Original subtitles

IRV: I´ve heard it said that...

...a retirement home is where people go...

...when life is through with them...

...before they´re through with life.

That expression was true enough in Everwood.

The Ransell family bought the old Hicks mansion in 1942...

...thereafter converting it...

...into Everwood´s sole retirement home.

People don´t tend to visit...

...the Everwood retirement home that much anymore...

...not that they ever did.

Don´t know if it´s the spirits of the past...

...or a premonition of their own future...

...but something keeps them away.

Then sometimes, just sometimes...

...a little light shines in this dark, empty place.

Okay, Charlie, you´re up.

IRV: Nothing could keep Dr. Brown...

...from dispensing his free medicine...

...where it was needed.

I need a refill on my Viagra.

How´s that working for you?

-Any side effects? -Happiness.

I prescribed a bottle for you a few weeks ago.

I think we should hold off for a little while, okay?

Oh, come on, doc, you can´t deny the ladies. Jeez.

EDNA: Come on, Charlie, let´s go.

ANDY: Who´s next? -Doc?

I´d like you to meet the honorable Judge Marvin Harrison.

ANDY: How are you today, Judge? -Right as rain, right as rain.

ANDY: Well, Edna´s gonna take your pulse.

I´ll give you a flu shot and we can call it a night, okay?

♫ You go to my head ♫

♫ You linger like a haunting refrain ♫

-Like Billie Holiday, do you? -My wife loves that music.

We´d dance to it every Saturday night at the USO.

You should see my wife move.

Best drumsticks this side of Radio City.

How long you been married, Judge?

Uh, see, since ´52. Seven years this coming month.

Uh, I´m not a judge yet...

...maybe someday but I just started practicing law.

Uh, Marvin, why don´t you go ahead and roll up your sleeve?

-Alzheimer? -Standard senile dementia.

It got a lot worse a few years ago when his wife Peaches died.

I´ve known Marv Harrison for eons.

He was Hal Senior´s best friend and golfing partner...

...as well as Junior´s Godfather.

Now he doesn´t remember any of us.

Must be hard to see him like this.

Heartbreaking.

Well, this won´t hurt a bit, Marvin.

-There we go-- -It does hurt.

It hurts so much.

-What hurts, the needle? -My secret.

I killed him.

There was blood everywhere that scorching summer.

Killed who? What do you mean?

Dead and buried so no one would ever find him.

[SIREN WAILING]

[POLICE RADIO CHATTERING]

EDNA: Now look what you´ve done.

Well, I called for advice, not a SWAT team.

Between this and busting Irma´s dope supply...

...I might have to deputize you, doc.

Do you really have to take him into custody, Roger?

He´s clearly not a flight risk. He can barely walk.

You just nabbed Everwood´s public enemy number one.

We´ve been trying to crack the 30-year Horace Hempleman case.

I´m about to crack something if you take this further.

Who´s Horace Hempleman?

Well, it was the scorching summer of ´72.

A handsome drifter by the name of Horace Hempleman...

...came to Everwood.

He had all the women in a tizzy...

...and all the men jealous with rage.

Then one day, he vanished.

Nothing left behind but his shoe.

With a knife through it.

And a note that said "dead and buried."

Oh, come on. He´s not serious, is he?

I told you we shouldn´t have said anything, bigmouth.

Edna, I--

You should be feeling good right now, doc.

Because of your tip...

...Everwood can sleep safe and sound...

...for the first time in 30 years.

[THEME MUSIC]

Why didn´t you tell me you weren´t feeling well?

-I´m a trouper. -You´ve probably got the flu.

It´s been going around a lot lately.

I guess you´re gonna get it now. You just touched my spit.

Doctors don´t get the flu but you have a very bad fever...

...so put on your pajamas while I go see if Nina can watch you.

-Then Nina´s gonna catch it. -I won´t be gone long.

I´m gonna go down to the police station...

...and fix this whole thing with Mr. Harrison.

The man you sent to prison?

-I did not send him to prison. -He´s really old, isn´t he?

He-- Seventy-eight.

So he´s probably gonna die in jail. You must feel really bad.

No one is dying in jail.

I´m gonna take care of it, okay?

You better bring me some juice before you go...

...because the kitchen´s really far away..

...and I´m feeling really weak.

[ALL SHOUTING]

Only one at a time. Now listen.

I can only tell you what little I know myself.

Old Marv used to live in my house.

I wonder if that´ll increase my property value.

At this time, Police Chief Murphy...

...is taking Judge Harrison´s statement.

Now, depending upon what´s said...

...Marvin will be processed accordingly.

You know if that will include fingerprinting?

I imagine so, Mr. Davenport.

Will that be red ink or black ink?

Does that really matter?

The Pine Cone readers deserve to know.

I heard old Marv bludgeoned Horace to death with a hammer...

...like Harrison Ford´s wife in Presumed Innocent.

At this point, we don´t even have a motive...

...a murder weapon, a body.

Or a murder.

And the Horace Hempleman case is 30 years old.

The most logical explanation is...

...that the drifter simply drifted to another town.

I demand that Judge Harrison be released immediately.

And that this gaggle of impressionable...

...fish-wrapped tabloid consumers...

...pack it up and go home.

And what makes you so sure he´s innocent, doc?

Marvin Harrison was my father´s closest friend.

The man is no more a murderer than any of you are civilized.

Marvin did confess, Harold.

He´s been exhibiting signs of senile dementia for years.

He´s mad as a duck, Rose.

Tomorrow, he´ll confess to being a turkey sandwich.

What do we do then, serve him in a deli?

Dr. Brown would never send an innocent, dying old man to jail.

Uh, I didn´t send anyone to jail.

All I did was call the police for backup.

I mean, help.

Advice.

Anyway, I´m sure that once I talk to him, we--

Once you talk to him?

No, I´ll be talking to him from this point, thank you.

Since I´m responsible, I´ll try and get him out of it.

And with your help, Marvin will end up in the electric chair.

You can both talk to him when Chief Murphy is done.

-if there´re no more questions-- DAVENPORT: Yeah, just one more.

Would the prisoner get a hot lunch or just a sandwich?

[ALL SHOUTING]

[SCHOOL BELL RINGING]

[STUDENTS CHATTERING]

-Nightmare, isn´t it? -What´s going on?

Besides my exact version of hell on Earth?

-Spoils of war. -Ha, ha.

The result of a commercially-financed assault...

...against the unattached individual.

-Valentine´s Day. -The week after is the worst.

Newbie couples have the life span of a monarch butterfly.

By Friday, the halls will be littered with crispy corpses.

Friday, that soon, huh?

Some of them will last, through the weekend.

Oh, that´s reassuring.

So it´s not like a complete waste of time.

Just more like a minor diversion.

So.

So.

Maybe you wanna do something with me this weekend?

You´re getting better at that.

♫ Oh ♫

♫ So much is said in this perfect silence ♫

♫ And we´re gone ♫

AMY: Hey, guys-- Oh, Laynie...

...I wanted to give you Colin´s biology homework...

...so you could give it to your parents to take to Denver.

That´s the homework and that´s the letter I wrote for him.

-It´s kind of personal. -I´ll make sure he gets it.

-Cool. Thank you. See you later. -See you.

Uh, so about this weekend, do you--?

I don´t think I can. I have plans.

We just--

I´m gonna be late for class, so I´ll see you.

He waived his right to have an attorney present.

Yeah. He´d wave a red flag if you told him

he was a bullfighter, Roger.

Hello, Marvin.

Did you catch The Tonight Show last night, doc?

I thought I´d bust a gut laughing.

It´s a good sign.

There´s enough mental clarity...

...to comment on current TV programming.

Current? Since when did anyone bust a gut laughing

at The Tonight Show?

-Who´s the host, Marvin? -Steve Allen. Who else?

Oh, criminy.

Wait a minute, he does seem to know who you are.

Marvin, do you recognize Dr. Abbott?

Oh, well, I´ve known Hal ever since I moved to Everwood.

How´s Edna and the kids?

Doc...

...he thinks you´re your father.

Those crack powers of deduction, Roger.

It´s no wonder Everwood´s crime rate is so low.

I tried to do what you said, Hal.

Tried what, Marvin? What did I say to do?

You told me I´d get in trouble, remember?

If I didn´t get rid of the body?

So I did.

I know you told me I should have burned it, Hal...

...but I couldn´t so I buried it in the backyard.

Dead and buried.

Dead and buried, just like the note said.

He did kill Horace Hempleman.

And he may have had an accomplice.

♫ You go to my head ♫

♫ Like a sip of sparkling burgundy brew ♫

MATT: Ludwig van Beethoven.

Piano Sonata Number 8 in C-minor...

...Opus 13, "Pathetique," movement three.

Beethoven was a little older than you when he wrote this.

But did he have 10 pages of Algebra homework every night?

-I think not. -Play.

[PLAYING SOFT CLASSICAL MUSIC]

Too slow.

Faster.

Don´t look down.

Still too slow.

You could have broken my fingers.

Now, you´re young, you´d heal quick. Get up.

[PLAYING UPBEAT CLASSICAL MUSIC]

Your left hand is too slow to play the lower octaves.

You haven´t been practicing.

I was gonna practice last week, but it was Valentine´s Day.

-I had a date. -Ah, the girl thing.

Well, it happens to be the one excuse I´ll accept.

-So, what´s the story? -Uh, her name´s Laynie.

She´s cool and for some reason, she likes me.

That is, when I´m not screwing things up.

-Heh. Get used to that. -Ha, ha.

-You need something? ANDY: No, nothing.

I figured you were finished and I´d catch the brilliance.

-We´re just wrapping up. ANDY: Ephram, do me a favor.

Take this soup up to Delia, and I´ll write Matt a check.

Later, Ephram.

ANDY: Thanks.

I don´t know if you were aware of this, Matt...

...but when Ephram was 9...

...he played Chopin´s Ballade Number 3...

...all the way through without a single mistake.

Andy, I was wondering if you could...

...maybe stay out of the room during the lesson.

Excuse me?

I wouldn´t want to muddy the waters with issues...

...you and Ephram have with one and another.

Well, we don´t have any issues.

-And even if we did-- -We went a half hour over...

...so that will be 150 instead.

Dr. Abbott, your view on your father as an alleged accomplice?

Davenport, if you print one word about my father...

...I will sue you and your Pine Cone...

...faster than Tom Selleck sued the National Enquirer.

I´m calling Rose...

...and having the Mayor´s office put an end to this.

Squelching this investigation, will make Marv feel guilty.

-But there´s no evidence. -He confessed twice.

He may have done this.

It seems impossible but he may be a murderer.

You really think he did it, don´t you?

That my father helped cover it up.

How well did you know your father?

Well enough to know that he´s innocent.

I´ll not rest until his name is cleared.

I´d even try digging a hole to China to prove it.

Here. Give me that shovel, you dolt!

Here, look at this, see this? Look at here, see this?

See? Told you.

Nothing here, folks, we can all go about our business.

Wait a minute. You see that?

Let me in there.

Dear God in heaven. Human bones.

[SIGHS]

[DOORBELL RINGS]

Don´t screw up. Don´t screw up.

Do not screw up. Don´t screw up. Don´t screw up. Don´t screw up.

-What are you doing here? -Uh, I´m-- I´m--

-I´m not sure. -That much is clear.

Here.

So we´re still on for tomorrow night?

Told you I was busy.

I know, but you´re not really busy, right?

You just seemed so uncomfortable yesterday...

...like I embarrassed you or something.

I´m gonna mess things up ´cause that´s just what I do.

But give me a real chance to mess them up.

I mean, I´m capable of such stupidity...

...you´d be wasting my talent to end this now.

Come out with me tomorrow night. I´ll take you someplace nice.

I´m completely terrible on the second date.

I wouldn´t miss it if I had the chance.

Please.

-So where are we going? -Well, it´s a surprise.

It´s a really, really cool surprise.

You have no idea where you´re taking me.

None whatsoever.

I´ll see you then.

Okay, let´s go through this one more time, Marvin.

Is that Horace Hempleman buried in your backyard?

Just say no, and we can all go home.

Hal. Is that you? I didn´t see you come in.

-Hi Marvin, how´s Peaches? -She´s wonderful.

She got me this shirt, says it makes me look sharp as a tack.

Quite fashionable, yes.

-Ask him about the body. -Oh, it´s useless.

He´s never gonna give us anything.

You didn´t tell anyone our secret, did you?

Uh, uh.... No, no, I didn´t. Mum´s the word, Marvin.

Like you said, don´t tell anyone.

Right...

...but, uh, I kind of need you to tell me now.

Was it Horace Hempleman that you buried?

Peaches just fell for him. She adored that little--

-Jim. -Who´s Jim?

-Jim who? -I didn´t mean to kill him, Hal.

You know I didn´t.

ANDY: Well...

...sure cracked him.

-Who the heck is Jim? -Who cares about Jim?

We don´t even know that a Jim ever existed.

They´ve got no evidence, no last name, no motive.

-They can´t hold Marvin on that. -And what about my father?

Everyone still thinks he´s complicit in a murder.

This town holds on to a scandal like it was the Shroud of Turin.

They´ll never quit. My father´s name will never be cleared.

Not even if Marvin goes free.

I don´t think I can live with that.

You could send Edna over to town hall.

Rose could get her access to the records we needed.

We can check birth certificates, property deeds, licenses.

We can cross-reference.

We can track down every Jim in Everwood history.

Go to my office, start assembling bones from the site.

You can use my examining table.

-I´ll be right behind you. -Right.

-Where are you going? -I´ve gotta make dinner first.

[PLAYING UPBEAT CLASSICAL MUSIC]

Ah. Well, well, someone got their groove on.

-I´ve been practicing. -Oh, practice my ass.

You´ve got mojo hitting those keys.

Give up the goods. Hit that lady yet?

We have a date.

Oh, I see, where´s this date gonna take place?

I´m not sure, still working on that.

Okay, okay, it´s not a problem.

-What are your options? -I live in Everwood.

So my options are pretty much the dollar-fifty theater...

...and the $3 movie theater and both are playing Lilo & Stitch.

-You ever heard of Ezekiel´s? -No.

It sounds religious. It doesn´t spell out action in my mind.

No, you´re gonna love it.

It´s a jazz bar about 25 minutes out of town, very old school...

...and the piano man will rock your world.

-But it´s a bar. -Yeah. No worries.

I know somebody who´d get you there.

-But it´s a bar. -Is your dad a problem here?

-No, he´ll be fine with it. ANDY: Over my dead body.

Why´re you asking me a question you already know the answer to?

-I didn´t have to tell you. -What does that mean?

[SNEEZES]

God, this old blanket must be full of dust.

-I´m trying to be honest. -Let me be honest with you.

You´re going to a bar over my dead body.

I think this compress needs more ice.

-It´s not very cold, Daddy. -Okay.

Matt will put me on the list. I won´t need a fake ID.

-Oh, that´s comforting. -I´m not going there to drink.

Besides, Matt will be there.

Oh, there´s a ringing endorsement.

Trust the guy who kicks me out of my living room?

You´re supposed to trust me which you obviously don´t.

I do trust you, Ephram. I just don´t think it´s appropriate...

...to be hanging out in bars while you´re underage.

I think that´s pretty logical.

Am I way out of line here?

Look. Why don´t you take Laynie...

...to a nice dinner, say at Alpine Creek?

I could drive you.

Matt´s right, you really don´t get it.

DELIA: Where´s that grape juice? -No, I don´t get it.

You´re 15 years old. To tell you the truth...

...I don´t appreciate Matt encouraging this kinda behavior.

I hired him to be your piano teacher, not your frat buddy.

-How does that feel, sweetheart? -Better.

Why do you have to ruin anything good that ever happens to me?

Okay, here´s the deal.

You can go to the bar, but I´m chaperoning.

Are you crazy? Wanna go on my date with me.

ANDY: Well, not with you, per se.

I mean, I´ll keep a respectable distance.

You can think of me as your own private secret service.

-Oh, no-- ANDY: No. That´s my final offer.

You heard the deal. Take it or leave it.

[DOOR OPENS]

[DOOR CLOSES]

Burning the midnight oil, Junior?

Diligent is the word I´d use.

-Still no word from city hall? -None.

You know, I do remember Peaches talking about a Jim.

I just-- I just can´t place him.

-Thank you, Mother. -Looks like an ulna.

HARRY: Yeah.

Just like your pops.

Never left a thing undone once he´d started.

Couldn´t let a patient down.

-Here, tibia maybe? -Yup.

It´s a disgrace the luddites of this town...

...would for 10 seconds...

...besmirch his name with these ridiculous allegations.

It´s awfully sweet of you to defend your father...

...but he really doesn´t need defending.

-This doesn´t bother you? -I know who he was.

You don´t think he was involved.

Well, do you?

I don´t know.

Dad and I worked together side by side for 12 years...

...but apart from cross-checking diagnoses...

...and his lunchtime inquiries about Rose and the children....

Well, let´s just say that we had a more formal relationship...

...than I would have liked.

Something like this happens...

...I wonder whether I knew him at all.

No. No, this is wrong.

It´s the other half of the pelvic bone.

This can´t be right unless....

Unless the man...

...Marvin says he murdered was actually....

A woman.

Yeah.

[PIANO PLAYING UPBEAT RAGTIME MUSIC]

That´s just showing off.

He looks older. You believe his fingers are moving that fast?

He´s gotta be working some serious Bengay.

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

[ALL APPLAUDING]

So...

...number one, how did you get us in here?

Two, how did you find this place? And three...

-...how did you get us in here? -I´ve got connections.

-Mob ties? -Oh, yeah.

-I´m all kinds of dangerous. -Ha-ha-ha.

So I don´t know how to break this to you.

-You´re married. -No.

-You´re leaving the country? -Stop.

You´re marrying Bright, and then leaving the country?

I was gonna say I don´t know how to break this to you...

...but you´re not messing this up.

You know, under normal circumstances...

...I´d try and lean in for the kiss right now, but--

Dad cramping your style?

Little bit. Yeah.

No problem. I´ve got you covered.

-Smooth. -I know.

I´m all kinds of dangerous.

[CHUCKLES]

[SNEEZES]

You´re coming down with the flu.

I´m not getting sick. I never get sick.

You´ve been sneezing and turning gray. Did you get a flu shot?

You know, we´ve never been around each other much...

...in a two-day period and I´m starting to realize why.

WOMAN: Alright.

Why exactly did we choose this hole-in-the-wall...

...for a tyte-y-tyte?

Ephram´s here on a date.

Your underage son has a date at a bar.

Not only do you know about it, you´re present for it?

I´m chaperoning.

You´ve got bigger problems than just murder.

I´m trying to be good by encouraging my son´s friendship

with his jazz playing piano teacher...

...who I hate.

You kind of had to be there.

But in the overall rubric of our twisted family dynamic...

...it actually makes sense.

Bartender, another water...

...and a Kleenex chaser if you´ve got one.

BARTENDER: You got it. -So, what have we got?

I got a man´s name and no person attached...

...a woman´s bones with no name attached...

...a perpetrator with no memory attached. It´s bleak.

It speak volumes about your father that...

...you´re so determined to clear his name.

It´s what any son would do.

Yeah, any son whose father isn´t a moron.

You said it, not me.

[SIGHS]

You were right about Ephram.

I´ve got all the parenting instincts of a ficus.

I was trying to teach Bright how to ride a bike...

...I got so fed up and made him cry.

-But that was just one incident. -Are you kidding?

I made Bright cry all over again when I tried to teach him...

...how to swim.

And shave.

Drive a car.

Do you think there´s any limit...

...to the times you tell a kid sorry...

...before he starts to realize...

...that you´re never gonna get it right?

Ah, this was a terrible idea.

[CELL PHONE RINGING]

-Hello? MAN: Dr. Brown?

-This is he. -I know something.

-Something about the murder. -You do?

-What do you know? -Meet me and I´ll tell you.

Why can´t you tell me now?

Well, let´s just say I´ve got something you want.

You´ve got something I want.

Meet me at the candy factory in an hour.

Who is this?

And bring your doctor´s bag with you.

[LINE HANGS UP]

HARRY: Who was that?

I think we just got our first anonymous tip.

Let´s go.

Grab me some pretzels.

[LAUGHS]

-You could be a pro. -I am a pro.

I´m having a good time, Ephram.

I just-- I don´t know. The other day when I saw Amy...

...I thought maybe you liked her or something.

Amy and I? Oh, we´re totally just friends.

I mean, we hung out a bit, talked about your brother a lot.

It was all Colin all the time.

I tried to get her to diversify, but no luck.

-It´s so ironic. -What´s that?

Her being so devoted to Colin...

...when he was gonna break up with her.

What are you talking about?

Well, he was thinking about it at least.

He told me a few days before the accident.

He liked her, but not as much as she liked him.

Did you tell Colin that when he came home?

No, I didn´t have the heart. I don´t have to.

He´s fallen in love with her. This time it´s pretty equal.

So Amy has no idea.

-No. No. -None.

You cannot tell her. You cannot tell--

Why would I tell her? I´m not an idiot.

Well, I didn´t mean it like that, I just--

I know what you meant.

[CAR APPROACHING]

[DOOR OPENS]

[MOUSE SQUEAKS]

HARRY: What was that?

-What was that? ANDY: How would I know?

HARRY: Well, did it sound human to you?

Yeah, in a metal hand scraping on concrete kind of a way.

HARRY: This is an ambush.

We´re as good as ants on a hot tarmac.

ANDY: Why would anyone wanna ambush us?

You know, why does a homicidal maniac want to do anything?

We know nothing about the identity...

...or the credibility of this guy.

He could be some diabolical publicity-mongering lunatic.

Charlie. What are you doing here?

I tried getting here before you arrived...

...but it´s slow-going with this thing.

You´re the one who made the call?

-What´s this? -I got eyes.

The cops go through, they miss things.

I found something they overlooked.

Now, me.

-You´ve got the bag? -Yeah.

Get out your prescription pad.

Charlie Katzenbach, I am shocked that...

...you would exploit a moment like this for personal gain.

You´re aware that narcotic use is illegal in the United States.

Ha. Who said anything about narcotics?

Viagra, Brown. Two bottles. Fill her up.

I can´t believe you´d toss aside your Hippocratic oath...

...without so much as a blush.

I wrote him a prescription for Flintstone vitamins.

What´s in there? Is it a clue?

-Family photos. -Oh, you´re kidding me.

Marvin and Peaches´ Grand Canyon trip.

Marvin and Peaches´ wedding night.

Marvin and Peaches´ town hall retirement party.

Great, great, great. What we needed.

What we really needed right now...

...after driving seven and a half miles outside of town...

...to haggle with that geriatric shyster...

...in this God-forsaken, rat-infested arson hazard.

It´s a nice stroll down memory lane with Marvin and Peaches.

And Jim.

Marvin and Peaches and Jim...

...their dog.

Think I broke some kind of bad date record.

-Are you trying to be charming? -It depends.

Is it working?

I don´t know what to say.

Then don´t say anything.

I wanna be honest but it´s hard because I didn´t know...

...I wasn´t being honest with you until tonight.

Denial works in mysterious ways.

You know, you were right about Amy.

I guess I´ve kind of always had this thing for her.

I don´t want to. I try not to, but can´t help it.

Then I met you and I thought you were so cool...

...and it would just erase everything I felt for her.

But it didn´t and now I feel like a jerk...

...for hurting your feelings.

I´ve had a really rough year, so up on my scale of misery...

...you barely even register. Don´t beat yourself up.

Barely register?

You know, brother in a coma--

I never wanted to be in a coma so much...

...until I moved to Everwood.

This place can do that to you.

So look, no harm, no foul.

We´re cool, really.

I´ll see you around.

See you, Laynie.

[DOOR LOCKS]

[SIGHS]

HARRY: So Jim was a dog...

...a detail that you might have mentioned earlier.

But really, no inconvenience. Don´t give it another thought.

Peaches could not take her eyes off that nasty little poodle.

Peaches loved that poodle more than she loved you.

That´s why you killed him. You were jealous of your own dog.

I came out of the garage too fast.

I didn´t know he was there.

Peaches was always telling me to slow down...

...but why own a Caddy if you can´t push it to the limit?

[SNEEZES]

Cover your mouth. You´re gonna give Marvin your flu.

I don´t have the flu, it´s just my allergies acting up.

You´re interrupting my investigation.

The investigation is over!

He ran over his dog by accident.

The worst they can do is send him to driving school.

I had to bury him before Peaches found out.

Case closed, people.

That´s when I found the bones.

You found the bones, did you say?

You told me to keep it a secret.

You said if anyone finds out...

...the property values go down.

Oh, good, great. Well, that´s-- That´s great.

We´ve just solved a real-estate mystery.

I´ve gotta tell you, I feel used.

Whether he hit the dog or not...

...what are human bones doing in a man´s backyard?

That´s a still question that needs answering.

Well, it may need answering by somebody but not Marvin.

At this point, you´ve got no reason to believe...

...he had anything to do with it.

We can all go home. Finally.

ROGER: I don´t think so, Brown.

-Sounds like you´ve the flu. -No. I don´t!

For heaven´s sake, you have the flu!

Next year, just take the damn flu shot.

The flu´s a dangerous illness. Kills people every year.

-Polio´s another doozy. -That´s it or that could be it.

I need to look into something.

Meet me at Brenda´s house with Davenport...

...and all the press you can round up.

What are you looking into?

He´ll tell me later.

Ephram, um....

Have you seen Laynie? I have a letter I wanted to give her.

I haven´t seen her today. Sorry.

Are you okay? You look kind of sad.

I always look sad. It´s my thing.

Oh. Um...

...so Colin´s coming home tomorrow.

I was thinking that since last time...

...we went out was a disaster, maybe--

-It was? -Yeah, it was for me.

-Why? -Um...

...I was just kind of all over the place about things.

But now I´m totally normal again. I mean...

...normal for me, that is.

And I think we should all go out together again.

Uh-huh. Sounds great...

...except Laynie and I aren´t really going out anymore.

Oh.

-Why? -We just didn´t...

...fit exactly.

Hmm.

Well, I´m sorry, that really sucks.

Well, it´s alright. I´ll live.

It´s hard to find a good fit.

You know, it´s like...jeans.

You know, most people have one good pair...

...and they wear them to death.

While others will forever be Dockers.

I wouldn´t worry, you´re not a Dockers kind of guy.

No?

Nope, you´re Diesel all the way.

From the spring of 1918 to the winter of 1919...

...25 percent of Americans contracted the Spanish flu.

My poor primrose.

It was arguably the worst epidemic in American history...

...killing over 600,000 people in one year.

Excuse me, doc. What does this have to do...

...with the price of cheese in Canada?

Alright, right now, in small towns like Everwood...

...when the epidemic hit, so many people died...

...mass burials were performed.

Lots of land all over the county became...

...burial grounds for those who died.

They couldn´t bury them fast enough.

Now, Everwood is known to have had such a site...

...though no demarcation of it exists today.

BRENDA: Oh, so what?

Who the heck cares what happened back in 1918?

Well, Brenda, you should, because if I am right...

...your house is located over that mass burial site.

Now, I´ve taken the liberty to dig a fresh hole...

...just a few feet from where the first bones were found.

Few more shovels...

...and we should uncover a whole new set of bones...

...buried in 1918 and not by the honorable Judge...

-...Marvin Harrison. BRENDA: This is ridiculous.

I-- If anybody would know...

...if there´s dead bodies buried underneath their house, it´s me.

I´m in real estate, I´m an agent, I know property.

Marcus, take it away.

[SCOFFS]

Yup, more bones.

MAN: Look. WOMAN: Oh, my God.

Very nice, Harold.

HARRY: Thank you, dear.

-Nice work, doctor. -Thank you, doctor.

You´ve cleared your father´s name.

That would appear to be the case.

[DOORBELL RINGS]

[SIGHS]

You´re early.

Sorry. Do you want me to wait outside?

No, Ephram´s just finishing up his homework...

...so come in.

Matthew...

...could I be blunt with you?

You´re pissed about the bar thing?

Well, let me put it this way. I´m not pleased.

You know, Ephram is very impressionable...

...and he looks up to you. An example, your son--

I´m not looking to set any examples.

You know why I wanted Ephram to go to Ezekiel´s?

I´m not good at Q&A, so why don´t you tell me.

I don´t care about his social life, I care about his music.

The guy who was playing there that night...

...is one of the best jazz pianists in the country.

I wanted Ephram to hear him play.

I wanted him to get excited by music again.

Right now...

...his interest lies elsewhere.

And as much as you or I would like it to be different...

...the kid is 15.

And being a great musician is not on his list of priorities.

He´d rather get laid. Sorry.

But we´re being blunt, right?

Right.

Your son is talented, Dr. Brown.

But there are at least a thousand other kids out there...

...who are better than him. And the reason?

They love music.

-Ephram loves music. -Maybe he used to.

But he doesn´t right now.

And I think you have something to do with it.

Not on purpose or anything...

...but the kid has issues with you.

With you being so interested in him pursuing this...

...is the exact reason he won´t.

ANDY: You, uh...

...noticed the tension, did you?

You went on his date with him.

Doesn´t take a genius to figure this out.

EPHRAM: Hey.

What´s going on?

Nothing. You are gonna have your lesson.

I´ll go to my room and slather myself with Vicks VapoRub.

-Overshare. -Sorry. Have fun.

Well, that should about do it, Marvin.

Anything else I can get you before I go?

No, I´m good. Thanks for the lift.

You can go on back to Edna and the kids now.

Oh, and, uh, give this 5 to Hal Junior.

Acing the finals the way he did, such a good kid.

-No. No, no. -Take it.

And don´t think I didn´t see you bragging about him again...

...at the golf course making Burt jealous.

You know it drives him crazy when you talk about Hal Junior.

I´ve told him we can´t all have extraordinary sons.

Some men are luckier than others. You were blessed.

Yes. Yeah, I was.

Take it.

Tell him his Godfather´s proud too.

I, uh...

...picked up a little something for you.

Billie Holiday. Is this her latest?

Yeah, I think it is.

♫ You go to my head ♫

♫ And you linger like a haunting refrain ♫

♫ And I find you spinning round ♫

♫ In my brain ♫

♫ Like a bubbles in a glass of champagne ♫

♫ You go to my head ♫

♫ Like a sip of sparkling burgundy brew ♫

[SNEEZES]

-Bless you. -Thank you.

Could you get me a tissue, honey?

The box is so far away.

Do you need anything else?

Some grape juice would be nice.

Oh. And some more ice for my compress?

[DELIA SIGHS]

[SNEEZES]

Well, I guess God does answer prayers after all.

I thought you might be enjoying this.

-I´m gonna go pick up some food. -Oh, Ephram wait.

Nope, sorry, I´m not your nursemaid.

-Delia´s got that one covered. -No, no, come here.

I wanted to apologize to you.

I should have let you go to Ezekiel´s alone.

I should have trusted you.

Hope I didn´t ruin anything for you.

Uh, it doesn´t matter.

Laynie and I aren´t going out anymore.

Well, I´m sorry if I wrecked your big date.

[CHUCKLES]

You may have tried to wreck my big date...

... but I did a pretty good job of that by myself.

Dating pretty much blows, doesn´t it?

Well, you know, Ephram...

...when you meet the right person....

No, it always pretty much blows.

[CHUCKLES]

MAN [ON TV]: You all know by now how much I love...

...those quirky small town news stories.

Here´s the best one that´s come across the desk in a long time.

How´d you like to find out that there were dozens of bodies...

...dozens of them...

...buried in your backyard?

Such was the case this week for a woman in the small...

...quaint little Colorado town of Everwood.

This discovery by a family doctor who lives there...

...came as the result of an investigation...

...by local authorities.

And here´s where this story gets a little weird, friends.

Authorities who were holding a senile...

...78-year-old man in custody...

...after he´d confessed to murdering someone...

...over 30 years ago.
