Original subtitles

LEON: Previously onAlmost Family...

Did you even like me?

Or were you just in it for the drugs?

I don't have a problem with drugs.

I have a problem with you!

You've alienated everyone else in your life.

You always have.

I just want to be there for you.

EDIE: I thought it was just a one-time thing,

but it is more than that.

-Do you love her? -Yes.

Just go.

-It's time for you to get help. -I can't go in there.

If I go in there, they're gonna make me talk about everything,

and I can't talk about it.

You are the strongest person I've ever met.

EDIE: And we're gonna be right here

when you get out.

Something else came up in the results

that is unexpected.

Leon Bechley is not your biological father.

-Julia.

-Julia.

Julia.

-Hey.

-Are you okay?

-Yeah. -Just another nightmare?

Yeah.

That's weeks now.

Maybe you need to finally pull the trigger

and talk to your dad, you know, stop avoiding him.

Or maybe I never pull the trigger.

Yeah, that's a courageous choice.

You know, when I was little,

there was this man who worked at the bodega

next to my building.

And I would go in there,

and I would point to his--his red hair,

'cause he had hair just like mine.

And maybe he was my biological father.

The bodega man?

Or my mom was an early supporter

of Bill Clinton, and I've always leaned left.

He's leaned towards anything that's ever moved,

and so maybe, I don't know,

if she was in Arkansas in the late '80s--

Then former president Bill Clinton

could be your father.

I'm just saying, can't rule it out.

Uh, as much as I enjoy this fun little game of yours,

I'm never gonna be able to give you that answer.

There's only one man who can do that.

Just think of talking to Leon

as starting a new chapter.

Speaking of...

I've been thinking...

I want to introduce you to my kids.

-Really? -I mean, if you're ready.

Yeah, I-I-I would love to meet your kids.

-I mean, I'm--I'm ready,

if you're ready-- if they're ready,

because that's-- 'cause this is

a big deal to me--to you-- to us.

Are we ready?

We're ready.

-Morning.

Enzo will be up soon.

Okay, okay, I'm going.

All right. One more minute.

By the way, 15 years is as low as I'll go.

All right, Bechley.

How are negotiations going?

Well, we haven't even started--

Actually, we have a plea offer.

-CHAD: And? -15 years, down from 25.

That's an offer?

I'll present it to Leon.

But he's not pleading guilty.

We all know this is headed to trial.

Come on, you're my power couple.

I shouldn't have to remind either of you.

You don't make partner taking lowball deals.

We are aware of that,

and we intend to do a lot better.

Yeah.

What the hell?

When did this offer roll in? What was that, pillow talk?

Because if you're trying to just wrap this up

so you can spend more time with your girlfriend--

I am obligated to present any offer.

I would never compromise Leon.

I am working for the best outcome for our client,

and you know it.

It's not just your career hanging in the balance here.

This affair that you're having, it compromises my career, too.

We could both get disbarred because of this.

That's not gonna happen.

I would never let that happen.

I'm sorry, okay?

I should have told you.

It's just hard keeping up the act for Chad sometimes.

Well, until this case is over, that's how it's gonna be.

That is the least you can do.

And it shouldn't be a problem,

because you are really good at pretending.

SINGER: ♪ Whoa, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh ♪

♪ Whoa, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh ♪

EDIE: Have you talked to her? How does she sound?

She just texted,

but she sounded good in the text.

So no matter what,

if we just stay supportive and positive,

that's what'll get her through this transition.

One day at a time. Progress, not perfection.

I read all the links you sent me.

-Team Roxy.

Julia?

Edie?

I got you.

-Roxy. -Don't do that.

-EDIE: It's not funny.

You should have seen your faces.

What'd you think, I was gonna let them lobotomize me?

Come on. All right, so what's new?

Spill the tea. Who's gay now?

What?

Oh, Julia has some news.

On the bright side, you didn't sleep with your brother.

Oh, trust me, that's the first place that I went.

You think I can get the word out?

I wouldn't stir the pot.

The worst part is that you guys aren't

really my sisters anymore.

Oh, come on, you're not getting rid of me that easy.

EDIE: That's what I keep telling her.

The sister ship has officially sailed.

Yeah, but, you know, genetically...

Screw genetics.

You kind of saved my life.

Yeah, and you kind of know

way too much about me to ever go back

to being just friends.

Hey, what? Really, my cereal?

Yeah. Did you know that sugar

lights up the same dopamine receptors in the brain

that drugs do?

Well, did you know you can have your room back?

-Oh. -I'm happy on the couch.

-You called it my room. -Yeah.

Of course it's your room.

I mean, it's my apartment, but it is your room.

-I'm so glad you're back. -Me too.

And don't worry about Leon, okay?

Just talk to him. You're still the OG.

I'm just afraid when I say it out loud to him,

it'll, you know, make it real.

Well, it is real.

Take it from me, you can only avoid reality so long.

Dad?

Julia! In here.

Oh, what a surprise and a nice one.

Been a while.

Yeah, sorry. I've been busy.

Oh--no, no, it's--yeah, I'm glad you're here.

Are you hungry? 'Cause I can make more.

No, I'm okay. Thanks.

Um, the hydrangeas came.

So we're good for Friday, yeah?

Yeah, yeah, we are. Thanks for doing that.

Sure.

I mean, do you want to do something else instead?

Oh, no, that'll be great.

All right. So what's going on?

Um, I have a patient file I need you to look at.

Okay, who's the patient?

I am.

Okay, uh...

Uh, is this related to the fertility workup?

Um, no--yes.

I'm actually not infertile. I'm fine.

Just read it.

Yeah, um...

This means that--

Yes, I-I-I know what it means.

You're not surprised?

No.

Um...

well, I-- how did you--when--

have you known?

Always?

Yes.

I-I hoped this day would never come.

Um...

So all--my whole life, my--all of the memories

that I have with you, you've known.

This is another secret. This is another lie.

What about the story you told me

about when I was born?

When Mom was in the hospital and you took care of me.

Did that happen? Is that--is that true?

Of course it is. This doesn't change that.

Well, then what happened? How is that possible?

-That's irrelevant. -What?

Look, your mother was your mother,

and I'm your father.

Nothing else matters.

No, knowing my story matters.

Knowing who I am matters. It matters to me.

It matters to everyone.

I've gotten the chance to learn that, thanks to you.

People need to know who they came from.

They need to know where they came from.

That is not for me to tell, and you and I are better off

if we just--we leave it at that.

What if that's not good enough for me?

No, Julia, I don't want to have this conversation.

Does he really think that we can just go on

with this elephant in the room that we never discuss?

I mean, how is that supposed to work?

-Denial's a powerful thing.

-So is arrogance. -ROXY: Cosign.

I look at that picture now, and I...I think...

I don't even know what to think.

I mean, if I'm not the daughter of Leon Bechley,

then who am I?

Or maybe he's right.

Maybe I don't even want to know the answer to that.

You know what's even scarier?

Knowing who you can't be anymore.

Hey.

You're still our Roxy,

and we're not going anywhere, okay?

Speaking of which, you're going to work with Edie today.

Ugh. Why?

I thought I had her Tuesdays and Thursdays.

-You--you do, but remember... -Hello?

I told you I was gonna go see Donovan's kids.

But I can cancel. It's not a big deal.

-EDIE: Well, yeah, no... -JULIA: I just need to know...

ROXY: She is right here.

Okay? I am she.

-I can stay home alone. -Are you sure?

Look, I get that you guys are 12-stepping up or whatever,

but I'm okay.

I actually have things to do.

I have amends to make, a lot of them.

So go, I got it.

-Okay. -Okay.

Call us if you need anything.

-Okay.

I really will cancel.

It's fine, just go. It's all right.

It's important.

You always knew there was a chance

Julia would learn the truth.

Mm. I suppose.

I just--I thought he'd come looking for her,

and that's--that's how she'd find out.

I never entertained the notion that it would be my work--

that the science would be the reason.

Okay, so now she knows.

Maybe it's a good thing for both of you.

I'm so tired of secrets.

I mean, aren't you tired?

I don't want to lose her.

Look, you have to trust her, Leon.

I mean, we can't be afraid

of our children knowing the truth.

-Have a little faith. -Mm.

EDIE: Sorry, it's a no-go.

My boss laughed me out of the conference room.

Did he?

We both knew that was gonna happen.

I'm just trying to get this case off my books, counselor,

off our books.

Well, as enticing as that sounds,

you're gonna have to do better, a lot better.

Come on, sweeten the pot.

I told you...

that's as sweet as it's gonna get.

I don't care what Chad thinks. Take it to your client.

-Hmm?

-Am I boring you? -No, sorry.

I've just been sleeping on Julia's couch,

if you can call that sleep.

Your bed's a lot more comfortable.

Yeah, it is.

In fact, I was thinking...

What if I staystay over,

instead of sneaking out at the crack of dawn

all the time?

Oh.

I mean, if it's okay with you and Enzo.

That could maybe work.

Just a couple nights a week?

We'll see how it goes.

Yeah?

Okay.

Hey, stranger.

Hey.

So I'm out of rehab.

Good for you.

I'm, uh--I'm making the apology tour.

Obviously, yours is a biggie.

Yeah.

I missed you.

Thing is, I'm not really supposed to do

the relationship thing right now,

um, I mean, with other people.

Kind of have to focus on myself.

Um, so I can't really hang out.

Yeah, me too.

Isaac, I never should have used your prescription pad--

Stolen it. Stolen it, you mean.

Stolen it, right.

I wasn't thinking straight, and I'm sorry.

You knew exactly what you were doing.

You just weren't thinking about how it would affect me,

how it might actually trigger the medical board

to look into my license and whether I can keep it.

I'm glad you're doing well, Roxy.

I-I really am, but...

I can't do this.

Um, I have patients to see, so...

Okay.

-Hi. -Hey, you look great.

Thanks.

-This is exciting. -I'm excited.

I'm nervous.

I'm super nerv-- I know I shouldn't be, but--

-No.

-Ooh, sorry--oh.

-It's--you're good. -I'm good.

-Hi. -Oh, hi.

-Uh, you must be Luke. -Yeah, this is my big guy.

I'm Julia. Cool shirt.

Your dad tells me you're a soccer player.

Oh, yeah.

Oh, and he had an amazing game--

Dad, let me tell her.

We played Emerson, who's, like, one of the toughest teams.

They have these two forwards who literally look like

they're in high school, and their goalie has,

like, 50 saves or something.

Uh, but I scored two goals.

And...

And I saved one.

Nice. Amazing.

Congrats.

-Olivia! -OLIVIA: What?

Come here, please.

OLIVIA: Coming.

FYI, less is more with Olivia-- you know, teen-girl alert.

Used to be one, I got this. I'm not scared of her.

-I am.

And there she is. Olivia, this is Julia.

Nice to meet you.

You too. Canned water, cool.

That was Olivia's idea.

She got us off of plastic bottles.

Nice. I hear you're all about

taking care of the planet.

Unlike your generation.

Yeah, we're the worst.

I think it's great that you found something

to be passionate about.

I mean, when I was your age, I think I was only passionate

about the cast of The O.C.

Is dinner almost ready?

Yeah, uh, let me go check on the salmon.

-We can, uh... -Oh, sure, thanks.

Get this show on the road.

Great.

Dead cow, dead crocodile, dead cow.

Oh.

Um, no, no.

This is, um--this is faux crocodile,

'cause I can't afford--

Great, plastic.

That's even better for the planet.

I'm confused. Is it better?

Do yourself a favor, Julia. Don't try so hard.

There's really no point.

Need any help, Dad?

JULIA: Um...

Okay. I'll--I'll just hang out here.

Who knew you were so handy in the kitchen?

Hi, Mom!

Hi, baby.

Missed you. You're early.

Better than being late.

We'll see you in a couple days.

Bye, Mom.

Hey, Edie, come play Fortnite.

EDIE: Yes, yes, I would love to.

I'll be right there.

Margaret, this is my girlfriend, Edie.

Hi, really nice to meet you.

You too.

Glad to see you and Enzo have hit it off so well.

Yeah, he's a really great kid.

So...

Um, I am gonna go--

I'm gonna go play Fortnitewith him.

Enzo says she's been here a lot lately.

-Did he? -He did.

Well, Enzo feels comfortable with her, and, actually,

I wanted to talk to you about this.

Up until now, Edie's just been Mommy's friend,

but we're gonna take the next step.

She's gonna stay over a couple nights a week.

Really?

What?

I'm fine with it if you are.

It's just fast.

This is the woman who's still married to a man, right?

You're her first lesbian. You're letting her U-Haul you?

She's not U-Hauling me.

We're--this isn't casual between us.

I love you. I trust you.

But it seems like she should do a little exploring first

before she settles down.

I don't want to see you get hurt or Enzo.

-So how'd it go with Isaac? -Not great.

No, Isaac is really mad at me, and I am really sober.

So I get to feel all of that anger.

And you know what? I don't-- I don't really like it.

-You're walking the walk. -Proud of you.

BOTH: We're here for you, if you--

I know.

I know you are here for me.

You are literally right in front of me.

Thank you.

So we losing a roomie?

Me? You're not losing me.

You are not losing me.

It's just a couple nights a week...for now.

-It's going well.

I met Amanda's ex, cleared that hurdle.

You know what I didn't anticipate is

-how much I would love Enzo. -Hmm.

That little guy's got me hooked.

Must be nice.

I'm not even shooting for love.

I just want Donovan's kids not to hate me.

Oh, it takes time. You got to find common ground.

Like what they like.

Yeah, you know they can smell fear, right?

My dad was really upset when I told him

he wasn't a genetic match.

We cried together,

which is the first time that's ever happened.

Wow. That--that's powerful.

Thank you for sharing that with the group.

So what if he doesn't cry?

What if he doesn't even want to talk to you about it at all?

Has that happened to anyone here?

Really? Not at all?

Okay, um--well, have any of you considered meeting

your biological father?

Miriam, are you worried that will change your relationship

with the man who raised you?

Not really. I think he'll understand.

What if he doesn't?

Um...

I have too much respect for my old man

to try and find my bio dad.

But don't you want to know where you came from?

Don't you want to know more?

-Weren't you just saying-- -I think what I'm saying is,

sometimes it's hard for us to know what to do.

I mean, sometimes, I don't know,

you're--you're afraid of--of finding out things

you don't know about.

Or maybe you're afraid of looking inward

or of hurting the people that you love

or facing rejection or all of those things.

And, you know, you're going throughout your day,

and you're trying to--trying to act like nothing's different.

Nothing's changed. You see your clients.

You go out with your boyfriend.

But in the back of your mind, your brain is just churning.

Like, "Your father is not your father,"

and "Your sisters are not your sisters."

And you don't really have any family,

and then it's like this tsunami that just kind of--just--

just swallows you up and then spits you back out

into the--into the sand.

And then there's just broken,

scattered body parts just-- just all around the beach,

and you're just trying to pick them back up

and put 'em in the cart.

But you just don't know how you got the cart.

I'm sorry.

I think the first step is for me to put myself out there--

for you all to put yourself out there...

I mean.

Did you have a chance to look

at the draft motions in limine for Bechley?

Oh, not yet.

Um, I'm sorry.

Um, I have a call, but I can get back to you in 20 or so.

Who's Enzo?

Amanda's son.

Right.

Tim.

Just call me when you've had a chance to look it over.

Roxy?

Natalie, hey.

Um...is Izzy here? I just wanted to, um--

She's at school.

Oh, right. Of course.

Um...you know, it's--it's been a while.

I just wanted to come by now that I'm out of...

Um, I just wanted to see how she's doing.

She's doing great.

Great. Good.

Kept up her training at Round-Offs.

-Oh. -Nick took over.

She's excelling.

He thinks maybe four years,

she'll be trial ready, not eight.

Yeah, he may be right about that.

Um, listen...

I know it's all very exciting...

um, but Nick is manipulative.

You just-- you need to be careful.

You know, he told me you might come around,

say negative things about him.

Look, I don't know what he told you, but, um...

You can't trust him, okay?

He--he grooms people, and he's dangerous.

And--and when I was a teenager,

he took advantage of me.

And I thought it was a relationship,

but I know that now--

How am I supposed to believe anything that you say?

You let my daughter ride around in your Porsche

while you were high as a kite.

-I mean, she could have-- -I know, I know.

You came to my door,

and you lied straight to my face.

I know.

I know I've made terrible mistakes,

but I'm here,

and I am taking responsibility for that, and I am sorry.

But you have to believe me--

No, no, no, no, no. No buts, no.

We're done Roxy.

I-I can't trust you.

I can't ever trust you again.

-Ooh. -Oh!

-JULIA: No. Aw!

-Dude, give me a chance. -Well, you can't just

stand there with it.

-You got to pass. -How do I do that again?

-BOTH: Hit X. -Okay.

Sorry. I thought that's how you shoot.

Olivia, you're next.

Uh, no, I'm not.

Hey, we're all here having fun.

It's okay. Olivia can cheer me on from the couch.

Yeah, go Julia.

-Goal! -Oh.

Wait, that's it?

You were down 25-0. It's automatic mercy rule.

That's not fair. How do I get my fans to riot?

Oh, I forgot. I got you guys something.

Um, it's nothing huge.

But, uh, I was walking in the Village the other day,

and, Olivia, this is 100% hemp

and 100% exchangeable.

Oh, that's cool.

Olivia, isn't that awesome?

Yeah, thanks.

Um, and then, Luke, I saw this vintage store,

and I remembered that you liked The Pretenders.

-Oh. -And so I got you another one,

a new one, 'cause the other one

seemed like you had it for a while.

So...and I love any kid

who digs Chrissie Hynde, 'cause that's cool.

-Julia... -What?

I don't want a new one.

That was Mom's shirt.

She loved The Pretenders.

Oh.

Oh, my God, I'm so sorry.

No, it's okay. Uh, just--I'll be right back.

Oh, yeah. Sure, sure.

Hey.

Nick.

Roxy.

It's good to see you.

We need to talk.

I heard about rehab.

-You just getting out? -Yeah, I--

Look, I'm really proud of you.

You faced your demons.

I really do hope that you found a way

to some stability.

Nick, what we had...

our relationship...

it was wrong.

What are you talking about?

You know what I'm talking about.

You--it--it was--

It was over a long time ago.

You can't train Izzy.

You can't do to her what you did to me.

I didn't do anything to you,

certainly nothing you didn't want.

You know that.

And Izzy? Izzy's an 11-year-old girl.

-Nick. -What are you saying that I am?

No! You know what's wrong?

Me thinking I could take another chance on you,

thinking you'd changed.

It is not surprising

that you ended up in rehab, 'cause you're a joke.

Everybody knows that.

Look, I know that self-destruction is your thing,

but you're not taking me down with you.

No one's ever gonna listen to you.

And stay away from me.

Hey.

Weren't you coming in tomorrow?

Yes, I was nearby meeting a colleague.

I got Edie's message about the plea deal.

Hey, just think of it as a starting point

for negotiation.

Have a seat.

You want a drink?

Uh, yeah, actually-- yeah, I-I do.

Is Edie here?

Edie went...home.

And for what it's worth,

the whole team thinks it's a crap deal.

Yes, but, uh, Edie's been the one

who's, uh, been on point, so...

Yes, she's the one on point.

Oh, I'm sorry.

It's not that I don't appreciate your efforts.

-I get it. -It's just Edie's my--

she's my daughter.

You know, I trust her, and I--

Yeah, I guess I just want to hear her thoughts

on exactly what kind of game

she thinks this prosecutor's playing.

Well, um...

that's a little complicated for Edie these days.

What does that mean?

Uh, Tim, what's going on?

Edie is not at home.

She moved out.

Oh.

Oh.

Well, I'm--I'm sorry to hear that.

She's with Amanda Doherty.

"With"?

Involved with, sleeping with.

With.

Hey, Leon.

Sorry I missed you earlier. So what is it?

What--what's the big emergency?

Uh, Tim told me.

Told you what?

That your marriage is over and that you've been

in a secret, intimate relationship

with the prosecutor who intends to send me to prison.

Leon, I want to assure you

that it hasn't affected anything.

Amanda and I...

It's complicated.

Mm, I guess complicated is another word for unethical.

Oh, okay, first of all, who are you to judge my morals?

Well, I'm your client, and you've been lying to me.

You want to call me out, throw me under the bus, go ahead.

I not gonna do that. You're my daughter.

But I am gonna ask you to step down.

What?

Let Tim take over.

-Leon. -You're fired, Edie.

How could you do that?

Why? Why would you tell Leon?

Because I didn't want to lie to our client.

Or should I say continue to lie?

I have never compromised this case.

You know that.

Look, I get it. I get you're angry.

I-I understand that, but are you trying

to burn my career to the ground?

-Is that what you want, Tim? -You lit the match, Edie.

-These are your choices. -Mine?

Yes, exactly, my choices.

So what are you, like, a stepmom now?

What?

Enzo.

That was just a little something.

He--he got an A. We wanted to celebrate.

Every single time I brought up having kids with you,

it was like a third rail.

-I know. -But I get it.

You just didn't want to start a family with me.

Hey.

-There you are. -JULIA: Hey.

Uh, I saw you canceled our appointment.

Yeah, yeah. I-I did.

Okay.

Can I ask where you're at with that, then?

The egg freezing, 'cause hormones would be

the next step.

Maybe there are no next steps, at least for now.

-Okay. -Sorry.

I know you were dying to show me all your ovaries.

No, there's, uh--there's always time for that.

Thank you for being my doctor.

It was nice to talk to some--talk to you

about all this stuff.

Hmm. So is this about Donovan or...?

No, actually, it's, um--it's not.

I...I had the talk with my dad,

and...

I'm not sure I can think about my future

until I figure out my past.

How'd it go?

Apparently he's always known,

and he refuses to discuss it with me.

Yeah, of course.

Mm, I'm sorry, Julia.

Everything always has to be on his terms.

Yeah, that's your dad.

Why?

Why does it always have to be so complicated with him?

Why can't it just be simple? It was like that with my mom.

Or at least I thought it was.

I mean... Who knows?

Maybe I don't even know who she was anymore

or who I am, for that matter.

You're still you, okay, with all of the amazing

and annoying qualities that you've always had.

You're a rock.

You'll get through this.

-ROXY: Whose shoes are these? -Mine.

Sorry.

Why are they by the front door?

What, are we in Japan now?

-Um... -They're a hazard.

-BOTH: Whoa. -Roxy, what's going on?

I'm such an idiot.

I let him do it again. I let him.

-What are we talking about? -Nick.

What happened?

I saw him.

I went to confront him.

And suddenly, it was like, um, I was 16 again.

You know, and I'm paralyzed,

and I can't put two sentences together.

That was really brave of you.

And he's so charming, you know.

And he looks at you, and he--he tells you

he can deliver you to Nationals,

and he can make all your dreams come true.

And he makes you feel like a grown-up...

and that you're not like the other girls...

and that you have a real relationship.

No, no.

He is a controlling, manipulative predator.

You were a minor.

The statute of limitations has not run out

You just say the word, I will start the process--

No. It won't work.

Okay? It doesn't matter.

He still has all the power.

You know, in--in rehab, they told me that I need

to "speak my truth."

What does that matter if no one's gonna believe me?

-Rox. -ROXY: God.

They're just gonna say

all these terrible things about me,

which, by the way, are true.

It's my fault.

I gave them too much ammunition.

Hey, no, it is not your fault. We believe you.

And anyone who knows you and loves you

will believe you, too.

You have to say that. You're family.

JULIA: She would have loved those.

You ever talk to her when you come here?

No, um, not out loud...

but to myself, private conversation.

It try to be private, but I just can't help myself.

I end up sitting here babbling like a crazy person.

Dad, we have to be able to talk about this.

I can't just pretend like I don't know what I know...

Even though you want me to.

I need to know what happened.

You need to tell me what happened.

There isn't-- there isn't a lot to tell.

Uh, your mother and I were going through a rough time,

and, um...she had a fling.

And she assured me that it was a one-time thing.

And I believed her.

That's it?

You have to know more than that.

No, I-I didn't want to know more.

You know, it didn't matter to me that you weren't mine.

That was just a data point. The less I knew, the better.

'Cause when it came to you, Julia, I did not hesitate.

But you kept it from me. You lied to me.

I wanted to protect you.

Did you?

Or did you want to protect yourself?

-Julia, please-- -Dad.

I...I need more.

I need to know more.

I need to find out who my biological father is.

Um, Tim's taking over the case.

What? Why?

-You worked so hard.

-Did you talk to Chad? -Yeah.

It was the firm's decision.

I don't want to get into it. I can't get into it.

It's, uh--it's fine.

Tim earned it. It's done.

-I'm sorry.

You know what's gonna get me through?

You.

I'm so lucky to have you.

I'm so happy to be here.

-Me too. -Oh, wait.

Just one more suitcase.

You can just tell me. They hate mehate me.

No. It's not you.

They would hate anybody right now.

-All right?

I mean, the T-shirt thing didn't exactly--

I'm--I'm so sorry.

But there's no way you could have known.

I just--I don't want him to think

that I would ever try to--

He doesn't.

I talked to Luke. He's fine, so is Olivia.

This was not your fault.

If anything, it was my fault.

I just--I was excited about you,

and I pulled the trigger too quickly.

I moved things forward too fast.

Oh, um, I-I'm-- I'm excite--

I'm really excited,

and I really, really care about you.

So I care about your kids.

And that means the world to me.

But I also have to respect where they're at

and what they're ready for.

And, clearly, they're not ready for this.

I don't want to give up. Do you?

No. No, of course not.

They've just been through...

All I mean is I think maybe we keep

you and me in our little bubble a while longer...

or the foreseeable future.

I like our bubble. It's cozy.

We can have more of our little secret sleepovers.

Okay. I love you.

I love you, too.

-RON: Hey. -Hey.

What is it, Rox?

I have something that I need to tell you,

but I'm afraid that if I do,

it'll just make things worse between us.

It's about Nick.

SINGER: ♪ Ooh, ooh

We, uh...

He sexually abused me.

This was our fault.

No, no.

He manipulated you, too.

We wanted success so badly for you,

Didn't want to see.

So you guys just-- you--you believe me?

Of course we believe you.

Oh, my special girl.

I'm really proud of you for telling your parents.

I got to hand it to Ron and Diane--they really stepped up.

Now you can move forward, stay focused on your recovery.

Part of my recovery

is supposed to be finding purpose.

I want to stop that bastard before he hurts anybody else.
