Royal Pains s06e13 Episode Script

Ganging Up

Previoly on Royal Pains I am purchasing Hamptons Heritage.
I would like all of you to serve on the hospital's board of directors.
I'm afraid my answer's no.
I'm sorry.
You hired the lawyer, the one that helped Viviana.
I had to do something to make up for interfering.
I sold those pictures to Snarkhampton.
You sold a misleading picture of Hank, one that could seriously damage his reputation.
We need to clear some things up.
Yeah.
Yeah, I would love that.
That sounds great.
Oh, you mean right now? Emma took her new car for a spin.
She didn't come back.
All her stuff is gone, and so is she.
No new posts on her Twitter, Instagram, or Tumblr feeds.
- Anything? - She's not at Cinco's.
Okay.
Thank you.
Fortunately, she's not at the hospital either.
Officer Don says he'll keep an eye out.
What? That's the best the cops could do? Well, he also gave me some advice.
- Which was? - Try her social media, any guys she's been seeing, and the hospital.
I just I can't believe I let this happen.
Hank, this is not your fault.
Well, my fault or not, she's gone.
She's out there, all on her own.
Okay, but this is not some helpless little girl that we are talking about.
But take it from a woman who knows a thing or two about being independent.
Emma's tough, and she will be fine until she wants to be found.
Thank you, but I still need to make it right with her.
Hank, when you checked Emma's room, you missed a spot.
- She left this.
- Oh.
Actually, it's addressed to Evan.
Oh.
What is it, a note? It's money.
Money? It's the exact amount I gave her when I When you tried to bribe her to stay.
All right, we need to step this up a notch, guys.
Okay, what are we going to do? Let's brainstorm.
How do we do an Amber alert? That's for child abductions.
I'm thinking outside the box.
Stepping back into the box for a moment, should we call her mother? I was hoping we'd find her before having to make that call.
But maybe the time has come? Hello? Yeah.
Uh-huh.
Okay.
Thank you for calling.
Bye.
Is she okay? - She's with dad.
- I stand by my question.
He said she's upset, embarrassed, and made him promise not to tell us where she is, but she's okay.
She's okay.
I'd love to talk to her myself to find out.
I mean, could you hear where he was? Were there any noises like trains or a foghorn or Emma's going to be fine until she wants to be found.
Oh, we we probably missed it.
Let's forget it.
We should be there.
You should be there.
Thank you very much.
Good news.
I won the case! Oh, Viviana, that's wonderful! Yes, congratulations.
So now you can stay in the Hamptons.
Well, I-I can stay in the U.
S.
Viviana's moving to Tulsa to pursue her degree in physical therapy.
Thanks again, Divya, for hiring me such a fantastic lawyer.
I wish you the best of luck with everything, Viviana, truly.
I should go check on Sashi.
You look happy.
After our last conversation, I'm I'm surprised to see you here.
It's not your fault I showed up at your bar.
It's not your fault I kept coming back, just to see you, and and fell for you.
That's so sweet.
Uh I want to thank you for everything, everything.
Can can we stay in touch? This doesn't have to be good-bye, right? Of course not.
Good-bye.
Okay, Sashi, sweetie Sweetie, mommy loves you.
Okay, bye.
Bye, bunny.
You okay? Oh, yes, I'm okay and ready to move on.
Well, I have a feeling that things will only get better from here.
Divya Katdare? Yes.
Thanks for making my job easy for a change.
They never come to me.
What is it? Rafa's filed a lawsuit.
He's no longer asking for joint custody.
Now he wants sole custody.
I hoped that your turning down a seat on my board of directors was just an impulsive reaction.
It was.
And that, perhaps, you've had a change of heart? I haven't.
Boris, we both know I'd end up as more than just a member of your board.
It's always a slippery slope with you.
I'm in a very good place right now, and I just I don't want to start slipping.
Two double espressos.
Oh, I'm fine, Udo.
They're both for me, Hank.
- Oh.
- Danke schoen, Udo.
Bitte schoen.
Marisa and Carlos got in late.
She was jet-lagged, and he was quite fussy.
Which means you were up all night.
Yeah.
Hank, I'm not buying the hospital only to advance my research.
I have decided to settle in the Hamptons for good.
Yeah, I'm done.
I'm finished chasing things.
I'm finished being away from my family.
I don't want to wait until I get sick to start moving on with the rest of my life.
And I wish you the best of luck with all of it, Boris.
I'll still be your doctor whenever you need me, but that's all I can offer.
Ah, I'm sorry, but I need to take this.
I imagine you would.
Yeah, this is Hank.
Hey, Paul, long time.
What's up? It's a pretty fancy treadmill, dude.
Hankmed didn't want to spring for the one with wi-fi, huh? Great to have you back in the Hamptons, Paul.
Well, I wish I was here on a social call, not to donate a kidney to my brother.
When was his renal failure diagnosed? Only a couple months ago.
I had all the preliminary tests done in Miami.
Pulmonary function, EKG, ultrasound, the whole nine.
Let's call it eight.
The whole nine would have included finishing the pre-donor work-up.
Well, my bro just bought a ridiculous mansion on the water, so I figured I'd rather finish it here.
I take it your brother didn't go into medicine.
He went into money, a lot of it.
His hedge fund has more assets under management than Nicaragua.
Wow, I hope he's your older brother.
Uh, my twin brother.
Oh, my God, you're telling me there's two of you? Don't worry.
We're fraternal.
Okay, good.
He's older by a whole three minutes and 12 seconds.
He's always worked hard, and he used to play even harder.
Like, Van Dyke-style partying? Oh, please, you think I'm socially aggressive? That guy used to make me look like well, like you.
Oh, thanks for that.
And now his kidney's paying for it.
Okay, Paul, you are done.
Not much time to work out in south beach, huh? All right, swab me, smartass.
Wait, didn't you already determine that you're a DNA match for him? Oh, there's nothing to match to.
He's refusing the test 'cause he won't admit he needs a transplant.
So you're gonna convince him? That guy doesn't listen to a word I say.
You're gonna convince him.
Mm.
Well, according to Hank, it's between him and Boris, and that's it, even though I'm his partner.
And his brother, I mean And even though this is a huge opportunity for me, being on the board of a major hospital, are you kidding me? Doesn't he realize the doors that would open? It's like resume gold.
I would finally have a track record outside of Hankmed.
You should explain that to Hank.
You should explain all of that to Hank and tell him how you feel.
I feel fine.
It's he's just not interested, you know? I'm at peace with it.
Seems like an angry peace.
Look, with everything that's going on, Hank, Emma, the board, if you want to keep talking to Bob What? No, I don't.
I don't, okay? I'm talking to you, my wife, and together, we can handle anything, right? That's exactly how I feel.
Okay, so we agree.
Today we officially, finally break up with Bob.
But gently.
We both know he's gotten attached to us.
It's even gotten a little weird recently.
Everybody decent this time? - Hi, Bob, come on in.
- Hey.
Fresh tangelo.
Paige, your muffins smell extra amazing this morning.
Aw, thanks.
Well, it's an extra special day.
We are always on the same page.
There's something I want to talk to you guys about.
- Us? - Oh, okay.
Cool.
Our sessions, here together in a domestic setting, have been so productive.
I feel it could be a new model for my practice.
Oh.
What do you think about me joining Hankmed? I think that's a very intriguing idea, Bob.
Very intriguing, but if you did become a colleague, we'd probably have to adjust our therapeutic relationship.
Good point.
Right, otherwise, it would be a conflict.
Right, Bob? If this comes to pass, I'm sure we could work out the details.
If there is one thing I hate, it is someone talking when I'm trying to interrupt them.
Now listen, I overpay you to give me results, not excuses.
Next time, before you knock up your wife, take a look at the calendar and keep earnings season in mind.
So you're the doctor my little brother used to work? And you're his twin brother.
Older by three minutes and 13 seconds.
Paul said three minutes, 12 seconds.
I'm sure he did.
Danny, nephropathy's a serious thing.
Your brother's a willing donor, and he's worried about you.
I'm touched.
Why are you resisting his help? Because it's a trap.
A trap? He only wants to give me his kidney because I fronted him the cash for med school.
He thinks this will settle him up.
You can't possibly believe that.
Well, it's what I would do.
V.
D.
's smart, but you know who's smarter? D.
V.
D.
Wow.
Aside from the fact that you both refer to yourselves by acronyms and in the third person, you two are pretty different.
Well, not that different.
In fact, you're a lot like your brother seemed before I got to know him.
Hmm.
A little douchey? - Yeah.
- I get that a lot.
I'm crying all the way to the bank I just bought 25% of.
Ah.
Look, don't let Paul worry you, okay? I have the most expensive nephrologist in New York, so Yeah, but according to your chart you haven't seen him since January.
Well, I'm a busy guy.
Agh! A busy guy with back pain.
How bad is it? It's not enough to slow me down.
Between that and your swollen ankles it looks like the nephropathy is progressing.
Danny, I want to do a full exam, including a donor compatibility check to see if you and your brother are a match.
I don't have time for that.
Do you have time for dialysis three days a week? 'Cause that's where you're headed.
And I'm guessing that would especially suck during earnings season.
Yeah, dad, we left a bunch of messages.
Please call us back.
We just want to talk to Emma.
Thank you.
He's not going to tell us where she is, is he? Well, look, Emma's safe, you know? We can't force him to tell us any more than that.
Speaking of prying information out of people, why don't you want to join Boris's board of directors? Ev, I really don't feel like Please, I just want to understand.
No, you just want to talk me into it.
No, I-I Okay, try me.
I mean it.
Okay, okay.
With Boris, nothing's ever as simple as it seems.
I mean, everything is just a rabbit hole.
And the last thing I want right now is to get sucked back into a hospital bureaucracy.
But that would never happen.
I-I promise And now you're talking me into it.
- Henry - Evan! You don't understand my relationship with Boris.
This is stuff between me and him, so please, just Just stay out of it.
Wow, okay, consider me out of it, but Hank, this is something I need to do, with or without you.
I'm building a life with Paige now.
I can't pass up golden opportunities like this.
Well, I never asked you to pass it up, - and I never would ask.
- I know that.
I'm not I'm just afraid that what you don't want, and what I really want is about to lead us in two completely different directions, and that would be a real shame, right? Especially if there was a way to avoid it or a way to at least, like, work through it together.
Yeah.
Unfortunately, there's not.
Okay.
All right.
We should probably be more focused on Emma - right now anyway.
- Yeah, yeah.
Do you want to go to Arizona next week? What? Why? That's where dad's book tour resumes.
I figure we just go out there and casually bump into Emma.
Uh, I don't know about that.
We just can't let too much time pass before we see her.
That's how family disagreements turn into family rifts.
Okay, we could do that.
It's just Dad told me yesterday his next book signing was today.
He doesn't have one today, unless he added some dates.
I mean He's at the corner bookstore this afternoon.
What? He's he's in Manhattan.
So we know where he's staying.
Which means we know where Emma is.
- There it is, good old 2031.
- Yup.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
We should have a plan B.
You bring that up after we drive to the city - and I knock on the door? - Okay, we still have time.
- We don't have time.
- Just Hi.
Eddie told you where I am? No, no.
Emma, he didn't betray you.
He doesn't even know we're here.
Then how did you find me? Look, we'll explain everything.
Can we just can we come in? Please? We used to stay here with dad when we were kids, even though he was spending money he didn't have.
We always stayed in this suite, and the burger was always the highlight.
I'm not hungry.
I know how you feel.
I know why you ran away.
Nothing feels worse than disappointing family.
Trust me, I know.
I've been disappointing Hank for years.
My mom never really expected much of me, so I never let her down, and you guys should be disappointed.
I broke your trust, again.
I just I can't believe all of the stupid stuff I did this summer.
I was just so desperate to fit in.
Wow.
Well, no one gets that last part better than I do, but, Emma, you've made us proud way more than you let us down.
Proud of how smart and determined and independent you are.
Proud that you went out and got a job, like, the moment you got here, an unglamorous one.
Proud of how you jumped in during medical emergencies.
And proud that, even though you came to New York this summer to tell Eddie you didn't need him He's the one you turn to now.
'Cause that's what family is, people you depend on when you run out of better options.
Wow, when you guys gang up, there is really no stopping you.
Oh.
Hey, Jeremiah.
So you're eating that all by yourself? I don't intend to finish it.
Though if I do, my picture goes up on the wall inside.
Oh, hey, have you set up an interview with Bob yet? That won't be necessary.
You're hiring him without an interview? We're not hiring him at all.
I just found out he's not licensed or credentialed.
- What? - I left Evan a voice-mail.
Hi, can I get you a Carol's super gigantic fun day sundae too? I'm good, thanks.
Hold on.
So we've been baring our soul to just some guy? How did you find Bob? Well, Evan found him online.
Did he ever say he was a doctor? No.
Ohh.
In fact, he insisted we call him Bob, but I just figured he was trying to make us comfortable.
If it makes you feel any better, he does have an undergraduate degree from Concordia University.
Yeah? A degree in what? - Theater.
- Mm.
I'm sorry if you feel deceived.
You know what? I don't.
Evan and I never cared about Bob's credentials.
We just cared about getting help, and he definitely gave us that, big time.
He changed our lives.
We'd go to him all over again.
Well, that's a medically inadvisable portion of ice cream.
Mmm.
I'll get your picture up on that wall.
- Oh, my gosh.
- Whoa.
Did you know dad was this popular? No, but knowing dad he could've paid all these people to be here.
Oh, you were you were serious.
- A little bit.
- Kind of.
So, Emma, after this, we'll head back to the Hamptons? Oh, actually, I had another idea.
Oh, really, and what was that? Well, I was thinking maybe I could go with Eddie.
On the last leg of his book tour? Yeah, yeah.
I mean, I've really enjoyed getting to know him, and I want to know him better.
I mean, as well as I know you guys now.
And I don't know, I was thinking maybe it would help me get to know myself better.
- I think it's a great idea.
- Really? Do you think he'll like it? He would love it! There you guys go, ganging up again.
Hey, what are you guys waiting in line for? Isn't your father signing books inside? Huh? - He's supposed to be.
- Mwah.
- Hi, dad.
- Hi, sweetie.
Hi.
Well, it looks like you three sorted out whatever was happening.
We did.
And Emma sorted out what she'd like to have happen next.
All right, sweetie, I'm all ears.
Well, I was thinking Mister Lawson, your fans are extremely ready for you inside.
Could you just ask them to wait one more second? I'm talking to my three kids.
- Okay.
- Thanks, Sarah.
Yes, yes, yes.
So what did your lawyer say? She's working on a visitation plan for Rafa, visitation on U.
S.
soil only.
We're going over the details tomorrow.
- Great.
- You ready? Ready? We're out.
We're going.
We're going.
Paul.
Oh, my gosh, it's so good to see you.
I heard you were back in town.
I am indeed.
Hi.
Hello.
Mwah.
Where did the baby come from? I'm sure if you talk to your doctor over there, he'll explain that to you.
Got to go.
Always great catching up, Katdare.
Mm-hmm.
- Hey.
- Hey.
I knew you'd convince him to get the transplant.
Oh, he hasn't agreed to it yet.
Yeah, but he's already listening to you.
He needs to hear it from an authority figure, not just his bumbling little bro.
Ah! Your back hurts too? Ah, not enough to slow me down.
I assume you got that expression from Danny.
We both got it from our dad.
He used to say it during his dizzy spells.
He passed away when we were in high school.
Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.
Any idea what was causing his dizzy spells? - Hypertension.
- Hmm.
Paul, did your dad have any kidney problems? I mean, he got up four times a night to pee, but Wait, you think that my back pain is kidney related, and that my dad had nephropathy, just like my brother? Well, I'm just I never even thought about it before, but nephropathy can manifest in very subtle ways, and it can have a genetic component.
I mean, obviously, we won't know for sure until we get a kidney biopsy, but So if I'm sick too, where will Danny get a kidney? Let's wait for all the results to come back before we even go there.
Okay? Right.
I got to give credit where it's due, you really knew what to say, what Emma needed to hear.
What can I tell you? I am really in touch with my inner teenage girl.
- Weird, babe.
- Hmm? But I'm so glad to hear that she's okay, and that everything's okay between the three of you.
Wait.
What, you sense a disturbance in the force? Better.
- I hear a Kardashian.
- What? I would know that laugh anywhere, and that laugh belongs to Khloe.
Okay.
Oh, my God.
She's right there, with Scott.
I thought Scott was Kourtney's Th-they're just having lunch.
See, Paige, this is why they're so misunderstood, because people keep jumping to scandalous conclusions.
Right.
Would you like to meet them? - Oh, my God, are you serious? - I have to follow-up with them about a retainer they requested anyways.
Yes, let's go.
Come on.
I'll take that as a yes.
Say hi for us.
So why do you think Evan's hounding you so much about this whole board of directors thing? Oh, I think Evan's really good at talking people into things.
He knows it, and he's - Ah, Paige? - Hmm? Why do you think he's been hounding me so much? - I'm so glad you asked.
- I'm sure you are.
I think Evan feels dismissed and excluded, especially when it comes to you and Boris.
What do you mean? Well, there's a pretty big part of your life that Evan's always been shut out of, and I think the only thing he's trying to talk you into is letting him in.
Huh, I never I never looked at it that way.
I'm so glad he was such an asset with Emma, and I just know he'd be an asset with Boris.
So let him help you.
Evan, I'm so sorry.
I have no idea what Kourtney did with that retainer.
Welcome to my life.
That's fine, it's fine.
I'll just send you a new one.
So, guys, this is Charlotte.
- Hi.
- Hi.
She this is crazy used to be blind.
You're really not that good at that.
What he meant to say was I am a huge fan.
- Oh, thank you.
- Well, Charlotte, that's actually not really what you say.
Actually, that's exactly what you say.
Yeah, it works every time, I promise.
Do you want to sit with us, Charlotte? - Yes.
- Wow.
- Sit down.
- Oh! I have so many questions - for you guys.
- Should I sit, or- - oh.
- I have been listening to your show for years.
It, does a camera crew, like, - honestly follow you around? - I'll just stand.
Hi.
What would you like? I'd like whatever you like.
Everything here's great.
It's not the same.
It's been the same since I started working here, four years ago.
No, I've never been here.
So what's not the same? It's It's me.
I've changed.
Maybe I need to.
Sorry.
Sorry, Dr.
Van Dyke.
He's napping poolside.
My brother doesn't nap.
He has a headache and said he wants peace and quiet.
How bad did his headache seem? He said it was like a horse kicking him in the head.
- Let's go.
- Out of the way, Keith.
This is Dr.
Van Dyke.
My brother needs an ambulance now.
Danny! Danny, are you all right? There's something wrong with my eye.
Okay, okay.
Tell me what you see.
It's so blurry.
I barely can see.
Can I take a look? Yup, you have a subhyaloid hemorrhage.
Oh.
B.
P.
's 190 over 125.
Paul, what's happening? You're gonna be fine, Danny.
And your brother's right here to make sure.
Right, Paul? Yeah.
Danny, listen, you're bleeding into the subarachnoid space around your brain.
We're gonna get you to the hospital.
You're gonna be fine.
I promise.
It's depressing his respiratory drive.
- Yeah, we may need to intubate.
- Uh-huh.
Okay, Danny, don't worry.
We're all over this.
Danny? - Hank, he stopped breathing.
- Okay.
Okay, bag him.
Okay, clear.
Okay.
Yep, visualizing the vocal cord.
Tube.
Okay.
And I'm in.
Okay.
Go for it.
Yeah, you got it.
Good, good.
Nice work.
You too.
So your high blood pressure caused your nephropathy.
It also caused the hemorrhage, and your brother saved your life.
Yeah, your brother's clutch like that.
Danny, you are gonna need a new kidney.
The good news is we got the results back, and your brother's a perfect match.
We just got to make sure my kidney's gonna do you more good than harm.
What you mean? I mean we may have both inherited this thing from dad.
That's ridiculous.
We both know I got this from all my years of chasing eight balls with more eight balls.
No, your biopsy showed no evidence that the damage is from drug use, but I'm guessing the real reason you didn't want a transplant was because you thought you brought it on yourself, and you wouldn't take your brother's kidney because you didn't think you deserved it.
Wow.
Danny, you're a human being? That didn't show up on the labs either.
I knew you secretly gave a damn about me.
Well, I still don't want your kidney.
You look like hell.
And I thought we were having a moment just then.
He's right, Paul.
You're flushed.
Can I take a look? What does that mean? It means your brother needs to be admitted too.
I discovered late in life that I had a gift for reaching people.
I read all the right books about it, but technically, I never got the formal qualifications.
I was focused on patients, not paperwork.
And we totally get that, Bob.
But Hankmed's patients might not be as understanding.
Well, at least we still have each other.
Uh Bob, we adore you, and we're so grateful for everything you've helped us achieve, but But it's time to part ways.
This has nothing to do with you being unlicensed.
We're just done with therapy.
Yeah.
Bravo.
I was beginning to wonder when you two would get here.
- Huh? - Get where? It's crucial for patients to reach this conclusion on their own.
I am so proud of you two.
To be honest, I was worried that you guys were getting a little attached to me.
What? But yes.
Now, my work here Our work here is done.
Wait a second.
One last group hug? Mmm.
So it turns out your brother had a simple case of prostatitis, maybe caused by a catheter during his bladder testing in Miami.
But as soon as the infection clears You'll be able to donate away.
If I can't find a better donor.
V.
D.
Evan.
How you doing, man? I heard you were in town.
What are you, too cheap to get a hotel? What are you, too cheap to buy me an Edible Arrangement? - Oof.
- I totally would've done that, but I'm actually not here for a visit.
I was just filing some forms for my new role as, wait for it, vice chairman of the hospital's new board of directors.
Oh, yes, vice chairman.
Wow.
I am vice impressed.
Got enough pull to get me my own room? I'll throw you 100 shares of Netflix.
Ev, this is Paul's brother, Danny.
Oh, my God, nice to meet you, Danny Van Dyke.
That makes you D.
V.
D.
My God, that's awesome.
It's a lot better than V.
D.
, I'll tell you that much.
Anyway, I got to go.
I hope the whole family gets well soon, all right? I'll see you later.
You think you've got it rough? That was Hank's little brother.
Tell him how you suffer, Hank.
He has his quirks, but actually, I rely on him a lot.
Little brothers can really surprise you sometimes.
If you guys will excuse me, I need to go talk to him about something.
So I had a thought.
Yeah? Me too.
You go first.
I think we should buy a house.
Oh, my God, I love that idea.
- Really? - Yes.
That's awesome, that's awesome.
Okay, now you go.
Okay, I think we should get married again, and then take a ridiculous honeymoon.
You don't like that idea? No, I love it.
I just I hate that it was so much better than mine.
But don't count me out just yet.
I have one more up my sleeve.
Yeah? Bring it.
I'll just have to show it to you.
Oh, it's my favorite idea so far.
You're damn right it is.
- Hello.
- Are you Robert Rappaport? Please, it's Bob.
Oh, okay, Bob.
I'm Jeremiah.
Jeremiah, how can I help you? You come highly recommended by Evan and Paige Lawson.
Are you taking on new clients? Come on in.
Divya.
Raj? Oh, my gosh.
Ah.
Oh.
It's been a while! Well, judging by this beautiful young lady, I'd say it's been at least 16 months? You were always quick with numbers.
This is Sashi.
You are adorable.
Thank you.
I am so happy for you, Divya.
Is everything okay? Well, since you asked, I'm just leaving my lawyer's office.
I'm dealing with a custody battle, and it seems things are going to get more difficult before they get easier.
Well, since you mentioned it, I've got a brilliant divorce attorney, - if you need a second opinion.
- Oh, my gosh.
Raj, I am so sorry it didn't work out.
Don't be.
She wasn't.
Maybe this is why our parents plotted every moment of our futures for us, because they knew, if left to our own devices, we'd both make a total mess of it.
- Hmm.
- Come on.
You, tell me all about your kids.
Oh, gosh, we've got a lot of catching up to do.
We do.
Hello, Hank.
Hey, bro.
I've decided to join the board.
If I'm still welcome, that is.
What has made you change your mind? Actually, Boris, that's between me and my brother.
You mind if I borrow your vice chairman for a few minutes? Ev? Well, if you'll excuse me.
- So - So Why did you change your mind? I just realized, it shouldn't be about me and Boris.
It should be about me and you.
And with you at my side, I'm not worried about Boris or hospital politics or anything else.
'Cause when you and I gang up, there's no stopping us.
I'm really flattered by everything you just said, Henry, I really am, but here's the thing I'm with Boris now, and we are really happy together.
- Okay.
- It happened really fast, - but it just feels right, okay? - Mmhmm, yeah, no, I mean, you guys are perfect together.
That's what I think.
Seriously though, I just walked out on Boris.
You think he's pissed? What are we gonna do if he's pissed? I'm sure we'll figure something out.
We always do, right?
