Everwood s04e16 Episode Script

ANNOUNCER: Previously on Everwood: I'm afraid my cancer is gonna ruin our chances of adoption.
It must have crossed your mind.
Do you think they're gonna give a child to someone less than a year out of chemo? I think we'll be fine.
-Really? -Really.
-That sucks.
Think they made a mistake? -No.
My GPA's on life support.
I've been behind.
It's just snowballed.
I don't see how they expect us to keep up.
There's so much work, they want everyone to fail.
-Tony Tiggerello.
-Ada, hey.
-Problems in the boudoir? -Yeah.
That is a shame given you're at your sexual peak and all.
Hey, why don't we get out of town this weekend? -Let's do something fun.
-Sounds great.
Where do you wanna go? I don't know, we could go to the mountains or we could go to New Mexico.
-We can go to ltaly.
-We can't afford to go to ltaly.
Well, if we rob a bank or steal a car, then we could.
Or we could steal a plane-- Are you okay? You're acting weirder than usual.
No.
I mean, yes, I am okay.
I'm just, you know, goofing around.
-Oh, all that time for a muffin? -It's not just a muffin.
It's a white-chocolate-chip muffin.
They're very rare.
I almost had to take this old lady out to get this.
Have you ever been to Peak Falls? -No.
-You haven't? My God.
It's a two-mile hike.
It's beautiful.
-Wait, I could pack a picnic.
-That's perfect.
Ooh, ooh.
-What's the occasion? -I need some kind of occasion to hang out with my girl? Uh, no, but you need a special occasion to use the term "my girl.
" I don't think this is it.
-Why don't you come? -No, that's okay.
I think picnicking with you takes the third-wheel thing to a level I'm not comfortable with.
We need to find you somebody.
Bright, can you think of anyone? -Think.
-Mm.
That was fast.
ADA: Hi.
Mm, yeah, okay, someone like her, only less.
Someone smarter, sweeter.
Dude, we know her.
What's her name again? -I don't know.
-Yeah, no, you do know.
Remember you took me--? That's when we got our fake lDs.
Is that Ada? Hey, Ada.
-Hey.
-Hi, I'm Bright Abbott.
Uh, this is my girlfriend, Hannah.
-Hi, nice to meet you.
-Hi.
Hey.
Ephram Brown.
You probably remember me as Gus Walberg.
Or not, that's okay too.
Muffin? Sure, thank you.
Ha, ha.
-Stitch 'n Bitch? -Oh, I'm starting this circle at my store.
-You should come.
-That actually sounds really fun.
Thanks.
Anyways, I'm gonna go find more recruits.
It was really nice to meet you.
Thank you so much for the muffin.
I'll see you guys later.
-Bye.
-Bye.
Okay, I'm a horrible person.
She seems really nice.
She knits.
Oh, I should go make you a scarf.
No.
I hate scarves.
They're suffocating and kind of-- They kind of strangle you.
They're scratchy.
It's like a noose-- -Why are you acting so weird? -What? No, I'm fine.
I need a little water, I think.
I'll be right back.
Are you all right? You look a little sick.
I think it's because it's like a sauna in here.
You crank up the heat? Uh, no, actually, it's freezing cold.
So tell me what's going on with that look between you and Ada.
-Who? -Oh, don't even try that on me.
Ada, you know Ada.
You were in love with her all of high school.
I was not in love with her.
You don't talk about other chicks around your girlfriend.
It's not cool.
Okay, that doesn't count when you're talking about Ada.
That's like having a crush on Heidi Klum.
You can't get in trouble for that.
-Are you cleaning right now? -Yes, I am.
What's with the questions, man? What, I can't clean? I can't have a clean place to live? Did you hook up with her? -What? No, no, I did not, no.
-Yeah, you did.
You totally did.
That is awesome.
Why didn't you tell me? BRlGHT: Can we please drop it? No, we can't drop it.
Why are you being so weird? -I'm not being weird.
-Uh, yeah, you are.
When did this happen? Was it that summer, after we got my lD? Last week.
Oh.
That I did not expect.
It was a terrible mistake.
I will never, ever, ever do it again.
-What happened? I mean, how? -She was on campus.
She had this big table she couldn't fit in the back of her car.
So I said, "Hey, why don't you use my truck?" Brought the table over to her new store, and we were talking, and it just happened.
"lt"? Did you sleep with her? That's bad.
I know.
Okay, uh, what are you gonna tell Hannah? I mean, what are you--? How are you gonna say it? I'm not gonna tell Hannah anything.
You're just gonna pretend like nothing happened? -Pretty much, yeah.
-You sure you can live with that? I guess I'm gonna have to.
"l think of him and I remember there's always a reason to try again.
I think of him, and I can hope to hope.
" Thank you.
[CROWD CHATTERlNG.]
WOMAN: I'll never get mine signed.
Don't be shy.
He's actually a pretty nice fella.
-Really? -You want him to sign your book? -Oh, well, I was thinking about it.
-Come on, I'll take it to him.
I'm his wife.
-Who should he make it out to? -How about to his daughter? -Cassie.
-Hey, Daddy.
Ha-ha-ha! ANDY: Take care, Henry.
Lee Kelsey called.
Oh, and the adoption agency.
They have a few questions about Dr.
Abbott.
Aha.
Looks like I finally get to unload all that dirt I have on you, Harold.
-May I speak to you for a moment? -Sure.
So about the interview-- Don't worry, I won't bring up you shoplifting that pack of gum nor will I tell any inappropriate jokes.
Really, I can be serious when I put my mind to it.
It's not that.
It's about something I've done, something I did in haste.
I'm finding myself in somewhat of a pickle.
I'm not sure how to handle it.
A pickle, huh? Oh, that is serious.
I'm sorry, Harold, what is it? On the application I submitted for our adoption on Rose's medical history I omitted any mention of her cancer.
That's a pretty big omission.
You could call, tell them it was a mistake.
Let them know not only are the Abbotts a medical risk, they're also liars? No, I doubt somehow that that would help.
Andy, I wish I could undo what I did, but it's too late.
Now I'm hoping for a miracle.
I only need to have this hidden for a few more months just until Rose and I get our child.
It's more than a few months.
This secret, this information, could come out at any time even after you get the child.
-I have kept bigger secrets for you.
-I know you have.
-And I'd do this for you regardless-- -You don't need to worry about this, Andy.
It's my problem.
It sits on my shoulders.
I'm so glad you're here.
I'll see you tomorrow.
Well, good to see she still hates my white ass.
Oh, come on, now.
Ha, ha.
You sure were getting along like gangbusters.
I never knew you were so close.
Well, we haven't talked in a while.
A lot to catch up on.
Maybe you should go to dinner alone.
-You don't need me there.
-I want you there.
You just gotta give Cassie some time to warm up to you.
Time isn't gonna help.
She's had five years to get used to it, Harper.
Cassie never came to our wedding, never came to visit.
She doesn't want to, and we both know why.
She doesn't like that you're married to a white woman.
Well, your family didn't like it too much either, not to mention the whole town.
Well, my family didn't like it because we married two months after Hal Sr.
died.
As for the town, you're right.
But they got over it, unlike Cassie.
She'll get over it too.
Once she gets to know you, she's gonna see what I see and she's gonna love you.
So you wanna see Pride & Prejudice.
What is that about, racism? Ah.
Well, sure.
Listen, we'll do whatever you want, darling.
Yeah.
All right, I'll see you in a minute.
Love you, bye.
Hannah's coming over.
-Where you going? -Uh, I don't know, maybe to the library.
You don't have to.
We're only gonna be here a couple minutes.
-No, it's cool.
-All right, what's up, man? Speak your mind.
I don't wanna be here when Hannah's here.
It's, uh, no big deal.
If you leave every time Hannah comes, it's a big deal.
I don't wanna tell what you can do.
I just don't wanna be here when you do it.
-When I do what? -Lie to her and stuff.
Damn, must be easy living in your world, huh? Never do anything wrong, never make mistakes.
-I never said that.
-This is such crap, dude.
How many times have I had your back, huh? -The time you were screwing my sister over? -I never cheated.
You would've kicked my ass.
I would've deserved it.
Do you ever get tired of being this judgmental? All right, I'm sorry but I just-- It sucks what you did to her.
I feel bad for her.
I think that.
-Never mind.
-What, you just think that what? This could've been avoided if you trusted your gut.
You wanted to break up months ago.
You told me I should break up with her.
You thought we would never work out.
So you know what? Screw you.
You're the one who put this in my head.
And it's probably because it was you, my friend, why it stuck.
-So this is my fault? -You know it is.
You're so full of-- What's going on? I could hear yelling all the way down the hall.
See you in a bit.
-Are you okay? What happened? -Nothing.
Uh, I'm gonna go get my jacket.
-Bright, come on, what's going on? -No, it's nothing, it's fine.
[UPBEAT ROCK MUSlC PLAYlNG OVER SPEAKERS.]
Hey.
Hey.
Thanks for meeting me.
I know you're really busy.
No, no, it's fine.
Um.
-How's life? -Good, good, fine.
How's life with you? Good.
I'm really enjoying this, um, lnternational Relations class that I'm taking.
-I'm even thinking about learning Mandarin.
-Wow, that's, uh-- That sounds harder than Spanish but probably way more important.
Are there a lot of Mandarin people in Everwood? -Um-- -You know what? I know you only have 10 minutes, and I need to talk so could we skip the fake nice stuff and push on through the weird? -Yes, please.
-Okay.
What happened? Well, nothing actually happened, it's just.
-Bright? -Yes.
I just feel like there's this huge wall between us that you can't see but I can totally feel, and everything is just off.
-He's even fighting with Ephram.
-Really? Maybe I'm being paranoid.
I feel like he's pulling away from everyone, and I don't know why.
-Has he talked to you? -I haven't talked to him since that dinner.
I think he's still mad.
But I could talk to Ephram if you wanted.
I don't wanna make you do that if it's too weird.
No, no, I'm happy to, really.
But honestly, I wouldn't worry.
Knowing Bright, it's something really stupid.
This is a guy who broke his hand trying to karate-chop a piece of wood in half.
Yeah, I probably shouldn't let him watch those Bruce Lee movies anymore.
-No.
-Ha, ha.
-Hey.
-Hey, Dr.
Hartman.
Reid Bardem.
Thank you for taking the time to meet with me.
Absolutely.
Have a seat.
-Gotta keep the hands strong.
-Yeah.
-What can I do for you? -Uh, I'm in my first year at med school.
I'm looking for an office to intern at this quarter and I was hoping you could use someone.
-Are you interested in plastic surgery? -Uh, well, not really.
I came here because I know you work solo and that your office is always busy and plus I heard you were the coolest doctor in town.
Hmm.
That I am.
Uh, well, I was, uh, really just looking for, you know something that'll give me an edge when I apply to residencies.
-Can I try that? -Oh, yeah, sure.
Thanks.
Ha, ha.
This is cool.
So do you have any clinical experience yet? Um, yeah, actually, I've been working at the clinic on campus since I started.
Before that, I was an EMT for two years and, uh-- Oh, and last summer, I volunteered over at the hospital, so.
You're really on the ball, Reid.
And you have shockingly strong hands.
Yes, I think I could use you around here if for no other reason than I think you could probably lift really heavy stuff.
Really? Yes.
Wow, this is great, l-- You will not regret this.
[CELL PHONE RlNGlNG.]
-I think this is my adviser.
Do you mind? -Go ahead, go ahead.
Hello? Hey.
Hey, Dr.
Franco.
Yeah.
Do you mind telling me what this is about? Okay, yeah, uh, I'll see you tomorrow.
-Everything okay? -Yeah.
You know, med school.
Professors are always on you about something.
Yeah, I remember it well.
I gotta get to my patient.
I'll have Edna give you a call.
-All right.
Thank you, really.
-You got it.
[SlGHS.]
What made you decide to write it? I didn't even know you read fiction.
Well, it's something I always wanted to do but never seemed to find the time for.
Then I got laid off from my job and was moping around the house and finally, Edna couldn't take it anymore.
She found a beautiful office for me.
Then he had no more excuses.
Ha, ha.
[BABY CRlES.]
-Oh, already? -No, no, no, I'll do it, you stay.
Good girl.
She's usually asleep by this time.
[SlGHS.]
[BABY CRYlNG.]
Oh, I'll be right back.
I can't stand to hear her cry.
It kills me.
Is my vision funny, or does that guy look white to you? [LAUGHS.]
I'm as shocked as you are.
I guess that blows your whole racist theory out of the water.
Mm-hm.
Well, if she's so down with whitey, what's she got against me? Yeah, she still doesn't trust me with Olivia.
Apparently, I don't swaddle tightly enough.
So how did you and Cassie meet again? Through friends.
ANDY: Harold is an extraordinary husband and father.
I'm constantly going to him for parenting advice.
He could be the next Dr.
Phil.
What do you mean by that? Well, I mean that Harold gives great advice, just like Dr.
Phil.
Although I've never actually seen his show.
I'm more of an Oprah man myself.
What about that book club, am I right? What do you see as the Abbotts' greatest weakness as potential adoptive parents? Oh.
Well, that's a hard one.
Uh.
Maybe Harold's too organized.
He likes things in their place.
Think that'll be a problem with a child running around? Oh, no, no, no.
I mean, he's already raised two children.
I'm sure their house was very chaotic when they were growing up.
Uh, I don't mean more chaotic than normal, just normal chaos.
Funny chaos, like a Neil Simon play.
Do you go to the theater much? -You seem nervous, Dr.
Brown.
-Me? No, no, no, I'm just a little fidgety.
I probably just have to pee.
I've also noticed that you've been talking mostly about Dr.
Abbott.
Is there a reason you avoid discussing Mrs.
Abbott? No, no, I just-- I work very closely with Harold every day.
As a character witness, I have more to say about his character.
[CELL PHONE RlNGS.]
If there's something about Rose specifically-- Sorry, that's my boss.
I have to get back.
-One last thing.
-Oh, good.
I mean what? Is there anything about the Abbotts that you think makes them less than ideal candidates? Or any last thing you think we should know about them? Yes, there is, actually.
I can't think of two people on Earth who would make better parents than Harold and Rose Abbott.
Good.
So how do things look for them? I can't really comment on that.
It mostly depends on how the foreign orphanage and their government feels about the Abbotts.
-Thank you for your time.
-My pleasure.
[DOOR OPENS.]
[DOOR CLOSES.]
[SlGHS.]
-Can I give you a hand with that? -Nope, I'm good.
Listen, Cassie, help me out here, because I'm a little confused.
I know you don't like me but I always thought it was because you weren't keen on interracial relationships.
[LAUGHS.]
-Of course you'd think that.
-Look, we don't have to be bosom buddies.
But wouldn't it be nice if we could get along for your father's sake? For my father's sake? I don't hear so much as boo from you all this time and you're telling me you care about me and my dad? Well, of course I care.
I know you don't see each other often but-- I think we all know whose fault that is.
-Pfft.
You're worse than my mother.
-Excuse me? You must be some high-maintenance lady because ever since my father married you, I haven't seen him not once in five years.
I was starting to think you had him ball-gagged in the closet.
Your father not calling you has nothing to do with me.
It has everything to do with you.
Did you have any idea we had a trip planned to South America? -No, I didn't.
-Well, it was all planned.
Then I get a phone call the night before we were supposed to leave.
I'm packing my bag, I'm loading my camera and I'm on top of the world.
I'm thinking he's calling to tell me what time he'd pick me up the next morning.
But instead, he's calling to tell me he wouldn't be able to make the trip because he was marrying you.
I don't know what to say.
This is the first time I've heard of any of this.
My dad has always been a bit of a wanderer.
That's the one thing my mother could never understand that he wouldn't be happy staying put at home, playing house with her.
But somehow you've managed to do just that, huh? I'm not about to make friends with the woman who's keeping my father away from me.
-Oh, hey, Dr.
Brown.
-Hey, Amy, come on in.
-Hey, Delia.
-Hey.
-Did you get shorter? -No, but I think you got a little bit taller.
Well, this feels like old times.
You wanna stay for dinner? We're making pizza.
Oh, I'm sorry, I can't.
-Um, so Ephram's? -Living room.
-Cool, thank you.
ANDY: Mm-hm.
[PLAYlNG DRAMATlC CLASSlCAL MUSlC.]
When are you gonna start playing stuff that I can sing along to? If you can't sing along to Rachmaninoff, I don't think I can help you.
Are you here to practice, or is there something else going on? -What do you mean? -I know you're avoiding the apartment.
I talked to Hannah.
She said you and Bright are fighting or something.
Yeah, well, yeah, kind of, but it's nothing.
I'm sure it'll, uh, blow over eventually.
-What happened? -I can't really talk to you about it.
-Why not, is it about me? -No.
Well, then who is it about? You don't wanna know.
It's bad.
I wish I didn't know.
Hey.
We've tried to keep things from each other.
It doesn't work.
You wind up in Europe, I wind up a women's studies major.
You're right, that's bad.
I just want you to know that I'm your friend and if you're struggling with something, I'm here for you.
Maybe I could help in some way.
Bright cheated on Hannah.
-You mean he actually? -Yeah.
How did you find out? You walk in on them? No, no.
God, no.
At least now I know there would've been a worse way for it to go down.
-Thank you for that.
-How did--? I mean, who--? No, forget it, never mind.
I don't even wanna know.
Who? It doesn't matter.
It's nobody you know, somebody.
-Hannah's gonna die when she finds out.
-She's not gonna.
He's not gonna tell her.
-What? -lt sucks, I know.
He has to tell her.
He's not, trust me.
I tried talking to him about it.
Does he think he's gonna lie to Hannah and I'm not gonna do anything? Well, you can't do anything because technically, you don't know about it.
I never would've told you if I thought you were gonna go to Hannah.
Fine, I'll talk to him.
-No, no, no.
Amy.
-We can't just let him do this, Ephram.
He already did it.
It's not our business how-- -It's our business.
Hannah's my best friend.
-Bright is my best friend.
-You're defending him? -No, I think the whole thing sucks.
I can't even go by the apartment because I don't wanna run into Hannah.
I can't go behind Bright's back and betray his trust and try to get him to do something that he's not ready to do.
-I'm sure he'll tell her eventually.
-You're not sure at all.
But I'd like to believe he will.
I'd like to believe that all men aren't pigs, but you all are.
-Okay, so I'm a pig now? -Well, you're part of the pig problem.
-I'm telling Hannah.
-You're selling me out here.
Don't put this on me.
You told me about it.
-What do you expect me to do? -Yep, just like old times.
EPHRAM: You made me tell you.
AMY: No, I didn't.
EPHRAM: You did.
AMY: You told me.
EPHRAM: Yeah, but I didn't wanna tell you.
You drink any more of that champagne, I'm gonna have to do your reading for you.
[lRV CHUCKLES.]
Oh, we've still got a couple hours.
What do you say we go back to bed? I'm not exactly in the mood, Harper.
I'm still bristling over that dressing-down I got from your daughter.
Oh, that's just Cassie.
-She's always had fire in her belly.
-That's not fire, that's anger.
I think Cassie's just reacting to the fact that you're her stepmother.
Stepmothers and stepdaughters never get along.
They make Disney movies about it.
Well, you're not exactly Prince Charming in this whole deal.
What does that mean? Look, I am willing to take the fall for you as far as Cassie is concerned.
She can hate me till hell freezes over.
But she blames her mother too.
That girl is mad at everyone except the person she should be mad at: you.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't you the absentee father? -Now you're just being belligerent.
-Oh, honey, I am not trying to attack you.
Lord knows I've been a crappy mother and don't have a leg to stand on.
But it seems like that girl's carrying around a lot of pain.
And you must be too.
Why haven't you seen her in five years? I guess it always seemed easier not to.
I wasn't around much when Cassie was growing up.
And when I see her, I feel guilty.
I feel like I owe her, like I have to make up for all that lost time.
You do owe her.
And maybe you can't make up for that time.
I couldn't with Junior.
But you can do something about the present.
-And risk losing what I have now.
-What you have now isn't real.
So, what are you risking? You joining the Peace Corps? Hey.
No, Bright and I are going camping this weekend at Peak Falls.
I think it might be exactly what we need.
Just, you know, get out of town, do something fun.
-You seem a lot better.
-Yeah, I am.
Yeah, I've decided to try the whole power-of-positive-thinking thing.
You know, I think I was probably being paranoid.
I'm always so scared something's wrong, that we need to fix something.
-Maybe I was the one that was off.
-No, Hannah.
-Sorry for bugging you with all this.
-Are you kidding me? You can talk to me about anything.
-That's what I'm here for.
-That mean we're not fighting anymore? No, we were never fighting, just working through some stuff.
RElD: I didn't cheat.
You got the highest score in the whole class despite that you've been close to failing.
The school flags this kind of discrepancy right away.
No, no, no, I studied incredibly hard this time, harder than I ever have.
I feel like I'm starting to get it.
Two students came up to me separately and said they saw you using a crib sheet.
-Who? -You have two choices, Reid.
-I'll do whatever I have to do to stay.
-That's not an option.
This school has a zero-tolerance policy towards cheating.
-You will be expelled.
-No, but l-- You can either admit what you did and, you know, apply somewhere else in a year or two or you can fight the charges and guarantee no school will ever accept you.
No, no, no.
No, see, I can't be expelled.
Aren't you guys listening to me? I mean, there's gotta be someone else I can talk to.
-lt can't just be over like this.
-lt is, Reid.
I'm sorry.
Is everything all right? The consulate did receive our lNS forms? Everything is fine.
Better than fine, actually.
-Hello.
-I just wanted to, uh, drop this by in person.
More paperwork? I think I'm developing carpal tunnel from all the signing.
We found a match.
This is Chewe your child.
-Oh, my goodness.
-He's 19 months old.
-He's so beautiful.
ROSE: Oh, I never dreamed-- -My God, I can't believe this.
-Oh, I know, sweetheart.
I know, I know.
Now, you'll want to review his records carefully and take your time to decide whether you want to commit yourself to this child.
-Oh.
-But if you decide to go forward it's just a matter of processing the paperwork to legally adopt Chewe.
Thank you, Madeline, for everything you've done.
Congratulations.
And there's nothing else we need to do right now? Because I did contact another oncologist, and he's happy to be a second reference if the orphanage needs more assurance about my health.
-Oncologist? -Rose-- What, uh, medical issues are you referring to, Mrs.
Abbott? My cancer.
The spinal tumor I had removed last year.
It's all in your files, the medical histories that Harold sent you.
You sent the medical histories? There's nothing in our records about you ever having had cancer.
I'm sorry.
I'm so very sorry.
[CASSlE LAUGHS.]
CASSlE: So Olivia's birthday is September And Elmo's coming.
Hey, is that the purple thing or the red thing? -It's the red thing.
-Ha-ha-ha.
Dad, I know you're busy with your tour.
If you can't make it, I understand.
But if you do come, I'll make sure that Mom doesn't.
Well, I think your mother and l can be in the same room together.
No, it's cool, I'd much rather have you there than her.
Cassie you've got to understand something.
I don't blame your mom for what happened to us.
She left me because I wasn't there enough and because I was a bad father to you.
No, Dad, come on, that's not true.
You were always my favorite.
-And I always felt closer to you.
-And I always loved that.
But the fact is, I wasn't there for you like she was.
That's because she never let you.
She was always criticizing you, never satisfied.
Listen to me, Cassie.
Your mom and I had our problems long before you were born.
But when you came along, I realized that I wasn't ready to be a father.
I couldn't handle it, and she felt that.
I guess I just.
[SlGHS.]
I guess I just thought you always had a good reason for leaving.
There's never a good reason for a father to leave his little girl.
And I don't know what your mom did all these years to protect me but I don't deserve it.
And I don't want you blaming her anymore, or anyone else, for me not being around.
-We don't need to talk about that-- -I couldn't handle it.
Why are you saying all this to me right now? Because I want a real relationship with you, Cassie.
I don't wanna lose any more time pretending.
I think it's too late for that, Dad.
[KNOCKlNG ON DOOR.]
Yeah? Come in.
-I need to talk to you.
-Well, I'm heading out the door, so.
You're gonna have to tell Hannah the truth.
-Ephram, that little son of a-- -It's not his fault.
I made him tell me.
It doesn't even matter, because Hannah knows something's off.
-She came to ask me what was going on.
-So what? We're going out of town.
Everything is gonna go back to normal.
Sorry, no.
Because if you don't tell her, I will.
-You have no right.
-She's my best friend.
Best friend, my ass.
You've treated her like crap for months, and all of sudden you care? I never stopped caring, and I can't believe you have.
Oh, screw you, okay? -I love that girl more than I've loved anyone.
-Then why the hell did you do it? [BAG CRASHES.]
I made a mistake, okay? I screwed up.
And it's never gonna happen again, I know that.
But if you tell her.
Oh, God, please don't tell her.
I know that you wanna erase the bad thing that you did and pretend like it never even happened, but you can't.
And you know that you can't.
In some ways, what you're doing to Hannah right now is worse than cheating.
You are making a fool out of her, Bright.
I don't even know why I did it.
This whole time, I thought I was missing out on something I needed by being with Hannah.
What I realize is Hannah is all I need.
And now that I've finally figured that out, I'm gonna lose her.
You don't know that.
You don't.
Just tell her what you just told me, just like that.
She's never gonna forgive me.
-She might.
-No.
But if you don't tell her now, you'll never get a chance.
Keeping a secret from someone you love even if you think you're doing it for all of the right reasons, is a betrayal.
Trust me, I learned it the hard way last year.
Don't do what I did.
I just-- I don't want this to be over.
I know you don't.
If you would have waited, I could have gotten that for free.
Oh, that's okay, I stole it.
So you talked to Bright? Yes, I did.
Sorry if you feel I sold you out.
I just couldn't let that happen to Hannah.
I probably would've done the same in your shoes.
I know you would have.
And since we're apologizing, I'm sorry I yelled at you.
Please, it's nothing I haven't been subjected to before.
-And I'm sorry I called you a pig.
-Yeah, that was really uncalled for.
I can't believe this is happening, you know? I feel so sad for them.
Yeah, what's gonna happen? -What do you think she's gonna do? -I don't know.
What would you do? Would you have forgiven me? Probably not, but you would never have done what Bright did.
Yeah, true.
Only because I know you would've come after me with a knife.
[CHUCKLES.]
You know, I hate to say this but I'm surprised they lasted as long as they did.
I mean, Bright and Hannah are so different.
I could never see how it was gonna end, but I could never see how it would last.
I know, but I still had hope.
You wanna believe that people can work out if they really want to, you know? Yeah.
It always seems like there's so many people that you could work out with.
But in reality, it's almost impossible to find somebody that you connect with on all levels, you know? Not just one level.
Yeah, it is.
-I should, uh, get to work.
-Yeah, don't be late.
See you.
-You wanna try Cassie again? -No, I already left her three messages.
I'm sorry, Harper.
I'm gonna go see if the car is outside.
Cassie.
I thought you should at least have a picture of your granddaughter.
Thank you.
And here's a, um, invitation to her birthday party.
Dave wanted me to give you that.
Dave, huh? I'd really like it if you could come.
And you too, Edna.
I like that you speak your mind.
You got fire in your belly, lady.
Coming from you, I'll take that as a compliment.
Thank you, Cassie, for the invite and for coming down.
Okay, I'll see you then.
JAKE: Reid, hey.
-Hey, Dr.
Hartman.
You wanna start tomorrow? I got a light afternoon.
You can shadow me.
You know, um, I don't think I'm gonna be needing that internship anymore.
But thanks.
Okay.
Is everything okay? No.
Not really.
[DOOR OPENS THEN CLOSES.]
Rose, how much longer do you intend to give me the silent treatment? You can't keep sleeping in the guest room for the rest of our lives.
Actually, I can.
I don't know what else to say, Rose.
I'm sorry.
What were you thinking, Harold? What could possibly have been going through your mind? I wasn't thinking, Rose.
I was acting purely out of emotion.
The moment I saw that question, I knew we were just fooling ourselves.
We would never have been considered, let alone gotten as far as we did.
-You don't know that.
-I do, Rose.
I do know that, and so do you.
Then what was the point of getting us all this way of leading us down this path, if you were so certain of the outcome? Because I wanted it as much as you did.
I wanted to think it was possible.
I didn't wanna hear no.
Well, maybe we wouldn't have.
Sweetheart, it takes five years to be truly out of the woods.
You're not even one year into your remission.
We have a follow-up appointment and another scan to take less than three-- Don't you think I know that? It's just not fair.
I'm strong.
I'm healthy.
I know I could take care of this child.
He would be so happy with us.
I know, Rose.
The only thing I think about more than that baby is all those damn appointments.
I have every one of them written down in my book.
It won't be till those five years pass that I'll feel like this is really behind us.
It just doesn't end, does it? [HARRY SlGHS.]
Hey.
Hey.
Almost ready.
Just need to decide on the Gatorade.
What color do you like? -Uh, Hannah-- -I know.
I couldn't decide.
There were too many flavors, even "Extreme" ones, whatever that means.
Hannah, there's something I have to tell you.
Okay.
Uh, a couple of weeks ago when we were arguing and you didn't call me back, uh something happened.
What happened? I messed up.
I-- And I didn't mean to do it and if I could take it back, oh, God, I would in a second-- Okay, hang on.
Um, wait, what are you saying? I mean, you didn't.
Did you cheat on me? I'm sorry.
And, you know, it was so stupid.
-Oh, my gosh.
-This was a mistake.
-And it's not-- I don't-- -I don't wanna hear it.
I don't wanna know.
-lt was the stupidest thing I've ever done.
-I don't wanna know about it.
-She means nothing to me.
-Oh, God.
No, no, no, just stop.
I need you to go.
You have to go now.
-Hannah.
-Please.
