Rookie Blue s04e09 Episode Script

I know you said a latte straight up, but I added a sprinkle of nutmeg.
It's festive.
I am nothing if not festive.
- It takes a brave girl to agree to a blind date.
- Mm-hmm.
Even if you are on the rebound.
Who told you that? Your mother.
My father's her boss, and I guess she just wanted to make sure I knew what I was getting into.
But when she showed me that picture of you Are you serious? It was a very flattering photograph.
What accent is that? I'm from Nottingham.
Did you live in the woods with a band of merry men? Are you asking me if I'm a homosexual? What were you doing in Nottingham? I was studying.
Doing my master's in medieval languages and literature.
That's very random.
How long were you in England for? - Two years.
- And before that? I grew up about 20 minutes from here.
Born and raised in Forest Hill.
Can we recap? You were only in England for two years? What what are you asking me? Do they have any alcohol here? I have a fully stocked bar in my flat.
Oh? We could leave right now.
Weston Let me just be clear here.
This date's not going very well for you.
But I'm gonna stay and enjoy this festive latte, and then I'm gonna go home.
Alone.
Because there's not enough alcohol in the world to get me in bed with you.
Can I keep your number in case you change your mind? I'm gonna go now.
Right now.
Yeah.
Two dates in two nights.
Superintendent mom must be getting desperate.
She just wants to make sure that I don't end up a lonely spinster.
Besides, it keeps me away from cheese puffs.
That one.
Uh, Andy and I might be going to The Penny tonight.
You could join us for a drink instead.
I think I'd rather be with Robin Hood again.
What is it with you? You've been avoiding Andy for weeks.
No, I'm not avoiding her.
I'm just simply moving on to a new chapter of my life.
Something you, my friend, should consider.
I don't know.
Getting back on that horse sounds a little exhausting.
You could make my brother the horse.
Gail, that's disgusting.
You're telling me.
Honey, I'm home! What?! - Hi! We missed you! - Hey.
It's so it's so good to see you guys.
The the the place it looks the same.
Yeah, it smells different.
Thank God.
Told you that smell was your fault.
Hi.
Thank you guys so much for letting us stay here.
We, um, promise to keep the mess to a minimum.
You're staying here? I mean you're staying here! You guys have four days off.
What are you gonna get up to? Hit the town, paint it red, rock out with your She gets a little excited first thing in the morning.
It's true.
I had an espresso this morning, so.
Just give us like ten minutes, and, uh, we'll take you guys all out for breakfast.
Wait, a aren't you missing something? Aah! the grand old duke of York he had 10,000 men he marched them up to the top of the hill and he marched them down again and when they were up, they were up when they were down, they were down and when they were only halfway up they were neither up nor down Whoa, the old "Duke of York" workout.
Haven't done that one in a while.
Yeah, well, you should try it.
It's killer on the quads.
How are you doing, buddy? Yeah? Chris and Denise just got in this morning, so I figured I'd help them get settled.
And you called me because Well, clearly I'm running out of songs.
Ah, I gathered.
And we haven't hung out in a while.
Okay, so I know her and I met you, but I haven't met this little guy.
What's his name? Baby Puppy.
Baby Puppy? That's a good name.
Very literal.
I like it.
Hey, do you think baby puppy's ever been to the moon? I think so.
Do you think he wants to go back? 'Cause I think I hear the rocket ship starting up.
Does he? Ooh! Whoa! Whoa! Hot hibiscus flamingo fiesta or mango madness What do you think? I think it looks like Miami threw up on your wall.
Listen have you ever been to South Beach? I mean, everywhere you look, there are bright, vibrant colors.
And those colors put me in a great mood.
Well, there are other ways.
Okay.
I think I think you should go with the pink.
You can start right now.
Mm.
I'd love to, but I'm on shift in an hour.
That's okay.
Frank's still on his honeymoon.
So? So, that means Oliver's acting Sergeant.
Means we can be a little late.
- Okay, great.
- Okay.
Yeah.
Let's do it.
Can't wait.
I've always wanted to hang out in a hot pink bedroom.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
Because looks good on you.
Yeah.
Pink is your color.
You sure you want to do this? No.
No.
I don't.
I don't.
No.
I don't.
I don't know about you, but Baby Puppy is looking hungry.
I'm thinking Scottish food? Huh? I know a cute little drive-through.
It's just around the corner.
You grab him.
What? Just great.
You know? Park, Christian This.
Um y you know what you said to me on the night of the wedding.
I've been doing a lot of thinking about it.
Like, I really have.
And, uh okay, look.
Here's the problem.
First of all, there's Gail.
And she's my friend.
Or something.
And you guys just broke up.
You know, that's really messy.
"B," uh, we work together, and I think we both know that that just leads to trouble every single time.
And three I think everybody's gonna think it started undercover.
And it didn't, but I think it's gonna be really weird to Clyde! Please, somebody! Hang on.
Clyde.
It's okay, bud.
Hi, can we please get an ambulance to Sorauren Park? Ma'am! Ma'am, can you tell me what happened? Clyde, wake up! Wake up! Ma'am, I need you to stand back for me, all right? He's probably about 50 years old.
I I don't know I can't really see him from here.
I need you to stand back for me, okay? - Oh, not my Clyde.
- I'm a police officer.
You know, I realize that's important.
I just I I don't know.
I'm not near him.
I just I just need you to stand back for me.
Okay.
Okay, okay.
Just, um Okay, Christian? I'm gonna be right back.
Okay, bud? Just hang tight.
Okay, ma'am.
Got to give him some space, okay? Please.
I need you to calm down.
I need you to talk to dispatch and answer the questions, okay? It's gonna be okay.
Okay.
Hello.
I I'm his wife.
Okay, I got to go back.
No.
No medication.
He h he's 56.
Christian?! - Did you notice anyone near the truck? - No.
Anyone in the park? Anyone pay special attention to Christian? No.
I mean, there were parents with their kids, but we didn't talk to anyone.
Okay.
Price? Come here.
I want you to notify the transit authority, get bolos out I need a full description of Christian.
- Got it.
- Okay.
McNally? Yeah, um, he's wearing some blue jeans.
He has a green sweater, and, uh, the jacket that he's wearing is orange, silver, and white it's in stripes.
Um the boots that he's wearing, they're - Navy.
- They're Navy blue.
Go.
Cruz.
Peck.
Those are possible witnesses up there.
I want you to start interviewing them, okay? Anything stands out, you tell me right away.
No.
You guys, we've already knocked on all the doors.
No, McNally No! They don't know anything.
They didn't see anything.
Andy! Andy.
- We need to expand the search.
- Andy, look at me.
I know that you want to help, but right now you two are witnesses, which means, before you help us with this search, we need to take your statements.
Traci's gonna take you down to the station.
- Collins, McNally.
With me.
- Hold on.
Sammy! Maybe you should let Traci take their statements.
A child went missing while in the care of two officers that I trained? They're coming with me.
Go.
How could you let this happen? - Denise.
- You left him.
I know.
It was just for a minute.
I thought he would be okay.
I'm sorry.
- What's wrong with you? - Denise, please.
What are you even doing here? And you you were supposed to look after him, not lock him in the truck and leave him by himself! Chris.
Collins, McNally, let's go.
I'm sorry.
We'll find him.
I swear.
We're gonna find him.
All right? Everybody is on it.
We're going to find him.
But we need to go back to the station, talk through everything that happened today, okay? Let's go to the station.
Dov, they're gonna try and shut me in some room and lock me out of this whole thing.
You got to be my guy on the ground today, okay? Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Somebody tell me something.
I got some hair on the car seat, probably the victim's.
And some transfer on the upholstery.
- Okay.
Blood? - Yeah.
One swipe.
Well, it could be Christian's.
We can't say for sure.
Okay, Peck, will you run that down to the lab? Hopefully it's our abductor's, and he's in the system.
All right, I'll keep you posted.
All right.
Okay, so, her husband collapsed, Nick ran over, and then? Nick was doing CPR on the guy.
But his wife kept getting in the way, and so I put her on the phone with dispatch, - and I ran back to the truck.
- Right back to the truck.
Okay, so, why'd you go to the park? What do you mean? Why were you and Collins at the park? Why are you making this personal? What? Uh, McNally, I need to know if this was premeditated or a crime of opportunity, okay? So, did you and Collins plan to go to the park, or did you just end up there? I called Chris this morning, and I said I would take Christian.
You know, so him and Denise could get settled.
Then I called Nick, and I invited him to the park with us.
Okay, good.
That's everything.
Uh, you can suit up and, uh, answer the phones.
What? No.
I should be out there looking for Christian, not answering tip lines.
- Collins! - Sam.
No, it's it's better.
Hey.
The guy from the park, he's gonna be okay.
His wife called to say thanks.
She's got your phone, but we'll we'll get it later.
Okay, thank you.
Andy.
This isn't your fault.
I have to go get my uniform on.
She feels bad enough without you making it worse.
Are you telling me how to do my job? No, sir.
Okay.
Good.
So, mind your own business.
She's my partner.
She is my business.
Not right now.
Take a seat.
Did you guys see anything unusual? I come to this park every day with my kids, so I really pay attention to who's coming and going.
Did you notice anything unusual today? Okay, well, I I didn't see him today, but there's this guy who hangs out here all the time, and it's weird.
Why is it weird? He doesn't have any kids.
Or a dog.
He just sits in his van and watches.
He watched the kids? You got a name? No, but I do have the plate number.
Um I took a picture the last time I saw him here.
He drives a white van.
Thanks.
I'm gonna go run the plate.
Thank you.
Yeah.
Anything? Just a bunch of parents worried that we're not doing enough to keep their kids safe, so Let's keep going.
All right, you're cleared for duty.
Get on the front desk and handle any walk-in tips.
Swarek.
Hey, I got a plate for a suspicious vehicle seen around the park on numerous occasions.
Good.
Who owns it? Mm, it's registered to a business Excellent.
I'll meet you there.
What color was his hair? Okay, could you describe him one more time? Denise is okay.
She just needed to lie down.
The Amber alert's out there.
Lots of tips are coming in already, and we're doing everything we can.
Don't give me the victim speech.
Actually tell me what's going on.
I'm a cop.
Treat me like one.
What if it was Leo? We're following up on a lead.
A suspect? - We don't know yet.
- Who is it? It might be nothing, Chris.
Traci, do not keep me in the dark on this.
My son is out there.
Which is exactly why you're in here.
Because if Leo was missing if Leo was missing, I'd be out there, I'd be in a panic trying to help, but getting in the way and slowing everything down.
Chris, there isn't anything you can do that we aren't already doing.
What did the man look like? Okay, how old is the boy? When was this? Yesterday? Ma'am, the boy that we're looking for actually disappeared three hours ago.
No, I understand that, but it just what you're describing sounds like a father hanging out with his son.
Thank you for calling.
Bye.
How's it going? I mean, none of those people are calling in with anything that's gonna help us find Christian.
They're just trying to help.
I know they are, but I just wish I could do more.
I'm sure Diaz feels the same.
So we got to show him it's not a lost cause.
Any one of these tips could bring Christian home.
I know you're right.
You're right.
Okay.
Help me out.
Yes.
All right, is this in regard to the missing - Yes, that's great.
- So, what time was that? So, Mr.
Ford? Oh, please.
Call me Mr.
Biscuit.
All the kids do.
That's not gonna happen.
All right, what do you want? Where were you two hours ago? I was here.
I spend half my life in this shop.
And who drives the white van registered to your company? My little brother, Kevin.
He uses it to make deliveries.
Kevin Ford? Date of birth? December 7, 1974.
Hey.
I need a 1029 on a Kevin Ford.
Okay, cut the crap, Detective.
I I'm not answering any more questions till you tell me what's going on.
Is your brother working today? I don't know.
Maybe you should, uh, ask my lawyer.
Thanks for your time, Mr.
Ford.
Yeah.
Okay.
What is it? Three years ago, Kevin Ford was questioned in the disappearance of a 4-year-old boy.
He lives in this neighborhood.
Sam, they never found the boy.
Woman on P.
A.
Detective McFadden, please call Guns and Gangs at extension 29.
Hey.
Babe.
Just be careful.
It's it's hot.
This is why we moved to Timmins.
Our little boy is out there with some stranger, scared out of his mind.
This this could have happened anywhere.
But it didn't.
Babe.
Hey.
Have either of you met or heard of a guy named Kevin Ford? I've never heard that name before.
Who is he? Does he have Christian? All I can tell you is we're waiting for a warrant.
You're gonna pick up Ford at the warehouse.
I'll send Epstein with Price and a couple of uniforms to search his house, unless you want to second-guess me on that one, too.
Dov.
Epstein, we got to move.
Is that a warrant? - Arrest and search.
- You got to let me come with you.
I can't.
I'm dying in here! If the guy we're going after took Christian, I'll let you kill him with your bare hands after we get him back.
Thanks so much for doing this.
Kid goes missing, it's pretty much top of the pile.
So, how long until we know if the DNA's in the system? Couple hours, maybe more.
And you you can't rush it? Make it go faster? Sure, I'll just rush the polymerase chain reaction.
Not like it's important.
Maybe you could chip in.
How are you at identifying short tandem repeats? You could have just said "no.
" I did find something interesting.
The typing came back inconsistent.
In English.
The blood sample you brought in, it contained two different types of blood.
One was "A" type, the other "O" negative.
There were two abductors? Or one of the sample's the kid's.
I'm checking it against Christian's hair and saliva from his stuffed animal.
I got to make a call.
Oliver, it's Peck.
Oliver said there might be two of them, so stay sharp.
- Is, uh, Kevin Ford here? - Oh, officers.
Yeah, my brother told me you were looking for me.
Is there something I can do to help? What the hell?! - Where's Christian? - Who? Nothing in the van.
Just tell me what's going on.
Our platoon is tearing your house apart right now, Kevin.
Where is he? I don't know what you're talking about.
Did they find Christian? We searched his house, his van.
We searched the warehouse.
Nothing.
Hey.
It's okay.
It's okay.
It's okay.
We're getting closer.
We're getting closer, okay? Okay, I don't I don't want to be difficult, but where's my lawyer? Oh, they're on their way.
They'll be here soon.
Who's this? That is Christian Murphy.
This is Christian.
This is the the boy you're looking for.
Yeah, he was at Sorauren Park today.
Do you know that park? Yeah, I I drive by it on the way to work.
I I've never seen this kid before.
You're sure? Yeah, yeah, I'm sure.
I'm pretty good with faces.
Okay.
You spend a lot of time around children, right? Watching them, hanging out with them.
My brother and I run a business a business we inherited.
We make enough to get by kids leave with smiles on their faces.
Win/win there's nothing wrong with that.
Except if you're Marcus Hartley, right? He came to your store three years ago, and then he disappeared.
That's not exactly a win/win.
No.
That's a tragedy.
So, what? You think the same person took Christian? Well, why don't you tell us, Kevin? Is that what you do? Is that your "thing"? You meet these kids at the store, you get to know them, then you start hanging out at the park, and all of a sudden, you're a familiar face.
I mean, it's pretty easy to take it one step further.
Shut up.
Shut up! Maybe you even bring a partner along! - Huh? - You make me sick! Do I?! I'm gonna ask you one more time! Where's Christian? I would really like to help you, officer but now it's my turn.
Where the hell's my lawyer? Uh, she's on her way.
She'll be here in a few minutes.
- Hey.
- Hey.
What's up? We got a call on the tip line.
Guy just hauled a screaming toddler out of a movie theater at Dundas Square.
The boy matched Christian's description, but they disappeared before security could grab them.
- All right, when was that? - Ten minutes ago? Okay, did security get a visual? Yeah, they're e-mailing me right now.
Okay, you got to forward that to Nash.
Let's go.
Nash, open your e-mail.
McNally's sending you a file.
I'll have it up in a second.
Okay.
What's going on? We have a surveillance photo of someone who might be our suspect.
It's downloading.
That's Christian.
Do you know who this guy is? Oh, my God.
That's that's Gene Mackenzie.
He was Christian's soccer coach in Timmons.
Woman on P.
A.
Detective Wilkins, please pick up line 1.
What is Gene doing here? Right now we need to focus on finding him, okay? So, what else can you two tell me about him? He's 32.
33, maybe.
He he lives in Timmons.
I don't know what else.
Should have been able to see it.
You know, he used to dote on Christian give him all sorts of special attention? Chris, don't do this to yourself.
There's no way you could have known.
No, no, no, no, no.
He's a predator, and I'm a police officer.
I should've been able to tell.
Stop it.
My son's missing, and I can't even look for him! We got to clean this up.
There's a first aid kit in the lounge.
You got to find him, Trace.
- I'm sorry.
- Come on.
It's okay.
PDU is on line 1 for Detective Wilkins.
Detective Wilkins This little witch hunt of yours is over.
I know you have surveillance photos of the abductor.
And how do you know that? I get paid to know.
Check the photos.
I'm not on them.
Does the name Gene Mackenzie mean anything to you? No, Detective, it doesn't.
- Does it mean anything to you? - Mr.
Ford.
Why does a guy with no kids have a swing set in his backyard? Wow.
That's your case against me? It was there when I bought the house.
Mr.
Ford, please.
Let me handle this.
Detective, you really want to drag this out? I have places to be.
We haven't located the kid yet, so no one's going anywhere.
Oliver wants to see everyone in parade right away.
Epstein, we're in the middle of an interview.
It's not a request.
We have a visual I.
D.
of our abductor.
This is Gene Mackenzie.
He's in our system for an aggravated assault back in '95.
He's Christian's soccer coach back in Timmons.
Also, a swimming instructor and a little-league coach there.
Why wouldn't he grab Christian in Timmons? I mean, why follow him here? Maybe to distance himself as a suspect.
We don't know.
Well, is he working alone? We don't know.
What we do know is that Christian seems to be alive and well.
Where was the last visual confirmation? It was at the movie theater at Dundas Square.
Okay, we're gonna canvass the entire area.
Guys, we're looking for a green hatchback.
The license plate is Alpha-yankee-X-ray-lima 112.
Let's go find this boy.
Cruz.
You got to cut Ford loose.
What Oliver.
What? Look, Mackenzie might not be working alone.
Ford's van was seen near the playground numerous times, okay? Plus, he's got ties to an unsolved child-abduction case.
I mean, we let him go, we're making a mistake.
Your call.
Cut him loose.
What? Yes, sir.
All right.
What the "What the" what? Holly, "what the" what? What? I don't want to play "who's on first?" Just tell me what's going on.
What does this mean? Background check on Mackenzie identified two out-of-town addresses.
He has an aunt in Essex and a grandfather in Kingsville.
We've notified local police in both jurisdictions.
And I got a cellphone number, but he's not answering.
Guys, I have something.
We pulled two DNA samples from the crime scene.
One of them was Gene Mackenzie's, and the other one wasn't in the system, but it matches the hair we found on the car seat.
So it's Christian's? The two samples are a genetic match.
Gene Mackenzie is Christian's father.
Hey.
Where's Chris? I don't know.
He's getting me some water.
What is this? DNA analysis for gene and for Christian.
Oh, God.
That's why Gene took him, isn't it? I didn't know.
You have to tell Chris.
Please, Dov please You have to tell Chris he's not the father! Denise? No hits on the travel bolo.
Gene's probably laying low with Christian.
For now.
Yeah, the question is where? I need to talk to her.
Are you sure that's a good idea? No.
Okay.
Chris Chris, I didn't know until Dov showed me that piece of paper.
- You have to believe me.
- Look - Denise.
- If you knew what Gene was like when we were together.
Denise.
But I never thought he'd do something like Denise! Look, it's it's okay.
Okay? Whatever the DNA test says Christian is our son.
The only thing that matters now is bringing him home.
Okay.
So, what do we do? Where's your phone? We're gonna call Gene.
You're gonna tell him you're sorry.
You're gonna tell him you know what he did.
But you haven't told anyone he has Christian.
What? You're gonna tell him you two can work this out together.
What if he doesn't believe me? He will.
Because he wants to.
Is this what it takes to get your attention? I know you have Christian, but we can clear this up.
No one else needs to know.
He's my son.
You can't keep him from me.
You can't let another man pretend to be his father! I'm his father! It's okay, buddy.
It's okay.
Don't don't cry.
Come on.
Let me talk to Christian.
I want to go home! Gene! He's fine.
Then I'll come meet you.
No.
I won't tell Chris.
I won't tell anyone.
We can clear this up, Gene, just the two of us.
Please, just tell me where you are.
He's upset, Gene.
He needs his mom.
I'm begging you.
Please? If you love Christian if you love your son, you'll let me see him.
Say it again.
Say he's my son.
He's your son, Gene.
We're we're, uh, we're at the Play Palace.
I've been trying to calm him down.
Come on, buddy.
I got I got to go.
That was good.
You did good.
Security's been notified, and they'll call us when they get a visual confirmation! Dov.
Price, you're with me.
Let's go.
Fan out.
Everybody cover an exit.
If this guy runs, I want him to run into one of you.
Epstein, you're with me.
Diaz? I know.
I'll stay here.
Yeah, a little higher.
Good! Oh! Oh! Almost! Almost! Got it! Yeah! Okay, one more.
One more.
Good boy! I've got him in the northeast corner.
Look how many tickets we're getting, buddy.
Nice! Look at this.
Look at how many tickets we got.
Gene Mackenzie.
There's nowhere to go.
Where's Denise? She's not coming.
Come on, Gene.
This is my son.
I know.
So let's not do this in front of him.
If you ever come near my family again - He's not your family! - Let go of my son.
He's not your family! Hey, buddy.
Okay.
- Buddy.
- Mr.
Mackenzie, I need you turn around, all right? Put your hands on the machine.
- Hey.
- He's fine.
Put your hands on the machine.
- Sorry hey! - He's clean.
Gene Mackenzie, you're under arrest for child abduction.
We're gonna take you into the station, and you're gonna talk to a detective.
We were together for a few months right after Diaz dumped her.
Took me a while to figure out the timing before I realized that Christian was mine.
I mean He looks just like I did at that age.
I could show you baby pictures.
Why didn't you get a paternity test? Denise wouldn't go for it.
And I'd never get custody anyway.
Because of your record.
Because I hit her.
Once.
When we were together.
But, look, I haven't been in any trouble since then.
You know, I I work really hard.
I volunteer.
I mean, she signed Christian up for soccer so I could see him once a week.
Well, it sounds like you had an agreement regarding custody.
We did, but then Diaz shows up, and that's it.
She pulls Christian out of soccer.
She won't let me see him anymore.
She won't answer my phone calls.
She's pretending like I don't exist.
So, this morning, I drove over there.
I was just gonna lay it all out, tell Diaz the truth.
They were pulling out of the driveway.
So you followed them.
A few hours later, I'm sitting there watching my son in some park with people I've never seen before.
I couldn't handle it.
She never even gave me a chance to be his dad.
Hey.
Uh, do you know if Chris is still around? Uh, he and Denise took Christian back to the apartment.
Uh, have you seen Dov? I don't really keep tabs on your boyfriend.
Okay, well, do you know if he's gone home? Because Chloe, see this? I have a lot of forensic blah-blah-blah that I have to add to my notes.
I have to be somewhere in an hour, so if you don't mind, can you just go be somewhere else, please? Yeah, okay.
Well, when you do go home, do you think you could just drop this off for me? Do I look like a fedex box to you, Chloe? The old one's gonna be in evidence for a while, so Where did you get that? I went by Emerson Toys, 'cause I thought it might help.
You know, after a day like Christian's had today, so anyways, um, could you just - Yeah, sure - Give that to Chris? Okay.
Thanks.
Hey.
Yeah? You're very wide open and bright-eyed.
It's kind of like you belong in "The sound of music.
" What that means, Chloe, is that you're not afraid to be yourself, and it drives me crazy.
Because I I get it, Gail.
Apology accepted.
Oh, yeah, um, actually, I'm not apologizing.
Yes, you are.
Have a good night, Gail.
Tough day? You should see the other guy.
Yeah.
Look, Oliver, about this morning, I You know, we don't have to do this, Sam.
I trained them.
Okay.
Actually, I trained them, too, so don't step on my toes when we're around them.
Cool? You're gonna look good in a white shirt one day.
That's what happens when I'm in charge.
Hey, everybody was exactly where they needed to be to get the job done.
That's what happens when you're in charge.
See you tomorrow.
See you, brother.
Is it Leo? Is that the reason that you won't date my brother? I'm exhausted, Gail.
Can we talk about this tomorrow? Or never? No, it's just I'm trying to say that I get it.
I mean, things must be a hell of a lot more complicated when you have a kid.
I like Steve.
But I just figured out how to make my life work again.
I can't throw dating into the mix.
Yeah, but I'm going on a different date every night, making you pick out my stupid outfits.
Which I really don't mind.
Besides, everyone deserves to be happy, Gail.
Even you.
Hey.
What are you doing tonight? Do you think Chris is gonna be okay? I don't know.
I don't think he knows.
And what do you do when a bomb like that gets dropped on your life, you know? Yeah, I'm glad I told Frank about us.
I want us to always be honest with each other about everything.
Me too.
Did he finally fall asleep? Chris Thank you for today.
You were amazing.
Now that Christian's safe, we can we can go home and Put all this behind us.
I left my apartment my job and my friends because of you.
Well, we can we can move back.
We can do whatever you want as long as we're a family.
But we're not a family.
And Christian How could you let me think that I was his dad? How c how could you give him to me and know he wasn't mine? Well, I didn't know for sure.
Well, you should have made sure before you showed up here and you ruined my life.
- I wanted him to be yours! - That is n that's not good enough.
Everything that happened today, in my heart, he still feels like my son.
I look at him, and I see my son.
Mine! What am I supposed to do now? I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry, Chris.
Hey.
What's going on? I just wanted to check in on you and make sure you're all right.
Well I've had better days.
So have you.
Want to come in? For a drink or something? I also wanted to tell you I think you're right.
About what? About us.
You're right about all the problems.
I did just break up with Gail.
We work together.
You and me, you know, we're friends.
Don't want to jeopardize that.
Nope.
All that's true.
The thing is, I don't care.
You're worth it.
You're the most amazing person I've ever met.
And the fact that you've thought this through means I've got a fighting chance.
So I'll wait.
However long that takes.
Also, I forgot to give you this.
I, uh I picked it up at the hospital.
- Thank you.
- Probably should have started with that, 'cause now it's super awkward.
Come on.
It's cathartic.
Especially after a day like today.
I don't really, like, do sports.
It's not gonna kill you to try something new.
Sorry.
Actually, it might kill you.
I'm sorry.
I feel so humiliated.
I told you, I don't like sports! And I'm leaving.
Hey, it's me.
I'm leaving now.
I'll, uh, I'll see you soon.
It's it's fine.
Don't worry about it.
It's fine.
Oh, my God.
I don't care.
