Switched at Birth (2011–2017): Season 4, Episode 19 - A Mad Tea Party - full transcript
A baby shower goes wrong when secrets and deceptions are revealed.
Hey. You've been working up a storm lately.
Well, the gallery has a ton of wall space.
I have my old stuff, but I really want
to show as many new pieces as possible.
- Another portrait?
- Yeah. And my first official sale.
What? How? Who?
A customer from the Cracked Mug.
She commissioned me to paint her.
Sweetie, that is great!
Congratulations! Can I see?
Uh, it's not quite ready yet.
- Oh, come on.
- No, no, no, no. All in good time.
- Okay.
- So, how is the baby shower coming along?
- Do you need any last-minute help?
- No, thanks.
Actually, I do have a
bunch of errands to run.
And I was just gonna drag
Will along with me, but...
I can watch him for you. I want
to get to know him better anyway.
Perfect. (Chuckles)
Here's a list of the summer
internships I've applied for so far.
- These are very impressive.
- And competitive.
Which is why I thought if
you had any connections,
maybe you wouldn't mind
putting a good word in?
- I'm afraid I can't help.
- Oh.
Okay. Can I ask why?
Daphne, I don't think that
medicine is the right path for you.
You don't think I should be a doctor?
Taking chemistry a second
time, that took real chutzpah.
But the fact remains
that your combined grade
for the two semesters is still only a C.
- But that's only one grade.
- But in a core pre-med class.
Over time, your workload
is only gonna get harder.
If you're struggling now,
it's highly improbable
that you're gonna make
it to the finish line.
- I realize that this...
- (Voice fades out)
(Voice fades in)... A plethora
of other career paths...
Thank you for your time. I should go.
Bay: Um, am I supposed to squeeze
a vegetable into this meal?
Mustard is a seed, which
technically is grown in a garden.
Yeah, that's a bit of a stretch.
But, hey, I won't tell your
dad or Regina if you don't.
- (Chuckles) Deal.
- Okay... and...
- Just keep the change.
- (Phone rings)
All right. Uh...
The shower's in an hour, which
pretty much means we gotta eat and...
Will?
Will?
Will! W...
Will!
What are you doing? Hey! Stop!
What are you doing? Hey!
No! No, no, no, no! Stop! Hey!
(Panting) Okay. K4X...
(Tires screech)
(Gasps) K4X...
K4X... um...
Regina: Hey, Bay. How's it going?
Regina, someone just took Will!
Regina: What?
(Theme music playing)
Damn it. She's his mother.
His mother? I thought she was dead.
We went through a nasty divorce.
And she's still fighting me over custody.
Oh, god, she totally used me.
This is all my fault. I'm so sorry.
Sweetie, it's not your fault.
- If anyone is to blame, it's...
- Me.
I always knew this could happen someday.
We need to find Will and bring him
home. I need you to tell me everything.
Okay. Well, um...
There's not much to tell. She came
here to the Cracked Mug a few days ago,
she liked my portraits. Then
she offered me $500 to paint her.
- The next day, we met back at my studio...
- She's been to the house?
- Yeah. Is that bad?
- No, it's fine. Go on.
She just asked a bunch of questions about
the coffeehouse, the other portraits.
I just thought she was being friendly.
Did she give you a cell number,
mention where she was staying?
- All of our interaction was in person.
- Damn it.
Oh, I got part of her license plate.
Uh, Kansas K4X. The car was dark blue.
Kansas plates. Means
it's probably a rental.
I'll call around, see
if I can find a match.
Okay. Eric has custody and Hope's upset?
- I still don't really get it.
- It's complicated.
(Sighs) I just hope Will's okay.
I'm sure he is. She's his mom.
She doesn't want to hurt him.
- You're sure we shouldn't call the police?
- Yes.
This is a private family matter.
Oh, my god. Lily's shower.
Oh. Hey, I'll cover for you.
You just stay here, focus
on getting Will back.
I will get there as soon as I can.
- Let's keep this between us, okay?
- Okay.
(Sighs) Just meeting
all your mom's friends,
I just want to make sure I
make a really good impression.
You will.
Come on, you're carrying a Kennish kid!
(Laughs)
Our baby shower. Who'd of thought it?
If only I didn't have to tell
Melody that I was quitting my job.
Mm. I hear ya. I still haven't told Bay.
- I've been avoiding it.
- How did Daphne take it?
She was bummed, but I think
knowing a trip to London
- is in her future helped ease the pain.
- (Groans)
(Sighs) Flats it is.
- (Laughs) Hey, come here. Oh!
- Oh!
Today is not the day to be worried
about hard conversations
or shoes that don't fit.
- Just try to enjoy it.
- You're right.
I can talk to Melody on Monday.
Today is about celebrating our son.
- And presents!
- Yeah. (Laughs)
Ah! Ladies, correct me if I'm wrong,
but isn't Regina supposed
to be hosting all this?
It's okay. We're happy to help.
I'm gonna take these
out to the foyer. Here.
It looks great out there, sweetie.
(Sighs) So, how's the internship
hunt going? Anything promising?
(Chuckles) Actually, I've been
re-thinking my summer plans.
I mean, do I really want to work for free?
Oh, no. I don't want our money problems
- to have an influence on you, okay?
- No, it's not that.
I just think I'd rather do
something more practical.
You know, get a real job. (Chuckles)
Wait a second. Wasn't this
whole summer internship
about the long haul, okay,
investing in your future as a doctor?
(Doorbell rings)
- What?
- Uh, caterer's here.
Oh. I'll go get it.
- Need any help?
- Hey, D.
- Sharee! Oh, my god!
- (Both laugh)
- It's so good to see you!
- You too.
- What are you doing here?
- Working.
I didn't even know we were coming here
until we turned down the street.
Damn, S.L.U. lets out early!
- How long have you been home?
- Not long.
And you already have a
summer job? Good for you.
Money's not bad and the
people are nice, so...
So tell me everything.
How was field hockey?
I heard that you guys kicked Indiana's ass.
- Yeah, it was a big win for us.
- Were you a starter?
Actually, I, um... I had to quit the team.
What? Why?
Hurt my shoulder. Took
me out for the season.
Oh, no! I'm so sorry.
- What about your scholarship?
- We worked something out.
- That's a relief.
- Yeah. I better...
- Bay: Mom! We're here!
- Oh, hey!
Hey, we're not too early, are we? Sorry.
Oh, god, you look so beautiful!
- Oh, wow, place looks great.
- Thank you.
But we're not finished in the
living room, so no peeking.
- Oh, hopefully the loo's not off limits?
- Of course not. Go ahead.
I heard there was a plumbing
emergency at the Cracked Mug.
Yes. Uh... yeah.
- It was this pipe that burst.
- Oh, no.
Yeah, so she is with the plumber right now.
In the meantime, I will be your substitute
- hostess with the mostest.
- Oh, honey,
you've been so busy with
the art show and everything.
- I can help.
- Absolutely not, mom.
This shower is in your honor too. Okay?
So just sit back and relax.
All right. Well, I haven't had a
chance to celebrate with my friends.
- It's gonna be a nice day.
- Toby, you ready to conquer 18 holes?
Ladies, have fun. See you later.
- Wish me luck.
- Bye.
Okay. So I just have to set up
the easel with all the baby photos,
and then I'm gonna put out some
pens and paper for motherly advice.
I definitely need to change. Okay...
- Are you sure that I...
- No. Mom, totally got this.
- All right. Thanks.
- Anything?
Well, on the plus side, Hope
hasn't involved the police.
I'm not so sure that's a plus.
Look, she's definitely working an angle.
If all she wanted was Will back,
she would've called the
cops on me and been halfway
- back to Atlanta by now.
- (Phone rings)
Cracked Mug.
Where's my son? Is he okay?
Let me speak to him.
Just let me speak to him!
Yeah. Yeah. I'm listening.
No. This is between you and me. No!
- She wants to meet with you.
- Me?
Frazier Park, one hour. If she
sees me, she'll call the cops.
Of course.
Tell her yes. I'll go.
She'll be there.
- Why me?
- I have no idea.
- But you don't have to do this.
- Yes, I do.
I'm in this with you.
Hey, where should I put these?
Uh... in here.
Okay. So, you're not gonna believe this.
But Will's mom is actually alive.
Yeah, I know that.
W... (Chuckles) You know?
- Why didn't you tell me?
- It wasn't my secret to tell.
It's Regina's. Well, Eric's, technically.
And none of you thought that I should know.
It wasn't like that.
Look, when Regina found
out, she confronted Eric
and he told her the whole story.
But she wanted to make
sure that it was all true.
So we actually went to
Atlanta to check her out.
You did what?
That weekend we went to
Ohio to visit our cousins?
You were actually in Atlanta?
You lied to me? Both of you?
- I'm sorry. I just didn't...
- Hello?
- What is she doing here?
- Hey, hey, hey!
- We are so not done.
- We'll talk later, okay?
Professor Marillo.
- Daphne?
- Hi. What are you doing here?
I'm here for the baby shower.
I... no, I mean, how do you know Lily?
We met at a women in academia luncheon.
I'm guessing that you two know each
other through the disabilities office?
Yeah. And the baby's father is my brother.
Ah. (Laughs)
- Small world.
- Yeah.
- (Both chuckle)
- You know, I'm actually glad that I ran into you.
I felt bad about how
our conversation ended.
It's okay. We really don't
need to talk about it.
But were upset, which is
completely understandable.
I merely thought that it was better for you
to face reality now, before...
- Honey?
- Kathryn, hi.
Um, this is my chemistry
professor, Beth Marillo.
- This is my biological mom, Kathryn Kennish.
- Oh, welcome! Hi.
So the deafness, not hereditary.
- Uh, no.
- Do you know what caused it?
Um, Daphne had meningitis
when she was three.
Uh, come on in. Do you
want something to drink?
- Here.
- Yes, thank you.
- Eric's not here.
- He better not be.
How's Will? Is he okay?
You mean Keon? He's fine.
He's eating pizza watching a show.
- "Sky something."
- Skywatchers .
Just because you know what show he
watches doesn't make you his mama.
- I'm his mama.
- What do you want?
You've got your kid, you haven't
called the cops. Why am I here?
I want me and Keon to start a
new life. And that takes money.
What, you and Jared don't
make enough selling drugs?
I said a new life.
Jared is in the past.
I turned state's evidence
on him. He's in prison.
That's the prosecutor,
if you don't believe me.
I'm outta the drug game for good.
No, now you're just into
blackmail and extortion.
I'm offering you a chance
to keep your criminal man
from doing time for kidnapping my son.
Don't act like Eric is the angel here.
I've made some mistakes, I know that.
But I'm clean now. I'm
ready to start fresh,
ready to be a good mom to
Keon. I know I can do it.
I just need a hundred
grand, so we can start fresh.
You want $100,000?
And in return, I won't
call the cops on Eric, ever.
- We don't have that kind of money.
- I seen where y'all live.
A hundred grand, you can afford that.
My living situation is
not what you think it is.
I know rich when I see it.
Okay, so let's say we get
you the money. And then what?
How do we know you're
not gonna call the cops?
- You'll have to trust me.
- Yeah, right.
I could say the same about you.
You pretended you were moving to
Atlanta just to get a look at me.
And what did you do,
break a hose on a rental?
(Scoffs) You're in love
with him. I can see it.
Hey, it's okay. I've been there, I know.
That man gets a hold of your heart...
That's why you came to Atlanta,
and that's why you are gonna pay me.
You got 24 hours to get
me and Keon that money,
or I turn Eric in.

Hey. Okay, so we are asking...
Aren't you radiant? Just a vision.
- Oh. Thank you.
- I'm Margaret Halpern.
- Kathryn and I are in the choir together at St. Mark's.
- Oh, Lily. Pleasure to meet you.
- I just want to say, you must be so special.
- Excuse me?
Well, god gives special
children to special people.
Those kids are little angels.
Hey, hey! Hey, careful.
Does your boss know about your shoulder?
You know, it's really not that bad.
If it was bad enough that
you had to quit the team...
Or maybe it wasn't.
Hey. Why did you really quit the team?
- You wouldn't understand.
- Try me.
- Was it your coach? A teammate?
- No.
Whatever it is, maybe I can help.
I can get Toby to call the coach,
- and see about getting you reinstated.
- No!
I don't understand.
I don't go to that school anymore.
What are you talking about? What
do you mean you don't go there?
I dropped out, all right?
Oh... sorry. I just needed a little rest.
It's okay. Just relax.
So, I saw you talking to Mrs. Halpern.
Yeah. That lady's a piece of work.
I know they mean well, but it's
just the way they're looking at me...
Like they feel so sorry for me.
- Sometimes it's exhausting.
- Yeah, I've, uh...
I've been there.
It happens to me every
time I walk across campus.
You know, we've never really
had a chance to talk about that.
Um... how I was the one who...
Reported what happened with me and Tank?
I'm sorry how that played out.
You have to know, I was just doing my job.
I do know that.
And I'm glad somebody was there to do it.
- Oh!
- Uh...
- Is that him?
- Yeah. I think he wants to say hi.
Really? Uh... (Laughs)
- May I?
- Go ahead.
(Both chuckle)
- Oh... oh!
- (Both laugh)
Hey there, little guy.
Oh... oh! I'm sorry. Is this weird?
Not at all. They say
it's good to talk to him.
Buddy... (Laughs), it's your Aunt Bay.
Oh, have I got such plans for you.
I'm going to teach you how to finger paint,
and I'm gonna show you
all the good places to hide
from Grandpa and Grandma.
We're gonna have so much fun. (Laughs)
Lily, listen, um...
I know my mom's friends can be a lot.
So... just stick with me.
- I'll have your back.
- Thanks.
- When did you drop out?
- Christmas.
- Christmas?
- It wasn't for me, okay?
What are you talking about?
You were one of the smartest
kids in our English class.
You have no problem speaking up.
Most classes, I was the
only black face in the room.
Everyone was talking about what island
they were going to for spring break,
and I was praying they'd
keep the dorm dining room open
so I'd have somewhere to eat meals.
Everyone was looking at me
like the poor scholarship kid.
I was just lost, and I
started to fall behind.
The more I fell behind,
the more it freaked me out
'cause then I was the poor black girl
on scholarship who couldn't keep up.
- Why didn't you ask for help?
- Ask who?
Anyone. The dean, your professor,
someone from your family.
Nobody in my family went to college!
My mom didn't understand
what I was going through,
my aunt or my cousin, nobody.
I used to walk around that fancy
campus and think, what am I doing here?
My mom works at a box store.
Who cares what your mom does for a living?
You did deserve to be there. You do.
- You let all that get in your head.
- How could I not?
Look, me and college are a bad match.
And I've made my peace with it.
I better get these out there.
Even if this checks out, I still don't
trust her. She's a liar and an addict.
- Eric...
- We give her the money,
what's to say that she
still won't call the cops?
Nothing. But if we
don't give her the money,
- you know she will.
- Great. So I not only lose my son,
I get to spend the rest of my life
wondering if she's gonna change her mind?
Yes, if you want to have any
chance at staying out of prison.
Fine. I'll give her the money.
But only because it'll buy me
some time to get my son back.
Okay, then.
I still have some of the
money that Angelo left me.
- It's not quite a hundred grand...
- No, no, no. I'm not taking your money.
- This is my problem.
- This is our problem.
I told you, I'm in this with you.
Will is like a son to me, and I love you.
I will do whatever it takes
to keep you out of jail.
Please, take the money.
I'll pay you back.
I'm not worried about that.
I'm worried about coming up with the rest.
- I know some people.
- What kind of "people"?
Someone who owes me a favor.
- I'll make some calls, track him down.
- Eric!
We'll talk about it later. You should
get to the shower, make an appearance.
Text me if you hear anything.
Oh!
I'm moving to London with Toby.
I'm quitting.
I've been wrestling with this for weeks.
I love the deaf program,
and working with you, it's my dream job.
But at the end of the day, I have
to do what's best for the baby,
and that means moving to England.
I'm sorry. I hope you don't hate me.
Thank you.
- You're moving to London?
- Yeah.
- Why didn't you tell me?
- Toby wanted to,
he just couldn't find the right moment.
Cake is served.
- Enjoy. (Laughs)
- Outside. Now.
Did you know that Toby and
Lily are moving to London?
Oh, my god.
Am I the last person in this
family to know everything?
I only found out two days ago.
Toby asked me not to say anything
'cause he wanted to tell you himself.
Yeah, well, looks like he missed the boat.
I'm sorry. Go ahead, ask me anything.
I'll tell you whatever I know.
(Sighs) Okay.
Eric. Do you trust him?
Eric is a good guy.
He only took Will because he was
in a really dangerous situation.
I'm sorry. Um, he... he
took Will? Like illegally?
Hope was a drug addict. Eric
had to get him out of there.
- So Eric is the kidnapper?
- Technically, yeah, I guess.
I know this looks bad.
And... he used to be in a gang.
Wow. This guy is turning
out to be a real prince.
No, it was a long time ago,
and I got over it when he...
When he what?
(Sighs) Okay, now I know
you're going to be mad.
I'm already mad.
Nacho tried to blackmail me.
Nacho tried to blackmail you?
It was months ago, and
Eric totally shut it down.
- It was amazing.
- And you didn't think that I should know about this?
It was the night of the storm.
Emmett was in town after
the whole Tank thing,
Grandma Bonnie was here,
Kathryn was really upset.
- Everyone had a lot going on.
- Daphne, Nacho affects me too!
- I had a right to know!
- You're right. I'm sorry.
Absolutely. Let's go open some presents.
Bay...
I just hate that Bay found out that way.
She'll be happy for you
eventually. Just give her time.
You think Melody will feel the same way?
Are you having second
thoughts about leaving?
Not about moving, I just hate
leaving Melody short-handed.
- People quit their jobs. It happens.
- Except I love my job.
And I'm leaving just as the
program is getting started.
I've worked really hard to get where I am.
Helping to build something
from the ground up.
I may never get an
opportunity like this again.
I'm just not ready to
close the door on my career.
It doesn't have to be closed
forever. You could always...
Lily, Kathryn, I am so sorry.
Oh, no, it's fine! We just missed you.
- How's the leaky pipe?
- It's holding.
- Oh.
- Um...
Thank you for covering for me. I owe you.
- How's Will?
- Hope called. Will is safe.
And Eric is working on a solution.
I think everything's gonna work out.
- (Laughter)
- All: Aww!
(Applause)
It's so sweet of Grandma
to send something. Love it!
- I love it.
- Okay. Well, let's do the next one.
Thank you. Ooh, heavy.
- Oh, wow. So elaborate.
- Oh!
It's a train set! Who's it from?
I'm so sorry. I didn't know.
I only learned today that
the boy has Down syndrome.
Oh, it's okay. It's a great gift.
- Yeah.
- Obviously, if I had known...
Oh, no, no. He's gonna love it!
It just might take him a
little longer to master.
- (Laughter)
- I know this one child at the park,
you can hardly even tell.
You might have one
that's barely noticeable.
- So, let's open another gift.
- Yeah. That's a great idea. Okay.
- So...
- These children are the sweetest thing.
Always hugging you, so affectionate.
Yes, why is that, I wonder?
You know, that's a fascinating question.
I don't know that all Down
syndrome children are any one thing.
Yes, but affection is clearly a
marked trait in DS individuals.
You know, one thing I do
know is that they're doing
amazing things these days
with chromosome therapy.
Basically, they shut down defective genes
by silencing them, turn them off.
I wouldn't be surprised
if 50 years from now,
they fix Down syndrome
altogether. Eradicated it.
That's amazing.
Who said they need to be fixed?
Oh. Well... that was a bad word choice.
Who said the gene is defective?
Again, bad choice of words.
I should've said "abnormal."
Not... the norm.
What's wrong with being abnormal?
Maybe it's good that they
see the world differently.
Maybe we don't always have to
value faster, stronger, smarter.
Kathryn, it's okay. You
don't have to defend...
No, no, no. Isn't it
possible that there's a reason
that not everyone on
the planet is the same?
Yes. But shortened life span,
health problems, decreased mental ability?
Of course we, as a race, want to cure that.
The fact that your family is
handling this so well is fantastic,
but trisomy 21 is a genetic mutation
that evolution or science
will get rid of someday.
We don't know that.
What I do know is that this is a
celebration of Lily and my grandson,
and I would like to keep it that way.
Bay, should we open another gift?
Yes, we can.
Professor, wait.
Well, now I've battled with both your moms.
Why did you let me into your class?
You impressed me.
I was giving you a chance to
prove that you were exceptional.
But you don't think that I am?
Because I'm "abnormal"?
I think your deafness
is a bigger obstacle to mastering
science than anticipated.
- (Scoffs)
- But there's no question
that you have a bright future,
and there are so many other ways that
you can make a difference in the world.
There is public policy, or social work...
you once told me not to give up so
easily when someone knocks me down.
That was really good advice.
I am going to be a doctor.
It might not be at the best
medical school in the nation.
And it might take me longer than
other people. But I will get there.
I am going to do it.
(Chuckles)
Bay: Okay. So...
Lily will pick a card.
And then whoever wrote
it can read it out loud
- to the rest of the group.
- Bay, if you don't mind?
Hi, everyone.
I'm so sorry for being late.
I just wanted to thank you
all for coming out today
to support Lily and Toby.
And a special thank you to Bay
for pinch-hitting as hostess.
I didn't have time to write out my advice,
so I'll just share it quickly. Um...
Lily...
Trust your gut, always.
Mother's intuition is real.
Listen to it.
If something doesn't feel right to you,
it probably isn't.
When Daphne was three,
she got very sick, very fast.
102 fever, vomiting.
So I rushed her to the E.R.,
and the doctor told me that
she had the stomach flu.
I should take her home and give
her fluids, and wait it out.
But as we towards the car,
I could tell that something
bigger was taking hold.
I had no idea what it was,
but I knew something wasn't right.
So I drove across town to another hospital,
and that's where they
diagnosed her with meningitis.
If I hadn't...
(Inhales, exhales)
When all is said and done,
you know your kid
better than any doctor,
any teacher...
Or expert.
You are so brave.
- Incredible story.
- (Regina chuckles)
- That's it.
- (All chuckle)
Bay: Okay, I'll go next. Um...
Well, I'm not a mom,
but I happen to have two.
(Laughter)
Uh, so I think that I know a little bit
about the, uh, mother-child relationship.
And for me,
the most important thing a mother can do
is be honest with her children.
Because in the end,
kids will always figure out the truth.
Um...
(Knocking)
I spoke to Daphne.
What else is new?
I'm sorry.
I should've told you about Hope.
And Atlanta.
And Nacho.
Honestly,
after Daphne and I dealt with it all,
I figured no one else needed to know.
So it was okay to just keep lying to me.
- No!
- And not just six months ago.
You lied to me this morning.
You told me it was a custody dispute,
when in reality, Eric kidnapped him.
I was trying to keep you out of it.
- Maybe that was a bad choice.
- I don't even know why I'm surprised.
After all, lying's been your M.O.
since you found out about the switch.
Look, I get it. You've
known Daphne a lot longer,
you two have this special
bond. But I'm your daughter too.
So why is it that you tell her
everything, and you tell me nothing?
Bay, it's not like that.
None of this was a choice.
- It just happened.
- That is a cop-out.
You made a choice. You
chose her, like always.
- Don't say that.
- Why not?
Because right now, it feels like
the last four years never happened.
What if you applied to UMKC?
- Daphne...
- You could live at home,
and you already know people there.
- Me, Natalie, Travis, Bay.
- I told you.
College and I aren't a good match.
No, S.L.U. and you weren't a good
match. That's one bad experience.
Not everyone is destined for college.
Fine! But you are.
You can't let this be it, Sharee.
You've got to try again, as scary as it is.
My entire family was watching.
I was gonna be the first.
I know how that feels.
It's a lot of pressure.
Look, I'm not having an easy time either.
And I almost let somebody talk me
into giving up on medical school.
But I'm gonna keep at it.
We can keep each other at it.
Melody's at UMKC.
Your family is close by. You
just need some support, that's it.
Just a little support.
Maybe.
Maybe? Maybe... ?
I said maybe, as in "I'll think about it."
Okay. (Laughs)
Well, we're officially guest-free.
Thank you, Kathryn. For everything.
Hey, I'll defend that little guy
against the world if I have to.
Oh! You know, I have
something I wanna tell you.
- What?
- Well, you know,
when you were talking
about leaving your job,
and how hard it was because
it's such a fantastic program,
I was thinking, that's what I want to do.
I want to be a part of
something that really matters.
So I had a long chat with Melody.
And I told her that I
was looking for a job,
and one thing led to another, and...
You... you're taking my job?
Yeah, just until she
can fill it permanently.
That... that's... wow!
I hope it eases your mind, knowing
you're not leaving Melody in the lurch.
Definitely. That's huge.
- Congratulations.
- Thank you!
Is the coast clear?
- Very funny.
- (Chuckles)
- Hey!
- Hey, baby.
- Oh!
- So, how'd it do?
- Exhausting, but brilliant.
- See? You survived.
- Looks like you did Bay in.
- Ha.
Lily: She was a wonderful hostess.
- So how'd we make out in the loot department?
- Oh, we scored big.
- Yeah.
- It'll probably cost a bundle to ship it all to London.
Oh, yeah. Sorry, babe.
Cat's out of the bag.
I was working up to it.
It's okay. I'm happy for you.
Sweetie, I'm literally falling asleep
- with my eyes open.
- Oh. Let's get you home.
- Bye. You'll can get the stuff tomorrow.
- Thank you.
- Thank you so much, both of you.
- You're welcome. Bye.
- Mm!
- Yeah. Thanks, guys.
- See you guys.
- Drive safe.
Honey, is everything all
right? Or are you just tired?
Bay?
I'm trying to figure out whether
I should tell you guys something.
Well, now you definitely should.
Kathryn: Honey?
Hi.
Sorry I had to take off.
Plumbing disaster averted.
Whatever's left to clean
up, just leave it to me.
You want to tell us why you let
a fugitive move into our house?
Well, the gallery has a ton of wall space.
I have my old stuff, but I really want
to show as many new pieces as possible.
- Another portrait?
- Yeah. And my first official sale.
What? How? Who?
A customer from the Cracked Mug.
She commissioned me to paint her.
Sweetie, that is great!
Congratulations! Can I see?
Uh, it's not quite ready yet.
- Oh, come on.
- No, no, no, no. All in good time.
- Okay.
- So, how is the baby shower coming along?
- Do you need any last-minute help?
- No, thanks.
Actually, I do have a
bunch of errands to run.
And I was just gonna drag
Will along with me, but...
I can watch him for you. I want
to get to know him better anyway.
Perfect. (Chuckles)
Here's a list of the summer
internships I've applied for so far.
- These are very impressive.
- And competitive.
Which is why I thought if
you had any connections,
maybe you wouldn't mind
putting a good word in?
- I'm afraid I can't help.
- Oh.
Okay. Can I ask why?
Daphne, I don't think that
medicine is the right path for you.
You don't think I should be a doctor?
Taking chemistry a second
time, that took real chutzpah.
But the fact remains
that your combined grade
for the two semesters is still only a C.
- But that's only one grade.
- But in a core pre-med class.
Over time, your workload
is only gonna get harder.
If you're struggling now,
it's highly improbable
that you're gonna make
it to the finish line.
- I realize that this...
- (Voice fades out)
(Voice fades in)... A plethora
of other career paths...
Thank you for your time. I should go.
Bay: Um, am I supposed to squeeze
a vegetable into this meal?
Mustard is a seed, which
technically is grown in a garden.
Yeah, that's a bit of a stretch.
But, hey, I won't tell your
dad or Regina if you don't.
- (Chuckles) Deal.
- Okay... and...
- Just keep the change.
- (Phone rings)
All right. Uh...
The shower's in an hour, which
pretty much means we gotta eat and...
Will?
Will?
Will! W...
Will!
What are you doing? Hey! Stop!
What are you doing? Hey!
No! No, no, no, no! Stop! Hey!
(Panting) Okay. K4X...
(Tires screech)
(Gasps) K4X...
K4X... um...
Regina: Hey, Bay. How's it going?
Regina, someone just took Will!
Regina: What?
(Theme music playing)
Damn it. She's his mother.
His mother? I thought she was dead.
We went through a nasty divorce.
And she's still fighting me over custody.
Oh, god, she totally used me.
This is all my fault. I'm so sorry.
Sweetie, it's not your fault.
- If anyone is to blame, it's...
- Me.
I always knew this could happen someday.
We need to find Will and bring him
home. I need you to tell me everything.
Okay. Well, um...
There's not much to tell. She came
here to the Cracked Mug a few days ago,
she liked my portraits. Then
she offered me $500 to paint her.
- The next day, we met back at my studio...
- She's been to the house?
- Yeah. Is that bad?
- No, it's fine. Go on.
She just asked a bunch of questions about
the coffeehouse, the other portraits.
I just thought she was being friendly.
Did she give you a cell number,
mention where she was staying?
- All of our interaction was in person.
- Damn it.
Oh, I got part of her license plate.
Uh, Kansas K4X. The car was dark blue.
Kansas plates. Means
it's probably a rental.
I'll call around, see
if I can find a match.
Okay. Eric has custody and Hope's upset?
- I still don't really get it.
- It's complicated.
(Sighs) I just hope Will's okay.
I'm sure he is. She's his mom.
She doesn't want to hurt him.
- You're sure we shouldn't call the police?
- Yes.
This is a private family matter.
Oh, my god. Lily's shower.
Oh. Hey, I'll cover for you.
You just stay here, focus
on getting Will back.
I will get there as soon as I can.
- Let's keep this between us, okay?
- Okay.
(Sighs) Just meeting
all your mom's friends,
I just want to make sure I
make a really good impression.
You will.
Come on, you're carrying a Kennish kid!
(Laughs)
Our baby shower. Who'd of thought it?
If only I didn't have to tell
Melody that I was quitting my job.
Mm. I hear ya. I still haven't told Bay.
- I've been avoiding it.
- How did Daphne take it?
She was bummed, but I think
knowing a trip to London
- is in her future helped ease the pain.
- (Groans)
(Sighs) Flats it is.
- (Laughs) Hey, come here. Oh!
- Oh!
Today is not the day to be worried
about hard conversations
or shoes that don't fit.
- Just try to enjoy it.
- You're right.
I can talk to Melody on Monday.
Today is about celebrating our son.
- And presents!
- Yeah. (Laughs)
Ah! Ladies, correct me if I'm wrong,
but isn't Regina supposed
to be hosting all this?
It's okay. We're happy to help.
I'm gonna take these
out to the foyer. Here.
It looks great out there, sweetie.
(Sighs) So, how's the internship
hunt going? Anything promising?
(Chuckles) Actually, I've been
re-thinking my summer plans.
I mean, do I really want to work for free?
Oh, no. I don't want our money problems
- to have an influence on you, okay?
- No, it's not that.
I just think I'd rather do
something more practical.
You know, get a real job. (Chuckles)
Wait a second. Wasn't this
whole summer internship
about the long haul, okay,
investing in your future as a doctor?
(Doorbell rings)
- What?
- Uh, caterer's here.
Oh. I'll go get it.
- Need any help?
- Hey, D.
- Sharee! Oh, my god!
- (Both laugh)
- It's so good to see you!
- You too.
- What are you doing here?
- Working.
I didn't even know we were coming here
until we turned down the street.
Damn, S.L.U. lets out early!
- How long have you been home?
- Not long.
And you already have a
summer job? Good for you.
Money's not bad and the
people are nice, so...
So tell me everything.
How was field hockey?
I heard that you guys kicked Indiana's ass.
- Yeah, it was a big win for us.
- Were you a starter?
Actually, I, um... I had to quit the team.
What? Why?
Hurt my shoulder. Took
me out for the season.
Oh, no! I'm so sorry.
- What about your scholarship?
- We worked something out.
- That's a relief.
- Yeah. I better...
- Bay: Mom! We're here!
- Oh, hey!
Hey, we're not too early, are we? Sorry.
Oh, god, you look so beautiful!
- Oh, wow, place looks great.
- Thank you.
But we're not finished in the
living room, so no peeking.
- Oh, hopefully the loo's not off limits?
- Of course not. Go ahead.
I heard there was a plumbing
emergency at the Cracked Mug.
Yes. Uh... yeah.
- It was this pipe that burst.
- Oh, no.
Yeah, so she is with the plumber right now.
In the meantime, I will be your substitute
- hostess with the mostest.
- Oh, honey,
you've been so busy with
the art show and everything.
- I can help.
- Absolutely not, mom.
This shower is in your honor too. Okay?
So just sit back and relax.
All right. Well, I haven't had a
chance to celebrate with my friends.
- It's gonna be a nice day.
- Toby, you ready to conquer 18 holes?
Ladies, have fun. See you later.
- Wish me luck.
- Bye.
Okay. So I just have to set up
the easel with all the baby photos,
and then I'm gonna put out some
pens and paper for motherly advice.
I definitely need to change. Okay...
- Are you sure that I...
- No. Mom, totally got this.
- All right. Thanks.
- Anything?
Well, on the plus side, Hope
hasn't involved the police.
I'm not so sure that's a plus.
Look, she's definitely working an angle.
If all she wanted was Will back,
she would've called the
cops on me and been halfway
- back to Atlanta by now.
- (Phone rings)
Cracked Mug.
Where's my son? Is he okay?
Let me speak to him.
Just let me speak to him!
Yeah. Yeah. I'm listening.
No. This is between you and me. No!
- She wants to meet with you.
- Me?
Frazier Park, one hour. If she
sees me, she'll call the cops.
Of course.
Tell her yes. I'll go.
She'll be there.
- Why me?
- I have no idea.
- But you don't have to do this.
- Yes, I do.
I'm in this with you.
Hey, where should I put these?
Uh... in here.
Okay. So, you're not gonna believe this.
But Will's mom is actually alive.
Yeah, I know that.
W... (Chuckles) You know?
- Why didn't you tell me?
- It wasn't my secret to tell.
It's Regina's. Well, Eric's, technically.
And none of you thought that I should know.
It wasn't like that.
Look, when Regina found
out, she confronted Eric
and he told her the whole story.
But she wanted to make
sure that it was all true.
So we actually went to
Atlanta to check her out.
You did what?
That weekend we went to
Ohio to visit our cousins?
You were actually in Atlanta?
You lied to me? Both of you?
- I'm sorry. I just didn't...
- Hello?
- What is she doing here?
- Hey, hey, hey!
- We are so not done.
- We'll talk later, okay?
Professor Marillo.
- Daphne?
- Hi. What are you doing here?
I'm here for the baby shower.
I... no, I mean, how do you know Lily?
We met at a women in academia luncheon.
I'm guessing that you two know each
other through the disabilities office?
Yeah. And the baby's father is my brother.
Ah. (Laughs)
- Small world.
- Yeah.
- (Both chuckle)
- You know, I'm actually glad that I ran into you.
I felt bad about how
our conversation ended.
It's okay. We really don't
need to talk about it.
But were upset, which is
completely understandable.
I merely thought that it was better for you
to face reality now, before...
- Honey?
- Kathryn, hi.
Um, this is my chemistry
professor, Beth Marillo.
- This is my biological mom, Kathryn Kennish.
- Oh, welcome! Hi.
So the deafness, not hereditary.
- Uh, no.
- Do you know what caused it?
Um, Daphne had meningitis
when she was three.
Uh, come on in. Do you
want something to drink?
- Here.
- Yes, thank you.
- Eric's not here.
- He better not be.
How's Will? Is he okay?
You mean Keon? He's fine.
He's eating pizza watching a show.
- "Sky something."
- Skywatchers .
Just because you know what show he
watches doesn't make you his mama.
- I'm his mama.
- What do you want?
You've got your kid, you haven't
called the cops. Why am I here?
I want me and Keon to start a
new life. And that takes money.
What, you and Jared don't
make enough selling drugs?
I said a new life.
Jared is in the past.
I turned state's evidence
on him. He's in prison.
That's the prosecutor,
if you don't believe me.
I'm outta the drug game for good.
No, now you're just into
blackmail and extortion.
I'm offering you a chance
to keep your criminal man
from doing time for kidnapping my son.
Don't act like Eric is the angel here.
I've made some mistakes, I know that.
But I'm clean now. I'm
ready to start fresh,
ready to be a good mom to
Keon. I know I can do it.
I just need a hundred
grand, so we can start fresh.
You want $100,000?
And in return, I won't
call the cops on Eric, ever.
- We don't have that kind of money.
- I seen where y'all live.
A hundred grand, you can afford that.
My living situation is
not what you think it is.
I know rich when I see it.
Okay, so let's say we get
you the money. And then what?
How do we know you're
not gonna call the cops?
- You'll have to trust me.
- Yeah, right.
I could say the same about you.
You pretended you were moving to
Atlanta just to get a look at me.
And what did you do,
break a hose on a rental?
(Scoffs) You're in love
with him. I can see it.
Hey, it's okay. I've been there, I know.
That man gets a hold of your heart...
That's why you came to Atlanta,
and that's why you are gonna pay me.
You got 24 hours to get
me and Keon that money,
or I turn Eric in.

Hey. Okay, so we are asking...
Aren't you radiant? Just a vision.
- Oh. Thank you.
- I'm Margaret Halpern.
- Kathryn and I are in the choir together at St. Mark's.
- Oh, Lily. Pleasure to meet you.
- I just want to say, you must be so special.
- Excuse me?
Well, god gives special
children to special people.
Those kids are little angels.
Hey, hey! Hey, careful.
Does your boss know about your shoulder?
You know, it's really not that bad.
If it was bad enough that
you had to quit the team...
Or maybe it wasn't.
Hey. Why did you really quit the team?
- You wouldn't understand.
- Try me.
- Was it your coach? A teammate?
- No.
Whatever it is, maybe I can help.
I can get Toby to call the coach,
- and see about getting you reinstated.
- No!
I don't understand.
I don't go to that school anymore.
What are you talking about? What
do you mean you don't go there?
I dropped out, all right?
Oh... sorry. I just needed a little rest.
It's okay. Just relax.
So, I saw you talking to Mrs. Halpern.
Yeah. That lady's a piece of work.
I know they mean well, but it's
just the way they're looking at me...
Like they feel so sorry for me.
- Sometimes it's exhausting.
- Yeah, I've, uh...
I've been there.
It happens to me every
time I walk across campus.
You know, we've never really
had a chance to talk about that.
Um... how I was the one who...
Reported what happened with me and Tank?
I'm sorry how that played out.
You have to know, I was just doing my job.
I do know that.
And I'm glad somebody was there to do it.
- Oh!
- Uh...
- Is that him?
- Yeah. I think he wants to say hi.
Really? Uh... (Laughs)
- May I?
- Go ahead.
(Both chuckle)
- Oh... oh!
- (Both laugh)
Hey there, little guy.
Oh... oh! I'm sorry. Is this weird?
Not at all. They say
it's good to talk to him.
Buddy... (Laughs), it's your Aunt Bay.
Oh, have I got such plans for you.
I'm going to teach you how to finger paint,
and I'm gonna show you
all the good places to hide
from Grandpa and Grandma.
We're gonna have so much fun. (Laughs)
Lily, listen, um...
I know my mom's friends can be a lot.
So... just stick with me.
- I'll have your back.
- Thanks.
- When did you drop out?
- Christmas.
- Christmas?
- It wasn't for me, okay?
What are you talking about?
You were one of the smartest
kids in our English class.
You have no problem speaking up.
Most classes, I was the
only black face in the room.
Everyone was talking about what island
they were going to for spring break,
and I was praying they'd
keep the dorm dining room open
so I'd have somewhere to eat meals.
Everyone was looking at me
like the poor scholarship kid.
I was just lost, and I
started to fall behind.
The more I fell behind,
the more it freaked me out
'cause then I was the poor black girl
on scholarship who couldn't keep up.
- Why didn't you ask for help?
- Ask who?
Anyone. The dean, your professor,
someone from your family.
Nobody in my family went to college!
My mom didn't understand
what I was going through,
my aunt or my cousin, nobody.
I used to walk around that fancy
campus and think, what am I doing here?
My mom works at a box store.
Who cares what your mom does for a living?
You did deserve to be there. You do.
- You let all that get in your head.
- How could I not?
Look, me and college are a bad match.
And I've made my peace with it.
I better get these out there.
Even if this checks out, I still don't
trust her. She's a liar and an addict.
- Eric...
- We give her the money,
what's to say that she
still won't call the cops?
Nothing. But if we
don't give her the money,
- you know she will.
- Great. So I not only lose my son,
I get to spend the rest of my life
wondering if she's gonna change her mind?
Yes, if you want to have any
chance at staying out of prison.
Fine. I'll give her the money.
But only because it'll buy me
some time to get my son back.
Okay, then.
I still have some of the
money that Angelo left me.
- It's not quite a hundred grand...
- No, no, no. I'm not taking your money.
- This is my problem.
- This is our problem.
I told you, I'm in this with you.
Will is like a son to me, and I love you.
I will do whatever it takes
to keep you out of jail.
Please, take the money.
I'll pay you back.
I'm not worried about that.
I'm worried about coming up with the rest.
- I know some people.
- What kind of "people"?
Someone who owes me a favor.
- I'll make some calls, track him down.
- Eric!
We'll talk about it later. You should
get to the shower, make an appearance.
Text me if you hear anything.
Oh!
I'm moving to London with Toby.
I'm quitting.
I've been wrestling with this for weeks.
I love the deaf program,
and working with you, it's my dream job.
But at the end of the day, I have
to do what's best for the baby,
and that means moving to England.
I'm sorry. I hope you don't hate me.
Thank you.
- You're moving to London?
- Yeah.
- Why didn't you tell me?
- Toby wanted to,
he just couldn't find the right moment.
Cake is served.
- Enjoy. (Laughs)
- Outside. Now.
Did you know that Toby and
Lily are moving to London?
Oh, my god.
Am I the last person in this
family to know everything?
I only found out two days ago.
Toby asked me not to say anything
'cause he wanted to tell you himself.
Yeah, well, looks like he missed the boat.
I'm sorry. Go ahead, ask me anything.
I'll tell you whatever I know.
(Sighs) Okay.
Eric. Do you trust him?
Eric is a good guy.
He only took Will because he was
in a really dangerous situation.
I'm sorry. Um, he... he
took Will? Like illegally?
Hope was a drug addict. Eric
had to get him out of there.
- So Eric is the kidnapper?
- Technically, yeah, I guess.
I know this looks bad.
And... he used to be in a gang.
Wow. This guy is turning
out to be a real prince.
No, it was a long time ago,
and I got over it when he...
When he what?
(Sighs) Okay, now I know
you're going to be mad.
I'm already mad.
Nacho tried to blackmail me.
Nacho tried to blackmail you?
It was months ago, and
Eric totally shut it down.
- It was amazing.
- And you didn't think that I should know about this?
It was the night of the storm.
Emmett was in town after
the whole Tank thing,
Grandma Bonnie was here,
Kathryn was really upset.
- Everyone had a lot going on.
- Daphne, Nacho affects me too!
- I had a right to know!
- You're right. I'm sorry.
Absolutely. Let's go open some presents.
Bay...
I just hate that Bay found out that way.
She'll be happy for you
eventually. Just give her time.
You think Melody will feel the same way?
Are you having second
thoughts about leaving?
Not about moving, I just hate
leaving Melody short-handed.
- People quit their jobs. It happens.
- Except I love my job.
And I'm leaving just as the
program is getting started.
I've worked really hard to get where I am.
Helping to build something
from the ground up.
I may never get an
opportunity like this again.
I'm just not ready to
close the door on my career.
It doesn't have to be closed
forever. You could always...
Lily, Kathryn, I am so sorry.
Oh, no, it's fine! We just missed you.
- How's the leaky pipe?
- It's holding.
- Oh.
- Um...
Thank you for covering for me. I owe you.
- How's Will?
- Hope called. Will is safe.
And Eric is working on a solution.
I think everything's gonna work out.
- (Laughter)
- All: Aww!
(Applause)
It's so sweet of Grandma
to send something. Love it!
- I love it.
- Okay. Well, let's do the next one.
Thank you. Ooh, heavy.
- Oh, wow. So elaborate.
- Oh!
It's a train set! Who's it from?
I'm so sorry. I didn't know.
I only learned today that
the boy has Down syndrome.
Oh, it's okay. It's a great gift.
- Yeah.
- Obviously, if I had known...
Oh, no, no. He's gonna love it!
It just might take him a
little longer to master.
- (Laughter)
- I know this one child at the park,
you can hardly even tell.
You might have one
that's barely noticeable.
- So, let's open another gift.
- Yeah. That's a great idea. Okay.
- So...
- These children are the sweetest thing.
Always hugging you, so affectionate.
Yes, why is that, I wonder?
You know, that's a fascinating question.
I don't know that all Down
syndrome children are any one thing.
Yes, but affection is clearly a
marked trait in DS individuals.
You know, one thing I do
know is that they're doing
amazing things these days
with chromosome therapy.
Basically, they shut down defective genes
by silencing them, turn them off.
I wouldn't be surprised
if 50 years from now,
they fix Down syndrome
altogether. Eradicated it.
That's amazing.
Who said they need to be fixed?
Oh. Well... that was a bad word choice.
Who said the gene is defective?
Again, bad choice of words.
I should've said "abnormal."
Not... the norm.
What's wrong with being abnormal?
Maybe it's good that they
see the world differently.
Maybe we don't always have to
value faster, stronger, smarter.
Kathryn, it's okay. You
don't have to defend...
No, no, no. Isn't it
possible that there's a reason
that not everyone on
the planet is the same?
Yes. But shortened life span,
health problems, decreased mental ability?
Of course we, as a race, want to cure that.
The fact that your family is
handling this so well is fantastic,
but trisomy 21 is a genetic mutation
that evolution or science
will get rid of someday.
We don't know that.
What I do know is that this is a
celebration of Lily and my grandson,
and I would like to keep it that way.
Bay, should we open another gift?
Yes, we can.
Professor, wait.
Well, now I've battled with both your moms.
Why did you let me into your class?
You impressed me.
I was giving you a chance to
prove that you were exceptional.
But you don't think that I am?
Because I'm "abnormal"?
I think your deafness
is a bigger obstacle to mastering
science than anticipated.
- (Scoffs)
- But there's no question
that you have a bright future,
and there are so many other ways that
you can make a difference in the world.
There is public policy, or social work...
you once told me not to give up so
easily when someone knocks me down.
That was really good advice.
I am going to be a doctor.
It might not be at the best
medical school in the nation.
And it might take me longer than
other people. But I will get there.
I am going to do it.
(Chuckles)
Bay: Okay. So...
Lily will pick a card.
And then whoever wrote
it can read it out loud
- to the rest of the group.
- Bay, if you don't mind?
Hi, everyone.
I'm so sorry for being late.
I just wanted to thank you
all for coming out today
to support Lily and Toby.
And a special thank you to Bay
for pinch-hitting as hostess.
I didn't have time to write out my advice,
so I'll just share it quickly. Um...
Lily...
Trust your gut, always.
Mother's intuition is real.
Listen to it.
If something doesn't feel right to you,
it probably isn't.
When Daphne was three,
she got very sick, very fast.
102 fever, vomiting.
So I rushed her to the E.R.,
and the doctor told me that
she had the stomach flu.
I should take her home and give
her fluids, and wait it out.
But as we towards the car,
I could tell that something
bigger was taking hold.
I had no idea what it was,
but I knew something wasn't right.
So I drove across town to another hospital,
and that's where they
diagnosed her with meningitis.
If I hadn't...
(Inhales, exhales)
When all is said and done,
you know your kid
better than any doctor,
any teacher...
Or expert.
You are so brave.
- Incredible story.
- (Regina chuckles)
- That's it.
- (All chuckle)
Bay: Okay, I'll go next. Um...
Well, I'm not a mom,
but I happen to have two.
(Laughter)
Uh, so I think that I know a little bit
about the, uh, mother-child relationship.
And for me,
the most important thing a mother can do
is be honest with her children.
Because in the end,
kids will always figure out the truth.
Um...
(Knocking)
I spoke to Daphne.
What else is new?
I'm sorry.
I should've told you about Hope.
And Atlanta.
And Nacho.
Honestly,
after Daphne and I dealt with it all,
I figured no one else needed to know.
So it was okay to just keep lying to me.
- No!
- And not just six months ago.
You lied to me this morning.
You told me it was a custody dispute,
when in reality, Eric kidnapped him.
I was trying to keep you out of it.
- Maybe that was a bad choice.
- I don't even know why I'm surprised.
After all, lying's been your M.O.
since you found out about the switch.
Look, I get it. You've
known Daphne a lot longer,
you two have this special
bond. But I'm your daughter too.
So why is it that you tell her
everything, and you tell me nothing?
Bay, it's not like that.
None of this was a choice.
- It just happened.
- That is a cop-out.
You made a choice. You
chose her, like always.
- Don't say that.
- Why not?
Because right now, it feels like
the last four years never happened.
What if you applied to UMKC?
- Daphne...
- You could live at home,
and you already know people there.
- Me, Natalie, Travis, Bay.
- I told you.
College and I aren't a good match.
No, S.L.U. and you weren't a good
match. That's one bad experience.
Not everyone is destined for college.
Fine! But you are.
You can't let this be it, Sharee.
You've got to try again, as scary as it is.
My entire family was watching.
I was gonna be the first.
I know how that feels.
It's a lot of pressure.
Look, I'm not having an easy time either.
And I almost let somebody talk me
into giving up on medical school.
But I'm gonna keep at it.
We can keep each other at it.
Melody's at UMKC.
Your family is close by. You
just need some support, that's it.
Just a little support.
Maybe.
Maybe? Maybe... ?
I said maybe, as in "I'll think about it."
Okay. (Laughs)
Well, we're officially guest-free.
Thank you, Kathryn. For everything.
Hey, I'll defend that little guy
against the world if I have to.
Oh! You know, I have
something I wanna tell you.
- What?
- Well, you know,
when you were talking
about leaving your job,
and how hard it was because
it's such a fantastic program,
I was thinking, that's what I want to do.
I want to be a part of
something that really matters.
So I had a long chat with Melody.
And I told her that I
was looking for a job,
and one thing led to another, and...
You... you're taking my job?
Yeah, just until she
can fill it permanently.
That... that's... wow!
I hope it eases your mind, knowing
you're not leaving Melody in the lurch.
Definitely. That's huge.
- Congratulations.
- Thank you!
Is the coast clear?
- Very funny.
- (Chuckles)
- Hey!
- Hey, baby.
- Oh!
- So, how'd it do?
- Exhausting, but brilliant.
- See? You survived.
- Looks like you did Bay in.
- Ha.
Lily: She was a wonderful hostess.
- So how'd we make out in the loot department?
- Oh, we scored big.
- Yeah.
- It'll probably cost a bundle to ship it all to London.
Oh, yeah. Sorry, babe.
Cat's out of the bag.
I was working up to it.
It's okay. I'm happy for you.
Sweetie, I'm literally falling asleep
- with my eyes open.
- Oh. Let's get you home.
- Bye. You'll can get the stuff tomorrow.
- Thank you.
- Thank you so much, both of you.
- You're welcome. Bye.
- Mm!
- Yeah. Thanks, guys.
- See you guys.
- Drive safe.
Honey, is everything all
right? Or are you just tired?
Bay?
I'm trying to figure out whether
I should tell you guys something.
Well, now you definitely should.
Kathryn: Honey?
Hi.
Sorry I had to take off.
Plumbing disaster averted.
Whatever's left to clean
up, just leave it to me.
You want to tell us why you let
a fugitive move into our house?
