Let's step on the scale,

You've got a lot of history
and biology to overcome.

Your ghrelin is out of whack,

and you've got
high leptin resistance

making you feel hungrier
than you actually are.

But then your body is terrible
at signaling

when you're truly full.

Add to that
all the emotional stuff

you're working through,

having a healthy relationship
with food

will be a lifelong battle
for you.

- Well, then it's a good thing
I'm halfway done, right?

[chuckles]

- You'll need someone
to work with you

on your ingrained
emotional assignments to food.

- No, no, no.

No, I really like going
to group.

It's great.
I share in there.

Everyone's really supportive--
- Iggy.

You haven't logged in once.

- No, that's not true.
I've--

- The system keeps track.

You have to stop lying
and do the work.

There's someone I want you

- It's a recovery coach?

What is that, a food monitor?
Food chaperone?

That's not happening.
No, absolutely not.

reached critical lows.

from high school

There was a ten-car pileup

We gotta target non-sick people

that parents need right now

more than anything?

Time away from their kids.

So the puppies will babysit
the kids,

a quiet moment to come in

and give us
their life-saving blood.

- Why not just get
human babysitters?

- So...?

- Anita, your biopsy revealed
something unusual.

The technical term for it is,
you're a chimera.

You have two different DNAs
in your body.

- How is that possible?

- It's a rare condition

that can happen in utero
in twin pregnancies.

- But I'm not a twin.

- You were.

When you were just an embryo,

you had a fraternal twin
who didn't come to term.

A sister.

In the womb, you absorbed her,

including her ovaries,

and that's the second DNA.

Which is why
the blood test said

you weren't Elisa's mother.

Elisa was born from your body

but from your sister's egg.

- So I'm...

I'm not her daughter?

- Elisa, you may
look different,

but what this proves

is you're actually more
than your mother's daughter.

Not less.

- I'm sorry you felt different.

I should've made you
feel special.

- I guess we both kind of are.

you're letting
a random homeless woman

live in a hospital closet

completely unsupervised.

I mean, what do you even know
