Just say,"mom,tommy didn't come back from mexico.

" Why me?

Because I'm always having to break the bad news.

I'm like the family grim reaper.

Okay, you know what? Someone--

mom--is gonna blame us for this,all right?

I think you, the smooth-talking lawyer, should tell her.

Why?

Because--justin, here, try one of these.

Scotty is making 200 of 'em for the opening of center tomorrow.

I want an unbiased opinion.

I'm, uh, I'm not hungry, mom.

Why? You're always hungry.

Uh, uh, bottoms up.

it's like heaven, ma.

Good. Well, at least something's on track,

because Shawna Renaldo canceled on us.

I've got all these families struggling with cancer,

and this diva can't be bothered to show up and sing.

I don't even know who that is, mom.

Well, she was third runner-up on that singing
competition show.

Kevin told me about her.

He voted for her 18 times or something.

What? She happens to be a genius.

She was totally robbed.

Well, to hell with her.

I'm not gonna let her spoil what you're about to do.

You think I can't guess what you're up to?

and it's so great that you want to honor my center privately, as a family.

It means so much to me.

I'm gonna go upstairs and get ryan, tell him we're gathering.

Oh,you--you didn't hit him up for a donation, did you?

Because I don't think he has two nickels to rub together.

-No. -Okay,good.

That's great. Now we're including freakin' ryan in our family meetings?

Forget that. She thinks we're about to hand her a big check

how much money do you have on you?

I've got,uh,$5 and a couple of pesos.

I want that back,though.

hey!We're here.

We're here,and this better be good,

because I came all the way from santa barbara.

This better be quick,

because we're supposed to be moving into our greenatopia offices today.

yeah,and I-- did anyone bring a-a checkbook?

You know what?Forget it.It's not gonna help.

Help what?What's happening?

We have to wait for mom.Come on.

You know family meetings have rules.

Oh,okay,then check this out.

New greenatopia space-- the boys are so impressed.

You want to see impressive?

Okay,are you rey for this?

A 3 week old who can already hold up his head.

-look at that face. -That's early,kitty.

Paige was- uh,well,fancy that.

He's already up and out.

The first early riser in the history of the walker family.

what are you talking about?

I got up every--every day...

mom,when I was at rowing camp...

can we start?can we start?!

Yes!Yes!

N-no,no.Tommy's not here.

That's actually what we wanted to talk about.

tommy's not coming because he didn't come back from mexico with us.

Mexico?

-You went to mexico? -Yeah,it was sarah's idea.

What?Wa uP.No.

I told him to get tommy off my couch.

I didn't say "take him out of the country.

" Well,the judge didn't think he was a flight risk.

What are you saying,kevin?

Where is he now?

Well,we don't know 'cause he didn't tell us where he was going.

-Well,did you try him on his cell? -Yeah,of course.

-He's not picking up. -Oh,my god.

He--he could be lying in a ditch somewhere.

He's not,because he left us a note.

What did the note say?

You know what?You can jump in at any time here.

Okay,it--the note said,"I'm sorry,t I'm t coming back with you.

" So do you think he's trying to skip bail?

No,he's spending every waking hour getting ready for his court date next week.

Yeah,that's why we went down there,

mom,to talk him out of fighting the charges and take a plea.

Why?

-Because he did it.He didn't stand a chance. -he's guilty.

Well,no wonder he disappeared.

-I told you we'd get blamed for this. -Well,yeah,you know what?

It's ptty stupid to take him to mexico.

-What? -Listen.Does holly know?

No,and don't tell anybody,okay?

That includes rebecca.

Especially rebecca.

Do you have any idea where he is now?

I think we can safely say somewhere in mexico or central america.

Oh,stop it.All of you,stop it.

Tommy is going to come back.

My god,he's got a wife and a child.

He's not gonna abandon them.

He left julia a letter.We took it to her this morning.

what did it say?

Well,we didn'ready it,but I think it's pretty obvious what it said.

You don't know.

The only thing obvious here is that tommy needs help,and believe me,

if it was any one of you,he would be the first one up and out the door.

What are we supposed to do,mom?

Look,I'm not gonna stand around here and pretend there's nothing we can do.

-Anybody pretending? -No.

I can't believe you went all the way to wilshire for the,

but it is so worth it.

Well,I do sort of have an ulterior motive.

Oh,yeah?

I was kinda hoping you could help me out with something.

Yeah,sure.What is it?

Well,you know how your mom said she didn't know anything about the affair my mom had with william?

Yeah,I really don't think she did.

I know.I believe you.I just...

I have a feeling there's a way I could find out more.

About the affair?

About why she died.

I'm telling you,the week before she went to reno,she was good.

I mean,she was better than good.

Something must have happened.

And you think it was william?

Well,what if they talked or what if she saw him?

Maybe there's travel records or phone bills...

at ojai.

They did meet through business.

Yeah,but even if they were still in contact then,what would that give you?

A reason why she killed herself.

listen,I want to help you,it's just-- this is where I work.

You know what?

-Never mind. -I know how important the truth is.

I mean,people lied to me my whole life-- no,really,it's okay.

I overstepped.

I'm sorry.

-Hi. -Justin.

Oh,look,I,uh,I-- I shoulda called first.

Um-- hey,justin.

No,ryan just brought over some bagels.You should come in.

Uh,no,thanks.

Is something wrong?

It's no big deal.It can wait.

You know what?Why don't you guys catch up?

Uh,are you sure?

Yeah,I'll just,uh,I'll take mine for the road.

-see you later. -Bye.

it's not what you think.

What do I think?

Justin,why are you here?

Look,I,uh,I just wanted to see you.

Come in.

You're here.We tried calling you.

Oh,I'm so sorry.

I was,uh,caught in the middle of a-- well,the site overloaded.

There was way too much traffic,which is a good thing,

but-- we had to dip in the reserve fund and buy more server space.

Good.

Okay,well done.

Really?

-You're not mad? -No.

That'shat I would've done.

-Nice. -Well...

-good. -Let's hope we're on a roll.

Go get 'em.

-The office looks great. -I know.I painted it myself.

What's this?

There it is.

New business cards.

Made from recycled cereal boxes.

D with soy ink.

Come on,you guys.You didn't have to.

Yeah,we did.

I mean,without you,none of this-- like,

not one bit of this-- would've been possible.

Yeah,I mean,you could've walked away so many times,but you didn'T.

You don't like them,do you?

No,they're great.Come on.I love them.

No,it's just,uh...

there's this family thing.

Oh,did somethinhappen?

Yeah,but I don't really want to go into it.

Besides,this is a very important day for us.

We should enjoy it.

I'm sorry to just show up on your doorstep like this.

I tried to call but-- no,it's fine.

Here's the letter.

I hope you don't mind,I need to get lunch ready.

Uh,the sitter's gonna be back with elizabeth soon.

No.No,it's fine.

You go ahead and just do whatever it is you have to do.

I'm just really grateful you would le leerla.

I don't understand.

How could he not tell you where he's going?

he stopped telling me where he was going and what he was doing a long time ago.

Did he leave anything else for you?

Sides some dirty laundry?

Nope.

Nada.

Oh,I don't know.

Ever since saul and sarah left ojai,and then elizabeth got so sick,

he--he just lost track of who he is.

You don't need to make excuses.

This is exactly who he is.

That's not true.

I believe what he says here.

He loves you and elizabeth.

He...

abandoned us without explanation,nora.

That's not how normal people express love.

Julia,I'm begging you-- I'm begging you-- he says he will contact you.

When he does,please convince him to come home.

I don't want him to come home.

You don't mean that.

I do.

I'm done.

I'm--I'm telling you that my brother is in trouble.

Trouble?He's a fugitive.

How long have you known about this?

Kevin told us about it this morning.

No,I'm not talking about the disappearing.

I'm talking about the embezzling.

I found out about it when you were in the hospital.

And you didn't tell me?

No.No,I didn't tell you.

You weren't supposed to be under any kind of stress,and plus,

we were-- we were just trying to,I don't know,figure it out.

This isn't the kind of thing that you guys can solve with 75 phone conversations

and a chicken dinner.I...

well,now we just gotta figure out a way to minimize the damage.

To my family or to your campaign?

Both.

Your brother is such an idiot.

He'll get caught,he'll go to jail

and make everybody's life a living hell without a thought for anybody around him.

I may never see him again.

Good.

You wonder why I didn't tell you sooner?

where are you going?

I'm gonna go get some air.

Brothers.and.Sisters. Season3 Episode 20

Hi,evan.

-Hi. -Hi.

Yeah,but just remember,don't touch.Just look,okay?

I'm--I'm sorry.Have we met?

I mean,I-I haven't been sleeping lately,

so it's quite possible that we met and I don't remember.

no.we met evan the other day with his grandmother,I think.

Yeah,my height,brown hair,large bottle of hand sanitizer?

That's her.yes.

Uh,I'm alec.

I'm kitty.

-I know. -O are you?

And that'S...that's ben.

-BeN. -Ye

-He's cute. -Thank you.

You know,I used to watch your tv show,"red,white & blue.

God,that seems-- that seems like a lifetime ago.

I heard you're taking a break from politics,

but somehow you found time to write a book about it.

Oh,ye Ye.Did you read it?

Actually,your mom told me.

No,no,of course.

Well,I--not that I-- no,I'm sorry.

That was-- no,not that I wouldn't love to.

I'm sure the book is brilliant,but,uh,you know,these days,

unless it's for him or about him,en,uh,I just-- I really don't have the time.

I totally,totally get that.

look at you.You're a pro with the burping.

You know what?It's not true.

I'm--I'm the worst burper in the world.

well,I was useless.

But ben--he made it easy on me.He'd just vomit.

Oh,that's--that's lucky.

oh,um,um,what do I-- uh,okay,wait.Okay,

It's okay.There you go.

I'm sorry.Sorry.It's just-- no.

It's--no,it's just that I'm hoping for a call.

It's--it's okay.Listen,it was nice meeting you.

It's my broth-- it's a long story.

-It was nice meeting you. -it was nice to meet you,too.

-Hello. -Hey.

I'm sorry.Could you come home?

Oh,robert.

I'm-- I'm at--I'm at the park.

Yeah,I know,but I-- I want to talk.

Okay.Okay,sure.

So I thought maybe you'd like me to take you out to dinner.

This being hollywood,

I found a guy who knows a guy who got us a table at that new pizzeria on melrose.

I'm dying to go there.

Good.***

Oh,I-I don't know.

The board meeting is this monday.

It's the first one without tommy.

Right.I wasn't talking about monday.

I was talking about tonight.

I-I know,but there are gonna be tons of questions about how to proceed from here,

and I have to be prepared.

All right.

david-- no,holly.You're right.

We can get pizza anytime.

Don't act like that.

Hey,I get it.

Really.

You run the place now.

You deserve that.

I've come around.

Just do me a favor and remember the big picture.

But that'shy I'm doing this.

They might want to find someone to fill tommy's position,

and I can't let that happen.

I thought the big picture was you,me and rebecca.

Look,my memory's not great,

but I seem to recall you telling me that the reason you were doing all of this

was so that we would have a shot as a family.

You're right.

This can wait.

And whmeant at I said,david.

You are my priority.

You just said ojai was your priority.

Well,I'd hate to pass up a $50 pizza.

will you please just tell me what happened down there?

Look,nothing.It--it doesn't matter.

Was "it" wearing a bikini?

Not that I'm in any position to care.

Rebecca,I want you to care.

All right,look,the truth is,what happened in mexico...

is that I missed you.

I mean it,so much.

I mean,I was a wreck down there,and nothing felt right without you.

You know,it--it's okay if you don't feel the same way-- no,it's not that.

I mean,it's been hard being apart from you,too.

That's good,right?I mean,you know,from--

from my standpoint.

Ye.I mean,look,it's not like I don't have my moments

where I just wish I could forget everything and just...

tell you how much I love you and I miss you-- so why don't you?

Because nothing's changed.

I mean,we can say that we're gonna keep our families out of it as much as we want,

but it's impossible,and I just-- I can't go through that again.

But things have changed,all right?

Tommy's not at ojai anymore.

You know,there's no--there's no conflict of interest there.

Justin,come on.

I mean,if tommy goes to jail,

you think that your mom a-and saul and sarah are gonna forget how he got there?

There's always gonna be resentment,and we're always gonna have to choose sides.

But we don't have to.

Rebecca,we learned our lesson.

Can you just give this a chance?

I mean,maybe we could...

just hang out some more and kinda see where it goes.

You know,uh,we'll take it slow.We'll...

we'll see.

Okay.

Your mom invited me to the opening tomorrow.We could go.

tommy's gonna be there.

Yeah,I guess.

I was just hoping that maybe we could hang out,just the two of us.

Ye.Yeah,that's-- that's a better place to start.

Ye

And can I ask you a favor?

Ryan's gonna be there tomorrow,and just be nice to him.

He's going through some stuff right now.

Are you kidding?

Ryan-- new best friend ryan.

-Okay,you don't have thao got far. -Okay.

did you have fun at the park?

Uh,ye.Ye

Listen,I'm sorry about today.

You told me this terrible thing about tommy,and I was just a jerk.

And I can see from your expression that you agree with my assessment.

Pretty much.

Well,at least we're on the same page.

Are we?

Yeah,look,I want to be there and support you and the family.

I already called nora.

All we can really do is just hope that tommy changes his mind and--and comes home.

Maybe he will.

Yeah,maybe he will.

Oh,um,I hear there's a scheduling conflict with shawna renaldo.

Don't tell me.You're gonna be the new floor show.

Listen,if I can't find tommy,I can at least give a speech.

Maybe I'll sing it.

Are--are you sure that you're up for that?

Yeah,it's a charity event,not a 10k.

All right.

Scotty sent over the champagne.

And the florist that he mentioned is donating the arrangements.

Good.

Okay,that is about it for the opening,and then it's on to the hard part.

Maggie,you're gonna be a wonderful director.

I hope I don't disappoint you.

I've never run anything this big before.

You're the mother of a cancer survivor.

You've negotiated more bureaucracy than most people see in a lifetime,

and you've run a family,

which is exactly what I wanted the center to be-- a big,

extended family for people who need it.

I'll--I'll be there to support you any way I can.

What about you?

I'm not a psychiatrist,

but your doodling does not look like the work of a woman who's just fulfilled a dream.

Yikes.

it does look a bit disturbed.

Is there something I can do to help?

Oh,no.No,it'S...

it's nothing compared to what you've been through.

Nora,olivia is all better.

I've got this incredible new job.

I feel like the luckiest person in t world.

so tell me,what's going on?

Oh,thank you.

I just don't think there's anything anyone can really do to help.

You're telling that to the wrong person.

I happen to know there's always something you can do.

Nora,please.Come on.Slow down.

I'm not following you.

The doctors told her there was no hope for her daughter.

She found a radical new treatment.

She got them to use the treatment,and it worked.

Yes,yes,that I understand.

But what does that have to do with tommy?

We have to do something radical to save tommy.

If maggie can have faith under those circumstances,so can we,for god sakes.

Nora,tommy doesn't want to be saved.

You don't know that,saul.

Please help me.Please.

Okay,what is this radical thing that we're supposed to do?

Well,as luck would have it,I have invited ojai's board to my opening tomorrow.

We have to convince them to go to the D.A.

To get him to drop the charges against tommy.

-Why would they do that? -I don't know.Loyalty.

We've known them for 20 years.

You have to understand that the board has a fiduciary responsibility to the company.

That is where the loyalty lies.

Y are you putting yourself through this?

None of this is your fault.

Saul,I hit him.

The last time I saw him,I hit him.

Nora...

I have to do something.Please help me.Please.

Please help me.

I'll help you.

because the trh is,places like this aren't born out of legislation or lobbying.

They're from people.

People with vision.

Why is there so much press here?

Something tells me they're not here to rave about my caue no est*n aqu?

today we honor the vision of nora walker,

whose dedication to community

and to those in need led her to founding this center.Nora.

I gotta hand it to her.She really did it.

Yeah,I wish she was enjoying it more.

I'd like to introduce another extraordinary woman.

She faced her daughter olivia's diagnosis of leukemia with unwavering courage.

She is the new executive director open doors-- maggie stephens.

thank you.

thank you.

You should get some with your family.

Oh,good idea.

Oh,walkers.All walkers.

Not all walkers.

Everybody.

Ryan,come on.Come on.

Get or here.

Ryan?What is this,soccer practice,just swap one kid in for the other?

-Oh,be nice,justin. -Hey,man.

Yeah,just be phony like kitty.

I'm sorry.Was that your foot?

Ye.Oh,that's a nice tie.

Oh,ye.I'm sorry,man.

I didn't have one,and your mom-- you know what?

Actually,it,uh,it's fine.

It looks-- it looks better on you.

You should,uh,you should keep it.

we look like we're doing "a chorus line," for goodness sakes.

Scrunch in.Everybody.Scrunch.Scrunch behind.

You know,scrunch together.We can't be all in front.

-Okay.Here we go. -Ready?

Okay,thank you.

Thank you.Thank you.Thank you.Thank you.

Okay,look,you ke harvey childs.

He's--he's over there talking to that doctor.

-Right,I saw him. -And--and I'm gonna find gail banks.

-Okay,good luck. -Saul,we can do this.

-Okay. -Go,go.

look,the point of it is,there are so many people-- I mean,

if you look at jim who is my good friend,a congressman and a democrat,

there are ten different issues that we can get together on.

But everybody always focuses on-- I'm--I'm sorry.

Excuse me.Can I talk to you for a minute?

Sure.One second.

What's up?

I thought that you were gonna take it easy.

Oh,that?Oh,relax.That's fun for me.

Do you know what happens when you tell somebody to relax?

It actually has the opposite effect.

It's scientifically proven.

Okay,I'll finish up,and I'll come find you.

Kev,kev,kev.

I need you to go over there and be the communications director

and--and shoo away all that press.He...

-kevin? -What?

Are you crying?

No.I've just been talking to maggie stephens.

Do you know the story of how she helped her daughter through chemotherapy?

No.

You wouldn't believe what she went through.You know...

we really have to treasure every day,because life--ugh-- it's so fragile,you know?

Carpe diem.

Oh,right.

Right,right.Okay,

I'm--I'm gonna remember that.

But right now,I need you to go over there and carpe robert away from the press.

I mean,he--he didn't sign up for that.

He's fine.He invited them all.

No.

Ye

No,no.No,he invited them all for himself?no.

I think that's the idea,ye

It's his fir public appearance since his "minor" heart attack.

Oh,unbelievable.

No,that is-- that is truly unbelievable.

This was supposed to be some big,altruistic gesture,

and-- kit,you know what?

You'll never get this day again.

Do you really want to spend it bitter and angry?

No.No.

That's exactly what I'm trying not to do.

Good.

But what I am gonna do is I'm gonna go to the bar,

and I'm gonna seize the day over there.

Thank you.

-Alec. -Right.

From the pK.

Of course.Of course,right.

And you're not-- working the party?

-No. -No,I'm sorry.

That's my-- no,it's okay.

I just saw the white and black-- white shirt,black pants.

And I just said,"waiter.Waiter." Waiter's uniform.

-I'm sorry. -It's okay.

So what are you doing here?

Uh,your mother invited me.

Oh,so she just ropes in any random park goer and brings them to her events.

well,actually,I've been active in cancer charities since my wife died.

So I was glad to be included.

No--oh,my gosh.I'm--I'm so sorry.

Thank you.

It was a while ago.

Oh,god.

and I hate the way that always brings conversation to a screeching halt.

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

I'll--I'm--um-- it's not just you.

It's--it's everyone.

So...

so,uh...

your husband gave a good speech.

Oh,oh,ye

He's--he's,uh,he likes that.

Oh,you know,we never got a chance to talk about evan's,

you ow,his,uh,issues.

You can say gas.

Gas.

no,I-I did.I tried everything.I tried over the lap.

I tried over the shoulder.

And it just,I don't know,it just doesn't seem to work.

Do you ski?

Ye

Okay,I'm told that if you press their knees up into their chest-- oh,like a downhill tuck

and maybe he'll win a gold medal someday.

He's still not picking up.

He's not going to,man.

He's too busy catching waves.

God,what re we thinking,taking him to baja?

You know what?Stop.You sound like mom.

I'm serious.

Tommy knew what he was doing.

Why didn't we just leave him alone?

Because he was gonna lose.

You know what?We should be down there looking for him.

And what,if we found him,he's gonna come home with us?

Kevin,he left his wife and kid.

You know what?

If you want to be angry at him,go ahead.

I can't be,not--not right now.

you know what?Good for you.

Hey.

Hey.What's up?

What are you doing out here?

Just,uh,just chillin'.

I'm usually not a big wine drinker,but this is really,really good.

You should try some.

I'm sorry,man.

I totally forgot.

Yeah,you know,it's-- it's no big deal.Don't worry about it.

Look,I'm--I'm sorry if I was a little weird over at rebecca'S.

Well,for the record,man,you don't need to be.We're just friends.

I know.

She told me.

She's a really cool person.

You know,I can--I can see why you were so bummed when she broke up with you.

Actually,I think we're,uh,we're getting back together.

-Really?That's great. -Ye

Good.

Is she here?I mean,

she said she was invited.

It's,uh,you know,it's complicated.

She doesn't know about tommy,huh?

I mean,it makes sense.

Her mom is the prosecution,right?

Don't-- don't worry about it.

Oh,I'm not worried.

I just-- I thought the whole lying thing was why you guys broke up in the first place.

Excuse me?

I get it,man.

You have to put your brother first.

I mean,you wouldn't want the D.A.

Knowing about all this-- you know what?

Leave my brother out of this.

And while you're at it,leave rebecca out of it,too.

Hey,take it easy,man.

No,what--what do you want?

Seriously,what do you want?

I mean,you move into our house,you're living off our mom.

Oh,I'm sorry.I forgot.

That's youjob.

You know what?Just because our parents slept together

does notean you belong here.

Belong?

Is that why you think I came here?

Will you tell your mom I found my own ride home?

Rvey,the rest of the boardlistens to you.

If you take the lead on this,the others are gonna follow.

Yeah,but we can't ignore the fact h thateme was bezzling the company.

Yeah,but,harvey,ojai stands nothing to gain if this goes to trial.

Hi.

Mind if I join you?

What,are you two ganging up on me?

Well,harvey,if that's what it takes.

okay,what are mom and saul up to?

I've just seen them sucking up to harvey childs,and I know mom hates him.

They're on a mission to get tommy's charges dropped.

They want the board to go to the D.A.

-Oh,well,that's the wrong road to go down. -What?

You know,when's mom gonna realize,this family's hold on ojai foods,it's over.

How can you y that so glibly?

It's not glib.It's the truth.

Yeah,well,I'm not sure I can live with that.

It's over,sar

Enough.

ryan,hey.How's the opening?

Actually,I'm at nora'S.

That was quick.

Yeah,well,I wasn't feeling very welcomed.

Oh,no.What happened?

Look,I know you and justin are getting back together...

uh,we're not back together.

He seems to think differently about that.

Either way,he made it pretty clear that he doesn't want me near you.

Oh,my god.What is wrong with him?

I think the fact that I exist pisses him off.

Plus,he's probably just a little worked up about tommy.

Wait,what about tommy?

What,he didn't tell you?

Tell me what?

Tommy took off.

I think he's somewhere in mexico.

Yeah,but justin said that he was gonna be there today.

Well,you should probably talk to him about that.

Yeah,I will.

but listen,whatever he said about staying away from me?

Forget it.We're friends.

He doesn't have a say in that.

I was hoping you'd say that.

Tommy,it's me again.

Listen,I know you don't want to talk to any of us,but I want to talk to you.

Tommy,you'rmy brother.

I love you.

But you gotta come home.

So what?

You screwed up,you know?

But we can get through this,together.

Nothing else matters...

okay?

I-I don't even care about what happens to ojai anymore.

I just--I want you to come-- I'm sorry.

The voice mail box you are trying to reach is full.

Please try again later.

need this?

How did you kn I know.

******.

i know.I heard.

How could he do this?

I don't know,s

Did you mean what you said,though?

What about?

About not caring whether we lose ojai?

I don't know.

Sarah,come on.

You and tommy practically grew up at that place.

Dad always said that you had the company in your blood.

It's hard for me.

I can't imagine what it's like for you to watch this whole thing slip away.

Are you trying to cheer me up?

-Cause it's not really working. -Sarah,I'm just trying to be real here.

Of course I care.

oh,tell jocelyn to pass the kebabs,or they sit on the buffet and get cold.

scotty,could I get a glass of water?

Yeah,su-- are you all right?

Yeah,I'm fine.

Well,you don't look fine.

I think it's my heart medication.It makes me a little...

-light-headed. -Oh,my god.

You need to sit down.

Here.

It'll pass.

-Well,drink that. -Thanks.

Craziest park parent?

Yeah,that's--that's a no-brainer.

It's donna kabrel.

-Have you met her? -Wait a minute.

She's-- she's not the one who makes her kid wear those,um,those gloves?

yes.Yes,you have met her.

Tell me,do you think that's about germs or do you think that's a fashion statement?

No,no,it's even worse.

they're grippy gloves.

Grippy gloves?

What--what are grippy gloves?

To cling better to the jungle gym.

Yeah,she also makes her wear grippy shoes.

-No way. -Yes way.

No,you're kiddingE.You know,that's actually-- kitty,come quick.

Let's go.

What's wrong?

Excuse me.What--what happened?

What happened?Hey,are you okay?

I got a little light-headed.

This is dr. Flackett.

Did he tell you that he had a bypass surgery about a month ago?

I'm not sure that this has anything to do with that.

Well,now let's let someone with a medical degree decide that.

Your blood pressure's still elevated,senator.

You need to go to the hospital.

I'll call an ambulance.

Wait,h-hold on.

I may have,you know,shaken too many hands out there,but let's not get hysterical.

Hysterical?Nobody's hysterical,robert.

-She's a doctor. -She's a pediatrician.

Senator,I'm happy to call your cardiologist and let him or her know where you're headed,

but you need to go.

Does this mean I can call an ambulance now?

-Yes. -No ambulance,no.

We'll drive.

you're angry?

I'm not angry.

Come on.You barely said anything the entire ride home.

I know that you warned me to take it easy,and I didn'T.

We just spent six hours in a hospital getting every check known to mankind,

but I--I'm fine.

My numbers are good.

My blood pressure's lower than it's ever been.

Yeah,that's great,honey.

Is this about tommy?

Is that what's-- I don't want to talk about tommy,okay?

-Please. -What do you want to talk about?

Come on.Let's--let's have it out.Let's fight.

I want to fight.I want to have the fight.

We've had the fight a million times,robert.

-It never does any good. -Well,I don't get it.

I-I stepped in for you mother today.

It went really well-- no,no,you know what?You didn't step in.

You were just making sure that the first story

that hit the papers after your heart attack made you look good and noble.

And I got the center ten times more attention than it ever would've had.

So what is the problem with that?

nothing.

Nothing.You're absolutely right.

Sorr it was.It was good for everybY.

I don't know what you want from me anymore.

I don't want anything.

I just want to go to bed.

How was the opening?

Uh,you know,it was good.

You didn't miss much.

Yeah?

I know why you didn't want me to go.

You lied to me about tommy.

What,did ryan tell you that?

He's my friend,and by the way,you have no right to tell him to stay away from me.

Don't you see what he's doing?He's trying to get between us.

This has nothing to do with him.

You lied to me.

This iexactly why we could never work.

You always put your family first.

Look,I didn't put my family first,all right?

I took you out of it.

Only because you didn't want me to tell my mom about tommy.

We're trying to buy him time,rebecca.

If the judge were to find-- I don't want to hear it,justin.

This is exactly what I was talking about.

I can't do this again.

So what,you're just gonna give up on us?

Well...

I shoulda seen that coming.

We both should have.

No.No,that can't be right.

When did it happen?

Well,I don't see that I have much choice.

Fine.

I'll see you at the meeting.

What?

How could they be so heartless?

I don't know.

You did a lot of good for a lot of people today,sis.

Yes,yes,yes.But...

I realized there's more than one way to lose a child.

Oh,you haven't lost him.

He knows youove him.

He'll be back.

Then why doesn't he call?He must know how wried we all are.

mom!

In here.

Oh,good.You're up.

Well,our eyes are open.

I don't know if we're up.

Well,I've got some news that's gonna get your blood moving.

What?

-I'm going back to ojai - what?

I'm replacing tommy as president.

-When did this happen? -Forget when.What about why?

I-I called erydy on the board,

and I said that I'm not gonna let my father's company slip away from the family without a fight.

-They agreed. -Oh,my god.

What are you gonna do about greenatopia?

I-I don't know.I haven't figured it out.

I'm just-- I'm taking this one life-altering step at a me.

What are you gonna do about holly?

Well,harvey called her,so she knows.

What's she gonna do,put a hit on me?

sweetheart,please,don't be doing this to be a martyr.

Oh,mom.It's not like that.I promise.

Tommy risked everything to keep our company in our family's hands.

He just--he went about it the wrong way.

Now it's my turn.

I have to try.

And I'm not doing it for anybody else.

There's too much of me in that company just to let it go.

I want to honor that.

Now we have to figure out what to do about tommy.

Well-- don't count on the board dropping the charges.

We tried that tonight.We failed.

Well,as a matter of fact,I spoke to harvey,

and I told him why I thought it was bad for business to keep the case going.

He said he'd think about it.

-Oh,sarah,sarah! -No,no,no,mom.

no panting,no bobbing,okay?

-Mom,stop clapping. -All right.

We don't know everything yet.It's still with the D.A.

It's probably not gonna work.

that's what the doctors said to maggie stephens.

-What is she talking about? -Hope.

She's talking about hope.

Well,I--I'd like to thank you all for your trust and your continued confidence.

Well,moving on,uh,the next,uh,

bit of business on the agenda-- my brother's legal matter.

Now I know this has been difficult for everybody involved.

But we have a chance today to put it behind us.

With that in mind,I'd like to suggest

that we approach the district attorney about having the charges dropped.

Actually,sarah,I know we spoke last night,but in the light of day,

the board still has reservations.

Yeah,we just don't think it's appropriate for us to get involved.

And I completely respect that position.

There is no doubt my brother tommy's culpable.

But restitution has been made.

And I just don't think it's in our best interests to have this matter go public.

Yes,yes,sarah is right.

This--this could do serious damage to the ojai name.

You know,with all due respect,nora,wenow where you stand.

I just don't see the harm if we-- you don't?

How would it look to our employees,our clients?

And how would it look if we destroyed the founder's son?

Now I realize that I set this io motn,but the danger to ojai has passed.

We need to move past this,too.

Well,I have to say,I'm surprised to hear you say that.

Why?

William walker created a family business.

This is about family.

I intend to vote with my new partner.

And I'm also going to withdraw my cooperation as a witness.

How you proceed as a board...

is up to you.

well,uh,should we put it to a vote?

May I ask why?

I guess that means you got the vote.

Holly,I came to you a couple of o,s ag

and I implored you to have the charges against tommy dropped.

You refused.

So what's changed?

You're here now.

We need to work together.

So you're willing to put everything that's happened behind us?

Sarah,I always said that I would put ojai first.

I did it with tommy,and I'll do it with you.

I'm just thinking about the bigger picture.

Welcome back.

Thank you.

this is useless.There's too much stuff.

Oh,come on.We're making progress.

Thanks for doing this.

Yeah,well,I'm tired of secrets.

I have william's expense reports from august and september,

and I'm not seeing any phone calls to bakersfield,no conferences he went to.

Whoever filed this needs to be fired.

It says "expense reports," and it's filled with shipping invoices.

Wait,hold on a second.

What--what day did your mom get in the accident?

October 17th.Why?

he was in reno.

I guess like your mom.

This is a hotel bill from october 16th.

I knew it.

No.I-I mean,you don't know what went on.

I think it's pretty obvious,isn't it?

They spent the night together in a hotel...

no,no.It--that--

and she killed herself the very next day.

It had to be him.

That son of a bitch killed my mother.

Ryan,I don'T...

-I have to go. -You don'T...

how's the burping coming?

Well,we tried it.

And,uh,we're still as gassy as ever.

Hey,ben.

okay.

I have one other idea.

Let me-- you know what,alec?

Can we just not talk about burping today?

YeYeah,I'm sorry.

I didn't mean-- no,no,no,don't be sorry.

No,no,it's me.I'm just--I...

I don't--I just...

I have a lot on my mind,that's all.

I'm a good listener.

Yeah,and ben-- he's gonna be flinging sand at the other children for at least an hour,so...

I'm all yours.

come on.

All right.All right.Well,

okay.Then I'll...

it's my brother.

He's,uh,you know,no-- nobody knows where he is.

So now we're just waiting for him to call.

Oh,my god,sar.I am...so sorry.

Yeah,but-- but you don't have to leave greenatopia,right?

I mean,selfishly-- we can't do this without you.

Yes,you can.

When the site crashed,you guys handled it brilliantly.

Right,but what about when there's a real crisis?

-That was nothing. -And there'll be one.

But I wouldn't leave if i didn't think you could do it.

Me andim?Are you kidding me?

Before you,we were living in,like,a low-rent sty,drinking beer in the shower.

I got a lot of good ideas that way.

You did.

Listen,it doesn't change the facts.

This company was your idea.

Now you're hiring employees,you're developing new clients.

Everything that you've built here,it's yours.

Like...

ojai belongs to you.

Ye

nora.

I don't need to come in.

I just wanted to tell you,the D.A.'S dropping the charges.

They are?

Ye

There's no excuse for what he did.

So whatever you have to do,julia,you should do.

I'm not here to appeal to you on behalf of tommy.

But you're a mother,so you understand,

there is no amount of anger that can make me stop loving him.

So if he calls...

yes,I'll tell him it's okay to come home....

you know what?

It was easier being angry at him.

Now I wish I could just talk to him.

Ye

Rememb that night on the beach where all he talked about was starting over?

A clean slate?

I know.

I want that.

We all do.

Here we are you think he's gonna come back?

I don't know.
