Original subtitles

(Irv) Last season on "Everwood."

You and your friends are at an age where

you're deciding when or whether to have sex.

You can talk to me if you ever need to.

I really don't see that happening.

Regency and Fidelity refused

to reinstate my insurance coverage.

You can't practice without your insurance.

I have a number for you. Tri-Gold Insurance.

They agreed to cover you as a new partner

in a practice with a good standing.

- An equal partnership? - Entirely.

Dear God, I will live to regret this, won't I?

(Ephram) You're it, Amy. You're the one I wanna be with.

There's no questioning it. There's no holding it back.

There's no overanalyzing it. I-it just is.

- So you're staying? - No.

I have to go to New York. I have to go for lots of reasons

but I want you to wait for me.

I'm just not very good at the whole waiting thing.

- Dr. Brown. - Madison, everything alright?

I'm late. I-I've been late.

Whatever you choose to do, I will pay for it.

I will support you. But Ephram is not to know.

- How? How could I do that? - You go.

[piano music]

(Andy) Dear Ephram, I know you're unfamiliar with the kind

of mail that doesn't require a DSL connection

but let me reacquaint you with a relic from the past

stationery.

So how's Julliard?

Things are going well here despite

the obvious missing of you.

Dr. Abbott is taking a bit longer to situate

himself into the office than I anticipated

but I'm sure things will return to normal any day now.

Then again, normal is a strong word

whenever Harold is involved.

[whirring] Any progress, doctor?

Hardly. These blue-collared buffoons

they're taking their sweet time.

Sorely miscalculating both the shelving space available

as well as how much I plan to pay them in overtime.

But I see you've, uh, taken advantage

of the hearing protection I provided.

- Yes, well-- - Oh, no, no need to thank me.

Here, take as many as you need, doctor.

I plan to match your generosity pound for pound.

In fact, I was thinking of asking the painters

to touch up your office as long as they're here.

Any, any specific color you'd prefer?

I'm good, thanks. I was just wondering just how long you--

Ah! Back to work.

'Uh, Bob?'

(Amy) Okay, try downloading the picture again.

I think I figured it out this time.

Even though I still don't fully understand

the difference between a jpeg and a pdf.

If that worked, I'll send you the others this afternoon.

I still can't believe it was only three days ago

I was eating hot dogs in Central Park with you

and now I have to go to Spanish class

with Senora Sawaya.

Summer school seems wrong.

Hola, me llamo Senora Sawaya.

Everyone find a seat and, uh, we'll get started.

(Amy) P.S. I found that Statue of Liberty penny

in my jeans pocket, so I guess I did take it

which means you were right

proving that there's a first time for everything.

(Bright) Dude, you are not gonna believe this.

I just made 37 baskets in a row.

How hot is that?

(Delia) Dear Ephram, I've been workin'

on a new look since you've been gone.

I'm telling you this 'cause you might not

recognize me when you come home next week.

My hair's longer and I'm wearing it down a lot.

Not that one. I still like it.

Eww. Why?

Oh, and if you see Lindsay Lohan

can you please get her autograph for me?

Brittany says she lives in New York part-time

and you'll probably see her.

Maybe you could get one for Brittany too.

(Andy) P.S. Please come home before your sister hits puberty

and burns the house down.

(Amy) I can't believe your flight got delayed again.

Are you dying?

Call me as soon as you get home, no matter what time.

♪ Tom get your plane right on time ♪

♪ I know your part will go fine ♪

♪ Fly down to Mexico ♪

♪ Da no da da no da and here I am ♪

♪ The only living boy in New York ♪

♪ Will I get the news I need on the weather report? ♪

♪ Oh I can gather all the news I need on the weather report ♪♪

(Ephram) 'I still can't believe my dad let you pick me up'

instead of him. How did you swing that?

It wasn't so hard, actually. Your dad and I did

quite a bit of bonding this summer.

What, you bonded with my father?

Why?

Well, he's a lot funnier than you give him credit for.

And he always pays when we go out

but mainly because he's the only person in town

who didn't mind me talking about you 24/7.

That's just way too weird to process.

I'm picturing you and my dad

splitting a Coke at Mama Joy's

and it's freaking me out.

- One Coke, two straws. - Stop it.

Okay, go. Sleep.

Call me as soon as you get up in the morning.

Will do.

Welcome home, Ephram.

He's all yours, Dr. Brown.

Oh, come here! Oh!

- Ah. - Alright.

- Alright, dad. Air? - Ah.

[sighs] How was your flight?

You know, Delia tried to stay up

but she just couldn't make it.

So how are you? Did you eat? Are you hungry?

More tired than hungry.

- God, you look older. - I am older.

Eight weeks older. My wrinkles are starting to show.

Well, let's get you to bed. You must be exhausted.

We'll deal with the details tomorrow.

I got it.

You, uh, want me to wake you tomorrow or, uh..

You know what, just sleep in.

- Goodnight, dad. - Goodnight.

Hey.

It's good to be home, isn't it?

[theme music]

(Delia) 'Ephram!'

Oh.

[laughs]

Hey, you're wearing a dress.

I've got more if you wanna see. Come on.

Okay.

- You're home! - Hey, Nina.

So how was it? Did you have a great time?

- Sam, no soda. - Mom, but I want it.

(Nina) 'Put it down.'

[telephone rings]

Hello? Hi, Amy. It's Amy.

Hey, Amy. Hey, can he call you right back?

'Everyone's just getting up around here.'

- Hey! - Oh, can't get over your hair.

- It's longer, isn't it? - A little bit.

Looks good. I also like those things on the side of your face.

- My hair's longer too. - 'Okay, ten minutes.'

She'll call you right back. Everybody, out.

Nina, you're taking Delia to Brittany's, right?

Absolutely. Let's hit it.

Come on, you guys. Okay. Welcome home.

[sighs]

You okay?

Delia was wearing a dress.

I know. It's weird.

So listen, there's something I wanna talk to you about.

And I wanna hear everything.

But first, there's something important

I need to talk to you about.

'Come with me.'

(Ephram) 'Wow.'

You like it?

It's, uh, whoa.

Everything is state-of-the-art, I think.

I had a contractor soundproof the walls

so you can play as late or as early as you want.

And, uh, I got a stereo guy

to, uh, hook up a recording gadget

so you can make your audition tapes come December.

So this is your new studio. What do you think?

I, uh..

Where are you gonna park the car?

Oh, don't worry about that. I sold it to pay for this.

This, uh, I mean, I, uh..

- Why did you do all this? - Because you deserve it.

You know, I was just like you when I was your age.

I knew exactly what I wanted to do

and I also knew how much work it was gonna be.

'And every day all I wanted was a place'

that I could call my own where I could do that work.

Where I could do all those things that you have to do

when you're on your way to becoming great.

- Which you are. - I, uh..

I don't know what to say.

Thank you.

Okay.

You get two of those. That's it.

Okay, well, listen, I better run.

Uh, Dr. Abbott's trying to implement a time-card policy.

So I'll tell you all about it at the dinner

and you can tell me everything too.

Is, uh, 6 o'clock okay?

Nina's been planning your welcome home dinner since July.

Sure, I'll be there.

Are you hungry? Who's hungry, huh?

I'm sorry, Mr. Jensen, I simply don't believe

that opening your own Pilates studio is a fiscally sound move.

Previous experience tells me that such a forward thinking

enterprise will last about as long on Main Street

as, oh, say, a bagel shop.

What about taekwondo?

Again, no, I'm afraid I cannot

in all good conscience, lease you the space across the street.

Have a nice day, Mr. Jensen.

10 feet, mother. Those are the rules.

At least 10 feet away at all times.

Do we need to review the guidelines again?

How much longer are you planning on keeping that space empty?

You enjoy losing money or are you just plain stupid?

Patience being a virtue you know nothing about

I don't expect you to understand, mother.

But it does no good to nurture the dream

of a simpleton with no business strategy whatsoever.

I am looking for someone with an actual plan of attack

someone with staying power, so I don't find myself

back in this situation come October.

And I will know that person the moment I meet him, mother.

My instincts about people are never wrong.

Morning, everyone.

We have fish.

(Harry) Yes, it's a 75 imperial gallon reef plenum system

which achieves its filtration through live rocks

sand and protein skimming. What do you think?

Oh, what do I think? Oh, I-I think it's great.

Not quite as great as the monolithic espresso maker

that, uh, I haven't learned how to use yet.

But better than the air-purifying system

that makes a humming noise all day.

See, now I find that the white noise

has a soothing quality to it.

Give it time, doctor.

So how's he look?

Fantastic. He grew 7 inches.

Seven inches in eight weeks. Not bad.

9 o'clock's here, boss. Let's get cracking.

- We're slammed today. - Send her in.

So there I am..

...one basket left to go. I mean, the pressure's on.

'Cause if I don't make this, I'm down to my socks.

This is so gross.

And if Gemma doesn't make it, we're talking full frontal.

Wait, wait, wait, when did strip basketball become a sport?

Was it in the Olympics? Did I miss something?

So, uh, I take a beat, take a full step back

focus my shot. Pfft.

And it is on.

Alright, i-it's on or it's in?

Because I'm confused.

All I know, dude, is summer rocks.

Especially, you'll see, summer of your senior year

your parents let you do whatever you want

'cause they know you gotta get all the nasty out

before you go into the real world.

Speaking of which, when do classes start at ECC?

Uh, five, six days. I don't know.

All I know is I got at least a week left

and nothing left to do, I plan to enjoy it.

And that cuddling, that's my cue to go.

It's good to have you back, brother.

[clears throat]

You know, I was thinking

we still have a few days before school starts, too

and um, maybe we could go on a little camping trip

or something?

Or Bright was talking about maybe driving up to Water World.

It's only a few hours north. It could be fun.

What, you don't like water parks?

Well, I'm not a huge fan of any activity

that involves a bathing suit.

But I-I guess I could make an exception for you.

Oh.

You have to go?

Uh, no, I just, I-I-I told my dad

that I would be, uh, ready for dinner by 6:00

and I haven't practiced all day, so..

Practice? Julliard's over.

Take a break, crazy man. Enjoy it.

I'll, uh, call you after dinner, okay?

Okay.

- We still on for Saturday? - Absolutely.

Hey, uh, Nina's here with Sam.

And not to freak you out or anything

but I have no idea how she got in.

Well, I gave her a key this summer.

It seemed to make sense considering how much time

she spends here. Is that okay with you?

Yeah, I guess.

Anything else happen this summer you wanna fill me in on?

Nothing I can think of.

- You alright? - Fine, fine. I'm just..

It's been a long day.

Alright, well, I will, uh, see you down there.

(Madison) Dear Dr. Brown

I've decided that I can't take your money.

These last two months in Denver have been more difficult

than I ever thought possible.

But I've come to a decision about this baby

and I need to move forward with it on my own.

You can no longer be a part of this.

There are so many things I wish I could undo

but most of all, I know that I should never have

come to you in the first place.

I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't contact me anymore.

Madison.

(Edna) Oh, good. You're here early.

That idiot offspring of mine wants us to go over these

new magazine subscriptions, which apparently we need.

Why are you hitting your computer?

Because it doesn't work

and I hate it.

Are you sure it's the computer that doesn't work?

MapQuest is supposed to be sending me to Denver

but I think it's trying to send me to Bob Denver.

A lot more questing here than mapping.

Who are you gonna see in Denver?

[sighs]

Madison. Is she okay?

Well, that's what I'm trying to find out.

She sent me this.

I tried calling her yesterday, but there was no answer.

So I figured I'd just drive down there

and see what was going on. See if everything's okay.

Mm-hmm. And what part of do not contact me don't you understand?

I just wanna make sure that she's alright.

That's a load of flapdoodle.

You just wanna know if she's still living there

so you can see if that short leash

you put on that girl is still intact.

Well, it is important that I know where she is.

Why?

Listen, Andy, I know you think you did the right thing--

I did what I had to do. Ephram would never--

Let's..

Let's not go down that road again.

'You did what you did and it's done.'

I may not agree with it, but I certainly

don't judge you for it.

The fact remains.

Keeping this secret is..

...killing you.

'And now that Ephram is home'

and you have to look him in the eye every day

it's only gonna get worse.

Look, even if I did regret the decision

there's nothing I can do about it now. I'm already involved.

But you don't have to be anymore.

You've been given a second chance.

Madison is releasing you.

She did what you asked of her, Andy.

Show her the same respect. Let her go.

♪ It's gonna be a long hard season ♪

What you doing?

Since when do you come into my room without knocking?

The door was halfway open.

Do you want me to put a lock on it for you?

- 'Cause I'd be happy to. - Sorry.

So guess what, Counselor Paulson told me

if I wanted to ride during the year, all I have to do--

Uh, Delia, out, now.

You suck.

♪ You'll have to travel so much distance ♪♪

Uh, excuse me!

You, sir!

You there. Uh..

No, I-I'm afraid you'll have to move that vehicle.

That, that space belongs to my partner.

Is something wrong?

Well, although we have yet to convince the city

to mark these spaces as reserved

rest assured, they do belong to both myself

and my partner, Dr. Andrew Brown.

Perhaps you've heard of him, world-renowned neurosurgeon.

I'm Jake Hartman, by the way.

Dr. Harold Abbott. Now i-if you don't mind--

Wait. You're Dr. Harold Abbott?

- Yes. - But you're so young.

Pardon me?

Well, a Dr. Harold Abbott worked on my dad's knee more than

30 years ago, but you couldn't possibly be the same person.

Most likely that was the work of my father.

We share the same name and..

...up until his death, we shared a practice as well.

Get out. This is unbelievable.

You have no idea how many times I've heard about your father.

My dad worshipped him.

- Really now? - Wow. Amazing.

Well, it's a real pleasure to meet you, sir.

An honor.

Yeah, I was just on my way to grab a cup of coffee.

- You care to join me? - I'd love to.

- Should I move my car? - No, no, you can leave it.

(Amy) I can't put my finger on it exactly.

- I just know something's off. - What are you blabbing about?

You guys were all up in each other's

goo yesterday. What more do you want?

Yeah, but he wasn't completely with me.

I mean, he was with me-with me

but mentally, he wasn't, you know?

No, no, I don't. Man, you're such a chick sometimes.

What's that supposed to mean?

It means that you are a drama queen.

Amy, you, you thrive on the crazy, okay?

It's like, your life is going really well right now.

'Y-y-you got a totally cool boyfriend.'

'He's totally into you and you are looking for problems.

- Why? - I'm not looking for them.

He's not mentally with you?

Wh-what does that even mean?

It means, it's-it's like..

- I'm crazy. - Ha, thank you.

I am. I'm totally freaking out for no reason.

- Why? Why would I do that? - Ah, it's alright.

You know, your life has been such crap-ass lately.

You probably forgot what it even feels like to be happy.

In fact, that whole weird feeling you're talking about

probably just a good mood.

You're right. That's probably exactly what it is.

There's nothing wrong with me and Ephram.

I just have to sit back and enjoy the fact

that I have a fantastic boyfriend, he's finally home

and we're gonna have the best senior year ever

because we totally deserve it.

Okay, no need to bust out the pompoms.

(Jake) 'Courchevel is the best.'

'If you're talking scope and size, you just can't beat it.'

'They've got these double black diamond runs that are unreal.'

That's if you're into, like, the whole Mondo Resort thing.

- Which I'm not. - Uh-huh.

- Deer Valley is good, but.. - Yeah.

...they, they've got this hate for snowboarders.

Now I'm a puritan at heart, but every now and again

you just want to jump on a board and get out there

and shred, you know?

- I do. I do. - I gotta be near good powder.

That's a big part of what drew me to Everwood here.

Do you realize that you live in the epicenter

of all of the greatest ski resorts in Colorado?

I-I mapped it out, you're less than two hours away

from six different spots

all with the most amazing conditions.

Yeah, but-but Los Angeles isn't all that far

from Squaw Valley. It's, I'm-I'm familiar with Squaw.

Yeah, but I'm just so over LA.

I'm just so burned out on the whole scene, you know?

It's the people, the traffic.

It's like we were talking about your dad.

There's nobody like that out in Los Angeles.

Doctors aren't making house calls

unless it's a silicone emergency.

And that's just not the way I wanna spend the rest of my life.

I wanna be around real people who are grounded

who don't need to wear Kabbalah bracelets

in order to feel like they're connected to something.

I'm just ready to start the next chapter of my life.

Maybe meet a great woman

to settle down with, start a family.

More coffee?

Thank you.

Anyway, I know this all sounds a little crazy--

Oh, no, no, not at all. No, I certainly understand

how the urban lifestyle can wear a man down.

Everwood would be a nice change of pace.

- It would, right? - Hm.

Now all I need to do is find a place to set up shop and I'm in.

Oh, is that so? So are you in the market

for a piece of prime real estate?

Oh, it doesn't even need to be prime.

So long as there's room to hang my skis and park my bike.

Well, you just might be in luck, Mr. Hartman.

Oh, please, call me Jake.

Jake, now I believe today maybe a, uh, serendipitous opportunity

for the both of us.

Yeah?

Excellent.

Yes.

So what do you think?

I think that poor boy's gonna faint when he sees you.

- Really? - Oh, I love you in that color.

You don't think the pink one's better?

No.

I still don't understand what's

so important about this date.

You've spent ten days together in New York City.

What could be more romantic than that?

Yeah, but this is our first official date in Everwood.

I mean, this is the beginning of what could be

the most important relationship I ever have, mom.

Well, in that case

I think you probably need a new pair of shoes too.

Oh, you're the best mom ever.

Oh, my God, how weird is that? Look.

- 'What?' - 'Look.'

It's like we're always in the same place.

Isn't that fate or something?

Well, it could be that there's only one Main Street

in Everwood, but fate's nice.

Here. I'm gonna call and say hi.

Cover me, so he doesn't see my dress.

[phone rings]

[cell phone rings]

Well, maybe your number didn't come up.

Sometimes when I get one of those private calls

I don't answer it either.

Yeah.

[knocks]

- Dr. Brown. - Mindy, I think we met once--

Madison's not here.

Are you guys moving?

You shouldn't be here.

- I know. - No, you don't.

You don't get it.

She trusted you.

You were like a father to her.

I don't know if you know anything about Maddie's family

but her dad took off when she was a kid.

And her mom's kind of a religious zealot

so you can imagine how well she took the news

about the pregnancy, which is why she came to you first.

I told her you wouldn't be the most objective person

in the world, but she defended you.

She said you were a good man.

She said you would help her.

I have tried to protect Madison from day one

and I'm gonna continue doing that, that is why I'm here.

That's not why you're here. You're here

'cause you wanna know if she kept the baby or not.

You're just trying to cover your ass.

And I'm not gonna help you do it.

I told her to call Ephram.

I told her he deserved to know the truth about the pregnancy

and about what kind of man his father really is.

- Mindy-- - Don't know if she did or not.

I just thought you'd wanna know.

Must be pretty bad.

You barely even grazed your whipped cream.

I'll just take the check, Nin.

Hey, Dr. Brown. Can I talk to you for a minute?

Now's not such a good time, Amy.

It's about Ephram.

What's the matter with Ephram?

I don't know.

Do you know of anything that could be bothering him?

Did something happen?

What exactly is he doing?

It's not what he's doing, it's how he's being.

He's all secretive and shut off.

I mean, he acts like everything's fine

but I can tell it's just an act.

I know him too well. You're not getting any of this?

Oh, maybe a little.

What could be so big that we couldn't talk about it?

We talk about everything.

Why don't you just ask him?

Well, that seems to be the only thing you can do

right now, right?

Or maybe I could just not bring it up

and this whole thing will just disappear.

That happens sometimes, right?

Sometimes.

Problem is, things you try to bury have a way of..

...digging themselves up again.

(Harold) 'Naturally, all the floors in here'

are true hardwood. Red oak, I believe.

Oh, they look great. Although I'm surprised

you didn't upgrade to that Pergo laminate.

- It's so easy to clean. - No, no.

My father laid this floor with his own two hands

back when Pergo was not an option.

Now I-I do remember he considered carpeting

at one point back in 1972, if I recall correctly.

He-he was feeling the need to modernize.

Luckily, I was able to talk him out of that nonsense

or we might be standing on a rust-colored shag

right about now.

It's a fantastic space.

You've kept it up beautifully, I might add.

'Yeah. It might be due for a paint job.'

Yeah, I was thinking that.

Of course, you'll never be able to match this color exactly.

M-my father and I, we could never agree, you see.

He was loyal to ecru while I have always preferred eggshell.

A minute difference, of course

but a trained eye could always tell.

Anywho, I was prepared to yield to my father's preference

seeing as how I'd only been a part of the practice for..

Oh, couldn't have been more than five years, at that point.

But my father took great pride in being a man of compromise.

So he took me to the paint shop, had Lawrence there mix us up

a batch of ecru-eggshell.

A winning combination as I'm sure you'll agree.

Yeah, uh, like I said, it looks great.

Amazing, isn't it?

All these years..

...it really does look exactly the same.

- Well, I'm sold. - Sorry?

It's perfect. I love it. Where do I sign?

Oh, right.

Perhaps you'd, uh, prefer to schedule an inspection

before we do any formal signing.

I don't think that's necessary. It's only a lease.

I trust you.

That, that's adorable

but I really do think that's for the best.

Uh, I'll call a few people, get some quotes.

And if you can't wait, you can't wait, I completely understand

if you feel the need to take your business elsewhere.

Elsewhere? I just said I love it.

Right, right, and, and thank you for stopping by.

Oh, there you are.

I've been trying to reach you on your cell.

'I've got a lot of messages that I think'

'we have to go over before we just..'

Well, what crawled up his butt?

Good morning, Dr. Abbott. Mr. McManus called.

- He was wondering if-- - Not now, Louise.

[crash] Aah! God! Aah!

- Are you okay? - What the hell is this thing?

Oh, it's, it's ergonomic.

I took the liberty of replacing your old chair

which didn't seem to provide enough back support.

I-I thought you'd appreciate it.

Appreciate it? Do I look like I appreciate it?

Not at the moment.

In fact, I don't appreciate

any of the completely asinine changes

that you have made to my office.

I hate the magazines. I hate the rugs.

I hate that thing you call a coffee maker

and I hate fish.

I'll have you know that many of those fish were imported.

- I went out of my way-- - Well, who asked you to?

I sure as hell didn't.

I didn't ask for any of these crap.

Well, forgive me for assuming that you might prefer

a top-of-the-line espresso machine

to your $5 garage-sale Mr. Coffeemaker.

And as for the rugs, well, there is only

so much wood a man can take.

- You can say that again! - What? What?

Oh, you're implying that I'm wooden?

- Is that what you're saying? - Wooden?

You are a 2 by 4.

Well, I can see my attempts at creating a positive

work environment have been completely undervalued.

I apologize, doctor, if I have made your office so unbearable.

I was merely trying to introduce some much-needed efficiency

into this barnyard you call a medical practice.

I want my chair back!

[piano music]

[knock on door]

- What? - You've been in here all day.

I just wanted to make sure you were still alive.

- 'Hiding from me or something?' - It's called practicing.

That's why you built this place, remember?

What's going on with you, Ephram?

You've had a major dose of attitude

ever since you got back here and I wanna know why.

- I don't have time for this. - Well, make time.

'What is going on?'

You didn't say two words at dinner the other night.

You're fighting with your sister.

Even Amy can tell you're upset about something.

Amy? You talked to Amy?

Yes, of course, I talked to Amy. I saw her at Mama Joy's.

- We talked for five minutes. - I cannot believe you.

How many times do we have to have this fight

before you figure it out?

I don't know. I don't even know what we're fighting about.

I don't want you having conversations

with my girlfriend behind my back.

I-I don't want you trying to fix things for me

when I'm not around because, newsflash, whenever you think

you're fixing things, you're actually making

things worse or didn't you figure that out yet?

You keep it up, Ephram, and I'll take this place back--

Go ahead, take it back! I never asked for it!

- I never asked for any of it. - What is this?

How did we get here? I thought you were done throwing tantrums.

I thought we were starting to communicate again--

Communicate? I don't see you communicating with me.

In fact, if anybody's been acting weird around here

it's you.

A-a-all the hugging, the-the big studio

what's it all about?

That's a little hypocritical, don't you think?

You expect me to tell you everything I'm thinking

when you don't tell me dick?

I tell you what I think is necessary.

Well, so do I.

What do you want me to tell you?

I don't know.

But you obviously have something to say.

Well, I guess we all have secrets.

Hootie.

Hootie. Hootie. Hootie.

Working weekends now, are we, or, uh, did I miss that memo?

[sighs] I'm simply here to feed Hootie.

I'll be leaving now.

Well, don't, please.

I'm sorry, Harold. I, I had no right

to blow up at you like that yesterday.

I just want you to know it isn't really about you

or Hootie.

Andy, despite what you may think, I was not trying

to change this office for my benefit.

If anything, it was a poor attempt on my part

to show my gratitude for everything you've done for me.

There's nothing to be grateful for.

We're partners now. My moose is your moose.

In fact, that's why I came here this morning.

'I wanted to get this hung before the Monday morning rush.'

Thank you, Andy.

Very thoughtful.

But?

Oh, I had no idea

how difficult it would be to give up my practice.

I-I've been turning down offers on that space

for the past two months, each rationalization

making more sense than the next.

Now I'm finally understanding it's me.

Are you having second thoughts about the partnership?

It's not the autonomy I miss, not really.

That office across the street

it's been in my family since 1948.

My father and I worked side by side

in that 1200 square foot piece of prime real estate.

There's a lot of memories there. It's..

It's hard to let go.

Well, you, you don't let go of your memories, Harold.

They, they live inside of you.

You take them with you wherever you go

whether it's moving to an office across the street

or to another state entirely.

Trust me, they hang on.

All that wisdom inside and yet the beard remains.

I just don't get it.

Well, I propose we hang this sign

and get back to whatever's left of our Saturday, shall we?

Why don't you do that? I think I'll just, uh

camp out here for a while.

Troubles at home?

Have you ever, uh, kept a secret from your children, Harold

'or even from Rose, for that matter?'

I'm certain I have.

And what if the secret in question involved them?

I mean, directly.

Well, if it involved them, I don't see how I'd be able

to keep it a secret for very long.

Not in my household. Why?

Eight weeks ago, I told Madison to leave town

after finding out that she was pregnant.

Ephram?

I told her not to tell him.

I also told her that I would take care of whatever she needed

for as long as she needed it.

But now I, I don't know where she is.

I don't know if she's had an abortion

or if she's decided to keep the baby.

I don't even know if she's told Ephram about any of this.

So you have no idea how to find her?

No.

But you think she's been in contact with Ephram?

Maybe.

I'm not sure.

I know he's been fighting with me.

He's been fighting with Amy.

Oh, my God.

Do you think that he's told Amy?

I don't know.

But it's possible.

So I talked to your camp counselor today.

Mr., uh, Paulson.

He said if you wanted, we could go visit your horse.

Delia, come on.

You can't do this anymore.

Do what?

Yell at people for no good reason

and then pretend you didn't.

I'm sorry I yelled at you, okay?

I don't care that you're sorry.

You still did it and I didn't do anything to you.

I know, I've been going through some pretty big stuff lately.

- So.. - So what? So have I.

And you never asked me about me, not once.

I said I was sorry.

Why are you giving me such a hard time?

'Because..'

...I waited for you too.

I'm so happy you changed your mind, Hal.

I was a little worried for a minute there.

You got a little freaky-deaky on me

but now that I'm back in this space

I feel such a strong, positive energy.

I know this is going to be the best decision I ever made.

- I can't thank you enough. - Oh, you're more than welcome.

Alright, there you go.

Signed, sealed and delivered.

I've enclosed a cashier's check for first

and last month's rent plus security deposit.

And the insurance rider's in there too.

Excellent.

Well, I'm sure you'll have many happy years here, Jake.

I hope so. You're a tough act to follow.

Well, that's kind of you to say.

But I'm sure that your business will be booming in no time.

I, for one, am looking forward to having

a sporting goods store here on Main Street.

I'm sorry?

Or will you be specializing in

uh, ski equipment? Either way--

Well, I-I think there's been some kind of misunderstanding.

I'm not opening up a sporting goods store.

- Oh, you're not? - No.

- Oh. - I'm a doctor, a GP.

This is going to be my medical practice.

Your, your what?

How could, how could you.. You're, you're 12 years old.

[chuckles] You're sweet.

I've got a kick-ass dermatologist back home.

He's actually gonna swing by a couple of times this year.

I can make an appointment for you if you want--

No, no, no, no. This is lunacy.

I-I specifically remember you saying, all you needed

was a, was a place to hang your skis.

- Well, that clearly implies-- - It was a-a figure of speech.

You know, a place to hang your hat.

Gosh, I really thought that we talked about this.

I'm-I'm sorry for any miscommunication.

But i-in any event, it's all right there in the lease.

Look, I should really get back to the house.

God only knows what kind of damage

the movers have caused by now.

I'll see you later, Hal.

It's Harold.

Dr. Harold Abbott!

[doorbell rings]

Hey, Dr. Abbott. Is Amy home?

Hey.

I'll be upstairs if anyone needs me.

- You look nice. - You're breaking up with me.

- Aren't you? - What?

Just get it over with, please, fast.

- What is this? - Just read it.

It's from Julliard.

It's my evaluation from the summer program.

- Basically, I failed. - What?

How can you fail piano?

Ah, apparently, there are many, many ways.

But you're an unbelievable player. I've heard you--

Hey, please, please, don't.

I mean, I-I know you mean well, but it just makes me feel worse.

So this is what's been bothering you?

Yeah, that's it.

I wish you would have just told me, Ephram.

I mean, I know what you're going through.

My report card last year was terrible.

It's not a report card, Amy.

This is my entire life, my whole plan

and-and it's falling apart.

My dad redid the garage, so I could live up

to my genius potential, but as it turns out

I'm not a genius, I'm, I'm average.

If I wanna be anything other than average

I'm gonna have to practice my ass off every day from now

until winter when the auditions come up again.

- So that's what you'll do. - Yes, that's what I'll do.

But..

...where does that leave us?

What do you mean?

I mean, you wanna do all this stuff. You..

Well, you wanna go camping and-and go to Water World

and do all these things that we should be able to do together

since we're this new, happy couple

but I-I just, I can't do it all.

I can't, I can't help

Bright pick out all his classes for ECC.

I can't be there for Delia, I can't sit down

to "The Brady Bunch" family dinners with Nina.

- So you're breaking up with me. - No! No, I don't, I don't know.

I-I don't..

I, I-I just..

I-I-I just need m-more time to figure it all out.

You know, I-I just, I need more time.

Okay.

- Okay? - Okay, Ephram.

Take some time.

Figure it out, call me when you know what you want.

I'll be here.

For a while, anyway.
