WILL: Just try to write down
everything you remember

from the night
of the accident,
before and after.

That's what the lawyer says
he needs.

I know.
I'm just not finished yet.
I'll do it.

I... I found
all the medical bills
and the rehab report.

I could deal with this, Helen,

cancel my afternoon
appointments.

No, we're doing this
together.

I'm not letting you
take it all on yourself.

Oh, I found this.

That's a card
that Andy sent to Kevin,
apologizing.

Do we get another one
because he's suing us now?

Can I see it?

How long
have you been there?

I don't think
you ever showed me this.

I thought I had.

I haven't seen these, either.

Why should you?

Why should any of us
have to look
at all of this again?

Joan,
I already claimed
the last Pop-Tart.

JOAN: Not unless
you put your name on it,
freakazoid!

Look.

"L-U-K-E."

Clearly displayed
in red permanent marker.

Great. Now what am I
supposed to eat?

Can we please just have
one civilized morning
in this house?

Do we wanna know
why you're...

ALL: No!

So, have you and Adam
made up?

Yeah.

Because you, like,
totally humiliated him
at the party.

Yes, I know,
and we talked about it,
and I apologized.

And he's okay?

Because you took
quite the emotional dump
on him at that party.

Okay, Grace, I get the point.

Just stay away from parties
from now on.

My dad found out
that Judith ended up
in the hospital.

Now he thinks
I'm being tainted
by the heathen shiksa.

She just felt out of place
and sort of anxious,

so she acted out a little.

Getting your nose pierced
is acting out a little.

Almost dying in a puddle
of your own vomit
is a little darker than that.

But what do I know?
JUDITH: Hey, you guys!

She's just trying
to find her way.
She needs friends.

GRACE: Looks like
she made some new ones.
Man!

I'll catch you later.
I'm gonna go
run with scissors.

Hey. What are you doing here?

This is, like,
the super-loser hangout.

Hey, it's the only
smoking section.

Mmm.

So, tonight.

Perfect girls' night out.
Go to the mall,

sneak into all the crap movies
for free.

Judith,
we're supposed to study
for physics.

Oh, what's physics compared
to Catherine Zeta-Jones

25 pounds overweight
from the baby?

Hey, come on.
We're goin' for, uh,
Big Gulps.

You want a Big Gulp?
'Cause we're goin' for 'em.

Totally. You coming?

Wait, wait, wait.
Judith, we have class.

You've skipped, like,
three days already.

You wanna get booted
out of another school?

Hey, I was in the hospital,
remember?

That's an excuse
that should work
for a few more days.

Come on. Everyone's been
asking about you.

That why Grace took off
like the Road Runner?

Oh, don't be so sad, Joanith.
I'm fine.

Take notes for me,
okay? Mwah!

GROUNDSKEEPER GOD:
Hey, girlie.

Uh, can you give me a hand
with this?

Uh, no offense,

but isn't that
kind of a random place
to be planting a tree?

Does seem out of place,
doesn't it?

Sort of like
you've been feeling.

Here we go again.

Sometimes when you're lost,

it's an opportunity
to cultivate a new place
for yourself.

JOAN: And this is supposed
to inspire me?

The Charlie Brown
Christmas tree of metaphors?

You want me
to take care of this?

Remember when you used to
tell me to go try out
for the cheerleaders?

What happened to that?

If it's an assignment
you want, you better get
to physics.

You're late.

(SCHOOL BELL RINGING)
Whose fault is that?

♪ What if God was one of us?

♪ Just a slob like one of us

♪ Just a stranger on the bus

♪ Trying to make his way home

♪ Just trying
to make his way home

♪ Just trying
to make his way home

♪ Just trying
to make his way home ♪

but I can't seem to do it.

Mmm-hmm. I hear you.

I was wondering
if you had any thoughts,

anything that could help me
get through this.

Nope.
I don't think so.

You're a nun.

Former nun.

And I never went in
for the platitudes.

I mean,
I could tell you to surf.

That's what I do
when I get all knotted up.

I don't surf.

Hmm, bummer.

Because when you're out there,
things make sense.

You know, you see a wave
coming towards you,

one you know
that could kill you,

but if you hit it right,
it supports you.

It saves you.

So you're saying
the letter's like a wave,

and if I write it right...

Platitude. Platitude.

I just thought
I was done with all this.

Look, I wish I had a way
to make things easier for you,

but the struggle is kind of
the whole point, isn't it?

That and the faith
that it will somehow
be worth it.

Yeah.

And trying
to quit smoking.

Or trying to meet a guy
who doesn't mind
a woman who smokes

and was a nun.

I'll keep my eyes open.

Yeah, that'd be good.

LISCHAK: The mere act
of measuring the position
of a particle

changes its momentum,

which, in turn, demonstrates
the indeterminate nature
of photons.

Miss Girardi.

Sorry I'm late.
I had a-a thing.

And I, in turn,
was marking a late "thing"
in my book.

Coincidence?

Or one event
determined by separate
indeterminate actions?

Hmm.

Am I supposed to know
what she said?

Oh, I wasn't listening.
Um, I was looking at you.

LISCHAK: Thomas Young.
Genius.

Hey. Where's my Judith?

Freidman,
the kiss meant nothing.
She was drunk.

(LAUGHING)

You sweet, naive child.

(TAP DANCING)

LISCHAK: Okay, grasshoppers.

Before we delve
into the deepest mysteries
of quantum physics,

I want to investigate
the concept of indeterminacy
on our own turf,

as it were.

Who has a working def
of indeterminacy for me?

Uh, Lukey G.?

Indeterminacy states that
the change of a particle, X,

is unknown until
the outcome is, uh, observed

over a certain
period of time, T.

Showoff.
Yes! So,

fire your neurons and think
of something indeterminate
in your own environment, X,

and record changes to X

over a certain
period of time, T.

Ideas?

Uh, mixmaster Freidman!

(WHISPERING)
"Will I ever get laid?"

Compare the recent discoveries
of the Mars Rover

with our current assumptions
of the Earth's environment?

That and, "Will I ever
get laid?"

(LAUGHS)
LISCHAK: Okay. Yes.

Now, how about an assignment
that deals with
your own environment?

Alternate Girardi.

How are you going to handle
the assignment?

Huh?

Assignment?

Uh, well-well, we could...

We could plant a garden

in the rankest part
of the school,

and then, um,

try to determine
whether or not

it-it could be a garden.

Interesting.

Clarify your premise
and you might
have something.

Next.

(SIGHING)
What did I just say?

(PEOPLE MURMURING)

You think she's gonna wake up
and say she forgives you?

Excuse me?

Arcadia's finest, right?

Oh, the blood
is on your hands.

You're just gonna
have to live with it.

We're sorry for your loss.

Oh, don't insult me
or the memory of my aunt.

You used her.

She came to us because
she saw an innocent boy
gunned down.

She wanted us
to catch the men who did it,

and, thanks to her, we did.

Oh, and then you made sure

that her house
went up in flames
right after, didn't you?

We offered her protection.
She wouldn't take it.

You're the ones
that she's afraid of,

like all of us are.

No one's gonna do anything
to you.

No?

Well,
what if I started talking

about the gangbangers
that you shield

and all the drugs
that you bastards steal?

Oh, you'd be okay
with that, huh?

I, uh, think we should leave.

We're very sorry.
We didn't mean to upset you.

(EXHALES DEEPLY)

You are all gonna lose
that summer flab.

Faster! Spine straight.
Chest forward.

Yeah, that'll happen.

So we're all on board
for the project?

I'm gonna do a paper.

No insecticide.

But we're a study group.
We do things together.

So why did you have to pick
starting a farm?

A garden,
and I didn't pick it.

Miss Lischak gave us
an assignment.

Look, it'll be fun.
Judith will help.
Oh, right.

Jane, she hasn't shown up
for class in days.

She's still
not feeling good.

Put on the brakes
and run in place!

COACH: Knees high!

Higher!

(ALL PANTING)

I say we go
with the Mars Rover idea.

I'll scope out
the NASA Web page...

Actually, I-I think
I'm gonna pass
on this one.

If you're concerned
that working with me
will be awkward,

I can assure you
I've moved on.

And on and on.

It's not that.

It's just, uh, you know,
Grace wanted some help
on her project.

I don't need your help,
pencil neck. Never will.

COACH: And another lap.

How about we meet tonight?
I'll get Judith to come.

I have work.
How about right after school?

I have work.
COACH: Move it, soldiers!

How about we just do a paper,
like Grace said?

No! We have to cultivate
something because...

Please?

I'll never ask
for another thing
as long as I live.

I know that's a lie,
but please?

Okay. Okay. Okay.

Drop to the floor!

Twenty sit-ups.
(ALL GROANING)

Grab your partner's
ankles.

BOY: You okay?

Grab, Mr. Girardi.

Look, I just thought
we could work
on the assignment together.

I mean,
we did it last year

and, uh, it wasn't a problem.

Are you fondling my ankles?

Yes, I am.

Look, if you can't handle
the terms,

the terms
which you agreed to,

then maybe
you can't handle me.

Polk, resume the position.

Polk!
Your citizenship grade
is taking a nosedive.

Hey, you know,
Federico said
he'd cover my shift

so we can work on
the project all night.

Really?
Yeah.

Oh, thank you.

Perhaps you'd like me
to dim the lights.

Oh, I'm sorry.
I was just happy.

Oh. And here I thought
you were working.

I was. Am. I...
Gardening for Dummies.

Manic for Mulch.
Both very good.

Proust is very good.

Try not to mate
during business hours,
Miss Girardi.

(SIGHING IN ANNOYANCE)

You know,

it's been weird being back.

It's like
we had this groove before,
and then it was gone,

but working on
this project together,
I feel it again.

Don't you?
Yeah.

What project?

Hey. Did you really
skip the whole day?

Oh, Danny got
his parents' convertible.
We went for a drive.

Well, Danny's been
in the tenth grade
for three years.

He was kind of a moron.

JOAN: Well, thank God
you are back.

If you get kicked out
of school again...

Not gonna happen.
So what's the project?

Oh. Lischak gave this
really crazy assignment.

You have to try to determine
something indeterminate or...

Well, you don't really
determine.

Ultimately,
it has something to do
with subatomic particles.

But it has to be in
your own environment, so...
Yeah.

I think I'm glad
I went for the Big Gulp.

Well, um, anyway,

we're-we're
planting a garden
out by the bleachers

to determine whether or not
it will survive,

and you'll be working
with us.

I'm not working
on some fifth grade
science garden.

JOAN: No,
it's a good project, though.

Lischak even said so.
And we're all sharing
the grade.

Why don't you let me worry
about my own grade, Mom?

She's just trying to help.

I'm not some pity case.

Fine. Fail physics.
Adam.

No, look, why do you let her
treat you like this?

Like what?
How am I treating her?

Maybe you should just
stay out of it.

Sure. Happy to.

Adam, wait.

Nervous someone else
is treading
on your territory?

Okay, shut up.
Both of you, stop.

I'm just gonna go
work on my own thing, okay?
See you later.

Adam. Adam! Wait.

(DOOR OPENING)

(SIGHING)
So how about the mall?

I can't. I gotta work.

You think you'll survive
out here all alone?

You're pathetic.

You're me.

It needs water.

And you should
turn the soil.

(SCOFFS) Why don't you,
if you're so concerned,
foghead?

It's your assignment, Joan.
You asked for it.

This is a new look for you.

Yeah.

I mean, the jeans
are really comfy.

Look, I thought
I'd have some help here.

Yeah. I know where
you're coming from.

It's like, uh,

everybody has
something better to do

until they're on a plane,
and then they're all over me.

That means something, right?

Totally.

It means you should
pick up that rake
and that hoe

and start turning this dirt.

Oh. You're leaving me, too?

(SIGHS) That's a fine way
to run a universe.

Hey.
Oh! I'd... I'd stay away.

I'm kind of caked
with fertilizer,

and we all know
what that's made of.

Oh, I don't care.

Uh, you missed lunch,
so I got you a sandwich.

Thank you.

Listen, I-I'm sorry, Jane.

I know
you and Judith are friends,

and I don't wanna fight
with her,

but she's always
ragging on me.

Yeah. She kind of
blew me off, too.

I-I just had
this whole fantasy
how we would all come together

and be, like, this one person
with a lot of heads.

That sounds kind of freaky,
but you know what I meant.

I'm sorry.
I-I really can't handle
working with her.

Yeah, I guess trying
to drag everyone into this
was obviously ultra-dumb.

So you're not mad?

Adam, I don't even understand
why I'm doing this garden.

How can I be mad at you
if you're not into it?

It feels like
there's so much stuff
coming at us lately,

like we're
the indeterminate thing.

Maybe we should be
our physics project.

I planted something
called impatiens,

but they take
as long as everything else.

(LAUGHING)

Funny, huh?
Yeah.

Ease up, man.

Our medical plan
doesn't cover
stomach stapling.

I'm peckish.

Happens whenever
a grieving family member
accuses me of murder.

Yeah.
I'll get back to you.

First off, let me say,

we go up against
the blue wall,
we better have a solid case.

The shooters
we caught last week...

The ones that hit
the 8-year-old kid?
Yeah.

The only witness against them
dies in a fire.

Convenient.
They're drug dealers.

Their friends
wanted to send a message.

Roasting some woman
isn't exactly a moral
quandary for them.

Which is why
you should see this.

From Mary Wallace's house.

Arson says the fire started
in the basement.

Probably a box
close to the heater.

Now, you came
from the arson squad.
You buy it?

There seems to be
a line of accelerant here.

Runs from the back window.

Meaning?
A pro.

Gangbanger's not gonna
waste time hiding
his tracks like this.

The two shooters told us
to look to our own.

We got the same song
at the funeral.

Oh, yeah?

And I thought we finally
cleaned this place up.

Funny, Roy.
Isn't this where we met?

Outside looking in.

Man, you smell
like a litter box.

(ALL LAUGHING)

(SIGHING)

The ground is soft.
I have a happy butt.

What are you doing?
Get off my plants,
you freak!

(ALL LAUGHING)

Hey. You wanna
rein in the animals?

(ALL LAUGHING)

Why are you doing this?

Why are you doing that?

Because it's my
assignment, okay?

And I know you don't wanna
have anything to do with it,

but do you have to try
to impress your new friends

by being an even bigger twerp
than they are?

Your friends are so great?

Judging me
for getting a little loaded?
Like they're so perfect.

Grace saved your life, Judith.

Doctors exaggerate.
I could have slept it off.

I was in the hospital with you
for two days.

Aren't you great?

Mmm!

(STAMMERING) Okay.
Look, I know
you're embarrassed, okay?

I get it.

Let it go.

Everybody will be willing
to get past this...

Now I'm supposed
to take advice
from some nut job

who sees people
who aren't even there?

(SIGHING)

Who wants Big Gulps?
I'm buying.

DANNY: Wait. Me.

Whoa! I love Big Gulps.

Hey. Hey!

(GASPING)

Freak.

Before you get mad...
What are you doing?

I need to talk.

Girardi, waiting outside
the girls' bathroom
is a little stalky.

No.

You said that
if I can't handle your terms,
maybe I can't handle you.

Well, Grace, I think it's you
who can't handle me.

Don't push it, Girardi,
unless you want
your make-out time cut.

This is more than just
about making out, Grace.

I mean, I like the making out.
Don't get me wrong.

But we have
a relationship here

whether you like it or not.

There are things
you don't know about me,
okay?

Exactly!

And it's that
very indeterminacy
that attracts me.

I-I don't know
why you're so scared by it.

This is about my privacy
and you not respecting it,
that's all.

Okay. Fine.
Then be private and alone,

because clearly
that's what you want.

(SIGHS)

(DOOR OPENING)

KEVIN: Hey.

I'm getting a byline
tomorrow.

I wrote a piece
about this guy

who's been ticketed
for jaywalking
243 times.

Why'd you do it, Kevin?

I was just fascinated
by the man's love of traffic.

I went to
the lawyer's office today.

He told me
you'd been to see Andy.

Did you think
we wouldn't find out?

(SIGHING)

I didn't know
how to tell you.

You tried to talk Andy
into dropping the case.

That could be construed
as an admission of guilt.

That's ridiculous.
I just wanted to see
how he was,

if he really needed help.

That's not how
his attorney saw it.

He doubled the damages
to $1 million.

How can they do that?
They just can.

Look, I'm sorry,
but this whole mess
is going on around me,

and you two
won't tell me anything...

Because we're taking care
of it.

You've been through enough.

Please, just stay out of it.

That kid could take
everything we have.

Sure.

I'm sorry.

(WHEELCHAIR LIFT BUZZING)

This can be recycled.

Do I have to
make a new earth
every seven days?

So many people pray
to see you.

If only they knew.

Now, why haven't you
finished your assignment?

Uh, I did. I planted stuff.
It got stepped on.

My friends deserted me
in the process.

As usual.
Thank you very much.

Well, isn't that
part of the assignment?

To see
how the process unfolds?

You have until Friday.
Finish what you started.

Are you telling me

that I can get
all those flowers
to grow by Friday?

No. You can't force
a bud to open
or a plant to grow faster.

Growth is a process.

Just be part
of the process, Joan.

WILL: Even if it was
locked out,

we still could know
who's behind it.

CARLISLE: Sure, maybe.
But it's still
one hell of an alibi.

He's all yours.

So nice catching up
with an old friend.

You know him?

Little gift from his crew.

Amazing what you can do
with a Phillips screwdriver.

DeShawn gets a cut
of half the crank
from 14th Street

all the way
on up to the Hudson.

So why haven't you
brought him in before?

His stash always
gets moved around,

like-like he's got someone
watching out for him.

Good luck
on finding out who.

When did he talk
to Roebuck?

Never, as far as I know.

DeShawn knows him.

Wanted to know
if the Chief was gonna be
in on the interrogation.

Well, Roebuck's the boss.
Probably afraid of him.

Yeah.
I'm sure that's it.

(CHATTERING)

Ah, Mom. Hey.
I may not make it home
for dinner.

Um, I need to do
some work on the garden,
so...

Oh, sure. How's it going?

Uh, kind of terrible,

but thanks for asking.

Joan.

The night of the accident,
Kevin's accident,

what do you remember?

One thing.

Now?

No. Sorry. It's okay.

I was, um,
watching The Nutty Professor
for the millionth time.

Um...

And I heard you scream.

Are you okay, Mom?

Sure.

I was just curious.
The lawsuit.

I was just curious.

Thanks, honey.

Sure.

Inside the building.
That's a big change for you.

Look, I just wanna say
I'm sorry.

I just don't get it,
Judith.

We're not at camp anymore,
okay?

There, it was, like, perfect.

It was just us. Joanith.

But here,
there's Adam and Grace
and it's different.

No.
It doesn't have to be.

It already is.
I was here less than a week

and I totally blew it
with you and your friends.

Okay. So you dump us
because of one stupid night?

Look, I've been
in four high schools
in two years.

You'd think I would have kept
a few friends

through all of that,
wouldn't you?

Even my shrink parents
have written me off.

I'm like some
failed lab experiment to them.

Judith, I don't care
about what happened
in the past, okay?

Here, right now,
we're friends.

So if I mess up again,
that's cool?

What?
And the next time?

What-What are you
even talking about?

I'll be the one you cut loose,
won't I?

You'll still have
your friends,

but I'll be alone,
and I don't do alone well.

Judith, you're all freaked out
about something
that may never even happen.

I gotta get to class.

Judith. Hey.

I get this sense
you've been avoiding me.

Now, don't be afraid
of the feelings we have
for each other.

They're what make us us,
right?

Hey. I'm Lilly,
your mom's
confirmation coach.

We got a thing at 4:00.
I'm early.

She'll be home soon.
I'm Kevin.

Figured.

I read your project about
that, uh, jaywalking guy.

Very cool.
Thanks.

Have you heard about
the, uh, guy who's trying
to eat a bicycle?

Uh-uh.

Oh. You should
check it out.

Do you want
anything to drink
while you're waiting?

Oh, great. I'm parched.

(SIGHS)
Uh, so you really surf?

Oh, yeah. Totally.
You should try it.

I'm sure they got
some kind of rig
they could strap you in.

(LILLY SIGHS)

So, uh, how's
your lawsuit coming?

Okay, I guess.

Am I being too nosy?
Can I finish
the cran-apple?

Sure.

Sure about the nosy
or the cran-apple?

The cran-apple.
Oh.

But, um, I can't really
tell you much
about the lawsuit.

My parents are handling it.

They don't tell me much.

Wait a minute.

You don't know anything
about a lawsuit
in which you're named,

even though the accident
was, just a guess,

the most important event
of your life?

Okay, now you're being
too nosy.

No, it's just...
I mean, you're 20
and a reporter.

How do you turn off
interest in your own life?

You're right.
None of my business.

Oh, hi. You met?

Uh-huh.
Yeah.

Great. I'll get my books
and we can start.

Okay.

It's nice to meet you.

(SKILLET PLAYING
YOU ARE MY HOPE)

I've thought about it,

and I do wanna work
within your terms.

Well, you shouldn't.
It's totally unfair.

See, that's the thing.
I-I don't think they are.

I mean, basically,
I've been asking
for a total regime change

in your public
and personal life.
But you know what?

I looked up every
major political revolution
in the last hundred years,

and not even
the most violent ones
were sudden.

You know, they built up
over years of dissatisfaction
and unrest.

Did you make a special effort
not to use a science metaphor?

I'm trying
to expand my range.

So, basically,
you're saying what?

(SIGHING)

I'm willing to wait.

Hoping that
the, uh, revolution

will gain some small foothold
in the outer regions,

such as, uh,
maybe an occasional exchange
of words in public.

What's this?

Well, even warring tribes
have been known
to make peace offerings

in, uh, you know, recognition
of their commonalities.

Did you just make that up?
Yes.

It's a... It's a seedling
for a sunflower.

It's hard to believe
it can grow
over eight feet tall.

I stole it from Joan.

(SCOFFS) I can't believe
she's still at it.

You know, her hypothesis
actually has promise.

I mean, the-the idea
of a community garden

can be tied
to some key aspects
of quantum theory.

Lay it on me.
I can't get through my paper.

It's too much research.

Hey, we're having
a conversation.

Not anymore.
Just lay it on me.

Well, um,

according to, uh,
one of the principles
of indeterminacy,

you know, there's a certain
level of uncertainty
to every equation.

Now, with the community
garden, for instance...

♪ You are my hope ♪

Why are you
planting cabbage?

Isn't it already,
like, cabbage?

Shut up!

Yeah? Shut you up.

(LAUGHING) All right.

Makin' soup?

Hey. Apparently, they flower.
What are you doing here?

Boy Wonder figured out
you're not brain-dead.

Apparently,
dirt can equal physics.

So we can get
some work done.

You so don't wanna
go there, dude.

You see,
if we posit that your
indeterminate element

is the unpredictable level
of resistance...

Stifle it, Einstein.

Just pick up
all this garbage
and pile it over there.

Hey, Grace?

Thank you.

I'm doing this for me, dude.

I know.

Want a cigarette?

No, thanks.

Big fan of the lungs.

Okay.

You know,
usually I'm the only one
around here this early,

so I won't have to endure
the breakfast inquisition
with the shrinks.

You?

Uh, I just wanted
to see Joan's garden.

You could see it later
with her.

Be weird if she were here.

You know, we always work
on these kind of projects
together.

This is the first time
that we're not.

Is it because of me?

Uh, no. It's, uh...

Yeah. Sorry.

I used to plant stuff
with my dad.

Then he got busy,
got a gardener,

and we stopped doing
that kind of thing.

Guess that's why I freaked
when Joan said she wanted
to do the garden, huh?

Think I'm gonna
clean up some more.
Do you wanna help?

Nah.

You get anything
from DeShawn Wallace?

Apparently he lost
his power of speech.

With the witness dead,
he knew he was going home.

So he didn't mention anyone
in the department?

No.

You know Duncan and Simmons?

Plainclothes,
live on the street.
Yeah.

They were responsible
for two of the biggest
coke busts this year.

Right.

I brought them over
from Arson.

What are you saying,
Roy?

Their files.

See if you find anything.

Who the hell
are we investigating?

Hey.
Hi.

I, uh...
I made you a tree
for the garden.

Are those cigarette butts?

Yeah. I-I dipped them
in leftover slushies.

(LAUGHS)
The sugar
makes killer glue.

Cool.
Oh!

It's a gnome.

They, uh...
They live under the earth
and guard the buried treasure.

(LAUGHS)
This is his fire spear.

I-I had a serious
Dungeons and Dragons habit.

I'm better now.
Thank you.

(ALL EXCLAIMING)

Get a room, guys!

Okay.
Uh, I have mapped out
a planting plan,

uh, based on
the arc of the sun

and hours of daylight
last fall.

Okay, Luke,
don't-don't get all sweaty.

All we're going for
is "not dead."

"Despite the team leader's
nonexistent expectations,

"the existing momentum
propels the project forward."

What are the yellow thingies?

They're mums.

They bloom in the fall,
attract the bees,

the bees pollinate
the non-flowering shrubs,

which keep aphids
from eating other plants.

What?

You researched all that?

One episode of one show on
the Home and Garden Channel.

Don't make me regret this.

Okay.

And we found a witness

who saw Andy
yelling at Kevin
during his visit.

I brought up
the act as hostile
and threatening,

and their attorney
agreed to withdraw
their request

for an increase
in damages.

Thanks, Tom.

Now, we're gonna have to get
another toxicologist

to analyze Andy's
blood alcohol report.

It's not cheap, but...

Hey, Kevin.
Hey, Mr. Murphy.

You okay, honey?

Uh, no, Mom, I'm not.

If you'd like to be alone,
I...
KEVIN: No.

I'm tired of being alone.

I wanna be a part of this.

We'll talk about this
at home, Kevin.

That's the problem, Dad.
We won't talk about it.

You need
my statement, right?
We're still in discovery?

I-I'm sorry, Tom.
I didn't know...

Will, we're gonna
need his statement
sooner or later.

I'm-I'm just not sure
he's ready for this.

I'm not ready?

Have you done
your statement yet, Mom?

Kevin.

I'm trying to put
my thoughts in order.

No, you're...
You're afraid of them.

And so are you, Dad.

You think if I'm not here
to go over all the details,

it'll be easier,
like it happened
to someone else.

But it's never gonna
be easier.

It's gonna suck
every time we think
about it, so...

(KEVIN SIGHS)

I'm sorry.
That's just the way it is.

I don't want you
to go through it again.

But I have to.

Don't take this away from me.

I've lost enough.

It's still
kind of hazy for me.

Um...

Andy didn't know
how fast he was going.

And I didn't wanna show
how s-scared I was.

Uh...

There was music playing
in the hospital.

Some radio someplace.

Bach, I think. I...

It was so out of place.

Andy

(SIGHING)

was leaving with his father.

They rushed past me.

He couldn't look at me.

And then I heard
all those people
working on you

behind the curtain,
frantic.

And your sneakers,

the new ones
I had just bought,

in shreds

because they cut them
off your feet,

(SOBBING) lying in the blood
on the floor.

(HELEN SNIFFLING)

Indeterminacy,
my warriors.

Who will catch a cold?

Who will stumble and fall
along the dusty path?

And will
the horticultural efforts
of Team Girardi

survive the wasteland
of poor soil
and D students?

Can you expand?

Read. Remember,
it's not just your grade.

"We posit..." Posit?

Yes, posit.

(CLEARS THROAT)

"We posit that no one behaves

"according to
predetermined assumptions.

"Humanity and beauty
have the potential to coexist

"where the obstacles
are the most challenging.

"We offer our garden
as an inquiry
into the nature of hope,

"the greatest indeterminacy
of all."

Poetic,
as all great science
truly is.

(ENGINE RUMBLING)

Oh, no.

Bulldozers were not
a part of my calculation.

JOAN: Judith!
Judith, watch out!

(BRAKES SQUEALING)

A heroine goddess.
That's my girl.

The ultimate indeterminate.

Judith!

Hey! Stand aside,
young lady.

LISCHAK: Excuse me.

This garden is
an AP physics project.

Oh, how charming.
But we're putting in
new bleachers.

Can't it be spared
the final deathblow

until our research
is complete?

Lady, I got a union employee,
hourly pay.

It's out of my hands.

Everybody, see the garden?

It's lovely.
It's a lovely garden.

Now move.

ALL: (CHANTING)
Judith! Judith! Judith!

(ALL CHEERING)

Hey, I'm sorry.

Yeah.

I'll be right back.

Freidman likey.

It was a cool garden, Joan.

And I loved the fire spear.

Is she gonna be okay?

She was planting crocuses
and tulips.

It doesn't matter
if the ground gets bulldozed,

'cause they'll still come up
in the spring.

She knew that.

So, what I was growing...

Grew.
