Brothers & Sisters s04e03 Episode Script

Almost Normal

Radius.
Ulna.
Olecranon.
- It's like dating a French guy.
- Bonjour.
It's Latin, and by the way, we are way past dating.
That's why I'm going wedding dress shopping with Kitty today.
With Kitty? Well, I helped her find her dress.
I figured we could be each other's good luck charms in the dress department.
That's sweet.
- Can I tell you my fantasy? - No, I won't be a slutty bride.
Damn it.
Well, maybe you can just buy a dress that shows your humerus.
And your acromion.
And your cheek.
You don't know the medical term for cheek? You know what? You are shattering a guy's confidence on the first day of Gross Anatomy.
Come on.
Nothing ever happens on the first day, anyways.
You get your textbooks and the syllabus.
Yeah, and apparently a lab partner.
It better not be a hot girl.
Let's hope it's not someone stupid who doesn't know what he's doing.
Seems like you're getting your confidence back.
Now where were we, doctor? Doctor.
I have a real good feeling about this, Kitty.
Yeah, and whatever happens, we're gonna deal with it.
Hey, guys, I'm sorry about the wait.
You know, you can go right ahead and tell me I need to talk to you about your CT scan.
Now, thankfully, your bone marrow is clean.
But this bright area here is an enlarged lymph node in the hila of your lung.
There's another cluster in your bowel and there's some more in your retroperitoneum.
That's the area behind your abdominal cavity.
- So So it's spread.
- Yeah, unfortunately.
Which puts it at stage three.
Look, I know that this sounds scary, but compared to other cancers, stage three lymphoma can have a good outcome with proper treatment.
- What is the proper treatment? - Well, there are basically two options.
One, the standard of care, is R-CHOP, that's a chemotherapy cocktail.
And what's the other option? Well, there's a drug that was developed in Europe, called rapamycin.
A hospital in Boston is conducting clinical trials and Kitty may be eligible.
But you have to go there for treatment and it could last six months.
Now, they are showing a somewhat better prognosis.
But the risks of complications are also higher.
Heart damage, it could jeopardize your immune system, which would already be compromised by the chemo.
I wish that there was a clear-cut choice.
But there are pros and cons to both.
I only do the standard regimen.
Because you think it's a better treatment? No, because she practices here and the trial's in Boston.
You know what? Why don't I give you the research? Take it home, read it over and then you can discuss your options.
Okay? But I have to stress, Kitty, that the sooner you make a decision, the better.
Okay.
Okay.
Thank you.
Travis, I don't care that you work for Governor Kern, you know the protocol.
The senator's the ranking official when it comes to greeting international guests.
Nice try, but the governor of California is gonna be at the bottom of those stairs when the prince of Wales sets his pretty royal toe on California soil.
Really? Then, I'd hate to see your face when His Royal Highness walks straight past her and says hi to the senator because they played golf together in Scotland.
- I didn't know you had a baby.
- You know, maybe we can, you know, set up something with the prince in the hotel, like a photo op.
Do I need to call 911? I think he's hungry.
Or maybe he's just wet.
- Scotty! It's not a baby.
- Yeah, well whatever it is, deal with it.
Look, I'm glad we settled this issue.
You know what? We didn't settle any What are you doing? That was important.
You keep insisting we can manage a baby with two careers so I thought we'd have a dress rehearsal.
Your timing sucks! I have this visit and two press releases to get out! I have tonight's menu to prepare.
And that crying baby? Someone needs to change his diaper.
It's a poopy one.
You made your point.
We'll talk about this later.
Yeah, well, it's always later, Kevin.
That's the problem.
Nice balance.
Fruit forward.
- Little smoke on the finish, huh? - It does.
- Thank you so much.
- You're very welcome.
Thank you.
So tell me something, this what we're bidding on? Ten thousand gallons, if the price stays under 5.
25 a gallon.
Five twenty-five? Nobody's gonna bid Trust me, you take that swill and you add it to our grapes - and you will get a nice bottle of wine.
- Oh, Holly, that's short-term thinking.
I don't care how cheaply you're gonna sell it, in the long run, it's gonna ruin our brand.
You know, how many times do I have to tell you, Saul, that we are gonna market under a different label? - What, old flame? - No, just a business acquaintance.
Saul Holden.
I heard a rumor your family had expanded into the wine business.
Yeah, well, how about that? What about you? How's the cattle business? - Runs itself, so this is my new hobby now.
- Great.
You know, at our age, it's good to keep your mind fresh.
Yeah.
Oh, sorry.
This is Holly Harper.
She's the president of Ojai Foods.
And this gentleman is Dennis York.
A woman in charge.
Well, well.
William certainly would have approved.
Sorry to hear of his passing, by the way.
It's a terrible loss.
Your concern is touching, Dennis.
Well, good luck with the bidding.
Nice to meet you, Holly Harper.
Let's do it.
Wow, this is inspiring.
There is a whole community of people that have been through this and they're all really positive.
Listen, there's a Debbie Feel Well from Florida and she says the R-CHOP was very doable.
She was diagnosed with stage four lymphoma and now she's NED.
No evidence of disease.
- Oh, wow, look at this.
- What? Look at this.
That's a wedding dress.
Can you imagine how good that would look on Rebecca? Honey, I thought we were researching treatment options, Kitty.
Well, we were.
But now I'm researching wedding dresses.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God, look at this one.
Look at that.
I mean, that almost makes me wanna get married again.
It's really beau Honey, you heard the doctor.
You have to make a decision now.
I will.
But we're going shopping and I need to help Rebecca find a wedding dress.
All right.
Look, are you gonna tell her what's going on? Yes, yes, of course.
Right when she's zipping up her Carolina Herrera.
I know you don't want anyone to know about this yet, Kitty.
But everyone here talks about how important it is - to have a strong support system.
- Mom, you need to get off-line.
I will figure this out.
I will make the right decision and I promise you I will be NED.
- No evidence of disease.
- Yes, never enough donuts.
Never enough dresses.
Never I love you.
- She went shopping? - Yes.
Look, I understand she needs a distraction.
But, Robert, there really isn't time for that.
Do you know what her prognosis is? Fifty-five percent.
Yeah, with R-CHOP.
But I just got off the phone with the head researcher in Boston.
He says his treatment will give her an extra five percent chance.
Yes, I read the study, but the But the sample population was only a few hundred patients.
That's really not enough to tell.
And the side effects.
There's heart damage That was a woman who was 65 years old with a history of diabetes and smoked.
Kitty's young and healthy.
Blood clots, it can devastate her immune system.
Now, if the R-CHOP doesn't work or she has a relapse I'm not waiting for a relapse.
I don't care what the side effects are as long as she lives.
I just don't think this is right for her at this time.
- And she'd be 3,000 miles away.
- Well, I'd go with her, obviously.
Oh, and when would you be there, exactly? You're running for governor.
Who would take care of Evan? Her family is here.
I am here.
But if the best treatment is there, then that's where she needs to be.
If I thought that were true, I would be helping her pack right now.
- I don't think it's right for her.
- Look, she is my wife, okay? - We're gonna do whatever's best for us.
- No, no, no.
- Are you gonna play the husband card? - I don't even know what that means.
Up until recently, you have been completely MIA.
Are you gonna swoop in now and save the day, is that it? - I just want her well.
- Listen to me, I don't care if you're senator or governor or the king of Siam.
You've not shown me that her life is safe in your hands.
- You don't get to call the shots.
- Well, I'm sorry you feel that way.
But you are right about one thing.
The only person that's gonna be calling the shots is Kitty.
Yes, she is.
This is it.
Gross Anatomy.
My name is Professor Madsen and I'm here to tell you that whatever you told yourself, getting in was not the hard part.
Here, there will be many opportunities to fail.
You're not smart enough, the work isn't good enough, or you simply can't handle the pressure.
Oh, inspirational, isn't he? There are three people who will determine your fate in this class.
One of them is me.
The other, your cadaver.
And the third is your lab partner.
Now, in this class, as in life, you don't get to choose your co-workers.
You might not like them.
So you have to find a way to work with them.
Okay? So the next time we'll begin with the upper limb.
Be familiar with it.
So I've drawn up a study schedule for the first half of the year.
Oh, great.
- It's color-coded.
- By body part.
You've acquainted yourself with the upper limb, right? Yeah.
The bones and muscles, I'm good to go.
It's the tendons and ligaments I'm a little Wait, wait, what? The majority of arm injuries: Lateral epicondylitis, adhesive capsulitis, inflammatory impingement, all are tendon-related.
What? We weren't supposed to know those for today though, right? No.
You see, I volunteered at an orthopedic lab to help patent a synthetic bone paste.
I mean, you can't expect to know everything I'm gonna know, but you will need to keep up with the basics.
I'm sorry, how old are you? Sixteen.
Graduated with honors.
And, yes, my social maturity has been tested.
I was gonna get mine tested tomorrow.
I have us going over the musculature of the torso by early next week.
- Is that gonna be a problem? - No.
No, no, I'll catch up.
You better.
Because you heard what he said.
Our fates are tied and I will be acing this class.
And no Doogie Howser jokes.
No.
Oh, my gosh, this is definitely the best one so far.
- What do you think, Monique? - She looks good in everything.
I don't know about that.
- How do you feel about feathers? - Like they belong on birds.
- Monique.
- The symphony gown with the ostrich skirt, I got it.
Are you serious? Kitty, I can't wear a feathered dress.
I'm gonna feel like Big Bird.
Come on, you have to at least try it on.
Rebecca, you are the bride.
You have got to embrace your inner princess.
I don't have an inner princess.
You are gonna have to get one.
You are young and you are beautiful.
- Are you drunk? - No.
No, I am not drunk.
I am I'm excited.
Can I remind you that when you were getting married, I couldn't get you to try on one dress? Well, I was stupid and I was an idiot.
I mean, look at us, Rebecca! We are surrounded by tulle, and lace, and feathers.
We have to enjoy this.
You never know what's gonna happen tomorrow.
We could all get hit by a bus.
- We're not gonna get hit by a bus.
- You don't know that.
Things can change in a blink of an eye.
Are you sure you're okay? I am drinking champagne and I am watching my beautiful future sister-in-law try on the most gorgeous dresses I have ever seen in my life.
I mean, I am more than okay.
I'm great.
I never wanna leave.
I mean, l I love you and l Honestly, I could stay in this store forever.
Okay, fine, I will try on the feathers.
Good idea.
Okay.
Be careful.
Be careful.
Okay.
Our next lot up for bid is 10,000 gallons of a 2008 Cabernet from Vittarelli Estates.
We'll start the bidding today, $2 a gallon.
Do I have $2? Two dollars right here, looking for 2.
25.
Thank you, 2.
25, do I have 2.
50? Two fifty, looking for 2.
75.
Two seventy-five, do I have 3? Two-seventy-five, do I have 3? Two seventy-five, going once, going twice Six dollars.
Six dollars.
Going once at $6.
- Six dollars, going twice.
- We can't go that high.
Sold at six dollars.
Up next, we have a 2006 Who is he and what the hell is he doing? - Hey.
- I already called the State Department and told them the senator will be meeting the plane, so you can save your breath.
No, I'm here about Kitty.
I'm sorry, by the way.
When are you doing the press conference? - What are you talking about? - Look, we know.
We're telling everyone on the campaign hands-off.
Leave it alone completely.
And if you give us a day, we can have the governor cancel any appearances she has, out of respect.
Out of respect for what? Look, I'm in this thing to win, but even I wouldn't use a wife's cancer to score points.
Are you? You didn't know? - It's Kev.
- Oh, hey.
You are not gonna believe what Travis tried to do to me today.
He tried to tell me that you have That you're sick.
But I mean, like, really sick.
That's insane, right? Tell me Come on, tell me that's insane.
He's gonna try to spin this into a reason that Robert can't run for governor.
- You're gonna have to get What? - Kit! I'm sorry, is this true? Oh, God.
Oh, God.
Oh, God.
I'm I'm gonna have to figure this out.
Kit, it's me.
It's your little brother, you can - Please talk to me.
- Yeah, yeah.
Please tell me.
Tell me.
What do you have? Where is it? - How long have you known? - Well, it's lymphoma.
And, Kevin, I am so sorry that you had to find out this way.
- No, no, that's okay.
- God, I'm gonna have to tell everybody.
No, you don't.
You absolutely don't.
I can keep this a secret as long as you want.
I know you don't think I can.
I will, I promise.
No.
You know what, I think it's actually better if I just tell everybody at once.
You know, just to get it out there.
You know what I can do is, I can call Mom and I'll just have her arrange one of her dinners.
But it's like Oh, Kev.
Kev, it's okay.
It's gonna be okay.
Yes, Nora, of course I'm gonna be there.
Yeah.
I'll leave as soon as I can.
Okay, dear, bye.
So that guy that just stole 10,000 gallons of wine right out from under us? Well, it turns out he was indicted on felony charges years ago for price fixing at Voley Foods.
Didn't William work at Voley back then? - So, what are you getting at? - Come on, Saul.
Don't be cagey with me.
This guy just sabotaged a major component of my business plan.
- Right.
- He knew William, he's undermining us, so, what are we dealing with here? What do you know? They worked together at Voley Foods.
They started together.
They shared accounts.
Obviously, they were very good at it and decided they wanted to be on their own, and they needed capital.
Let me guess, they stole from the company.
There was an investigation.
Maybe William kept his hands clean, maybe he saw it coming, I don't know.
But he ended up testifying and Dennis ended up doing five years.
Why does this not surprise me? That's all I know and right now I have to be somewhere.
Where are you going? I mean, if this is some ancient grudge match - then we've gotta talk about this.
- That can wait.
This can't.
Maybe this is about Sarah.
- Okay, everyone, here she is.
- Hey.
Hey, guys, I'm so sorry to keep you waiting.
What's going on? Oh, no.
- Are you guys getting a divorce? - No, no, no.
I'm so sorry, I have Gross Anatomy class tomorrow morning - and my lab partner has a patent, so - Well - It's about me.
- Oh, God.
- Kevin.
- Kevin, are you crying? Kevin, don't.
Saul? Saul.
Saul, why are you crying? - I had to tell someone.
- Well, somebody better tell us.
- I'm starting to panic here.
- Yeah.
It's okay.
It's I I have cancer.
It's lymphoma.
It's in stage three, which isn't the worst.
- Kitty.
- Oh, my God.
- It just means that it spread a little bit.
- But it's not in her bone marrow.
No.
And my oncologist is very positive about the prognosis.
It's just a matter now of deciding what treatment to do.
Chemo or radiation? Well, R-CHOP probably, which is chemo.
- It's the standard of care.
- Maybe.
And she's also been accepted into a clinical trial in Boston.
- I have? - Yeah, I made a call.
- I asked you not to make that call.
- You may be going to Boston? What? No.
Well, I may I don't know.
I don't know what I'm gonna do.
- Mom, can you please sit down? - Oh, sorry.
I'm just gonna take some time and figure out what to do.
But, you know, let's just have a normal night.
- Yeah.
- It's gonna be fine.
And Mom made some turkey meat loaf.
Yeah.
So come on, let's all sit down and eat.
Robert, I could use your help in the kitchen.
I can't believe you made that call.
I asked you not to start throwing your weight around.
- Hey, I'm gonna keep our options open.
- They are Kitty's options to decide.
You just told everybody she was doing R-CHOP.
I did not, I said probably! Crap! Nora, look, she wasn't accepted into this trial because I made a call.
You don't know that.
You would only know that had you not made the call.
They think it's gonna save her life.
Well, of course they would say that.
They're the ones running the study.
Look, I started a cancer center.
I happen to know the politics of clinical trials.
And I know the politics of this family.
You don't want her in Boston because you want her here.
Do you think I would jeopardize the health of my daughter for geography? Please.
Don't touch those buns.
So how's the surrogacy going? - Well, you know - Coming along.
Good.
I've got garlic rolls.
A few of them fell on the ground, but ten-second rule.
- They'll be fine, they'll be fine.
- Oh, no, thanks.
Thanks, Mom.
So you're reading it, huh? I'd better go into the kitchen and see what's going on.
I think she needs some help.
That's a hell of a lot better than what might happen to her if she decides to be a lab rat.
Guys, rolls.
Stage three.
How bad is that? I mean, will she have to be hospitalized? I know nothing about oncology.
- You're a med student.
- In basic anatomy.
Oh, God, I dragged her dress shopping today.
You know what she kept talking about? How we could all be hit by a bus tomorrow.
And she was right, we all have been.
- Your poor mom.
- Oh, my mom.
Look, why don't we go help her with dinner, okay? Yeah.
Blood clots in the lungs and heart failure or nausea and hair loss.
- Pick one.
Pick one, Saul.
- I can't pick one.
It's impossible The study we're talking about increases her chances of beating this.
Period.
She can beat it with R-CHOP, without jeopardizing her health any further.
And besides that, her family is here.
Her support system is here.
Right.
Right, I agree with Nora on this, Robert.
Of course you do.
It's always a packaged deal with you guys.
Everybody together no matter what, but this isn't Thanksgiving.
Don't you dare talk to me like th Don't patronize me.
- I'm not patronizing you.
- I'm not talking about Thanksgiving, You know what I just thought of? I mean, I could cook for you.
We could leave a big cooler outside your door with fresh meals in it every day and you wouldn't have to worry about that.
That's really sweet, Scotty, but you know what? I'm not gonna be an invalid.
I'm gonna be able to cook.
But I have the answer for you guys.
- Live-in nanny.
- I'm sorry, I can't do this.
Look, I know you wanna talk about meat loaf and babies, but I can't sit here and pretend everything's normal.
I'm so sorry.
- I'm sorry, I feel like I should talk to him.
- Yeah, it's okay.
I understand.
You should go get him.
Okay.
Mom's right.
That's all they talk about in rehab, is your support system.
- Kitty doesn't have an addiction! - Kitty's alone out there, we Robert, if it is such a good treatment, why is it not the standard of care? That's right.
And why hasn't the American Cancer Association come out in support - or the FDA approved it? Why? - Because FDA won't update its protocol and streamline their approvals.
You have no idea how many drugs that could save peoples' lives - are just stuck in bureaucratic red tape.
- You don't know which one is which.
What about AZT? They approved that in seven days.
After huge political pressure.
No one's marching on Capitol Hill for lymphoma.
Thank you, Kevin.
She should have the most aggressive treatment.
- Kevin, aggressive could kill her! - No, no, cancer could kill her.
Aggressive could kill her! - Mom, Mom! - What? What? Oh, Kitty.
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
I mean, I know this was just such a shock.
But, you know, all this fighting is not gonna help me.
And it's not gonna help anything.
You know, I just I just really wanted to have a normal dinner, you know? And it was so crazy of me to think that we could just eat and talk and be normal because, of course, you're right.
You're right, Kev.
There's nothing normal about - Are you all right? - Yeah.
Yeah.
I just Oh, God, I'm tired.
- I'm gonna get your things.
- Yeah, I think I need to go home and Mom I'm so sorry that this was just such a bad idea.
I'm sorry.
It's okay.
I'll see you soon.
Can I say something that's wildly inappropriate? If it has anything to do with death, dying, or cancer, I don't think I can take it.
- Actually, it's about the opposite.
- Okay.
Let's have a baby.
I warned you it was inappropriate.
I'm touched that you wanna do this for me.
But having a baby, it's just not gonna help.
I'm not trying to help.
You know, ever since this surrogacy idea came up, I've been obsessed with what a huge obligation a baby would be and all the precious time I'd lose.
And then tonight I don't wanna wait until the right time to have a baby.
- There is no right time.
- But there is a wrong time.
All I can do right now is think about Kitty, and that wouldn't be fair to a baby or to you.
Maybe in a couple of months? Now you sound like me.
- I'm sorry.
- No.
We'll wait.
I love you.
I love you too.
Those textbooks must be really boring.
All right, so what are we gonna go with? Are you gonna go with? Are you gonna go with strapless or What's this one called? This one.
- Halter.
- Halter.
You don't have to do this.
Listen to me.
There is nothing more that I want in this world than to walk down that aisle with you.
But the thought of Kitty forcing herself to celebrate - She wouldn't be forcing herself.
- Then everyone else would be.
Justin, you didn't want to elope because you wanted our entire families to be there to celebrate.
But it's not a celebration.
Not if Kitty's sick.
I mean, halter or strapless, whatever.
It just doesn't feel right, does it? - No.
- I know that at our engagement party I said I wanted our wedding to be a priority.
But right now I think that Kitty should be the priority.
So I was thinking, maybe we should postpone.
Come here.
I would have called, but I think you would have hung up on me.
- Robert, it's late.
- I'm not here to argue.
- I think we need to get on the same page.
- I don't know that we'll ever be.
Well, we both love Kitty.
I don't think we'd be fighting as much if we didn't.
Come in.
- Have you talked to Tommy or Sarah? - No.
I've left messages for both of them, I haven't heard back.
But that's not why you're here, Robert.
Kitty's mad.
She's mad at me.
She's mad at you.
Yes.
And we've both been making this about ourselves and it's not fair to her.
She needs to know that we're gonna support her whatever decision she makes.
Both of us.
- She knows I'll support her.
- No.
No, she knows you want her here with you.
Well, if she decides to go to Boston, I'll go with her there.
Well, then, tell her.
And, Nora, she She needs you in a lot of ways more than she needs me.
Look, you said that you didn't feel her life was safe in my hands.
- Robert - No, it's okay.
I mean, I know you've been angry.
I've been angry.
I'm angry at everything.
And Kitty and I were just beginning to try to rebuild our marriage and now this.
Robert, Kitty's right.
You can't stop living just because she's sick.
And you certainly can't stop working on your relationship.
As a matter of fact, it's a very good time to start.
- What if there's not enough time? - Stop! Don't do that.
Kitty's going to be fine.
I'm sorry.
I just can't imagine what it would be like if it were one of my kids.
Well, you would probably fight like hell with their spouse too.
I don't wanna fight.
Good.
Because I think we're gonna need each other.
The people on these tables donated themselves to become a vital part of your education.
Treat them with the respect that they deserve.
Yes? Let's begin.
- Yeah, I think so.
- Okay.
What's his name? Douglas, 47, died of pancreatic cancer.
You want the honors? You all right? - I'm gonna be right back.
- Carter.
I think he actually forgot his glasses somewhere.
Excuse me.
- What is this, your first dead body? - Can you just? - Can you just give me a moment, please? - No, I can't.
Look, I was really intimidated by you, but right now you're the one in the fetal position.
Yeah, you're making that real easy, thanks.
All right, look, I know how to do this.
Okay, I've been to war and I've seen dead bodies.
And let me tell you something, patients are a lot scarier.
All right, Douglas in there, he can't cry, he can't scream in pain, he can't die.
So you're telling me you're not freaked out at all? Oh, no, I'm freaked out.
I'm freaked out by the index card in there that says he died of pancreatic cancer at age 47.
You see, my sister, who's a little younger than that, was just diagnosed with lymphoma, okay? And I bet that it's some boy genius like you who's gonna find a cure.
All right, you're terrified of Douglas? I'm terrified I'm not gonna learn what I need to learn in order to be a doctor.
And I know you know the tendons like your ABCs, but last night I was busy, so I didn't get a chance to review them.
I need this.
And I'm not gonna let you screw this up.
So let's get in there and dissect the upper limb.
Come on.
All right.
- Will you do the cutting? - Yeah.
You bet.
Here, look, put these on.
Makes you look older.
Come on.
Listen, I've been going over my research and I find that there's some very compelling arguments toward doing the clinical trial.
- Oh, God, Mom.
- I'm just saying, whatever you decide, I'm with you a 150 percent.
Five hundred percent.
Robert and I both are.
- Did he talk to you? - He didn't tell you? Well, he showed up on my doorstep last night.
- He did? - Yes.
And, Kitty, I'm sorry if it seemed like I was pressuring you.
And, you know, Boston is really not that far away and it's a wonderful city.
There's Quincy Market and Newbury Street Mom, it's not like I would exactly be there to sightsee, okay? No.
No, but we can make it work.
I would go with you and I could take care of Evan.
And who knows, maybe we would go sightseeing.
You don't know how you'd feel.
Everybody responds differently to chemo.
Okay, fine.
You know what? Maybe even Rebecca and Justin can have their honeymoon there.
Honey, I think their wedding plans are kind of in flux right now.
Well, why? Well, why, because of me? Kitty, everyone needs time to process their own reactions.
Just look at Robert and me.
First we're gonna kill each other and then we're having tea together in the middle of the night, which we could do in Boston.
We could have our own little Boston Tea Party.
All right.
All right, you know what? Sure.
We'll see.
We'll see.
Just Thank you.
You're not going to believe who wants to meet me for lunch.
Dennis York.
Tell me you hung up on him.
No, I told him I'd meet him at McDonnelly's at one.
Better to keep your enemies close.
Good idea.
Saul.
I didn't realize you'd be joining us.
All right.
What are you drinking? Nothing, thank you.
I don't have much time.
- Holly's not coming? - No, you just get me.
What do you want? I want those five years I spent in prison back.
But I'll settle for a good investment.
I still know one when I see one.
Yeah, well, even if William screwed you, he's gone, Dennis.
Yeah, but his company is still alive and kicking.
Where do you think he got the idea to start one in the first place? Are you suggesting that Ojai was your idea? - I'm not suggesting.
- Whatever proprietary claims you think you have on Ojai ran out a long time ago.
Then you won't mind a little healthy competition? Keep away from the company.
And stay away from my family.
See you around, Saul.
- Hey.
- Hey.
What are you doing home? I finished my royal duties and I took the afternoon off.
Okay, so you went to my mother's in the middle of the night and now you're home in the middle of the day? Who are you and what have you done with my husband? Let's take Evan to the zoo.
Wow, cancer has done wonders for you.
It's not the cancer.
I know you think it is.
I am here because there's nowhere else I'd rather be.
Okay.
I've made a decision.
I'm gonna do R-CHOP.
- Okay.
- I've been looking at these websites, I've spoken with a couple of other doctors, and they all agree that the prognosis is actually better in younger patients.
And they all stress the importance of a support system.
- I'm with you.
- Well, good.
Good, because I also think that we should stay at my mother's during my treatments.
- At your mother's? - Yeah, my mother's.
I know, I know.
But you're not gonna be able to have every afternoon off.
And this way we'll know that Evan is taken care of.
- And we'll definitely have our meals.
- Okay.
Really? Are you sure? Look, if this is what you wanna do, then this is what we are gonna do.
Period.
Cancer isn't some magical reset button and I just wanna make sure that we're still working on our marriage.
Whether you're sick or not.
I remember when you had your heart attack and you didn't let it define you.
I didn't understand it then, but I understand it now, and I am not gonna let this define me.
- Edwaldo? - Yeah, yeah.
He's the You know, he's the major duomo gorilla at the zoo.
But they were setting up for this wedding.
And they have the most incredible site right by the lions.
Well, actually that's why we're here.
Yeah, we were thinking about, you know, the wedding and we were just thinking about postponing it a little bit.
You know, until it's a good time.
Look, you know Look, I know why you guys are doing this and the thing is, that it is a really good time.
I need something to look forward to.
I mean, we all do.
I mean, think about it, if Mom doesn't have flowers and caterers to obsess over, - she's going to start obsessing about me.
- We want you to able to enjoy yourself.
Why the hell wouldn't I be able to enjoy it? Come on, if you guys wanna do something for me, you won't postpone.
You'll have showers and bachelor parties.
And you'll let me help you register.
I just can't think that life is gonna stop now.
- I mean, does that make any sense? - Yeah, yeah.
- It's like the, you know, that camping trip.
- Yeah, remember? And guess what.
- I was fine.
- Yes, her appendix burst.
And it was like Wednesday you got your appendectomy, but Sunday you were, like, fine, pitching a tent and, you know, spearing fish.
Yeah, right.
So no more "in flux.
" Okay? But this, it's under one condition.
Kitty, I would really love for you to be my matron of honor.
- Rebecca - I was gonna ask you anyway.
I was.
When you asked me to be your bridesmaid, it made me feel like your sister.
And I don't have a sister.
So Well, yes.
I mean, of course.
I mean, yes.
Yeah? Thank you.
- All right, the wedding back on? - Yes.
So tell them that this is the most incredible place to get married.
- Where? - The zoo.
Well, Justin will fit right in.
Come on, let's eat.
Wow, if that's the pizza guy, I'm joining politics.
- Nora.
Hi.
- I don't have to stay.
- Mom.
- I just thought I'd swing by and bring last night's leftovers.
Please tell me that that is the turkey meat loaf.
It's the turkey meat loaf, and the mashed potatoes, and creamed spinach.
And I stopped by, I got a cheesecake.
See, that's why we're gonna stay with her.
- Wait, Robert too? - We're like two peas in a pod.
Wait, I can't tell.
Are they kidding? No, no, no.
They've already had, like, these nighttime tea parties.
Hi.
We were just in your incredibly remote neighborhood.
- Carrying a four-course meal.
- So we thought we'd stop by.
- That's how we roll.
- Did you rehearse that? - Yeah, a little bit.
- Yeah.
Hi.
I can't believe this.
I can't believe you're here.
- Wow, well, thank you.
- Whoa, hold the door! - Saul! - Wow, it's a party.
Oh, I'm so glad I brought a whole case.
- Was that you on the road behind us? - Was it me? Who else is gonna shine their brights on you? You guys should have communicated! You should have carpooled.
Is this too much for you? All of us here like this? No.
No, no.
This is great.
I'm very happy.
Let's eat.
Yes, come outside.
Come on, everybody outside.
Really? I hope that our wedding is this easy to cater.
Oh, the best thing about planning a wedding is all the tastings.
- Tastings? - Yeah.
- My husband is the best chef in town.
- Oh, that's why you came today.
You're auditioning for the job.
- Scotty, we would love for you to do it.
- Yeah, we didn't want to assume No, assume away.
I would love to.
I'm warning you now, he's not cheap.
- Are you all right? - Oh, yeah.
Yeah, I'm just I'm happy.
Oh, I'll get it.
I'll get it, I'll get it, I'll get it.
What's with the traffic jam in your driveway? - Sarah.
- Oh, Kitty.
I'm so happy you're here.
