Brothers & Sisters s02e11 Episode Script

Previously in brothers and sisters A billion people eat this food every day.
Don't you think it would taste a lot better Coming from your orchards? Of course, but you're not gonna charm me into a deal.
I'm having a big family dinner.
Why don't you join us? That sounds great.
Mom's really into this guy isaac.
But if she wants us to go over to the house and have dinner, That's what we have to do.
Tommy had an affair with lena.
I never liked that girl.
If you're gonna blame anyone, blame tommy.
Your opinion doesn't count because you slept with lena, too.
I'm still sleeping with her.
It's not just that you slept with lena.
Tommy? Did it, too.
I slept with someone.
- You what? - We went out in high school.
It was a mistake Was she? Was lena a mistake? Yeah, she was.
Scotty, jason is coming back.
He--He--He contacted me.
Hey, mom.
Good sweet god in heaven, was that you? No, that would be typhoid travis, Attempting to spread his plague to the good people of iowa.
Those good people gave me this plague.
So is isaac sick, too? No, travis would be the only one suffering at the moment, thank god.
Don't drink so much! I don't.
I hardly drink at all.
I thought maybe if he was sick, that's why he hadn't called.
And then who could blame him, you know, After the dinner party from hell.
No, mom, he's just busy with the california primary, that's all.
You don't have to make excuses.
I can take rejection.
Mom, i'm not making excuses.
I-It turns out that presidential campaigns Are kind of time-Consuming, okay? You know what you should do? Go down to the office, and you should ask him out for lunch.
God, no.
That is just way too forward.
Mom, you know what? The man watched our family disintegrate over paella.
I think you're past the too-Forward stage.
And whatever happened with julia and tommy anyway? I don't know.
I never talk to them anymore.
I don't even talk to justin, Who i guess is still sleeping with lena.
- What could she be thinking? - I don't know.
Maybe she's wishing that kevin were straight So she could go for the whole walker trifecta.
- Kitty, that's disgusting.
- Oh, look at that, mom.
We're here.
Gotta go.
No, we're not.
Mom, do me a favor.
Call isaac.
No.
- Call isaac! - No! Bye.
I have so many questions about that conversation.
I have to get up early tomorro So? I thought that we said that we were gonna take the night off.
Look, i know.
I just really don't feel like being at home tonight.
I mean, i can't handle another closed-Door phone call Between kitty and my mom or sarah or god knows-- Oh, great.
Your being here is only gonna make it worse.
I don't care, okay? I still have to go to work, justin.
Wait.
Where are work, that's right.
Well, uh, how's work? What's that supposed to mean? Nothing.
Isn't it a little awkward? Of course.
It sucks.
Then why don't you quit? Because unlike you, I don't live at my parents' house rent-Free, And i don't have a bunch of money in the bank either.
All right? I need this paycheck.
Do you actually think that i like working for your brother? Okay, i'm sorry i brought this up, all right? It's just-- What are we doing? Everybody is pissed at us.
Rebecca hasn't talked to me since the wedding.
You and tommy are practically estranged.
When you and i started seeing each other, we said, You know, we wanted to have fun.
But now i don't know.
You're just-- You're being really intense.
- Intense? - Yeah, and i'm worried.
So what, you think i'm using again? No.
Look, 'cause i'm not, all right? I'm going to my meetings, and you know what? I-I even just found one for vets, so that's--That's great.
What--What-- What's the problem here? You seem really angry lately.
Not at you.
Tommy's the one who screwed up, okay? Not us.
And i'm just sick and tired of everyone Making us pay for his mistakes.
It think it's more complicated than that.
Like what--What, do you still have feelings for him? No.
No, of course not.
Okay, so then what are we worrying about? You know, tommy and julia, they're gonna-- They're gonna make it or not.
But you know what? That's their issue.
No, you're you're--You're really--You're right.
All right.
Come here.
Can i stay? Yeah.
- Is that new? - Ish.
Did you get it in phoenix? Actually, i got it a couple weeks ago for you.
It's nice.
You know, i was thinking maybe tomorrow, um, I could drive up, we could have lunch.
If--If that's okay.
Yeah, if you want to.
I think it'll be good for us to do things That we used to do before you know, normal things.
Yeah, there's this new seafood restaurant.
We we could meet there if you want to.
Okay, yeah, good.
That sounds good.
Sorry, sir, we're closed.
I'm gonna have to ask you to leave.
What took you so long? I don't just cook, kevin.
I also clean.
God, i would make such a good husband, wouldn't i? Don't worry, i'm not fishing.
Oh, speaking of which, I was left alone on the line to finish a grilled turbot When we ran out of cider vinegar sauce.
So i finished it with cubed red peppers and cumin.
And is that bad? Well, it wasn't what they ordered.
I me, i was sort of flying by the seat of my pants.
But the server came in with compliments to the chef.
Wow.
Bra, poissonier.
Merci.
So what's new with you? Just depositions too boring to describe and jason called.
And jason called.
Yeah, he's back in l.
A.
, And he wants to meet for coffee tomorrow.
Look, if you're at all uncomfortable with this, i can cancel.
- It's absolutely no problem.
- No, no.
It's fine.
I mean, i knew he was gonna call eventually.
Yeah and, you know he's robert's brother.
It's not like i'm not gonna run into him.
Yeah, and you guys had?? So yeah, i mean, go see him.
Resolve whatever you need to resolve.
Look, i'm absolutely resolved.
Absolutely.
So i-I-I told him he could drop by.
I hope that's not a problem.
Scotty, if you have any issues about this, please say, - 'Cause i can cancel.
- I said it was fine, kevin.
- Okay.
- Thank you for asking, - But it's all good.
- Okay.
Anyway, i am beat.
Uh, let's go home.
sync:frs@¹âïë mzinfo Brothers & sisters s02 ep11 I just don't understand what's bothering you, sarah.
This is a chance for us to make a huge splh.
Theoretically, but what graham's?? But graham has had a huge success in china before.
He knows thearkets.
He has the contacts.
He has no vested interest in this company, saul.
He's a gambler.
Are you really willing to risk everything that You, my father, tommy and everybody else spent years building For something that has no guarantees whatsoever? You and i both know that there are no guarantees in life.
True, but there's degrees of risk.
There's calculated, sensible risk, And then there's graham finch.
Why are you so invested in doing it his way? I am invested in whatever is good for ojai.
Okay, what about if we just split it in half? We open with a hundred stores.
And what if we can't meet the increase? What if there's a frost or, god forbid, a labor dispute? What if we overextend ourselves And end up losing our existing contracts? Ten stores, saul, in two or three key cities.
We can handle that.
We can control quality, build reputation, create demand.
That'sow dad did it.
This is your stubborn streak speaking, sarah.
You're welcome to try and whittle away mresistance.
I'm sure graham finch will be.
- Sarah walker.
- Oh, speak of the devil.
How soon can you get packed? We've just got ourselves a meeting with the chairman Of golden plum imports this evening in san francisco.
Whoa, wait.
What, today,?? The chairman needs to be on a plane to beijing in the morning, And he agreed to meet with us at the hotel before he leaves.
We're nowhere near ready to present.
Sarah, simon lao is the man, And if we really want this, we need to be there.
I already booked the flights.
Well, i'm st not comfortable winging it.
Graham's right.
I think you should take this meeting.
Well, i'm sorry, i'm not a wing-It type of girl.
You know,?? But he would only take the meeting If i assured him that the president of ojai would be there herself.
Well, tell him you lied.
Sarah, what is wro with a wildly successful meeting Followed by a-A fun night out in san francisco? Fun night out? Why wouldn't we be on the last plane home? Because there's no telling how long the meeting's gonna last.
Come on, i already reserved two rooms at the hotel.
Tell you what--Fun night out is completely optional.
No, the fun night out, that's off the table.
Okay, we'll go on my terms.
L.
A.
X.
, 2:30.
Be prepared to argue the entire flight.
And be prepared to lose that argument.
That's--That's pretty much all i do these days.
So i guess video games are my new drug.
I mean, it's healthier than smack, right? My girlfriend thinks it's weird to try and blot out iraq By running around shootin' things, But it seems to work.
I'm sam, and i'm an addict.
Hi, sam.
Well, uh, it's not as exciting asombie killing, But the thing that gets me through is my wife pamela.
She's great.
But lately, she's been doing that thing, you know? She wants to know what it was like over there.
I mean, i want to tell her someday.
But at night, when i'm laying there not sleeping, And she's trying to help me out, The last thing i want to do is talk about that stuff.
It's like, can we please just have sex? It was definitely easier when i was high.
I could just nod out.
But i guess if i'd wanted to take the easy route, I wouldn't have become a marine.
I wouldn't be coming here.
That's all.
Okay.
Anybody else feel like talking today? No? All right.
See you guys, uh, back here next time, okay? God grant me the serenity to accept the things i cannot chae, The courage to change the things i can, And the wisdom to know the difference.
Amen.
See you next time.
See you.
Hey, uh, justin? Hey.
- So how you doing? - Good.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
Uh, what'd you think of our little group? I like it, yeah.
Yeah, i was kind of hoping that, uh, maybe one of these days You'd get up and talk.
Yeah, uh, it--It's not that i don't want to.
No, no.
Well, whenever you're ready.
Thank you.
?? I'm gonna head up to santa barbara - And check out those presses.
- Great.
You gonna be all right here? Yeah.
Why wouldn't i be? Look, it's over between me and lena, okay? It's done.
Okay, the affair is over, But the possibility of a lawsuit is not.
- It's not gonna come to that.
- I hope not.
But while i am gone, just-- Just please go by the book.
You'll leave the door open.
You won't make any comments about what she's wearing.
Nothing suggestive.
- I'll be careful.
- Good.
- Hey.
- Hey.
- Hope i'm not interrupting.
- No, not at all.
I'm rushing out.
- Okay.
- Enjoy your lunch.
Okay.
- Hey.
- Hey.
I thought, uh, we were gonna meet at the restaurant.
I know.
For the first time ever, the freeway was empty, So i figured i'd pick you up which apparently was a really stupid thing to do.
No, it's, uh it's good.
Well, i can try to reach her, But she just left for another meeting.
No, okay, okay.
Yeah, i'll-- I'll, uh, give her a call, And then i'll get right back to you.
Is there a problem? Well, holly had a meeting with western trucking tomorrow, And now they want to do it this afternoon and you know what? Don't sweat it.
- I'll figure something out.
- No, it's an important account.
If holly can't do it, i should-- Tommy, why don't?? Look, if you're rushed for time, We can still have lunch together, and you can cover the meeting.
Are you-- You sure it's okay? Yeah, it's fine.
Do you have any delivery menus? Thanks.
So what are you in the mood for? Come in.
Hi.
Nora.
I-I was just in the neighrhood, Thought maybe you'd like to grab some lunch.
Oh, i'd--I'd love, but, um, I have a strategy session in three minutes - That i-- - Ah.
Yeah, it's-- No, wait, wait.
I'm canceling my entire schedule for this evening.
Would you have dinner with me? This evening? Let me think.
I guess i could cancel a few things.
Good.
- 8:00? - 8:00.
- Well, you know where i live.
- Yes, i do.
Let's see.
How's that mandarin coming along? - Oh, very good.
- Yeah? I can say hello.
After that, it's up to the translator.
Did you know it was the year of the golden pig? I--Actually, i did.
It's a very auspicious time for new things, New ventures, new relationships.
Actually, it's a very auspicious time to have a baby.
Well, there's different kinds of babies, you know.
There's big, strong Tiny, little, feeble - Give it a rest, graham.
- Sarah, seriously-- Sarah.
No, sarah, you're making a big mistake.
Simon lao can partner with any company he likes.
He respects strength.
If he thinks that we're playing it too safe, He's just gonna move on to somebody else.
And if we do it your way, We run the long-Term risk of delivering them An inferior product, which is fine for you, Because if they pull out, You'd just find another company to gamble with.
You know, there actually is some skill involved with what i do.
When are you gonna start trusting me? Just drop the flirting, ?? And then i'll think about it.
Consider it closed.
- 50 stores? - No.
- 12 kiosks? - No.
So, uh, How's the taco? It's okay.
You know, This new mexican place just opened right by my parents' house.
They have thbestish tacos.
Is that where he took you? What? No, he did not take me for mexican food, And how can you even bring him up When she's sitting right outside the door? You're the one who suggested eating here.
I thought we were going for normal, Which obviously isn't working, Probably because all i can think about is, Did you do it on your desk, on hers? Like i don't have questions?? Was it really just once? Was he good? At least you know what you're going up against.
- "Up against"? - I didn't mean it like that.
Western trucking's here.
- Yeah, i'll be right there.
- I'll get out of your hair.
- Julia, i'm sorry.
- See you at home.
Hi.
Hi, kev.
The loft looks great.
Yeah, yeah, i-- Yeah, i like um, living here.
You still have this, huh? Yeah.
Oh, oh, the wedding.
I forgot to tell you about the wedding.
It was a total freak show.
Kitty ran away from the altar.
Yeah, i can't believe?? Robert told me all about it.
He must be excited youe back.
Yeah.
Yeah, he's already made me promise to campaign for him.
You're gonna campaign? Kev, don't.
He's--He's my brother.
Well, yeah.
Kitty's my ster.
You don't see me drinkin' the kool-Aid.
Didn't--Didn't we once agree?? Yeah.
Yeah, we did.
You're right.
So, uh, how's work? Oh, it's, uh-- Hi.
- Hi.
What-- - I got off work early.
- Hi, i'm scotty.
- Of course.
Good to meet you.
Good to meet you, too.
Uh, uh, you know what? We're--We're, uh, Just in the middle of coffee, so maybe-- Oh, no, of course.
Enjoy.
I did bring home some soft-Shell crabs, though.
They're not lobsters, but jason, why don't you join us for dinner Or late lunch or whatever it is? No, no, no.
I insist.
Kevin, tell him how well i do soft-Shell crabs.
You know what? I don't think tonight's-- I'd love to.
Great.
Well, i'll get started in the kitchen And leave you two alone.
Graham, this is not appropriate.
Oh, really? I-I thought they were kind of nice.
They are nice, but this is a business relationship, And they're just not appropriate.
- Yeah, i know.
- And this card-- "Good luck with your presentation"? This is our presentation.
If i don't feel that we're together on this 100%, We should just get on a plane and go back to los angeles.
Sarah, we are together in this.
Good.
Where do you want these? Guess i'll just put 'em next to ne.
I'll tell the hotel you don't approve of their gift.
The hotel? Yes, they really appreciate your business-- Well, our business.
And you know that chocolate on your pillow? It's not from me either.
- This is awkward.
- Not for me.
Uh, i'm gonna go get changed for the meeting.
Don't think you're gonna get more stes just because i'm embarrassed.
What about something like this one? Oh, good god in heaven, these can't possibly be mine.
How much weight can you lose in an hour and a half? Becca, i have to tell you, I found out about tommy and your friend lena.
- Oh, i'm so sorry, nora.
- Here, help me.
It came out at the last family dinner.
Of course.
Where else? Obviously, julia and tommy have a whole lot to work on, But it really bothers me that she's still dating justin.
What kind of girl is she? Wait.
Uh, they're still dating? I thought you knew.
No.
No, i-I had no idea.
I-I haven't spoken to either of them since kitty's wedding.
You haven't spoken to him since the wedding? No.
No, he hasn't called.
Well, that's what i'm talking about.
He's just spending every waking hour with her.
You know, i-I just wish i never got her that job.
Sweetheart, don't blame yourself.
It's not your fault.
Oh, that's nice.
I want something quiet and elegant and sophisticated, Like he is.
Wow.
You really like this guy.
Hey.
Hey.
What are you doing here? I was just, um, upstairs helping your mom Get ready for her date with isaac.
Cool.
Yeah.
And? Juin, why didn't you just tell me That you're still dating lena? Sorry i forgot to send out the memo.
No, i just don't understand, because, like, Don't you care that she slept with tommy? I mean-- It was a mistake, okay? Really? Because usually when people do something over and over again, That's not really a mistake.
That's--That's more of a hobby or-- Or--Or what? An addiction, right? I didn't say that but, you know, now that you mention it, There are some glaring similarities.
- Look, this is ridiculous.
- Is it? Because it seems pretty self-Destructive, What you're doing.
I me, you're you're tearing your family apart.
Like, why is it a secret? Why won't you just tell everyone? I don't need this.
If you have a problem with me dating lena, That's exactly what it is.
It's your problem, okay? I don't have a problem.
The bottom line is you're hurting people, justin, And you're gonna get hurt.
Uh, i'm feeling a little entourage-Deficient.
I'll try not to take that comment personally.
??? Mr.
Liao, nice to meet you ??? ??? Your fellow ??? Which one's the translator? ??? You're the translator? You're at my mercy, aren't you? Ten stores.
Ten stores.
Hey, i just wanted to check in.
Today was pretty awkward.
I just want to make sure everything's okay.
Everything's fine.
Thanks.
Look, uh, I know that it isn't easy with me being here.
And julia didn't seem happy.
No.
No, she's not.
Well, i'm sorry.
Don't be.
It's not your problem.
But justin is.
Is that your way of asking me about him? Yeah.
I just--I don't i don't know where it's going.
Join the club.
I mean, i have no idea where julia and i are going either.
You know, it's actually easier To talk to you than her right now.
Yeah, well, it's always been easy with us.
Yeah.
Whoa.
Whoa.
Uh, what--What are you doing? No, wait.
I-I just-- I thought you said-- I don't know what i said, But i-I-I love julia.
I'm sorry.
No, it's, uh so ??? Is robert gonna take california? Well, he has the home state advantage.
And now with this gulf scandal behind him, his numbers are up.
You really think he's gonna win.
Well, i never call a race before it's over.
Mmm.
Good, thank you.
You tell me what you think about this.
It's south african and surprising.
I don't ch like surprises.
Well, i think you'll like this one.
Wow.
That's wonderful.
Have you ever been to south africa? No, have you? Oh, about five years ago, before my wife claire got sick, I took the whole family.
Well, i went to west africa to explore my ancestry.
We went to mali and to car senegal And the gambia.
It was quite a trip.
Really? If i were to explore my ancestry, i don't know where i'd go.
I don't know where i come from.
I'm a little of this and a little of that.
I'm i'm a mutt.
Well, i'd say you're a very well-Put-Together mutt.
So what, you just wanted company on the plane? Trust me, your being here is crucial to us getting this deal.
How? All i did was nod.
I would ve liked the chance to present.
Well, you didn't see mr.
Lao talking, did you? Huh? It makes you seem more powerful if you Let your minions speak for you.
I didn't even know what you said.
- Ah.
- If i hear anything about a hundred stores, i swear-- Sarah, trust me.
- Miss walker.
- Mm.
We are very impressed with your proposal.
Thank you.
We would like ojai, california, produce on the shelves ??? In how many stores? Well, mr.
Finch makes a very strong case.
We would like to start with our ten flagship stores.
Thank you, mr.
Lao.
That is very good news.
Ah, please forgive me, - But i have an early flight tomorrow.
- Of course.
I look forward to doing business, And i wish you and your family Every success in the coming year.
Bye Thank you very much.
My family? Well, i may have accidentally let slip That your brother-In-Law is about to become president.
You didn't! Tell me off later over a drink, okay? So, jason, wre exactly were you in malaysia? Were you--Were you in the middle of the jungle? Well, i was just outside of kota kinabalu.
- Kota kin - Kinabalu.
Yeah, it was-- It was very jungly.
Wow.
Must have been hard being so far away from your home.
It was isolating, yeah.
I thought you were so engrossed in your work, You wouldn't have time for thoughts like that.
I was hoping it would be that way, But, uh, you know, the truth is, i just wanted to come home.
I felt like that every single time i went to summer camp.
I think i called home twice a day.
Calling home wasn't really aoption for me.
Why not? No cell phone coverage? I was having a crisis of faith, actually.
Really? I didn't know that.
Oh, but then, you didn't tell me.
I'm--I'm sorry.
I was spending my time talking to god.
At least you were talkin' to someone.
And you don't need a cell phone to talk to god, right? I'm gonna go to the kitchen.
Can i get anybody anything? Why don't you just drop the hostess act? Okay.
You guys had things to resolve.
It's obvious.
So why bring home crustaceans? I-I'd love to know what you think we have to resolve.
I have nothing to resolve.
He keeps saying that.
No, no, it's quite sple, honestly-- We were together, he went to malaysia, I never heard from him again, end of story.
Oh, really? Okay, what about the part where you promised To wait for me and then broke up with me on the phone? I'm surprised you picked up the phone.
- You want to know why i didn't call? - Why? I thought it would make it worse.
- Worse? - I missed you too much, okay? I-I thought if i could just focus on where i was - And what i was trying to do-- - You know-- You know what that is? That's the worst excuse i've ever heard.
You made me feel like we were through, over, Like ias some materialistic guy you had no time for.
And you guys have nothing to resolve.
Right.
Stay out of this for one minute.
No.
Why don't you just ask him why he came home? I'm sure you want to know.
Well, it wasn't for him, if that's what you're thinking.
He dumped me.
That's when i found my spiritual strength-- - Finally.
- So god won after all.
Yes, kevin.
In a contest between you and god, god won.
Great.
So everything worked out for the best.
Yeah, perfect.
Well, i'm really gla we had that talk.
Hey.
Hi.
What is this stuff? You said you had some questions about him, So i thought i'd answer them.
That's his yearbook picture pictures from prom, letters from high school, everything.
And what about you and lena? When did you sleep with her? I told you.
It was a couple weeks after you left, and, uh, You accused me of being responsible for william's death.
You remember that? So while you were off dealing with your emotions, How did--How did you just hook up with your ex-Boyfriend? I was dealing with my emotions.
I was also bored and lonely, and i ran into someone i knew, And we had a couple drinks, and--And i got hammered! What about you and lena? Were you drunk? Yeah, the first time.
The first time? So were you sober the second, third-- You went away, all right? Gone! Nothing! You think that gives you a right to cheat? Well, what's your excuse? I'll get her.
No, tommy.
We've got to figure this out for her.
I know.
Lena? I know i owe you two weeks notice And that i'm not being professional or whatever, But i just-- I can't be here anymore.
Did something happen? Listen, i'm not gonna sue or anything, If that's what you're worried about.
What made you decide to do this now? I thought i was in love with tommy but clearly i'm screwed up.
When i was with william, I thought, this isn't perfect, It's a compromise, but it's my choice.
I even thought that i was in control.
And for 20 years, I let that idea and that man dictate who i was.
When i finally realized that i was just filling in the gap For somebody else's relationship, it was too late, And i couldn't leave.
It is better if you figure this out now.
I hope so.
Lena.
Use this opportunity to find something that's yours.
Okay, make it for 10:00, and then change the 2:00.
All right.
Okay.
I'm--I'm sorry.
That's okay.
How are you, nora? Um well, i've hardly seen justin all week, But you'll be very happy to hear that Tommy and julia have said that they really, truly have-- Nora? I asked, how are you? Not your kids.
Oh.
How i am i I have no idea.
Uh, travis? I'm not gonna deal with that right now, Don't call back.
I'm dealing with something extremely important.
You understand? I'm sorry.
That's okay.
You're right.
This wine is surprising a very nice surprise.
???For my brother-In-Law-- He's ertainly t best-Lookg candidate we've ever had.
Yeah, not to mention he'd make a damn fine president.
To senator mccallister and his unwitting assist in today's victory.
I suppose if my sister has to marry a republican, I should benefit in some fashion.
Well, you know, you're just gonna end up being so rich that, Uh, you're probably gonna have to become a republican yourself.
That's a depressing thought.
Okay, so what happens If robert doesn't make it to the white house? Well, that connectn just got us in the door.
By election day, they're gonna be so impressed By ojai foods and by you, it's it's not gonna matter.
- Well, i hope you're right.
- Oh, yeah.
