Why is he paying you back? Is he Did he lose a bet or something? No, no, he always buys lunch.
Always? That doesn't seem fair to him.
Well, he makes more money, so he usually, you know, pays for the incidentals.

It's a big deal.
Okay, well I know they love you there, so I'm sure that it's That doesn't Babe, we could lose this client.

Is there any chance that you could drop off Max? You told Amber? Yeah, I did.
I needed to let her know there was something going on 'cause I was asking her to It's fine.
I'm glad that you did.
You know, I think we need to tell people.
It's probably time.
All right.
We have to tell Haddie.
Yep.
She's just so happy there, you know? Yeah.
Mm? Hmm? Are you awake? - Hmm? - What time is it? - Are you up? - Yeah.
You're up.
We're both up.
You were poking me.
I think we should go jogging, don't you think? - Jogging? Why? - I don't know.
I just feel like, you know, we're the people who should be the athletic People, you know? Let's go jogging.
Oops.
You wanna go right now? Yeah, let's go.
Isn't this great? Still kind of waking up.
Come on.
We never jogged before, and then suddenly, we jog.
We're, like, a jogging couple.
It's the best.
Yeah.
I love us.
We have the best relationship.
Uhhuh.
What? - What? - What what do you want? You're pacing and staring.
No, I'm n I wa I wasn't staring.
I'm not pacing.
Dude, you were staring right at me I just entered a room.
Well, if you want something, spit it out, 'cause I've got to finish this, 'cause I've got to get out of here early today.
Okay.
What? What do you want? Okay, uh, well, I was, you know, I was just walking down the hallway, and I was thinking, you know, we're doing pretty good.
Yeah, we're doing all right.
I mean, we've only been at it for a year, and we already have a few employees.
We got a little extra cheddar in the bank account.
That's nice.
Yeah, a little.
- Nice little nest egg.
- I wouldn't call it a nest egg.
Mm, it's pretty robust by my, uh Cros, what do you want? Get to the point.
What do you want? I thought maybe we could chat about my salary.
Crosby, I-I can't right now, okay? What do you mean you can't? I want to talk about my salary.
- I know that.
I can't - When we started this, I took a pretty big cut and So did I - it wasn't as brutal as mine.
- No, it was the same.
The same amount of brutalness.
We each agreed to take a 25% cut in the salaries that we had at the time.
Okay, we're not doing that well.
Yeah, but that ended up putting you at almost twice as much as me.
No, not at twice as much.
That's why I said "almost.
" Did you hear that part? Crosby, we agreed each to take 25% less than we'd been making to make this business work.
- Yeah, I remember.
- Okay? That's what we agreed was fair.
And at that time at that time, it was fair.
But now I don't think it's fair.
Crosby, I just told you, I have to get out of here early, okay? I got a lot on my plate, so just ask me later.
Let me finish this.
I'm not gonna ask you later.
I didn't want to ask you now.
That was not fun.
I don't want to have to do this all over again.
All right, I'll tell you what.
Let's just wait until the end of the year when we have a more comprehensive view - the end of the year? - Yeah.
- That's when you w okay.
- The end of the year.
That's when I want to talk about that, okay? Great, great.
Maybe at my retirement party, we can discuss increasing my s hey, guys.

Wow, this is a beautiful office.
Congratulations on all your success.
Well, rumor has it you're next in line for partner over at Dengraf.
- Well - That's the word on the street.
- Yeah.
Thank you.
- So So I don't know if you've had a chance to go through all the paperwork yet.
Julia, I know that you filed your answers to the request for admissions late.
- Exactly.
- Major screw-up.
Did some first-year associate screw it up? Nope, it was all me.
Oh.
Yes, and I was wondering if there was any way that you could look the other way on this.
Julia Listen, all you'd have to do is say that you agreed to extend the deadline.
We can file a letter with the court.
You're asking me to look the other way and possibly cost my client hundreds of thousands of dollars? Yes, that is That is what I'm asking.
Okay.
So I adopted a nine-year-old boy.
And it has not been going smoothly, and I have not been focused at work.
I'm Begging you.
One sec.
Hey.
Hey.
May I come in? What is it, the sprinklers are down again or what? No, no, sprinkler system's working great.
Man, things are going off right on schedule.
Uh, no, you just haven't been to the vet center for a few days, Ryan.
You miss me? I guess, yeah.
Well, listen, as much as I would love to hear more stories about foxholes and 'nam, I'm trying to live my life.
Yeah.
Well, you didn't show up for your job interview, right? Oh, so that's why you're here.
I just know that it's hard to get started again.
No, no, I okay, you want to know the reason why I'm not going back to the vet center? Because I'm sick of people looking at me like I'm a veteran.
Like there's something wrong with me, like it's broken or something.
I know.
I don't want to be a veteran.
I'm just Ryan.
And the reason I didn't go to the crappy job interview is because the job sucked.
Well, you've got to start somewhere, son.
Okay, save it for someone who cares.
Please, don't come back here, Zeek.
Hello.
- Hi, dad.
- Hey.
How you doing? Everything all right? - Mm-hmm.
- Haddie Yeah, I can't really stop thinking about mom.
Okay, well, that's that's normal under these circumstances.
We just want you to stay positive and be strong, okay? Yeah, I-I'm, like, kind of having a hard time focusing, like I should be doing something.
Look, Haddie, we just we just don't want you to worry.
You've got to focus on your schoolwork, okay? We're we're taking care of everything.
You just don't worry.
Yeah.
I don't have any information, and I'm really far away, and I don't know what's going on.
You know what, everything's gonna be all right.
Don't worry, and just focus on your books, okay? Give yourself a little bit of Stop, what? - Huh? - What did you say? Focus on school? Just focus on school.
Don't be dad, it's, like, hard.
I'm just really far away from home.
I don't know what's going on, like, you didn't tell me any information.
Hello? Can you treat me like an adult? Okay.
Your mother's tumor is 1.
6 centimeters, okay? So they're gonna be able to do a lumpectomy.
They're gonna be able to get the tumor out without having to do a mastectomy, so that's good.
And and while they're doing the lumpectomy, they're gonna do a biopsy of two lymph nodes because that's how cancer usually spreads, so they're going to be able to tell whether your mother needs any further treatment, chemotherapy or radiation, anything like that.
Okay? So she might need chemo? I'm not saying that.
She's gonna be all right.
But that's the truth.
That's as much as I know.
That's where we're at.
And I promise you I will keep you up-to-date.
I don't want you in the dark.
Okay.
How are you? You know, I'm all right.
I'm hanging in there.
Yep.
It's scary, but I'm okay.
Yep.
So You've got to know that your mother is So strong, and she's so positive, and she is doing everything she can to get healthy.
And the best thing that you can do for your mom right now, Haddie, is just you just focus on school.
And you do well, and you make her proud, okay? Can you do that for me? Yeah.
Okay, good.
Listen, I've got to get back to work here, but I love you, okay? Mmhmm.
Love you too.
Bye.
And you understand what all that means? Yeah, mom's got cancer.
- Okay.
- But I'm gonna be okay.
- She's gonna be fine.
- Okay.
But she's gonna have to go through some things, she's not gonna have.
As much time for you, she's gonna need to rest, she's going to need to go to doctor's appointments.
So you're just gonna have to be a little more grown up.
Okay.
Do you have any questions, buddy? Do you want to ask me anything or? Can I watch TV now? I have 30 minutes of screen time banked from last night.
Sure.
Hmm.
Think he cares? Think he understands? Yeah.
Why are all these people coming to my game? They're not "these people," they're your family.
They're they're our family.
That's why they're coming.
Only grandma and grandpa came to my recital.
So not fair.
- Quit whining.
Such a baby.
- I'm not whining! They're coming to the game too.
- You're the one that's whining.
- You're just a baby.
Hey, don't call her that, okay? I might not even get in the game.
You're gonna get into the game.
I'm the worst player on the team.
- Oh, my God.
- You gave me two knives.
You need a knife.
There.
Mom, do I even have to go to this stupid game? - The fire alarm went off! - Mom.
Mom, mom, the fire alarm went off.
Mom! The eggs are burning.
Mom! Mom, I am talking to you.
Why are you not answering me? - Guys, what is going on? - Mom, the eggs are burning.

It's okay, it's okay.
What's going on? Just breathe here, okay? Just breathe.
Okay, all right, all right.
All right, just breathe.
- Just breathe.
- I can't do it.
It's too much, I can't - what can't you do? What? - I can't Well, it was good that you went to see him.
That was a good thing.
Mm.
Yeah, I mean, he only slammed the door in my face.
Well, at least he knew that there was someone who cared enough about him to check up on him.
You know, poor kid, he's probably confused.
He's certainly angry and, uh, you know, doesn't know where he belongs.
Yeah.
It was a long time before you came back to me.
Well, thank God I had someone to come back to.
Why are you staring at me? - Are you a grown-up? - Why do you ask? Well, my parents said I need to be more grown up.
So are you a grown-up? Well I guess so, yeah.
You don't dress like a grown-up.
No, I guess you're right, I don't.
And you're shorter than a lot of grown-ups.
That's so true.
So what makes you a grown-up? Well, uh, let's see, I have, um I have a job.
And, um, I have a car.
And I have to pay bills and just kind of do stuff on my own, I guess.
You're not married.
No, I'm not.
All of the adults I know are married.
So when are you getting married? Well I guess I'd have to meet the right person first.
My mom's got cancer.
- Do you want to talk about it? - No.
Okay.
How many are there? Give me two if you can.
Mmhmm.
Pretty good with the sticks, hmm.
Just gonna start with this Okay.

Hey, whatever you think you're doing here, whatever you think is going on here, you've got to stop, all right? I don't need your help.
Okay, I will tell you what I think is going on here.
I think you're sitting around in your crappy little apartment having your own little pity party going on in your head, and you're not spending enough time thinking about your future, Ryan York.
Did you just come here to analyze me? Is that why you're here? No.
I came here to invite you to a baseball game.

When I want to talk, we're gonna talk, all right? I'm doing more than half the work right now.

I'm wrong.
Monday morning, we'll fix your salary.
And I owe you an apology.
I'm sorry.
Sweetie What? - Mama, mama.

- I know.
- Okay.
Uh, excuse me, coach, can you put Victor in the game? - Yeah, what about Victor? - Guys I mean, every other kid is playing out there.
No, he's right, he someone should go talk to that guy.
- Come on, coach.
- Oh, my God, you fit right in.
- Here we go.
- Oh, this should be good.
Hey, hey, come on, Zeek.
Yeah, hey, coach, how you doing? - Zeek.
- Sir, what Zeek Braverman here, hi.
You can't be on the field during the game.
I know the rules of baseball.
I mean, come on.
I also know that my grandson has been benched the entire game.
There's only one out left, so I thought maybe we could have a chitchat.
It's too close to put him in.
This game's too close.
There'll be other games, Zeek.
It's a long season.
Well, if you don't put him in the game now, he may not show up for the other games, all right? I mean, I got 15 members of the Braverman family sitting right there, and most of them have played on this field at one time or another.
Hey, Adam, raise your hand.
Raise your hand, son.
He was the most valuable player in 1978.
He was one of the best shortstops you ever saw.
Had great hands, all right? And that kid right there, his name's Ryan York.
He's just back from Afghanistan.
He risked his life to make sure that we could play baseball on American soil.
We got a problem here? No, I'll tell you what the problem the prob look, is it really about winning the game, or is it about just putting the kids in and letting them participate and, you know, feeling like they belong and just having a damn good time! Would you just put the kid in the game? Uh, yeah, you wanna deal with that? - Victor, get your helmet on.
- All right! - All right! - Victor! Please, back in the stands, sir.
- I'm going.
- Victor! - Go, Victor! - Hey, Victor! Relax like we talked about.
You got this, buddy.
Easy, buddy.
Sock it, kiddo! You got this, man.
Victor! Oh, man.
That's all right.
That's okay, that's okay.
- Come on, Victor.
- Sock it, kiddo! Nice, easy swing, Vic.
That's all right.
You don't have to swing at every one, buddy.
You don't have to kill it, just meet the ball.
Okay, snap those wrists.
Just make contact.
Oh, mm Come dance with me Over murder and pain Yeah, yes, go! Go, go, go, go, go, go! Over heartache and shame Drop the bat! Drop the bat! I wanna see our bodies Burnin' like the old, big sun I wanna know No, keep going, keep going! Go, go, go, go! Go!

Where have you been? I was at my son's baseball game.
I'm sorry.
My phone was in my purse not this morning.
The last six months, Julia.
Um, if this is about the request for admissions, I spoke to opposing council, and it didn't work.
They filed a motion to deem, and the court's gonna grant it.
It's over.
Julia, what the hell happened to you? Where have you been? Your hours have been dismal, and now you miss a discovery deadline? Leon, I'm sorry.
I-I will make this up.
Do you have any idea what this is costing this firm? Client's threatening to walk.
This is a multi-million-dollar screw-up.
Two years ago, this wouldn't have happened.
A year ago, this wouldn't have happened.
This is rookie crap.
You're right.
I-I-I apologize.
What we're trying to say, Julia, is you were on a partner track.
I was? You need to tell us right now that this will never happen again, and you need to tell us that you want this job, that your focus is 100% on your clients.
Julia.
I don't think that it is.
I-I don't think that I am 100% committed.
Julia.
I thought that I could do it all, but I can't.
Not now, anyway.
Thank you for these last nine years, Leon.
I quit.
So right now, your batting average is 100%, but for some reason in baseball, they call it batting a thousand.
Now, but your slugging percentage is only .
333, but it's a lot better than mine still 'cause my batting average lifetime was .
147, but now I'm retired.
- Sweet.
- Mm-hmm.
So, uh, maybe we could have, like, a game of catch one day.
Yeah, why not? It'd be pretty cool.
What do you think? You can feel free to mix and match, you know.
We like those kind of wacky potions.
Okay.
I'm goin' straight orange on this, though.
All right, so I'm gonna take the fall for the concoction, okay.
Yes.
Exactly.
So what do you do, Amber? Uh, well, my uncles own a recording studio in the Haight, so I work there.
Cool.
So you were in Afghanistan, right? Yeah.
I'm back.
- Welcome back.
- Thanks.
- Ready? - Yeah, yeah.
Let's move in together.
- Really? - Yeah.
Well, what about, um, the plan, waiting for drew to graduate, and why you know, why wait? Let's do this thing.
Let's do this thing.
All right, yeah.
You think? - Yeah? - I like that idea a lot.
