That's top secret. But don't worry. I am fi--
Actually, i'm in excruciating pain.
But you could help me.
This is about justin. We have to talk to him.
He's been humiliated. He's vulnerable.
This is a perfect moment for us
to put Our collective foot in his ass about getting his act together.
Okay, great. I'm in. I think that's a brilliant idea.
But before i tell you where we are,
Do you know that new pharmacy on colorado?
What do you want?
So, kitty, tell us how you got interested in politics.
Right, right. Well, that--That is--
That--That's actually, um, a very, very funny story,

But when it comes to talking about my life--
Just say you got into politics Because you thought reagan was cute.
Okay, that is a good one.

This is highly un-Kevin of you.
Well, i'm taking a break.
I'm being kitty,

You know, in case, um, whoopi wants to ask me a question.
I have a question.
When am i getting my espinoza briefing?
- I need tprep. - Well, so do i.
- Show's tomorrow. - Committee's tomorrow.
- Do you want brain sex or not? - Yes, i do.
Well, then this is part of the deal.
Now don't worry. I will brief you,
but right now, I've gotta come up with a few more anecdotes.
But when you have the coconut here...
You don't suppose that's mom, do you?
No. It's probably housekeeping. Go check.
But i have taken a hammer...
Yes, ma'am.
Inside you can see...
Tommy.
I brought reinforcements.
Nice, uh, five-Star retreat.
Thanks. How's elizabeth?
She's, uh, she's good.
Good. So have i been disowned?
Yeah, by me.
Thanks for letting me be the one to tell mom That she was suffocating you.
Appreciate that.
Mom sent the cavalry. You must be, uh, in deep trouble.
Exactly right.
Actually, we're here for you.
- What? - Those, uh,
first graders, they can be pretty tough.
You told him. Thank you, sarah.
Yeah, and thank you for returning my calls.
You know, the two of you have a very unique way
Of expressing your love for the people who care about you.
Look, it's no big deal, all right? It's a bunch of kids.
You seemed pretty upset to me.
So what? Coop said it like it is. I mean, i'm a-- I have no life.
Well, you can always get a job tomorrow if you want one.
What, are you gonna hire me, sorting avocados?
Oh, i-I have an idea. Maybe i could be rebecca's secretary.
- Justin, you're in a rut. - Yeah.
I mean, seriously, what do you see yourself doing Like 10, 20 years from now?
I don't know. If i knew, i'd be doing it, all right?
Guys, seriously, what is this, like, a career intervention?
Look, justin, there's nothing wrong with not having That, you know,
long-Term plan per se--
But playing "super mario bros." All day long Probably shouldn't be your life goal.
You know what? I, uh, i really appreciate what you guys are trying to do,
But i'm not in the mood, okay?
And this hotel room is getting crowded, so i'm going--
- Where are you going? - I'm going home, kevin.
Oh, my god. That's it.
Of course it is. Right. Why didn't we think of that?
Home. We've gotta... no, no, no, no.
Justin, we've got to talk about this.
You're--You're not gonna let me leave, sarah?
Sit down.
This family is unbelievable.
Saul said you talked to sarah?
Kevin is with justin. I don't know where.
Oh, he's okay?
So she said.
I'm sorry. Are you mad at me?
No.
No, you were just trying to help.
But not actually helping.
All i know is, according to sarah, Kevin felt suffocated--
Okay, you know what?
I am sorry i put too many blankets on his bed,
That i use too much ointment on his wound,
That i don't know how to take his shirt off properly.
But he's my husband.
I should be the one taking care of him.
Then someone should have made that clear to me.
I just naturally assumed when you came to this house,
You wanted me to take care of him.
God, sometimes it's so impossible
for me to understand What people actually want from me.
Okay, you know what? I'm--I'm sorry i got in your hair.
I'll get out of it.
Fine.
Living in that house is like living in quicksand.
You get stuck.
Yeah, it was hard for all of us to get out.
- Well, not me. - What?
You fedexed your laundry home all through college.
Yeah, and billed it to the ojai account.
Look who's talking. You took six months to get all your stuff out.
That's right. Every week, you'd remember something you'd left there.
Yeah, well, dad did your term papers for you.
He was editing them.
Look, it's not like i'm planning on staying there forever.
I'm just there until i have a plan, all right?
And i also have no place to go to.
But you're not gonna get a plan As long as you're holed up there.
Yeah. You need to have some ramen,
Bounce some rent checks, let life suck a little bit.
And trust me, you will be motivated to figure it out.
Yeah, then you won't want to go near the place.
I mean, look at me.
Right.
Oh, my god. Scotty, look, i can explain everything.
Great. How about explaining to me
What part of "in sickness and in health"
Means leaving me at home with your mother?
I-I really had no choice.
You had plenty of choices. You just made the wrong ones.
I mean, the least you could have done Was told us we're being overbearg.
- No, it's not you. - Fine.
Then your mother was overbearing.
Look, neither of you are overbearing, okay?
It--It was me and these stupid dreams.
What dreams?
I mean, what dreams could be so bad That you flee without explanation?
They're about elizabeth, okay? I'm really sorry.
I'm just trying to figure a few things out.
what's to figure out?
Well, i know we're all meant to pretend Like it never happened...
- excuse me? What-- - But i am her biological father, tommy.
Wh--
- Oh, my god. I'm outta here, man. - What? Don't. Come...
Yeah, actually, uh, we, uh, we've gotta...
You know, look at the rental list and...
It's a great room.
I don't know. Sometimes it's just hard For mama bear to be on the sidelines.
Nora.
In the pantry.
I don't know where you and kevin are,
But i want you to know that if you ever need a roomy house,
I promise that i will let you be the one To undress your husband.
What are you doing, nora?
Don't talk to me like our mother.
Grab a glass and park yourself.
Anyway, scotty, i'm just sorry...
And i love you.
Okay. Bye.
Okay. This is nice and cozy and...
- safe. - It's a womb...
A womb within a womb.
He was right. Roger.
I'm--I'm nothing but a-A womb keeper,
Just a selfish, stubborn...
Smothering mother hen.
I don't know what you're talking about, nora.
I blamed scotty for kevin leaving.
I can't get out of the way.
And then he-- He waltzes in here,
This roger, this-- After 30-Some-Odd years--
Just wait a minute. Just... what am i missing?
What is it with the two of you, hmm?
well...
There was a party.
- The luau. - The luau, yes.
I guess i had more than my share of pi??
And william was his usual charming, funny self.
And he chatted up everybody and...
Everybody except me.
And then i met...
roger, And he talked to me all night.
And you hit on him?
Nora?
I flirted.
I just wanted william To see that another man was attracted to me.
G-God. So pathetic.
No, i don't think it's pathetic, Not if it worked.
Did it work?
No.
But that night, when i got home,
I sat in the girls' room for a long time And just watched them sleep, and...
For a while...
- That was enough. - Why are you mad at roger?
God. Because i-I look at him...
And i see this pathetic, Insecure woman that i was,
And i hate her.
And i hate that that's how he remembers me.
Nora, come on. That's crazy.
You can't let some silly litt incident from the past Dene who you are today.??
Really. And you were so busy being insecure,
You didn't even notice that he was trying to impress you.
Why else do you think he offered To do this job for free, hmm?
And you can't get a better architect than roger.
Okay, so i'm gonna reschedule your appointment. Yes?
Good. Then can we please get out of this womb?
Because my butt is killing me.
No. We are not going anywhere Until you tell me about your boyfriend.

Listen, she will take a little while, Then one day, she will turn up with--
With a whole basket of fresh linens.
That's how you'll know
that she's finally worked through The fact that you're no longer at home.
Look, i'm not worried about mom, sarah, okay?
I mean, you know, she did more than just cook for me.
She did more than-- Than just do the laundry.
She was...

Oh, she still will be.
I'm talking about my using, sarah.
In case you missed it,
The last time i lived alone, i, uh, i o.D.'D.
Do you think--Do you think i want to live with mom?

No. I know i have to get outta there.
- If you're not ready for this-- - No, it's not that i'm not ready.
I am ready. I-I think i'm ready. I don't know, sarah.
I'm--I'm terrified.
I know you guys want me to let life suck for a bit.
I just can't handle it sucking like it did last time.
I--There's--I can't go through that again, and i--
We don't want that either, justin.
Come on. You have been to rock bottom.
You don't want to go back there.
Those first graders,
they can't possibly understand What you did, what you've been through.
God, i can't.
But i do know that if anyone knows how to be brave, it's you.
I'm scared.
"I agree that i will under no circumstance
Advise elizabeth walker as to her true parentage"?
You--You really want me to sign this?
Look, julia's been asking how this is gonna go.
This was always the plan.
Plan? Tommy, there was never a plan.
You and i jumped into this with blinders on.
For there to have been a plan,
we would have to ??Ve talked about it first,
which we've never done.
Yeah, well, what's to discuss?
I'm just trying to do what's best for elizabeth.
Yeah, but this is as if i-I don't exist.
Well, what did you expect? You want to be her father?
No, that's not what i'm saying. Come on.
Well, that's not gonna happen.
I'm just saying it doesn't have to be like this, tommy.
Kevin, i'm her father.
Whatever dreams or feelings you're having,
Deal with them.
That's it.
Here you are.
Not too light. Not too dark. Just right.
Thanks, mom.
Can i... can i talk to you for a second?
Sure.
I, uh, i'm not sure how to say this to you.
I'm moving out, mom.
Oh, god. You, too? I am an overbearing mother.
No, mom. You've been amazing, all right?
And--And you've been incredibly patient And you opened up your house,
Which has been a safe zone for me,
And i-I needed it, mom.
So you chose to be here, right?
100%. I-I totally did. I totally did. I just...
You know, i need to figure some stuff out, mom, And...
are you smiling or are you crying?
I'm proud of you.
I'm so proud of you.
Yes... it is time,
And i want you to know,
i have loved every single second Of having you here.
Me, too.
So...
do you have a place?
Yeah. Yeah. I-I do. I do.
You know, i know where i can get some great linens on sale.
- Should i pick them up for you? - Yes, please.
- Really? - ??
- Okay, good. Eat your waffle. - Yes. Yes, mom.
these robes are like wearing heaven.
How much do you think they'd charge if we stole one?
We already did last time we were here.
How do you think i found you?
- I was wondering about that. - Yeah.
Was that when that kid Peed in the planter by the pool?
Oh, my god. Sammy the sprinkler.
You complained to his dad, And somehow you became the bad guy.
I was the bad guy. He was just being a kid.
Come on.
If he was mine, i'd do exactly the same.
Do you think we'll ever have kids of our own?
Yeah.
Yeah, definitely. I--I'd... i'd love kids someday.
It's weird. I grew up thinking i'd never be a dad.
Well, it's not that weird. I mean, you're gay.
No, no, no, it's not that.
It's just, i wasn't sure if i'd be any good at it,
You know, putting somebody else's needs first all the time.
But these dreams...
In the last one, she was crying, And...
i knew she really needed me And that i had to be there.
But the weird thing is, It didn't feel like a burden anymore.
It just felt amazing.
It's like that famous line-- "In dreams begin..."
"Begin responsibility."
Yeah.
Whenever we decide, i'm ready.
I think you would make an incredible father.
Okay. Let's put this on you.
There you go, honey.
Elizabeth...
You have a visitor.
Look. It's uncle kev.
Don't let uncle scotty see you in that princess nightgown.
He'll want that for himself.
I'm gonna go make elizabeth a bottle.
Okay.
I'm just gonna put on her diaper A little bit better.
- Lie down, honey. - You want a hand with that?
No, no. I-I got it.
Good, 'cause i'd have no idea what to do.
Look...
With everything going on right now, The one thing i am sure of...
Is that you're her father. So...
I'll defer to you.
You'll always be a part of her life.
Good.
As long as i can be the crazy uncle Who buys her tons of presents
And gives her a place to crash when mom and dad fight...
All right. Look, i'm gonna go help mommy.
You stay with uncle kevin, okay?
Careful.
Got her.
Hey. Hey, pretty lady.
Hey, pretty lady.
How are you doing?
I've been thinking a lot about you recently.
What's with all this drooling?
You gotta quit that by the time you get into boys...
Or girls.
One never knows.
