Will Trent (2023) s02e05 Episode Script

1
[ANGIE] Previously on Will Trent
Mr. Antonio Miranda
lives a pretty quiet life.
Hangs out at a social club
for Puerto Rican transplants.
This message is for Antonio Miranda.
I'm the son of your sister, Lucy.
You told Gina about the case?
Yeah. I don't know
what's going on with her.
It's like she's in some
kind of a fog or something.
[ANGIE] You sure she's okay?
I got a nail in my tire.
Had to wait for a tow
when I lost my keys.
[PHONE RINGING, BEEPS]
- Hello.
- [CALLER] Amanda Wagner, it's time to pay.
["WATERFALLS" PLAYS ON RADIO]
[OFFICER ON RADIO] Ooh, Amanda.
Did you see the new girl yet?
[YOUNG AMANDA LAUGHS] I saw her.
Poor baby was swimming in that uniform.
Why do they do us like that?
Girl, you'll show her what to
do, just like you did with me.
Safety pins.
Girl. Safety pins for life. [CHUCKLES]
I'll talk to you later.
she'll be by his side ♪
But he doesn't realize
He hurts her so much ♪
[OFFICER 2 ON RADIO] Hey,
Wags. Question for you.
What do you want, Bishop?
So, Mitchell's just gonna
keep milking this kid thing
whenever she wants a night off?
She went to a parent-teacher
conference, asshole.
See, when your mom and
dad love you Oh, wait.
- You don't know what that means, huh?
- [TIRES SQUEAL]
[BISHOP] Bitch. Must be nice
having a daddy who's the captain.
Get off the channel. I
need to call in a stop.
- [MUSIC STOPS]
- [SIREN BLARES]
Long nights, right?
- License and registration, please.
- Yeah.
Let me make sure I understand
this. You got a nail in your tire.
Didn't drive anywhere
near any construction sites.
People drive over nails
all the time, Will.
We live in a busy city.
But then you got a threatening
phone call on your personal phone.
Everyone in Atlanta get that call?
I didn't get a call like that. You?
- I did not get a call.
- [WILL] Yeah.
And now this in the GBI.
Last I checked you're
still Deputy Director.
- These threats were targeted at you.
- And you're just now telling us.
I was handling it.
"Oh, I'm Amanda Wagner.
I'm scary. I can handle it."
"I don't need anybody's help.
Unless I call you in
the middle of the night
to come dust for prints even
though it's not your job."
There are hundreds of active
threats I oversee at any given time.
Sorry for not looping you two
in whenever I get a hangnail.
Let me know when you find something.
It was the night janitor.
Say more.
Camera was disconnected,
but only six people gained access to
this floor with security badges tonight.
And only one of those employees was
responsible for dumping the trash
and cleaning the elevators.
Night janitor.
- You got beef with Mr. Garza?
- Of course not.
Agent Trent, Agent Mitchell,
I thought this might help.
I call it "The box of haters."
Ooh. That's cute. Amanda's hate mail.
- It all fit in one box?
- No. Some of it's been archived.
It comes with the job.
Most of it's not personal.
Oh, looks like a lot of it is.
- Mr. Garza reported you to HR.
- What'd you do to him?
Have you two forgotten that you're
here to investigate me being threatened?
He, uh, empties the trash, but
leaves the used bag in the can.
[SIGHS] Well, I might have raised
my voice at the man a time or two.
Hmm. Yeah, I believe that.
Great. Glad that's settled.
- It was the janitor. Good work.
- Okay.
Well then, Will and I
will go talk to Mr. Garza.
Thank you, Caroline.
Well [STAMMERS]
why don't I come with you?
The man shouldn't have to lose
his job over this. You know?
I'll chat with him.
Apologize. Smooth it over.
You stapled my hand to a desk once.
You gave away my
hamster when I was eight.
- She ever apologize to you?
- Hell, no.
Not my fault you two can't take a joke.
Let's go.
You sure you want this guy
around after what he did?
I do not understand this
new forgiving Amanda.
What are you two on about?
The man was hurt because I yelled
at him for not replacing trash bags.
I'll just talk to him and clear the air.
- [CRASHES]
- What was that?
Will.
[CLATTERING]
Freeze! GBI!
You think that was Garza?
I mean, it makes sense he'd run, but
That man never moved
that fast in his life.
That was somebody else who
wasn't happy to see us coming.
Where's Amanda?
[WILL] Amanda?
- I tried to save him, but I couldn't.
- Garza.
[MACHINE BEEPING]
What the hell?
- Automatic, my ass.
- [BEEPING STOPS]
Max, Cooper, hurry up!
Dad? I need your help.
[SIGHS] Geez, Cooper. Here.
How do you manage to do this?
- Ow!
- Sorry.
There. Here you go.
Caps are in right now. Go, Braves.
Max, let's go. Breakfast.
[MICHAEL] Okay.
You want a fork or a ladle? Forgot
to run the dishwasher last night.
- Seriously?
- What about lunch?
Will you sign this permission slip?
Hold on a second, Coop.
Where's Mom?
Your mom decided to go away
on a girls trip this weekend, okay?
- It's Tuesday.
- [KNOCKS ON DOOR]
- Angie!
- Hey, you. Go, Braves.
What's up?
What are you doing here?
Check your phone once in a while.
We caught a high-profile case.
Dad, lunch?
Oh, geez.
Here. Just, um
- Here.
- [ANGIE] There you go.
Do, uh Do Grubhub
or something like that.
Pretty sure they don't take cash.
Okay. Well, figure it out. Okay?
Let's go. Bus. Now.
- Everything okay here?
- Yeah.
Hold your sister's hand, Max.
I don't know how I'm gonna do this.
- Where is Gina? What's going on?
- Ah, she's [SIGHS] gone.
- Gone where?
- [GRUNTS]
She left a note explaining
absolutely nothing
and every time I call, it goes straight
to voice mail. So, I don't know.
- I thought we were good.
- Do the kids know?
Yeah, I told them she was
with friends this weekend.
Well, take a personal
day. Try to find her.
I I I'll call Franklin
to see if he wants to roll
Why? No. I already
called everybody I can.
Let's just Let's
work. What's the case?
Uh, GBI janitor got killed.
Yeah, that's the
opposite of high-profile.
Our primary person of
interest is Amanda Wagner.
I would have bet money if Amanda
ever snapped and killed somebody,
it'd be you, Trent.
What are you two doing here?
They're going to take over
this investigation, Agent Trent.
Edie Reynolds, GBI director.
Excuse me? What do you mean
they're here to take over?
- Polaski, correct?
- Yes, ma'am.
Heller says you worked
your ass off to get back.
And you're Michael Ormewood.
It's nice to meet you, ma'am.
GBI's better already.
- This is our case.
- Let's talk inside.
[EDIE] I'd like the room, please.
GBI employee was found dead in
the arms of the Deputy Director.
She didn't kill Garza.
I don't believe she did
either, Agent Mitchell,
but we don't prove that by having our
people poke around in our own house.
APD will conduct the
criminal investigation.
GBI will provide whatever
support you need, detectives.
- Clear?
- Mmm.
To be clear, she did say
they'd offer us support, right?
- Shut up. Will
- I'm gonna go find Amanda
unless you need my
support right this minute.
Uh, what do you think
you're doing there?
Don't be a dick. Just give him a minute.
Multiple lacerations.
Contusions.
Blunt force trauma to the head.
[SNIFFS] Hmm.
Looks like Garza just made
himself a great cup of coffee.
And he let someone in.
- He knew them?
- Or her.
An argument escalated.
He tried to escape,
but then he was grabbed from behind,
- then murdered.
- [RECORDER CLICKS OFF]
The killer must have
taken off with the weapon.
Looks like he was hit
with some kind of
Coffee grinder. Every
aficionado has one.
His was antique, heavy.
Catch drawer for the
grinder is on the counter.
- [ANGIE] Will, we can
- I'm leaving.
Good. Great.
[POLICE RADIO CHATTER]
Wagner killed somebody?
This is gonna be fun.
You don't say her name.
And mind your business.
So, Amanda tell you she
received several threats?
- She did.
- Oh, good.
Now you decide to cooperate
with the investigation.
[EDIE] Again, this is not your
Not my investigation. Got it.
Are you aware that a man
ran from the crime scene?
You saw him exit the house?
No, but it was obvious where he
So a man took off running as
soon as law enforcement showed up?
In your experience, does
that ever happen, Agent Trent?
Well, in my experience, not
unless something wrong is going on.
Why are you impeding my
this whoever's investigation?
I am looking for facts.
And to maintain departmental oversight
so that this case doesn't go to hell.
And I'm looking for a connection,
to make sure nobody else ends up dead.
Mandy, talk to me.
Is there something?
Years ago, I arrested someone.
Drug charges.
Turns out he was a serial
rapist, real bad guy.
Name's Chuck Murray.
He was recently released,
and he hates me.
Enough to do this?
I don't know what his
connection to Garza could be,
but yes.
I'll have APD pick up Murray.
You stay safe.
If you knew Garza wasn't
behind this, why'd you
I mean, I was just
hoping somehow he was.
Anybody but Murray.
If he scares you this much,
why are you still holding back?
Really?
[SCOFFS] Okay.
There is more to this you're not saying,
and you and I both know it.
Listen, Faith.
If you've come over here to chastise me,
I have had enough for today. [SOBS]
[PERSON] Chuckie's not
here, and even if he was,
I wouldn't let him talk to you.
You already ruined his life once.
- How so?
- [BREATHES DEEPLY]
Mr. Murray, what happened?
Atlanta Police Department
set their sights on him.
- What do you mean?
- [MR. MURRAY] I know my son.
And when that officer come around
talking about Chuckie dealing drugs,
I knew that was a lie.
Do you recall that officer's name?
She was a little, bitty thing.
About your height, young lady.
Exceptin' she had a bad case of
what they call "resting bitch face."
[BREATHES HEAVILY]
She's Black.
Back then, you know, you didn't see
too many Black lady police officers.
That's why I remember. Her name was
Waxman, Wagstaff, something like that.
All right. Uh, we Where is Chuck now?
We need to ask him some questions.
I don't know. You all need to leave now.
Chuckie's been making
check-ins with his PO.
He works hauling firewood.
All you need to know. Leave him be.
Let's go.
I appreciate what you're
saying, Mr. Murray,
but I do have some questions.
I'm leaving my card.
Your height, resting bitch face?
Sounds like Amanda Wagner to me.
Or sounds like a man describing
every female cop I know.
Okay, Amanda's DNA was
confirmed at the house,
on the body, in the carpet
fibers, hair strand in his hand
Let me see that.
Amanda said Garza lunged at her
when she was trying to administer CPR,
so it makes sense that
her DNA would be there.
- What about this Chuck Murray?
- [MICHAEL] We're looking for him.
His father seems to think
Amanda hemmed him up in '95.
Every parent thinks
their kid's an angel.
You talk to Lee Anne, Garza's daughter?
- No.
- She recently moved.
She hasn't updated her
DMV registration yet,
so there's no address popping up.
I was really hoping we could talk to her
when she came in to identify the body,
but she hasn't been answering
Pete's calls about that either.
That doesn't sound like Lee Anne.
Her dad used to bring her to the APD-AFD
softball games when she was a kid.
I dunno. Keep trying.
In the meantime, search Amanda's condo.
- Wow, that's
- I know, I know.
But, like the lady said,
we're doing this by the book.
Okay.
- Any word from Gina?
- Not yet.
No, but her sister said she'd
help me out with the kids,
so that's something.
At least this might take my mind off it.
See how the other half lives.
- [MICHAEL] Damn.
- [ANGIE] Wow.
When you don't have to spend
money on a wife, kids, family
Going to bars.
- Or gambling.
- Ha. I got it.
Let's just get this over with.
Again, you two are not
investigating, right?
I'm like family.
Somebody's got to make sure
that the APD isn't breaking anything.
- I'm not here at all.
- Good.
- [BUZZING]
- No.
What did you find?
- [BUZZING CONTINUES]
- I don't think you want to
[BUZZING STOPS]
You didn't see that.
But I did.
[SIGHS]
[CHUCKLES]
What are you hiding from
me this time, Amanda?
["I DON'T BELIEVE IN MIRACLES" PLAYING]
I don't believe In miracles ♪
- [DISTORTED]
- I don't believe in mira ♪
[YOUNG AMANDA] Girl.
Safety pins for life.
Sir, how's that ID coming?
Sir, if you don't find that ID,
I'm gonna have to ask you to
[GRUNTS]
[GRUNTS, PANTING]
[BOTH GRUNT]
[PANTING, GROANING]
- [CHUCK STRAINING]
- [GRUNTS, GROANS]
[AMANDA PANTS]
[MUSIC CONTINUES]
You look good, Amanda.
[CHUCK] You still think about me?
That night Hmm, we got real close.
[MUSIC FADES]
Give yourself up.
I'll go back.
Prison was my library.
Learned a lot.
Made a lot of friends.
We can make that happen.
Let's go right now.
You confess what you did to
me, and I'll turn myself in.
If you don't, I'll go on doing to you
exactly what you did to me.
[CHUCKLES]
Your choice.
[INHALES]
[MUSIC CONTINUES]
[LINE RINGING]
[SIGHS] Come on, Gina.
[VOICEMAIL] The mailbox
you have dialed is full.
- [PHONE BEEPS]
- [GROANS]
What the
Hey, Polaski?
Why are you tossing her clothes
everywhere? What? What is it?
It's the murder weapon.
[CAPTAIN HELLER] You know
I hate doing this, right?
- We're gonna find Murray.
- I know.
[EDIE] Until we do, you're
our only person of interest.
So I'm officially placing you on leave,
pending the investigation
into Mr. Garza's death.
I'll need your gun and badge.
[SIGHS]
[AMANDA CLEARS THROAT]
Continue to be cooperative, and
this will be resolved quickly.
Of course. [CLEARS THROAT]
You'd think she would've been smarter
than to hide the
weapon at her own house.
You wouldn't recognize a setup
if it happened in front of you.
[OFFICER O'HARA] That's
not what the evidence says.
And now we all got front-row seats
to big, bad Wagner's downfall.
Do you want to say that again?
- Oh, look. It's the exonerated cop killer.
- Yo.
Wagner stood up for you,
so now it's your turn?
Hey, Amanda didn't kill anybody.
I was there. Where were you?
- I'm right here.
- Then let's go.
- [ANGIE] Hey, hey, hey. No, hey.
- That's enough!
Wirth, O'Hara, take a walk.
Come on, O'Hara. Out, out.
Wirth, come on.
- Our elevator got keyed too.
- Oh, shut up.
Hey. What is that?
Amanda's keys.
One day last week, she
thought she misplaced them.
The day she was late. She
had a nail in her tire.
That's how Murray got
inside and planted the weapon.
Yeah, maybe.
Ormewood, you need to
go back to Amanda's to
- My case, Will.
- Your case.
- But what about surveillance
- Will, I said I'm on it.
How close are we to getting the
current address for Lee Anne Garza?
Well, she's teaching in a
different school district,
so that's probably why she moved.
They won't give me her home address
without seeing my badge in person,
- so I'm heading there now.
- All right.
I'll let you know when we get
the search warrant for Murray's.
Meanwhile, we all sit around waiting
for Murray to destroy evidence,
maybe plant some more.
How about Will and I
just keep doing nothing
until this guy kills Amanda?
- How about you knock it off?
- [DOOR OPENS]
[FAITH] Hey, Mandy.
- Doing okay?
- As well as I can.
- You're coming to my house.
- No, I'm not.
We need to talk.
Ma'am, there are reporters
outside your condo.
- [SIGHS]
- Like I said, my house.
["EYE TO EYE" PLAYING]
Never thought you would
have been a Johnny Cash fan.
Oh, I have this one.
Bones have been broken ♪
[SIGHS]
You're planning to
interrogate me, aren't you?
Is that what's happening here?
Cracked it wide open ♪
- Go ahead.
- Great.
I looked into Chuck Murray's arrest.
Of course you did.
How else am I supposed to solve this?
- Maybe you aren't.
- Right. That's an even better idea.
I'll just watch Murray
kill another person
while he dismantles
your life step by step.
- What are you hiding?
- [SIGHS]
Okay. I'll keep going.
You took leave of absence
from the APD in '95.
Your last official
act was a traffic stop,
yet you issued no ticket.
You took a whole month
before you went back to work.
Just around that same
time, Murray went away.
Why is he targeting you now?
- L Leave this alone.
- No, I won't.
It's all connected.
The The traffic stop,
your leave of absence
and everything that's happening now.
Tell me what's really going on.
I'll keep digging. You know
I'm gonna find it anyway.
[CHUCKLES] I I tried to call it in.
What I thought was a
routine traffic stop
took a bad turn fast.
This was Chuck Murray?
- [SIREN WAILING]
- This was him.
[YOUNG AMANDA GRUNTS, SCREAMS]
- He got violent.
- [BOTH GRUNTING]
[PANTING]
[YOUNG AMANDA COUGHS]
[BOTH GRUNTING]
My first thought was,
"This guy must have a warrant."
- That wasn't it.

- [SCREAMS, GRUNTS]
- [HORN HONKS]
- [TIRES SCREECH]
Stop please.
[YOUNG AMANDA] Please. I need help.
[EXHALES]
I didn't find any of this.
- Why not?
- Because I'm a cop.
Captain Duke Wagner's daughter.
I was up for a promotion,
one I had to doubly earn
considering who my father was.
- I don't understand.
- Of course you don't!
I'm a female cop, Will!
I got overpowered at a
traffic stop by a man!
He ripped my uniform!
He almost raped me!
Do you think I could have gone
back into the precinct in 1995
and told anybody what happened?
Your father ran the whole precinct.
Well, why You didn't talk to him?
He told me to hide it.
So I hid it.
And I hated him for it.
Hated myself.
But But I didn't see
any other choices.
Murray wasn't just a nightmare.
He was the nightmare.
He'd target a woman,
puncture her tire with a nail
and then follow her in his car and wait.
Wait for her to
Wait for her to get a flat tire,
so he can beat and rape her.
Three other women that I knew of.
He didn't go away for assault.
He did not.
When I went back to work,
I helped build a solid case against him.
Then one of the women he
[STAMMERS] She was
too afraid to testify,
and the judge threw the whole thing out.
Murray walked.
A few weeks later, they arrested
him with 28 grams of coke.
Wait. Twenty-eight grams?
That's the exact limit
to escalate a drug
possession to intent to sell.
[SCOFFS] Yeah.
- I know.
- You didn't.
Say you didn't.
I most certainly did.
I planted the coke,
called the SWAT team.
They busted into his house and took
him down like the animal he was.
Murray got 30 years.
[SCOFFS]
How could you?
Planting drugs?
Breaking the law?
There's a right way
and a wrong way, Amanda!
I own what I did.
I've carried it for 30 years.
Trust me. It has not been easy.
Yet you still sleep at night.
I sleep knowing I kept him
from raping any other women.
Morning.
[SCOFFS] Absolutely not.
It's not up for debate.
I run to clear my head,
not to get into any other
conversation you might wanna have.
We don't have to talk.
Actually, I'd prefer it.
But I can't let you go alone.
[DOOR OPENS]
- Mitchell.
- Polaski.
- I'm not the enemy here.
- Understood.
I didn't ask to be put
in charge of anything.
Sorry. It's just [SIGHS]
- Amanda.
- I know.
So, listen, Ormewood got an address
for Lee Anne Garza,
the janitor's daughter,
and I sent a couple of unis
over there to pick her up,
- and it looks like she's been taken.
- Murray?
That's the leverage he had over Garza.
Prints are being run. We'll have
the warrant to search his house
by the time we get there.
- You're technically not on this case
- Not at all.
Want to not take a ride with me
and not take a look at his house?
No. Wouldn't dream of it.
- Ormewood coming?
- He'll meet us there.
I can't run in the
shadow of your judgment.
I can feel it from here.
Too bad. And I'm not judging.
I'm trying to help you.
- I didn't ask for your help.
- [BETTY WHINES]
- Just stop hovering.
- Fine.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry for what he did to you.
[SIGHS]
I'm sorry
you went through all of that alone.
But you're not alone now.
All right. Now Now,
you're just being stubborn.
Only you can turn an
apology into an insult.
You taught me everything
I know about this job.
No compromise, no shortcuts.
Planting evidence?
You of all people.
Y'all wanna judge me
and call me a hypocrite,
but none of you will ever
walk a day in my shoes.
Who? Who are you talking about?
Men! You, my daddy, Captain Wagner!
All the men I passed over
at the APD and GBI! All of you.
No, you don't get to lump
me with those other men.
- Will.
- What?
It's a rifle scope.
Amanda, do not move.
What is this? I'm on the job.
[AGENT 1] Put your hands in
the air! Down on the ground!
- What is this? What's happening?
- [AGENT 2] Get on the ground now!
- I'm GBI!
- [AGENT 1] Right now!
- Put down your weapon!
- Step away! Move away!
This is Deputy Director Amanda
Wagner of the GBI! Who ordered this?
Got an anonymous call. Female waving
a semiautomatic at children in the park.
Call Director Edie Reynolds.
It's obviously wrong.
Don't look at me! Call!
[AGENT 1] Hey, command.
10-5, relay. We've got
[WILL] Well, it's obviously
not her. This is a mistake.

just trying to have a
nice polite conversation

He doesn't know where Gina is
either, but apparently her sister does.
All right, more on that later.
Mr. Murray, turn that music down.
Chuckie says, "Leave
the music like it is."
It's for the coyotes.
We have a warrant to
search the property,
and an arrest warrant for your son.
[MUSIC STOPS]
[ANGIE SIGHS]
Mr. Murray, what's in there?
It's Chuckie's workshop.
I need you to step
out and face the wall.
Mr. Murray, step right out, turn
and face the wall right here.
[ANGIE] Give me hands. Your hands.
What the hell?
[WHIMPERING]
- Lee Anne?
- [WHIMPERING INTENSIFIES]
We're with the GBI. We're
gonna get you out of here.
[MICHAEL GRUNTS, BREATHES HEAVILY]
Hold on!
Stand back.
We got you. We got you.
We found Lee Anne, and she said
she can positively ID Murray.
And Amanda's keys were
in his work/kidnapper shed.
So you were right, Will. He planted
the murder weapon in her condo.
Now we just gotta find him.
- Thanks, Ang.
- [CALL ENDS]
We got him now.
You don't have to do
this press conference.
I do, Will.
My reasons haven't changed.
Oh, my God. Wilbur. Will.

- Daddy!
- Hey, you. There you are.
- [KISSES]
- Hey.
Hey. Love the enthusiasm, Max.
Hey, why don't you, uh, guys go
upstairs and get cleaned up, yeah?
We're not dirty.
Then go to the backyard and get dirty.
I need to talk to your aunt Nancy.
- I don't really have time, Michael.
- Just a second.
- Pretty sure you know why.
- [DOOR CLOSES]
So I spoke to Harris.
- Spoke to?
- Where's Gina?
I'm sorry, Michael, but
she asked me not to tell you.
I asked you last night.
Nancy, she's my wife.
The kids are worried.
You need to tell me the truth.
Gina checked herself into a
facility. It's for mental wellness.
WWhy? [STAMMERS] Is she depressed?
[SCOFFS]
Why would you lie about that? I
could have taken her to a doctor.
- I would've
- This is exactly why I didn't tell you.
- What the hell's wrong with that?
- She needed space from you.
My sister is going
through something serious
she doesn't understand herself.
Last thing she needs is you swooping
in, trying to have a hero moment.
Yeah, no, no. It's way better to
just keep me and our kids in the dark,
thinking that something
bad happened to her.
This is bad.
You know what I mean, Nancy.
I found pills.
So did I.
Gina said she did
research on the Internet,
thought she could self-medicate.
Yeah, that doesn't work.
[SIGHS] Can I visit her?
I'll ask.
- Probably not yet.
- No.
- No, probably not.
- Okay.
How long is she gonna be there?
Best thing that you can do
is take care of these kids
and make a soft place for
her to land when she's ready.

Faith. Faith, can we talk?
Reynolds says I'm
clear. Fully reinstated.
That's great.
Uh, why don't you come over for
dinner? Um, I'll spring for a pizza.
You know, I was halfway home when
it dawned on me that [SIGHS]
I misspelled something on a
witness statement, so I came back.
That's how important
this work is for me,
the integrity of the work.
F Faith, listen
I know I've made mistakes.
I own that.
We all own it now, don't we?
You didn't even tell me the truth,
but now it is my responsibility.
I have to hold that, all of us.
Everyone who knows what you did.
They are all gonna cover for you.
But, hey,
you get to keep your job, right?
Congrats on that.
I bet my mom would be
really happy to hear it.
[TV HOST] Let's bring in that new
Hey, Coop.
Find that snuggle spot.

[TV HOST] And your name?
[TV CONTINUES, INDISTINCT]
Where's mom? Really?
Guys,
your mom hasn't been
feeling like herself lately,
so she went somewhere to
focus on feeling better.
And she's gonna be gone
for a little while, okay?
How long?
- Is she mad at us?
- Well No. God, no.
Guys, this is just
This is grown-up junk.
Sometimes,
even we don't have all the answers.
Your mom's just
going somewhere long enough
to take care of herself,
and then she can come back
home and be with us again, okay?
And then we'll take care of each other
'cause that's how
this family works, yeah?
Do I have to keep wearing
baseball caps to school?
[CHUCKLES] I'll work on that.
- But she's coming back, right?
- She is.

[BETTY WHINES]
[AMANDA] Um.
- Will, I just wanna say
- You should've hung that to dry.
Oh [CHUCKLES]
I just left a few
things in the wash,
I wanted to get out of here real quick.

Hi, uh No, um
It It's a good time.
It's a lot, you know, getting a
voice mail like that out of the blue
from your so-called nephew. Um
I'm, um I'm actually in Atlanta.
- It's pretty crazy, huh?
- [SIGHS]
[WILL] Oh, that'd be great.
Yeah, me too.
