I keep wondering what my dad
is thinking, watching this.
When people were protesting
for gay marriage,
he said, "People just can't

It's probably why I still

My mom went back to him.
- When?
- Couple months ago.
COVID hit, and she moved back in.
Why didn't you tell me before?
Because I've been trying really
hard not to think about it.
But now that you're about
to go into lockdown,

I-I panicked, and I
And I ran for the fire escape.

out of here without
a rotation of your spine, okay?
This injury could change your life.
These paramedics can save it.

Yeah, but less because I was
scared he'd yell at me.
That was gonna happen
no matter what I did.
I guess it just felt private?
- Okay.
- I mean, I'd never been
in a relationship with a woman
- Okay.
- So, I figured

about every single guy I slept with,
why should I tell them about the women?
Fair enough.

We have to leave in like 10 minutes.
[SIGHS] You would think
that seeing vaginas
ripped open by a baby's head
would make me
less interested in sex with women,
but, oddly, it hasn't.
Mm.
I imagine it has made
you less interested
in giving birth, though.
No, not really.
Wait, what?
I still want to have a baby.
Oh.
Yeah.
Wait, but you
But you don't want to get married?
[CHUCKLING] What?
I mean, before, you said
you don't want to get married.
But you do want to have kids?
Okay, you know the story of my parents.
And look at your parents, bambina.
The The marriage
has literally trapped your mom
in a house with her abuser.
Why would you want that?
I mean, but we're not my parents.
I know, and I'm trying really hard
not to be mine, either.
Where's the
I-I-I thought we were building
a future together.
Um, we are.
We don't need to be married to do that.
Yeah, but you're moving back to Italy.
Ah, bambina, what do you
want me to do about that?
That wasn't my plan, either.
Do you think I want to move
back to a country where
That reminds me of my dead
mother, my dead brother,
and my very difficult father?
I'm sorry I have to leave.
If there was any other way, I
There is. [GROANS]
We could get married.
I'm not getting married
just because of the visa.
"Just because"?
You know what I mean.
I really don't, apparently.
Maya, this is not something you do
to solve a problem.
I don't see any other way.
We are doing the other way.
I've already left Grey-Sloan.
I-I got a job in Italy.
I am about to go to the airport.
We can't get married
just because you don't want
to be apart from me.
That's not why we would be
getting married.
That's why we moved in together.
That was just the bureaucracy of it.
And s-so is this marriage idea.
It's bureaucracy.
The only reason it's coming up
is because
I'm not from this country
and I can't stay in yours.
- That's it.
- "That's it"?
That's a pretty good reason.
M-Maya, you didn't even want this
until you started getting sad
about me leaving.
Started? I have been devastated.
I am trying to lead my team through
one of the worst moments in our history.
I have a firehouse full
of grieving firefighters
and a girlfriend that's about
to leave me to go to Italy!
Oh, I know, Maya! I know
it's been a very hard year!
Not just for you Trust me!
[SIGHS]
Carina, I love you.
But?
Maybe you're right.
This is This is crazy.
Maybe we moved too fast.
Maybe we didn't think this through.
Maybe we hardly know each other.
Maybe we should just take a break.
I mean, not Not for good.
Just [STAMMERS]
We don't even know when you're
gonna be able to come back.
And s And so, what?
You want to see other people?

No, but the time difference

and I'll be busy.

Maya, breathe.

unimaginable
Breathe. Breathe, Maya. Breathe.

Carina, we have learned
more about each other
in the last two hours than we have
in our entire relationship.
I should have known
that you don't want to get married
and that you do want to have babies.
I knew it.
I knew you would freak out
on me eventually.
Carina, everything you said is right.
I've made no effort to learn
your culture or your language.
I do not understand
what you're going through
with all your visa stuff.
I mean, maybe we're just not
right for each other.
Ah, okay. So, you want to
break up temporarily?
Or are we breaking up
because we're not right for each other?
I didn't say "break up."
I said "take a break."
Frankly, I don't
understand the difference.
W Or, do you want to get married?
I married you the day I moved
into this apartment, Maya.
I don't believe in ticking a box
and calling that a marriage.
I-I believe in building a life
together with the person
you want to spend it with
every single day.
When I moved into this house, for me,
that was a marriage.
That is not how it works.
No, marriage the kind
the government says is okay
Puts an obligation on love.
Marriage ruins family.
Marriage is just a made up
financial
Marriage is what can keep us together!
Exactly!
It is crazy that
the only recourse that I have
to stay in Seattle
To stay in my life with you
Is to sign a piece of paper saying that
I will never leave you!
A piece of paper that people like us
aren't allowed to have in my country.
And if it's j-just so much crap,
then why does it matter?!
Why not just do it so that
we can stay together?!
So we can be together while
the world is burning?!
Everyone is so scared,
everyone is lonely,
everyone is desperate,
and we have each other.
We got so lucky, and you are willing
to throw that away on a principle.
No, Maya. You are throwing it away.
I am just being realistic.
