PREVIOUSLY ON...
BETH HAD NO IDEA
PAUL WAS TOLD THE TRUTH ABOUT HER MOTHER.
FELICIA TILLMAN HAS GONE
TO SOME EXTRAORDINARY LENGTHS TO CAUSE YOU HARM.
IN THERAPY, GABY CONFRONTED HER PAST.
WHEN I WAS A CHILD, MY STEPFATHER MOLESTED ME.
BREE MADE A STUNNING REVELATION.
(whispers) HE'S YOUR SON.
AND TWO FATHERS... HE NEEDS OUR HELP.
REACHED OUT TO A SON IN TROUBLE.
(Mary Alice) LYNETTE SCAVO HAD LOST A LOT OF SLEEP
OVER THE YEARS.
THERE HAD BEEN 3:00 A.M. FEEDINGS...
AND TEMPERATURES OF 102...
AND LATE-NIGHT PILLOW FIGHTS.
BUT LYNETTE HAD NEVER COMPLAINED
BECAUSE A MOTHER... MOM?
IS ALWAYS ON CALL.
DO WE HAVE ANY EGGS?
(whispering) YES. WE HAVE EGGS.
WHERE DO WE KEEP THEM?
IN THE REFRIGERATOR.
COOL. THANKS.
HOW DO YOU MAKE AN OMELET?
YOU DON'T HAVE TO COME DOWN.
JUST, UH, TELL US WHERE THE STUFF IS. NO, IT'S JUST EASIER IF I DO IT MYSELF.
TWO OMELETS, COMING UP.
ACTUALLY, UM, COULD YOU MAKE MINE AN EGG WHITE SCRAMBLE?
GIRLS. HELLO.
MOM, THIS IS TIFFANY AND KIMBERLY.
WE MET THEM AT A KEG PARTY,
WANDERING AROUND LOOKING FOR FOOD. SOMEBODY SCARFED ALL THE CHIPS AND STUFF.
AND WE WERE LIKE, WOULDN'T IT BE AWESOME
TO HAVE DENVER OMELETS RIGHT NOW?
'CAUSE I'M FROM DENVER.
REALLY? (laughs)
I'M GETTING MORE OF A VEGAS VIBE. SIDEBAR.
YOU WOKE ME UP TO CATER YOUR BOOTY CALL?
MOM, THIS ISN'T A BOOTY CALL. I THINK YOU MEAN A "HOOK-UP."
A BOOTY CALL IS, LIKE, WHEN YOU'RE FEELING HORNY,
AND YOU PICK UP THE PHONE AND CALL-- OKAY. GOT IT. LOOK...
THIS ISN'T A FRAT HOUSE. THIS IS OUR FAMILY HOME,
AND YOU CAN'T BRING YOUR... WHATEVERS...
HERE TO SEAL THE DEAL. WHY NOT? WE'VE BEEN DOING IT FOR MONTHS.
MOM, WE'RE NOT KIDS ANYMORE.
YEAH, WE'RE GROWN MEN, OLD ENOUGH TO VOTE.
OLD ENOUGH TO DIE FOR OUR COUNTRY. NOW WHERE DO WE KEEP THE EGGS?
UNDER THE SINK, NEXT TO THE FRESH FRUIT.
THANKS.
YES, LYNETTE SCAVO HAD LOST A LOT OF SLEEP OVER THE YEARS.
AND SHE WAS GETTING TIRED OF IT.
THERE ARE ALL SORTS OF WAYS TO LEAVE.
SOME PEOPLE SHAKE HANDS...
OTHERS OFFER A GENTLE WAVE.
A FEW LIKE TO GIVE BIG HUGS.
THEN THERE ARE THOSE WHO REFUSE TO LEAVE
UNTIL SOMEONE ELSE SAYS...
"GET OUT."
MORNING, BOYS.
WHY ARE YOU HANDING ME CLASSIFIED ADS?
YOU HAVE SEVEN DAYS TO FIND ANOTHER PLACE TO LIVE.
WHOA, WHOA. YOU'RE KICKING US OUT?
YOU SAID I COULD STAY HERE UNTIL I FINISHED COLLEGE.
YEAH, WE'RE STARTING TO THINK THAT'S NOT GONNA HAPPEN.
GUYS, PLEASE DON'T DO THIS. WE LIKE IT HERE. OF COURSE YOU DO.
YOU THINK DOING LAUNDRY IS THROWING DIRTY CLOTHES
IN THE HAMPER AND GETTING CLEAN ONES OUT OF THE DRAWER. THAT'S HOW DAD DOES IT.
O-OKAY, LET'S STAY ON TOPIC. GUYS, YOU NEED TO GROW UP, LEARN TO BE INDEPENDENT,
AND THAT'S GONNA START WITH YOU GETTING YOUR OWN PLACE.
AND HOW ARE WE GONNA PAY FOR IT?
IF YOU TURN THAT PAPER OVER, YOU'LL FIND A WHOLE SECTION
OF PEOPLE WILLING TO EXCHANGE MONEY
FOR SOMETHING CALLED WORK!
WE HAVE TO GET JOBS? THIS IS CRAZY.
YOU GUYS ARE ACTING LIKE WE STABBED YOU LAST NIGHT. OH, OBVIOUSLY YOU DIDN'T DO THAT.
YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE THE KNIVES ARE.
NOW START MAKING SOME CALLS.
(exhales deeply)
UGH.
YOU REALLY THINK THAT THEY'RE READY?
NO. AND THAT'S WHY WE HAVE TO DO THIS.
THOSE BOYS ARE DRIFTING THROUGH LIFE, TOM.
IF WE DON'T DO SOMETHING SOON,
WE'LL HAVE TWIN 50-YEAR-OLDS LIVING IN THE BASEMENT,
SCREAMING UPSTAIRS FOR JUICE.
YOU'RE RIGHT. UNLESS WE PUSH 'EM OUT OF THE NEST,
THEY'LL NEVER LEARN TO FLY. MM-HMM.
DO YOU HAVE TO DIAL A "1" BEFORE THE AREA CODE?
AND THE FIRST CHICK LANDS WITH A THUD.
YES. I'VE BEEN ON HOLD FOR, LIKE, 4 MILES.
I JUST GOT A NOTICE THAT MY INSURANCE
IS ONLY COVERING PARTIAL PAYMENT OF MY DIALYSIS.
NO, THAT CAN'T BE RIGHT.
I CAN'T AFFORD THAT, AND I NEED TREATMENTS THREE TIMES A WEEK.
(tires screech) OOH! OH! AAH! DAMN IT!
OH, UH, NOT YOU.
I JUST RUINED MY SHIRT
AND SAVED A CHIPMUNK'S LIFE IN THE SAME MOVE.
THIS IS NOT A GOOD DAY. (siren wails)
OH, CRAP!
(sighs)
(gears shift)
MORNING, MA'AM.
DO YOU KNOW WHY I PULLED YOU OVER?
TO COMMEND ME FOR SAVING THAT CHIPMUNK'S LIFE? (chuckles)
NO. YOU DIDN'T COME TO A COMPLETE STOP
AT THAT STOP SIGN AT FERNDALE.
LICENSE AND REGISTRATION, PLEASE?
I'M SORRY. I GUESS I WAS JUST REALLY DISTRACTED.
I WAS TRYING TO TALK TO THE INSURANCE COMPANY,
AND THEN THE COFFEE SPILLED, AND NOW...
I'M GONNA BE LATE FOR MY DIALYSIS APPOINTMENT,
WHICH MEANS THAT ALL THE GOOD CHAIRS WILL BE TAKEN
AND I WILL END UP IN THE CHAIR BY THE BATHROOM,
AND I WILL SPEND THE NEXT SIX HOURS
LISTENING TO PEOPLE FLUSH.
DIALYSIS? MAN, THAT MUST BE ROUGH.
YEAH. AND IT EXPLAINS WHY I LOOK A LOT MORE BLOATED
THAN I DO ON MY LICENSE.
LOOK, I DON'T WANT YOU TO BE LATE FOR YOUR APPOINTMENT.
I'LL LET YOU OFF WITH A WARNING. OH. REALLY?
GOOD LUCK, MA'AM. THANK YOU.
AND THANK YOU, DIALYSIS.
(sighs) I DON'T WANNA GO ON THIS STUPID TRIP.
IT'S ONLY 24 HOURS.
TRUST ME. 24 HOURS IN MY HOMETOWN FEELS LIKE 2 YEARS.
THOSE PEOPLE ARE-- ARE SMALL-MINDED,
THEY'RE BIGOTED, AND THEIR TEETH--
IT'S THE LAND ORTHODONTIA FORGOT.
WELL, IT PRODUCED YOU, SO IT CAN'T BE ALL BAD.
UGH! PLEASE. YOU KNOW WHAT THAT TOWN IS FAMOUS FOR?
THE SECOND-LONGEST-BURNING TIRE FIRE IN AMERICA.
GABY, I THINK WE BOTH KNOW WHY YOU DON'T WANNA GO.
AND IT'S NOT ABOUT THE TOWN.
(sighs) OKAY, YOU'RE RIGHT.
BUT I DON'T CARE WHAT MY THERAPIST SAYS.
I DON'T WANNA FLY TO TEXAS TO STAND ON SOME DEAD GUY'S GRAVE
AND READ HIM A LETTER.
THAT DEAD GUY WAS YOUR STEPFATHER,
AND HE ABUSED YOU.
WHEN DR. WYNER TOLD YOU TO WRITE DOWN HOW YOU FELT,
THAT HELPED, DIDN'T IT?
I GUESS. WELL, THEN I REALLY THINK YOU SHOULD LISTEN TO HER
WHEN SHE SAYS THAT READING IT AT HIS GRAVE WILL HELP.
CONFRONTING HIM WILL GIVE YOU CLOSURE.
HE'S DEAD. CAN'T I JUST CONFRONT HIM
FROM THE COMFORT OF MY OWN HOME,
WITH A GLASS OF WINE AND A OUIJA BOARD?
(sighs) IF YOU ABSOLUTELY DON'T WANT TO DO THIS,
YOU DON'T HAVE TO.
BUT I REALLY WISH YOU WOULD.
FINE. 24 HOURS, ONE GRAVESIDE RANT,
AND THEN WE COME HOME.
WHY ARE YOU BRINGING EVENING WEAR?
IT'S THE ANNIVERSARY OF THE TIRE FIRE.
THERE'S GONNA BE A PARTY.
WE'RE ALMOST THERE, ZACH.
THESE PEOPLE ARE GONNA BE ABLE TO HELP YOU.
(groans) I DON'T NEED TO GO TO REHAB.
TELL THAT TO THE PUKE ON MY SHOES.
THANK GOD YOUR MOTHER NEVER SAW YOU LIKE THIS. EASY, PAUL.
YOU CAN'T MAKE ME GO. ZACH, FACE IT. YOU'RE GOING.
(breathing heavily) OKAY. I WILL.
I PROMISE. TOMORROW. JUST LET ME OUT NOW.
LET ME OUT. LET GO OF ME! I'M TRYING TO HELP YOU.
YOU? YOU?
YOU DID THIS TO ME. YOU'RE THE REASON I'M LIKE THIS.
YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT THE HELL YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT. PAUL, IGNORE HIM. HE'S SICK.
I'M NOT SICK!
HE'S SICK! I'M FINE!
YOU'RE FINE?! OW.
YOU SHOT ME! YOU SHOT YOUR OWN FATHER!
DOES THAT SOUND FINE TO YOU?! PAUL!
PAUL, LET HIM GO. YOU'RE GOING TO REHAB.
YOU'RE GONNA TAKE THESE DRUGS AND FLUSH 'EM OUT OF YOU,
AND THEN WE'RE GONNA TALK, OR I SWEAR
I WILL DRIVE YOUR SORRY ASS TO PRISON MYSELF!
SO YOU CAN EITHER DRY OUT IN REHAB
OR TAKE YOUR CHANCES IN JAIL.
I'M GOOD EITHER WAY!
(seat belt clicks)
LET'S GO.
(seat belt clicks)
NOW WITH JUST THE TOP... TIP OF YOUR FINGERS,
RIGHT THERE ON THE SEAM. RIGHT--YEAH. THERE.
THEN, WHEN YOU THROW THE BALL, YOU WHIP YOUR HAND DOWN, RIGHT?
GETS THE--GETS IT SPINNING FASTER.
LET'S GIVE IT A SHOT. REALLY WHIP THOSE FINGERS.
OW!
(blows) TAKE IT EASY!
(brakes squeal) CHARLIE, IT'S TIME TO GO.
NO, MOM, PLEASE. FIVE MORE MINUTES!
SORRY, SWEETIE, WE HAVE TO GET BACK TO THE HOTEL
AND START PACKING. HEY, YOU HEARD YOUR MOM.
I'LL SEE YOU IN THE MORNING, OKAY?
I JUST NEED TO ICE DOWN THIS HAND.
(car door opens)
I CAN'T BELIEVE THEY'RE FLYING BACK TO FLORIDA TOMORROW.
I KNOW. I WISH YOU'D HAD A CHANCE
TO SPEND MORE TIME WITH HIM.
YEAH, I WISH THAT, TOO.
UNFORTUNATELY, WE LOST A WEEK WHILE YOU DECIDED
WHETHER OR NOT TO TELL ME THEY WERE HERE.
YES. AND AGAIN, I AM SO SORRY.
THAT IS MY SON.
HOW COULD YOU KEEP HIM FROM ME?
WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?
I'M NOT PROUD OF WHAT I DID, BUT I DIDN'T WANT TO LOSE YOU. DON'T MAKE IT SOUND ROMANTIC.
WHAT YOU DID WAS UNBELIEVABLY SELFISH.
(whispers) I KNOW.
IF THIS RELATIONSHIP IS GONNA HAVE ANY FUTURE AT ALL,
WE HAVE TO AT LEAST BE HONEST WITH EACH OTHER.
I FEEL TERRIBLE. JUST PLEASE DON'T BE ANGRY.
I AM ANGRY.
BUT MOSTLY AT THIS-- AT THIS CRAPPY SITUATION.
I--YOU AND ME, I'M SURE THAT WE'LL GET PAST THIS.
(cash register beeping, indistinct conversations)
MOM, THIS IS TAKING FOREVER.
"TOM AND JERRY" IS ON IN TEN MINUTES.
I KNOW, HONEY.
YOU PROMISED WE'D BE HOME.
M.J., WHAT DO YOU WANT ME TO DO?
I-I CAN'T MAKE THESE PEOPLE DISAPPEAR. YOU PROMISED.
(sighs)
UM, I FORGOT FOIL. WILL YOU GO GET ME A ROLL?
EXCUSE ME.
UH, I KNOW YOU'RE ALL PROBABLY IN A HURRY,
BUT WOULD YOU MIND IF I WENT IN FRONT OF YOU?
YOU SEE, I HAVE MY DIALYSIS APPOINTMENT,
AND IF I'M LATE, I START TO GET A LITTLE WEAK.
YOU POOR THING.
BLESS YOU.
MY AUNT IS ON DIALYSIS.
WELL, MY DEFECTIVE LITTLE KIDNEY AND I THANK YOU BOTH.
ALL RIGHT! WE'RE GONNA GET TO SEE "TOM AND JERRY"!
UH, TOM IS MY DOCTOR.
JERRY IS HIS NURSE.
THEN WHEN I'M LATE, BOY, THEY REALLY GO AT EACH OTHER.
(chuckles nervously)
(whimpers)
(sighs)
SO THIS IS IT.
YEP. I WAS WRONG. IT CAN BE WORSE THAN I REMEMBERED.
IT'S NOT THAT BAD.
REALLY? BECAUSE WHEN WE ASKED THE CABBIE TO TURN LEFT
AT THE BURNED-OUT CAR, HE SAID,
"YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO BE A LITTLE MORE SPECIFIC."
UH-OH. GET OUT A COUPLE SINGLES.
YOU LOOK LOST.
I TAKE IT YOU FOLKS AREN'T FROM AROUND HERE.
YES AND NO. MOSTLY NO.
WAIT A MINUTE. YOU'RE NOT GABRIELLE MARQUEZ, ARE YOU?
YES. DO I KNOW YOU?
NO, BUT I KNOW YOU. FROM ALL THOSE MAGAZINES.
YOU'RE A SUPERMODEL!
WELCOME BACK. (chuckles) UH...
WELL, THANK YOU.
LOOKS LIKE THE OLD PLACE HASN'T CHANGED A BIT.
SOUND LIKE SOMEONE HASN'T SEEN THE NEW STOPLIGHT YET.
AHH. SO, WHAT BRINGS YOU BACK TO TOWN?
WE SHOULD CHECK IN TO THE HOTEL. NICE MEETING YOU, LADY.
HOTEL? I THOUGHT WE WERE GOING TO THE CEMETERY FIRST.
WELL, IT'S BEEN A LONG TRIP, CARLOS.
I JUST WANNA LIE DOWN FOR A FEW MINUTES.
(sighs)
SO WAS THE FLIGHT ON TIME?
YEAH. THE ONE TIME I'M BEGGING FOR AN 8-HOUR DELAY,
AND THEY LEAVE THE GATE THREE MINUTES EARLY.
OH, KEITH.
(sighs deeply)
THREE DAYS AGO, I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW THAT THIS KID EXISTED,
AND NOW I DON'T KNOW HOW I'M GONNA LIVE WITHOUT HIM.
HE'S A WONDERFUL LITTLE BOY.
YEAH. YEAH, HE IS.
MY WHOLE CHILDHOOD, MY DAD WAS IN THE ARMY.
HE'D BE GONE FOR SIX, SEVEN MONTHS AT A CLIP,
AND THEN BACK FOR TWO WEEKS AND GONE AGAIN.
I ALWAYS SWORE THAT I WOULD NEVER DO THAT TO MY KID.
AND GUESS WHAT? HERE I AM.
KEITH, YOU ARE NOT YOUR FATHER.
I ACTUALLY SAID TO CHARLIE,
"I'LL SEE YOU BEFORE YOU KNOW IT."
THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT MY OLD MAN USED TO SAY TO ME.
AND YOU KNOW WHAT IT REALLY MEANT?
"I HAVE NO IDEA WHEN I'LL SEE YOU."
I WISH THERE WAS SOMETHING I COULD DO.
THERE'S NOTHING ANYBODY CAN DO.
IT IS WHAT IT IS.
WELL, I THINK THAT'S EVERYTHING.
(chuckles) WE'RE REALLY PROUD OF YOU GUYS.
FOUND YOUR OWN APARTMENT. DID IT ALL ON YOUR OWN.
YOU REALLY STEPPED UP. WHEN CAN WE SEE THE NEW PLACE?
WELL, GIVE US A FEW DAYS. LET US GET IT ALL FIXED UP. WE SHOULD GET GOING.
OH! HOLD ON, HOLD ON. THIS IS A BIG MOMENT.
OUR BOYS HAVE GROWN UP. I--UH... (laughs)
LET ME JUST GET ONE SHOT. (camera shutter beeps and clicks)
AW. I WILL TREASURE THIS MEMORY ALWAYS.
I LOVE YOU. DRIVE SAFE. OH!
OKAY. CALL US WHEN YOU GET THERE. (Porter) YEP. BYE.
BYE.
I KNOW THIS IS GOOD FOR THEM,
BUT I HAVE TO TELL YOU, I MISS THEM ALREADY. OH!
(chuckles)
(brakes squeal)
(parking brake clicks)
WHAT THE HELL?
(engine turns off)
ROY, COME ON OUT. OUR NEW TENANTS ARE HERE.
(gasps)
(sighs) WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
DELETING A MEMORY. (beep)
YES. WELL, I REALLY WANT TO.
I JUST DON'T SEE HOW I CAN WITH MY DIALYSIS SCHEDULE.
YES, DIALYSIS.
REALLY?
WELL, THANK YOU SO MUCH.
JURY DUTY--EXCUSED. AND THAT WAS OVER THE PHONE.
I MEAN, THEY DIDN'T EVEN GET TO SEE MY SAD HEAD TILT
WITH THE TREMBLING LOWER LIP.
SUSAN... USING YOUR DISEASE TO MANIPULATE AND DECEIVE PEOPLE?
I'VE NEVER FELT CLOSER TO YOU.
OH, YOU KNOW WHAT? I DESERVE IT.
I MEAN, IT'S THE ONLY PERK TO COME OUT OF THIS WHOLE THING.
THIS STUPID DISEASE HAS TOTALLY CHANGED MY LIFE.
I SPEND SIX HOURS A DAY, THREE TIMES A WEEK
HOOKED UP TO A MACHINE.
SO, YOU KNOW, IF I GET TO CUT IN A FEW LINES,
AND GET OUT OF A TICKET, I'M DOING IT.
OOH. DO YOU REALLY WANNA USE YOUR POWERS FOR EVIL?
I'M LISTENING.
LET'S GO TO LUNCH AT GIRARD'S.
I'VE BEEN DYING TO TRY THAT PLACE OUT,
BUT THEY DON'T TAKE RESERVATIONS.
AND YOU HAVE TO WAIT HOURS FOR A TABLE.
WELL, NOT WITH ME, YOU DON'T.
I HOPE YOU DON'T TAKE THIS THE WRONG WAY, BUT...
BAD KIDNEY SUSAN...
WAY MORE FUN THAN 2-KIDNEY SUSAN.
(clink)
YOU SURE YOU WANNA EAT HERE?
I THINK I JUST SAW TWO COCKROACHES THROWING UP.
IT'S FINE. EVERYONE IN MY FAMILY USED TO COME HERE.
DIDN'T THEY ALL DIE YOUNG OF HEART DISEASE?
HONEY, YOU'VE SEEN THIS TOWN.
WOULD YOU REALLY WANNA GROW OLD HERE?
OH, MY GOD. IT'S GABRIELLE MARQUEZ.
FINALLY! WE WERE WONDERING
IF YOU WERE EVER GONNA MAKE IT BACK HOME AGAIN. (laughs)
I AM SUCH A HUGE FAN.
I EVEN HAVE ONE OF YOUR SWIMSUIT COVERS ON MY BATHROOM WALL.
IT'S MY THIN-SPIRATION. (chuckles)
UH, COULD YOU HAVE YOUR, UH, CHAUFFEUR OVER HERE
TAKE A PICTURE OF US? WOULD YOU MIND?
OH-- BE HAPPY TO, SIR.
UH, OKAY.
(camera shutter beeps and clicks) CAN I GET YOUR AUTOGRAPH?
MY AUTOGRAPH?
YOU KNOW, WE EVEN HAVE A NACHO PLATTER NAMED AFTER YOU.
IT WOULD BE MY HONOR TO BRING YOU ONE.
SOUNDS GREAT, ONLY MAKE IT A SCOOP OF COTTAGE CHEESE
WITH SLICED TOMATOES.
MS. MARQUEZ? PRINCIPAL GOMEZ.
I RUN THE SCHOOL YOU USED TO ATTEND.
(camera shutter beeps and clicks) WELCOME BACK TO LAS COLINAS.
YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW PROUD WE ARE OF YOU.
SERIOUSLY? YES, OUR YOUNG PEOPLE DON'T HAVE ANY ROLE MODELS.
NO ONE ELSE FROM HERE HAS EVER BEEN FAMOUS--
I MEAN, FOR ANYTHING BESIDES GETTING STUCK DOWN A WELL.
AHH. I CAN'T BELIEVE ALL YOU PEOPLE REMEMBERED ME.
I HAD NO IDEA. YOU KNOW, IT WOULD DO SO MUCH FOR SCHOOL MORALE
IF YOU WOULD COME BY TOMORROW AND SPEAK TO THE GIRLS.
ACTUALLY, WE'RE KIND OF BUSY. (chuckles)
I COULD CALL THE PRESS. BUT WE'RE NEVER TOO BUSY TO HELP GIRLS IN NEED.
HOW'S NOON? GABY, OUR FLIGHT LEAVES AT 10:00.
FLIGHTS CAN BE CHANGED.
I'M SORRY. MY CHAUFFEUR HAS NO SENSE OF COMMUNITY.
(chuckles)
NOW... WHO ELSE WANTS TO TAKE A PICTURE WITH ME?
(murmuring)
OH.
(camera shutters beeping and clicking)
(indistinct conversations)
(lock turns)
(door opens)
(door closes)
HOW DID IT GO WITH ZACH?
DID YOU GET HIM CHECKED IN? IT'S DONE.
OH, YOU MUST BE SO RELIEVED.
(refrigerator door opens) I KNOW I AM.
AFTER THE RIOT,
WHEN YOU TALKED ABOUT US GETTING AWAY... (bottle cap fizzes)
I FELT SO HOPEFUL.
BUT THEN, I-IT SEEMED LIKE YOU...
I DON'T KNOW...
PULLED AWAY?
YOU'VE BEEN SO COLD AND DISTANT.
NOT THAT I BLAME YOU.
I CAN'T IMAGINE WHAT YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH.
NO. YOU CAN'T.
BUT NOW WE CAN PUT IT BEHIND US,
GET BACK TO HOW WE WERE.
START TO BUILD OUR LIFE TOGETHER.
I MISS YOU. I MISS... BEING CLOSE TO YOU.
WHAT IS THAT?
(gasps)
YOUR GUN.
I BORROWED IT.
BUT WHY DID YOU FEEL YOU NEEDED A GUN?
FOR PROTECTION. MY SON TRIED TO KILL ME.
FOOL ME ONCE.
WHAT ABOUT YOU, BETH?
WH-WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
I WAS JUST WONDERING WHY MY BRIDE
NEEDED TO BRING A GUN INTO OUR HOME.
YOU HAVE TO ADMIT,
IT'S NOT VERY ROMANTIC.
IF THE GUN BOTHERS YOU...
WE CAN GET RID OF IT.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND. ARE YOU UPSET WITH ME?
I-IS THAT WHY YOU'VE BEEN ACTING THIS WAY?
PAUL, PLEASE TALK TO ME.
I HAVE A LOT ON MY MIND.
OF COURSE YOU DO.
THIS WHOLE THING HAS BEEN A NIGHTMARE.
BUT WE'VE COME THROUGH IT.
AND WITH ZACH GETTING HELP...
MAYBE THINGS WILL BE GOOD NOW.
REALLY?
WHEN SOMEONE SO CLOSE BETRAYS YOU,
CAN THINGS EVER BE GOOD AGAIN?
(sighs)
I THOUGHT OF SOMETHING YOU COULD DO FOR ME.
(chuckles)
AGAIN? BUT WE JUST--
NO, NOT THAT.
OH.
REMEMBER YESTERDAY, WHEN YOU SAID YOU WISHED
THERE WAS SOMETHING YOU COULD DO
ABOUT THE WHOLE CHARLIE SITUATION?
MM-HMM.
WELL, THERE IS.
MM.
LET'S MOVE TO FLORIDA.
WHAT?
I'VE BEEN THINKING ABOUT THIS FOR HOURS.
WITH MY JOB I CAN WORK ANYWHERE. YOU SOLD YOUR BUSINESS,
YOUR KIDS ARE GROWN. WHAT'S KEEPING YOU HERE?
UH, MY FRIENDS...
I WILL BUILD A GUESTHOUSE,
AND THEY CAN STAY ALL WINTER.
AH, WELL, IT WOULD BE AN ADVENTURE.
(whispers) TOTALLY.
(normal voice) COME ON.
WE'LL PICK ORANGES AND SWIM WITH DOLPHINS
AND DO ALL THE OTHER STUFF YOU DO IN FLORIDA.
(sighs) WHAT DO YOU SAY?
I THINK I CAN'T.
WHY?
BECAUSE THIS IS MY HOME.
I KNOW.
(sighs)
THERE'S JUST...
THERE'S NO OTHER WAY FOR ME TO BE CLOSE TO CHARLIE.
UNLESS...
NEVER MIND.
UNLESS WHAT?
UNLESS...
I MOVE THERE WITHOUT YOU, AND I CAN'T DO THAT,
BECAUSE LONG-DISTANCE RELATIONSHIPS DON'T EVER WORK,
AND I DON'T WANT TO JEOPARDIZE WHAT YOU AND I HAVE.
WELL, MAYBE WE SHOULD TALK ABOUT THAT.
NO, NO, FORGET IT. FORGET THE WHOLE THING.
ALL RIGHT, I...
I JUST KEEP WAITING FOR AN ANSWER TO APPEAR,
AND THERE JUST ISN'T ONE.
(sighs)
LET'S GO BACK TO SLEEP.
(switch clicks)
(whispers) SHH, SHH, SHH! LOCAL NEWSPAPER.
(normal voice) SO SINCE I'VE LEFT LAS COLINAS,
I'VE BEEN EVERYWHERE-- PARIS, ROME, NEW YORK...
BUT THE PLACE I FEEL MOST AT HOME?
PROBABLY NEW YORK.
NO, THANK YOU.
THEY'RE DOING A COVER STORY ON ME--
"SOLIS... SO LOVELY." ISN'T THAT GREAT?
UH, IT IS. IT'S JUST THAT
I THINK YOU'RE STARTING TO LOSE TRACK OF WHY WE CAME HERE.
YOU STILL HAVE SOME SERIOUS WORK TO DO.
WHEN ARE WE GOING TO THAT CEMETERY? I DON'T THINK I NEED TO.
THEN HOW ARE YOU PLANNING TO GET CLOSURE?
IT'S ALREADY HAPPENING. THIS TRIP HAS BEEN AMAZING.
LOOK, YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND,
WHEN I LIVED IN THIS TOWN BEFORE, I FELT LIKE NOTHING.
SO TO COME BACK AND GET ALL THIS LOVE FROM ALL THESE PEOPLE...
THAT'S HEALING FOR ME.
I FEEL SO MUCH BETTER.
AND I'M HAPPY FOR YOU, GABY.
I JUST DON'T KNOW IF IT'S ENOUGH.
IT'S ENOUGH FOR ME, CARLOS.
(telephone rings)
(gasps) DO YOU MIND? THAT'S THE RADIO STATION.
(picks up receiver)
HELLO?
(singsongy) YES, THIS IS SHE.
(normal voice) ABSOLUTELY. I'M ALL SET.
"HI. THIS IS GABRIELLE MARQUEZ SOLIS,
AND WHEN I'M IN LAS COLINAS, I GET MY FARM REPORT FROM KYAP."
(chuckles)
THIS IS NOT LEAVING THE NEST. THIS IS MORE LIKE NEST-ADJACENT.
I KNOW, BUT MRS. McCLUSKEY IS A TOUGH OLD BROAD.
IF ANYONE CAN WHIP THEM INTO SHAPE, SHE CAN.
(telephone rings)
OH. I'LL GET IT.
(sighs) OH.
(beep)
HELLO. (Mrs. McCluskey) How do make a Denver omelet?
WHY DO YOU WANT TO KNOW?
BECAUSE I MADE SOME FOR THE BOYS,
AND THEY DIDN'T LIKE THEM. THEY SAID YOURS ARE BETTER.
YOU KNOW WHAT? I'LL BE RIGHT OVER.
(beep)
AND I'M LIKE, "YOU SHUT UP,"
AND HE'S LIKE, "NO, YOU SHUT UP." (all laugh)
SO TELL ME, WHO SHUT UP?
HI. HI.
HI, MOM. HI, PRESTON'S MOM.
(chuckles) HI. SO WHAT BRINGS YOU HERE?
YOUR MOM CAME BY TO SHARE A FEW RECIPES WITH ME.
OH, GOOD IDEA.
WE DON'T WANT A REPEAT OF LAST NIGHT'S PORK FIASCO. (laughter)
(buzz) DRYER'S DONE.
I'LL LEAVE YOUR CLOTHES AT THE FOOT OF YOUR BEDS. WHOA, WHOA.
WHAT? PLEASE DON'T TELL ME YOU'RE DOING THEIR LAUNDRY.
OH, IT'S NO BOTHER.
WE LOVE HAVING THE BOYS HERE, DON'T WE, ROY?
YEAH. ASIDE FROM THEM YELLING OUT THE ANSWERS
TO "WHEEL OF FORTUNE," IT'S BEEN A REAL TREAT.
BUT SERIOUSLY, THAT'S GOT TO STOP.
THE WHOLE POINT OF THIS WAS TO GET THEM TO GROW UP
AND TAKE CARE OF THEMSELVES.
THEY JUST MOVED FROM MY BOOB TO YOURS.
(clatter)
NICE BREAKFAST TALK, LYNETTE.
THEY NEED TO LEARN TO BE RESPONSIBLE.
THIS ISN'T GOOD FOR THEM.
THEY'RE FINE.
YOUR SONS ARE NICE, UPSTANDING YOUNG MEN.
SURE, FOR ONE NIGHT. GIVE THEM TIME.
LOOK, IF THEY PULL ANY SHENANIGANS,
I'LL GIVE 'EM THE BOOT,
BUT SO FAR, THEY'VE BEEN THE PERFECT TENANTS.
REALLY? MM-HMM.
THEY HAD GIRLS SPEND THE NIGHT.
YOU'RE OKAY WITH THOSE TWO WALKING AROUND YOUR HOUSE?
LOOK, I DON'T CARE WHAT GETS ROY'S FIRE GOING
AS LONG AS I'M THE ONE WHO PUTS IT OUT.
NOW, GIRLS, IF IT WERE UP TO ME, I'D SAY AVOID MATH AND SCIENCE.
THEY CAUSE SERIOUS FROWN LINES.
GABY, PLEASE TELL THE NICE GIRLS YOU'RE JOKING.
NO. YOUNG GIRLS TODAY
NEED TO KNOW THE DANGERS OF LONG DIVISION.
EXCUSE ME, GIRLS. GABY, I HAVE SOMEONE
WHO I'M SURE YOU'LL WANT TO SAY HELLO TO.
HELLO, GABRIELLE.
YOU MUST REMEMBER SISTER MARTA.
SHE'S BEEN WITH US ALMOST 30 YEARS.
A REAL TREASURE.
OF COURSE.
WELL, I'LL LET YOU TWO CATCH UP.
SO, GABRIELLE,
WHAT BRINGS YOU BACK?
I HAVE SOME... PERSONAL BUSINESS.
WELL, IT LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE... ENJOYING YOURSELF.
I'M NOT SURPRISED.
YOU ALWAYS DID LOVE BEING THE CENTER OF ATTENTION.
YOU DIDN'T SEEM TOO THRILLED TO SEE HER.
WHO IS SHE?
GABY?
(whispers) I'LL BE RIGHT BACK.
WE NEED TO TALK.
ALL RIGHT.
DO YOU REMEMBER A DISCUSSION WE HAD HERE 20 YEARS AGO?
I'VE HAD A LOT OF STUDENTS OVER THE YEARS, GABRIELLE.
I CAN'T REMEMBER EVERYTHING.
I THINK YOU REMEMBER THIS CONVERSATION.
I TOLD YOU WHAT WAS HAPPENING WITH MY STEPFATHER.
YES.
YOU HAD A BIG IMAGINATION, MOST LIKELY FROM ALL OF THOSE
TRASHY BOOKS AND MAGAZINES YOU USED TO SNEAK INTO CLASS.
OH, MY GOD. YOU STILL DON'T BELIEVE ME.
I CAME TO YOU WITH A SECRET, A HORRIBLE SECRET.
I COULDN'T TELL MY MOTHER OR ANYONE IN MY FAMILY.
BUT I THOUGHT I COULD TRUST YOU,
BECAUSE YOU WERE MY TEACHER AND A NUN.
SO I TOLD YOU.
DO YOU REMEMBER WHAT YOU SAID TO ME?
I'M NOT GOING TO STAND HERE AND LISTEN TO THIS.
YES, YOU ARE.
YOU TOLD ME I WAS A LIAR
AND THAT I SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF MYSELF,
AND I HAVE BEEN ASHAMED EVER SINCE!
IS THAT WHY YOU CAME BACK HERE--TO BLAME ME?
NO. I CAME BACK HERE BECAUSE MY THERAPIST HAD A CRAZY IDEA.
SHE THOUGHT IT WOULD HELP IF I STOOD ON THE GRAVE
OF THE MAN WHO ABUSED ME AND TOLD HIM HOW I FELT.
BUT YOU KNOW WHAT?
I THINK I NEED TO TELL YOU.
I DID NOT DESERVE WHAT HAPPENED TO ME.
I WAS A CHILD.
BUT YOU...
YOU WERE A GROWN-UP, AND YOU DID NOTHING.
YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF.
EVERYTHING OKAY?
YES.
WE CAN GO HOME NOW.
(doorbell rings)
HI. I BROUGHT YOU A LITTLE HOUSEWARMING PRESENT.
IS IT TICKING?
LOOK, I KNOW I HAVE BEEN HARD ON YOU GUYS,
BUT YOU LANDED ON YOUR FEET, AND THIS IS JUST MY WAY
OF SAYING, "HAVE A BLAST." YOU DESERVE IT.
YOU'RE KIDDING.
WOW, A WHOLE KEG? WE CAN'T DRINK THAT BY OURSELVES.
WELL, MAYBE YOU SHOULD HAVE A PARTY.
YEAH. IT'S A CHANCE TO SHOW EVERYONE YOUR NEW DIGS.
EVERYONE.
I CAN WAIT ALL DAY.
(sighs)
LOOK, I ALREADY TOLD YOU I'M NOT GOING TO THE POLICE.
I JUST WANT TO KNOW. WHY DID YOU SHOOT ME?
BECAUSE I WANTED YOU TO DIE.
(scoffs)
TOO VAGUE?
OKAY. I'M GONNA... TRY TO BE MORE SPECIFIC.
ALL MY LIFE, I HATED YOU.
THAT IS NOT TRUE.
IT IS TRUE. THAT HATE WAS ALWAYS A PART OF ME,
BUT IT--IT STARTED GETTING BIGGER, AND THEN...
ONE DAY, I-I REALIZED IT WAS THE ONLY THING THAT I WAS.
THAT WAS THE DRUGS MAKING YOU THINK THAT WAY.
I KNOW THAT YOU WANT TO BELIEVE THAT. NO.
THAT WAS YOU. YOU DID THIS TO ME.
YOU DO THIS TO EVERYONE.
YOU'RE EVIL.
YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I AM...
HOW I FEEL, WHAT I'VE BEEN THROUGH.
WHEN YOUR MOTHER, THAT HORRIBLE DAY--
NO, NO, NO. YOU DON'T GET TO USE THAT TO EXPLAIN WHO YOU ARE.
YOU ARE THE REASON MOM KILLED HERSELF.
DON'T SAY THAT!
IT ISN'T TRUE.
WOW. DAD, THAT REALLY HURT, DIDN'T IT?
MAYBE TRYING TO KILL YOU WAS STUPID,
'CAUSE YOU BEING ALIVE, KNOWING THE TRUTH--THAT'S WAY BETTER.
YOUR MOTHER LOVED ME.
NO ONE COULD EVER LOVE YOU.
(birds chirping)
(Porter and Preston) OW, OW, OW, OW, OW, OW, OW, OW.
I'M RETURNING THESE. THEY'RE DEFECTIVE.
I SAW WHAT HAPPENED TO THE FRONT OF YOUR HOUSE.
BOYS, HOW COULD YOU?
OH, THAT'S NOTHING. YOU SHOULD SEE THE INSIDE.
THEY BROKE THREE OF MY COLLECTIBLE SHOT GLASSES.
I WAS THIS CLOSE TO HAVING ONE FROM EVERY STATE.
YOU THINK I WANT TO GO BACK TO WYOMING?
WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY TO MRS. McCLUSKEY?
CAN WE GET OUR SECURITY DEPOSIT BACK?
UGH. MONSTERS.
(sighs)
SO WHAT'S FOR BREAKFAST?
NOTHING.
FINE. I'M GOING UPSTAIRS TO CRASH. NO.
NO. ONCE YOU ARE DONE CLEANING UP OVER AT MRS. McCLUSKEY'S,
YOU GUYS ARE HITTING THE RENTAL ADS AGAIN.
WHAT? WE JUST GOT EVICTED, AND WE'RE REALLY HUNG OVER.
THIS IS NOT A GOOD TIME.
I DON'T BELIEVE YOU GUYS. YOU ARE FULLY GROWN MEN,
AND YOU CAN'T DO ANYTHING FOR YOURSELVES.
YOU ARE JUST SO HELPLESS.
GEE, I WONDER HOW WE GOT THAT WAY?
WHAT'S THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?
EVERY TIME WE TRY AND DO SOMETHING,
YOU SAY, "IT'S EASIER IF I DO IT MYSELF."
YEAH. WE'D BE HAPPY TO DO STUFF, BUT YOU ALWAYS TAKE OVER.
IT'S LIKE YOU DON'T WANT US TO DO ANYTHING FOR OURSELVES.
YOU KNOW WHAT? YOU'RE RIGHT.
WE ARE?
I GUESS I JUST WANTED YOU
TO STAY KIDS FOR AS LONG AS POSSIBLE.
BECAUSE I GREW UP WITH A CRAZY MOM
AND TWO SISTERS TO TAKE CARE OF,
I WAS DOING DISHES AND LAUNDRY WHEN I SHOULD HAVE BEEN OUT
RIDING BIKES AND THROWING WATER BALLOONS.
I WANTED...
YOU TO HAVE A CHILDHOOD...
BUT I LET IT GO ON TOO LONG.
SO I'M SORRY.
THIS IS MY FAULT.
BUT...
IT IS TIME FOR YOU TO GO OUT AND START YOUR OWN LIVES.
OKAY.
BUT BEFORE WE GO, CAN YOU MAKE US AN OMELET?
(scoffs)
YES.
ACTUALLY, NO.
BUT I'LL TEACH YOU TO MAKE ONE.
PRETTY IMPRESSIVE.
YOU'RE THINKING ABOUT CHARLIE, AREN'T YOU?
MAYBE I NEED SOMETHING TO GET MY MIND OFF OF HIM.
HOW ABOUT A MOVIE?
YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE TO GET YOUR MIND OFF OF HIM.
HE'S YOUR SON.
THAT'S WHY YOU NEED TO MOVE TO FLORIDA.
NO. THAT WAS A BAD IDEA.
I ALREADY TOLD YOU I'M NOT GOING THERE WITHOUT YOU.
LONG-DISTANCE RELATIONSHIPS DON'T EVER WORK.
THAT'S TRUE.
UNFORTUNATELY, YOU'RE IN ONE RIGHT NOW WITH CHARLIE.
FACE IT. ONE OF THESE RELATIONSHIPS
ISN'T GOING TO MAKE IT, AND IT HAS TO BE OURS.
WELL, HERE'S THE ONLY PROBLEM WITH THAT.
I LOVE YOU.
(whispers) I LOVE YOU, TOO.
GOOD.
THEN YOU KNOW WHY I WON'T LEAVE.
HERE'S WHAT I KNOW.
FROM THE FIRST DAY WE MET, I HAVE BEEN PRETENDING
THAT OUR AGE DIFFERENCE DOESN'T MEAN ANYTHING.
BECAUSE IT DOESN'T. IT DOES.
IT MEANS I HAVE LIVED THROUGH MORE OF LIFE THAN YOU,
INCLUDING HAVING CHILDREN, WHICH IS SOMETHING
YOU DESPERATELY WANTED AND NOW YOU HAVE. BREE, COME ON.
AND WHILE I HAVE FALLEN IN AND OUT OF LOVE
WITH SEVERAL MEN IN MY LIFE,
I HAVE NEVER FALLEN OUT OF LOVE WITH MY CHILDREN.
AND YOU MAY THINK THAT YOU WILL NEVER LOVE ANOTHER WOMAN
LIKE YOU LOVE ME,
BUT I KNOW THAT YOU WILL.
I DON'T SEE HOW THAT'S POSSIBLE.
(whispers) THAT'S BECAUSE YOU'RE YOUNG.
(normal voice) YOU HAVE GIVEN ME SO MUCH, KEITH.
PLEASE...
LET ME GIVE THIS TO YOU.
HI THERE. WE'D LIKE A TABLE, PLEASE.
I'M SORRY. YOU'RE LOOKING AT A 2-HOUR WAIT.
SUSAN?
UM, DO YOU THINK THAT YOU COULD SQUEEZE US IN?
BECAUSE I HAVE A DIALYSIS APPOINTMENT IN AN HOUR.
OH. UM, IT'S JUST... WE'RE SO SLAMMED.
(voice breaking) JUST LIKE MY KIDNEY.
(sighs)
LET ME SEE WHAT I CAN DO.
WHOA, WHOA, WHOA. HOLD ON THERE.
WHY IS SHE GETTING A TABLE BEFORE US?
WE'VE BEEN WAITING 45 MINUTES.
SIR, SHE'S LOST BOTH OF HER KIDNEYS.
A BOOTH WOULD BE GREAT.
WELL, I'M A DIABETIC, AND MY WIFE HAS RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS.
YOU DON'T SEE US TRYING TO GET ANY SPECIAL TREATMENT.
YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND. I'M ON DIALYSIS.
ARTHRITIS... DIABETES... DIALYSIS, SO...
UNLESS SOMEBODY HERE HAS EBOLA,
I THINK WE SHOULD GET THE NEXT TABLE.
YOU THINK THERE ISN'T ANYBODY IN THIS PLACE
WHO DOESN'T HAVE SOMETHING? WE ALL HAVE SOMETHING.
I HAVE RESTLESS LEG SYNDROME.
SHUT UP.
THE ONLY THING SPECIAL ABOUT YOU
IS YOU THINK YOU'RE MORE SPECIAL HAN THE REST OF US. YOU'RE NOT.
NOW GET TO THE BACK OF THE LINE.
YOU, TOO, SISTER.
SHE USED TO BE MARRIED TO A YANKEE.
NOTHING?
OKAY.
I HOPE YOU KNOW THIS MEANS YOU'RE PAYING.
I GOT TO SIT DOWN. I-I DON'T FEEL WELL.
(groans)
(groans) NICE TRY. WE'RE NOT GETTING A TABLE.
(groans) REALLY.
I-I DON'T FEEL WELL.
(thud)
OH, SUSAN, GET UP. NO ONE'S EVEN LOOKING.
SUSAN?
SUSAN!
OH, MY GOD.
SOMEONE CALL 9-1-1!
(Beth humming in distance)
ARE YOU GOING AWAY?
NO.
YOU ARE.
(cries) PAUL! COME ON!
STOP! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
I WANT YOU OUT. YOU HEAR ME? WHY? WHAT HAVE I DONE?
I KNOW.
WHAT?
I KNOW WHO YOU ARE.
PAUL, PLEASE, LISTEN TO ME--
AT LEAST FELICIA HAD THE GUTS TO HATE ME TO MY FACE. YOU HID IT.
I DON'T HATE YOU. I DON'T.
GET OUT, YOU LYING BITCH.
I'M SORRY. I'M SO SORRY. OKAY. YES.
I DID LIE AT FIRST,
AND, YES, I HATED YOU, BECAUSE SHE TOLD ME TO.
GET OUT!
BUT THAT CHANGED. YOU CHANGED ME.
I DON'T CARE WHAT SHE SAYS ANYMORE.
PLEASE, PAUL. FORGIVE ME, PLEASE.
I LOVE YOU. I SWEAR TO GOD, I LOVE YOU!
NO, YOU DON'T. NO ONE COULD EVER LOVE ME.
(gasps)
DON'T FORGET YOUR GUN.
LEAVING IS NEVER EASY,
BUT THE TIME COMES WHEN WE MUST MOVE ON...
SO WE CAN LEAVE OUR CHILDHOOD BEHIND...
SO WE CAN LET GO OF THE PAST...
SO WE CAN BE A GOOD PARENT.
YES, LEAVING IS NEVER EASY,
ESPECIALLY FOR THOSE WHO HAVE NOWHERE ELSE TO GO.
