Previously in Masters of Sex...
Oh, my God!
If you really want to learn about sex,
then you're gonna have to get yourself a female partner.
Dr. Masters. We haven't yet met. Are you here to interview.
Can you squeeze me in now?
All I could think about the entire drive home
was kissing you.
Well, friends can kiss.
All I do know for sure is I am going to marry that woman.
My wife is coming in next week.
There is no way the great Bill Masters
is going to admit he's shooting blanks.
Why can't I give my husband a child?
Yet we sit huddled in the dark
like prudish cavemen,
filled with shame
when the truth is, nobody understands sex.
And science holds the key.
The provost of the entire university will be watching me.
He's not watching you. He's watching science.
Well, it's a remarkable feat.
The phase we're considering you for is couples.
Coup... couples?
Nice to meet you.
I'm, uh... anonymous.
I'm anonymous, too.
You are my friend.
Oh, Jesus Christ. Do not say "Friend."
You are! You are my friend!
Friends don't fuck.
I'm sorry that I hurt you. That was never my intention.
We're going to be watching couples have sex.
The likelihood of us transferring
all this libidinous energy onto our patients is high.
Why don't you just come out and say
whatever it is you're trying to say?
We should undertake the research with each other.
Can I take the weekend to think about this?
Of course.
YYeTs.com
Cereal and orange juice.
Or toast!
- OK. - Tessa, get out of the way!
Stop pushing me, Henry.
I thought that...
we could discuss your proposition.
If that's what we're calling it.
I would like to clear this up.
I did take the weekend as I said I would to consider your proposal.
And I've come to the conclusion
that it was an unreasonable request...
on your part.
And so my answer is no.
You're old enough to pour your own cereals, Henry.
Captain Kai is moving No. 1 prisoner Topknot
to the space pat.
It's good news. You both need to finish your juice. Tess...
You too, please.
I just want... I wanted to say thank you.
For your offer.
Your proposal is an interesting one. Us...
in the study together.
Although, it does put me in a curious predicament.
I'm intrigued and this...
the work is compelling and...
relevant. And I do feel that I can make a real contribution...
Yes or no, Virginia. I'm busy.
Mom! Sergent Baldwin Black has been bringing prisoner Topknot
to the end of the iron chamber.
- Mom. - Sweetheart, we're going to miss the bus.
It's why they go to the space rail.
To cool down. Then they find the boy Joey...
A stowaway.
Mom?
Hurry up, let's go.
Thank you. Come on, Tess.
Hey, Mom.
The best part is captain Kai gives the boy Joey a real stun gun.
I was trying to tell you...
Now I'm going to miss my bus, Henry.
I hear you.
I'll take these.
Okay, have a good day. Take this.
You too.
I've thought about your proposal.
And if saying no means losing my job, then I'll do it.
Although the truth is, I'd rather not.
And not because I don't think highly of you,
and respect you enormously, I do. But...
Such an unconventional arrangement
it could jeopardize my position here.
And I care about this job,
I don't want to ruin it by complicating it.
I hope you can understand that.
Good morning.
Coffee's hot.
The American Obstetrics's dinner is Thursday.
You're speaking last.
I have your notes.
Senator Ronson called twice this morning
and said he will only speak to you.
And...
Also, I wouldn't mind a moment of your time.
I...
I've thought about...
your proposal.
That the two of us participating in the study together.
There is no study.
- There...
- I just return from provost Scully's office.
He inform me that...
someone told him that my sex study
had progress to copulation between couples.
Which incensed the provost to such a degree that
he shut down my study as of this morning.
- Who would ever... - I warned you...
About sleeping with Haas.
I told you it was dangerous and unprofessional.
I also warned you about discussing the study with him.
Yet you did both.
Knowing the risks involve...
- Ethan would never... - You defied me!
You jeopardize the study.
So as a result, you're fired.
I've called Human Resources,
I expect you to sit at your desk untill your replacement is hired
At which time,
you'll be terminated from the hospital staff entirely.
Dr. Masters' office.
Yes, this is Mrs. Johnson.
Henry's been suspended?
Oh if you're with Ethan, I'm not...
I'm not with Ethan.
Go ahead, get on your gown, so we can talk.
I was gonna come by your office.
I want to talk to you in here.
Since I'm now the one that's treating you.
You? What happened to Ethan?
Dr. Haas is not the best fertility doctor in the Midwest.
I am.
Shouldn't my wife have the very best?
I... I don't understand.
When did this happened?
Why?
It's important for me to know that I'm doing everything I can.
For you, for us.
To give us a family.
So we need to do a blood panel.
Ethan did a blood panel.
Another blood panel.
Progesterone and luteinizing hormone are repeated each cycle.
We'll finish the test today
we'll do the cervical capping tomorrow.
I want you on your back for 16 hours this time.
Feet in the stirrups.
Seditive will help with the discomfort.
All right.
Mabey in a strange way it's romantic.
Two of us together making a baby through science.
We'll start with a vaginal swab.
In preparation for the saline douche.
Just like an evening out for dinner and dancing.
It's hardly my best dancing dress, but...
At least it's us.
Actually, Ms. Grant is on duty.
A nurse is perfectly capable of handling this part of the procedure.
I have an appointment this morning,
but I'll check in on you later.
I promise.
I'm happy about this.
Ready, Mrs. Masters?
Dr. Martins please call pharmacy.
Why was I taken off your wife's case.
Fine, I'll ask her myself.
You will not.
Instead, you'll do well to remember your career is in my hands.
What are you talking about?
You are indiscreet and untrustworthy,
two things I will not tolerate.
Is this about your sperm count?
Because I have said nothing to your wife
about why you two are struggling to conceive.
Although I do think you should tell her, it's awkward.
Borderline unethical for me to
keep that information from my own patient.
My patient now.
A back door man...
I'm not surprised.
So you lied to your boss, what you think was gonna happen?
Scully knew there was a study.
Not with people humping in it.
So, what can I do anyway? Get you back to the...
peep hole with the watching and the timer?
I've been making great strides at the hospital,
far beyond the observations I... made here.
I want to continue the work.
Only move it...
Here.
With the machines and all the... wires?
Oh, for the love of God!
I'll pay the women what a customer would,
and I pay the men...
Nothing!
The only men here are Johns,
Johns are our living,
Johns are off limits.
Women only then.
Strictly for masturbation.
And I'll pay them...
Double.
Double
their rate.
And I include a free medical exam.
I can ask Wanda.
She runs her house, she listens to me.
But,
only if you give me a job in your hospital.
You?
You're utterly unqualified to work in my office.
Any respectable position will do.
In the hospital?
But why?
It's my business why.
You decide,
if you want your study here... or not.
Mom, Miss Seagal took all my comic books away,
and I was in the middle of a really grooming about Binty Vanem.
He could die, Mom!
Henry, I don't want to hear anymore.
This is very serious what you've done.
In what universe
it is Okay for you to spit on your teacher?
- She took them! - Shh!
Why can't you think about what would happen
if you have nowhere to go for three days?
Sit here, where I can see you please.
Is that your son?
It's not your business.
Virginia, the flowers were an apology.
As was my letter, my phone calls,
All I'm trying to do is tell you how genuinely sorry I am.
For what, exactly? For hitting me?
For going to Scully about the study?
For getting me fired?
Bill fired you? But why?
Gini, I would never go to Scully.
What? Get you fired? I would never do anything like that.
Stay away from me.
I mean it.
Dr. Sulivan to X-ray room 2.
Excuse me, when did the job start?
Just give me one minute.
Order two movers and a moving van for tonight.
And I want it kept quiet, if you can manage that.
Bill...
I feel terrible about this.
All of it, but especially about the study.
And if I contributed in any way,
I could never forgive myself.
But I just spoke to Ethan and he didn't do it!
He did not know anything about it!
Or...
If this is about us in the study together...
Then we can sort it out.
I love working here.
You know that, Bill, please...
Please, I need this job.
You can send in the first girl.
Can I at least tell the movers what they are moving?
I can tell them myself.
I think he liked me.
- Wish me luck! - Good luck!
We're going home soon, I need you to put your things back in your bag.
Betty?
Obstetrics, what can I do you for?
"How may I be of assistance"!
Miss DiMello is Dr. Masters' hire.
I do not know about that.
Hold on.
They want to know if someone got their flowers,
like I'm psychic.
Hello? Yes, I'm sorry.
Is that your kid?
Whom the flowers were you sent to?
Could you spell that for me, please?
Is this your job?
The truth is Virginia is the one missing out!
I'm perfect for her.
And I'm not going to be on the market long!
A young doctor, smart, successful...
Not handsome?
My point is: there are many girls
just dying for a catch like me.
For example!
I can't watch this.
Is this seat taken?
Another lamb to slaughter.
I'm very much looking forward to this.
Me too!
Guess you're here for the study?
Nobody told us it moved.
Oh, yeah, it moved all right,
to a cat house on third and Sutter.
To a...
I'm afraid I don't follow.
The higher ups did not appreciate the Doc.s'
vision or something like that.
But I was so excited about the study.
Seemed so important, you know?
Doing something really great for science.
For the first time of my life I felt like I was a part of something...
Bigger.
Didn't you?
Bigger,
better.
I'm sad.
Sorry it's over.
Well...
I guess we'll always have Paris.
You two were in Paris?
This cannot be happening.
I wouldn't ask if I had anywhere else
to put Henry tomorrow.
I have another job in the mornings.
I can't live on my wages here.
I didn't mean that.
Plus you haven't pay me for the past two weeks as it is.
I'm sorry, of course. I have it!
Would only be through Friday.
What happened to my raise?
I haven't forgotten.
I was planning on starting it next week.
You really can't shift things around to another job? Just for tomorrow.
You know what I do for my children?
I shift my schedule to be with them.
Watch the rugs, they are real Persian.
Hi, there.
Greetings.
The doc here
will talk us through it
along with the little show and tell to demostrate
all his tricks.
So...
Someone hop up, volunteer?
What is it, he gonna put balls in someone's neck?
Maureen, you're a gamer.
Yeah, Maureen, get up there!
Thank you, Maureen.
Please, lie down on the table.
This will allow me to demonstrate the
basic parameter.
All right, then, let's proceed.
You're not gonna climb up here with me?
I'm not.
This, is... an electrocardiogram, um...
basically transthoracic interpretation of cardiac activity.
And this, is an electroencephalogram, or EEG
which measures current flow in the neurons of the brain.
Basically, a big pile of spaghetti.
Well, spaghetti...
allows me to...
scientifically chart emergent patterns
of human sexual response.
Can it fix headaches?
I feel like I got a big meat cleaver right here.
I wrenched my back twice last week.
It's like razor blades when I pee.
We can attend to your medical concerns in the physical exam,
but... continuing with the study, for a moment.
This device...
is used for both...
- stimulation, and... -Oh, hello!
viewing.
A coochie flashlight?
Had to move ladies, we are coming in.
- Put them on. Let's go. - Oh, my God, of course.
Good evening.
- Hi, Burt. - Don't catch a chill, Mau.
- I'll wait for you outside, ladies. - Um...
- Johns are going in too, buddy. - I understand the confusion,
but I'm not a John. I'm a doctor.
- Of course you are. - What...
Yeah, yeah, there you go.
If you relax...
it's fun...
and sexy.
You've done this with other girls?
I'm here with you.
It's you I want.
I guess you do.
Think of it as a kiss.
But isn't the normal way just to, you know...put it in me?
We will, we'll do that. We're playing first.
But mother always said not to put anything in your mouth
if you don't know where it's been.
Well, this has been here since birth.
But...
Let me do it to you first.
I'll show you how good it feels.
Oh, with your mouth?
Right on it?
All right. I'll do you first, okay?
No, I...I...
I don't think you are okay.
No, no, I'm fine.
Here.
Hold on to your hat.
I'm sorry.
I just can't.
I'm willing to...
you know, go all the way.
Why isn't that enough?
It is...it is. It's fine.
Let's just...um...
Let's get you dressed, huh?
So I can take you home.
Bill!
For Christ's sake!
I mean, I'm flattered to be your first call and all...
I need a favor, Sam.
No kidding.
Look, I can have the bail waived,
but I don't think you needed the police chief for that.
Not that. Something...
bigger.
My wife would change the lock
as soon she knew I refuse your favor.
It's the only reason I'm agreeing to this.
You know, Flo still crows to everyone
now if it wasn't for you, we wouldn't even have kids.
How is Dennis, Jack and little Sandy?
Well, you get my nuts on the cup on this one.
But I don't think it's gonna go so easy with her.
- I can drive if you want. - No, thanks.
I would prefer control of the wheel in case I decide
to veer your side of the car into a tree.
Lib, I wasn't in that brothel as a customer.
You...you were repairing their heating.
Remember I told you I was...um...
starting a study in human sexuality?
Yes, you were characteristically vague.
Well, tonight I was...
simply using the brothel...
as a working laboratory.
But only because the study was thrown out of the hospital.
You were thrown out of the maternity?
The study was.
Which is a gross overreaction on Scully's part,
only because I was using human subjects.
I'm progressing onto couple's work.
People were having sex in front of you?
Well, not the prostitutes.
The prostitutes only masturbate in front of me,
while I watched the monitors...
in order to gather together...
physiological data.
Why didn't you tell me this?
That you're...
watching people have sex? That...
you're working in a brothel?
- Why don't you tell me anything? - I tell you...
- almost everything. - No, you tell me...
to schedule dinner with visiting faculty.
I didn't mention it because I thought...
you might judge it harshly.
A part of me wonders...
if it's something at...
home that makes you drawn to this.
Lib, how can you even say...
But then the other part of me knows you.
And I-I know what you would do for your work,
what you will do in pursuit of it.
It just seems to me that any study that lands you in jail
is probably not a study that is good for your career!
Unless it is my career.
Wheelchair assistant to the E.R waiting room.
Here's money for snack.
All homework must be finished before comics.
- Before comics, I know. - Sit here.
I'll check on you in an hour, do not budge until then.
Okay.
Hello, Betty.
Cute kid.
He'd be cuter if he hadn't gotten suspended.
Oh, probably just cutting his teeth.
I'm impressed that you convinced
Dr. Masters to get you a job.
He doesn't do many people favors.
I struke a bargain.
He's such a nut for that stupid study,
it's like shooting fish in a barrel.
Is that why, uh...
you weren't at the brothel last night,
you were dealing with your kid?
Dr. Masters has been very good about giving me time off.
Well, you better get back there fast.
He really needs your help.
Nurse Carlyle please call the switchboard.
You snuck up on me.
How are you?
Now that I see you, great.
Horrible before.
Very up and down. Do you mind?
Oh, of course not, sit.
You look...
I am a lot of things at the moment.
Preoccupied...
there are so much to think about, like...
what you said about study.
A contribution to science...
been cut off so abroadly...
just... seems real shame.
That's just how I feel.
But I also keep thinking...
It's not like Bill Masters holds the key
to all scientific advancement.
I mean, after all, I'm also a doctor.
Great, bones or...
Orthopaedics. My point is,
we can still continue the study.
Just the...
two of us.
You mean have sex together.
Sure...
- Why not. - Because you're married.
Yeah, ok, yes, but I was also married when I was in the study.
We were in the study because it was for science.
This is also for science...
just more like home studies.
If you were having a contest for the most sexual
adventurous girl in the hospital, who would win?
- That's a dumb game. - Play anyway.
Do you mind?
You play too, since you certainly know the field.
- What would you say? - Don't answer that.
Any guess would be based on idol gossip
which is ofte inaccurate and always mean.
Gossip's been around thousands of years for a reason.
- Austin... - Jesus Christ, Ethan, go...
bother Bernadette.
I don't know Bernadette.
She works in Food and Beverage.
And Daniels, in Radiology, is assured me
she's pretty much a total s...
Is that true, was she a total slut?
I am not having this discussion.
- But how slutty, exactly? - Would you find out for yourself?
I'm in middle of a serious conversation with Jane.
And I was perfectly happy here reading without either of you.
"The Second Sex"?
Is that book is, uh...
provocating as it sounds?
Oh yes.
Would you like to hear?
- I would. - Yeah, yeah.
Then listen carefully.
"One day it will be possible for a woman to love from her strength...
and not her weakness.
Not to escape from herself, but to find herself.
Not to utter resignation, but to affirm herself.
Only then will love become for her as it is for the man --
a source of life...
and not a mortal danger."
What?
Hello, Bill.
Guess you can't dodge me forever.
You know, uh...
I heard a hell of a rumor, I hope to God it's not true.
God did well in being so gossip.
Did you move that study of yours
to a cathouse on the corner of Third and Sutter?
I see you've been chatting up our new receptionist.
You are out of your mind!
Wherever we've moved, It's your doing.
Oh, no. Do lay this one at my feet.
I know you're angry , you feel I'm being unnecessarily harsh,
But I didn't spent 15 years...
grooming your career
so you can piss it away on hookers!
I want the study back into the hospital
Well, get rid the lie of couples act and I'll consider it.
Let the study back into the hospital with no restrictions.
I just give you my restrictions.
Let the study back into the hospital
with no restrictions and additional funding.
- That's not how you bargain. - I'm not bargaining.
See, this is your problem, you know that.
You put on a suit of armor...
to attack a plate of whipped cream.
Whipped cream my ass.
Something just came up at the last moment.
But you promised!
I didn't know that I had to work tonight.
But it's the very last issue of "Race to Space".
- I want to read it with you. - You will,
Henry, we will read it together, I promise.
Tonight just got a little complicated.
It's always complicated.
This is either the smartest
or the stupidest thing I've ever done.
Where'd you stashed the kids?
At home with the baby-sitter, the one informed me she's quitting.
Something about me being an unfit mother.
Everyone's a critic.
We probably get some time
before the doc arrives, I can gather the girls.
It's just like a regular kitchen.
Sorry, I've never been in a brothel before.
Normally we got naked coochies lined up along the sink,
but it's low.
You see, this works better if we have a schedule.
So...
We'll switch off between study...
That's with the wires
and doctor Masters' monitoring and taking measurements...
I haven't seen a doctor in years. So that's why I'm doing this...
No, I've decided. I'm out.
But why? Why not participate?
Because it's weird.
He's weird.
And pus, it seems like the more we help...
- What's she doing here? - Saving your bacon.
Not true. It's a fair trade.
He even paid for your time last night.
And the real truth is...
People are clueless about sex.
You ladies, you are the experts.
Doctor Masters was smart enough
to see that if he's going to help educate people about sex,
he should first come to you.
They should learn from the best.
Could fill a book with what we know.
But maybe it can even help people, a study like that.
Maybe it can even help the doc have sex himself.
He reminds me of that one Johnny who used to screwed with the shoes on.
He even didn't take his bow tie off.
He is the best women's doctor in the Midwest, trust me.
If you need help, you can count on him.
The Midwest miracle now!
Ladies.
Betty go gather the others, so we can begin.
But I do have some news.
I struck a deal with the...
chief of police.
As long as I'm working here,
you'll be spared any and all police interference.
No more raids.
Sorry.
Flip me over. Take me from behind.
Okay.
You like it in the rear?
You mean back seat?
No, I mean my rear.
No, this is fine.
Oh, it's more than fine.
Oh, right there...
Right there again...
My back's kinda cramping.
Looks like someone's a little out of gas.
I'm sorry.
Don't worry.
I can blow that back in a fighting shape in no time.
Does it feel good?
Faster? Slower? I can do both.
Either is fine. Thanks.
My mother died of a brain tumor,
so when I started getting headaches...
I knew.
How many fingers?
Three?
- How many now? - Three.
I was only 12 when she died.
She suffered so badly.
I'm afraid of dying like that.
I have to do some research.
But until then, do you know the expression...
don't borrow trouble?
Don't.
Got the schedule for the rest of the week.
I've condensed physical exams down to tonight and tomorrow.
The rest of the night are for the study.
You now have 19 of the women signed up and ready to go.
You didn't ask me here tonight, Bill.
I'm aware of that.
Thank you for...
handling the girls.
You can go now.
Betty.
Betty!
Men get to yell in here for one reason and one reason only.
Where is the next girl?
Ask nicely and I'll tell you.
Where's the next girl?
We're done. Except...
I wanna ask you something...a request.
It's irresponsible. Not to mention stupid.
Why would you want to reverse your tubal ligation?
I do not know, genius. To have kids!
But why on God's earth would you want have kids!
You're a lesbian and a prostitute.
A little respect.
You didn't answer the question.
Again, that's my business.
No, it's my business if ask me to operate on you.
I would like it done sooner rather than later.
I am not doing it at all.
Hey! Hey!
Did you know how much that costs?
Not much, busted.
It's like this, the girls think you're odd...
They'd be glad to see your shit on the sidewalk,
which is where it will be.
So you are just gonna blackmail me every time you want something?
Look at that...
You're smart after all.
How's it going with the study?
Fine.
What did you do tonight?
I'm still setting it up.
That doesn't paint much of a picture.
All right...
Part of my arrangement
in turns to having the studies there...
At the brothel.
is the girls get free medical care.
I looked at one girl's tonsils tonight
They need to come up
- Another girl had bunions. - Where?
Where did she in?
No naked bodies. No sex.
Tonight was simply paying the piper.
But, when you do watch...
It must be...
sexy.
It's work.
It's not even a tiny bit erotic?
Why are you asking me?
I guess I'm asking...
if you like to watch.
Because if you do...
you can watch me.
Stop. Don't, don't.
I love you too much.
You don't have to do this.
Mrs. Johnson, I left the next bench of secretary candidates
in the office.
Thank you.
Has Dr. Masters liked none of the applicants?
He's extremely particular.
He's gonna to land on someone eventually.
Isn't he?
Ladies, I'm afraid I have bad news.
The position has been filled.
Sorry about the job.
I had fingers crossed and everything.
But thanks, it's not your fault.
I looked at your resume.
Have you ever considered the position of caring for children?
Coffee is ready.
I've been thinking about you,
about us, in fact.
Aren't you late for work?
I may have told you...
much of my recent research suggests...
stress...
might play a significant role
in fertility.
So it occured to me,
there is no reason why we can't do the capping
right here, at home.
I'll take your temperature this morning,
and if we'are good to go,
I can cap in your own bedroom,
you can rest here
- comfortably all day, I'll check in on... - Bill...
At lunch time. I'm happy to do it.
I want Ethan back as my doctor.
- That's not gonna happen. - Why not?
Ethan is an excellent doctor
and you have said yourself he is your protege.
It's what I want.
To be honest, I do not know why he was taken off my case to begin with.
- You're my wife. - Exactly.
And we need to keep our home and this...
problem of ours separate.
Libby, I cannot abide it. I am the better doctor.
If you don't want the capping here
that's fine, the hospital is also good.
I want Ethan.
Bill...
I wake up and try and be happy...
and hopeful every day.
But I also know that I'm barren.
And the most basic thing in a woman's life is...
I can't fail you as both a wife
and a patient.
I love you too much for that.
All right.
I need some good news.
Well you might consider this good.
I thought about your proposal.
The two of us in the study
together and...
I think it's good idea.
It's good for the study.
And it's good for science.
It's also good for something else.
If you can sign these, I can get them up for tonight.
Where's the next secretarial candidate?
There isn't one.
HR's been very slow sending them up today.
I need you to talk to Betty tonight.
About?
She has some harebrained ideas.
An undergoing of tubal reversal.
I told her it's ridiculous.
But I can't outright refuse her.
Because...
Just talk her out of it.
You have children.
Explain to her how hopelessly ill-equipped she is
to undertake such a enormous responsibility.
The headaches are worse today.
I know what you're gonna and say it's okay.
It's scary, but...
I've had a OK life.
How many fingers?
Oh, my God.
- Four. - Four.
The just needed glasses, that's all. You are gonna be fine.
No, no.
That'll just fogged up the lens.
You saved my life.
I saved your eyes.
Which is still impressive
given my last class of ophthalmology was 16 years ago.
How can I pay you back?
Would you like a blowjob? It's on the house.
Thank you. No, but...
Thank you.
He should give you a raise.
Dr Masters said that
you're considering a tubal reversal.
Not considering. Either he does it,
or I kick his study onto the street.
He asked you to talk me out of it.
Such a pest.
I think he's concern is...
This isn't the best environment to raise a child.
A whore house?
You think?
I met a guy.
At, erm...
At church.
Of all places.
We became friendly and...
I'm thinking...
He doesn't know what I do,
so sure, I seem like a nice girl.
He asked me to dinner.
His, his car is...
Very fancy.
And that's when I get it out of him... He's rich.
He made a fortune in pretzel.
He's the Pretzel King.
The original Pretzel King?
He wants to marry me!
A nice girl who works in a hospital...
Have a bunch of kids.
Turns out, he's crazy about me.
But I thought you were crazy about Helen.
I...
I love Helen.
But...
She understands why I am doing this.
And...
She wants what's best for me.
But it is really what's best for children?
I mean I have them, I know what it's like to raise them alone.
I would not be alone!
When everything with this guy goes perfectly...
Which it always does.
This is a shot.
At something good,
normal...
maybe even happy.
Why shouldn't I take it?
Well, you shouldn't take it lightly.
Kids were incredibly tough.
So why do you have them if they're such a burden?
I, because I knew that I would feel like a failure...
If I didn't have children.
And I also knew that...
If I'm being perfectly honest,
I knew that they would probably be the only thing...
I could truly love.
So...
You deserve that...
And I don't.
What do you say?
I am saying you should reconsider the surgery.
I told you to talk her out of it!
She's met a man and wants children.
Of course she's met a man,
she's met hundreds of men!
Why would this one be any different?
Why are you asking, Bill?
This doesn't even sound like you.
How many times have you said when it comes to science
there is no room for God?
Science simply is,
the data tell us the story,
and should be free from all judgment and all censor.
Isn't that why you refuse to give up on your study?
'Cause you believe in this journey in following the science,
no matter where it leads?
I know you're keeping me hanging deliberately.
Punishing me for my transgressions which I probably deserve,
but...
Can we speak honestly about what's really going on here?
I don't follow.
Well, the truth is you need me in the study.
And you know it.
So am I rehired, yes or no?
You'll have a job tomorrow.
Beyond that...
I really can not tell the future.
They were a dream, really.
Tess and I have played dolls.
Miss Revlon won the swimmingsuit competition.
And Henry and I had been a greatest time.
He didn't hound you about his comics?
Oh, he did. All night.
So we read the latest issue of "Race to Space" together.
It was so good.
What a story!
The future of science and all...
It is so revetting.
I'm gonna get the entire series for my nephew.
You have the nicest kids, Virginia.
Despite what that teacher says.
So, tomorrow...
- 8 a.m. until... - Late.
I have to work again.
It's fine with me.
- Thank you. - See you tomorrow.
"On earth he had been different."
"Others had not understood him."
"He had been lonely."
"But now he found himself between worlds."
"The earth, a tiny dot behind him."
"The moon, a tiny dot ahead."
"When he got to the moon, would it be everything he dreamed of? "
"And would it be worth everything he had left behind? "
