Welcome to our show.
This macaw comes from

the tropical
rain forest of South America

where it feeds
on fruits and seeds.

What a colorful bird.

Let's send our macaw
back inside.

Man: We should have it done
by next week.

Well, there's nothing
I can do about it now.

This is very unusual.

Yes, I've never
seen this happen before.

I mean, not to an angel.
Now, why me?

Human beings ask
that question all the time.

I guess it's a mystery.
Are you afraid?

Not for myself.

Well, Monica's strong.
She doesn't need you.

I know that.
But does she know that?

You know, this
isn't going to be easy.

Not for anyone.
But god will take care of it
and use it for good.

God bless you,
my friend.

Father, please
give me the strength I need

to go through this.

Tess, are you coming?

Yes.

Is anything wrong,
Tess?

Yeah, just some days
are harder than the others.

Yes, but at least
we get to face them together.

I love you, angel girl.

I love you, too, Tess.

Sometimes...

Sometimes letting go
is the hardest thing to do.

Come on. It's time for US
to go to work.

Right now, we're looking
for a volunteer with a $5 bill.

Right out here.
This young lady.

Oh, she's going
to get her $5 bill.

The merger will become final
in about six weeks.

No, the transition process
alone takes some time.

Hey, daddy,
I need a $5 bill.

It's an integration process.

The shareholders are
gonna want to know that

we're eliminating redundancies
from the work force.

Take that $5 bill and hold it
straight out to the side.

Very good! What do we do
with all those nice $5 bills?

Right in my front pocket.
Wasn't that fun?

Would you like your $5 back?
Okay, hold out your hand again.

When you feel him
touch it against your hand,

just close your
fingers on the bill.

You're wonderful.
Thank you. Good job. All right!

You were great!

That man's overdue
for a priority check.

He could learn something
from that David.

Tess, that is David.
You know what I meant.

I meant he could learn
something from the other one.

You mean Alex?
Yes, where is the other one?

That David satterfield--

he can tell you
the current market price

on natural gas, on crude oil,

on electricity, on water.

But he cannot tell you the name
of his daughter's favorite book,

he doesn't know
who her best friend is,

and he cannot tell you
how many goals she made
in her last soccer game.

It's easy to see
what he needs.

No, baby, it's not
as easy as you think.

You can lose the most
precious things in the world

and not even know they're gone.
And don't you forget that.

I won't.
No, no, baby, I mean,

don't you forget that
no matter what happens.

Man: Thank you,
we hope you enjoyed the show.

(Applause)

Girl: The big one's
named Hannibal.

He's an African elephant
and he's 40 years old.

Wow. That's really old.

Whoa! Very funny.

We need those figures
as soon as possible.

David? David?
What?

You said you were
gonna spend the day with US.

I am.
No, you're spending it
with your phone.

There's a lot
going on right now, Carrie.

Yeah, I'm back.

Come on,
let's go see the lions.

Monica: Look, Tess.
Two fathers, two children.

One is making money,
the other is making memories.

Which do you suppose will
be more valuable in 30 years?

You already know
the answer to that.

Yes, but I don't think
that David does.

Shouldn't it be getting
cooler by now?

Why don't you sit down
and I'll get US both a drink.

Here you go, buddy.
Careful. Careful. Careful.

Oh!

If you want an ice cream bar
they're all out.

I see. Oh, well,
thank you for the information.

Two waters, please.
Sure.

Thank you.

Tess?

Hey, Tess,
what are you doing here?

Ah...

That-- that stripey
horsey-looking thing.

A zebra.

Zebra.

Yes.

It's a funny looking thing,
isn't it? The z-zebra.

David: Well, your merger
and acquistion proposal

all seems fine.

Though I have to say
I'm surprised Kevin Riley

isn't a part of your team.

Mr. Riley left so he could
spend more time with his family.

Oh, well,
good for him.

Mr. Satterfield,
you have nothing to worry about.

You and your company
are in good hands,

because Monica and I
have helped many people

through a lot more
difficult transitions than this.

It's a matter of getting
your priorities right.

Right...absolutely.

Yes, because Monica and I
have helped many people

through a lot more
difficult transitions than this.

So you said.

Um, so we thought
we'd introduce ourselves

before we get started
this afternoon.

Yeah, well,
it's always a good idea

to familiarize yourself
with the territory first.

Unfortunately,
I have a lunch meeting

in a few minutes.
So if you'd excuse me.

Susan, will you call Carrie and
let her know I'm going to miss

the parent/teacher conference
this evening?

She's not going to be happy.
Yeah, well, I can't help that.

Hello.
Hi.

Mind if I get your trash now,
Mr. Satterfield?

No, you go ahead.

Anything else?

Oh, yeah.

That zoo is something, huh?
Yeah.

Monica: Tess, please don't
take this the wrong way,

but I've been
noticing lately that you--

the light is green.

Tess? What's wrong?

What am I supposed to do?

Drive forward.

How?

Tess, what's wrong?

Where are you going?

Tess?

Tess?

Excuse me,
is everything okay here?

Well, ah, we're having
a problem with the car.

It's okay.
What's your name?

Her name is Tess.

Hi, Tess. I'm Dr. Coburn.
Are you in pain?

Does she have
a regular physician?
No.

Here.

Bring her
by my office tomorrow.

Thank you.

You'll be doing the driving
from now on, angel girl.

All right, Tess,
just one more question.

Who's the president
of the United States?

Now?

Yes, now.

I don't remember his name,

but his father
was president, also.

That's right.
Take your time.

John Quincy Adams.

Well, you certainly
know your history.

Baby, you have no idea.

I'd like to run a brain scan.

Do some more
comprehensive blood work.

It isn't necessarily
Alzheimer's though, is it?

The indicators are there.

The brain scan
will tell US a little more.

And we'll run some other tests

to eliminate
other possibilities.

It just came on so fast.

Everybody progresses
differently.

Let's just get
these tests scheduled

and then we'll go from there.

Well,
I don't understand this.

Maybe they should run
a brain scan on you, miss wings.

I mean I don't understand
why this is happening.

Why don't we just take
you home--back to heaven.

No, I have to stay here.

Perhaps it's not something
to get worried about.

I mean,
do you remember that time

when I became an elderly
human being temporarily?

So, you think
we should just ignore this?

Well, no, but Tess--

don't "but Tess me,"
this is new territory.

We don't know how
it's gonna work out.

So what should we do?
Finish our assignments.

Tess, if this is Alzheimer's and
it's progressing this quickly,

there may come a time when--
I need supervision?

Yeah.

That's true.
So what's your point?

Well, if Monica needs time
to spend with David

and my assignments are taking me
all over the world, then...

I might need
to be put someplace.

Yeah.
Like a nursing home?

Fine.
Absolutely not.

Excuse me?

We started this together
and we will finish it together.

And that's the end
of that discussion.

Acquisitions could be handled
by our sales department.

That would eliminate
two tiers of upper management.

This doesn't make sense.
Did you say something, Tess?

Yes, I'll be right back.

Maybe I should go with her.

Oh, give the lady
some breathing room.

These last few days

you jump every time
she sneezes.

All right.
Page 14, paragraph c.

Here we are--mergers
and acquisitions.

Let's take a look
at that.

Susan: Mr. Satterfield,
your daughter is on line one.

Excuse me.
Hi, sweetie.

Yeah, I know your play's tonight
but I have to work.

I'm sorry, honey,
but this can't wait.

Yeah, okay,
I'll try to call you later.

All right, bye.
Okay, where were we?

Uh, mergers
and acquisitions, okay.

Absenteeism at the
call-in center is a problem,
we'll need to address that.

David, what time is it?
3 o'clock.

Tess's been gone
for an hour.

Susan, is Tess
out there with you?

Susan: Well, kind of.

She's over here.

We'll need to
continue this tomorrow.

Are you kidding me?

We need to make some decisions
about the call-in center.

Tess, what's wrong?

I wanted to go
see that zebra again.

But I don't remember
how to get there.

That's all right.
I'll take you.

David: It's taken US two weeks
to cut the budget, Monica,

and now you
want to add to it?

Flex days help
to increase productivity
and job satisfaction.

Not enough to justify
the cost of the program.

Wouldn't you
like some flex days

so you could spend more time
with your daughter?

Fear not.

Excuse me?

Tess, you haven't said
one helpful thing

in any of our meetings
over the past two weeks.

Now, are you
part of this or not?

There's no need
to raise your voice.

I'm sorry, but there's
every reason to raise my voice.

We've got a deadline to meet,
and it's coming up fast.

Now, do either of
you two realize that?

(Knock on door)
Yeah?

Susan said you
were having a problem
with your desk lamp?

Yeah, yeah, I don't know,
it just stopped working.

I had Susan change the bulb.

I'll check the wiring.
Thanks.

At least someone around here
is doing their job.

Alex, wouldn't you like to
have a more flexible schedule

that would allow you more time
at your son's activities?

Well, sure.
Who wouldn't?

In the beginning, god
created the heavens and earth.

Yes, he did.

Where are we going?
We're working here, remember?

Oh...

Where are we going?

I'll get this fixed
right away.

Uh, yeah, thanks.

Where are we going?

Monica, may I have
a word with you?

Do you want to tell me
what's going on?

Tess is showing
the early symptoms

of Alzheimer's disease,
but she's going to be fine.

If Tess has Alzheimer's,
she's not going to be fine.

That's not the way
this disease works.

I know that's normally true...
It's true, always.

I'm sure this isn't easy,
but we both have a job to do.

We can't have
this distraction.

There's nowhere else
for her to go.

I know a place
that comes highly recommended.

They'll take
good care of Tess.
I can't do that.

I'll get the number.

Father,
please help me.

I don't know what to do.

Nurse:
We provide the basics

and you bring
the personal touches--

pictures, keepsakes,
that kind of thing.

This is only temporary,
Tess,

until I finish our assignment,
and then I'll take you home.

You said I was
gonna stay with you.

I tried, Tess.

It's always difficult at first.
There's a call button

on the side of the bed
if you need anything.

Oh, I'm not
gonna need anything.

I'm an angel.
This is only temporary.

I don't wanna stay here.

I know, but I really need
to finish our assignment.

I'll go with you
and I'll help you.

No, you'll be fine here,
I promise,

and I'll come back later.

I don't wanna stay here,
I wanna go with you.

Not this time, Tess.
I don't wanna stay here.

I don't wanna stay here.

Monica?
Why is this happening?

I don't know.
But god reveals everything
in his own time.

I like the green one.
But the blue one is nice.

I heard the
tornado siren today.

Hi, Monica.

Hello, Alex.
This is my friend, Andrew.

Hi.
Hi.

That's my dad, Carlos.

I better catch up.
You need some help?

Oh, thanks.

I asked them for chocolate,
but they only had blueberry.

I kept him at home
for a long time.

But I come by every night
and feed him dinner.

Isn't that right, papa?

These aren't my clothes.
Where are my clothes?

So, what are you
doing here, Monica?

I brought Tess here.

This is a nice place.
They'll take good care of her.

Woman: Of course,
the tower of London

is much larger.

I like the way the cheese
melts over the bread.

This is my wife.

It's nice
to meet you both.

This is Irene satterfield.
As in David satterfield?

This is his mother.

Andrew: There you are.

God reveals everything
in his own time.

Does she have any family?

Oh, yes, she has
lots and lots of family.

But they're very far away.
I'm her closest friend.

She's always
taken care of me.

Well, that's just
the way life is, honey.

She took care of you,
now it's your turn.

Hello, Tess.
Oh, Monica.

It's been three days.

Don't you think
you should get out of bed?

How was your lunch?
The food is terrible.

Would you like me
to get you something else?

I'm not hungry.
I just finished lunch.

I could really
use some Tess wisdom.

I'm having a hard time
with my assignment.

I just can't
get through to him.

Oh, and he has
an answer for everything.

Meanwhile, he's missed two of
his daughter's soccer matches

and his wife has
all but given up on him.

That's wonderful.
Tess, it's not.

If he doesn't change,
he's about to lose everything.

You just go right ahead.
Are you listening to me?

Is it lunchtime yet?
You've already had lunch.

It must be time for lunch now.
What should I say to David?

Could I have
a tuna fish sandwich?

Tess, are you
listening to me?!

Oh, I'm so sorry.
I'm sorry.

(Knock on door)

Good afternoon, ladies.
How are you doing today, Tess?

She hasn't got out of bed.

I see. Any pain?

No, there doesn't seem to be.

Thank you, Monica.
Let's hear what Tess has to say.

Well, there aren't
any physical limitations

that are keeping you in bed
as far as I can see,

and I'd sure like to see you
up and around a little more.

Good.

You're doing just fine.

It's going to take her
a little more time

to respond to things
than it used to

and she won't always
get it right,

but that's okay--
just let her try.

(Sighs)

Father, please help US.

Who are you talking to?

To god.

I talk to him
all the time, you know?

Yes, David, I will
get those numbers for you.

It's just that I've been
running a bit behind.

Okay, fine.
I'll see you then.

I'm messing everything up.

You need to cut
yourself some slack.

You are one angel
and you're doing
the work for two,

and you're spending all your
free time here with Tess.

I yelled at her, Andrew.
God forgive me, I yelled at her.

I know it's not her fault,

but I really
needed her to help me

and she wasn't
paying attention, and I...

I don't think that Tess
can help you anymore.

I know.

David,
I'm sorry I'm late,

but I was thinking,
and I have this idea.

Your daughter has another
soccer match in an hour.

We could take the budget
over there,

go over it,
and watch the game.

Do you realize
this merger closes in two weeks,

and we're not even
halfway through yet?

I know we're a little behind,
but think of your daughter.

How many things are
you going to miss in her life

before she stops asking you
to be part of it?

My family is not your concern.
But it should be your concern.

When I see you ignoring
your wife and your daughter

in the same way
you ignore your mother--

what?
Your mother is in the same
nursing home as Tess.

When was the last time
that you went to visit her?

We have a real
problem here, Monica.

Yes, I know.

And I have a dilemma, too,

because I have a job to do
and I can't abandon it,

but I can't abandon
my friend either, I love her.

So, I'm just gonna go ahead
and tell you what I know.

Things happen in this world
and we sometimes

aren't given the answers
that we would like to have,

but we are always given
the time with the people we love

before it's too late.

Please--don't
throw your time away.

How dare you presume to know
anything about me, or my life?

Let me tell you
what I know, hmm?

My mother was the smartest,
most creative, loving woman

in the world and I would
have done anything for her.

But none of that matters anymore
because that woman is gone.

And this one doesn't
even know I'm there.

And if I choose to work
a little harder these days

and do what I have to do
to keep things together,

then damn you
for deciding that's wrong!

(Telephone ringing)

Yeah.

Tell him I'll be right there.

I'm hiring
a new transition team.

Oh, no, David,
really, I can do it.

No, you cannot do this.

You have someplace
you have to be right now--

until you discover you
can't go there anymore, either.

Gentlemen,
thank you for coming.

I couldn't do it, Tess.

I tried to do both,
but I couldn't.

While I was there,
all I could think about was you,

and I think that
that's good and right because--

because I love you
and god knows that I do

and I'm sure that's
why he sent Sam and Rafael
to take over the case.

What is this place?

This is a nursing home.

What is this place?

It's a nursing home, Tess.

What is this place?

It's a safe place, Tess,
a good place.

I think...

I think I know that.

I'm sorry, baby.

But she knows god.
Don't you, Tess?

We need to have
a talk about this.

It's too late
to talk to her.

No, not to her, Monica.

I need to talk to you.

Sam, you don't
need to do this.

I know that
he holds Tess in his hands

and I know that
he holds me in his hands.

It's just that it still hurts,
it hurts so much.

Well, you know where
to go when it hurts.

God forgive me,
I can't go there right now,

I'm just so angry with god.

God didn't
give this to Tess.

I know that.

How many times
have I said

the same thing
to other people myself?

But I'm angry because
I don't understand this.

It makes no sense.

No, it doesn't,
at least not yet,

but all we need to know now
is that this too shall pass.

Perhaps not tomorrow, perhaps
not for a thousand years,

but god will take
the weaknesses of this world

and use them
to make US stronger.

Stronger?
I've never felt so weak.

I simply can't bear
another day of watching Tess

just slip away from me.

Sam, I can't bear it.

Now you know how David feels.

(Knocking on door)
What?

May I talk to you?
I'm busy.

What do you want?

I want to apologize.

Please forgive me.

I was so consumed
with my own loss

that I couldn't see

how much pain
you were in, too.

You just don't give up,
do you?

I almost did.

There was a moment

when it hurt so much
that I wanted to walk away,
like you did.

Tess was in a place
that I couldn't go to,

just like your mother.

But they didn't
go anywhere, did they?

That's the problem.

They are still sitting there.

At least their bodies are.

But it's not them.

It's not the woman
who showed me how to tie a tie

or spend hours
teaching me how to dance

so I wouldn't
embarrass myself at the prom.

That woman in that place,

that's not the one
who stayed up with me

for almost a week
when I had the mumps.

Or held my daughter and...
And told me she had my eyes.

She's no one.
She's a stranger.

So, why should I care,
Monica? Hmm?

Why should I waste
one more minute of my life

watching her drift farther
and farther away from me?

Because your mother's
spirit is still with her.

She may not be able
to communicate it,

but she can feel your love.

I wish there was a way
you could really know that.

There is, David.
I am an angel.

What?

I am an angel,

and god has sent me here
with a message for you.

You're an angel?

Yes.

No, that--that's--

that doesn't make any sense.

No, it's true.

I know that it's hard
for you to believe,

especially because

I haven't acted
much like an angel with you,

and I am
so sorry for that.

But I hope that
the lesson of my weakness

will help you
to become strong.

But if--if you're an angel,

then--then who's Tess?

Tess is an angel, too.

How can an angel
have Alzheimer's?

I don't know.

Terrible things
happen in this world, David,

to humans,

and sometimes
even to angels.

But god is strong,

strong enough to carry US
through the pain.

He's strong enough to help US
face the difficult days ahead.

God will hold US
in his hands,

if we let him,
because he loves US.

But he wants US both to know

that even if we have
lost those that we love,

we can mourn them,

but we must never
turn away from them.

We must never let
the pain become so great

that we lose
our memories, too.

It's so hard.

I know.

I know.

I know.

How's it going, Alex?
I'm running behind tonight.

Are you and Mr. Satterfield
gonna be working late again?

I don't think so.

You look a little tired,
are you taking care of yourself?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Deep down in his spirit,

your dad wouldn't mind
if you were a little late.

What are you talking about?
Your dad.

How do you know about that?

I know a lot of things, Alex.

I'm a terrible son
for putting him in that place.

I'm a terrible person.
No, you're not.

I tried to bring him home,
as he did with his mom,

but I couldn't.

It wasn't safe,
and my apartment's so small.

And you're doing
a great job.

You've honored your father,
as god commands his children.

You've protected him
and you haven't forgotten him.

God loves you and he's
very pleased with you, Alex.

You're a good son.

Somehow I feel better.
Thank you.

I am an angel
of the most-high god,

and I truly believe
with all my heart

that you won't be in
this darkness much longer.

Fear not, Tess.

Fear not.

You are coming back,
aren't you, Tess? Huh?
