Everwood s04e18 Episode Script

AMY: Previously on Everwood: EPHRAM: Reid tried to kill himself.
I found him on the floor of the bathroom with a whole bottle of sleeping pills.
Doctor said he's gonna be okay.
ANDY: You're going through a rough patch, that's all it is.
-Relationships are hard.
-ls it supposed to be this hard? Because, I mean, sometimes other situations they just feel a lot easier.
Why couldn't we have just kept going the way we were going? -Why did you have to mess it up? -lt wasn't a thinking choice.
I don't think I can forgive you, Bright.
[NlCOLE GORDON'S "MY HEART'S BROKEN" PLAYlNG ON STEREO.]
My heart's broken [THUMPlNG.]
Might as well stay that way My heart's broken Oh, sing it, girl.
[PHONE RlNGlNG.]
Might as well stay that way It's easier Yeah, that's not gonna happen.
RElD [ON MACHlNE.]
: Hey, what's up, guys? It's Reid.
They're letting me out today, so I should be home in about an hour.
-Can't wait to see you guys.
Bye.
-Oh, crap.
[PHONE RlNGS.]
-I can't talk now, Bright.
-How soon can you get here? -What's the matter? -What is it? Reid called.
They're letting him out.
Ephram's still in New York.
Which means I'm the entire welcome wagon to a guy that tried to off himself.
Okay, well, you are his roommate, Bright, so-- Look, I'm begging you, come over.
-Okay, I'll be there as fast as I can.
-Thank you, thank you very much.
-You listening to Sarah McLachlan? -Shut it.
What's the matter? What is it? Uh, Reid's coming home and Bright's scared to be there alone when he gets there.
I guess he's nervous about how to act around a recently suicidal person.
Fair enough.
It would be nice for Reid to have his friends there waiting for him when he gets home.
I mean, as a sign of love and support and all that stuff.
It's fine, Amy, I totally don't mind if you wanna go over there.
No.
No way, absolutely not.
No.
-No.
-You don't even know what I'm gonna say.
I am not going over to that house with you.
No.
No, no, no.
Hear me out.
This isn't even about Bright.
This is about Reid.
Isn't being there for him the Christian thing to do? If he accomplished what he set out to, he'd be on his way to H-E-double-hockey-sticks.
It is a sin, remember? So don't try and bring Jesus into this.
No, no.
Okay, fine, forget Jesus.
What about just good old-fashioned friendship? Being there for somebody who needs you.
I.
I feel bad for Reid, I do.
I just-- I am not ready to see Bright, okay? It's not the right time.
That's where I think you're wrong.
I think it's the perfect time.
I mean, the Reid thing is so huge, it kind of diffuses the you-and-Bright thing.
True.
And you're having a really good hair day.
And your hands and your feet are all new and shiny.
-Thought this was about Reid.
-lt is.
Doesn't mean you can't look good.
-Fine, but I am not staying long, okay? -Twenty minutes.
I wanna make sure he's okay and let him know we're here for him.
-Okay.
Aah! AMY: Hannah.
[HANNAH GROANS.]
Uh, we're gonna need a touchup.
-Sorry.
-Sorry.
SPA ATTENDANT: No problem.
HANNAH: Man.
DELlA: Dad! Dad! What is it, sweetie? Somebody hurt? -No, it's worse.
-So much worse.
I found out Thalia's birthday party is the same day as my bat mitzvah.
We have to change it to another weekend.
How's July sound? We can't move your bat mitzvah.
It's like a wedding, except instead of a groom, you have a cantor.
Can't you call everybody, tell them you made a mistake? Or send an emergency e-mail.
Much more efficient.
No, I can't, and frankly, I don't understand what the big deal is.
Why can't Thalia just move her party? Thalia's the most popular person in our whole grade.
-We're talking both classrooms.
-Sweetheart your bat mitzvah isn't just a party.
It's an important rite of passage that took months and months of planning.
Lots of people plan stuff then change the dates.
My stepmother changed a whole cruise vacation because she figured out it was gonna be her time of the month.
Thank you, Brittany.
I'm sorry, sweetheart, but there's nothing I can do.
And I promise you, people will still come.
Now I have to get back to work.
You gonna be okay? You're still coming to mine, right? I don't know.
I mean, I'm not even Jewish.
You're lucky.
We were obviously chosen to be miserable.
Yeah.
AMY: Hello? -Thank God you're here.
I have no idea what to say when Reid gets here.
-Oh, hey, Hannah.
-Hello, Bright.
-So when's he getting here? -Any minute now.
So here's the game plan.
You two talk to him.
I'm gonna hang back, kind of supervise.
Don't be a moron.
What's that smell? It smells like deodorant.
BRlGHT: Yeah.
It's Right Guard, okay? My apartment stunk.
I didn't have any air freshener left.
-Surprise.
-Welcome home.
-Hi.
-I'm not gonna break.
HANNAH: Okay.
-Good having you back, man.
-Missed you too, man.
So how are you? Really great.
Although my back's kind of sore.
The beds in that place really suck.
But, uh, I'm just really happy to be home.
All right, guys, talk to me.
What did I miss? Anything exciting? -No.
-No, not really.
BRlGHT: No.
-Where's, uh, Ephram? Is he at school? -Ephram's in New York.
He's with, uh, Kyle.
-Cool.
Living the Juilliard dream.
Right on.
Hey, uh, would you be up for some one-handed basketball? I'm stir-crazy from being cooped up.
Could use the exercise.
-Yeah, sure, of course.
-Cool.
-I'll jump in the shower and then we'll go? -All right.
-Am I missing something? -That was, uh, a little weird.
A little? He's acting like he just got back from the spa instead of the hospital.
-Maybe he's just back to normal.
-No, that's not possible.
It's too soon.
Either way, I think he's doing okay for now, so I'm gonna get going.
-Oh, okay, I'll be out in a second.
HANNAH: Okay.
-She couldn't even look at me.
-It's just gonna take some time, Bright.
How long, do you think? I don't know.
Longer than it's taken Reid.
Well, everything looks great.
We'll have that cesarean in two days and you will go home with a beautiful baby girl.
-How's that sound, Kathy? -I know exactly who you are.
Once she gives birth, we'll be able to get her back on her medications right away.
Shouldn't take long for everything to get back to normal.
I don't even remember what normal looks like.
I feel like I've been hit by a truck every day for the past nine months.
You are looking rather run-down.
Why don't you come into my office? We can talk.
Perhaps I can prescribe something for that cold.
-Louise, if you could take care of Kathy? -Of course.
Think she'll even remember these last nine months? -Probably not to the extent that you will.
-Lucky her.
Schizophrenia's a brutal disease.
Kathy is a brave woman to go through with this pregnancy.
Or I'm stupid to let her go through with it.
I never wanted this, Dr.
Abbott.
I was happy with the two of us.
More than happy.
You know how stubborn Kathy can be.
Mm-hm.
Been that way since she was 1 5.
Even then, she was determined to be a mother, despite her illness.
That's the thing.
I've never seen her sick.
As long as I've known her, she's been on her pills.
Schizophrenia's just this concept.
It's like a story in a scrapbook from her childhood.
I had no idea it could be so bad.
-I didn't know how different she could be.
-Yeah.
Not to put a strain on your marriage but remember, when you're holding that little baby girl-- I can't even think about that.
I know it sounds horrible, but I already resent her, you know? The baby, I mean.
For putting me through this, for making me look at my wife differently.
James, has Kathy been violent? Oh, those.
I have no idea where those are from.
Look.
It's probably from fighting her to get in the bath or something.
Um, you said that you were feeling tired? Any other symptoms at all? Headache, nausea? Anything out of the ordinary? Uh, my gums have been bleeding lately, but I thought that was all from stress.
Well, I'm sure that it is.
But I'd like to run some blood work just as a precaution.
Sure, no problem.
Hey, you don't think I'm a horrible person, do you? -For those things that I said? -No, not at all.
I think you are a man who's deeply in love with his wife.
And I think she's lucky to have you.
Sandra Brown's Botox is up next.
And another fax came from UCLA.
Third one this week.
And the third one you've thrown away.
What's with the tree killing? -You're gonna run us out of fax paper.
-It's nothing.
Just my old partners from L.
A.
As usual, they're trying to take a good idea and make it profitable.
Evil bastards.
I know, I know, it's not such a terrible thing.
They want me to get my Master's in addictions counseling so I'd be more marketable when selling my rehab program.
If I had that degree, I could do more one-on-one work, counseling-type stuff.
Well, doc much as I'd miss helping you inject poison into snotty women's foreheads, sounds like a great opportunity.
-You could really help some people.
-Yeah, I know, I know.
Believe me, I'm getting tired of this stuff too.
I just don't think it's the right time to be making such a huge change.
Things are getting back on track with Nina.
-I don't wanna screw that up.
-Take her with you.
No, I could never ask her to leave Everwood.
She's already done so much for me.
And besides, this is her home.
She's happy here.
Her business is here, her friends.
What makes you think she'd choose all that stuff over you? I could never ask her to choose.
AMY: Here you go.
-Thanks, Amy, that's perfect.
-No worries.
Um, I was wondering if I could get a copy of Friday's notes from Burwick's class.
Sure thing.
You were out partying till dawn again, weren't you? You know me so well.
RElD: Hey.
-Hey.
-Friday night.
What are you doing? -Um.
Maybe we could grab dinner, see a movie or something.
-Okay-- -Unless it's not a good night for you.
-We could do it another night.
-Friday's good, I just-- Okay, great.
I'll call you and we'll figure it out.
-Okay.
-All right, see you.
You guys are out of TP again.
Third stall from the left.
-What's up? -I think Reid just asked me out on a date.
-And I think I said yes.
-Wait, seriously? -Do you like him again? -No, of course not.
It's just he's in a fragile state.
What was I supposed to say? Exactly.
Exactly.
What if he has a nervous breakdown? Or he tries to kiss you, you turn away, and he totally loses it? -You're not trained for any of that.
-You're freaking me out.
This is a freaky situation you've gotten yourself into, you know? So many things could go wrong.
You should not go alone.
Thank you, thank you.
You are such a good friend.
No, no, no, no, I am not going.
I can't go.
I am a terrible third wheel.
Well, then, so we'll get a fourth wheel.
It'll be less of a date thing and more a group-friend thing.
I don't have group friends.
You're my group.
Unless you want me to go with Ephram, which would be woogy.
-No, not Ephram.
-Don't even say Bright.
-Nick.
-Who? -I don't know anyone named Nick.
-You're about to.
Amy.
Hey, Nick, um, I'd like you to meet Hannah.
-Hi.
-Hey.
That's awful.
Poor Delia.
Yeah, I knew Thalia was trouble the minute I heard that squeaky voice talking about carbs and MTV.
She sounds like the devil to me.
Hey, you know, there is a flu going around.
Maybe-- Maybe there's a solution that doesn't involve germ warfare.
-Well, I'm open to suggestions.
JAKE: Well, it seems pretty simple.
Kids wanna be part of the coolest thing out there, right? Just make sure that Delia's party is so cool that no kid could turn it down.
I'm not sure that I wanna teach Delia she can buy her way out of a problem.
Exactly.
Can you imagine what she'd expect at her sweet 16? Why don't you talk to Thalia's mom? Once you explain the significance, I'm sure she'd consider moving Thalia's party.
-You just have to be reasonable.
ANDY: I don't know.
I tend to get pushy when I don't get my way.
And I'd hate to ruin Delia's entire junior-high-school experience.
I'll go with you.
I'm pretty good at keeping my cool.
Plus, moms love me.
-Really? -Really? Yes, absolutely.
And then we'd have the ganging-up effect as well, which, you know, works.
Right, babe? What? Uh, yeah, yeah.
-Right.
-Well, thanks, Nina.
You're really performing a mitzvah here.
That's Hebrew for "good deed.
" [NlNA CHUCKLES.]
Well, I'm off to save the world, Rose.
Second week working at the art museum, I'm already running late.
Let me grab my coffee and I'll walk out with you.
-Potassium? -Uh, no, thanks.
I'll get something at the museum coffee shop.
And I'm working late tonight.
I won't be home for dinner.
-But there are leftovers in the refrigerator.
-Don't worry about me.
Not sure if I'll be home for dinner either.
The office has been a virtual clinic.
-How late you think you'll be? -Oh, not sure, but don't wait up.
I'll probably go to bed as soon as I get home.
-As will l.
Well, have a good day, Rose.
-You too.
So you can see my point.
Uh, a bat mitzvah is an important milestone in a young woman's life.
It wouldn't be the same for Delia if Thalia weren't there.
No, it certainly wouldn't.
Thalia's a very special girl.
Yes.
So you'll move the party? I sympathize with you, Dr.
Brown, and I suppose I could move Thalia's party.
But then what kind of message would that send? That your daughter is more important than mine? That seems rather unfair.
I'm not sure you're getting the point.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime event for my daughter.
Delia has studied for months for this day.
It's very important that her friends be there.
Then perhaps you should consider moving the event if it means that much to Delilah.
It's Delia.
And how many times do we have to explain? It can't be moved.
It's a rite of passage, not a party.
I think we're done here.
Why don't we let the kids decide which one they'd rather go to? Give me a break.
Ashlee Simpson versus Cantor Fordis? -Where do you think they'll wanna go? -You can't blame me for that.
I think the problem here is that we just have different styles of parenting.
Oh, you are a piece of work.
I can see where your daughter gets her brat gene.
-Steady, Nina.
-I think you should leave now.
What are you gonna do, call Ashlee's bodyguards? -I'm so scared.
Bring it on, sweater set.
-And now it's time to go.
RElD: Totally.
That sounds great.
Okay, cool.
I'll pick you guys up at around 7, okay? All right.
I'll see you then.
Bye.
-What's got you doing a happy dance? -Nothing, just Amy confirming our date.
Don't worry, I already called Ephram.
He's totally cool with it.
-Alrighty, then.
RElD: Oh, yeah, it's so cool.
We're all going bowling.
I haven't done that since high school.
BRlGHT: You all who? Uh, me, Amy, Hannah and some Nick person? I figured he was a buddy or something.
Not my buddy.
I ain't got no buddies named Nick.
I know no Nicks.
Look, it's not something that I would stress about.
Sounded like a friend thing, you know? But what do I know? I'll keep an eye on him for you, okay? We need to figure out how to make Delia's bat mitzvah the place to be.
Do you know anybody at Apple? Because maybe we could give out nanos as party favors.
I don't even have a nano.
I thought that buying your way out of problems is not what we wanna teach the children.
Well, screw the lesson.
I want revenge.
I want Delia's party to kick ass.
But I thought it wasn't a party.
I thought it was a rite of passage.
Are you trying to annoy me right now? Because I'm already at, like, nine here.
Yeah, I can sense that.
-I'm just not sure I understand why.
-Because that woman was horrible.
But why do you care so much? When you think about it, it's not really your problem.
-It's not like the Browns are your family.
-Well, in a way, they are.
Yeah, but they're actually not.
I know they feel like they are, but you have a family already.
-There's gotta be a line, right? -What does that mean? [JAKE SlGHS.]
It means that feeling bad for Delia is one thing.
Marching over to some woman's house with Andy is another.
He's not your husband.
And did you ever even think about how it might make me feel? Especially knowing how you used to feel about him and how he used to feel about you.
You're totally right.
I am so sorry, Jake.
I didn't even think.
-You know there's nothing going on, right? -Yeah, I know that.
-Okay.
-I trust you.
What? Tell me.
It's nothing.
It just seems like since I got back from L.
A.
, things have been a little off between us.
-Am I crazy? -Yes, you're crazy.
Come on.
Okay.
Night.
There you are.
I have some amazing info for you, Delia Brown.
I already know.
Courtney kissed Jimmy Foreman by the cafeteria.
Please, that is old news.
They've been going out since third period.
I'm talking about that loser Ashlee Simpson backing out on my party.
-She did? -My mom's getting Jessica now which is way better anyway.
But it'll take a few weeks, so your bat mitzvah thing is back on.
Well, we were never actually gonna cancel it, but I'm happy you can come.
Yeah, definitely.
I just need you to do one small thing for me.
-Sure.
-You know Brittany? She needs to be uninvited.
Like ten minutes ago.
Why? You're friends with Brittany, and she's been my best friend forever.
Whatever.
She's evil.
She tried to kiss Micah Dyer.
Everyone knows I broke up with him two weeks ago which means he's off-limits for four more.
-Well, maybe Brittany didn't know.
-Rules are rules, Delia.
Ignorance is no excuse.
I mean, you can obviously invite her if you want.
But if you do, she'll be the only one there.
Your call.
What's wrong? We have to reschedule the C-section? No, no, this is not about Kathy.
Your tests came back, James.
I'm afraid it is much more serious than we thought.
You're in the advanced stages of a disease called aplastic anemia.
-Looks like you've had it for a while.
-So, what does that mean exactly? It means that your bone marrow is failing to produce red cells, white cells and platelets.
So you're far more susceptible to fatigue, bleeding and, most dangerously, infection.
Your body's fighting a losing battle.
Your chances of long-term survival are not very good.
I'm so sorry.
So, what, that's it? Then I just die? There are steps we can take to extend your life mainly by isolating you to prevent infection.
Are you crazy? The C-section's tomorrow.
I can't leave my wife.
She doesn't even know what's going on.
I know, I know.
And then what happens after the baby's born? I'm gonna check into a hospital for weeks? Kathy's not gonna be normal right away.
She's gonna need my help.
No, there's no way that I'm gonna go to a hospital.
Obviously, this is an overwhelming amount of information to take in and an incredibly difficult decision to make.
As your physician, I felt I had to suggest a treatment.
As a friend, I understand if you choose not to.
How'd this happen to me, Dr.
Abbott? I don't understand.
I'm about to be a father.
-I know.
-I'm having a little girl.
My life can't be ending.
My life's just starting.
Just starting now.
[LAUGHS.]
Do I have the touch or what? What's my score? One-eighty.
We should all forfeit.
I mean, you're killing us.
Know what I think? You and I need to join a bowling league, get matching shirts.
-Because that is every girl's dream.
-Hannah, are you in? I don't think I should be allowed to throw heavy objects right now.
It's just because you guys need to work on your form.
-Here, let me show you.
-Okay.
So, uh, Hannah, what do you like to do? I mean, since bowling is obviously not your thing.
I don't really have a thing.
-That's cool.
RElD: And: NlCK: I don't really have a thing either.
[RElD CHUCKLES.]
-Although I do like rugby.
-Mm-hm.
-Okay, who's next? -That would be me.
But if I get another gutter ball, I'm gonna kill myself.
Well, hey, I got a whole other bottle of pills that'll do the trick.
Just make sure you take enough.
Otherwise, it's really embarrassing.
Ha, ha.
HANNAH: That's it.
-Hannah-- -I'm sorry, but this is insane, okay? Are you honestly joking about your suicide attempt? Do you think that anyone here finds that funny? The point of tonight was to be supportive, but maybe you don't need our support since you're so fine with everything.
Which means, Amy, you can stop pretending this is a date.
And I don't need to be here at all, because, honestly, you know what? I have my own problems right now that I'd really like to deal with.
So I really don't need to be hanging out on a group-date-thing whatever.
I mean, no offense, Nick.
Sorry.
I'm just-- I'm really, really distraught.
I'll go make sure she's okay.
ROSE [ON PHONE.]
: Hello, dear.
-Please tell me you're in the car.
Oh, no, I'm still here.
We had a new exhibit coming, and there is so much work to do.
-When do you think you'll be home? -Oh, maybe an hour or two.
-Oh, if you're hungry, there's something-- -No, I'm not hungry, I'm just.
Oh, I've just had the most awful day.
ARVlN: Rose? HARRY: Remember James Carmody? -Kathy's husband? -Yeah, I'll be right there.
-What? -Oh, I'm sorry, dear.
Arvin was just calling for me.
What were you saying? Oh, never mind.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
I know you're busy.
I'll see you when you get home.
Okay.
[NlNA LAUGHS.]
JAKE: Two? -Yeah.
[DOORBELL RlNGS.]
-I got it.
-Okay.
Hey, Sam, did you feel that? I think it might be snowing.
-Ha, ha.
Gotcha.
SAM: Food fight.
[JAKE LAUGHS.]
Hey.
I think I finally have the perfect idea for Delia's party.
Put on the coffee, we're gonna have a strategy session.
Uh, actually, I can't right now.
We're about to watch a movie.
It's movie night, I forgot.
I'm sorry to interrupt.
Tell you what, come by tomorrow morning.
I'll get that cake that you love and we can hammer this out.
We haven't got a lot of time left.
Um, actually, I have to go to the office early tomorrow.
I got paperwork.
Oh.
-Yeah.
-Well, that's okay, I understand.
-I'm really sorry, Andy.
-No, no, it's fine.
I can figure this out on my own.
I'll see you later, Nin.
See you later, Andy.
You need some quarters? Uh, that's okay.
I, uh.
I got you an lCEE.
Oh, thanks.
Now, l, uh-- I know I'm not from this country, but, uh are blue raspberries really found in nature? [CHUCKLES.]
I don't think anything you can eat in a bowling alley is found in nature.
[BOTH CHUCKLE.]
I'm really sorry about tonight.
I, uh.
I'm just kind of going through some stuff right now in my life, obviously.
I'm not really known to, like, raise my voice like that.
No problem.
I was just happy to finally hear you talk.
Oh, really? [BOTH CHUCKLE.]
Nice introduction.
AMY: Is this part of the new Reid? -The new Reid? -Or whoever you're trying to be? [RElD CHUCKLES.]
I'm just trying not to be who I was before.
Then again, I have spent the last few days plastering on a fake smile and pretending to be happy, so I guess old habits die hard.
[COUGHlNG.]
While, uh, new habits are difficult to pick up.
-Oh, I'm sorry.
-For what? For asking you out.
I-- It was unfair of me.
I wanted to come tonight, Reid.
I was worried about you.
I know.
I just don't wanna be where I am.
I just wanna skip the next part and go straight to the end where I have everything figured out.
-You know you can't do that, right? -Yeah, but it's fun pretending.
[AMY CHUCKLES.]
You know, in a way it's kind of why I asked you out tonight.
You know, back in September, when we were hanging out or whatever was the last time that I remember being in a good place.
You know, med school hadn't brought me down.
I still had a future, still had hope.
Did you know that my boyfriend passed away a few years ago? At first I did everything I could not to deal.
I figured if I did that long enough, the pain would just go away.
Time heals all wounds, all that stuff, but, um the problem was, I didn't get any better and things just got darker and darker until I was almost where you were at last week.
That's when I realized the pain wouldn't go away unless I really dealt with it.
-How did you do it? -I stopped pretending that I was fine.
Started having all of the hard conversations.
Some of them were even with Colin, which made me feel kind of crazy but it worked.
And I finally came out of that place.
As great as that smile is of yours, Reid you can only hide behind it for so long.
I just think you need to find the pain, wherever yours is and just deal with it, you know? That's just my opinion.
Um, I'm gonna ride my bike to the park, if that's okay.
Sure.
And when you get back, we should talk about the bat mitzvah.
I think I came up with some great ideas.
We may even need a bouncer.
You don't have to worry about that.
Thalia's party got moved.
-lt did? Well, that's fantastic.
-She's not coming anyway.
-That's less fantastic.
-Not really.
She wanted me to uninvite Brittany, so I decided to uninvite her instead.
-And you're okay with all that? -Truthfully, it's kind of a relief.
This whole being-popular thing is a lot of work.
It seemed really cool in the beginning, but now I'm over it.
I may not have as many friends as I did before but I'll actually like the ones I do have.
Well, that sounds like a step in the right direction.
Yeah, but I'm glad I hung out with Thalia as much as I did.
Really? Why's that? At least now I know what kind of person I don't wanna be.
And until I figure out who I do wanna be, I'll just go back to being who I was.
I'm telling you, Dad, it's quite a process.
[CHUCKLES.]
If you can wait, I'll grab my bike and go to the park with you.
I don't think so.
There's a chance Jeff Berman's gonna be there.
No offense, but you're kind of a mojo killer.
Later, skater.
-How's she doing, she's all right? -Kathy's fine.
She'll be in recovery for two to three hours.
Then we'll start her on the antipsychotics.
-We'll bring her in here after that.
-Okay.
Thank you, doctor.
-Do you have a name for her? -Yeah, Lily.
Lily.
It's one of the last things that we, uh, talked about.
Kathy loves it.
Well, it's a beautiful name.
If you're not ready, we could bring her to the nursery.
You could visit her there.
No, no, I'm ready.
HARRY: Here you go.
Here you go.
Hi.
Hi.
Hi.
I could have loved her all this time.
These past nine months, I've been so angry, so resentful waiting for the pregnancy to be over with so I could have my life back.
And I spent so much time waiting for this part figuring I'd get to enjoy this part.
And now that I don't Iook what I wasted.
Missed the entire ride, and I lost the chance to love her, didn't l? Oh, God, I'd give anything to have that time back.
Nine months with my sweet little Lily.
Hmm? Yeah.
I would love you so much.
I would.
It's just so sudden.
I need more notice with stuff like this.
RElD: I already told you, I'll leave you last month's rent.
Not financial notice, emotional notice.
Breakups, goodbyes.
-Do you really have to go right now? -Pretty sure, yeah.
Amy said some interesting stuff the other night.
Oh, really? Well, leave it to my sister to completely ruin a good thing.
She's right, you know? Before I figure out what I'll do next, I gotta work through the stuff that got me here.
You know, like with my mom and Danny.
AMY: Truck's here.
You sure you know how to drive a U-Haul? Uh, no clue, but I figure I'll learn as I go.
That's my new motto.
-Okay, well, call when you get home.
-I will, I will.
Thank you.
You know, it's weird to think that less than a year ago I didn't even know what Everwood was.
Yeah, a lot of people say that.
Now that I do, it's like I can't imagine my life without it.
-Really gonna miss this place.
-Okay, stop, you're gonna make me cry.
[THUD.]
Hey.
Did I miss the hugs? No, you're just in time, actually.
I'm about to take off.
-How was, uh, New York? -Good.
Yeah, you know, busy.
I can't believe you're moving out.
Yup, hitting the open road, out there on my own, wind in my hair.
All right, it's just to Denver, but still.
Like your hair could have any movement with that amount of crap in it.
Okay, time to go.
Bright, help me carry.
Really feel like Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz right now.
And you wonder why we always think you're gay.
I don't know what to say to you, Ephram.
How do you say goodbye to someone who literally saved your life? You don't have to.
We'll be in touch.
What do you have in here, weights? What else would it be? [SOFT GUlTAR MUSlC PLAYlNG ON STEREO.]
Bluebird sitting on my window There you are.
I've been looking all over.
Goodness, I didn't realize we were doing this tonight.
-We don't have to.
If you're not ready.
-Oh, no, no, that's not it.
I just had some paperwork I was gonna do, but I guess I can spare 20 minutes.
I don't want 20 minutes, Rose.
I mean, if now is a bad time, we can do it tomorrow or whenever you do have time.
-What's the matter? -Nothing's the matter, Rose.
I don't wanna rush anything anymore.
I feel like we've spent the last seven months doing that and what do we have to show for it? I don't think I know what you mean.
Well, we spent seven months trying to adopt a child.
Now, in all that time, we were together every day.
We shared almost every single meal.
We never once talked about anything other than that adoption.
Well.
-lt seemed important at the time.
-Yes, it did.
-Well, of course it did, but-- -But we didn't wind up getting the baby.
So now you're upset that we wasted all this time? No, no, no.
That's not it at all, no.
I'm upset that we wasted a golden opportunity.
We were so wrapped up in the meetings and paperwork, social workers not only did we forget to enjoy the journey honey, we forgot to enjoy each other.
You're right.
We did.
And now we're back to our busy lives again.
I miss you, Rose.
Oh, Harold.
So I know packing up this room was never something that we ever wanted to do.
But it's the last step of the journey.
It's one I wanna share with you.
[KNOCK ON DOOR.]
Come in, Amy, it's open.
It's not Amy.
-Oh.
Hey.
-Hi.
Is Reid already gone? Yeah, he left a little while ago.
Shoot, I thought he was leaving tomorrow morning.
BRlGHT: Yeah, he could only get the truck today, I guess.
He, uh, told me to say goodbye.
Okay.
-So I should just-- -No, God, don't go.
Hang out.
-You know what? I'm just gonna go.
-Wait, hold on.
Uh.
How was, uh--? How was bowling the other night? Did you have a good time? You really wanna hear about my date? Well, I mean, not really, but if we're gonna be friends again we're gonna have to start somewhere, so.
-We're gonna be friends again, right? -I don't know.
Hannah.
It's not because I'm mad, because that's not it, it's just.
I don't know how to just be friends with you anymore, Bright.
-I mean, I know we started off that way-- -Which is why we can go back to that.
We can at least go back to that.
Hannah, you gotta give me something here.
I know I don't deserve it.
I'm not saying I deserve it.
I don't.
But I can't imagine my life without you in it.
I know, I can't either.
I just, uh.
I don't wanna talk to you about dates.
I don't wanna hear about your dates.
I haven't been on any.
I don't even wanna go on dates.
But you will, and if we're talking all the time -I'm gonna be waiting for that to happen.
-lt doesn't have to be like that.
-We can't keep having this conversation.
-Okay, yes, you're absolutely right.
I think I just-- I really need to figure out how to move on with my life right now.
Without you.
That was great.
Feels like we haven't had a date in forever.
That's probably because we haven't.
-I'm gonna be better at that from now on.
-Yeah, me too.
-Something happening in there, smiley? -Uh.
Yeah, kind of.
Can we sit down for a second? -What's the matter? -Nothing.
Everything's fine.
I just.
I just need to talk to you about something.
Okay, see, now you're scaring me.
-I'm sorry.
-Okay.
Ha, ha.
I got nervous all of a sudden, but here it goes.
My partners in L.
A.
got the funding for my program and they're interested in moving forward.
You mean with the support groups? That's amazing.
That's good news, right? Yeah, it's great news.
But to them moving forward would also mean moving.
Okay, they've got it all mapped out and there's a million little details I can fill you in on later but the big ones are they want me to go to school to get my Master's and they want me to expand.
And they want both of those things to happen in L.
A which would mean moving.
-Wow.
-Yeah.
Well, I don't know what to say.
I mean, I know this means a lot to you.
So if you feel that you need to move-- No, no, no, no, no.
Ha, ha.
No, not just me.
Us.
-Us? -Yes.
I don't wanna do this without you.
I don't wanna do anything without you, Nina.
That's the whole point.
I want you and Sam to move to Los Angeles with me.
[ENGLlSH - US - SDH.]
