Royal Pains s05e07 Episode Script
Chock Full O' Nuts
Previously on Royal Pains I know you're talking to Dr.
Van Dyke.
Mm-hmm.
But does that mean you're done talking to Hankmed? Well, it depends on what Hankmed is saying.
Forget tomorrow.
I'll have my attorney look over the contract tonight.
Do you know if there is any history of M.
S.
in your family? I'm the first.
I share more than a surname with Boris.
He continues to push for access to Shadow Pond.
Whatever he wants seems to be there.
There may be a clinical trial available for your condition.
Once we finalize the protocols, this will walk, talk, and smell like a real clinical trial.
So the trap is nearly set.
I didn't have a crush on Divya.
I was in love with her.
I'm officially homeless.
Front door, back door, deadbolt, garage.
Hello.
Hello.
Did I wake you up? I am so sorry.
No, it's, uh I'm a light light sleeper.
I'll try to be quieter next time.
Would you like a cup of hot cocoa? Always helps me sleep.
Uh, I already brushed my teeth.
Jeremiah, I found this plant and my cashmere throw outside my bedroom door.
Yes, you left them down here.
Oh, I thought they made things feel a little homier.
I can keep them in my room.
It'll make it feel homier up there.
Thank you.
Good night.
Good night.
And thank you again, so much, for letting me stay here.
Look, I understand that this is inconvenient for you, but the parameters are strict for the first phase of the clinical trial.
Milos? Why can't you come to Budapest? The research team requires participants to be in the U.
S.
To ask those with weak bones and muscles to travel such long distances seems ill-conceived.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
But at the request of the principal investigator, the blood and muscle biopsies must take place at the trial's location.
Hank, it seems foolish to travel so far with no guarantee of success.
Henry, Henry.
Auction.
This is the most promising protocol I've seen.
Milos, if there's anything else you'd like to discuss, please let me know.
I am happy to help.
Yeah, happy to help get you arrested, you big, fat murderer.
Thank you, Hank.
I will let you know if there's anything else I need.
You didn't tell him about the auction.
No, I didn't.
Henry, I thought the plan was to find out what he's looking for at Shadow Pond.
I just want him to get on that plane next week.
Boris is handling the auction.
Okay, good, 'cause Paige has been working dawn to dusk, cataloguing everything in the castle.
I'd be over there helping her, but I have a "Q" and "A" at the Y.
M.
C.
A.
, followed by a meet and greet at the U.
J.
A.
It's campaign events.
Yeah, that's probably for the best.
I'm sure Paige and her associates know what they're doing.
Yeah.
Talk about a win-win.
Boris finds out what Milos is after, and my wife brings in a ton of money for her auction house.
Plus, Boris gets to buy all new stuff.
So, actually, it's a win-win-win.
All right.
Will they be done cataloguing by next Friday? I mean, we need to send Milos the catalogue before he gets on a plane.
Yeah, they'll definitely be done in time.
- We'll never be done in time.
- Oh, please.
Walk with me.
Nicole, more side lighting.
This is Sutton and Chesterfield, not Craigslist.
I've had tighter deadlines than this.
Johann Baptist, without the "e.
" He wasn't Haitian.
I did christie Brinkley's estate twice.
I love the smell of linseed in the morning.
Should I ask the Hollands to mail their check from last week's estate auction? They asked me to stop by and pick it up in person the Hollands took a shine to you? Go on your lunch hour.
Giuseppe.
I have a lunch hour? You're on speaker, Ken.
Guys, this is a big deal.
No more are you the little concierge business that could.
You are being acquired by Symphony Health.
That's a big company with big pockets.
Killer Keller's gonna slide you a big signing bonus.
Wha we're not Carmelo Anthony.
Ev, you're with me, right? I mean, you've got a wife now.
She's gonna want to buy things.
Show me the money.
Okay, so why are we still arguing about paragraph 2B? No, no, 2B is not just Hankmed staff parking.
You want them to have easy access to you - wherever you are, right? - Makes sense.
Good point.
Ken, what are you doing? Your breathing sounds labored.
I'm I'm fine.
Listen, let's move on to paragraph three.
Okay, the performance clause.
So Symphony says bonuses are dependent on revenue-based goals.
You're gonna have to dig deep mentally as well as physically today, riders.
We need to inquire about their marketing efforts in the event original Hankmed patients - start to thin out.
- Do you mind? No, not at all.
Get off your phone.
It's not my fault my time is more valuable than yours.
Who is he talking to? It's Keller.
It could be his mom.
All right, this hill is going to kill you, and it's a good thing.
Punch it.
Bring it on, Ben.
Oh, please.
Hey, douchebag.
- Whoa! - Ken? Ken, are you okay? Royal Pains 5x07 - Chock Full O' Nuts Original air date July 31, 2013 All right, last stretch.
Give me all you got.
Three, two, one, sprint! I think you might be overdoing it.
This guy obviously felt threatened because I was leading the pack.
You were on a stationary bike.
People shouldn't push themselves beyond their capabilities when they spin.
Not everybody can be an elite rider.
I assume that's why you run.
But you should give it a try, Hank.
We got another two-hour class this weekend.
Don't worry, you can dial down the resistance to zero.
No one's gonna know.
Thank you so much.
Maybe Hankmed should get a lawyer who doesn't do his negotiating out of a health club.
What are you talking about? You should be grateful that your in-house counsel is also part Hankmed owner, not to mention an incredibly successful uber agent.
You want a lucrative deal, I am your guy.
Hey, there's your bus ad.
I look forward to finding out the bottom line tomorrow, when I see Shelby.
She called you? What did she say? Tell me everything.
Well, she called to ask if I could come in for a meeting.
That was it.
Oh, no, no, no.
Rookie mistake.
You and Evan do not see her without me present while we're negotiating.
Evan won't be there.
He'll be on a State of the Dunes tour.
- Wait, a what? - A State of the Dunes That was rhetorical.
I so don't care.
Look, here's the bottom line.
I am the hard shell.
You're the soft underbelly.
- I'm a big boy, Ken.
- Oh, yeah? Well, how are you gonna answer when she asks if she can have an amendment stating that you will weigh in on complicated cases at regional Symphony hospitals? Considering I'm a doctor, and I took an oath Wrong.
You ask if you're getting reimbursed for gas, not to mention wear and tear on that piece of crap you drive.
Ow! - Oh, I'm so sorry.
- Yeah.
Your work better not leave a scar, big boy.
All right, I hope you're all exhilarated but exhausted.
Nice work.
Hey, Ken.
You have to abide by the rules of the road.
- No more phones in class.
- He's right.
Thank you! No, it wasn't my fault.
I told him not to call me here.
I don't really know him.
Sorry I was so dramatic when I called.
Wendy, the packaging looks great.
Tomorrow, will you please show me the secret to getting your caramel that perfect golden shade every time you make it? There's no secret.
It's just instinct.
Is that 1/8 of a teaspoon that you're drizzling on each one? I don't measure it.
I just know when it's right.
Okay.
That's done.
And since you didn't come here to learn how to make a perfect caramel, um, back to me.
I think I was having a panic attack when I called you earlier.
I, um my chest felt a little tight.
That's a symptom, right? Or maybe I was panicking because my chest felt tight.
Anyway, I feel fine now.
I'm really sorry for wasting your time, Divya.
It is not a problem.
Since I'm here, why don't I check your vitals? Okay.
You know, the last time I was here, you were just moving in.
And now it looks like you've lived here forever.
Your kitchen is just charming.
It's like the perfect little Perfect little nest.
Um, how are you? Are you still seeing the polo player you were so into last summer? No.
No, it was a short romance.
Your blood pressure is fine.
Let's take your temperature.
So how's your business going? Thousands of pounds of candy later, it's expanding from East Hampton to the Upper East Side, and everywhere in between.
Oh, my gosh, that's wonderful.
Congratulations.
Yeah, and stressful.
These are not done right.
I'm in the process, actually, of hiring a confectioner and website designer and a P.
R.
person.
I don't know, all these new people are kind of making me feel a little bit Panicky? Yeah.
I started this business so I could work for myself, you know, by myself.
Now I'm gonna be the boss.
Me.
And I don't know how this is gonna go down, because all the recipes are in here.
I know by taste, not a timer, when each piece is done, and every piece is a work of art to me.
How do you teach that to people? I don't know.
But I do know that you don't have a temperature.
Your heart rate is a little fast, but within normal range.
It sounds like you have a lot to be excited about.
But if you get too excited, please give me a call? Will do.
Chocolate peanut caramel explosion? I thought you'd never ask.
Mmm.
Ugh, redo it.
- Pour vous.
- Merci beaucoup.
Et possiblement pour moi.
The Red Square.
When I went to pick up the check, the Hollands offered to sell it to me for 25% of the appraised value.
Why? In appreciation for all my hard work.
I took it on memo so Evan and I could think about it.
What is there to think about? You've talked about this piece all week.
I don't know.
If you don't buy it, I will.
It's a steal.
Okay.
As soon as my phone is done charging, I'm gonna call Evan.
Oh, sweetie, it doesn't charge if you don't plug it in.
It is charging, on the wireless charging pad.
I like it.
Cords are so clumsy.
Your first call needs to be to the Hollands, before they change their minds.
You're right.
I love it, and I'm buying it.
I had no idea spinning was so intense.
Yeah, most of these guys are high-powered something or others who don't lose.
Everything they do is to the extreme.
I know because I used to be one of them.
Oh, really? I didn't take you for a corporate refugee.
I got sucked into wall street after college by the prospect of making a really good living.
But this, this is really good living.
Yes, it is.
Sounds like you made the right decision.
I'm sure you get this all the time, as a doctor, but I was wondering, can I ask you a medical question? Yeah, sure.
What's going on? I've been having some jaw pain lately.
Okay.
How long? A few weeks.
Do you think it could be T.
M.
J.
? Could be.
Let me take a look.
Uh, open.
Close.
Open.
Pain on both sides? No, just the right.
Okay, I got a few minutes.
I can do a diagnostic nerve block.
It's a quick test to determine if the pain is from T.
M.
J.
or another cause.
Yeah, I'm game.
Okay, great.
Let's do it over here.
I'm going to inject Lidocaine into the skin below the jaw line.
If the pain is relieved instantly, it suggests T.
M.
J.
Okay.
Still hurt? Yeah.
Huh.
It may be an impacted wisdom tooth or cavity.
Do you have a dentist? - I have three in my next class.
- Oh.
I really appreciate this, Hank.
I was going to put them in Jeremiah's garage, but I can't.
Too full? Too flawless.
He prefers that you take your shoes off before walking into it.
- Please, let me help.
- No.
My landlord swears that my place is going to be ready in three weeks.
Divya, I told you, let me do this.
They're too heavy for you.
I feel like I should help.
It's my stuff.
You can help by letting me do it.
Oh, did I tell you that I figured out a way to turn my walk-in closet into a nursery? And since my landlord has to take the place down to the studs, he's agreed to put a window into it.
- That's great.
- Yeah.
And he's repainting anyway, so I can pick the colors.
I didn't want to go with the traditional blues or pinks, so I am trying to decide between baby turtle, Cancun sand, or Dorian Gray.
Dorian Gray.
That paint never gets old.
All right.
You know, I thought that this mold thing was going to be terrible, but it turns out I'm getting a whole remodel out of it.
I guess you could say you've found the fungal lining.
Wasn't that funny, was it? All right.
Our first piece of serious art.
Isn't it beautiful? It's a nice box.
You know, sometimes you have to live with a piece before you love it.
But trust me, this is a beautiful sculpture, and a great investment.
An investment? Oh, God, how much did we invest? What? We paid this for that? The Red Square is worth three times what I paid.
Our nest egg might have a little crack in it, but trust me, this is worth it.
Our nest egg is for emergencies.
Or, I don't know, maybe one day our own house.
Unless we can live in The Red Square.
I didn't spend it all.
And, Evan, this is a major work.
Paige, this is a major purchase.
Major purchases need to be discussed, okay? - That's what married people do.
- Really? Like we did when you leased that expensive car for the summer? That was a professional investment.
Perception's everything, with what I do.
This is this is crazy.
This is beautiful.
But if I have to explain to you why You know what, okay, I do need you to explain it, because I'm looking at it, and I'm thinking, a kindergartner could trip on some paint and make better art than this.
I would buy you a copy of Art For Dummies, but I don't think you'd understand it.
What's to understand? It's a red box.
What I don't understand is how you could think I would want to look at this for the next 50 years.
It sounds to me like what you're saying is that you don't trust that I know what I'm doing at my job.
You mean the unpaid internship you've had for a few weeks? Ohh! - It's unacceptable.
- It's boiler plate.
Hankmed will not move forward if the time off policy isn't described in detail in the fringe benefits paragraph.
I'm trying not to get alarmed, but what should I read into your knee-jerk objection to every single indemnity provision? We have a fiduciary duty to our board of directors Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Time off policy? Your lawyer wants me to write in a certain number of paid vacation days.
Trust me, you're going to want it in writing.
Keller, I don't really take my vacations as it is, so I think we can agree and move on.
We're on page 4 of 54, and I have patients to see.
Maybe we should tackle earn outs tomorrow.
- Maybe.
- Sorry, I'm booked.
Well, cancel your spin class.
Spin class? We need to speak privately.
Uh, okay? Oh, wow.
Listen to me.
Stop undermining us.
She can smell your impatience.
Oh, you've got to be kidding me.
This is why I hate negotiating with women.
Look at this.
Shelby? Shelby, would you like a break? Oh, no need.
I'm used to pushing forward on bad days.
"Bad days"? Wait, what does she mean by "bad days"? Is she sick? Tell me.
Maybe we can use it.
Okay, I'll tell you what, Shelby.
You can have a permanent break.
If you don't erase these conflicting terms, we are walking.
Go ahead.
Come on.
- Are you - I'm fine.
We're walking.
Walk.
I guess we're walking.
- Bye, Shelby.
- Bye.
Ken! I've decided not to keep it.
So your husband vetoed it.
- Mr.
Berger? - Yes, Matthew? Would you like the dining table and chairs to be listed as a single lot? This conversation sounds familiar, and not in a nostalgic way.
We spoke about the downstairs chippendale.
I'm referring to the upstairs Italian empire.
Single lot.
I have to sell it.
You are obviously a neophyte to the world of domestic squabbles.
This was our first real fight as a married couple.
Well, if you and your hubby traded barbs about the square in the room, wait till it's out of the room.
Do you still want to buy it? I'm sure I can find a buyer.
And I'll take my commission, of course.
- Hey.
- Hey.
J.
T.
or Jay-Z? Uh, Run-D.
M.
C.
Yeah? All right.
Run-D.
M.
C.
So I got a call from your dentist.
Yeah, yeah.
He didn't find anything.
Which is a relief, because on the bike, I'm no pain, no gain, but kind of wimpy in the dentist's chair.
But the jaw pain is worse.
Huh.
Have you had any injuries to the area? No.
Well, there was an angry ex-girlfriend.
Not that area.
Jaws are hard to break, but all it takes is hitting it just right, and you can get a hairline fracture.
Like I said, I'm a wimp.
I would remember an injury.
Right.
Well, this would be unusual, but arthritis can start in the jaw, so I'd like to draw some blood to test your erythrocyte sedimentation rate.
The sed rate reveals the inflammatory activity in your body.
I'm gonna choose not to focus on the word "arthritis.
" - I think that's wise.
- Okay.
I'm gonna, um, I'm gonna set up right over there.
Hey, when am I gonna see you on a bike? I will be in your class tomorrow.
I hope I can keep up, or "killer" Keller will never let me hear the end of it.
That guy is an animal in here.
It's cutthroat.
It's worse than wall street.
Oh, great.
Sounds like a blast.
Come on down.
Uh, have you been teaching a lot today? No, my first class of the day starts shortly.
Yesterday I thought you were having difficulty walking 'cause you had on your cycling shoes.
Have you experienced any tingling or numbness in your legs or feet? Uh, yeah, my feet have been a little numb, but they get that way when my shoes are on too tight.
Right.
Are they numb now? Uh, yeah.
I guess they are.
Okay.
I want to check your reflexes.
Have a seat up here.
Good.
Well, your response is normal.
I want to do a C.
T.
Why? It's just a diagnostic tool.
I mean, facial migraines can produce a deep, dull pain in the jaw.
This may be nothing more than that, but I'd like to rule out other possibilities as well.
All right.
Greer? Oh.
Hey, I I called to see how you were doing.
I probably couldn't hear the phone ring over the blare of the smoke alarm going off.
What happened? I accidentally left a spatula on a cookie sheet, and now there's plastic melted all over my ruined oven.
That explains the smell.
Yeah, and I still owe over 100 dozen caramels, and I haven't even started on my Belgian chocolate pretzels.
What happened to your new assistant? I had so much to do, I had to give her the day off.
And I know that that sounds nuts, but she asks so many questions, and she wants to write everything down, and it's really inefficient.
Okay, what actually troubles me is the sound of your chest.
Okay.
- Okay, let's step outside.
- I can't.
I really need to be in the kitchen.
- I have - Okay.
Look at me.
Inhale.
And hold as long as you can.
Better? You're wheezing, and you're short of breath.
Have you ever suffered from asthma? Mmmm.
I want to schedule a chest X-ray and pulmonary function test.
What about my deadline? I've got a delivery truck coming tonight, and no oven.
I need to get permission, but I may know of a kitchen that you can use.
Um okay.
No problem.
Yes, I'm sure.
You're welcome.
Oh, why couldn't I just say no? Were you talking to Divya? There's your answer.
Good news, Ben.
Your C.
T.
was clean.
Not such good news for me, 'cause I probably won't get out of taking your class tomorrow.
Do I have to wear bike shorts? Okay, good.
I've been a little concerned ever since I found out Divya was moving in with you, knowing how you feel, 'cause sharing space with anybody can be tricky, even if it's someone you know really well.
Even with me and Paige, I mean, sure, we've definitely had some I wouldn't say problems, but hiccups, adjustments to living together.
Nothing major, just Women can be very touchy about stuff.
She bought a plant and a blanket kind of thing.
That's exactly what I'm talking about.
They see something, they want it, they have to have it, even if it's utterly ridiculous, even if it's nonsensical and ugly as sin.
Well, I wouldn't call it ugly.
It's just a little bright.
You know what, though? Once you talk it over, you get through it.
And I think she'll understand where I was coming from, and we'll be stronger for it, in the end.
Well, she promised she'll clean it all up.
All what up? This kitchen is bigger than my house.
I can't believe you get to cook in here.
I'm afraid to.
It's so perfect.
Hey, am I putting too much on? Nope.
That is perfect.
I don't know why you're worried about having employees.
I mean, you're a wonderful boss.
My reputation, though, it's, you know, built on consistency.
My customers know when they bite into one of my chocolate turtles, they're gonna get a rich and velvety chocolate turtle every time.
Your new staff is going to know your recipes before you know it.
It just takes time to develop a team that you trust.
I guess I'll find out if my instincts apply to people or just to candy.
Okay, now that's too much.
See? Was that hard? No.
I loved it.
So if I love bossing you around, why am I so anxious? Well, maybe you're apprehensive about sharing your space.
My kitchen? Huh.
I love it, but I'm not that particular about my space.
Are you? I've never really thought about it before now, but I suppose I am.
I mean, having someplace where you feel at home is important.
Mm.
That is perfect.
Really good batch.
I haven't sampled them yet.
Oh, wow.
This is like the perfect confectionary storm.
Come here.
I see you're choking.
Stay calm and relax your body.
Strop struggling.
Come on.
You okay? The barium swallow revealed that you have esophageal strictures, which is the narrowing of the esophagus that causes difficulty in swallowing, and in your case, caused you to choke.
How did I get it? All the stress that you've been under has taken a toll and caused acid reflux.
Is there a way to treat it? You need an outpatient procedure known as balloon dilation to break down the scar tissue.
It's done very quickly by endoscopy.
Okay, great.
I will schedule that Call Wendy.
She can wrap up the orders for delivery, and I'll take you now to meet with an interventional radiologist.
But it won't take long.
It's Your business requires you to constantly sample your candy.
The risk of you choking again is too great.
What if, the next time, you're alone? But I haven't shown her how I delegate.
Greer, you have to start being the boss sometime.
You're right.
You're right.
Hey.
I got your favorite strawberry mint chip.
It's your favorite.
Oh.
Sorry.
No need to apologize.
It's just a table.
An empty table.
Well, I, uh, I bought the extra large container You bought it without consulting me? I'm on a deadline, Evan.
Right.
But, uh, when you're done Jeremiah.
I am so sorry.
Don't worry.
I'm going to clean this entire kitchen from top to bottom.
It is going to look exactly as you left it, even better.
I promise.
Do you prefer this photo of the Biedermeier, or this photo? Um, this one.
It highlights the markings on the secretary desk.
The light is better.
You were right about The Red Square.
Getting rid of it has only made things worse.
You want it back.
I never should have let it go.
Now all I feel is resentment towards Evan.
You know, I thought he would get it.
But he doesn't need to understand why I love it.
He just needs to respect that it's important to me.
I have to have it.
And Evan and I, we'll just have to work through it.
Oh, dear.
What? I already sold it.
Divya? I'm sleeping.
Okay.
Sorry.
Wait.
I need to talk.
I'm listening.
I think I made a mistake.
A really big mistake.
Is this about Greer? No.
No.
Greer is fine, though she was an accomplice.
It's about me and Jeremiah.
Hmm.
Roommate issues? To say the least.
I've never thought of myself as inconsiderate, but at Jeremiah's house, I'm a nightmare of a guest.
Oh, please.
I doubt that.
I let Greer use his kitchen, and let's just say we made a mess of it.
Honestly, out of all the kitchens in all the world.
I shouldn't find it funny, but it was such a disaster.
- Did Jeremiah laugh? - No.
Oh.
Okay.
Not even a little.
Sounds like you're having second thoughts about staying there.
I am.
Well, you're welcome to stay here, once I move all your boxes again.
No.
Can't do that.
Hey, you already have.
I mean, you are crashed on my lounger.
I am, aren't I? Yes, you are.
No.
If I've learned anything from this, it's that I do better living alone.
It's more my style.
Well, you can't for much longer.
I mean, pretty soon, you'll have someone sharing your space.
And they'll be sharing it for, like, the next 18 years, possibly more.
Is that what's been bothering you? Divya? Okay, well, at least it's not keeping you up.
Good talk, Div.
All right, everybody, feel that sunshine.
Way better than a corner office.
I'm feeling it.
I'm gonna turn up my resistance a little bit.
Yeah, so am I.
All right, we all warmed up? Yeah.
Oh, all right, then.
Let's race.
Really, Shackleford? What are you doing here? What, I'm sensitive to your client's needs, and he wants to close this deal.
You're not sensitive to my client.
You're stalking him.
Your shoes match your outfit.
I didn't know they made spanx for men.
You know, they make spanx for women, too.
I do.
Those would probably fit you better.
Okay, stop it.
Stop it now.
You're both children.
Off your bikes.
Off.
Off.
Get a room, and don't come out until the deal's been finalized.
Go.
- Fine.
- Fine.
- You're welcome.
- All right, everybody.
Time to get that upper body sexy and strong.
We're gonna do push-ups, sets of eight.
Here we go.
One, two What happened? It feels like my brain is being shocked.
Does it hurt at the base of your skull? Mm-hmm.
I think the pain you feel is 'cause you have an arterial tear in your neck.
We need to get you to the E.
R.
now.
The M.
R.
I.
confirmed a separation of the layers in the arterial wall.
- That sounds serious.
- It can be.
But we're lucky we discovered it before it led to a blood clot and caused a stroke.
Why did it tear? Typically, vertebral dissections can occur from traumatic injury, like whiplash, but even vigorous exercise can damage the artery.
So the healthiest thing I do gave me the most serious medical problem I've ever had? I noticed you get really into the music during your spin class.
That constant bobbing motion of the head may have caused it.
But I can teach again? With drug therapy, you should be back to spinning before you know it.
But maybe leave the headbanging to the hair metal bands.
This looks like the right color.
It is.
I read the radiologist's report.
Your dilation was successful.
How is your throat feeling? Fine.
Not even sore.
Pickup's in an hour.
I would like to do a spirometry test to measure your airflow.
It won't take long.
Here.
Now take a deep, deep breath, and breathe out as hard as you can.
Okay.
Ready? Keep going, keep going, keep going, keep going, keep going, go, go, go.
Perfect.
Great.
It looks like your breathing is returning to normal.

I called and they came and fixed the oven, started working their magic.
They really picked up the slack.
That's wonderful.
But to prevent the stricture from forming again, we need to deal with the underlying cause, your stress.
Well, now that I'm not trying to do everything myself, I'm actually okay with being bossy.
Here.
Taste this.
Oh.
It's too sweet.
Believe it or not, the secret to sweetness is actually salt.
Here, I'll show you.
I got a good deal, too.
The guy waived his commission.
I cleaned everything as best as I could.
I hope I got everything.
You missed two things.
You didn't have to do that.
I don't even know why I brought them.
I was being pushy.
No, you you were nesting.
That's what pregnant women do, according to my research.
You're also experiencing an increase in progesterone and estrogen levels.
I think you're right.
I've had nesting on my brain.
But this is your home, and I'm intruding.
You can stay here as long as you need to.
As long as you want to.
I know how particular you are about your space.
I want to work on that.
Are you sure? Well, I'll be a better guest.
Hank.
- Hey.
- Hey.
The hospital told me you were here.
- Mm-hmm.
- That's a nice room.
Yeah, I've been here so long they let me redecorate.
So I hear we finally have a deal.
Yeah, now all we need is an actual contract.
Signed, sealed, and delivered.
Hey, is that the messenger? Is that I think you're gonna be very pleased - with what we worked out.
- I know I am.
Ah.
- You said "get a room.
" - Would you be a dear and get me a turkey sandwich from room service? Light on the mayo, extra mustard, and bread and butter pickles? - Absolutely.
- Thank you.
Okay, get that look off your face.
We are consenting adults, and our Hankmed business is handled.
- I didn't say anything.
- No, you didn't have to.
Welcome to my personal life.
I make sure that I get my fair share of fun whether it makes sense on paper or not.
Are you gonna stay for room service? Uh, actually, I think I'll take a rain check on that, but maybe we'll all grab a drink later.
- Yeah, that sounds fun.
- Okay.
I look forward to working with you and with Symphony.
Aw.
Oh, by the way, don't you have a patient in Hungary? Why? I just got the weirdest phone call from a doctor in Budapest about a clinical trial, and he mentioned you.
Yeah, my European patient's interested in a local trial.
What did you tell the doctor? I said I didn't know anything about it.
But that if Hank Lawson is involved, I'm sure it's great.
- Thank you.
- Mm-hmm.
Enjoy your bread and butter pickles.
Okay.
You know it kind of grows on you.
- Art can do that.
- Hmm.
Is it part of a collection? Is there, like, an orange circle or a blue triangle? I've always wanted a green crescent.
That's why I'm asking.
Are you comparing our piece to lucky charms? How did you catch that? Yes! Mm.
All right.
So, took us a while, but I'm really glad we're finally doing this.
Me too.
Budgets are important.
Here.
Okay.
Um, does that look like a reasonable amount to spend on entertainment every month? Yeah, looks good to me.
If we want to spend more, we'll just talk to each other about it first.
Exactly.
All right, next category, beauty products.
- Mm-hmm.
- Ooh.
Skin care looks a little high.
Um, I'm gonna ask you to take your hand and rub the back of it on my face, gently.
- Ooh, say no more.
- That's what I'm talking about.
Okay, moving right along.
- To us.
- Cheers.
To the newest members of Symphony Health, I want to be the first to say welcome to the family.
Thank you, Shelby.
We are so excited to be on board.
I want to thank both of you for going above and beyond the call of duty and hammering out the finer points of this new relationship.
Oh, Evan, you have no idea.
This deal must be very different from your usual sports deals.
- No, negotiating's negotiating.
- Yeah.
When you're the best at what you do, it doesn't matter if it's an athlete's contract or Hank's.
Wow, you're really a legend in your own mind, huh? Uh-huh.
Yeah, of course.
I understand.
What's up? That was Boris.
Everything all right? The men he had trailing Milos lost track of him.
Maybe I screwed up.
Maybe I maybe I gave Milos too much information.
You think he got suspicious of the plan? I hope not.
What if he figured out Boris is alive? If he did, what do we do? I don't know, Evan.
I don't know.
I mean, I've never done something like this before.
Well, we know what happened to the last guy Milos got suspicious of.
He had him killed.
Actually, he did it himself.
In the middle of the street.
Van Dyke.
Mm-hmm.
But does that mean you're done talking to Hankmed? Well, it depends on what Hankmed is saying.
Forget tomorrow.
I'll have my attorney look over the contract tonight.
Do you know if there is any history of M.
S.
in your family? I'm the first.
I share more than a surname with Boris.
He continues to push for access to Shadow Pond.
Whatever he wants seems to be there.
There may be a clinical trial available for your condition.
Once we finalize the protocols, this will walk, talk, and smell like a real clinical trial.
So the trap is nearly set.
I didn't have a crush on Divya.
I was in love with her.
I'm officially homeless.
Front door, back door, deadbolt, garage.
Hello.
Hello.
Did I wake you up? I am so sorry.
No, it's, uh I'm a light light sleeper.
I'll try to be quieter next time.
Would you like a cup of hot cocoa? Always helps me sleep.
Uh, I already brushed my teeth.
Jeremiah, I found this plant and my cashmere throw outside my bedroom door.
Yes, you left them down here.
Oh, I thought they made things feel a little homier.
I can keep them in my room.
It'll make it feel homier up there.
Thank you.
Good night.
Good night.
And thank you again, so much, for letting me stay here.
Look, I understand that this is inconvenient for you, but the parameters are strict for the first phase of the clinical trial.
Milos? Why can't you come to Budapest? The research team requires participants to be in the U.
S.
To ask those with weak bones and muscles to travel such long distances seems ill-conceived.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
But at the request of the principal investigator, the blood and muscle biopsies must take place at the trial's location.
Hank, it seems foolish to travel so far with no guarantee of success.
Henry, Henry.
Auction.
This is the most promising protocol I've seen.
Milos, if there's anything else you'd like to discuss, please let me know.
I am happy to help.
Yeah, happy to help get you arrested, you big, fat murderer.
Thank you, Hank.
I will let you know if there's anything else I need.
You didn't tell him about the auction.
No, I didn't.
Henry, I thought the plan was to find out what he's looking for at Shadow Pond.
I just want him to get on that plane next week.
Boris is handling the auction.
Okay, good, 'cause Paige has been working dawn to dusk, cataloguing everything in the castle.
I'd be over there helping her, but I have a "Q" and "A" at the Y.
M.
C.
A.
, followed by a meet and greet at the U.
J.
A.
It's campaign events.
Yeah, that's probably for the best.
I'm sure Paige and her associates know what they're doing.
Yeah.
Talk about a win-win.
Boris finds out what Milos is after, and my wife brings in a ton of money for her auction house.
Plus, Boris gets to buy all new stuff.
So, actually, it's a win-win-win.
All right.
Will they be done cataloguing by next Friday? I mean, we need to send Milos the catalogue before he gets on a plane.
Yeah, they'll definitely be done in time.
- We'll never be done in time.
- Oh, please.
Walk with me.
Nicole, more side lighting.
This is Sutton and Chesterfield, not Craigslist.
I've had tighter deadlines than this.
Johann Baptist, without the "e.
" He wasn't Haitian.
I did christie Brinkley's estate twice.
I love the smell of linseed in the morning.
Should I ask the Hollands to mail their check from last week's estate auction? They asked me to stop by and pick it up in person the Hollands took a shine to you? Go on your lunch hour.
Giuseppe.
I have a lunch hour? You're on speaker, Ken.
Guys, this is a big deal.
No more are you the little concierge business that could.
You are being acquired by Symphony Health.
That's a big company with big pockets.
Killer Keller's gonna slide you a big signing bonus.
Wha we're not Carmelo Anthony.
Ev, you're with me, right? I mean, you've got a wife now.
She's gonna want to buy things.
Show me the money.
Okay, so why are we still arguing about paragraph 2B? No, no, 2B is not just Hankmed staff parking.
You want them to have easy access to you - wherever you are, right? - Makes sense.
Good point.
Ken, what are you doing? Your breathing sounds labored.
I'm I'm fine.
Listen, let's move on to paragraph three.
Okay, the performance clause.
So Symphony says bonuses are dependent on revenue-based goals.
You're gonna have to dig deep mentally as well as physically today, riders.
We need to inquire about their marketing efforts in the event original Hankmed patients - start to thin out.
- Do you mind? No, not at all.
Get off your phone.
It's not my fault my time is more valuable than yours.
Who is he talking to? It's Keller.
It could be his mom.
All right, this hill is going to kill you, and it's a good thing.
Punch it.
Bring it on, Ben.
Oh, please.
Hey, douchebag.
- Whoa! - Ken? Ken, are you okay? Royal Pains 5x07 - Chock Full O' Nuts Original air date July 31, 2013 All right, last stretch.
Give me all you got.
Three, two, one, sprint! I think you might be overdoing it.
This guy obviously felt threatened because I was leading the pack.
You were on a stationary bike.
People shouldn't push themselves beyond their capabilities when they spin.
Not everybody can be an elite rider.
I assume that's why you run.
But you should give it a try, Hank.
We got another two-hour class this weekend.
Don't worry, you can dial down the resistance to zero.
No one's gonna know.
Thank you so much.
Maybe Hankmed should get a lawyer who doesn't do his negotiating out of a health club.
What are you talking about? You should be grateful that your in-house counsel is also part Hankmed owner, not to mention an incredibly successful uber agent.
You want a lucrative deal, I am your guy.
Hey, there's your bus ad.
I look forward to finding out the bottom line tomorrow, when I see Shelby.
She called you? What did she say? Tell me everything.
Well, she called to ask if I could come in for a meeting.
That was it.
Oh, no, no, no.
Rookie mistake.
You and Evan do not see her without me present while we're negotiating.
Evan won't be there.
He'll be on a State of the Dunes tour.
- Wait, a what? - A State of the Dunes That was rhetorical.
I so don't care.
Look, here's the bottom line.
I am the hard shell.
You're the soft underbelly.
- I'm a big boy, Ken.
- Oh, yeah? Well, how are you gonna answer when she asks if she can have an amendment stating that you will weigh in on complicated cases at regional Symphony hospitals? Considering I'm a doctor, and I took an oath Wrong.
You ask if you're getting reimbursed for gas, not to mention wear and tear on that piece of crap you drive.
Ow! - Oh, I'm so sorry.
- Yeah.
Your work better not leave a scar, big boy.
All right, I hope you're all exhilarated but exhausted.
Nice work.
Hey, Ken.
You have to abide by the rules of the road.
- No more phones in class.
- He's right.
Thank you! No, it wasn't my fault.
I told him not to call me here.
I don't really know him.
Sorry I was so dramatic when I called.
Wendy, the packaging looks great.
Tomorrow, will you please show me the secret to getting your caramel that perfect golden shade every time you make it? There's no secret.
It's just instinct.
Is that 1/8 of a teaspoon that you're drizzling on each one? I don't measure it.
I just know when it's right.
Okay.
That's done.
And since you didn't come here to learn how to make a perfect caramel, um, back to me.
I think I was having a panic attack when I called you earlier.
I, um my chest felt a little tight.
That's a symptom, right? Or maybe I was panicking because my chest felt tight.
Anyway, I feel fine now.
I'm really sorry for wasting your time, Divya.
It is not a problem.
Since I'm here, why don't I check your vitals? Okay.
You know, the last time I was here, you were just moving in.
And now it looks like you've lived here forever.
Your kitchen is just charming.
It's like the perfect little Perfect little nest.
Um, how are you? Are you still seeing the polo player you were so into last summer? No.
No, it was a short romance.
Your blood pressure is fine.
Let's take your temperature.
So how's your business going? Thousands of pounds of candy later, it's expanding from East Hampton to the Upper East Side, and everywhere in between.
Oh, my gosh, that's wonderful.
Congratulations.
Yeah, and stressful.
These are not done right.
I'm in the process, actually, of hiring a confectioner and website designer and a P.
R.
person.
I don't know, all these new people are kind of making me feel a little bit Panicky? Yeah.
I started this business so I could work for myself, you know, by myself.
Now I'm gonna be the boss.
Me.
And I don't know how this is gonna go down, because all the recipes are in here.
I know by taste, not a timer, when each piece is done, and every piece is a work of art to me.
How do you teach that to people? I don't know.
But I do know that you don't have a temperature.
Your heart rate is a little fast, but within normal range.
It sounds like you have a lot to be excited about.
But if you get too excited, please give me a call? Will do.
Chocolate peanut caramel explosion? I thought you'd never ask.
Mmm.
Ugh, redo it.
- Pour vous.
- Merci beaucoup.
Et possiblement pour moi.
The Red Square.
When I went to pick up the check, the Hollands offered to sell it to me for 25% of the appraised value.
Why? In appreciation for all my hard work.
I took it on memo so Evan and I could think about it.
What is there to think about? You've talked about this piece all week.
I don't know.
If you don't buy it, I will.
It's a steal.
Okay.
As soon as my phone is done charging, I'm gonna call Evan.
Oh, sweetie, it doesn't charge if you don't plug it in.
It is charging, on the wireless charging pad.
I like it.
Cords are so clumsy.
Your first call needs to be to the Hollands, before they change their minds.
You're right.
I love it, and I'm buying it.
I had no idea spinning was so intense.
Yeah, most of these guys are high-powered something or others who don't lose.
Everything they do is to the extreme.
I know because I used to be one of them.
Oh, really? I didn't take you for a corporate refugee.
I got sucked into wall street after college by the prospect of making a really good living.
But this, this is really good living.
Yes, it is.
Sounds like you made the right decision.
I'm sure you get this all the time, as a doctor, but I was wondering, can I ask you a medical question? Yeah, sure.
What's going on? I've been having some jaw pain lately.
Okay.
How long? A few weeks.
Do you think it could be T.
M.
J.
? Could be.
Let me take a look.
Uh, open.
Close.
Open.
Pain on both sides? No, just the right.
Okay, I got a few minutes.
I can do a diagnostic nerve block.
It's a quick test to determine if the pain is from T.
M.
J.
or another cause.
Yeah, I'm game.
Okay, great.
Let's do it over here.
I'm going to inject Lidocaine into the skin below the jaw line.
If the pain is relieved instantly, it suggests T.
M.
J.
Okay.
Still hurt? Yeah.
Huh.
It may be an impacted wisdom tooth or cavity.
Do you have a dentist? - I have three in my next class.
- Oh.
I really appreciate this, Hank.
I was going to put them in Jeremiah's garage, but I can't.
Too full? Too flawless.
He prefers that you take your shoes off before walking into it.
- Please, let me help.
- No.
My landlord swears that my place is going to be ready in three weeks.
Divya, I told you, let me do this.
They're too heavy for you.
I feel like I should help.
It's my stuff.
You can help by letting me do it.
Oh, did I tell you that I figured out a way to turn my walk-in closet into a nursery? And since my landlord has to take the place down to the studs, he's agreed to put a window into it.
- That's great.
- Yeah.
And he's repainting anyway, so I can pick the colors.
I didn't want to go with the traditional blues or pinks, so I am trying to decide between baby turtle, Cancun sand, or Dorian Gray.
Dorian Gray.
That paint never gets old.
All right.
You know, I thought that this mold thing was going to be terrible, but it turns out I'm getting a whole remodel out of it.
I guess you could say you've found the fungal lining.
Wasn't that funny, was it? All right.
Our first piece of serious art.
Isn't it beautiful? It's a nice box.
You know, sometimes you have to live with a piece before you love it.
But trust me, this is a beautiful sculpture, and a great investment.
An investment? Oh, God, how much did we invest? What? We paid this for that? The Red Square is worth three times what I paid.
Our nest egg might have a little crack in it, but trust me, this is worth it.
Our nest egg is for emergencies.
Or, I don't know, maybe one day our own house.
Unless we can live in The Red Square.
I didn't spend it all.
And, Evan, this is a major work.
Paige, this is a major purchase.
Major purchases need to be discussed, okay? - That's what married people do.
- Really? Like we did when you leased that expensive car for the summer? That was a professional investment.
Perception's everything, with what I do.
This is this is crazy.
This is beautiful.
But if I have to explain to you why You know what, okay, I do need you to explain it, because I'm looking at it, and I'm thinking, a kindergartner could trip on some paint and make better art than this.
I would buy you a copy of Art For Dummies, but I don't think you'd understand it.
What's to understand? It's a red box.
What I don't understand is how you could think I would want to look at this for the next 50 years.
It sounds to me like what you're saying is that you don't trust that I know what I'm doing at my job.
You mean the unpaid internship you've had for a few weeks? Ohh! - It's unacceptable.
- It's boiler plate.
Hankmed will not move forward if the time off policy isn't described in detail in the fringe benefits paragraph.
I'm trying not to get alarmed, but what should I read into your knee-jerk objection to every single indemnity provision? We have a fiduciary duty to our board of directors Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Time off policy? Your lawyer wants me to write in a certain number of paid vacation days.
Trust me, you're going to want it in writing.
Keller, I don't really take my vacations as it is, so I think we can agree and move on.
We're on page 4 of 54, and I have patients to see.
Maybe we should tackle earn outs tomorrow.
- Maybe.
- Sorry, I'm booked.
Well, cancel your spin class.
Spin class? We need to speak privately.
Uh, okay? Oh, wow.
Listen to me.
Stop undermining us.
She can smell your impatience.
Oh, you've got to be kidding me.
This is why I hate negotiating with women.
Look at this.
Shelby? Shelby, would you like a break? Oh, no need.
I'm used to pushing forward on bad days.
"Bad days"? Wait, what does she mean by "bad days"? Is she sick? Tell me.
Maybe we can use it.
Okay, I'll tell you what, Shelby.
You can have a permanent break.
If you don't erase these conflicting terms, we are walking.
Go ahead.
Come on.
- Are you - I'm fine.
We're walking.
Walk.
I guess we're walking.
- Bye, Shelby.
- Bye.
Ken! I've decided not to keep it.
So your husband vetoed it.
- Mr.
Berger? - Yes, Matthew? Would you like the dining table and chairs to be listed as a single lot? This conversation sounds familiar, and not in a nostalgic way.
We spoke about the downstairs chippendale.
I'm referring to the upstairs Italian empire.
Single lot.
I have to sell it.
You are obviously a neophyte to the world of domestic squabbles.
This was our first real fight as a married couple.
Well, if you and your hubby traded barbs about the square in the room, wait till it's out of the room.
Do you still want to buy it? I'm sure I can find a buyer.
And I'll take my commission, of course.
- Hey.
- Hey.
J.
T.
or Jay-Z? Uh, Run-D.
M.
C.
Yeah? All right.
Run-D.
M.
C.
So I got a call from your dentist.
Yeah, yeah.
He didn't find anything.
Which is a relief, because on the bike, I'm no pain, no gain, but kind of wimpy in the dentist's chair.
But the jaw pain is worse.
Huh.
Have you had any injuries to the area? No.
Well, there was an angry ex-girlfriend.
Not that area.
Jaws are hard to break, but all it takes is hitting it just right, and you can get a hairline fracture.
Like I said, I'm a wimp.
I would remember an injury.
Right.
Well, this would be unusual, but arthritis can start in the jaw, so I'd like to draw some blood to test your erythrocyte sedimentation rate.
The sed rate reveals the inflammatory activity in your body.
I'm gonna choose not to focus on the word "arthritis.
" - I think that's wise.
- Okay.
I'm gonna, um, I'm gonna set up right over there.
Hey, when am I gonna see you on a bike? I will be in your class tomorrow.
I hope I can keep up, or "killer" Keller will never let me hear the end of it.
That guy is an animal in here.
It's cutthroat.
It's worse than wall street.
Oh, great.
Sounds like a blast.
Come on down.
Uh, have you been teaching a lot today? No, my first class of the day starts shortly.
Yesterday I thought you were having difficulty walking 'cause you had on your cycling shoes.
Have you experienced any tingling or numbness in your legs or feet? Uh, yeah, my feet have been a little numb, but they get that way when my shoes are on too tight.
Right.
Are they numb now? Uh, yeah.
I guess they are.
Okay.
I want to check your reflexes.
Have a seat up here.
Good.
Well, your response is normal.
I want to do a C.
T.
Why? It's just a diagnostic tool.
I mean, facial migraines can produce a deep, dull pain in the jaw.
This may be nothing more than that, but I'd like to rule out other possibilities as well.
All right.
Greer? Oh.
Hey, I I called to see how you were doing.
I probably couldn't hear the phone ring over the blare of the smoke alarm going off.
What happened? I accidentally left a spatula on a cookie sheet, and now there's plastic melted all over my ruined oven.
That explains the smell.
Yeah, and I still owe over 100 dozen caramels, and I haven't even started on my Belgian chocolate pretzels.
What happened to your new assistant? I had so much to do, I had to give her the day off.
And I know that that sounds nuts, but she asks so many questions, and she wants to write everything down, and it's really inefficient.
Okay, what actually troubles me is the sound of your chest.
Okay.
- Okay, let's step outside.
- I can't.
I really need to be in the kitchen.
- I have - Okay.
Look at me.
Inhale.
And hold as long as you can.
Better? You're wheezing, and you're short of breath.
Have you ever suffered from asthma? Mmmm.
I want to schedule a chest X-ray and pulmonary function test.
What about my deadline? I've got a delivery truck coming tonight, and no oven.
I need to get permission, but I may know of a kitchen that you can use.
Um okay.
No problem.
Yes, I'm sure.
You're welcome.
Oh, why couldn't I just say no? Were you talking to Divya? There's your answer.
Good news, Ben.
Your C.
T.
was clean.
Not such good news for me, 'cause I probably won't get out of taking your class tomorrow.
Do I have to wear bike shorts? Okay, good.
I've been a little concerned ever since I found out Divya was moving in with you, knowing how you feel, 'cause sharing space with anybody can be tricky, even if it's someone you know really well.
Even with me and Paige, I mean, sure, we've definitely had some I wouldn't say problems, but hiccups, adjustments to living together.
Nothing major, just Women can be very touchy about stuff.
She bought a plant and a blanket kind of thing.
That's exactly what I'm talking about.
They see something, they want it, they have to have it, even if it's utterly ridiculous, even if it's nonsensical and ugly as sin.
Well, I wouldn't call it ugly.
It's just a little bright.
You know what, though? Once you talk it over, you get through it.
And I think she'll understand where I was coming from, and we'll be stronger for it, in the end.
Well, she promised she'll clean it all up.
All what up? This kitchen is bigger than my house.
I can't believe you get to cook in here.
I'm afraid to.
It's so perfect.
Hey, am I putting too much on? Nope.
That is perfect.
I don't know why you're worried about having employees.
I mean, you're a wonderful boss.
My reputation, though, it's, you know, built on consistency.
My customers know when they bite into one of my chocolate turtles, they're gonna get a rich and velvety chocolate turtle every time.
Your new staff is going to know your recipes before you know it.
It just takes time to develop a team that you trust.
I guess I'll find out if my instincts apply to people or just to candy.
Okay, now that's too much.
See? Was that hard? No.
I loved it.
So if I love bossing you around, why am I so anxious? Well, maybe you're apprehensive about sharing your space.
My kitchen? Huh.
I love it, but I'm not that particular about my space.
Are you? I've never really thought about it before now, but I suppose I am.
I mean, having someplace where you feel at home is important.
Mm.
That is perfect.
Really good batch.
I haven't sampled them yet.
Oh, wow.
This is like the perfect confectionary storm.
Come here.
I see you're choking.
Stay calm and relax your body.
Strop struggling.
Come on.
You okay? The barium swallow revealed that you have esophageal strictures, which is the narrowing of the esophagus that causes difficulty in swallowing, and in your case, caused you to choke.
How did I get it? All the stress that you've been under has taken a toll and caused acid reflux.
Is there a way to treat it? You need an outpatient procedure known as balloon dilation to break down the scar tissue.
It's done very quickly by endoscopy.
Okay, great.
I will schedule that Call Wendy.
She can wrap up the orders for delivery, and I'll take you now to meet with an interventional radiologist.
But it won't take long.
It's Your business requires you to constantly sample your candy.
The risk of you choking again is too great.
What if, the next time, you're alone? But I haven't shown her how I delegate.
Greer, you have to start being the boss sometime.
You're right.
You're right.
Hey.
I got your favorite strawberry mint chip.
It's your favorite.
Oh.
Sorry.
No need to apologize.
It's just a table.
An empty table.
Well, I, uh, I bought the extra large container You bought it without consulting me? I'm on a deadline, Evan.
Right.
But, uh, when you're done Jeremiah.
I am so sorry.
Don't worry.
I'm going to clean this entire kitchen from top to bottom.
It is going to look exactly as you left it, even better.
I promise.
Do you prefer this photo of the Biedermeier, or this photo? Um, this one.
It highlights the markings on the secretary desk.
The light is better.
You were right about The Red Square.
Getting rid of it has only made things worse.
You want it back.
I never should have let it go.
Now all I feel is resentment towards Evan.
You know, I thought he would get it.
But he doesn't need to understand why I love it.
He just needs to respect that it's important to me.
I have to have it.
And Evan and I, we'll just have to work through it.
Oh, dear.
What? I already sold it.
Divya? I'm sleeping.
Okay.
Sorry.
Wait.
I need to talk.
I'm listening.
I think I made a mistake.
A really big mistake.
Is this about Greer? No.
No.
Greer is fine, though she was an accomplice.
It's about me and Jeremiah.
Hmm.
Roommate issues? To say the least.
I've never thought of myself as inconsiderate, but at Jeremiah's house, I'm a nightmare of a guest.
Oh, please.
I doubt that.
I let Greer use his kitchen, and let's just say we made a mess of it.
Honestly, out of all the kitchens in all the world.
I shouldn't find it funny, but it was such a disaster.
- Did Jeremiah laugh? - No.
Oh.
Okay.
Not even a little.
Sounds like you're having second thoughts about staying there.
I am.
Well, you're welcome to stay here, once I move all your boxes again.
No.
Can't do that.
Hey, you already have.
I mean, you are crashed on my lounger.
I am, aren't I? Yes, you are.
No.
If I've learned anything from this, it's that I do better living alone.
It's more my style.
Well, you can't for much longer.
I mean, pretty soon, you'll have someone sharing your space.
And they'll be sharing it for, like, the next 18 years, possibly more.
Is that what's been bothering you? Divya? Okay, well, at least it's not keeping you up.
Good talk, Div.
All right, everybody, feel that sunshine.
Way better than a corner office.
I'm feeling it.
I'm gonna turn up my resistance a little bit.
Yeah, so am I.
All right, we all warmed up? Yeah.
Oh, all right, then.
Let's race.
Really, Shackleford? What are you doing here? What, I'm sensitive to your client's needs, and he wants to close this deal.
You're not sensitive to my client.
You're stalking him.
Your shoes match your outfit.
I didn't know they made spanx for men.
You know, they make spanx for women, too.
I do.
Those would probably fit you better.
Okay, stop it.
Stop it now.
You're both children.
Off your bikes.
Off.
Off.
Get a room, and don't come out until the deal's been finalized.
Go.
- Fine.
- Fine.
- You're welcome.
- All right, everybody.
Time to get that upper body sexy and strong.
We're gonna do push-ups, sets of eight.
Here we go.
One, two What happened? It feels like my brain is being shocked.
Does it hurt at the base of your skull? Mm-hmm.
I think the pain you feel is 'cause you have an arterial tear in your neck.
We need to get you to the E.
R.
now.
The M.
R.
I.
confirmed a separation of the layers in the arterial wall.
- That sounds serious.
- It can be.
But we're lucky we discovered it before it led to a blood clot and caused a stroke.
Why did it tear? Typically, vertebral dissections can occur from traumatic injury, like whiplash, but even vigorous exercise can damage the artery.
So the healthiest thing I do gave me the most serious medical problem I've ever had? I noticed you get really into the music during your spin class.
That constant bobbing motion of the head may have caused it.
But I can teach again? With drug therapy, you should be back to spinning before you know it.
But maybe leave the headbanging to the hair metal bands.
This looks like the right color.
It is.
I read the radiologist's report.
Your dilation was successful.
How is your throat feeling? Fine.
Not even sore.
Pickup's in an hour.
I would like to do a spirometry test to measure your airflow.
It won't take long.
Here.
Now take a deep, deep breath, and breathe out as hard as you can.
Okay.
Ready? Keep going, keep going, keep going, keep going, keep going, go, go, go.
Perfect.
Great.
It looks like your breathing is returning to normal.
Courtesy of Wendy and my two new confectioners.
I called and they came and fixed the oven, started working their magic.
They really picked up the slack.
That's wonderful.
But to prevent the stricture from forming again, we need to deal with the underlying cause, your stress.
Well, now that I'm not trying to do everything myself, I'm actually okay with being bossy.
Here.
Taste this.
Oh.
It's too sweet.
Believe it or not, the secret to sweetness is actually salt.
Here, I'll show you.
I got a good deal, too.
The guy waived his commission.
I cleaned everything as best as I could.
I hope I got everything.
You missed two things.
You didn't have to do that.
I don't even know why I brought them.
I was being pushy.
No, you you were nesting.
That's what pregnant women do, according to my research.
You're also experiencing an increase in progesterone and estrogen levels.
I think you're right.
I've had nesting on my brain.
But this is your home, and I'm intruding.
You can stay here as long as you need to.
As long as you want to.
I know how particular you are about your space.
I want to work on that.
Are you sure? Well, I'll be a better guest.
Hank.
- Hey.
- Hey.
The hospital told me you were here.
- Mm-hmm.
- That's a nice room.
Yeah, I've been here so long they let me redecorate.
So I hear we finally have a deal.
Yeah, now all we need is an actual contract.
Signed, sealed, and delivered.
Hey, is that the messenger? Is that I think you're gonna be very pleased - with what we worked out.
- I know I am.
Ah.
- You said "get a room.
" - Would you be a dear and get me a turkey sandwich from room service? Light on the mayo, extra mustard, and bread and butter pickles? - Absolutely.
- Thank you.
Okay, get that look off your face.
We are consenting adults, and our Hankmed business is handled.
- I didn't say anything.
- No, you didn't have to.
Welcome to my personal life.
I make sure that I get my fair share of fun whether it makes sense on paper or not.
Are you gonna stay for room service? Uh, actually, I think I'll take a rain check on that, but maybe we'll all grab a drink later.
- Yeah, that sounds fun.
- Okay.
I look forward to working with you and with Symphony.
Aw.
Oh, by the way, don't you have a patient in Hungary? Why? I just got the weirdest phone call from a doctor in Budapest about a clinical trial, and he mentioned you.
Yeah, my European patient's interested in a local trial.
What did you tell the doctor? I said I didn't know anything about it.
But that if Hank Lawson is involved, I'm sure it's great.
- Thank you.
- Mm-hmm.
Enjoy your bread and butter pickles.
Okay.
You know it kind of grows on you.
- Art can do that.
- Hmm.
Is it part of a collection? Is there, like, an orange circle or a blue triangle? I've always wanted a green crescent.
That's why I'm asking.
Are you comparing our piece to lucky charms? How did you catch that? Yes! Mm.
All right.
So, took us a while, but I'm really glad we're finally doing this.
Me too.
Budgets are important.
Here.
Okay.
Um, does that look like a reasonable amount to spend on entertainment every month? Yeah, looks good to me.
If we want to spend more, we'll just talk to each other about it first.
Exactly.
All right, next category, beauty products.
- Mm-hmm.
- Ooh.
Skin care looks a little high.
Um, I'm gonna ask you to take your hand and rub the back of it on my face, gently.
- Ooh, say no more.
- That's what I'm talking about.
Okay, moving right along.
- To us.
- Cheers.
To the newest members of Symphony Health, I want to be the first to say welcome to the family.
Thank you, Shelby.
We are so excited to be on board.
I want to thank both of you for going above and beyond the call of duty and hammering out the finer points of this new relationship.
Oh, Evan, you have no idea.
This deal must be very different from your usual sports deals.
- No, negotiating's negotiating.
- Yeah.
When you're the best at what you do, it doesn't matter if it's an athlete's contract or Hank's.
Wow, you're really a legend in your own mind, huh? Uh-huh.
Yeah, of course.
I understand.
What's up? That was Boris.
Everything all right? The men he had trailing Milos lost track of him.
Maybe I screwed up.
Maybe I maybe I gave Milos too much information.
You think he got suspicious of the plan? I hope not.
What if he figured out Boris is alive? If he did, what do we do? I don't know, Evan.
I don't know.
I mean, I've never done something like this before.
Well, we know what happened to the last guy Milos got suspicious of.
He had him killed.
Actually, he did it himself.
In the middle of the street.
