Previously on Brothers and Sisters:
Warren. Yes, we slept together. It is what it is.
You're wrong. I see you and I fall ten stories. Every time.
Scotty, are you a client?
I'm more than a witness, but all he ever talks about is the case.
You refused to be in my life for three years. I don't know what it's about.
Alcohol is my gateway to pills. People are my gateway to alcohol.
I think you should move in too. Kidding.
They all think that I don't know that my husband had an affair
with that woman Holly over there.
With a cunning little cottage built for two to go with it.
What on Earth would possess her to put up this picture?
Maybe Kitty won't notice.
Tommy, look at it. How can she not notice?
She's the only one not in the picture. She'll notice.
Why wasn't she there?
She couldn't get away from New York. She had that speech about women and power.
The speech had nothing to do with it. It was the KittylMommy cold war.
This is just one of the little aftereffects.
I looked so good that day. That guy had stopped cutting my hair.
Mom and Dad look so happy.
Julia is a babe.
Mommy, save me!
- Slow down. - I'm gonna kill you!
- Gabe, don't chase your brother. - He spit in my mouth!
- I don't care. Slow down, Gabe. - Wow, Sarah. Tough stepmom.
- Mommy, help me! - Oh, God.
They're too young to appreciate the pleasures
of spitting in someone's mouth.
You'd know.
Paige, we're about 60 percent water. So you want to stay hydrated.
Could you please give me a hand with Cooper?
He's going crazy.
He's outside. Gabe's got it under control.
Come on, Sarah. I just have him for a week.
What's up, little chicken?
- I got thirsty. - She overdid it playing with the guys.
They can be very trying, can't they, when they've got it all under control?
You don't think that's a good spot for it?
There is no good spot for it, Mom. Kitty's not in it.
She's not gonna care.
She was probably busy that weekend. It's a really good picture.
I'm back. Oh, God. Hi.
- Hi. - God, I hate that market.
It looks like everybody just came... from hair and makeup.
What's wrong?
- Nothing. - Nothing.
Justin! There's groceries in the car!
- Hey, you want a Scotch? - No. I need to talk to you.
- I can listen while pouring. - You can barely listen while hearing.
Hey.
I got a job for you.
Oh, are you Dad now?
My friend's the manager of Sunset Holloway Grand. There's a bellman job.
The guys at the door? They're hustlers.
You know how people run out of chances and you can smell it on 'em?
You are Dad now. At least we know.
Just take the job.
You know who I saw at the market? I saw that woman.
That crazy woman. What was her name? Sloane Dodelson.
- That loud golf lady? - Yeah.
I have been dodging her call for a month.
She is, like, desperate for you to respond to some golf invite.
That dreadful husband-and-wife golf tournament?
- Yes. - It's such a pageant.
They want me to go because they wanna honor your father.
For his golf game?
No. Not for his golf game. For the man who he apparently was,
but I don't have anybody to play with.
Oh. Kevin plays.
- What? No, Kevin doesn't. - Yeah, Kevin does play.
- He played on the high school team. - That's right.
I had a crush on Matthew Brown. I joined everything he joined.
Even Future Farmers of America.
- He grew a prizewinning pumpkin. - Ooh, I bet he did.
Missing it is not the worst thing in the world.
That Dodelson woman is so boozy, and her husband cheats.
At golf. At golf.
It's better just to let it go. I'm letting it go.
I totally agree. Gone.
But Dad is being honored, Kevin.
I'm not gonna ask your brother to go. He hates that place.
They're all such homophobes.
I did read in the club bulletin they're starting a Thursday league for lesbians.
Am I the only one that finds that somehow more troubling?
You're Mom's lawyer, she's your client,
they're honoring Dad. You have to play.
Yeah. You have to play, Kevin.
- Hi, everybody. - Hi.
I have a Volnay and a Côtes du Rhône. That's pretty good.
Crack it open.
- Uncle Saul, you play golf, right? - I hate golf. Tennis, I'm there.
All right. I'm not going. It's settled.
- Good. I totally agree. Settled. - Sister, we have work to do. In there.
Gotta sign some papers. Julia.
Are you really gonna let her forgo this?
I have a tentative date set for that day.
- You do not. - I do.
- Who with? - What?
Who with?
Look, in light of recent tragic events,
I don't think Mom should turn up at the Sierra Vista Country Club
and pay homage to a man that lied to her for 30 years.
But she said she wanted to go.
She didn't. She also said I don't have to.
That's her way of asking, dumbass.
Paige?
Oh, boy. I can see it now.
Ooh, ooh, yeah.
Shoo!
Is that me playing golf or having sex?
All right. So the house we paid for is now Holly's.
Once you finish signing.
If I were her, I would sell it and move somewhere cheap... and sleazy.
Preferably on the other side of the world.
She's not a terrible person, Nora.
What are you saying?
Let me tell you something, Saul, my darling,
I managed to get through my lifetime without ever touching anyone's husband.
It's not that hard.
I see. And that's the only sin? Adultery?
That's the only thing that matters? She's an entire human being.
There's more to her than this one mistake.
I can't stand you defending that woman.
The only woman I'm defending is you.
- From whom? - Yourself.
And your own self-righteousness.
Life is lonely, Nora. It's long and lonely,
and there are so many evils in this world.
I would think you'd let someone off the hook
for falling in love with the wrong person.
If I don't give that wine some air, it won't be worth drinking.
So if you'll excuse me.
Hello?
Hi. Am I interrupting something?
Kind of. I'm on a date.
Oh, OK. I'll call you later.
No. Wait. Kitty, it's a terrible date. I'm glad you called.
I was praying for a reason to leave the table.
- Well, here I am. - So, what's the skinny?
Well, you went back to New York two weeks ago, and I'm missing you badly.
Can I say that even though I cheated on you,
and I made the biggest mistake of my life?
I guess so.
You know how sorry I am about...
No more apologies.
Well, don't sleep with her.
You can't ask me to do that.
- Can we talk next week? - Whenever you want.
- Bye. - Bye.
- Hey. - Hey.
Cooper down?
Oh, no. Paige. She stayed up way too late last night.
I don't know how you guys do it. Two kids, all day, every day.
Gabe on the weekends.
Most of the time I'm grateful for it, you know. I do better when I'm busy.
But Sarah.
Oh, please. She's my sister.
Mmm.
She's busy with work. We don't see each other much.
And I just... I get the feeling.
What?
That there's something that she's not telling me.
Well, you know, Sarah's like that. She always retreats into her work.
She's just like our dad that way.
But, well, she's not like our dad in the other way, in case you're wondering.
I'm sure it's just a busy time. It'll get better.
Yeah. I'm sure.
- Did you tell him about the job? - He told me.
About the golden opportunity holding the door for geezers and whores.
Golf tournament, you taking Mom?
Why is it always me? Why don't you take her?
Hey. What's the powwow about?
Oh, wow, I... I guess I didn't notice that.
When was that taken?
- While ago. - Dinner's ready.
- Dinner. - Yeah.
Gabe. OK, you're sitting...
OK, little man, you're over here with Mommy.
Your favorite, chicken. Yay.
- Mom? - Yeah.
Why did you hang up that picture?
I'm not in it.
It's a beautiful picture, Kitty. It was a beautiful day.
I wasn't there.
Kitty, you weren't there for a lot of things.
Come on, everybody. Let's sit.
Oh, it's you.
Yeah. I thought I'd stop by.
I'm shocked and awed. Come in.
Canelés.
Can-what?
Your feelings aside, I just don't get why she would hang it.
The picture? I don't know.
So, what is this visit about?
Sarah, I just wanna be here more. And I finally get to.
After all these years, I finally get to be cool Aunt Kitty.
Hey, Cooper.
- Yay. Guess who's here. Look. - Hey, Kitty.
Does Paigey like canelés?
I don't think Paige's ever had canelés. Neither has her mother, for that matter.
I used to have them every Sunday at Cafe Lalo in New York.
- Mmm. - Then I would have the frozen berries.
Why didn't I trade lives with you?
I know that Diana Vakili was very good with the Ouija board,
but I don't think she had the power to make us trade lives.
But she was tied in to something, though.
She was a very powerful girl.
Cooper, this one's for you.
I hate those. I want a Toastee Treat.
I promised him a Toastee Treat if he ate something real.
That's OK. I love children and their impulses. Where's Paigey?
Paige is still in bed. Joe's getting her up, cool Aunt Kitty.
If you guys ever need a babysitter...
- Do you know a good one? - Me.
Seriously. If you ever need a night out.
- No. Our kids are Democrats. - I know that.
You know, if I ever get a life, I might take you up on that.
- Could you watch him for a sec? - Of course. That's the whole point.
Joe, Is Paige up? I have to get going.
Come on. Cooper, give it a try.
Cooper, please, no. Come on. These are really expensive. Eat.
I don't see what the big deal is, but if it's offensive,
I'll take it down.
You're not taking it down, are you? I am.
I find it extraordinary you put it up in the first place.
Oh, look what's playing at the El Portal Theater.
- Psycho? - Two for the Road.
You ever seen it?
Albert Finney, Audrey Hepburn. Oh.
It's so like your father and me on our trips.
They go through this tunnel and come out, and the years have gone by.
- Mom, about the golf tournament. - Yes. What?
You're not upset we're not going?
No. That dreadful thing? I called and canceled.
Really? Good. Then I'll firm up my plans for tomorrow.
The toast to your father, it's sad to miss that, but it's all right.
We should go.
Kevin, no. No, you don't wanna go. You call, firm up your plans.
No, the toast to Dad. Let's do it.
- Really? - Yeah. Really.
- Really? - Yes. Really.
All right, I'll call and uncancel. Kev, you are such a doll.
OK. We're going.
Whoa. Good thing I have my pants on.
Yeah, otherwise I might have totally lost control.
- I... I'm Justin. It's my first day. - I never would have guessed.
What's the deal with this dude Tyler?
Is he cool or a total hard-ass?
Total hard-ass.
Oh, great. Can he tell if you're stoned?
I think you just told her.
Keep your pants on out there, Stonehenge.
I wanna know who's gonna break the stalemate?
Me. Because we've run out of time.
For all of us here at Red, White & Blue, I'm Jack Bishop.
Thanks and good night.
- And we're out. - All right.
Does anyone wanna get a drink?
- No. Thanks. - No, thanks.
Hey, guys. Hold up. I just got a call.
David Silver is leaving the Democratic Party and running for president.
He wants to announce it on Wednesday's show.
- That's amazing. - It is, but there's a catch.
He doesn't wanna be tag-teamed. He wants a half-hour with one of you.
- I'm most confrontational. - That's not true.
- I've been on the show longer. - I did an hour with Jim Jeffers.
I know these issues up and down.
I just wanna do what I do, do my thing on this show without him yelling at me.
- OK, we'll flip for it. - Oh, no.
It's fair. Heads or tails?
I am not going to let it be determined by a childish act like flipping a coin.
Tails.
Heads.
Fine.
Can you just ask him one thing for me?
How he's making sure his candidacy doesn't turn into a cult of personality.
Because lack of affiliation with a party is great on paper.
I'm no believer in the "great man" school of history.
I just wanna know, not as a pundit,
but as a voter, as an American,
who he has ready to hold him accountable when his status as a maverick
is just a little more attractive to him than his logical consistency?
Tails.
Yeah, that's OK. I will... I'll yell from home.
It's less than 48 hours away. Do you want some assistants put on this?
That's OK. I could handle it.
- Here. - What is this?
His policy manifesto. Five hundred pages plus.
OK. Looks like I'm gonna pull an all-nighter.
See you.
- Hey, Sarah. - Hey. Got a second?
Yeah. What's up?
I wanna take you up on your offer. To sit the kids.
Oh. Yeah.
Joe had a music lesson cancel tomorrow night, so I made reservations at Pastis.
Perfect. I'd love to baby-sit.
You're not too busy?
Oh, no. It's fine. I'm not busy at all.
- OK. Hey, I gotta run. - OK. See you.
- Hey, sis? - Yeah.
Thanks for this.
- Sure. Bye. - Bye.
Oh, man.
Out of the way! I can't see when you're standing in front of the TV!
Out of the way. I can't see!
Hey, Cooper. Cooper, Cooper! Cooper, no, no, get down. Cooper, get off the table!
Get down and sit next to your sister, or you're gonna have to go to bed.
Like two tickets to the gun show?
Can I have another Polar Fudgie?
No, Cooper, I told you. One Polar Fudgie.
- You said two. - I said one.
You said two.
I said one, and you know what? That is a big fat lie.
And you and I cannot have a relationship based on lies.
Now, listen to me about that because I know.
- You said two. - Can you pause it? I have to pee.
I showed you. You just hit this button right here.
But it's not working.
Hmm.
Hey, didn't you just go to the bathroom five minutes ago?
- Sorry. - It's OK. Don't be sorry. Go on.
You know what, Cooper?
You are like your own little French Revolution.
You said two.
I am just gonna
Hey. What are you doing here?
Thought you might need a study partner.
Oh. A study partner. Like in high school?
No, a study partner like in
"professional journalist who said yes to babysitting,
even on the night before a gigantic interview. "
Brought questions and background information,
in case, you know, you want some extra.
- Right, but can you work one of these? - I think so.
OK. Well, then you're hired.
- Cooper, where did you get that? - I hate you.
Hmm.
- Well, we finally did it. A win. - Yeah.
But a good game played by all.
I guess that was the last Dodelson-Walker match.
I'm sure William is smiling at your victory after all these years.
I would hope you got a kick outta this tourney,
seeing it's in honor of Bill.
I'm very grateful. The turnout is fabulous,
Golf is a healing endeavor. That's the great lesson here.
A good game of golf can solve all the world's problems.
It's certainly helped in Iraq.
You know, Kevin, you got a tight swing.
So I'm told, Sid. So I'm told.
You gotta loosen up. You'll see improvement.
Speaking of loosening up, you and Sloane will have to tell me
where you got your matching flasks.
- See you inside. - We'll see you inside.
Yeah. I'd like to roast them over a spit with apples in their yaps.
It's almost over. Oh, you've been so great, Kevin. You're such a darling.
I swear this thing would've killed me. One drink, one toast, and we're leaving.
About time.
I can't believe we pulled it out.
- Let's go. We're leaving. - What about the toast?
This is too much, I'm not going in there.
This is why we came.
I was wrong. I'm not going in there. Please? Please, let's just go home, OK?
OK. OK, let's call it a day.
Of course, we could go see Two for the Road.
Yeah, yeah. Yeah, we could.
Lets catch the 9:00. It would really redeem everything.
You look like you could use some cheering up.
OK. Yeah. Let's do it. Two for the Road.
OK. Two for the Road. Well, you haven't seen it,
so I'm not gonna tell anything, but there's one moment...
Scrub harder, boy.
Hey, boss. I thought our first meeting went great, downstairs.
It went very well. I love it when new staff show up stoned on their first day.
It really sets a tone.
We used to know each other. San Marino High?
Wait a second. We had classes together?
Choices and Challenges and Ancient History.
Both which brought me wisdom, seeing as I'm your bellboy now.
And I'm your boss. It's a great country.
So, what happened?
Uh, you know, I just went through some stuff.
These need to go up to 406.
406. Groovy.
Hey. They're asleep?
Yeah. I feel like I just ran a marathon. In ski boots.
Well, your prep for this interview looks fantastic.
Well, thank you.
- You look beautiful tonight. - Oh, Warren, you know, stop.
I'm sorry. You do, OK? And it's fun seeing you with kids.
- Warren, you know what? You lied. - About what? I didn't lie.
Yes, you did. This is just like high school.
You came over here claiming to be my study partner, and...
...you really just wanted to say that.
- I wanna say a lot more than that. - Well, you can't.
I'm sorry, but, I know what we did... it was a mistake.
And I really wanna make it work with Jonathan, and...
...I'm not gonna just stop something old for the possibility of something new.
It's just not the kind of person I am.
When I'm with you, I don't know what kind of person I am.
And I find that kinda interesting.
- Aunt Kitty? - Hey. Hey, honey, what's up?
Can I have a glass of water?
You are really a thirsty girl lately, aren't you?
- I'm 60 percent water. - Mmm.
Right. Warren, I really appreciate your help. I mean it.
You got it.
- Can you let yourself out? - Sure. Yeah, I can do that.
OK. Let's go.
Your brothers and sisters hate culture. I don't understand.
They don't hate it. They're real people with better things to do.
Would you excuse me for a second?
Mr. Walker.
Of course you'd come see Two for the Road, you tough attorney.
I'm so sorry. I know I was supposed to call you.
My mom kinda hijacked my day.
I find ways to keep busy. There's the gym, gainful employment, suitors.
I got the tickets.
This is the lawyer I mentioned. Kevin Walker, Randy Stewart.
- Hi. - Hi. I've heard a lot about you.
Really? Well, he's not a very accurate witness.
If they're bad, know that he exaggerates.
Well, they haven't been bad at all. He said you were very honorable.
Well, you know, that's just my suits.
They... they give the impression of...
Scotty. Hi.
Oh, Mrs. Walker. This is my friend, Randy.
- Hi. Well, we should sit together. - No. No. No.
Well, you know,
I'm sure we won't get four seats together.
We... Come on. Let's go. Nice to meet you, Randy.
- We'll wait in the car. - Bye.
- Be there in a sec. - Did you guys have a good time?
Yeah. You know, we did our usual Sarah and Joe thing. It was fine.
- Hey. - What?
- What? I gotta go. - I think something is up with Paige.
What's that supposed to mean?
She just seems to be really thirsty. She's peeing a lot and sleeping a lot.
Look, I know my daughter pretty well.
I'm with her every day, and I don't appreciate being accused.
- I am... I'm just trying to help. - Well, no one asked for your help.
The next time you have something to say about me,
like how I retreat into my work like Dad,
or whatever the hell it was you said to Joe, could you please say it to my face?
'Cause I would really appreciate it.
Thanks for baby-sitting.
Kevin, I have one last document
for your mother to sign regarding the sale of the house.
They just faxed it to me from the title company.
If you could have her sign it...
Of course. Wouldn't be a day in my life without some errand involving Mom.
Well, welcome to my life for the past... forever.
Have you given any more thought to getting a criminal lawyer?
You're talking about the pension fund, huh?
That lovely situation your father left us with.
- Yeah. The clock is kinda ticking. - I was promised six months.
A lot of good people beg for more time and end up burying themselves.
- We go to the authorities... - It would destroy your mother.
OK, it could destroy you if we wait any longer.
Believe me, Kevin, I know.
Two weeks ago she found out about your father and Holly.
If she learns that he put the company and the future of her family,
her children and grandchildren, in that kind of jeopardy.
No, I can't let that happen.
- You sounded so ignorant, Sherry. - Sorry.
Promise me that when we go to have dinner that you'll keep your mouth shut.
- I can't afford to look bad tonight. - I said I'm sorry.
Hey, smiley, why don't you do your job and mind your own business?
So we're not talking anymore. That's what the deal is.
No. I've been talking ever since I came home. And listening.
- Your lesson was terrific. - That is not what I mean.
You mean are we gonna talk about what I'm angry about,
and the answer to that is "no. " Talk to Kitty.
Sarah, you know how I feel about your family.
The gossip traffic moves so fast, I stay on the sidewalk to not get killed.
Then why did you talk to her about me, about us?
I'm at the point right now. Sarah...
I'm willing to try anything to find a way in.
I am the way in to me, Joe.
Not through my hypercritical, expert-in-all-things-marital,
little perfect sister.
- You don't talk to me about anything. - Because I can't.
Because the mess that my dear departed father left me to clean up
is so filthy, so rotten that if I tell you, you could go to jail.
Your dad did something illegal?
Very.
What's for dinner?
- Your grandmother's crazy spaghetti. - Blah.
I know. I have chicken tenders. Where's your sister?
Asleep.
She was tired when she came home from school. She took a nap.
- Since when? - Three-thirty.
It's almost six.
She's tired. I figured, let her sleep.
Paige?
Paige!
If you didn't wanna go, you shouldn't have offered.
- Did I really have a choice? - Yes, of course you did.
I didn't feel like I did, and that's the point, Mom. I never do.
You know, do you think I like being your plus one?
Do you think it makes me feel good that I have nothing?
Nothing? You have a mother who loves you.
I have a mother that loves me and is terrified of being alone
and thinks it's her gay son's job
to fill a void that even Dad knew better than try and fill.
I don't wanna do this.
I had a date with Scotty last night, and that's where I should have been!
Not out on the town with my friggin' mom!
What are you up to? They can hear you down the block.
It's manipulation. It's manipulation, pure and simple.
You've done it to Uncle Saul, and now to me.
Uncle Saul? What does he have to do with it?
What? Nothing. I... Nothing.
I was just with him this morning to get the title for him.
He talked to you about that woman, about Holly.
No, he talked about you.
He spends so much time considering different ways in which
you might get hurt by this action or information?
He has feelings for that woman. I knew it. I knew it!
He said nothing about a woman. Sweet God, won't you let me finish?
You know, he spends his whole life in terms of you, and I do too.
I just wish you would be a little more sensitive to that.
Sensitive? Sensitive? Kitty, am I insensitive?
Mom, I have to go to the studio. I have a very important interview.
What, I'm insensitive?
You hung up a family picture without me. Don't ask if I think you're insensitive.
I am not gonna be ganged up on here.
This is so, so totally unfair! Totally, totally unfair!
I lost my husband once, and then I lost him again to that woman.
I put that picture up because I was trying to hold on to one good day, one!
I'm sorry you weren't there, but it was your decision to run off to New York!
Do you really think it was my decision to move to New York?
You drove me away.
I'll get it.
Hello.
Whoa, Sarah, calm down. What are you saying? She's what?
Yeah, yeah, of course. We'll be right there. OK, bye, bye.
Uh, Joe and Sarah just took Paige to the hospital.
She's been asleep for a few hours. She's not waking up.
Justin.
Tyler. I have a room etiquette question for you.
Get up.
When they say "come in" and they're doin' it like crazed weasels,
is it proper etiquette to pour the tea for them, or is it?
You do whatever they ask.
Sorry. There's only so much slumming I'm willing to do.
Slumming would be a step up for you.
You're on the floor in a hotel hallway wasted out of your mind.
Jeff will take you to the break room. When you can drive, go home.
Why not fire me? I mean, why keep me around?
I don't know. Maybe because...
...I know who you used to be in high school, Justin.
You were the boy with the sweetest smile.
You made the future look easy.
And I wanna give him a second chance.
Well, she had a rough go of it, but she's gonna be just fine.
Her blood glucose is down to 170, which is high, but it should be normal soon.
I just feel so dumb I didn't see it.
She was right in front of me, and I...
Hey, we caught it. That's the important thing.
Diabetes is a disease she can live with and live fully.
Dr. Stein...
I know. Thank you.
I want to keep her here so she can get used to the needles and the whole thing.
It can be a daunting, and I don't wanna send you guys home feeling unprepared.
As long as it takes.
I want you to know something, though. I see a lot of kids come through here,
but I don't see many with that many people in the waiting room.
- We're kind of a tribe. - Yes, you certainly are.
- I love her so much. - I do too.
- And I love you. - I love you too.
I don't understand, It took me an hour and 15 minutes to get here.
Shortcuts don't work anymore.
Used to cross town in like a half-hour.
Shortcuts still work.
Hey, I just got the message. Is she OK?
She's gonna be fine. They're with the doctor.
OK.
Why aren't you at work?
'Cause I got the call from Joe about Paige. Back off, man.
I got off early for, like, you know, good behavior.
You not being there has nothing to do with you being totally high right now?
What are you talking about?
Look, everybody else might sit around and feel bad for you, but I won't.
I didn't ask for your sympathy, or your help!
- When are you gonna grow up? - Get off!
- You're a piece of work, just like Dad! - Get off of me!
I'm not like him.
Dad never stopped caring about what you did with your life. I do.
I stop right now. I stop today.
- I'm all right. - I know.
Hi.
I've never come into one of these places before.
The hospital chapel. It always seems so generic and lame.
And, oh, all the emergency rooms I've been into with you kids.
Tommy and his broken arm and his broken ankle.
You and your asthma. It was so scary.
Do you remember Kevin and Sarah and the super glue mess?
Yeah.
Justin.
Oh, Justin.
I'm so worried about us.
About you and me?
All of us, the family. I don't know how we're gonna get through this.
So much is changing since your father died.
It feels like everything we swallowed down or papered over or just
chose to ignore and put off fixing is coming out to haunt us.
Kitty, did I drive you away?
- Mom. - Did I really?
Because I swear I'll never forgive myself.
We did it together.
Whatever it was that happened between us, we did it together.
I went out to crazy New York and I found myself.
Or the beginning of a self.
Maybe it was supposed to happen.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
I don't need you to agree with me. I don't need you to do anything.
I just need you.
I was wrong to hang that picture. I am so sorry.
- It's all right. - No, it's not all right.
I was trying to hang on to some image I had of your father instead of...
...reaching out to you.
Paige is awake.
Come on.
This is the best bottle of cheap wine I could find.
Why not a really big, celebratory killer of a bottle?
Because sometimes, with wine... you wanna celebrate a small victory.
If you can find a modest surprise, from a sturdy grape,
that doesn't cost an arm and a leg, you, my dear,
are in synch with the rest of the world.
Understand?
I never understand you, Saul, but I like your wine.
- Cheers. - Cheers.
Your take on the Middle East is...
You know, he's actually being a lot more artful than I thought he would be.
Wow, what a relief. Jonathan, I have to go.
You know what? I'll call you tomorrow and we'll plan a weekend somewhere, OK?
Bye.
- Hey. - Hey.
What are you doing here?
Joe stayed overnight at the hospital.
I figured Cooper and I could use a sleepover.
Mmm, yeah. How's Paige doing?
She's asleep.
She's stable, which is more than I can say for her mother.
You were right about Paige. I'm sorry.
You were right about me.
I never should have said anything to Joe.
That's all right.
You know, I just... sometimes I get jealous.
- Of me? - Mm-hmm.
Get serious.
It's true, I do. I'd trade lives with you in a second.
I'm really gonna need you, Kitty.
You know, with doctors' appointments, and work is...
Sarah? Hey, Sarah, I'm there.
Oh, I just realized. Your show. Were they OK with you?
Yeah. You know, I didn't miss anything. I was right where I was supposed to be.
Oh, you're the best.
Saul?
You got that look. That "Nora has a plan" look.
No. After a night like tonight, I have no plans, only questions.
What kind of questions?
Do you have feelings for Holly?
Feelings on a grand scale? No.
Human sympathy, beginning of a friendship? Yeah, maybe.
Well, if you ever decide or admit or discover...
...there's more than that,
you have my blessing, OK?
Sister?
I appreciate your blessing. Deeply.
But I didn't ask for it.
- I know. - And I don't need it.
That's fair. That's completely fair.
Hey, can I talk to you for a sec?
No.
Come on, man. Just let me talk to you.
I meant what I said at the hospital, Justin. I'm done.
What you need there is a big ugly thing with macramé and twine,
like a wall sculpture from the '60s.
From the flea market. We'll go.
We'll call the guy I like and his boyfriend. They can meet us there.
You took down the abomination.
What are you gonna put there?
It doesn't need anything. It's perfect just the way it is.
Emptiness.
Emptiness. No, no, no, no, no. There will be no emptiness in my house.
So, what are you gonna put there, Mom?
