by my boy's favorite player on his birthday.

And this nutjob's claiming he had a divine right to it.

No, it landed in seat 24. That's my wife's seat.

He's lying. Nobody's in the seat!

That's because she's in an urn over my fireplace.

And this ball is gonna go right next to her.

All these years we've been coming here,

she never got a ball.

Alright? So let go.

- No, you let go. - [Phil] Let go!

- Alright, listen. - [David] No!

It sounds like you both have

really good reasons to want the ball,

but neither is worth going to jail.

I see the police are on their way from right field.

So, there's still time to resolve this like adults.

Well, I don't care. Fair is fair.

[David] Come on, what's fair is it belongs to my son.

- [Max] Dad, just let go. - [grunting]

- [Phil screams] - [crowd gasps]

Oh...

[Emma gasps]

[Phil groaning]

Think you better call an ambulance.

Yep, already on it.

- [siren wailing] - [Phil groaning]

[microwave whirring]

[Mark] [on voicemail] Hey, it's Mark.

Sorry you missed me. I'm the worst.

- [microwave beeps] - [Cammie] Hey, babe.

You would never believe the call I took today.

This guy got in a fight with a little boy's dad

over a home run ball at a game.

I tried to talk him out of it, but he wouldn't let go.

Anyway, he fell over the wall and he broke his tailbone,

but it could have been so much worse.

He could have died.

[♪ somber music playing]

[sighs deeply]

If I don't start letting go, what's gonna become of me?

[♪ somber music continues]

[exhales deeply]

[zipper buzzes]

[Ryan] Hey, dude.

Hey.

Night, Ry.

You, uh, wanna grab a beer?

Nah, I think I'm just gonna head home.

You're good though, yeah?

You look a little... blue, Blue.

I'm fine.

Just remind me to always listen to my big brother.

Can do.

Hey, B.

Hi, Taylor.

I love the fit.

Thank you.

Yours is, uh, nice too.

"Nice."

What every girl aspires to.

Well, good night.

[softly] Good night.

Uh, did I do something to offend you?

What? No.

Okay, then what's with the chilly vibes?

[exhales sharply]

Look, you didn't do anything wrong.

I have a confession,

but I want you to know if it makes you feel in any way unsafe,

we can reach out to an FD sensitivity specialist.

[laughs] I have done open mics at Tootsies.

There's nothing that you could do to make me feel unsafe.

- [exhales heavily] - What's up?

This is awkward.

But I've developed feelings for you.

- Oh. - Feelings beyond a professional capacity.

Oh, boy.

You've just been so kind to me

since the moment I got here.

Having my back. Showing me the ropes.

You are so talented and funny and beautiful.

Boy, you gonna make me blush.

Um, you do know it's a terrible idea

to woo your coworkers?

I know.

And I'm not wooing.

- [chuckles] - Ry and Rox warned me already,

it's a quick way to land in HR jail.

That mixed signals and misunderstandings

happen all the time in the workplace.

They do happen. Yes.

And that's exactly what happened to me.

But I want you to know that this is the last time

you'll hear of it.

Because after this moment,

I'm gonna squash those feelings.

Okay.

Well, thank you for your honesty.

Um... that took a lot of guts.

- Thank you for saying that. - Mm-hmm.

And thank you for being so classy about it.

I feel so much better.

And for the record, I'd still love to go to the Bluebird

with you, as friends.

If you want. Yeah.

I do. We should totally invite Jalen.

We can. Mm...

I don't know if he'd want to, though.

He doesn't like live music?

He does.

Just, he likes to spend his nights off

with his boyfriend.

- His boyfriend? - Mm-hmm.

I thought y'all were together.

Oh, we live together.

Rent in Nashville's crazy expensive,

but he's like my brother.

Oh, my God.

I really stepped in it this time, didn't I?

You did.

But... it's okay.

I feel the same way about you.

So, you know, let it rip.

Wait. What?

[Taylor] Good night, B.

I thought you said it was a bad idea to date coworkers.

[Taylor] A terrible one.

- What have you done? - [door closes]

You know, I may have to take you up on that beer after all.

- [Blue sighs] - [Ryan chuckles]

[knock on door]

Cap, I didn't realize you were still here.

Yeah, come on in.

I'm, uh, just finishing up the last report

on individual training hours.

Blue really racked 'em up this quarter. I...

[chuckles] He may have set a new department record.

I'm not surprised.

And with that signature...

I'm officially free of paperwork for the next three months.

Congratulations.

- [exhales deeply] - Hope you're going somewhere fun to celebrate.

Just a nice whiskey at home. Put my feet up.

[Roxie] Sounds like heaven.

Oh, uh, this came for you.

Probie must have mixed it in with the mail.

How much snail mail do we get that he could have mixed it up?

I think he's been in a bit of a fog lately.

Uh-huh. Well, thanks, Rox.

Why don't you get out of here, alright?

Have a good--

[Don breathing heavily]

[Roxie] Cap...

You okay?

[♪ tense music playing]

I'm good.

[heartbeat thumping]

- Oh... - [Roxie] Cap?

Cap!

[monitor beeping, muffled]

Easy, Cap. Easy.

- You're okay. - [Don exhales deeply]

Well, this is embarrassing.

[Roxie] There's nothing to feel bad about.

[Don] Yeah, says the person not lying on the floor.

I'm assuming no cardiac event?

[Roxie] No. Your wavelengths were normal,

but your heart rate was off the charts.

Well, it looks okay now.

- But did anyone-- - I closed the door.

Thank you.

We'll keep this in-house, but...

- [Don grunts] - ...I have to ask.

Do you have any history of panic attacks?

[sighs]

Only one.

♪

Cap...

by any chance does that letter have any connection

to the person who called you the other day?

When your hands started to shake?

Yes.

It's from the man who killed my family.

Do you know what he wants?

He wants to talk.

I've been with a lot of women in the 27 years

since Betty passed,

but to this day,

not one of them could hold a candle to my Betty.

The things she could do.

- [laughter] - Okay. Alright.

We get it, Archie. She was limber.

[Turner] Thanks, Arch, for that heartfelt

and very expansive account.

[door opens]

Cammie.

Hi.

[Turner] It's so good to see you.

- Sorry we're late. - No, it's alright. It's alright.

[Cammie] Uh, this is my sister-in-law, Blythe.

- Hello. - [Turner] Welcome.

Welcome. Um... Yeah, please.

Please.

Come on in.

- I knew he was gonna be cute. - Shut up.

Okay.

Who wants to share next?

Uh...

I'll go.

- Really? Okay. - [Cammie] Hmm.

You wanna tell us what brought you back here tonight?

Well, I was sitting down to dinner,

leaving my husband a voicemail.

I do that.

Well, at least I used to.

Um... I canceled his service tonight after three years.

I'm so proud of you.

Wow.

What gave you the courage to do that?

Uh, let's call it a nudge from a friend.

[soft laughter]

Mark wouldn't want me sitting home alone,

talking to myself

- in an empty house. - [Blythe] Mm-mm.

And, um...

just because he's not here to listen anymore

doesn't mean that... others aren't ready to.

[Turner] That's right. That's what we do.

We're here for you, baby.

Nick, last time you asked me

what I missed doing most with my husband...

Oh. We remember.

[laughter]

And it wasn't that.

Although I must say, that was always outstanding.

Oh, Lordy. Okay.

That's too much information, Cammie.

- Uh, he was her brother. - Yes.

[laughter]

Anyway, what I miss doing most by far...

is laughing.

And, um...

So I wanted to tell you my favorite story about him.

- Is this the Peabody? - [Cammie] Yeah. [laughs]

Okay, so we went to the Peabody Hotel for our babymoon.

I was up to here with our first.

And, you know how they have all those ducks in the lobby?

Well, they must have escaped

because we were outside the first night

and we see this mama duckling

trying to get her little ducklings across the road.

But cars are just whizzing past. Nobody sees 'em.

So, Mark goes running out into the middle of traffic,

waving his arms and trying to get 'em to stop.

I swear, I thought I was gonna be a widow that very night.

[laughter]

But Mark being Mark, he pulls it off.

Just as he gets the last little duckling across,

here comes the mama duck waddling up to him,

and he just leans down.

And Mark had a really special connection with animals...

- [Blythe] Mm-hmm. - ...you know.

And he leans down and he gazes into her eyes

and he says, "You're welcome, Mama."

And it was really beautiful. It was beautiful.

[laughter]

Until she just bit him

right where the sun don't shine.

[laughter continues]

Just fast as a cobra.

Mark just goes down.

[laughter continues]

And... and I go to help him up,

and he just, he starts saying, "Oh, thank God, thank God."

I'm like, "What? What thank God? Thank God for what?"

And he goes, "Thank God you're already pregnant."

[laughter]
