All language subtitles for The Republic of Sarah 1x13 - The Last Rabbit (English)

Um,

Sarah, are you okay?

Y-You-you were supposed
to do a press conference

a-about the presentation.

B-But it... It's okay.

Uh, I can tell them
we'll do it another day.

- Synced & corrected by MementMori -
-- www.addic7ed.com --

Corinne!

- Danny, no, I can't.
- Corinne, wait!

I really... I can't. I can't
right now. Please. I can't.

- I can't.
- Sarah's Mic was on in there.

The whole crowd just
heard you guys talking.

Oh. Great.

- That's great.
- Is it true?

What Sarah said, is it
true? Is Josh my... ?

And you... you... you knew.

This whole time, you knew?

I just found out, Danny.

I just found out just
now, just like you.

Just like the whole town, apparently.

No, I mean, you knew there was
a chance that Josh was my son.

Why else would you
take a paternity test?

Josh is not your son!

You were not there for the labor pains.

You weren't there for
the late-night feedings.

You weren't there for his
fevers or his broken wrist.

It was just me and Adam.

Adam, who can't even look
me in the eye anymore.

You could've told me you had doubts
about who Josh's father was.

How?! You left!

You left before the morning
sickness kicked in,

and I had no way of contacting you!

Maybe six years ago, sure.

But I've been back in
Greylock for eight months!

Eight months, Corinne!

I just wish you would've said something.

Anything.

Wow. You know, it's funny.

When you left town when we were kids,

I used to wish the exact same thing.

That you would say something to me.

Anything.

Hi. Um...

Yeah, hi. I-I know that you were
all hoping to speak to Sarah today,

but she can't make it.

- She's really sorry.
- I would be, too,

if the whole world found
out I fudged the results

of a paternity test. Especially
after that absurd presentation.

Sarah's plan gives Greylock
short-term stability

while setting us up
for long-term growth.

The ink is barely dry
on your constitution,

and she's already headed off

on some useless quest to
woo the United States?

Come on.

Official recognition would
stabilize our economy,

secure our sovereignty

and get us access to foreign
aid and disaster relief.

That doesn't sound useless to me.

Hey.

Have you heard from Corinne?

I-I've called her, like, a million
times. She won't pick up.

Probably 'cause she doesn't
want to talk to you.

An impulse she and I share, actually.

I made a terrible mistake, AJ, I know.

But I had my reasons.

For telling the truth or for
lying in the first place?

For both. When Corinne
took that paternity test,

she wanted it to be Adam.

She stood in this room,
and she cried in my arms,

and she-she begged the
universe to make it Adam.

So you made it Adam.

When the email came and
it was Danny's name,

it's like I could...
I could see the future.

Corinne's life falling
apart all over again

because of my dickhead brother.

And then I thought of Josh.

Adam is an amazing dad. To replace that?

I know what it's like,
growing up with a father

who runs at the first sign of trouble.

Josh doesn't deserve that. Nobody does.

Danny being Josh's biological father

gives him rights in a custody hearing.

I had to tell Corinne
the truth to save Josh.

He's not yours to save, Sarah.

My God, at some point,
you're gonna have to realize

you don't know what's best
for everybody on the planet.

- I never said I knew.
- You don't have to.

It's clear you think you do.

Oh, my God.

I've been a fixer for my whole life.

It's who I am.

I do not know how to turn it off.

Sarah, Sarah, you lied to the people
that you care the most about.

Glass houses, Mom.

Before I got sober,

I thought the thing that was
going to save me was a hug...

... when what I really needed
was a kick in the ass.

Someone to look me in the eye
and tell me the cold, hard truth.

You want a hug, Sarah?
I'm not going to give you one.

It's gonna make things worse.

I don't... I don't need a hug.

I need to say I'm sorry.

I found out that you have a grandson,

and I didn't tell you,

and I am sorry.

I am sorry.

I thought you didn't want to talk to me.

Was Sarah right?

Does you being Josh's biological father

change the math on this custody thing?

- Yeah.
- Okay. How?

I would probably be
granted partial custody

if I petitioned the court.

If that happened, a judge
would keep Josh in Greylock.

Two parents here versus
one somewhere else.

Okay, I need you to petition the court.

- Corinne.
- No.

I need Josh in Greylock.

I-I want to help, but...

Most times, I feel like I'm...

I'm barely keeping my
own head above water.

To suddenly be... someone's dad...

I'm not sure I'm ready for that.

I'm not asking you to
take him for pancakes

or take him camping.

I'm asking for your signature,
not your time.

When I was 17 and alone,

I needed you, and you weren't there.

When I found out that I was pregnant,

I was terrified.

I needed you, and you weren't there.

When I was about to get married,

all I wanted was for you
to come back to Greylock

and take me away from
all of this. I needed you.

I needed you, and you weren't there.

So, Danny, please,

for once in your life, be there.

Hey.

Corinne?

Corinne, you have to let me explain.

- Okay?
- No, I know what happened. You lied.

You have to understand that
I was trying to help you.

- I was trying...
- No, you were trying to be in control

like you always are.

Do you know that when, um, you
told me the results of the DNA test,

it never even occurred to me
to look at the email myself

because I knew that you
would never lie to me

about something like that.

I thought I knew.

I really didn't want my
brother to ruin your life.

That's right, my life!
My life, Sarah! Mine!

Not yours.

Deciding what to do with
the results of the DNA test,

it should've been my
choice. It should...

And you took it from me.

Here is one choice you
don't get to steal.

I'm never speaking to you again.

No, Corinne. Corinne?

Hey. Hey.

It's me, Bear.

I found your Super 8 camera.

Uh,

Tyler used your footage to make this...

amazing film about us.

And after watching it,

it helped me replace some
of those bad memories

with some good ones.

And between that and therapy,

I think I'm gonna be okay.

I have a long way to go,

and I miss you like crazy,

but I think I'm gonna be okay.

Wherever you are, I hope...

You don't have to worry
about me anymore.

You can rest now.

Just rest.

There you are.

Thought I might find you up here.

Nowhere else to hide.

I'm fine, Paul. I'm fine.

You know, on a really clear day,

you can see all the way to
Hazzard Notch from here.

Little village with the
apple cider doughnuts.

Those were your favorites
when you were a little kid.

I remember.

Look, I know you're upset

about this thing with,
uh, Danny and Corinne.

Your friends all being mad at you.

If you're determined to
beat yourself up about it,

I-I get it. I understand that.

Just know that someday soon,

you will have a chance
to redeem yourself.

So be ready.

That's not a chance you want to miss.

Take it from somebody
who's missed plenty.

You're telling me there's
not a single room available

in your whole building?

Okay. Thank you.

? What's the crimson light... ?

Everything all right?

No, not really.

? Sudden change of heart... ?

Is this about your dad?

How do you know about my dad?

Well, my sister picked up
a few shifts at his place,

and I brought some doughnuts over there

and saw your photo in his room.

Have you told anyone?

Not my story to tell.

He really seemed happy in that place.

Yeah. A giant medical
company is buying it,

so I got to find somewhere
else for him to live.

Sorry to hear that.
Good luck with the search.

Thanks, Tyler.

State Department?

Is it that obvious?

I've never seen you in Greylock before.

I'm guessing that that bulge
on your hip is a gun.

Given that my father's presence here

just became headline news...

Gina Saunders.

Diplomatic Security.

- Special agent.
- You're wasting your time here.

Greylock is a nonextradition country.

The American government has no
authority to arrest our residents.

I know.

Why are you here?

To offer you official recognition
from the United States.

A pat on the head from
the Stars and Stripes

makes this little poli-sci
experiment of yours legit.

If you, as Greylock's leader,

allow us to arrest Paul Cooper,

the State Department is prepared
to fast-track that recognition.

Three months,

and Greylock can finally
leave the kids' table

and come and sit with the adults.

Let me know.

Yeah, I'm not surprised the
State Department reached out.

I am surprised that
you told me about it.

After the Corinne thing,
if I'm gonna make a decision

about someone's life, they're
gonna help me make it.

Um, so, what would...
what would happen to you

- if I... ?
- Well,

first, they would spend
a few days making sure

that I'm not sitting on any
more stolen documents.

- Are you?
- Chief of staff's March Madness bracket.

POTUS's email asking if he gets
to see the new Star Wars early

because he's POTUS.

I'm a walking WikiLeaks.

Now, after they discover
that I have dumped

all the information that I had,

there will be a trial, at which
point I will be found guilty.

But if you had a really
good lawyer and...

The whole point of this crime
is to leave a paper trail.

You could replace my
prosecutor with a horse,

- and I'd still be convicted.
- You did the right thing.

You should be in a parade, not a prison.

Yeah. Recognition for
Greylock would be huge.

I know.

This process can take
years if it happens at all.

And God forbid you wind up like Abkhazia

- or South Ossetia.
- No, I know.

Endlessly floundering in the
waters of partial recognition.

No stability.

- No security.
- No future.

Recognition for Greylock

would be the final step in
becoming a real country.

- All it costs is one absent father.
- Mm.

Formerly absent.

You do realize I, I could still run.

Drop off the map again.
Everything falls apart.

I know.

But you told me anyway.

You didn't hide it.

Maybe that was foolish.

But at least it was honest.

Hey, Dad. You got a sec?

Sure, sweetie. What's up?

So, you know how I've
been working with Sarah

- for my sophomore study project.
- Mm-hmm.

Well, helping her,
helping to build Greylock,

I feel more like me.

But the thing is I have to go back

to regular classes in three weeks,

and I won't be able to help
Sarah full-time anymore.

Mm-hmm.

So, I was thinking maybe I
could skip the spring semester.

- What? Bella...
- Come on, Dad,

I can go back to school in the fall.

But if I help Sarah now,

I can work with her full-time
throughout the summer.

Absolutely not.

Come on, Dad. Plenty of kids
take time off from high school.

Yeah. They're called juvenile offenders.

I'm gonna learn way more from Sarah

than I ever would reciting sonnets

- or doing long division.
- Okay.

Bella, I love that you're so inspired,

and you should keep helping Sarah...

during your free time.

But I'm not going to let you
drop out of high school.

You know, they have books on tape now.

Easier for older eyes.

- I'm looking for a job.
- What?

JD from Penn, a lauded political career,

author of many successful books?

Think a job would be looking for you.

Until they Web-search my name,

and then they see four million versions

of my TV confession.

Apparently, I'm a meme.

Whatever that is.

Yeah, well, what do you
want a job for, anyway?

Because I'm gonna lose my marbles

if I just sit around my house,

spinning my wheels, thinking
about a grandchild that I have

that I'll probably never
be allowed to see.

Ah.

You seem very nonchalant about
this grandchild revelation.

Are you not angry at Sarah?

I-I've been around enough to know
the world's a pretty broken place.

Darkness everywhere you look.

That doesn't mean you
shouldn't try and find a light.

Our little girl, who's...
not so little anymore,

lives in the trying.

As long as that's true,

how could I be mad at her? I mean...

After everything you've put me through,

do you really have to parade
him around in front of me?

Do you think some dumb DNA test

is gonna stop me from loving my son?

No, and I don't want it to.

But... what that dumb DNA test does do

is it allows Danny to petition
for partial custody of Josh.

And that's exactly what he will do

unless you agree to an arrangement
that keeps Josh in Greylock.

I've already talked to my lawyer,

and Danny's involvement will swing
this whole thing in my favor.

Adam, you're an amazing dad.

Josh loves you, and he
needs you in his life.

But I love him, too, and I'm not gonna
let you take him away from me.

So, if you want a war,

I will give you the nuclear version.

Or you and I can come
to a peaceful solution

that allows our son to grow
up with happy memories

instead of sad ones.

Hi, Doris.

Spring's around the corner.
Are you pumped for tulip season?

My grandson's been helping
me expand my garden.

When it's done,

"tulips" won't even do it justice.

You're gonna have to
call them "three-lips."

Ah.

Oh!

Doris, you okay?

- Are you okay?
- Oh.

- Grover, help!
- What happened?

Hey, hey. Hey, Doris, hey.

Talk to me. Where's the pain?

My chest.

- The clinic is just...
- No, no, we don't have a clinic.

It was wiped out by the flood.

I think we have to
take her to a hospital.

- Is your car out back?
- No, I-I walked here.

Me, too.

Doris's car. We'll take her to
the ER in Dixville. Come on.

How's she doing?

She keeps fading in and out. Doris.

Doris, stay with me, okay?

Breathe. Breathe in.

No, no, no, no, no, no. Come on,

come on, come on.

I'm sorry.

Grover, she's not breathing,
and I can't feel a pulse.

Come on, Doris! Stay with me.

- What are you doing? Keep going.
- There's a truck!

Move, move. Move, move, move, move!

Hurry, Grover. She still
doesn't have a pulse,

- and she's not breathing.
- Oh, truck's moving. Truck's moving.

- Go! Go! Go!
- Hold on!

Six. Six minutes?

The clinic is six minutes
away from Sweetie Pie.

Except we don't have a clinic.

Instead, we have a really damp building

and a bunch of soggy medical equipment.

Sarah.

Doris was alive in the car.

She was alive in the car for 14 minutes.

Fourteen.

This never would've happened

if Greylock were a recognized country.

What are you talking about?

Official recognition means we're
better prepared for the flood.

We're better prepared for the
flood, we don't lose the clinic.

We don't lose the clinic,
Doris is still alive.

Maybe it was just her time.

And maybe...

she's dead because I
didn't get this country

what it needs fast enough.

Lately, I don't get anyone
what they need.

What happened to Doris
is not your fault.

Yeah. If you say so.

You kidding me, Sarah?

I just talked to Dad.

Yeah, I tried to talk to you myself.

Danny, I called you, like, a
dozen times in the past day.

You found out Josh is my
son and didn't tell me.

I'm sorry if I went a little hard

on the "decline" button for your taste.

Tell me you're not actually
considering giving Dad

to the State Department.

I don't want to, Danny, but recognition

would guarantee this country's future.

I have to think about
what Greylock needs.

What Greylock needs is a leader

who won't trade people for stuff!

Never mind the fact

that the person you're thinking
about trading is our father!

What is this, some kind of revenge?

You getting back at him for
all the time he was away?

We were just starting to feel like
a real family for the first time,

and you want to throw that away.

Just tell me you're not
gonna give him up.

Sarah, tell me you're
not gonna give him up.

You got to get out of here now.

Whoa, slow down.

What's going on, cowboy?

This thing with the State Department.

Sarah's gonna turn you in.

You're supposed to have dinner
with her tonight, right?

- Yeah.
- It's a trap, Dad. You can't go.

Look, Sarah's been cards up about
the state's offer from the start.

Why-why would she want to conspire now?

All Sarah does is conspire.

The whole town got a taste
of it a couple of days ago

with this delightful little DNA
public service announcement.

I trust Sarah.

Trust me, Dad.

She's already made up her mind.

You got to go back into hiding.

You've done it before,
you can do it again.

But you got to leave now
if you want a head start.

- Dad!
- Yeah. No, you're right.

I j-just... I got to go.

I'm sorry.

I'm the sorry one.

I never should've put you
two in this situation.

- It was selfish.
- Nah, don't say that. I'm just...

I'm just glad I got a chance
to get to know you again.

Because you may not see me for a while,

I'd like to leave you with a
little bit of paternal advice.

This thing with Corinne

and you being that little boy's father.

Look at me.

You were made for this, Dan.

No matter what anyone else says.

I love you.

I love you, too, Dad.

Hi, Paul.

It's me again. I'm just wondering
if you're still coming.

Um, I was really hoping we could talk

about this State Department
stuff some more.

Between that and, um, the mess I made

with Corinne's paternity
test, there's just...

there's a lot of noise
in my head right now.

But talking to you the last
few days, having you around,

you've-you've been shelter
from the storm, you have.

I'm really glad you're in Greylock,

- so, anyway...
- _

Okay. I'll be here.

Sorry I'm late.

Stopped by Hazzard Notch to pick
up the apple cider doughnuts

- that you love.
- Aw.

Thank you. Oh, they smell good.

We can have them after dinner.

Actually, I can't stay for dinner.

Federal agents outside.
Don't want to keep them waiting.

What are you talking about?
I'm not taking the deal.

Official recognition is important,

but it is not worth
trading a person for.

You or anyone else.

The surest way to get recognized

is to take the State Department's offer.

I told you. I'm not taking the deal.

Well, I am.

I'm-I'm turning myself in.

They're, they're here.

No. No. No. No, no.

- Paul, this is not what I want.
- It's what I want.

I want it. I've watched you
for the past few months,

and-and you fight tooth and nail
for the things you care about.

You're brave, you're loyal,

and you're selfless.

All the things I want
to be when I grow up.

What can I say, kid?
You set a good example.

No, no, no. No, no, no. Stop. I don't...

Please. I don't want this.

Thank you for letting
me get to know you.

You're an incredible person,

and I'm very proud to be your father.

It's okay.

It's all right.

It's okay.

Taken so much from you.

About time I give something back.

Love you, princess.

I love you, too, Dad.

_

_

I talked to the State
Department this morning,

gave them my official okay
to arrest Dad in Greylock.

So it's... it's all legal now.

Between that and lying about Josh,

you must really hate me.

Well, I'm trying to.

I'm not having much luck.

Why not?

Because you're my sister.

Dad had a chance to run.

He chose not to. That was his decision.

With Corinne...

I don't like what you did.

But I get why you did it.

I wouldn't want me near her, either.

Especially after everything
I put her through.

I'm leaving town in two days.

My transfer finally came through.

I thought you were gonna petition
for partial custody of Josh.

No, that was just a threat
to get Adam to knock it off

with the supervillain routine.

Once he realized Corinne
had him beat, he-he caved.

So that's it? You're just gonna
walk away from your son?

Josh already has two parents.

Three's a crowd.

You in Greylock would
improve his life, Danny.

You know how I know? Because
you in Greylock improved my life.

It improved your life.

You've been the best version of
yourself since you came here.

You're a part of this community
now. We need you.

- No, you don't.
- Yeah, we do.

The Coopers are a mess.

The list of problems that
our family has caused

is longer than my arm, but...

but look at our parents.

Mom's working so hard at her sobriety.

Dad has turned himself in
to answer for his crimes.

"Dad," huh?

If those two can muster the courage

to face their mistakes, then...

... so can we.

Come on, Danny.

It's time to stop running.

- Sarah.
- Oh.

Oh, not today, William. Can
you please maybe yell at me

about corrupting your daughter tomorrow

or some... any...
literally any other day?

I-I'm not gonna yell at you, Sarah.

I'm gonna apologize.

For what?

For the way I acted since
you became our leader.

Look, I was just... jealous.

You know, you took my
job as head of Greylock,

and within 24 hours you were
doing it better than I ever did.

Thank you, William.

Why the change of heart?

Bella.

You helped her find her calling.

You helped her find her voice.
Since you came into her world,

Bella has grown into a confident,
brave, driven version of herself,

and I'd be crazy to take
that away from her.

My dad's decided to register
me as a homeschool student

for the next semester, and
I'm gonna do all my classes

on nights and weekends

so I can be your intern
full-time throughout the week.

- Are you sure about this, William?
- I'm sure.

I get to spend more
time with Bella, anyway.

And in the meantime,

there's no better person to
look out for my daughter.

Hey.

Sarah.

- Yeah.
- I found this on my bed. What is it?

- A treaty, potentially.
- A treaty between who?

Between Greylock

and the state of New
Hampshire. Potentially.

Why is my name on it?

Because it's your treaty. Poten...

Potentially. I got that part.

Um, I-I looked into the company

that's buying your dad's place. MediCo.

There's a lot of data that says
that conglomerates like them

jacking up the price of local facilities

has a seriously negative
effect on public health.

That treaty forms an alliance

with New Hampshire against
predatory medical companies.

Long story short, it would stop MediCo

from buying your father's facility.

Governor Taggert will go for this?

I told her it was important
to my citizens.

So you put yourself in
her pocket to help me.

I would put myself in her guillotine

if it meant helping you.

But this isn't about you and me.
This is about public policy.

You were right, AJ.

I don't know what's best
for everyone on the planet.

I put your name on that treaty.

It's your treaty now.
You will oversee the creation

and the approval of it as a, an elected
member of Greylock's council.

You know what your father needs.

You know what people like him
need way more than I do,

so you should be the one
who makes sure they get it.

Thanks, Sarah.

Mm.

This week hasn't been easy.

I tried to get a job,
something to keep me busy,

and no one's hiring.

Seems like the shadows of my
past are longer than I realized.

And then to make things worse,

my daughter admitted that she lied

about the results of a paternity test.

A test that...

... revealed that I'm a grandmother.

Um, in the past all of
that would've sent me

right to the bottom of a bottle,

but today it's brought me here.

So much of modern life is binary.

It's on, off. Hot, cold.

Good or bad.

And the truth is we all live
somewhere in between.

All we can do is try our best to be
the person that we want to be

and just to keep on
trying whenever we fail.

So, from now on,
that's what I'm gonna do.

_

To live in the trying.

The trying is all.

Sarah?

What the hell happened to you?

Oh, I caught an elbow to
the face during the opener.

You okay?

Yeah. If you're still bleeding,
you're still breathing, right?

I had no idea you were coming tonight.

What the hell are you doing here?

When you need to repent,
you go to church.

Contrition by mosh pit.

Yeah, something like that.

You know you don't got to
be so hard on yourself?

Oh, you're kidding me.

- You were just trying to help.
- "I was just trying to help."

Like Brutus.

You know what your problem is?

- I'm a liar.
- Mm-hmm.

I'm a lying liar who lies.

Yeah, you don't know how to forgive.

I know how to forgive.

I'm not talking about
other people, Sarah.

I'm talking about you
forgiving yourself.

Grover, I hurt the people in the world

that I'm supposed to
care the most about.

What do you want me to do?

I want you to remember
that you are human.

I want you to remember

that you've spent your whole life

worrying about everyone
in this town but yourself.

And I'm not talking about
this leadership thing.

I'm talking about your friends, Sarah.

We need you to forgive yourself.

Why?

AJ slept with a married woman.

Danny cheated on his fianc�e.

Corinne cheated on her husband.

They've all made mistakes,

and they're terrified
that those mistakes

are going to swallow them whole.

Now, if you can do what you
did and come back from it,

maybe, just maybe, there's
hope for the rest of us.

You're our North Star.

You always have been.

You didn't ask for this, to be...
to be this person for everyone.

Those that keep the wolves
at bay always get bitten.

But hey.

If you're still bleeding,

you're still breathing.

Hi.

Adam and Josh are...

They're coming home this
morning, so you should go.

I will, but I'm not gonna go far.

What does that mean?

It means I'm staying in Greylock

for the foreseeable future.

I appreciate your help
with the custody case,

but that doesn't mean
that we can just...

I'm staying for Josh.

I'd like to get to know him,

if that's okay.

Things are gonna be really
complicated with our new normal.

What is your new normal?

Adam and I are staying in this
house in separate bedrooms

until we can explain everything to Josh.

It is gonna be really hard on him.
I don't want to make it harder

by adding a third
parent to the equation.

I get it. I'll wait as long
as you want me to.

Look, Danny, if you stay,

if you decide to become
a part of Josh's life,

you can't abandon him
like you abandoned me.

If you're gonna be in,
you have to be all in.

I'm not going anywhere, Corinne.

Sarah helped me to realize
that it's time to stop running.

So... here I am.

You kept a plastic skeleton
from our night in Town Hall.

- Yeah.
- So did I.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.
