He reads to Scotty every night, takes him to school every morning.
Your brother has stepped up.
Was he stepping up when he fell off the wagon two weeks ago? Previously on "Mistresses" He doesn't know that I'm sick.
- He won't forgive you for not telling him.
- I will.
After tomorrow.
This award means the world to him.
I killed my husband alone.
Josslyn Carver had nothing to do with it.
Carver.
Oh, my God, Karen, Joss is out! I cannot believe it.
Call me back.
Bye.
I overheard.
That's great news.
Yeah, it is.
You want to talk about it? Nope.
Just tell me one thing.
- Did you drink in the house? - No.
When you were driving the kids around? Of course not.
I would never do that.
When you took them to see my mural in Shantytown that night? I swear to you, April, it was never anywhere near the kids.
Scotty was out of town.
I spent the night at Harry's.
It was it was two days.
It was a slip a 48-hour slip.
But I'm on it with my sponsor, and I'm in meetings every day.
Okay.
"Okay"? What does that mean? What do you want it to mean, Marc? Look, I'm sorry you're so upset, but why are you surprised? You know better than anyone what sobriety is, that it's a constant friggin' battle.
No, I don't know what sobriety is, remember? My experience is living with people who say they don't have a problem when they do! I just I don't get it.
What triggered it? Everything seemed fine.
You seemed fine.
Whatever.
It doesn't matter.
Like you said, it was just a slip.
Yeah.
It was my slip, not yours.
I don't understand why you're taking it so personally.
I want to be in there.
Please, Alec, can you come sit so we can talk? - Hey, guys.
- What's happening? Vivian's awake and stable for the moment.
Her liver failed, which was the cause of her collapse.
Now we're alternating cyclo and prednisone.
Deterioration of the G.
I.
Tract is most likely next.
Just wait! W-what what are you talking about? - Alec - She's in acute GVH?! How is my wife suddenly in acute GVH?! You just saw her last week! How'd you not see this coming?! The doctor told Vivian two days ago that she was in stage 1.
We had no idea it would progress this quickly.
I'm sorry, Dr.
Jenkins.
Will you excuse us? Of course.
I'm so sorry, Alec.
But she begged me not to tell you.
She was gonna check in first thing tomorrow morning.
Get out of here, Karen.
- Hi.
- Hi.
You okay? Are you kidding me? This is the best moment of my life.
Well, that and, you know, using the toilet with the, uh, door closed.
That was pretty great, too.
- Yeah, I'll bet.
- Oh! Mmm.
Is that yours or mine? - It doesn't matter.
It doesn't matter.
- Mm, no.
I know, but I haven't spoken to Karen or April at all yet.
Hold on a second.
Oh, uh.
It's yours.
Um, it's a text from Ari.
"RDS wants to meet tomorrow"? Who's RDS? Uh, Rocco Dispirito.
Oh, yeah, you mentioned him.
What what's it for? Oh, it's an interview to write his next cookbook with him and to be in some webseries, apparently.
What?! That's amazing, honey! Mm, is it? - Harry! - What? Seriously, this could be awesome.
It could make you a frickin' star! I don't think a webseries ever made anyone a star, did it? Well, mm, no, but it doesn't it could still get you out from under the thumb of that raging butthole what's Ellis.
Oh, isn't that why you hired Ari anyway? - Mm.
- Hmm? Okay, listen this is how tomorrow's gonna go.
Okay, we're going to role-play the whole interview.
I'm gonna get you confident and prepared, and then we'll - But can you do me a favor? - Yes.
Keep planning, but can you, uh Can you just do it do it from down here? Oh.
- Just do that.
- Yes.
I just got excited.
Yeah, I saw that.
Oh, God, I just Oh, baby, I think after everything that's happened, I-I really, I just want to attack life.
- You know? - Yeah.
You want to talk about what's happened? No, I do not.
You know me, Harry I'm a ruminator.
And I think if I relive that nightmare, I'm just gonna get stuck.
I'm not gonna be able to stop, so Can I just can I just be a dude? Just John Wayne this? I really I just want to focus on our future, our life, and our new house.
I don't want to waste another precious moment talking about Cal I don't want to say her name, okay? - You don't have to.
- Okay.
Hey, Raines, new lawyer here to see you.
Not today.
Send him away.
You want me to I want you to send him away.
Can you get it? They catch you with it, it'll be bad for you.
I know what I'm doing.
Who's gonna do it? Hmm? Are you gonna do it? You know I can't do it.
I'll do it from here.
God, you guys are wusses! Frickin' sissies, I tell you! A toast! No, sir, this is a private toast.
Thank you.
To my ladies.
No, to you.
To your freedom.
Shh! My toast! Thank you, guys, for all the care packages and the letters that came every day.
Words can't express how amazing it is to just be standing here with you.
I thought I loved you before, but when you think that you'll never have something again, you just you know.
I know.
I know.
Oh, my God, stop! Enough! Moving on! All right, enough.
Mm, okay.
So, can you tell us what happened? Did David explain why Calista confessed? Did she suddenly wake up a decent person? No, no, she did not that woman would never do a self-sacrificing thing in her life without an agenda, but, seriously, that's all I want to say about it - Okay? - Okay.
Honey, what's going on? I'm so sorry to do this to you, sweetie, but I think I have to go.
Why? What happened? Vivian's in the hospital.
Oh, no.
And I think this might be it for her.
What?! Karen, no.
Alec banished me from the hospital, so I'm counting on this freakin' doctor to text me updates.
It's you should go.
You should be with her.
Yeah, why don't we just drive you? No, no, no, please stay and celebrate.
I love you, guys.
Welcome home.
Well, my problems seem trivial.
Next to death and incarceration, maybe, but tell me what's going on.
Marc and I had a fight.
Aw.
He fell off the wagon a couple of weeks ago.
Let me guess you took it personally? I did.
I don't know why.
I mean, he caught himself.
He's back in meetings.
It didn't affect me or the kids at all, but he didn't tell me about it.
I mean we live together.
Marc and I co-parent, for God's sakes.
Why didn't he tell me he was hurting? After everything I've shared with him? I have shared some dark stuff about my past stuff that I have never told anyone.
No offense.
Oh, none taken.
I guess I just thought that we were closer than that.
But He meant something to me that I didn't mean to him.
Hello, hello, hello! Good day.
- Nice to see you.
- Thank you.
You gonna cook in that? Ari didn't mention we'd be cooking, but that's that's good.
Yeah, yeah.
Uh, talk now, cook later? Come over here.
Have a seat.
Want some coffee or something? - No, I'm good.
Thank you.
- All right.
- Now, remind me.
You are? - Harry Davis.
- Of, uh, Wunderbar, right? - That's right, yeah.
Why do you, uh, want to work with me? You know, there's the answer I would've given yesterday and the one that just hit me about two minutes ago.
Why don't you give me yesterday's? When faced with "the man", you've always stood your ground, and if that ground gets challenged, you say, "screw it, then.
I'll fly.
" You made a brand out of your name and a life on your own terms.
What about today's answer? Well, you know, uh My mum worked two jobs, and my dad did not approve.
So he always made sure to be asleep before she got home.
And my older brothers and sister were were kind of wild and not really around either, so at about 6 years old Started making dinner for myself, and, uh, I guess it tasted pretty good 'cause soon the whole family would start straggling into the kitchen every night at the same time To come together and wait for my meal and for mum to come home.
T-this is you.
This is you in the photograph, right? It is.
Anyway, you know, the gig, uh, it starts immediately.
Yeah, I know.
So, we're gonna be traveling through Europe.
We're gonna be tasting local dishes.
We're gonna be cooking and amassing this collection of recipes.
Sorry to interrupt.
Rocco, um, the webseries shoots in Europe? Webseries? Dude, this is food network Oh, my God, how did it go?! Uh, yeah, it was, uh it was g it was fine.
I mean, he's a great guy.
We, uh, we talked, and I cooked, and he definitely liked my food, so That's amazing! You're totally gonna get it! I wouldn't count on it, Joss.
He's seeing a lot of other chefs.
Well, yeah, but you're still in the running, right? Yeah.
So don't give up.
You know what I'd like to do more than anything right now? See the house with you.
You want to meet me there for the inspections? Oh, baby, I am on my way.
Bye.
Whoa.
Oh, my God.
Don't worry.
He's not here.
You're safe.
He told you? I knew when you weren't here, he must've forced you to go.
I should never have put you in that position, Karen.
I can handle it.
I know.
You should've seen the way he yelled at me.
He didn't.
No.
I haven't seen him in hours, actually.
Really? Where'd he go? I don't know to Koreatown to find a new donor.
He's probably in his office Calling about trials, cashing in favors.
You know Alec.
What can I do? Can I call any family? Mm, my sister's flying in tomorrow.
My parents are cutting their Budapest trip short.
It's happening so fast, Karen.
How are you feeling, mama? Are your boobs really sore? I hear the boobs get sore.
They're a bit tender and bigger for me.
Can I feel your stomach? There's no bump, really, yet.
Just humor me? You got it.
Hmm.
But it's your favorite.
I want you to have it.
And we can talk every day, and we can Facetime.
My mom won't get me a phone.
Well, you can use my phone.
Come on, sweetie, Ron's waiting in the car.
I'm gonna miss you so much.
I'll miss you, too.
Hey.
Come here, dude.
Now, you ready to go on your recon mission to Vegas? Mm-hmm.
Remember, you scout it out.
You give me the thumbs-up And bam I'm there for a visit, and we'll check out all the cool spots.
You're not gonna live with us? No 'Cause you and your mom are gonna move into Ron's house, and Vegas isn't my home.
Is this your home? Okay, well, we're gonna hit traffic.
Let's go.
I love you, buddy.
You know that.
I love you, too.
Hey, sweetheart.
You come back and visit anytime, okay? I'm heading out to work.
Why don't I throw your bags in the car? I'll help.
I feel I should Thank you for everything.
No problem.
Don't be mad at Marc.
He didn't hide his drinking from you to be sneaky.
He just didn't want you to think any less of him.
I'm not sure he cares what I think.
Well, of course he does.
He's in love with you, April.
How did you not see that? - What do you want? - I want a restraining order.
- Against who Calista? - Yes, against Calista.
Oh, come on.
Joss, she's in jail.
Are you sure about that? Because I saw her Range Rover driving down San Vicente today.
And I saw one on Olive they made a few of those cars.
Joss, she's in jail.
She's behind bars she can't hurt you from there.
It's taunting me, David.
She's she's trying to get inside my head.
And I'm really I'm just trying to get on with my life, okay? - I won't have this.
- I'll see a judge about it, okay? Today, it's a basket.
Tomorrow, it's a boiled bunny.
Joss, I said don't worry.
I'll take care of it.
Okay.
Hey.
You're headed out? Yeah, just going to see Joss.
Must be nice to have her back.
Oh, mate, you've got no idea.
Uh, hey, listen, before you go, I've got kind of a thorny question.
Um, how much time would you need to replace me? What? You're quitting? Oh, wow.
Uh, w-what happened? Did you find a better job? No, it's not that.
I think the the Marc-L.
A.
experiment has kind of run its course.
Think I might go trek Machu Picchu, get off the grid for a while.
Uh-huh.
Did April reject you? I think it's safe to say I have plummeted in her esteem.
She found out about the drinking.
And the way she used to look at me? That look that Gave me hope that maybe someday she might Feel the same? Well That, my friend, is gone.
So you're just gonna run away? What's my life here, really, Harry? Living in an R.
V.
, working in a kitchen.
I don't even want to be a chef.
I mean, aside from your friendship, which has meant a lot to me, by the way There's nothing in this place for me.
Except the woman you're in love with, right? Thanks for everything, man.
He left me one, too.
Hey, honey.
Are you okay? I'm okay.
I mean I knew when Scotty left, he was bound to go, too.
But we're gonna be pen pals.
I'm in his life forever, he said.
So, um, you want to come with me to work, or I can find somebody to watch you.
I can stay by myself now, mom.
You're right.
Oh, you're all grown up.
Hey, um, can I see the letter? Sure.
Thanks.
See, this is exactly why I didn't want to tell you.
Harry, please, it's taken care of.
I promise you she's not gonna contact me again.
I want to hear about your interview.
I just I don't understand.
How did she get her stationery from jail? Well, you can get anything with money and determination, and she's got both, but Please, you tell me about Rocco I want details.
David is gonna take care of this, right? Do I need to call him again? No.
Here.
Honey, let's just focus on what's important.
I here.
Just tell me about your interview, please.
Yeah, it was horrible.
- It was horrible? - And great.
Okay.
First of all, it is not some little webseries.
It's a real network show 13 episodes.
Holy crap! back-end points on the book.
What?! And he liked you? Yeah, I believe so.
So, why are you not smiling? Because even if I get it and that is a very big "if" there is no way I'm gonna take it.
Why? It's 12 months abroad, Joss a year traveling through Europe.
Ah.
Oh, my God.
Mm-hmm.
Mm.
Okay.
Harry, come on.
I love you, but don't be an idiot.
Of course you have to take it if you get it.
Did you hear what I just said? Did you hear what you just said?! It's a year in Europe with Rocco.
It's incredible! Yeah, it would be incredible, except Harry, come here.
No, come here.
Baby Hmm? I am yours forever.
A year is not gonna change anything.
You say that now.
I know it.
I know.
Don't you understand what this could mean for you? This could give you all the power in the world to make your life exactly what you want it to be, make our life what we want it to be.
Joss I just got you back.
I know, but mm planes, trains, and automobiles, baby.
I'll come visit a lot, and When I can't, we can Skype or Sext.
Write love letters? We can write love letters.
Little love letters.
Little love letters from Europe with little pasta stains on them.
Mm.
Hmm? Okay, call, call.
- Really? - Yeah, call the Israeli.
Tell her to push for it.
- I love you so much.
- I love you, too.
Hey, it's Harry Davis.
Is she in? Vivian?! Vivian! We need a doctor in here! Vivian?! Page Dr.
Adams quickly please! Karen, I need you to step outside.
We're gonna take care of her, okay? Yeah, I've got it.
Stand by.
Damn it, Alec, pick up! Sh-should we wait for Alec? Just tell me.
The good news is, she's a fighter.
The bad news is, she's deteriorating a lot faster than we anticipated.
The crash that just occurred was due to septic shock.
The bacteria in her bloodstream caused her lungs to fill with fluid.
Her blood pressure dropped.
We've put her on a respirator.
What happens next? Her organs are shutting down one by one, Karen.
After the lungs is the heart And that's the last thing to go.
Her loved ones should come say what they need to say now.
Can I see her? In a bit she's in isolation at the moment.
- I'll let you know when she's ready, okay? - Okay.
This is Dr.
Alec Adams.
Please leave a message.
Come on! So, you're just gonna live in the house alone? Uh, what? If Harry goes to Europe, are you just gonna Live in that house alone? Um, yeah, I-I I don't know.
I-I guess so, right? It's still our house.
It's the home he'd be coming home to, so, yeah, I guess.
Well, if you get lonely in that big, old house, you can crash with me whenever you want.
God knows the place is empty.
Scotty left? Yep.
So did Marc.
What?! When already? What was he gonna do live with me as a boarder? Are you okay? Yeah, I Just got used to coming home to him, I guess, s-seeing him in the middle of the night - when neither of us could sleep.
- Right.
He made me laugh like nobody else.
The guy is really funny.
And he had this way of taking care of me without me knowing it, you know? Mm-hmm.
Without making me feel "less than" or like I couldn't take care of myself.
Wow.
Sounds like a really, um, special kind of friend, April.
Who was really adorable, too, you know? Do you hear yourself right now? I do.
I just don't recognize the voice.
Um, it's the voice of a woman who's completely in love with Marc.
Oh! Oh, my when did this happen? How did I miss this? How did I not see myself?! Oh, my God, I have to call him.
Yes, you do immediately! You're blushing! Oh, my God! - The mailbox is full.
- What? This number cannot accept messages at this time.
I'm kind of hungry for Wunderbar.
You want to go over there? Thatagirl! Yes! Okay, I just got to do one thing in the back.
Okay.
Oh, my God! U-uh, April, I'll meet you there, okay?! Alec? I'm on the phone with Karolinska University hospital in Stockholm.
Hang up the phone, Alec.
They just cured a case of advanced GVH using mesenchymal stem cells.
Yes, no, I'm still holding.
Vivian needs you downstairs.
This is the one, Karen.
I can feel it.
Let me have the phone.
What are you doing? It's happening now, Alec.
She's going, and you're gonna miss it.
Do you want to be up here chasing a miracle, or do you want to say goodbye to your wife? I can't.
Yes, you can.
I can't bear it, Karen.
There's got to be something I can do.
You can be with her.
Hi.
I'm happy you're here.
I thought you'd Come sooner, but it's okay.
Cut the crap, Calista.
What are you You're gonna walk in here all nice and innocent like that? I I know what you did.
I'm not an idiot.
I got it all figured out, okay? You realized you wouldn't stand a chance in hell at trial, so you copped to it.
It's it's really, really smart, you know? You might get a lighter sentence from the judge, it's 'Cause everybody knows you're guilty.
I mean, for God's sakes, even Patty thinks you're guilty.
Um I'm not quite sure why you're here.
I want you to stop texting me, Calista.
I want you to stop sending me stuff.
Stop contacting me at all.
I'm not contacting you.
I know you, Calista.
No, you don't know me.
It was your frickin' handwriting on the stationery.
I don't know what's happening to you out there, but I-I assure you, it has nothing to do with me.
I don't know.
Maybe whoever killed Luca is coming after you.
Uh, s-so, are you saying that the real killer is out there, taunting me? That's why would anyone do that, Calista? I don't know.
I don't know why anyone does anything, but I do know why you are out there, free.
That's friendship.
I wish you well.
I do.
Patty Deckler.
Hi, Patty.
It's Josslyn Carver.
What could you possibly want? I realize that I'm the last person that you want to talk to, okay? But I just I was hoping that maybe you could tell me why Calista confessed.
What do you care? You're out.
Please, Patty, did you get her some kind of a deal or a lighter sentence or something if she fessed up to the truth? Not at all.
In fact, the only way she was gonna get a deal was if she threw you under the bus, which I urged her to do.
- So, then why - Why, indeed.
Because she cared about you, apparently, and I guess she just couldn't let you go down for something she knew you didn't do.
Is that it? I'd like to go now.
So, you're telling me that the basket wasn't sent to taunt me? It was an actual "welcome home"? What basket? Calista sent me a gift basket yesterday.
That's not possible.
She's in prison.
We both know she can get anything from the outside.
She had magazines and candy within minutes of being there.
The woman has access.
Oh, she did have access through me, but then she fired me, remember? So she's got nobody else now.
He quit? Just like that? Mm, yeah, I tried to talk him into staying, but his mind was Was pretty made up.
Well, do you know where he went? I'd tried calling So, he didn't go and see you before he left? Left?! Where did he go? Well, I don't know exactly.
He mentioned something about heading to Machu Picchu and going off the grid for a while.
What?! Yeah, he seemed to think he needed distance from from here to figure some stuff out.
I mean, personally, I thought he should stay and, you know Confront things.
Yeah, um Confronting would've been would've been good.
Look, April, he he may call me to check in.
If he does, I'll tell him you were looking for him.
I know he'd be really happy to hear that.
Okay.
Oh, sorry, April, can you excuse me for one second? Pack your bags, baby.
You're gonna cook on the continent.
- No way.
- Congratulations.
So? Do I tell Rocco you accept? Yes.
I accept, yes! - Wait a second.
- What? I need you to get me one thing.
Hi, have you seen a tall he's right there.
Thank you.
- Honey? - Hey.
What's happening? Why am I meeting you here? I thought you were at work.
I was, but, uh I got the gig.
- You got the gig?! - Uh-huh.
Oh, my God, honey, I'm so proud of you! Oh, hang on, but there's only one rub, though.
Um They want to leave tomorrow night.
Rocco wants to catch the end of the Festa Di Noiantri.
It's this food festival in Rome.
They want to leave tomorrow night? Yeah.
So, you want to come with me, or what? What are you what? I told Ari I would not take the gig unless my love could come, too.
You are in the contract, baby.
So what do you say?! Oh, my God! - Are you kidding me right now?! - No! Oh, my God! I was gonna miss you so much! I know, I know.

Because I know that you would've been the most amazing thing to have happened in my life.
And God knows my life has been filled With amazing things.
Now There's some things you need to know.
Yes, I know how it sounds, Detective, okay? But that basket didn't come from her, so Right, so, what, you just got your confession, and now you're not concerned about the truth, or Yeah, uh, well, you were satisfied thinking that I did it for the longest time, and I'm innocent, so what I'm saying what I'm saying is, I just I think that the real killer may still be out there.
I'm sorry.
Can you just hold on one second? Harry, hi! Listen, before you say anything, uh, this call is being filmed.
Wait, oh, my God, they're there already?! Yep, Grizz and I are on our way to pick you up now.

Detective Whitehead? Oh, damn it! Um, hi.
This is Josslyn Carver.
I received a basket from you guys yesterday, but it had someone's, um, personal stationery on it.
How does that happen? She brought it in personally, along with her own wines from home.
Wait, who brought it in personally? The woman who bought your basket.
Do you remember her name or what she looked like? Was it Maritza? I don't remember, and she paid in cash, so All right, okay, thanks.
Viv? Can you hear me? I was just thinking That after everything I've been through in my life very little surprises me.
But you You surprised me.
Boy, did you surprise me.
And I am so grateful for that.
When I first met you I was so lost.
Remember? I thought saving you would give my life meaning.
But now Now, sitting here I know that loving you is what has.
My sweet Graceful friend.
Vivian? Vivian? Yeah, but I don't understand your website, which is why I called you! I can't tell from this page what time the flight to Machu Picchu actually leaves.
Every time I click on it, it crashes.
Well, can you tell me how to stop a person from getting on that flight? "Go to the airport.
" You've been very helpful! I sold my R.
V.
You did? I thought it was time to just choose a place and Start planting roots.
Look, I don't like L.
A.
much.
I mean, I get why people who were born here stay, but I don't get why people choose it.
So I polled a few people On the street.
Oh, yeah? What did they say? That people come here for two reasons.
For career And for love.
We both know I don't have a career.
I don't even have a job.
But I think I'm in love.
Well, I know it, actually.
I love you, April.
And I clearly caught you on your way to something.
So I'll Just let you go.
I don't need to go anymore! Why not? I was coming to find you.
Maritza, hey, it's Joss again.
I I don't understand why you're not picking up.
Please, I-I really need to talk to you.
Can you call me back as soon as you get this? Damn it! Mm, where is she? I have no idea.
I'm gonna call her again now.
Hey, Harry, uh, check this out.
This is our itinerary.
We're gonna start here.
We're gonna end up in Rome, just in time for this incredible food festival.
