nice.
Does she tell you a lot?
Uh, I don't know.
Sometimes. It's a tricky age.
Does she ever talk about work?
Sometimes.
Do you ever...
hear anything?
Has she ever mentioned Chip?
I don't think she knows him very well...
I mean, I don't even know him.
I've seen him act like this before...
taking the dogs on
extra walks after dinner,
irritable all the time,
and I catch him in little lies
about nothing.
His Chief of Staff avoids my eye
any time I stop by.
There's something going on. I can feel it.
It's an intern.
You think Chip is having
an affair with an intern?
It happened before, years ago.
She was 24. She worshipped him.
You know he can't resist that.
We saw a therapist.
I thought we worked through it.
Well, all marriages
have their ups and downs.
Can you just ask Daphne?
You know, see if she knows anything?
You know, girls talk to
each other at that age.
(Sighs)
Oh God.
That was awful.
I'm sorry. Forget it.
Of course you can't.
I'm gonna get going.
It was nice seeing you.
Nice seeing you, too.
(Sighs)
Hi.
May I help you?
I certainly hope so.
John Kennish.
Kennish Car Wash.
Yes, the very same.
I need to speak to you
about Regina Vasquez.
Is there a problem?
Yes.
You see, Regina has
done such an amazing job
that my Senate office looks
like a dump by comparison.
I am so sorry to hear that.
She's left me no choice
but to hire her to fix it.
So how do I get that started?
You can write the address down here
and then we will schedule
a walk-through of the space.
Fantastic.
Dean?
Could you get these
samples to Mr. Sorrento?
Thank you.
Angelo Sorrento?
Yes.
We're doing his restaurant
over in the power and light district.
Do you know him?
Well, he's a member of the family,
sort of,
being married to Regina and all.
Okey-doke. That takes care of that.
Thank you.
Well, thanks again.
Of course.
- (Door opens)
- (Sighs)
Is that tight enough?
I have no idea.
You comfortable?
Oh, never better.
Okay.
All set.
Up you go.
Everything's gonna be fine.
I got you.
There's a special place in
hell for boyfriends like you.
(Chuckles)
Attagirl.
(Breathing heavily)
Ty: Take it nice and slow.
There you go.
All right.
Good job.
You're doing good.
That's the way to do it, Bay.
I took the day off,
but then Chip Coto's wife showed up.
She must know something.
You're being paranoid.
She doesn't know anything.
It's a coincidence.
Listen, you have to get back here.
Mark was just here asking for you.
You missed your interview with Coto.
That was the point.
You cannot panic or alter your routine.
Now that is how people get caught.
I know it's scary.
But you have to get good at this.
You mean good at lying?
Yes.
We know why we did what we did,
but we do not want to be in a position
of having to explain ourselves.
I have to go.
Did Diana leave?
Yes. Why?
Nothing.
Wait, are you okay?
Yeah.
What's going on at work?
Is something making you feel uncomfortable?
Is Cchip Coto hitting on you?
What?! No!
- Are you involved with him?
- God no! Who told you that?
Nobody. It's just...
Kathryn, that's gross.
Why would you think that?
Well, because of what
happened with the chef.
Oh my God. No.
I have to take a shower
and then go to work.
There's something I have to do.
I'll just see you at home.

Melody.
Wow.
Your parents should have
just named you "Irony."
You know, because Melody
is music and you're...
Sorry.
___
Well, talk about irony.
Who's idea was it to name that woman Joy?
(Laughs)
I'm sure this is all really weird for you.
___
Okay.
Who's ready to get turned on?
___
Emmett. It's nice to meet you.
You want one of these bad boys too?
Get you all wired up.
___
Yeah. My own dad doesn't want one.
Doesn't trust them.
His own son programs the things,
and he refuses. What are you gonna do?
___
Wow. Your ex?
Cameron, are you nuts?
What are you thinking?
No offense, Debbie.
None taken.
No, but seriously.
I'm very impressed that you're here today.
Today can be a hard day,
and it's very cool of you.

(Chuckles)
Ready to get started?
(Exhales)
Okay.
That's good.
There you go, Bay.
Rung by rung.
Take it nice and slow.
You're almost there. A few more.
Good job.
You're doing good.
(Panting)
All right. There you go.
Breathe.
(Creaking)
(Chuckles)
I did it!
Okay. Well that kind of sucked,
but you know what? It
is kind of nice up here.
Oh... Ahh.
Ha. Okay.
I saw it. How do I get down?
You jump.
- What?
- You jump,
and I belay you down.
I'm not gonna jump.
I'm gonna catch your weight, okay?
I'll lower you down.
Uh, no.
I'm gonna use the ladder.
No no no no! Don't.
That's actually more dangerous, okay?
The rope, it can get caught in the rungs.
You gotta jump.
Uh, that is not gonna happen.
You can't stay up there forever.
Yeah, I can see that. Thanks.
Okay, I'm...
I'm gonna pull you down, all right?
Wait. What do you mean by that?
Take the rope and position
it behind your head.
Okay, good. All right.
Now you just stay relaxed.
I need you to step off.
I'm gonna take your weight.
Okay.
I've got you, okay? You just stay relaxed.
(Breathes heavily)
(Screams)
- (Screaming)
- Hey hey!
Bay! Stop!
Stop moving around!
Come on. Relax!
- Bay!
- (Grunts)
Bay, are you okay?
Get this thing off of me.
Come here. Come here.
(Grunts)
All right. All right.
What the hell was that?!
Was this some kind of test?
I don't know. This is just like...
something you do when you want
to see what somebody's made of.
I didn't think you were gonna get hurt.
So it was a test.
Of what? To see how tough I am?
You know, it's going to be
really hard when I'm gone.
Don't you think I know that?
What, was this to see how
well I would handle it?
Do you think I'm gonna
cheat on you or something?
- Is this about Emmett?
- Maybe.
(Angrily) Seriously?
Don't talk to me. Don't follow me.
- Just leave me alone!
- (Clatters)
- (Door opens)
- (Regina sighs)
- Sorry. I had to go two places...
- (Door closes)
To get soy.
There you go.
You're not wearing your wedding ring.
What?
I remember you said
that Angelo didn't wear one.
Is that something you
guys decided together?
Um...
John Kennish came by today
to rave about all the work
you're doing on his car wash.
He didn't seem to know that
your marriage was a secret.
I'm so sorry.
You let me make a fool of myself.
No, you didn't.
I didn't know what to do.
I mean, I wanted this job so badly,
I knew I needed to bring in clients,
and Angelo had that restaurant.
But I should have said something,
and I'm sorry I didn't.
Look, well,
I probably stepped on the third rail,
asking you to hook me up with your client.
Look, let's just put all this
aside, okay? We'll start over.
Full time?
Yes.
Really?
Yeah.
Oh!
I'm trying to be cool here,
but I'm really excited.
Okay, just one question.
John Kennish.
Mm-hmm?
Is he married?
Um...
Regina. I'm kidding.
(Chuckles)
But I got you.
Yes, you did.
(Sighs)
Hi, it's Bay. Leave a message.
You've got to be kidding me.
(Shouting) Bay?
Just come back. It's gonna be dark soon.
I'm sorry.
(Normal voice) Just come back.
(Sighs)
Can you hear anything now?
(Keyboard clicking)
What about now?
- Okay.
- (Keyboard clicking)
Just try to relax, okay?
I'm gonna ask Debbie to come over
and start talking to you in
a regular tone of voice, okay?
Just let me know when you hear anything.
Okay?
Whenever you're ready.
Hi, sweetheart.
This is me talking.
This is my voice.
Can you hear me?
Debbie: Can you hear anything at all?
Can you?
This is me talking.
Can you hear me?
Can you?
You do? You hear what I'm saying?
(Both chuckle)
This is sound, darling.
This is it.
Say something. Try talking.
Hello?
(Chuckles)
I can hear that.
I hear my tongue.
You sound great.
This is fantastic.
It is going perfectly.
Hello? Hello hello.
Hello. La la la.
I can't believe it.
- I'm so proud of you.
- Oh God.
___
- (Cameron speaks, laughs)
- (Debbie laughs)
I was a little worried
when I heard you were sick.
I guess you can't keep
the Kennishes down, huh?
Speaking of, how's your dad?
Much better, thanks.
This morning he actually ate tofurkey.
(Chuckles) Good.
Well, as you know,
I'm considering you for intern of the year,
and I'm asking everyone the same question.
Do you feel like you've made
a difference this summer?
Well...
to be honest, I mostly just took this job
so I could spend more time with John.
I'm not really interested in politics.
Really?
I have to say I'm surprised to hear that.
I mean, I read about
what happened at Carlton.
Well, that was different.
I mean, it's my school.
You know, I've interviewed
a dozen interns today,
and you're the only one who
isn't shamelessly self-promoting.
Why is that?
I just mean...
that I've been distracted a lot lately
with my dad's heart attack and everything.
I mean, let's face it... this job's
really just getting people lunch
and doing whatever needs to
be done around the office.
I'm a whiz with the copy machine.
Oh.
It's funny you should say that actually.
I found this article...
on abstinence-only education in my inbox
the day before the education vote.
Somebody said they saw you
distributing it around the office?
I distribute a lot of material,
not just stuff for my dad.
Hmm.
Well, that's too bad.
This article was the
reason I changed my vote.
It was?
Well sure. I mean, it's
hard to argue with the facts.
Right?
Took a lot of flack from my own party,
but I always say it's important
to vote with your conscience.
You understand that's what I did, right?
Yes.
Of course you do.
I can tell you really get how
things work around here, Daphne.
You know, I'm not really
sure I'm following.
I think you are.
You know, politics can be a dirty business.
I mean, people get entrenched
along ideological lines,
they end up doing things
that can ruin lives.
And when that happens, it's natural
for people to want to retaliate.
And that can get really ugly,
politically speaking of course.
Of course.
And there are always consequences.
(Keys jingle)
(Gasps)
What happened?
Coto knows everything.
He said that?
Not directly, but he made it pretty clear
he's gonna retaliate somehow.
He's bluffing.
I don't think so.
Even if he's not, we
still have the upper hand.
He's a senator who changed his vote
'cause he got his intern pregnant.
We're just two kids
who sent a text message.
We'll get a slap on the wrist,
but his career will be over.
What are you doing?
I'm telling him that.
Are you insane?
I don't know who's
scaring me more right now,
you or him.
I'm not gonna let him win.
Win?
My God, I don't care about winning.
I just want to stay out of jail.
We have an opportunity here to
make some real change with this guy,
to keep directing him towards votes
that will actually help people.
If we let him scare us off,
things will go right
back to the way they were.
Come on.
David never gets to slay Goliath,
not in real life.
I'm sick of lying to everyone.
This is not who I am
and you and I are done.
(Sighs)
Can I have my phone back?
I'm sorry.
Yeah. Me too.
What are you doing?
I'm sending that text to Coto.
Jace, please don't do that.
You're not my girlfriend.
I don't have to listen to you anymore.
(Clicking)
Oh. Hi, honey.
Hey, can I talk to you for a second?
It's kind of important.
Yeah. Of course.
Um...
things between Nikki and me
have been...
changing.
Oh.
Nothing bad, just...
we're rethinking some things.
And I was wondering...
you think it's too late to have
the wedding here at the house
instead of at a church?
Oh. Uh...
I mean, I know it's a
lot more work for us...
well, and for you, obviously...
but we'll keep it small,
just family and just a few friends.
Yeah. I think that would be lovely.
You think dad would be okay with it?
He'd be as happy about it as I am.
Well, cool.
Great, thanks.
I'm gonna go call Nikki and tell her.
(Grunting)
What the hell?!
I'm not talking to you.
Well, so you just disappear
on me for two hours?
I wanted to be by myself.
I thought you were dead.
Okay? Dead.
Well, now you know how I felt
when your freaking helicopter went down
and I didn't know if you were on it.
And how I'm gonna feel
every day when you're gone!
Okay.
But I...
shouldn't have done that to you.
I'm sorry.
And I think I hurt my ankle, like bad.
Ow.
How bad?
Like I think I have to go to an E.R.
Let me see.
Does that hurt?
Mm-hmm.
- Right there?
- Aah!
All right. All right.
Hang on.
I'll get this stuff later.
Come on.
I am so sorry.
(Chuckles) It's not that bad.
People are gonna ask me how it happened,
and every time I tell the story
that platform's gonna get higher.
Well, you looked pretty badass.
Right.
Still never doing that again. Ever.
It's cool.
I like you the way you are.
Then you should treat me like it.
I know.
And I was thinking...
let's talk to your dad.
Really?
Yeah.
You know, maybe he can
help me get stationed closer
or stay put or something.
(Door closes)
(Knocks)
Am I interrupting?
I'm reading about medicaid adjustments.
I am dying for someone to interrupt me.
(Chuckles)
I just wanted to let you know
that you are looking at K&D's newest
full-time design associate.
Well, that is great news. You earned it.
I'm sure your rave about the
car wash put it over the top.
I just told the truth.
If there's anything else I can do...
- There is.
- Name it.
You can stop.
I appreciate everything,
but you and I are now karmically even.
I hope I'm not the reason
you haven't moved back here.
No.
It was a lot of things.
Okay. I just...
if you wanted to move
back, that would be fine.
Thank you.
I appreciate that.
