A Million Little Things (2018) s05e01 Episode Script
The Last Dance
You're pregnant.
You're gonna be a mom.
You're gonna be a dad.
Previously on
"A Million Little Things"
Maybe we could do dinner
sometime with Theo.
You know, whenever you're
ready to introduce him to Anna.
I don't think that's gonna
be happening anytime soon.
You have the right to remain silent.
Anything you say can and
will be used against you
in a court of law.
We can't be here all night.
Florence and I have plans later.
We do?
Oh, we do.
Yale is 2 1/2 hours away.
And the second you need to
come home, you come on home.
I gotta show you something first.
Gary, we found another mass.
In which breast?
Neither.
It's in your lung.
Hey, pal. It's me.
Your dad.
And Mom wanted me to
make you these videos
just in case
I don't get better.
It's funny, one day,
this little black dot
is going to grow up to wreck
your prized vintage automobile.
It was an '82 Buick.
It had 300,000 miles
and duct tape for arm rests.
Dad, you have to let this go.
I loved that car.
Have you told Danny you're
gonna be a father yet?
Yeah. Maggie and I called
him and Sophie this morning.
I like that kid.
Is he still seeing
that, uh, Milo fellow?
Yeah.
I bet he's gonna have an easier time
getting Milo pregnant
than you did getting Maggie pregnant.
Oh, my.
I guess I'm not going
to need a paternity test
to know that this is your father.
Yep.
And I got his mother pregnant
the old-fashioned way
- Eww
- Through sexual intercourse
and, uh, a little begging.
No, no!
I was just starting
to not feel nauseous.
There you go.
I know you don't want it, but here.
- I got you one, too.
- Oh, thank you!
Uh-huh.
Hey, uh, Kevin, you think
I could have another
one of these for later?
Dad, you're not even
supposed to have one for now.
Yeah, sure thing, Mr. Mendez.
You gotta love hospitals.
All the free stuff.
Yeah, I don't know if free gelatin
is worth going through chemo,
but, wow Look at that.
I'm I'm happy for you, Pop.
Hold that thought.
Ah, I got to go feed the meter.
Hey, Pop.
Yeah?
Thanks for being here with me.
I know it's not easy
to pretend that all of this is normal.
However you want to do this,
that's how we're gonna
do it, alright, mijo?
I got you.
What are you doing here?
Oh! Mendez.
Dude.
You left this memory card in my camera.
I assume you don't want
to talk about any of this,
which you don't have to,
but I'll be sitting here,
catching up on my celebrity gossip.
And, if you're hungry,
well, that's Coley's Italian Beef,
which I think beats
the hell out of a dessert
that's main ingredient is horse hooves.
Shh!
Did you know Pete Davidson
was tapping Kate Beckinsale?
Well, hold up. I don't think
this is the freshest news.
If you're gonna show up unannounced
with Coley's Italian Beef,
the least you could do
is bring extra gravy.
What up?! What up?!
Got you extra gravy.
While I was wheeling in,
a little of it spilled
on my italian beef.
Who-ha!
We know about Gary.
Thank you.
It was a beautiful service.
It really was, and I
don't like funerals.
So you're the one.
That's the kind of joke Gary would make.
Yeah, not today.
Hi.
Oh, Danny, your speech was so moving.
He would've loved it.
It's the least I could do.
He was such a big part of
me coming out at school.
That is exactly why
I wanted you to speak.
You did a beautiful job.
My dad would've been very proud of you.
Anna sends her condolences.
She wishes she could be here,
but, you know, obviously
Well, that's very sweet, Ed.
We should have had the
caterers bake her a cake
with a rock hammer in it.
She could have Shawshanked
her way outta that place.
Well, uh
I should probably go get some food
for my baby mama here.
She hasn't eaten in seven minutes.
Boy.
How's he holding up?
You know, how he always does
By making a ton of jokes.
I think he's just still in shock.
It was so sudden.
I mean, Javier went to
sleep and just never woke up.
That story does not help my insomnia.
He loved you, Leo.
And not just because you're
a terrible poker player.
He was a good man.
Thanks for coming.
Well, well, well, we meet again.
Yeah, but, this time,
we're eating bagels
for your dad, not mine.
Wow!
I am so sorry.
No, that was a good joke.
I've taught you well, Daniel-san.
I meant what I said at the service.
I don't think I
would've felt comfortable
coming out at school
if your dad hadn't told me
about that guy in the photo.
I'd never heard that story.
Me neither, not 'til he told Danny.
I always thought the guy in the photo
was his platoon buddy, Douglas.
Turns out it was Douglas' boyfriend.
This guy named Gene.
You know, I always wanted to
take my dad to meet him, but
Nope, not doing this.
Hey, we know what it's like
to suddenly lose your dad.
Yeah, but I'm a 38-year-old man.
I know who I am. You
You two had to do it when you were kids.
Yeah, well the only reason
why we got through it
is because we leaned on you.
And now it's your turn to lean on us.
Well, you're certainly big enough.
Huh.
You know, I'd like to think that,
uh, somewhere in Heaven,
our dads are having lunch right now,
fighting over the check.
Well, you'd be wrong about that.
My dad's never fought
over a check in his life,
and he's certainly not
going to start in Heaven.
Hey, yo, Mendez, I know
Eduardo's afternoon is full,
but because I'm a much
more considerate friend
- Oh!
- I cleared my entire day.
Thought you and me could hang out.
Actually,
if you really want to make me happy,
why don't you go spend
some time with your dad?
Oh, I'd much rather go
see your cancer doctor.
Dude, look, at least
come with me, please.
Please? Just so that we
don't kill each other.
No.
If Ed's love life has
taught us anything,
y-you don't want witnesses.
True story.
Besides, I got to give this
one another driving lesson.
We're hitting the highways today.
Gary, no, you you just
said goodbye to your dad.
I mean, you don't need
to spend your afternoon
teaching me how to do
a a three-point turn on a highway.
Okay, first lesson, don't do that.
Don't Don't ever do that.
No, I am Mr. Miyagi to
your Daniel-san, alright?
I got a whole afternoon planned for us.
It's either that, or I teach you
how to catch flies
with chopsticks, right?
We're outta here.
Okay, bye, Soph. Bye, Gina.
- See you later!
- Bye!
- Ahh!
- Drive safe!
I may be eating for two,
but I am peeing for seven.
Did Rome and Eddie head out?
- Yeah.
- Oh!
Then it's just us.
Great.
Let's go.
Wait, where are we going?
Well, between Gary being
sick and Javier passing,
you haven't registered
for baby gifts yet,
which is the only good
part about being pregnant.
With, uh, everything going on,
I-I just haven't had the time.
Well, you know, people want
to buy you expensive stuff.
So what do you say?
I say let them buy me expensive stuff.
Oh, you know what?
I'm gonna pee one last time.
This one's because I'm excited.
Hello.
Wow! Wow!
Welcome back.
Thank you.
- Hi. Hi.
- Hi.
I missed you so much.
Not me. I mean, I
I loved it in there.
In fact, unlock the doors.
- I'm going back.
- Okay.
All I want to do is
go back to my place and have a shower
without anyone watching me.
Well, that sorta steps on
my plans for us this evening.
- Oh, really?
- Yeah.
Well, I'm willing to work with you.
Let's go, driver,
'cause someone owes me a conjugal visit.
Alright.
You don't have to tell me twice.
Oh, well, I guess
we're just gonna to
have to eat that one.
I guess we are.
- For you.
- Thank you.
Where are they from, anyway?
They're so delicious.
My mom sent them from France,
sort of a little care package for Gary.
Mm! That's sweet.
Oh. You want this blue cheese?
I definitely do not.
It's too bad that, because of Charlie,
she couldn't fly in.
Honestly, I think she was happy
to skip another funeral.
Hmm.
How are you doing?
Honestly, setting all
this up today for Gary
gave me something to do.
'Cause my friends all being in college
and the band is still trying to make it,
it feels a little bit
like my life is on hold.
Hmm. I've been there.
How about you? How you
doing with Tyrell being gone?
Oh.
It's harder than I thought it would be.
Yeah.
And now that Val and I
have the second truck,
I have so much more time by
myself to worry about him.
Like, is he eating?
Oh, come on, you know he is.
Is he showering?
I hope he is?
Oh, and I hope he has shower shoes.
I visited Tennille at Harvard,
and I cannot unsee what I
saw on that bathroom floor.
Eww!
You know what?
I'm gonna make Tyrell a care package
with shower shoes.
Wanna help me?
Absolutely.
We can start with this.
For him to eat,
or as an air freshener for his room?
- 'Cause
- No.
It's got to smell better
- than what's going on in his room.
- Oh, my God.
We've been on the road for a while.
You want to turn around?
First of all, slow down.
- Okay.
- Secondly, no.
I need you to help
me do something first.
Do what?
Alright, listen very carefully.
There's a bank in North Andover.
It's getting a large sum of money today.
You and I are gonna hold it up.
But you have to write the ransom note
because my handwriting's a mess.
What?!
What?!
What?!
Fine.
We won't rob a bank.
Because you don't like to have fun
and you don't like great things
and you don't like money.
Oh, my God!
Do you remember how mad your dad got
when you stole those,
uh What were they
"Star Wars" stickers?
Yeah, I do remember.
Um, I was the one he was mad at,
which is crazy, 'cause every kid
steals something at some point.
I didn't.
Come on, you never stole anything?
Not even, like, change
from the take-a-penny,
leave-a-penny?
And break the trust of a cashier
who was just trying
to help me walk around
without 98 cents' worth
of loose change in my pocket?
No, I did not.
Gary Mendez, I-I find that
completely unacceptable.
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Where are we going?
To finish your childhood.
Thanks for coming back. I'm sorry
Oh, Rome.
Who did you think I was?
- Florence. She just left all upset.
- What'd you do?
- Why do you assume I did something?
- Because I've met you.
And you just answered the
door saying, "I'm sorry,"
thinking it was your girlfriend.
What happened, Pop?!
I might have maybe forgotten
it was her birthday.
Oh, man.
How mad was she?
She wasn't mad, exactly.
She was more just
crying a lot.
Dad, that's T-that's so much worse!
I know what it is!
Okay, okay!
We just got to
We got to fix it.
You gotta buy her a
gift or something, yeah.
Now, w-what is
What is something that she really likes?
She loves that Keanu Reeves fella.
Can't stop talking about him.
Okay, so, maybe we We buy her a
"Matrix" box set.
You know what's funny?
Mom used to love "The Matrix," too.
That's right.
It was your mother
that loved "The Matrix."
I think we have the box set.
Should I regift it?
Flowers it is. Come
on, Pops, I'm driving.
Wow.
What is this? Why are we doing this?
You see that store?
You need to go in there
and steal something.
What?!
No, no, no.
- No, I'm not doing it.
- You need to.
So that, one day, when your kid does it,
hopefully, you'll go
a little easier on them.
There's no time for this.
I told you, I-I have the
whole afternoon planned for us.
- Come on.
- Okay, well, then
you better hurry.
Young Dan takes a stand, huh?
Alright.
Just keep the car running.
Thank you for suggesting we change.
When I wear all black now,
I feel like a bowling ball.
A cute bowling ball.
Oh, baby monitor done.
Wait, how do you know
that's the best one?
It's not. It's the most expensive one,
which you can exchange for the best one.
Oh, you're good.
Wow, cute!
Oh, do I need a wipe warmer?
I don't but I need
someone to buy it for me,
so I can exchange it for other stuff.
You're getting it now.
Yeah.
Okay, okay, go. Go, go, go, go, go!
W-W-Wait, wait, wait!
Check your mirrors.
Okay, now, go! Go! Go, go, go!
Stop!
Okay, now go. Go! Go, go, go, go!
And they haven't settled on a name, yet,
but if it's a girl, Maggie really wants
to name it Tallulah, so
Gary is praying for a boy.
Oh, Tallulah, like Tallulah Bankhead.
I don't know who that is, Pop.
She's a famous actress from the '40s!
So, if it's a boy,
what are they thinking?
Well, Gary really likes Maverick.
'Cause of the movie?!
Strangely, no.
Hello, Florence.
It's come to my attention that
it's someone special's birthday.
Don't play coy, Dad.
Happy Birthday.
Oh, Walter, they're beautiful!
Just like you.
May we come in?
Of course.
Thanks, Dad.
I guess your dad told
you what happened.
Oh, just the highlights
That he's a little
rusty when it comes to
dating etiquette.
Yeah Uh, Walter,
would you mind putting
these in some water?
The vase is under the sink.
- I'm on it.
- Thank you.
- About this morning
- Oh, he felt terrible.
And I didn't want to
make him feel any worse.
Then I'm just gonna leave you two to do
what it is that you do.
Just want to put it out there
that I already have a little brother.
No, Rome, listen.
I've been meaning to call you,
but with Gary being sick and
And his dad passing,
there wasn't a good time.
What is it?
The thing is, lately,
your dad has been having
some memory problems.
Really? I-I hadn't noticed that.
I mean, maybe a little, but
we're all getting older
No. No, i-i-it's more than that.
The other day, he was
telling me a story.
Soon as he finished,
he started telling me
the same story all over again.
The man loves the
sound of his own voice.
Rome
I am serious.
I think you need to get
your dad checked out.
He's still young.
We all forget things, even me.
Sometimes, I'm halfway
through my teaching day
before I realize I forgot to tie my tie.
Pop, is everything okay in there?!
Never better!
I though some lemonade might be nice.
I dropped an ice cube on the floor,
but don't worry I put it in my glass.
Or did I?
Wh-What about the flowers, Pop?
Flowers?
Right!
Where's the vase?
Under the sink.
I'm on it.
He's just tired.
I'm sure he just needs
to get more sleep.
You know how crazy I am about your dad.
And I'm so touched that he
He brought flowers and
But the reason I got upset earlier,
it wasn't because he forgot my birthday.
It's because I can't do this again.
My late husband suffered from dementia
for the last eight years of his life.
And meeting your dad
felt like a fresh start
after losing Bennett,
like the world was
opening up for me again.
Today is only my 58th birthday.
I love your dad.
I do.
And
I will always keep an
eye on him, but I-I-I
I can't take this journey with him.
So, I'm gonna need you to leave us,
so that I can speak to him alone.
Walter
I need to talk to you about something.
- Is it about the flowers?
- No.
It's not the flowers.
Never mind that.
- Hey, you'd fit
- That worked.
- What the heck is this thing?
- Oh, it's, uh,
like a coffee machine for your baby,
but instead of using a
coffee pod, you use formula.
That is ridiculous.
And it's $300?!
Oh, right. Mm!
- Yeah, that makes sense.
- Oh, my God.
What is it?
It's this gossipy mom
from Theo's school.
She found out about me and Greta,
and I'm sure she's telling everyone.
Just act like we don't see her.
So, how is all of that going,
introducing your new
life to your old life?
Well, I'll let you know when I do it.
I just
was never really one to like attention.
And I don't know it
just doesn't seem like
anyone else's business?
I get it.
You should be able to
do what makes you happy
without feeling everyone's judgment.
I'll take her.
Ah!
Do I put in two pairs of
extra headphones or three?
I think two should do it.
Alright.
Yeah.
Good & Plenty?
Are kids still eating this?
Oh, totally, yes!
Me and my dad used
to always share a box.
I'd take the pinks.
He'd eat the white ones.
Love that.
And this bag of cheddar popcorn?
That's for us.
Love you.
Deodorant.
Oh, you bought Tyrell deodorant?
He can't get that himself?
Can he? Yeah. Will he?
No idea.
In fact, I'm putting in the
third pair of headphones.
What are you thinking about?
Okay, this is gonna sound weird,
but I was just realizing that
I don't think anyone's ever
bought me deodorant before.
Uh, not sure that's
something to be sad about.
Yeah, I know, I just
I was remembering this
one time when I was 11,
and I was about to
go off to soccer camp,
and, yeah, thought it was time for me
to start using a few swipes.
Smart.
Dad, he he was so busy with work,
and he and my mom were fighting a lot.
I didn't want to cause
any more problems,
so I walked all the way
to the CVS in Newton Centre
by myself to get some.
Sometimes it
just feels like
Like you didn't always have
parents to fall back on?
- Oh, go on, take it.
- No.
I can call Tyrell back later.
You You've been
talking about him all day.
Look, I'll just be here,
eating your half of the cheddar popcorn.
Fair enough.
Hey, Tyrell.
Alright, pull over here.
You're going to buy drugs.
Are you gonna tell me
where we are?
We are
in front of a house.
Film me.
Please.
Okay.
Hello, child of mine.
Today's lesson is very simple
Never put off doing something now,
thinking that you'll
have the opportunity
to do it later.
That's why your cousin
Danny just made me shoplift.
We're editing that part out.
Okay.
It's why
Mom and I had you.
This is
something I wanted to do months ago.
But I put it off, thinking I had time.
So
always seize the day.
Alright, shut it off.
And, uh, driving tip
Once you reach your destination,
you generally want to turn the car off.
Yeah. No, I was going to.
No, you were. You just
opened your door first.
It's perfect, Josh. Thanks again.
I will leave the keys in
the mailbox when I lock up.
- Sounds good. Bye.
- Okay, thanks.
That was nice of him to
let you break your lease.
He actually thanked me.
He said he could rent this place out
for so much more than what I was paying.
Oh.
I can't believe I'm doing this.
You sure you want to?
Yeah.
Alright, then, let's pack up the car.
Load me up!
I'm a human dolly.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Who are the Grants?
Is that a new wallet? It's nice.
It's my father's.
Please hold all questions
until the end of the tour.
Can I help you?
Are you Gene Grant?
We're here because of Douglas.
My pop says that your picture
was the last thing he was
He was looking at before the shots came.
So I just
I wanted you to know, Gene
You were the last person
he was thinking about.
I didn't know Douglas
died 'til it hit the paper.
I knew his brother,
but I'd only seen his
folks from a distance.
Obviously, they didn't know about us.
M-Maybe you could tell us
a funny story about Douglas.
I mean, we we could all
use a laugh am I right?
Well, the, uh night
before Douglas shipped out,
there was a carnival in town,
and he wanted to win me
this giant stuffed elephant
to have to think of him
while he was in 'Nam.
It was just some cheap thing
worth a couple of bucks back then, tops.
He spent so much money
on those baseballs.
Douglas was very good at hiding things,
- except when he threw.
- Oh, boy.
You, too.
Oh, we we laughed so
hard, tears were running
They were running down our faces.
Did he win you the elephant?
- No.
- No, Dan.
No.
But
I did get this.
There was a, uh,
there was a photo booth, you know,
and we knew we couldn't
take our picture together
in case his folks saw it, but
Oh, wow.
Yeah.
Look at that.
Yeah.
You know, Gene, if Douglas
hadn't done what he did,
my dad wouldn't have come
home and I wouldn't be here.
I wanna show you another photo.
This is my son.
- Wait, i-it's a boy?
- Shh!
Do not tell Maggie that I told you that.
Congratulations.
Wow, your dad must be so happy.
His dad just passed away.
The funeral was today.
I'm sorry.
He really wanted you to know that story.
I found your address
a couple months ago,
and I was going to surprise
him and bring him here
so that he could tell you himself.
But, uh, I, uh
I-I-I-I waited too long.
Hey, why don't you tell us
a funny story about your dad?
Yeah, I got plenty of those.
Well, uh, unlike some people I know,
I did not shoplift as a child.
Wow!
But there was, uh, one time
I had a book report due,
and And my dad took me, uh,
to get some notecards
and a box to put them in.
And I didn't think the
box was the right size,
so I-I jammed the
cards in there to check.
And then we went and took
them up to the register,
and the clerk didn't realize
the cards were still in the box,
and we were in a hurry
'cause it was snowing.
Bottom line We get home,
we realize the cards are still in there.
We didn't pay for the cards.
So I tell my dad, "We got to go back.
We got to go back and pay for these."
And he looks at me, and he says
"Mijo, what are you talking about?
It's 79 cents' worth of notecards.
Who cares? Nobody cares."
But he saw my face,
and he knew that I cared.
He He put his work boots back on,
and we trudged through the snow
all the way back to Coolidge Corner.
He was complaining the whole time.
But on the way back
we had the most epic snowball fight
of all time.
Father versus son,
"Beyond Thunderdome."
I mean, we're just pelting each other
with snowballs, right?
And one of my dad's
snowballs sails wide right
and splat!
Nails the mailman in the face.
And we look at each other.
We're like, "Holy crap!"
Because the dude is huge!
He must have played college
football or something.
He puts down his bag
he picks up a snowball
and he just goes for it.
He's drilling us.
We're getting absolutely annihilated
by this giant postman,
and it was the best.
I wish my dad had been
here, but, trust me
Having Danny here
is the next best thing.
Yeah, Gene, thank you for your service.
Uh, I didn't fight in the war.
That's not what I mean.
I'm in high school, and I'm gay.
And I'm out, and you
absolutely fought for me.
So, thank you.
Okay, come on. Let's go!
Aw. Oh. Oh!
That's okay. I got it, bud.
Here you go, bud.
You take the bunny.
You make some faces at me?
What about this one?
Say, "Thank you, Kova."
We need to get home for naptime.
- Come on. Let's go.
- Bye!
Thank you. Good listening.
You are gonna be such a great mom.
Oh, wow, that means a
lot, coming from you.
You're an incredible mom.
Ohh, well, I don't know.
I've made my share of mistakes.
Yeah, sure, but the way
that you've handled them
is t-truly remarkable.
And you also work full time.
How do you do it? You
make it seem so easy.
"Seem" is the operative word here.
Daddy!
Hey!
Hi.
Ready?
One, two, yay!
I'm really scared.
I'm telling you, you're gonna be great.
Oh, not about that.
I mean, yes, about that, but, also
I need Gary to be okay.
Here.
Here.
Oh, thank you.
Oh, wow!
The warm ones really are nice.
Oh, Maggie
I saw you fight cancer
and be so resilient
when all these things were
happening to your body.
If any couple can beat
this, it's you two.
So, we'll see what
the doctor says tomorrow.
Whatever happens, you have a team
of great moms and dads surrounding you,
and we are not going anywhere.
Oh, hey.
How's Tyrell doing?
He's good. Yeah.
He had an interesting idea, actually.
I was telling him how Val and I are
on separate trucks during the day now,
and that sometimes I get lonely.
Uh, and he thought maybe you would like
to take his place on the food truck.
Me?
Yeah, I know you're still
playing with your band
and I don't want to
take you away from that,
but it's It's just day shifts,
and we could make
a schedule that works for you.
'Cause I-I could use the extra
help, if you're interested.
I'm interested.
Okay.
Was that really Tyrell's idea?
Nope. It was mine.
The kid can't even buy
his own shower shoes.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
Also
deodorant is mandatory on the truck.
It is a very small space.
Don't say I never gave you anything.
How you doing, Pop?
I'll be okay.
I wonder if that UPS woman is single.
And why not?
She's always bringing you gifts, right?
I'm gonna ask her what her name is.
Start slow.
I like it.
Speaking of names
Earlier today, I was telling you
what Maggie wants to name
the baby if it's a girl.
You remember what it was?
Are you testing me?
No, I just just just
want to see if you remember.
I'm not taking your stupid test.
- Dad
- I'm not taking your stupid test!
- Dad
- I'm not doing it!
You know what?
I went to church every Sunday for you
until I was 30.
I went to college, never did no drugs.
Hell, I even paid for the flowers
you gave to Florence today.
You're telling me you can't
do one little test for me?
Come on, Pop. Take a deep breath.
Get some oxygen to the brain
and see if you can remember.
Please, just try.
I remember it's the same name
as a famous movie star from the '40s.
Yes, that's right!
What was the actress' last name again?
I don't remember.
Then what the hell are
you giving me crap for?
I love you, Pop.
You annoy the hell
out of me, but I love you.
I was just going to
tell you the same thing.
Okay. Okay.
Wow!
- Aah!
- Told you it would all fit.
Ah!
Ah!
You almost inherited
a sewing machine and a flat iron.
Well, you say the word, and I will move
all of your stuff into my place.
Eddie
I know.
You can't.
Believe me, I would love nothing more
than for you to come with me.
But seeing how hard it's been
for you to be without Charlie,
I could never ask you
to do that with Theo.
You text your sister,
let her know you're on your way?
Yeah. But by the time I get to Akron,
she'll be fast asleep.
But you'll wake up in Ohio.
Where, when I see people whispering,
I won't wonder if they're talking
about what Peter did
and how I must've known.
- I should go.
- Okay.
- Allow me.
- Thank you.
Of course.
She's full.
This is exactly the way you looked
the first time I saw
you in that parking lot.
You
were the only good thing
about this last year.
This is the first time I
have ever been with someone
where I felt like I could be
exactly who I want to be.
Eddie, know that not
once in this relationship
did you let me down.
Thank you.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay, let me look at your file.
Gary
I am really happy
how your body is responding
to the Tagrisso treatment.
Things couldn't be better.
Oh, God!
- Oh, my gosh.
- This is great.
Sorry, uh, about bringing
an entourage, Doc.
It's just our Our friend group are
Well, they're very invested
in each other's lives.
S-So, does this mean that Gary's cured?
No, Ed, it doesn't.
When a cancer like this comes back,
it is not curable.
But it is treatable.
And as I said, I'm very hopeful
with the things I've seen today.
But Gary's right,
he's going to have cancer
for the rest of his life.
And we are going to do everything we can
to make sure the rest of that life
- is as long as possible.
- Mm-hmm.
Okay, enough of the long faces.
Look at this.
These are photos of all the kids
my patients have had
since being diagnosed.
Now, there's no reason to believe
that a photo of you with
your child won't be up there.
And with a bit of luck,
a photo of you and your kid's kid.
I love that plan, Doc.
I do.
I promised Katherine this
wouldn't be an all-day thing,
but I have one more request.
Uh, for future reference,
when I'm coming in
Uh, for results and
you know that they're good,
maybe you could have your nurse, uh,
slip some of that to me on the phone
when I'm making the appointment
because I've been crapping
my pants all morning.
And and And we're gonna have
plenty of that soon enough,
when this guy comes along.
Wait, did he say He said guy?
He Did A-Are we
Are we having a boy?
No, not I didn't mean
"guy." I meant like, "Guys!"
No, no. Are we having
- No, it's a
- Are we having a baby boy?
- We're all gonna
- We are having a boy.
- We're having a boy!
- Ohh!
- Hello!
- Yes!
We can still name him Tallulah,
- if you if you want.
- No. No.
- We can't do the Tallulah.
- Keep in mind
that Mavericks don't get picked on.
- Not the Tallulah.
- Yay!
Not the Tallulah.
Boy. Oh!
That it is. That is strong.
"Maverick Mendez" has
alliteration, though.
That is hot. That is hot.
- Man, I love you.
- Oh, buddy.
You're gonna be a mom.
You're gonna be a dad.
Previously on
"A Million Little Things"
Maybe we could do dinner
sometime with Theo.
You know, whenever you're
ready to introduce him to Anna.
I don't think that's gonna
be happening anytime soon.
You have the right to remain silent.
Anything you say can and
will be used against you
in a court of law.
We can't be here all night.
Florence and I have plans later.
We do?
Oh, we do.
Yale is 2 1/2 hours away.
And the second you need to
come home, you come on home.
I gotta show you something first.
Gary, we found another mass.
In which breast?
Neither.
It's in your lung.
Hey, pal. It's me.
Your dad.
And Mom wanted me to
make you these videos
just in case
I don't get better.
It's funny, one day,
this little black dot
is going to grow up to wreck
your prized vintage automobile.
It was an '82 Buick.
It had 300,000 miles
and duct tape for arm rests.
Dad, you have to let this go.
I loved that car.
Have you told Danny you're
gonna be a father yet?
Yeah. Maggie and I called
him and Sophie this morning.
I like that kid.
Is he still seeing
that, uh, Milo fellow?
Yeah.
I bet he's gonna have an easier time
getting Milo pregnant
than you did getting Maggie pregnant.
Oh, my.
I guess I'm not going
to need a paternity test
to know that this is your father.
Yep.
And I got his mother pregnant
the old-fashioned way
- Eww
- Through sexual intercourse
and, uh, a little begging.
No, no!
I was just starting
to not feel nauseous.
There you go.
I know you don't want it, but here.
- I got you one, too.
- Oh, thank you!
Uh-huh.
Hey, uh, Kevin, you think
I could have another
one of these for later?
Dad, you're not even
supposed to have one for now.
Yeah, sure thing, Mr. Mendez.
You gotta love hospitals.
All the free stuff.
Yeah, I don't know if free gelatin
is worth going through chemo,
but, wow Look at that.
I'm I'm happy for you, Pop.
Hold that thought.
Ah, I got to go feed the meter.
Hey, Pop.
Yeah?
Thanks for being here with me.
I know it's not easy
to pretend that all of this is normal.
However you want to do this,
that's how we're gonna
do it, alright, mijo?
I got you.
What are you doing here?
Oh! Mendez.
Dude.
You left this memory card in my camera.
I assume you don't want
to talk about any of this,
which you don't have to,
but I'll be sitting here,
catching up on my celebrity gossip.
And, if you're hungry,
well, that's Coley's Italian Beef,
which I think beats
the hell out of a dessert
that's main ingredient is horse hooves.
Shh!
Did you know Pete Davidson
was tapping Kate Beckinsale?
Well, hold up. I don't think
this is the freshest news.
If you're gonna show up unannounced
with Coley's Italian Beef,
the least you could do
is bring extra gravy.
What up?! What up?!
Got you extra gravy.
While I was wheeling in,
a little of it spilled
on my italian beef.
Who-ha!
We know about Gary.
Thank you.
It was a beautiful service.
It really was, and I
don't like funerals.
So you're the one.
That's the kind of joke Gary would make.
Yeah, not today.
Hi.
Oh, Danny, your speech was so moving.
He would've loved it.
It's the least I could do.
He was such a big part of
me coming out at school.
That is exactly why
I wanted you to speak.
You did a beautiful job.
My dad would've been very proud of you.
Anna sends her condolences.
She wishes she could be here,
but, you know, obviously
Well, that's very sweet, Ed.
We should have had the
caterers bake her a cake
with a rock hammer in it.
She could have Shawshanked
her way outta that place.
Well, uh
I should probably go get some food
for my baby mama here.
She hasn't eaten in seven minutes.
Boy.
How's he holding up?
You know, how he always does
By making a ton of jokes.
I think he's just still in shock.
It was so sudden.
I mean, Javier went to
sleep and just never woke up.
That story does not help my insomnia.
He loved you, Leo.
And not just because you're
a terrible poker player.
He was a good man.
Thanks for coming.
Well, well, well, we meet again.
Yeah, but, this time,
we're eating bagels
for your dad, not mine.
Wow!
I am so sorry.
No, that was a good joke.
I've taught you well, Daniel-san.
I meant what I said at the service.
I don't think I
would've felt comfortable
coming out at school
if your dad hadn't told me
about that guy in the photo.
I'd never heard that story.
Me neither, not 'til he told Danny.
I always thought the guy in the photo
was his platoon buddy, Douglas.
Turns out it was Douglas' boyfriend.
This guy named Gene.
You know, I always wanted to
take my dad to meet him, but
Nope, not doing this.
Hey, we know what it's like
to suddenly lose your dad.
Yeah, but I'm a 38-year-old man.
I know who I am. You
You two had to do it when you were kids.
Yeah, well the only reason
why we got through it
is because we leaned on you.
And now it's your turn to lean on us.
Well, you're certainly big enough.
Huh.
You know, I'd like to think that,
uh, somewhere in Heaven,
our dads are having lunch right now,
fighting over the check.
Well, you'd be wrong about that.
My dad's never fought
over a check in his life,
and he's certainly not
going to start in Heaven.
Hey, yo, Mendez, I know
Eduardo's afternoon is full,
but because I'm a much
more considerate friend
- Oh!
- I cleared my entire day.
Thought you and me could hang out.
Actually,
if you really want to make me happy,
why don't you go spend
some time with your dad?
Oh, I'd much rather go
see your cancer doctor.
Dude, look, at least
come with me, please.
Please? Just so that we
don't kill each other.
No.
If Ed's love life has
taught us anything,
y-you don't want witnesses.
True story.
Besides, I got to give this
one another driving lesson.
We're hitting the highways today.
Gary, no, you you just
said goodbye to your dad.
I mean, you don't need
to spend your afternoon
teaching me how to do
a a three-point turn on a highway.
Okay, first lesson, don't do that.
Don't Don't ever do that.
No, I am Mr. Miyagi to
your Daniel-san, alright?
I got a whole afternoon planned for us.
It's either that, or I teach you
how to catch flies
with chopsticks, right?
We're outta here.
Okay, bye, Soph. Bye, Gina.
- See you later!
- Bye!
- Ahh!
- Drive safe!
I may be eating for two,
but I am peeing for seven.
Did Rome and Eddie head out?
- Yeah.
- Oh!
Then it's just us.
Great.
Let's go.
Wait, where are we going?
Well, between Gary being
sick and Javier passing,
you haven't registered
for baby gifts yet,
which is the only good
part about being pregnant.
With, uh, everything going on,
I-I just haven't had the time.
Well, you know, people want
to buy you expensive stuff.
So what do you say?
I say let them buy me expensive stuff.
Oh, you know what?
I'm gonna pee one last time.
This one's because I'm excited.
Hello.
Wow! Wow!
Welcome back.
Thank you.
- Hi. Hi.
- Hi.
I missed you so much.
Not me. I mean, I
I loved it in there.
In fact, unlock the doors.
- I'm going back.
- Okay.
All I want to do is
go back to my place and have a shower
without anyone watching me.
Well, that sorta steps on
my plans for us this evening.
- Oh, really?
- Yeah.
Well, I'm willing to work with you.
Let's go, driver,
'cause someone owes me a conjugal visit.
Alright.
You don't have to tell me twice.
Oh, well, I guess
we're just gonna to
have to eat that one.
I guess we are.
- For you.
- Thank you.
Where are they from, anyway?
They're so delicious.
My mom sent them from France,
sort of a little care package for Gary.
Mm! That's sweet.
Oh. You want this blue cheese?
I definitely do not.
It's too bad that, because of Charlie,
she couldn't fly in.
Honestly, I think she was happy
to skip another funeral.
Hmm.
How are you doing?
Honestly, setting all
this up today for Gary
gave me something to do.
'Cause my friends all being in college
and the band is still trying to make it,
it feels a little bit
like my life is on hold.
Hmm. I've been there.
How about you? How you
doing with Tyrell being gone?
Oh.
It's harder than I thought it would be.
Yeah.
And now that Val and I
have the second truck,
I have so much more time by
myself to worry about him.
Like, is he eating?
Oh, come on, you know he is.
Is he showering?
I hope he is?
Oh, and I hope he has shower shoes.
I visited Tennille at Harvard,
and I cannot unsee what I
saw on that bathroom floor.
Eww!
You know what?
I'm gonna make Tyrell a care package
with shower shoes.
Wanna help me?
Absolutely.
We can start with this.
For him to eat,
or as an air freshener for his room?
- 'Cause
- No.
It's got to smell better
- than what's going on in his room.
- Oh, my God.
We've been on the road for a while.
You want to turn around?
First of all, slow down.
- Okay.
- Secondly, no.
I need you to help
me do something first.
Do what?
Alright, listen very carefully.
There's a bank in North Andover.
It's getting a large sum of money today.
You and I are gonna hold it up.
But you have to write the ransom note
because my handwriting's a mess.
What?!
What?!
What?!
Fine.
We won't rob a bank.
Because you don't like to have fun
and you don't like great things
and you don't like money.
Oh, my God!
Do you remember how mad your dad got
when you stole those,
uh What were they
"Star Wars" stickers?
Yeah, I do remember.
Um, I was the one he was mad at,
which is crazy, 'cause every kid
steals something at some point.
I didn't.
Come on, you never stole anything?
Not even, like, change
from the take-a-penny,
leave-a-penny?
And break the trust of a cashier
who was just trying
to help me walk around
without 98 cents' worth
of loose change in my pocket?
No, I did not.
Gary Mendez, I-I find that
completely unacceptable.
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Where are we going?
To finish your childhood.
Thanks for coming back. I'm sorry
Oh, Rome.
Who did you think I was?
- Florence. She just left all upset.
- What'd you do?
- Why do you assume I did something?
- Because I've met you.
And you just answered the
door saying, "I'm sorry,"
thinking it was your girlfriend.
What happened, Pop?!
I might have maybe forgotten
it was her birthday.
Oh, man.
How mad was she?
She wasn't mad, exactly.
She was more just
crying a lot.
Dad, that's T-that's so much worse!
I know what it is!
Okay, okay!
We just got to
We got to fix it.
You gotta buy her a
gift or something, yeah.
Now, w-what is
What is something that she really likes?
She loves that Keanu Reeves fella.
Can't stop talking about him.
Okay, so, maybe we We buy her a
"Matrix" box set.
You know what's funny?
Mom used to love "The Matrix," too.
That's right.
It was your mother
that loved "The Matrix."
I think we have the box set.
Should I regift it?
Flowers it is. Come
on, Pops, I'm driving.
Wow.
What is this? Why are we doing this?
You see that store?
You need to go in there
and steal something.
What?!
No, no, no.
- No, I'm not doing it.
- You need to.
So that, one day, when your kid does it,
hopefully, you'll go
a little easier on them.
There's no time for this.
I told you, I-I have the
whole afternoon planned for us.
- Come on.
- Okay, well, then
you better hurry.
Young Dan takes a stand, huh?
Alright.
Just keep the car running.
Thank you for suggesting we change.
When I wear all black now,
I feel like a bowling ball.
A cute bowling ball.
Oh, baby monitor done.
Wait, how do you know
that's the best one?
It's not. It's the most expensive one,
which you can exchange for the best one.
Oh, you're good.
Wow, cute!
Oh, do I need a wipe warmer?
I don't but I need
someone to buy it for me,
so I can exchange it for other stuff.
You're getting it now.
Yeah.
Okay, okay, go. Go, go, go, go, go!
W-W-Wait, wait, wait!
Check your mirrors.
Okay, now, go! Go! Go, go, go!
Stop!
Okay, now go. Go! Go, go, go, go!
And they haven't settled on a name, yet,
but if it's a girl, Maggie really wants
to name it Tallulah, so
Gary is praying for a boy.
Oh, Tallulah, like Tallulah Bankhead.
I don't know who that is, Pop.
She's a famous actress from the '40s!
So, if it's a boy,
what are they thinking?
Well, Gary really likes Maverick.
'Cause of the movie?!
Strangely, no.
Hello, Florence.
It's come to my attention that
it's someone special's birthday.
Don't play coy, Dad.
Happy Birthday.
Oh, Walter, they're beautiful!
Just like you.
May we come in?
Of course.
Thanks, Dad.
I guess your dad told
you what happened.
Oh, just the highlights
That he's a little
rusty when it comes to
dating etiquette.
Yeah Uh, Walter,
would you mind putting
these in some water?
The vase is under the sink.
- I'm on it.
- Thank you.
- About this morning
- Oh, he felt terrible.
And I didn't want to
make him feel any worse.
Then I'm just gonna leave you two to do
what it is that you do.
Just want to put it out there
that I already have a little brother.
No, Rome, listen.
I've been meaning to call you,
but with Gary being sick and
And his dad passing,
there wasn't a good time.
What is it?
The thing is, lately,
your dad has been having
some memory problems.
Really? I-I hadn't noticed that.
I mean, maybe a little, but
we're all getting older
No. No, i-i-it's more than that.
The other day, he was
telling me a story.
Soon as he finished,
he started telling me
the same story all over again.
The man loves the
sound of his own voice.
Rome
I am serious.
I think you need to get
your dad checked out.
He's still young.
We all forget things, even me.
Sometimes, I'm halfway
through my teaching day
before I realize I forgot to tie my tie.
Pop, is everything okay in there?!
Never better!
I though some lemonade might be nice.
I dropped an ice cube on the floor,
but don't worry I put it in my glass.
Or did I?
Wh-What about the flowers, Pop?
Flowers?
Right!
Where's the vase?
Under the sink.
I'm on it.
He's just tired.
I'm sure he just needs
to get more sleep.
You know how crazy I am about your dad.
And I'm so touched that he
He brought flowers and
But the reason I got upset earlier,
it wasn't because he forgot my birthday.
It's because I can't do this again.
My late husband suffered from dementia
for the last eight years of his life.
And meeting your dad
felt like a fresh start
after losing Bennett,
like the world was
opening up for me again.
Today is only my 58th birthday.
I love your dad.
I do.
And
I will always keep an
eye on him, but I-I-I
I can't take this journey with him.
So, I'm gonna need you to leave us,
so that I can speak to him alone.
Walter
I need to talk to you about something.
- Is it about the flowers?
- No.
It's not the flowers.
Never mind that.
- Hey, you'd fit
- That worked.
- What the heck is this thing?
- Oh, it's, uh,
like a coffee machine for your baby,
but instead of using a
coffee pod, you use formula.
That is ridiculous.
And it's $300?!
Oh, right. Mm!
- Yeah, that makes sense.
- Oh, my God.
What is it?
It's this gossipy mom
from Theo's school.
She found out about me and Greta,
and I'm sure she's telling everyone.
Just act like we don't see her.
So, how is all of that going,
introducing your new
life to your old life?
Well, I'll let you know when I do it.
I just
was never really one to like attention.
And I don't know it
just doesn't seem like
anyone else's business?
I get it.
You should be able to
do what makes you happy
without feeling everyone's judgment.
I'll take her.
Ah!
Do I put in two pairs of
extra headphones or three?
I think two should do it.
Alright.
Yeah.
Good & Plenty?
Are kids still eating this?
Oh, totally, yes!
Me and my dad used
to always share a box.
I'd take the pinks.
He'd eat the white ones.
Love that.
And this bag of cheddar popcorn?
That's for us.
Love you.
Deodorant.
Oh, you bought Tyrell deodorant?
He can't get that himself?
Can he? Yeah. Will he?
No idea.
In fact, I'm putting in the
third pair of headphones.
What are you thinking about?
Okay, this is gonna sound weird,
but I was just realizing that
I don't think anyone's ever
bought me deodorant before.
Uh, not sure that's
something to be sad about.
Yeah, I know, I just
I was remembering this
one time when I was 11,
and I was about to
go off to soccer camp,
and, yeah, thought it was time for me
to start using a few swipes.
Smart.
Dad, he he was so busy with work,
and he and my mom were fighting a lot.
I didn't want to cause
any more problems,
so I walked all the way
to the CVS in Newton Centre
by myself to get some.
Sometimes it
just feels like
Like you didn't always have
parents to fall back on?
- Oh, go on, take it.
- No.
I can call Tyrell back later.
You You've been
talking about him all day.
Look, I'll just be here,
eating your half of the cheddar popcorn.
Fair enough.
Hey, Tyrell.
Alright, pull over here.
You're going to buy drugs.
Are you gonna tell me
where we are?
We are
in front of a house.
Film me.
Please.
Okay.
Hello, child of mine.
Today's lesson is very simple
Never put off doing something now,
thinking that you'll
have the opportunity
to do it later.
That's why your cousin
Danny just made me shoplift.
We're editing that part out.
Okay.
It's why
Mom and I had you.
This is
something I wanted to do months ago.
But I put it off, thinking I had time.
So
always seize the day.
Alright, shut it off.
And, uh, driving tip
Once you reach your destination,
you generally want to turn the car off.
Yeah. No, I was going to.
No, you were. You just
opened your door first.
It's perfect, Josh. Thanks again.
I will leave the keys in
the mailbox when I lock up.
- Sounds good. Bye.
- Okay, thanks.
That was nice of him to
let you break your lease.
He actually thanked me.
He said he could rent this place out
for so much more than what I was paying.
Oh.
I can't believe I'm doing this.
You sure you want to?
Yeah.
Alright, then, let's pack up the car.
Load me up!
I'm a human dolly.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Who are the Grants?
Is that a new wallet? It's nice.
It's my father's.
Please hold all questions
until the end of the tour.
Can I help you?
Are you Gene Grant?
We're here because of Douglas.
My pop says that your picture
was the last thing he was
He was looking at before the shots came.
So I just
I wanted you to know, Gene
You were the last person
he was thinking about.
I didn't know Douglas
died 'til it hit the paper.
I knew his brother,
but I'd only seen his
folks from a distance.
Obviously, they didn't know about us.
M-Maybe you could tell us
a funny story about Douglas.
I mean, we we could all
use a laugh am I right?
Well, the, uh night
before Douglas shipped out,
there was a carnival in town,
and he wanted to win me
this giant stuffed elephant
to have to think of him
while he was in 'Nam.
It was just some cheap thing
worth a couple of bucks back then, tops.
He spent so much money
on those baseballs.
Douglas was very good at hiding things,
- except when he threw.
- Oh, boy.
You, too.
Oh, we we laughed so
hard, tears were running
They were running down our faces.
Did he win you the elephant?
- No.
- No, Dan.
No.
But
I did get this.
There was a, uh,
there was a photo booth, you know,
and we knew we couldn't
take our picture together
in case his folks saw it, but
Oh, wow.
Yeah.
Look at that.
Yeah.
You know, Gene, if Douglas
hadn't done what he did,
my dad wouldn't have come
home and I wouldn't be here.
I wanna show you another photo.
This is my son.
- Wait, i-it's a boy?
- Shh!
Do not tell Maggie that I told you that.
Congratulations.
Wow, your dad must be so happy.
His dad just passed away.
The funeral was today.
I'm sorry.
He really wanted you to know that story.
I found your address
a couple months ago,
and I was going to surprise
him and bring him here
so that he could tell you himself.
But, uh, I, uh
I-I-I-I waited too long.
Hey, why don't you tell us
a funny story about your dad?
Yeah, I got plenty of those.
Well, uh, unlike some people I know,
I did not shoplift as a child.
Wow!
But there was, uh, one time
I had a book report due,
and And my dad took me, uh,
to get some notecards
and a box to put them in.
And I didn't think the
box was the right size,
so I-I jammed the
cards in there to check.
And then we went and took
them up to the register,
and the clerk didn't realize
the cards were still in the box,
and we were in a hurry
'cause it was snowing.
Bottom line We get home,
we realize the cards are still in there.
We didn't pay for the cards.
So I tell my dad, "We got to go back.
We got to go back and pay for these."
And he looks at me, and he says
"Mijo, what are you talking about?
It's 79 cents' worth of notecards.
Who cares? Nobody cares."
But he saw my face,
and he knew that I cared.
He He put his work boots back on,
and we trudged through the snow
all the way back to Coolidge Corner.
He was complaining the whole time.
But on the way back
we had the most epic snowball fight
of all time.
Father versus son,
"Beyond Thunderdome."
I mean, we're just pelting each other
with snowballs, right?
And one of my dad's
snowballs sails wide right
and splat!
Nails the mailman in the face.
And we look at each other.
We're like, "Holy crap!"
Because the dude is huge!
He must have played college
football or something.
He puts down his bag
he picks up a snowball
and he just goes for it.
He's drilling us.
We're getting absolutely annihilated
by this giant postman,
and it was the best.
I wish my dad had been
here, but, trust me
Having Danny here
is the next best thing.
Yeah, Gene, thank you for your service.
Uh, I didn't fight in the war.
That's not what I mean.
I'm in high school, and I'm gay.
And I'm out, and you
absolutely fought for me.
So, thank you.
Okay, come on. Let's go!
Aw. Oh. Oh!
That's okay. I got it, bud.
Here you go, bud.
You take the bunny.
You make some faces at me?
What about this one?
Say, "Thank you, Kova."
We need to get home for naptime.
- Come on. Let's go.
- Bye!
Thank you. Good listening.
You are gonna be such a great mom.
Oh, wow, that means a
lot, coming from you.
You're an incredible mom.
Ohh, well, I don't know.
I've made my share of mistakes.
Yeah, sure, but the way
that you've handled them
is t-truly remarkable.
And you also work full time.
How do you do it? You
make it seem so easy.
"Seem" is the operative word here.
Daddy!
Hey!
Hi.
Ready?
One, two, yay!
I'm really scared.
I'm telling you, you're gonna be great.
Oh, not about that.
I mean, yes, about that, but, also
I need Gary to be okay.
Here.
Here.
Oh, thank you.
Oh, wow!
The warm ones really are nice.
Oh, Maggie
I saw you fight cancer
and be so resilient
when all these things were
happening to your body.
If any couple can beat
this, it's you two.
So, we'll see what
the doctor says tomorrow.
Whatever happens, you have a team
of great moms and dads surrounding you,
and we are not going anywhere.
Oh, hey.
How's Tyrell doing?
He's good. Yeah.
He had an interesting idea, actually.
I was telling him how Val and I are
on separate trucks during the day now,
and that sometimes I get lonely.
Uh, and he thought maybe you would like
to take his place on the food truck.
Me?
Yeah, I know you're still
playing with your band
and I don't want to
take you away from that,
but it's It's just day shifts,
and we could make
a schedule that works for you.
'Cause I-I could use the extra
help, if you're interested.
I'm interested.
Okay.
Was that really Tyrell's idea?
Nope. It was mine.
The kid can't even buy
his own shower shoes.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
Also
deodorant is mandatory on the truck.
It is a very small space.
Don't say I never gave you anything.
How you doing, Pop?
I'll be okay.
I wonder if that UPS woman is single.
And why not?
She's always bringing you gifts, right?
I'm gonna ask her what her name is.
Start slow.
I like it.
Speaking of names
Earlier today, I was telling you
what Maggie wants to name
the baby if it's a girl.
You remember what it was?
Are you testing me?
No, I just just just
want to see if you remember.
I'm not taking your stupid test.
- Dad
- I'm not taking your stupid test!
- Dad
- I'm not doing it!
You know what?
I went to church every Sunday for you
until I was 30.
I went to college, never did no drugs.
Hell, I even paid for the flowers
you gave to Florence today.
You're telling me you can't
do one little test for me?
Come on, Pop. Take a deep breath.
Get some oxygen to the brain
and see if you can remember.
Please, just try.
I remember it's the same name
as a famous movie star from the '40s.
Yes, that's right!
What was the actress' last name again?
I don't remember.
Then what the hell are
you giving me crap for?
I love you, Pop.
You annoy the hell
out of me, but I love you.
I was just going to
tell you the same thing.
Okay. Okay.
Wow!
- Aah!
- Told you it would all fit.
Ah!
Ah!
You almost inherited
a sewing machine and a flat iron.
Well, you say the word, and I will move
all of your stuff into my place.
Eddie
I know.
You can't.
Believe me, I would love nothing more
than for you to come with me.
But seeing how hard it's been
for you to be without Charlie,
I could never ask you
to do that with Theo.
You text your sister,
let her know you're on your way?
Yeah. But by the time I get to Akron,
she'll be fast asleep.
But you'll wake up in Ohio.
Where, when I see people whispering,
I won't wonder if they're talking
about what Peter did
and how I must've known.
- I should go.
- Okay.
- Allow me.
- Thank you.
Of course.
She's full.
This is exactly the way you looked
the first time I saw
you in that parking lot.
You
were the only good thing
about this last year.
This is the first time I
have ever been with someone
where I felt like I could be
exactly who I want to be.
Eddie, know that not
once in this relationship
did you let me down.
Thank you.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay, let me look at your file.
Gary
I am really happy
how your body is responding
to the Tagrisso treatment.
Things couldn't be better.
Oh, God!
- Oh, my gosh.
- This is great.
Sorry, uh, about bringing
an entourage, Doc.
It's just our Our friend group are
Well, they're very invested
in each other's lives.
S-So, does this mean that Gary's cured?
No, Ed, it doesn't.
When a cancer like this comes back,
it is not curable.
But it is treatable.
And as I said, I'm very hopeful
with the things I've seen today.
But Gary's right,
he's going to have cancer
for the rest of his life.
And we are going to do everything we can
to make sure the rest of that life
- is as long as possible.
- Mm-hmm.
Okay, enough of the long faces.
Look at this.
These are photos of all the kids
my patients have had
since being diagnosed.
Now, there's no reason to believe
that a photo of you with
your child won't be up there.
And with a bit of luck,
a photo of you and your kid's kid.
I love that plan, Doc.
I do.
I promised Katherine this
wouldn't be an all-day thing,
but I have one more request.
Uh, for future reference,
when I'm coming in
Uh, for results and
you know that they're good,
maybe you could have your nurse, uh,
slip some of that to me on the phone
when I'm making the appointment
because I've been crapping
my pants all morning.
And and And we're gonna have
plenty of that soon enough,
when this guy comes along.
Wait, did he say He said guy?
He Did A-Are we
Are we having a boy?
No, not I didn't mean
"guy." I meant like, "Guys!"
No, no. Are we having
- No, it's a
- Are we having a baby boy?
- We're all gonna
- We are having a boy.
- We're having a boy!
- Ohh!
- Hello!
- Yes!
We can still name him Tallulah,
- if you if you want.
- No. No.
- We can't do the Tallulah.
- Keep in mind
that Mavericks don't get picked on.
- Not the Tallulah.
- Yay!
Not the Tallulah.
Boy. Oh!
That it is. That is strong.
"Maverick Mendez" has
alliteration, though.
That is hot. That is hot.
- Man, I love you.
- Oh, buddy.
