A Million Little Things (2018) s05e09 Episode Script

1
This is my son.
Your dad must be so happy.
His dad just passed away.
Previously on
"A Million Little Things"
I am not a girl.
Do you think that you could
talk to my parents for me?
I think you both could use
some more of that special time.
It's time to start talking
about assisted living.
It seems like you two
have this all worked out.
We do, Pop.
Okay, then.
I want to take Charlie
and go back to France.
They've been away for so long now,
it feels like I've missed my shot.
It's never too late.
Oh, hey, D, there's
actually something I want
to talk to you about.
I want Charlie to come visit me.
How has it been having her back?
Amazing.
Danny. Everything okay?
DANNY: Something is
really wrong with Charlie.
[LAUGHTER ON TELEVISION]
What does a yellow light mean?
- [DOOR OPENS]
- BOBBY: Slow down.
- [DOOR CLOSES]
- REVEREND JIM: Okay.
[WOMAN LAUGHS ON TELEVISION]
[DISTORTED] What
[LAUGHTER ON TELEVISION]
Dad.
- What's going on?
- [SIGHS]
- Is he crying?
- [SNIFFLES]
No.
[SIGHS] No, I just
I just had a weird dream.
Oh.
Just go back to sleep.
[SIGHS]
Mm.
[EXHALES DEEPLY]
[SIGHS HEAVILY]
I wanna be different ♪
Thanks again for
driving the first shift,
and for filming the show this weekend.
And for not filming the after-party.
Hey, I'm just happy Morgan
found some Pepto last night.
Almost was a very different show.
[CHUCKLES] Yeah, well,
the point is, thank you.
Hey, it worked out for me, too.
I get a free ride
home with all my stuff.
Oh, this is your stuff? Oh, God.
I thought I was unwittingly
harboring a serial killer.
I had to pack up my entire
dorm room for the summer.
Not everyone can fit everything
into a tiny backpack, Polly Pocket.
[CHUCKLES]
I mean, do you even know
what's in all of these?
I know one of them
is filled with Halloween candy
that I won't be sharing
if you keep giving me attitude.
Halloween candy?
It is June.
See, that right there?
Yeah, you're done.
That just cost you
some perfectly good Laffy Taffy.
[CHUCKLES]
EDDIE: Yeah, Danny.
They said it was a pretty
severe ear infection,
and they gave her
something to help her sleep.
DANNY: I wish they would
have given me something
to help me sleep after all that.
It was terrifying.
I'll grab us a couple coffees,
and I'll meet you at the hospital.
No. Thanks.
You were up with her all night.
Uh, hey, the doctor's here.
I will, uh, call you as soon
as I get an update, okay?
Get some rest.
Well, the good news is her
fever's gone down a bit.
Pain meds seem to be helping.
I am glad it was just an ear infection.
I gotta admit, I was freaking
out a little bit there.
Well, unfortunately,
we're not out of the woods yet.
I reviewed the results of her CAT scan,
and there's some
swelling behind her ear.
What does that mean?
The infection has spread
to the back of her ear bone
and created a small abscess.
But, luckily, we've caught it early,
but we'll need to get her
into surgery to drain it.
Surgery? As in, you
need to put her under?
Yes.
Look, her mom is on a
flight from France right now.
Is there any chance we can wait
to discuss this with her?
Actually, I suggest we get her
in as soon as possible.
I checked, and the doctor
who I would recommend do this surgery
has an opening this afternoon.
Ah.
[INHALES DEEPLY] Okay, let's do it.
Good.
It's unbelievable how busy we are.
We just had a birthday party
for our longest resident,
Gretchen. [CHUCKLES]
She turned 106.
She's been here longer than I have.
106. That's amazing. Isn't it, Pop?
That's amazing.
Does she have anything
to do with the smell of
What is that?
Urine and oatmeal?
He's just joking. He's got this
Always had this weird sense of humor.
Oh, I-I-I love humor.
Have you two ever heard
of Mervin the Magician?
Comes here a few times a year
to do a show for our residents.
He has this handkerchief
that he pulls out of his mouth,
[LAUGHING] and it goes on and on and on.
[QUIETLY] Speaking of going on and on
Cracks me up every time. [LAUGHS]
And that's just one of the activities
that's covered in our monthly fees.
Come on. I'll show you our model suite.
WOMAN: I got it. I got it.
ROME: Hey, Pop?
[CHUCKLING] You comin'?
MAN #3: Get it, Henry.
WOMAN: Oh, you missed it.
[INDISTINCT CONVERSATION CONTINUES]
GARY: No, don't get the book.
- I'm getting the book.
- Please don't get the book.
She She got the book.
We need the book.
You had a dream about your dad.
We have to analyze it.
There's no need to analyze anything,
because while,
technically, it was a dream,
it actually happened.
There is a whole chapter on that.
Bloom, step away from the dream journal.
Fine. But at least
Just tell me what it was.
Fine. [CHUCKLES]
Remember I told you,
the night I went over to Peter's,
I went to my Dad's after?
Mm-hmm.
Well, that was the dream I had.
Went to his place to pick up my laptop.
He was sitting on the couch,
waiting for me.
I sat next to him, just the two of us,
watching "Taxi." [SCOFFS]
- The TV show?
- Yeah.
It was the scene where Reverend Jim
was getting his driver's license.
Oh, I love that episode.
He was such a stoner.
- [AS REVEREND JIM] "Okie doke."
- [CHUCKLES]
[NORMAL VOICE] Man, Christopher Lloyd
is great in everything he does.
Anyway, that's it.
That was the dream.
We sat there watching together,
and then I woke up.
It was just
It was so vivid, man.
It It felt real.
Mm.
Mm-hmm.
Alright, I I see you, Miss Cleo.
You're just bursting
at the seams over there.
Go ahead. Why don't you tell me
You had that dream because
tomorrow is Father's Day,
and that was your dad
sending you a message
that he is still here with you.
[SMACKS LIPS] Alright.
Think about it.
That was one of the
worst nights of your life,
and that dream is your
dad letting you know
that everything is gonna be okay.
Listen, Bloom
What you do with recreational drugs
on your own time is your business.
Just tell me that you
weren't dropping acid
when you were pregnant with my son.
You can choose not to
believe it, but I do.
Dodging the question.
Well played, Reverend Jim.
[AS REVEREND JIM] "Okie doke."
[NORMAL VOICE] I'm coming, son.
Daddy's here.
SANDRA: Okay, here it is.
This is our standard studio suite.
[CHUCKLES] Wow.
This is really nice.
Right, Pop?
Your Grandma Celia died on a bed
with this exact comforter.
- How'd you get it?
- Dad.
W-Well, most of our residents
bring in their own furniture.
This is just a basic layout.
Right. The model unit.
Doesn't that mean this is supposed to be
the nicest one?
Hey, Sandra, could we get
a copy of the floor plan
so that I can see what
furniture of his will fit?
Sure. I'll go grab it.
Why bother? Any standard-size coffin
should fit in here just fine.
I'll be right back.
What are you doing?
If you keep that up,
they won't let you in.
Oh, no.
Does that mean I'll miss
Mervin the Magnificent?
You said you were open
to looking at places.
I am, but if this place
were any more depressing,
I'd need some of your happy pills.
[SIGHS]
We're gonna have to keep looking.
Dad, this is the fifth
place we've looked at,
and you've had a problem with every one.
There's no more looking.
Plus, this is the only place
left with a slot available.
Well, my only problem with this place
is that there's a slot available.
[SANDRA CLEARS THROAT]
[CHUCKLES AWKWARDLY]
Lovely place.
Really like it.
Nice.
Look what I found.
[SIGHS] You're incredible.
Where did you find that?
I sweet-talked an orderly
into telling me
they sell them in the gift shop.
[BOTH CHUCKLE]
Thanks again for being here, Nicole.
I told the guys to stand down,
but it is really nice
having some company.
I know how scary it is
to do the parenting thing on your own.
So I'm happy to help.
[ELEVATOR BELL DINGS]
You're welcome. Bye.
Hi, I'm looking for Charlie
uh, Charlotte Dixon.
She's a patient here.
Yeah, she went back for surgery
about a half hour ago.
But that's her mom and
dad right over there.
I wouldn't say no to a tip.
[BOTH LAUGH]
No, actually, I'm
Forget it. Thanks.
[LAUGHS]
Oh, um Oh, D.
Thank God. Did you get my messages?
You mean your text messages
that you sent me telling me
Charlie was going into surgery?
Yes, I got them,
and I called you like three times,
and it kept going to voicemail.
Ah, sorry, the phone died.
How could you agree to surgery
without talking to me first?
Well, there was no time.
What do you mean, there was no time?
Uh, a spot opened up.
The doctor didn't want us to wait.
I'm sorry. Who are you?
Uh, D, this is Nicole.
She's been helping me with Charlie.
Oh.
I should go.
Probably.
[LUGGAGE WHEELS RATTLE]
This is for Charlie, for
when she wakes up.
Thank you.
And I'm sorry.
How dare you come in here
and tell what's best for Charlie.
Eddie, put yourself in my shoes, okay?
One minute, I'm on an airplane,
and then, the next minute,
my daughter is in surgery.
Your daughter? That's the problem.
She's our daughter, D,
but the second Charlie was born,
you acted like you're the
mom and I'm the babysitter.
[SIGHS] That is so unfair.
Yes, it is unfair!
'Cause I'm her dad!
So, if I need to make a medical decision
based on the advice
of a qualified doctor
and the fact that our child is in pain,
that's exactly what I'm gonna do!
[DOOR CLOSES]
- Okay, okay. I got one.
- Okay.
Perfect in every way.
This guy is undeniably
the love of your life.
You're so into him, it's insane.
But every time you have sex,
as soon as it's over,
he calls his mom.
Is that a dealbreaker?
Okay, wait wait, so he's
He's calling his mom
to talk about the sex we just had, or
What is the context of the call?
Oh, he just wants to check in.
She was on his mind.
That is a dealbreaker.
- Sophie Dixon!
- No.
This This guy is your soulmate.
You've written songs about him.
Okay, okay.
How soon after?
Oh, still out of breath.
No, that is a no-go!
No, no, no, no, no!
Total no-go.
Touchdown!
Alright, nobody come in the bedroom
for the next 15 minutes.
Ooh, Mommy's either wrapping
Father's Day presents
or pretty obviously cheating on Daddy.
- What do you think?
- Ha.
If it's Eddie, use protection.
Our friend group can't
afford another love child.
- Oof.
- [CHUCKLING] Ooh-hoo-hoo.
Daddy's still got his good stuff.
[CACKLES] Alright.
I'm gonna tell you a
story about a man named
Wait for it
Jed.
It's a pretty sad tale.
This poor guy in the mountains
A mountaineer, if you will.
He can barely keep his family fed.
Then one day and this
is crazy, but it's true,
and it rhymes Our protagonist, Jed,
was out shooting food,
when, from the ground,
came a bubbling crude.
Don't worry.
I'm not gonna leave out the best part,
'cause I'm sure you're wondering
what a bubbling crude is.
Well, it's oil, son.
It's black gold, Texas tea.
It writes itself.
Hmm.
What are you looking at?
- Huh?
- [JAVI BABBLES]
That's my dad.
That's who you're named after.
You two actually have a lot in common.
When you both eat, more food
ends up on you than in you.
Yeah. [CHUCKLES]
Really wish you got to meet him.
You would have loved him,
almost as much as he
would have loved you, mijo.
[JAVI GIGGLES]
That's your number?
Mm-hmm. Yep.
Let me just make sure you
understand the question.
The question was, "If
you were kidnapped,
what's the lowest amount
your ransom could be set at
that wouldn't be offensive?"
Yes, I know, and my answer
still stays the same
$50 million.
Oh, what? So you you
don't think I'm worth it?
You hesitated! Come on.
[GIGGLES] I-I did not hesitate.
Excuse me, Your Highness.
You realize Patty Hearst's
ransom was $6 million, right?
Yeah, and that was in the '70s.
I had to adjust for inflation.
- Oh, inflation. Ah, okay.
- Mm-hmm.
No, wait. No, no, no.
Don't use autofill.
You have to fill it up slowly,
because otherwise, you're just
gonna end up paying for gas
that's not even going in the car.
The octane vaporizes.
Okay, that's not a thing.
Yes, it is.
I will get you a giant Slurpee right now
if you can tell me what
octane is without Googling it.
Fine. Octane is, obviously,
the thing in the gas that
Thing in the gas that?
Octivates the fuel.
- Come on.
- Octivates?
Yeah. Okay.
Looks like we're going
Dutch on the Slurpees.
But, hey,
you're worth $50 million.
Pretty sure you can afford it.
Uh, Daddy. [SCOFFS]
Did you know that our
son is already talking?
I did not, but I like that
you're calling me Daddy.
[AS JAVI] Okay, Daddy,
don't nake it neird.
[CHUCKLES]
That's so stupid. [SCOFFS]
[NORMAL VOICE]
Don't call our son stupid.
[AS JAVI] Yeah, don't call me stupid.
[SCOFFS] I would never call you stupid.
[KNOCK ON DOOR]
[GASPS WITH NORMAL VOICE]
[AS JAVI] Who could that be?
You're surprisingly good at that.
[LAUGHS WITH NORMAL VOICE]
Your talk show has guests, huh?
[NORMAL VOICE] Mm-hmm.
Dan Dixon.
What are you doing here?
Um
I, um I-I-I was on my way to the
The the dog park,
and then I realized,
"Hey, I don't have a dog,
but do you know who does?
- My old pal"
- Why don't you just say
that she called you to come cheer me up
because tomorrow's Father's Day?
[AS JAVI] See, I told you
he wouldn't question it.
[CHUCKLES]
[KNOCK ON DOOR]
[CHUCKLING] Oh, wow.
Look at you with that diploma.
So, you gonna frame it
or you gonna carry it
- with you everywhere you go?
- I don't know.
Maybe I'll get two and do both.
[BOTH LAUGH]
I, uh I just wanted to
catch you before you left,
let you know how much
you've meant to me this year.
Wait, wait, hold that thought,
because I really want
to hear how great I am.
Oh, it's Gina.
One second.
Hey, babe, what's up?
When you took your dad
on that tour this morning,
I thought they told you
they had a slot open.
Yeah, they they did. Why?
[SIGHS] I just called to make a deposit,
and Sandra said they
didn't have any more rooms.
She said she could
put him on a waitlist.
The waitlist? No, no, no.
She told me
Oh, my God.
He tanked it.
Hold on.
Maddox, it's about my dad.
Can I call you later?
Of course. Good luck.
Thank you.
Unbelievable!
That was the only
assisted-living facility
within a 30-mile radius
that still had an opening,
and he tanked it, deliberately.
[SIGHS] I don't know
what I'm gonna do, Gina.
We're out of options.
You sure you don't want any nachos?
Oh, no, no. Uh, actually,
after watching that,
I might never eat again.
- Come on, just
- No, I'm good.
The smell of that cheese is pungent.
Maybe it's the octane.
Well, excuse you. [CHUCKLES]
Okay, where did you even hear that?
[CHUCKLES] My dad taught me.
He always had these life hacks.
Like, you know, if you ever want
to take the leaves off of rosemary,
you just pull the steam
through a colander.
How often did your dad use rosemary?
[BOTH CHUCKLE]
What? Did your parents ever
teach you any life hacks?
Besides avoiding deportation?
Oh, well, that's better
than the colander trick.
Uh, my dad died
when my mom was still pregnant with me.
I never got the chance to meet him.
Well, that must be tough.
Honestly, it's kinda hard
to miss someone I never knew.
Yeah.
I don't know if it's
better to have the memories
or if, sometimes, I wish I never did.
How'd you find out?
Okay, I'm sorry.
- You don't have to answer
- No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
No, it's okay. It's
I was in school.
Um, honestly, just like any other day.

I was in my third-period music class.

I was so excited to

Sophie, please stop playing.
[SOMBER MUSIC PLAYS]
Your mom's here.
Mom?
DELILAH: Honey, it's Dad.
I didn't find out until after that he
You know, how it happened. [SNIFFLES]
[EXHALES DEEPLY]
I'm so sorry, Soph.
I'm sorry you didn't get to sing
that song for your dad.
Actually, I did.
I sang it for him at his funeral.
Quite a bit after a bit of
GARY: Mnh-mnh.
Was there always a TV there?
Yeah, nothing gets by you.
I made a very strong argument to Maggie
for why we needed an air hockey table.
We compromised and
got the TV she wanted.
MAN: Well, boys, looks like
they're headed for the canyon!
- [HORSE WHINNIES]
- Let's ride! Yah!
WOMAN: This entire collection
of fabulous face cream
MAN: Roger that. Fighters on
the move. Vortex is closing.
Oh, my God! Just Just
pick a channel, any channel.
What happened to young,
sweet, zit-faced Danny?
Huh? You've changed.
Here. Knock yourself out.
Whatever the next channel is,
we're gonna watch it
and we're gonna love it.
[SIGHS]
What does a yellow light mean?
Oh, my God.
- Give me that.
- What?
Nothing, it's nothing. Nothing.
Nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing.
No. Not nothing.
- Something!
- Watch out.
My My baby mama
just took a tab of acid.
No, Bloom, that is not my
dad trying to talk to me.
It totally is, Mendez.
Okay, what's happening?
Okay, last night,
he had a dream that he and his dad
were watching this exact scene,
and just now, you
guys happened to choose
the channel that it is on.
That seems like more
than a coincidence to me.
It should be noted that that's probably
one of the 10 most popular
scenes in sitcom history,
so, I don't know,
I'm not sure if that's my dad
trying to tap me on the shoulder.
Why are you making it so hard
for your dad to get through to you?
The guy just died. He's exhausted.
How much more on the
nose does he have to be?
Alright. Danny, you're
gonna have to be the tie
Please don't make me the tie breaker.
It's gotta be you.
Look, Javi's not even on solids.
Yeah. Alright.
Dan Dixon.
Dan Dixon?
That's what I call him.
That's his name.
Okay, how popular is this TV show?
[CHUCKLES]
- I mean, it's old.
- Ooh, good question.
On Entertainment Weekly's
list of the 100 most popular
shows of all time, it ranks
above "Frasier"
"Muppet Show," "Survivor"
Which is probably why
it's on TV somewhere in the world
every second of every day.
Yeah, no, I'm sorry, Maggie,
I'm gonna have to go with coincidence.
Well, don't apologize to me.
Apologize to his dead dad,
who has been working his ass off
to try to get a message to you.
Dead dad? That's what I call him!
- [CHUCKLES]
- Ugh!
Stick with dudes.
[LAUGHS]
Huh?
Charlie did incredibly well.
They were able to drain the
abscess without any trouble.
She'll probably be sleeping off and on
for the rest of the day,
and she should feel better in no time.
Oh, thank you.
But it's a good thing we
got her in when we did.
Once it spreads beyond the ear,
it can progress to other areas,
like even the brain.
Oh, thank you. Thank you so much.
Mm.
[MONITOR BEEPING]
Hey, I'm I'm really sorry
for being so terrible earlier.
I just was worried,
and not being able to see her, and I
I'm I'm sorry, too.
How about we make a pact
that we are both allowed to be terrible
when our daughter is in the hospital?
[CHUCKLES] Deal.
So, who's this sweet woman you're seeing
that I so rudely scared off?
I mean, she clearly has great
taste in stuffed animals.
You mean Nicole?
And I'm not seeing her.
We're just friends.
CHARLIE: Maman?
Hey. You did so good.
I'm okay.
Oh. [CHUCKLES]
[SNIFFLES]
I'm so glad you're okay.
ROME: Hey, Maddox. What are you?
Clark? W-What's going on?
C-Come in. Sorry. Come in. Please.
Uh, sorry to show up unannounced.
I just I wanted to thank you again
for everything this year.
Um, I I really don't
know if I would have gotten
to where I am if it weren't for you.
Yeah, you You really helped us.
And tomorrow is Father's Day,
so I just wanted to say thanks.
Aw, guys. Thank you.
But that's not the
only reason we're here.
I heard you talking to Gina earlier
about your dad not getting
into that living facility.
And you want to take him for me?
That is really generous.
Thank you so much.
Okay. Maybe not that.
Uh, but we do have
something just as good.
I'm on the board of
Lakeview Senior Living.
I'm not sure if you're familiar with it?
Oh, we're familiar with it.
Yeah. One of the nicest places we saw.
In fact, my dad even liked it.
You know, that waiting
list is like a mile long.
It is.
But I put a call in to the director,
and Connie said they have a vacancy.
Before they go to the waitlist,
shes's willing to give
the spot to your dad,
if you want it.
He's kidding, right?
Y-You're kidding right?
Of course we want it.
The only thing is, you'd
have to move him in right away
so it seems like he was next in line.
Wow. Guys
[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]
I don't know what to say.
It's the least we can do
after everything you've done for us.
This is so much nicer
than the gift card Brie got me.
[CHUCKLES] Thank you.
Thank you.
Hey, if we're up and
on the road by 9:00,
you can make it back home in time
for Father's Day dinner with Rome.
Oh, great.
You have toothpaste I can borrow?
You don't have any toothpaste?
We've been on the road for two days.
[CHUCKLES] Wow. So judgy.
Mine ran out this morning.
Okay, well, I'm just saying,
you have a lot of Halloween candy
for someone with no toothpaste.
[BOTH CHUCKLE]
Fine, come get your glob.
Okay.
What?
[LAUGHING] What on earth are those?
[AS GROGU] Love my Grogu boxers, I do.
[BOTH CHUCKLE]
[NORMAL VOICE] These are the
only clean ones I have left.
Perfect in every way,
but that's why I have
a lot of garbage bags.
They're all full of laundry.
Mm.
Is that a dealbreaker?
[BREATHES SHAKILY]
Sorry. I
Wait, wait, wait.
Are you sure you're okay with this?
- I'm sure.
- Okay.
Hello.
Hi.
[BOTH CHUCKLE]
How long have you been watching me?
Eh, about 90 minutes?
[CHUCKLES] I'm kidding.
Well, a minute or two.
You look cute when you're sleeping.
Well, I wouldn't know.
I've never seen it.
[BOTH CHUCKLE]
- Thank you.
- No problem.
So, last night was fun.
It was fun, wasn't it?
Mm-hmm.
[CELLPHONE RINGS]
Oh.
[SIGHS]
Uh, okay, hold on a second.
It's Gina.
That's a dealbreaker.
Oh, okay, for the
record, I didn't call her.
She called me, and technically,
- she's not my mom.
- Mm-hmm.
Well, don't let it go to voicemail.
- Okay.
- Come on.
Okay.
Hey, Gina.
No, no, we're up.
We've been up.
TYRELL: Yeah, we're just
about to get back on the road.
We should be home in a few hours?
[CHUCKLES]
Yeah, I-I can't wait to see you, too.
I missed you guys so much.
DANNY: It was nice of Maggie
to let us sneak away during nap time.
Yeah, definitely made the
right choice coming here
to take our minds off Father's Day.
Father's Day.
- Father's Day.
- Happy Father's Day.
See what I did? I took
the happy out of it.
Smart.
Happy Father's Day.
Table for two?
- Yes, please.
- Perfect.
I have a busboy cleaning
off a two-top right now.
Oh, uh, do you think we
could have a booth, actually?
Oh, sorry.
Because it's such a busy day,
we have to reserve the booths
for parties of three or more.
Well, we would be a party
of three, but my dad died.
Yeah. Like, he he just died.
Actually, we would have
been a party of four,
but my dad died, too.
And that happened when he was 11.
How sad is that?
- Really sad.
- Super sad.
Not as sad as this being
his first Father's Day
- without his old man.
- Ah, it's okay.
I'll just make it all about
me being a dad to my new baby.
[CHUCKLES] He got me this.
Yeah, 'cause the real #1 died.
- And my dad.
- That's right.
So I moved up a couple notches.
Let me see about that booth.
Ah, you're so kind. Thank you.
Our dads would have loved you.
I'm getting French toast.
Yeah, totally French toast.
Hey, Dad, have you read this?
I lost my reading glasses.
Why didn't you tell me?
Since when do you listen to me?
Fine. I'll read it for you.
They have a walking club
at 9:30 every morning,
or you can do water
aerobics in the indoor pool.
Dad, this this place is perfect.
The kitchen staff is available 24/7.
They've got a movie room downstairs.
What more could you possibly want?
You can try to sell me on
this place all you like,
but all you're doing
it putting me somewhere
I don't want to be
because you don't want to deal with me.
You know it's not like that.
What is it like?
How would you like to live here?
I didn't think so.
DELILAH: Third nap today.
Can't wait for Charlie
to be up at 3:00 a.m.
Thank you for letting
me have her for so long.
It really means everything to me.
I'm not "letting you."
She is your daughter.
Our daughter.
[CELLPHONE BUZZES]
Oh. It's Nicole.
Oh.
Tell her I say hi.
[CHUCKLES]
- Hey.
- NICOLE: Hey. Is she up?
- Yeah, she's doing great.
- I'm gonna come, okay?
No. N-No need to leave work.
- D and I got it covered.
- Okay.
- Thank you for everything, though.
- Oh, my God.
Oh, oh, oh.
And Charlie loves the
little stuffed turtle.
- Aww.
- She named it Shelly.
She's doing this little dance.
We're calling it the Shelly Shuffle.
I need to send you a video.
This thing is going to go viral.
- Y-Yes. Totally.
- I'd love to see it.
Alright. I have to go, though, okay?
Okay. Um, well, thanks for checking in.
- I'm gonna call you later.
- Okay.
Alright, bye.
Pretty good friend.
[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]
You know, missing work
to be there for you
and buying your daughter gifts,
making you laugh.
Yeah, she's incredible,
but it's really not like that.
Why not?
I mean, she seems great.
Charlie obviously likes her.
And, you know,
even though she caught me
at a pretty angry moment,
it didn't escape me that
she's also quite beautiful.
Yeah.
But it's complicated.
More complicated than us?
Believe it or not, it is.
[CHUCKLES]
How is that possible?
Nicole's the person who hit me.
I bet these are the first clean sheets
Tyrell's slept on since
he left for college.
He used sheets, right?
Lie to me if you have to.
I put my dad in a home on Father's Day.
Do I get like a "Best Sons
Ever" plaque or something?
- Rome.
- What? He said it himself.
I-I don't know if I'm
putting him in there
because it's what's best for him
or because it's what's best for me.
You know, when I left him there,
he didn't even fight me on it,
as if he just gave up.
Finally, he does what I ask him to,
for the first time ever,
and I still feel bad.
If you want to go get
him and bring him here,
I think you should.
No. G-Gina. What about Tyrell?
We don't have enough room for everyone.
We'll make it work.
Just go get your dad.
I love you.
I'll go get the grumpy old man.
How on earth can you be friends with her
after what she did,
after what she put you through?
It wasn't doing anyone any good
for me to keep being
angry about what happened.
And in order for me to
move on from the accident,
I needed to forgive her, too.
And she's a good person.
[SCOFFS]
No, D, she is.
She just made a mistake.
A terrible one.
Yeah, and if anyone knows
anything about that, it's us.
All the hurt we caused
all the people we loved.
How could I expect to get forgiveness
if I couldn't give it to someone else?
Wow, I
I don't know that I I'd be
able to do what you're doing.
[CHUCKLES]
Honestly, I didn't know
if I was gonna be able to, either.
But she owned her mistake.
And the more time I spend with her,
she's pretty incredible.
[CHUCKLES]
What?
Nothing. Nothing.
It's just, just from what I've seen,
I-I think that she wants to
be more than just friends,
and from listening to the
way you talk about her,
I'm wondering if maybe
that's what you want, too.
D, I am telling you,
it is not like that.
Okay, yeah, I know. You're
just two very attractive,
close friends who spend
a ton of time together.
[CHUCKLES]
Look, all I'm saying
is, if you do like her,
I'm pretty sure she likes you back.
And even though it's complicated,
that's never stopped you before.
[BOTH CHUCKLE]
So, I don't know, if that's
something that you want,
I think that you should consider it.
You deserve to be happy.
And that's just it.
I mean, think about it.
Why haven't they made a good umbrella?
They're always such a hassle.
I mean, they get wet,
then you gotta put them down somewhere,
and then you forget them.
Okay.
Here's my idea.
From now on, no one anywhere
owns their own umbrella.
Ah, I see where you're going,
and I love it.
World becomes a huge
take-a-penny, leave-a-penny jar.
It's raining outside, there's a
There's an umbrella by the door,
you have at it.
And that is why you're #1 Dad.
That's beautiful.
You're solving a problem
while at the same time
inherently making us all a community.
- Well, thank you for getting it, Dan.
- Cheers.
Oops.
MAN: I got it.
- Thank you.
- Thank you very much.
No problem.
Happy Father's Day.
Did you see who that was?
Yeah.
Yeah, I change my vote.
I believe.
[CLICKS TONGUE] Hey, Dad?
Hey, Pop?
Hey, excuse me.
Have you seen the grumpy guy
that just moved in here?
Oh, he's long gone.
E-Excuse me.
Um, one of your newer tenants,
I believe, has gone missing.
Taller Black gentleman.
WALTER: "That's amazing.
Just one pill a day
and your memory's improved?
- What's it called?"
- He looks just like that.
- Thank you.
- "Um. Hey, Rose?
"What's the name of those pills
I take for my memory?"
[LAUGHTER]
Dad.
Rome. What are you doing back here?
I wanted to wish you
a Happy Father's Day.
Well, isn't that sweet?
That table's for making out,
and this table's for playing cards.
[ALL CHUCKLE]
Son, meet Tyrone Colchester.
Hey, we went to high school together.
Where he got us suspended for a week
after that senior prank we pulled.
You got suspended?!
Tell him how.
We stole three goats from
the local petting zoo.
No, wait, wait, I-I need
Uh, excuse me, Tyrone,
this man broke a rule?
That's not the half of it.
We painted numbers on them.
1, 2, and 4.
Then we released them into the school.
[LAUGHTER]
They spent half a day
looking for goat number three!
[LAUGHTER]
Come on, son, sit down.
We'll deal you in.
Did you bring any cash?
I don't think I'm gonna need any.
[LAUGHTER]
Is this the handsome one?
No, that's the other one.
[LAUGHS]
I'll deal.
EDDIE: Thanks for meeting me.
NICOLE: Is everything okay?
Look, you have been
absolutely incredible,
showing up for me and Charlie,
but I think maybe I've
been leaning on you
a little too much,
and I know I said I wanted
to be friends, and I do,
but, uh, I feel like maybe I've been
giving you some mixed signals.
Honestly, um
I think I have been, too.
After my marriage,
I never thought I would meet anyone
who would be as nice to me as you are.
But I know it's more
complicated than that.
It is.
I was talking to Delilah,
and she was wondering if maybe
there was something more going on here,
and I just realized I needed to be
as honest with you as possible,
because I know you've been hurt,
and I do not want to be
another person who hurts you.
Can I ask you something?
Of course.
Why didn't things work out
with you and Delilah?
Well, I think, for us
[INHALES DEEPLY]
The timing was just never right.
Well, for what it's worth,
I can tell how much you care about her.
So, if your timing ever does work out,
don't run away from that.
Well, thanks to you, I literally can't.
[LAUGHS]
I walked right into that.
Walked? Now you're just being mean.
- [CHUCKLES] Okay. You got it?
- Yeah.
Well, this is me.
Oh, this one?
This one?
Wait, no, you live with Rome and Regina?
I love them. They're good people.
[CHUCKLES] Okay.
Listen, uh, thanks again for last night.
I had a lot of fun.
Um, actually, can
Can we keep what
happened just between us?
Y-Yeah, we can
Oh, my God.
You're back.
Hi, Soph. You wanna come in?
Uh, no, no, it's okay.
I want to go see Charlie and my mom.
Oh, my goodness. Look at you.
- I want to hear
- See you later, Tyrell.
Y I'll see
Are you hungry?
Because I made your favorite meal.
Get inside.
You know, I have missed you so much.
Now, are you getting taller?
I'm getting shorter.
I'm getting shorter. Come on.
[SIGHS]
- Hey.
- Hey.
Is Charlie asleep?
Yeah.
What is this?
That is your Father's Day gift.
Charlie made it for you.
Oh, and then you wrapped it.
[CHUCKLES]
She wanted to do it all by herself.
Be careful, because
it goes from gift wrap
to gift very fast.
Hmm.
[LAUGHING] Oh! Wow.
- Aww!
- Look at that.
And the big peanut That's me.
And is this my wheelchair
or the Batmobile?
Hmm. You tell me, Bruce Wayne.
[BOTH CHUCKLE]
She wanted you to
have a family portrait.
Happy Father's Day.
Uh, I'm gonna go
because Sophie got home,
and, uh, I'll see you tomorrow.
- Yeah.
- Okay.
I'll, uh
I'll check in with you, and, um
Hey, I just
I wanted to say that I'm really sorry
for taking so much time
with Charlie away from you.
Thank you for saying that.
And I know it took a lot
for you to forgive Nicole.
And And I hope, one day
One day, you can forgive me, too.
And it's me you need to show ♪
How deep is your love? ♪
That is amazing.
See, I told you that your dad
was trying to send you a message.
- All you had to do was listen.
- If you think this was my dad
popping in to say hello,
I'm sorry, but I do not agree.
Are you kidding me?
How can you still not believe that?
Because after today,
I know that he's with me all the time.
That's so sweet.
Yeah.
Reminds me of this dream that
I used to have when I
was a little girl
- Where my grandma
- Ooh. Sorry, one second.
Wha Uh, he's still here.
- Oh, good.
- And he's saying something, but
Papa, what are you saying?
He's saying, uh, "Mijo, if you love me
and yourself,
you will run, not walk,
from this woo-woo dream
that your girlfriend is
about to bore you with."
- Woo-woo?
- His words.
That does sound exactly like him.
- Ah.
- Come on.
We spent like two whole
days on your dream.
You're the one who said
the man was exhausted
and I need to listen to him.
Wait, hold up. Uh, Papa?
Yeah, go for Gary.
Okay, really fun.
You guys have fun.
Goodnight.
