Previously on "God Friended Me"...

Unfortunately, your current treatment

didn't give us the results
we were hoping for.

So what's the next step?

We're gonna have to get more aggressive.

I wanted to see if you were interested

in getting dinner sometime.

So I went on a date with Adam.

Parker said not to tell Miles.

Yeah, I think she's right.

I have a lead on the God Account.

There's a waitress I need
to talk to at a diner

across town. Uh, you're
Marsha Smith, right?

I know Alphonse, the father
of your son, Corey.

I just thought you might
be able to get me in touch

- with him.
- No, I can't.

I followed Corey's mom to Brooklyn.

She's in some building called
the National Sewing Company.

It's just a front for DARPA.

Are you saying that the God Account

could be a massive
government experiment?

That's exactly what I'm saying.

How are things with Ali?

Did she have her next round of chemo?

She was supposed to today,
but the doctor wants to talk to us

- before moving forward.
- Is everything okay?

I think so. All she said was there were

other treatment options
she wanted to discuss.

Hey, two coffees and an
extra chili cheese fries

with everything for me.

- What?
- It's 8:00 a.m.

Exactly. I heard breakfast
is supposed to be

the most important
meal of the day, so...

Anyway, still no sign of Corey Smith?

- No.
- I mean, no one has come in

or out of this building
in, like, three days.

Maybe we're wrong about this
being a front for DARPA.

That's possible, but I get this feeling

they got a private
entrance somewhere else.

So continuing to stake this place out

in hopes of confronting
Corey is a waste of time.

Right.

I did reach out Adam, see if he
has any contacts inside DARPA.

I'm just waiting to hear back.

I didn't know you and Adam
were still working together.

Yeah, well, he was a
huge help in finding

the underground poker club

that led us to DARPA in the first place.

Makes sense. So if he knows anyone,

maybe he could get a message to Corey...

tell him we just wanna talk.

Actually, we already have
someone who can do that.

Marsha, Corey's mom.

Whoa. Didn't she make it pretty
clear she didn't wanna help us?

I mean, how are you
gonna change her mind?

By sending a message of my own.

I will catch up with you guys later.

Oh, I gotta meet Ali at the hospital.

Okay.

Happy to do the stakeout
by myself, thank you.

Just me and my fries.

I know we were planning to start

your second round of chemo tomorrow,

but I wanted you to meet

our hospital administrator,
Ms. Marshall, first.

It's nice to meet you all.

And please call me Tammy.

Tammy oversees new drug
trials here at the hospital.

- What kind of trials?
- We're about to start the second round

on a promising new drug that's
shown remarkable results

in shrinking tumors
that initially resist

traditional chemotherapy...

tumors like yours, Ali.

So you're saying I would
start this new treatment

instead of my second round of chemo?

That would be the hope.

With your permission,

I'd like to have your file
transferred to my department

- for a better look.
- But we know time is a factor.

- When would she start?
- The trial starts in a few days,

so no impact there.

Dr. Chang and I agree that you'd
be an excellent candidate.

That said, due to the
drug's early results,

we have been inundated with
patients looking to participate.

Is there anything we can
do to increase her chances

- of getting in?
- Unfortunately, no.

At the end of the day,
Tammy and her team will review

all the applicants' results and
make their final decisions.

Dr. Chang will schedule
some additional blood work

and panels to see if you qualify,
and I'll be in touch.

It was nice meeting you all.

I can't believe it, Miles.

I have been praying for
something like this to happen.

Hello? A little excitement, please?

No, I... I am excited.
It's just I can't stop thinking

there must be something we can
do to make sure you get in.

Too bad I'm not a Friend Suggestion.

I'd be a lock.

The God Account just liked
a music video on YouTube.

Miles, I know you think the
God Account might help

with my cancer, but you weren't
really expecting to get me

as a Friend Suggestion, were you?

Well, why not? After
everything I've done for it,

it'd be nice if it did
something for you.

Well, clearly it wants you
to help someone else.

Let's see this video.

Hey, guys, my name's Kylie,

and this is "Have a Little Faith in Me."

♪ When the road gets dark ♪

♪ And you can no longer see ♪

♪ Just give these loving
arms a try, baby ♪

♪ And have a little faith in me ♪

♪ Have a little faith ♪

Miles, she's phenomenal.

And look at the view count.

- Over a million.
- ♪ Have a little faith in me ♪

Hey.

There's nothing we can
do about the trial

other than wait and see.

Go help your Friend Suggestion.

I mean, if nothing else, we can use
all the good karma we can get.

- Yeah.
- Come on.

Here you go.

Still time?

Hi.

I thought I made myself clear.

I'm not answering any
questions about my son.

You might as well leave.

I followed you

to the National Sewing
Company last week.

I know Corey works for DARPA,

and I know what he's working on.

I need you to deliver a message.

- And what would that be?
- I need to talk to him.

2:00 p.m., tomorrow,
my office at "Catapult."

He'll never talk to a reporter.

Well, that's fine. But at
2:01, he'll read my article

about the code he wrote
that he's been testing

on my friend Miles Finer.

I'm sure readers would
be fascinated to learn

that DARPA's using innocent civilians

as test subjects for
their new technology.

Or, we can have a conversation,
just the two of us,

off the record.

Whoa.

It's like we just stepped onto
the set of "High Fidelity."

- Huh?
- John Cusack, Jack Black...

- Never mind.
- Okay, um,

according to her Facebook page,

Kylie works here after school.

- Isn't that her?
- Yeah.

- Hi, can I help you?
- Uh, yes.

Actually, I was looking for
some music for my sister,

and I thought a vinyl
would be a great gift.

Yeah, what kind of music does she like?

Mainly R&B. She says hip-hop,

but that's just an act.

Got it... old soul. Follow me.

Wait, hey, aren't you the
girl from the YouTube cover,

- Kylie?
- Yeah, you've seen it?

Someone liked it on Facebook.
I thought I recognized you.

- I'm Miles, this is Rakesh.
- Nice to meet you guys.

Nice to meet you. Wow,
talented YouTube star.

Your parents must be
really excited for you.

Uh, it's just me and my mom.

And she's here.

Sorry, could you excuse me for a sec?

Yeah.

Seems like a good kid.
I wonder why the God Account

- sent you her name.
- I think I know why.

It's Kylie's mom.

- What do you mean?
- She's in charge

of Ali's cancer trial.

Rakesh, she's the one who's
gonna be able to choose

- whether she gets in or not.
- Okay, Miles,

- that can't be a coincidence.
- No, it's not.

Hey, I think the God Account
is trying to help Ali

by sending Kylie as a Friend Suggestion.

Yeah, that makes sense.
Fix Kylie's problem,

and her mom can't help but be grateful.

- Yeah.
- Will you at least listen to her?

Alex says this tour is a
once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

You're 16.

You're not signing with that manager,

and you're definitely
not going on some tour.

I'm not gonna let you derail your life.

Mom, please, will you
just talk to her...

The answer is no, Kylie.

Okay, things just got complicated.

- Synced & corrected by MementMori -
-- www.addic7ed.com --

Hey, sorry, we just overheard
your conversation.

- Are you okay?
- Not really.

I should've known my mom
wouldn't let me go on tour.

And why's that?

Because being in the music
industry has been my dream

for as long as I can remember.

Even before the video went viral,

I was getting offers from
labels and managers.

She said no to all of it.

Hey.

Where's your mom?

I thought she was
coming down to meet us.

She did. She already left.

Oh, it went that well, huh?

I told you she'd never go for it.

- Sorry, this is Miles and Rakesh.
- Hi.

- Alex Moss.
- You're Kylie's manager?

Yes. Well, at least I'm hoping to be.

Alex is the best.

She's the one who convinced
Robertson Records

to include me on the million hit tour.

But you saw what I'm up against.

- My mom won't listen.
- Hey, I know what it's like living

under a single parent,
how protective they can be.

Yeah, my dad and I didn't
see eye-to-eye on anything.

You don't get it.
This isn't even about me.

- What do you mean?
- My mom had a sister, Grace.

She was a singer like me,

and she OD'd when she was only 20.

And your mom thinks
if you get into music,

you're gonna turn out just like her?

I'm being punished for something
I had nothing to do with.

- How is that fair?
- It's not.

Well, there must be some kind
of way to find common ground.

Were you able to find that
with your dad, growing up?

Uh, no.

And our relationship was
fractured for many years

because of it.

You don't want that to happen

between you and your mom.

No, I don't.

So how'd you fix it?

Honestly, it took something extreme

to bring us back together.
But we started talking,

- and it was worth it.
- Well, look.

The tour doesn't start for another week.

I can hold them off for a little while,

but we need to find a way
to get through to your mom,

no matter what it takes.

Like Miles said,

getting through to my mom is
gonna take something extreme.

Hey, so what did you find
out about the YouTube star?

You know, nothing yet.

Yeah, we stopped by the record store

that she works at, but she wasn't there.

Hmm, okay. Well, keep me posted.

You know, I kinda feel like
I'm part of the God Squad

- these days.
- For sure.

- Dude.
- Mm.

Why didn't you tell Ali
who Kylie's mom is?

Because I don't want to worry
her that my Friend Suggestion

might jeopardize her chances
of getting into the trial.

Hey, how'd it go with Marsha?

Well, I told her that we
need to meet with Corey

by 2:00 tomorrow or I'd
publish everything we know

about what he and DARPA have been doing.

So by "message" you meant "threat."

- Nice play.
- Thank you.

What have you guys been up to?

I got a new Friend Suggestion,
Kylie Marshall.

She is a 16-year-old singer
who wants to go on tour,

but her mother is against it.

Okay, so have you talked to her mom?

That's the problem.

Her mom works at the hospital.

I met her this morning
when I was with Ali.

She's in charge of the new drug trial

Ali's trying to get into.

And you're worried if you
interfere with Kylie,

her mom would hold it against you.

This new drug trial
could be the difference

between life and death.

I can't ignore that.

Look, Miles, no one's asking you to.

But our best chance of this
working out for everyone,

including Ali, is to
do what we always do.

He's right.

Which means you gotta talk to her mom.

Okay.

Bishop Finer?

- Yes?
- I'm sorry to disturb you.

There was no one in the waiting room.

Yeah, not a problem, Miss...

Smith. Marsha Smith.

We knew each other many years ago

when I was dating Alphonse Jeffries.

Marsha.

Of course. Um, it's been a while.

Please, take a seat.

I'm sorry to barge in here
after all these years,

but I... uh, I need to speak with you.

Of course. What about?

My son, Corey,

the son I had with Alphonse.

I only just heard he had a son.

I had no idea that you were Corey's mom.

Well, I am, and I will
always have my son's back,

which is why I'm here.

A reporter named Cara Bloom

is blackmailing him,
threatening to ruin his reputation.

It doesn't sound like the
Cara Bloom that I know.

Well, she claims that my son is behind

some kind of code that's
linked with your son, Miles.

Yes, uh, the God Account.

I don't know what the God Account is,

but if it's being used on
civilians like your son,

there is no way Corey is behind it.

I was hoping you would speak with Miles

and explain this.

Miles has been trying to find out

who's behind the God Account
from the beginning.

If he and Cara think
that Corey is behind it,

they must have a good reason.

So you're saying you
won't speak with him?

No, I'm saying that even if I did,

it wouldn't make any difference.

Miles is not gonna stop
until he's figured it out.

If you end up speaking with Miles,

remind him that they are threatening

a high-ranking official at DARPA

with false allegations.

Thank you for your time, Bishop Finer.

Hi, Tammy.

Uh, my name is Miles Finer.
I met you earlier this morning.

- Of course. Your sister's Ali.
- Mm-hmm.

What can I do for you?

Um, do you have a minute?

Sure.

I was at the record store

that your daughter works
at earlier today,

and I couldn't help but
overhear the argument

you two were having.

Why did you come down
here to talk about that?

Well, after you left,
I spoke with Kylie,

and she told me about
your sister, Grace.

I'm sorry, but I'm not sure

how any of this is your business.

Look. I know that you
love your daughter,

and that you would do
anything to protect her.

But take it from me,

you might be driving her away.

What's going on?

I... is this about your sister?

Y... you think inserting
yourself into my life,

into the life of my daughter

as some sort of Good Samaritan

is gonna get her into the trial?

Because that's not how it works.

No, no, no, no. That...
that's not why I'm here.

I'm just here to help.

My daughter and I are fine.

Tammy Marshall?

Yes?

You've been served from
New York State Court.

Have a nice day.

This can't be.

Kylie's suing for emancipation.

What the hell did you
say to my daughter?

Nothing. We just talked,

and she introduced me
to her manager, Alex.

That manager was there after I left?

What... are you two in this together?

I'm not in anything with anyone, okay?

I... I'm just here to help.

I didn't mean for any of this to happen.

And yet, it did.

Get out of my office, now.

This is bad.

I mean, Tammy blames me for
Kylie wanting to emancipate.

She thinks I gave her the idea.

Dude, in all fairness,

you did tell Kylie to go do
something extreme, so...

Rakesh, not helping.

No. No, no, no.
He's right, I did say it,

and now I may have
screwed up Ali's chances

of getting into the trial.

Miles, this isn't your fault.

Okay? You don't just
decide to emancipate

and serve papers in a matter of hours.

I'm guessing Kylie had this
in the works for a while.

Yeah, she's right. I mean, Kylie did say

this had been an ongoing
fight with her mom.

Yeah, and I pushed her over the edge.

Look, enough with the blame game.

The good news is, we know what's wrong

and we know how to fix it.

Look, just talk to Kylie,

convince her to call all of this off;

make sure that she and her mom

reconcile before it's too late.

If you do that,

all will be forgiven with Tammy.

Kylie. Hey, do you have a minute?

Uh, yeah, sure. What's up?

I was with your mom yesterday

when the process server showed up.

But how do you know her mom?

She's administering a trial that
my sister might be up for.

Look, what... what I'm
trying to say is... I get it.

Hey, going on tour is
an amazing opportunity,

but risking your relationship
with your mom

is not the answer.

You said it yourself.

I had to do something extreme.

I don't have another choice.

Yes, you do. Talk to her.

There's no point.

She doesn't care about what I want.

Of course she cares.

She's just looking out for you.

Kylie?

Hey.

If you're here to change my
mind, it's not gonna work.

Miles already tried.

Look, I... I know you told
me to stay out of this,

but I'm just trying
to make things right.

So am I.

You're the most important
person in my life.

I don't wanna go to court,
and I don't wanna lose you.

If going on this tour is
going to make you happy,

then I'm not gonna stand in your way.

You mean it?

Thank you. Mom, thank you so much.

What changed your mind?

I... Miles did.

After we spoke last night,
I realized he was right.

You need to follow your own path.

I'll off the paperwork.
Make it official.

Actually, that won't be necessary.

I know the law firm that
filed the emancipation

works with your company.

It was never my intention
to break up a family.

I just wanted to do what
was best for Kylie.

So do I.

You can go on the tour, but
not with her as your manager.

Mom, Alex has been working
on this for months, okay?

None of this would even be
happening if it wasn't for her.

Kylie, it's okay.

If getting your voice heard

means me stepping away,
then it's worth it.

- Good luck.
- Thank you.

Yeah.

Thanks again, Miles.

Adam?

- Miles.
- Hey,

what... what's going on? Where's Cara?

Oh, she'll be right back.

So what... what are you doing here?

I'm helping Cara look into
Corey Smith and DARPA.

My, um, sources came up empty,

but I heard you guys are
about to meet with him.

Yeah. Yeah, hopefully.

Miles.

Okay, well, um...

Good luck on your interview with Corey.

Yeah, I'll let you know how it goes.

So, uh, how did it go with Kylie?

Uh, actually, things worked out.

Tammy came by and said
that Kylie can go on tour.

Emancipation's off.

That's great.

- Isn't it?
- Well, Tammy said

that I was the one who changed her mind,

but the thing is, I didn't.

I mean, she kicked me out of her office.

So if you didn't change
her mind, then what did?

- I don't know.
- Cara Bloom?

Special Agent Pellum.

Uh, we were expecting Corey Smith.

Yeah, Mr. Smith won't be joining us,

but I have some questions of my own.

Why don't we start by you telling me

how you got onto Mr.
Smith in the first place?

You know, I just... I don't remember.

Who else have you spoken to about this?

You can read about it in my article.

It'll be up on "Catapult"
right after you leave.

You do that, you'll be sued
by the Department of Justice,

and your career will be ruined.

You know, I'm sure they told
Woodward and Bernstein

the same thing.

Now, if you were really here
on government business,

you would've killed my story

before you even walked
through that door.

I think Corey sent you to
find out what we know.

So why don't you tell him,
if he wants answers,

he knows where to find us.

- Whew.
- Hey, you okay?

Yeah, it was like an out
of body experience.

But, uh, I think we made our point.

Now we wait.

Clearly, Marsha relayed
my message to Corey,

and that was his response.

- Not very subtle.
- Mm.

Miles, I know you want answers,

but you and Cara need to be careful.

Dad, I get it, but if that
agent wanted to arrest us,

- he would have.
- And if you continue to press,

that may happen.

I'm sorry, but I can't let this go.

Hey, guys. I just heard from Ali.
She's running late.

Is everything okay?

- Yeah, fine.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Just God Account stuff.

Speaking of which,

Ali told me that your
new Friend Suggestion's

- a really talented singer.
- Yes, she is.

As a matter of fact,
she's heading out on tour.

- Really?
- Mm-hmm.

Wow. Have I heard of her?

No, no, I don't think so.

But you have met her mom.

As a matter of fact, we all have.

My Friend Suggestion's
name is Kylie Marshall.

Her mom's name is Tammy Marshall.

The woman who's in charge
of Ali's cancer trial.

Yes. She didn't want her
daughter to go on tour,

so Kylie filed for emancipation.

- What?
- But the thing is,

the emancipation is off.

Tammy changed her mind.

I'm just not sure why.

People change their minds all the time.

Yes, but Tammy's fears
go deeper than that.

She had a sister, Grace,
who was a musician,

and died of a drug overdose.

Tammy was determined to make sure

that Kylie did not follow
in those footsteps.

Wait a minute.

Grace Marshall is Tammy's sister?

Yeah, why? Did you know her?

Grace performed at the
Blue Danube a few times.

And I think I actually have a few photos

from one of her shows.

If helping Tammy's daughter

tipped the scales even 1%

- in Ali's favor...
- Dad, I know.

And... and I wanna get this right.

I... I just feel like
I'm missing something.

Grace was so talented.

I remember thinking and hoping
that she would slow down

and clean herself up
after she got pregnant.

Wait, this picture was taken
in 2004... that's 16 year ago.

Grace is pregnant, and not Tammy.

That's what I've been missing.

What are you talking about?

Tammy agreed to let Kylie go on tour

because going to court
would reveal the truth:

she's not her mom, Grace is.

- Miles.
- Hey, do you have a minute?

Sure.

Uh, thanks again for
helping me out yesterday.

I wish I could take the
credit, but we both know

I had nothing to do with
you changing your mind.

Where did you get this?

My stepmom used to watch Grace perform

at the Blue Danube.

Has Kylie seen it?

No. I came to you first.

Now, I know you think
I only got involved

because of my sister,
but that is not true.

I'm only here to...

Help?

That's what you keep saying.

And if that's true, then
you will leave this alone.

When Grace died, you stepped up.

You were there for Kylie every
single day of her life.

You raised an amazing daughter.

So why not tell her the truth?

- It's not that simple.
- Yes, it is.

If you don't tell her,
if she finds out another way,

she's going to resent you
for the rest of her life.

- Is that what you want?
- Of course not.

Then tell her.

I can't.

I appreciate you coming to
me with this first, Miles,

but I'm asking you to stay out of it.

Thought you could use a break.

I was literally just
craving a cup of coffee.

- Thank you.
- You're welcome.

So, any update on Corey Smith?

Uh, no.

Not since you texted
me the same question,

like, an hour ago.

- Right.
- Why do I get the feeling

you're not just here to bring me coffee

or for an update on Corey?

Because I'm not.

Yesterday, I kinda got the sense

that you hadn't told Miles
that we were dating.

It just hasn't come up.

And it won't unless you bring it up.

Look...

I like you, and I wanna
see where this goes,

but if you still have
feelings for Miles,

I understand.

I'd just rather know sooner than later.

Miles and I are just friends.

And I'm gonna tell him about us.

I just need to find the right time.

Okay.

And I like you too.

I tried to convince
Tammy to talk to Kylie

and tell her the truth. She refused.

Yeah, dude, I... I... I get it.

Like, she's been keeping
this secret for so long,

she's probably hoping she'll
never have to own up to it.

So what's your next move?

Honestly? Nothing.

What do you mean, nothing?

Kylie's not going to emancipate,

she's going on tour and her and Tammy

seem like they're in a good place.

Maybe that's what the
God Account wanted.

Miles, you and I both know
that's not how this works.

Can I... can I ask you a question?

Mm-hmm.

Would you be backing off if Tammy

wasn't in charge of Ali's trial?

I went to her,

told her to talk to Kylie.
She didn't want to.

Yeah, you're not answering my question.

But it doesn't matter, she's in charge.

Yeah, but she's not your
Friend Suggestion, Kylie is.

Dude, I think you're backing off

'cause you're afraid
that upsetting Tammy

is somehow gonna affect Ali's chances.

And... and fair enough.

But dude, you gotta admit that,

at... at least to yourself.

Okay, okay, fine, yes.

Yes, I am backing off, okay?

Ali is getting blood work done
right now at the hospital,

and if all goes well,

tomorrow she'll be
accepted into the trial.

And I'm not going to do
anything that will risk that...

Even if that means not helping
my Friend Suggestion.

Now, I'm sorry, I have to go.

I promised Ali I'd meet
her at the hospital.

While I appreciate you holding my hand

while I give blood, I think
I would've been just fine

- without it.
- Hey, I wanted to be here.

Alex?

Hey, what are you doing here?

I was just talking to Tammy.

Looks like I'm gonna be
managing Kylie after all.

Really? Um, what changed her mind?

I think she just wants to do
what's best for her daughter.

Good to see you.

Hold on, your Friend
Suggestion's mom is Tammy?

- As in the head of the trial?
- Yes.

And I'm guessing you didn't
leave that out by accident.

Ali, I didn't want to worry you.

Especially when things weren't
going well with Kylie.

- How are they now?
- Everything is fine.

I promise.

You know you've never been a good liar.

Okay.

Tammy told me to back off.
Now, if I don't,

what if she holds that against you, huh?

I can't jeopardize your chances
of getting into the trial.

And I understand that,

because I want nothing
more than to get into it.

But, Miles, you have to treat this

like you would any other
Friend Suggestion.

Kylie deserves that.

Yeah. You're right.

Can I catch up with you later?

Go.

Hi.

What happened?

I ran into Alex.

She said that she was
managing Kylie again.

She found out the same thing you did.

Apparently, the lawyer she
hired for Kylie's emancipation

- dug it up.
- Did she tell Kylie?

No.

But she said if I don't sign
over control of Kylie's career,

then she'll tell her everything.

- I don't know what to do.
- Wait.

Then she's... she's blackmailing you.

- I know.
- Well, you can't just sit back

- and do nothing.
- You were right, Miles.

Whether I want it to or not,
the truth is gonna come out.

So then go to her.

I'm just working up the
courage to do that.

Is there anything I can do to help?

Actually, would you mind coming with me,

make sure I don't lose my nerve?

Absolutely.

Kylie, we need to talk.

Mom, I already know.

Alex just told me the good news.

Thank you so much for
letting her manage me.

You made the right decision,
Ms. Marshall.

Your daughter's in good hands with me.

No. No, she's not.

Mom, what's going on?

There's something I need to tell you.

Something that I should have
told you a long time ago.

The reason I have been so against you

following in Grace's footsteps...

is because I see so much of her in you.

You have her eyes...

Her voice.

Yeah, because she was my aunt.

No.

Because she was your mother.

What are you talking about?

After Grace...

I adopted you.

Sweetheart, please say something.

How could you lie to me?

I... I was trying to protect you...

From what, the truth?

You had no right!

- Kylie, please.
- This is why you need to take control

of your career and your life.

Don't stand there and act like

this wasn't part of your plan.

Alex found out about Grace

and wanted to blackmail your mom.

She is the one who wants
to take control of your life.

Great, so... so I can't trust anyone?

- Kylie.
- No, you know what?

I'm... I'm done, with both of you.

I... I need to do this on my own.

What are you saying?

I'm saying I'll see you in court.

No, I didn't think things

between Kylie and her mom
could get any worse.

- Well, what are we gonna do?
- Honestly, I don't know.

But the moment they step
into that courtroom,

no matter who wins, they both lose.

Well, is there any way to postpone it?

Buy some time for Kylie to calm
down and think things through?

It's scheduled for this morning.

I don't see how.

You know, Tammy gave up whatever
life she was gonna have

to raise Kylie after Grace died.

That's an amazing thing
to do, so why hide it?

I've been asking myself
that same question.

But we need to focus on
getting through to Kylie,

convincing her not to
go through with this.

I've been scrolling through
Kylie's Facebook page

looking for an answer, and
all I'm seeing is a mother

and daughter who love each other...

I mean, look at these pictures
from her first birthday.

"Thanks, Mom, for being
there for 16 years.

- #ThrowbackThursday."
- See? Adorable.

16 years.

- Does that mean something?
- Maybe.

- When did Grace pass away?
- Um...

2006.

That's it.

That's it. I think I know why she lied.

- Care to explain?
- Uh, not enough time.

I have to head down to the courthouse

before it's too late.

We've already discussed this.

I know you're angry.
You have every right to be,

but we need to talk about this, please.

Kylie! Hey, Kylie.

You can't do this.

Miles, what are you doing here?

You are a great mom. And you know it.

But you're angry because
you were lied to,

and you don't know why she did it.

- What are you talking about?
- You need to tell her.

Stay out of this, Miles.

I'm sorry, no.

I can't.

My first birthday?

What does that have to do with anything?

Grace isn't in the photo.

Yeah, because she died.

Tell her.

That's not why, Kylie.

Grace didn't die until you
were almost two years old.

The reason she's not in that photo

is the reason she's not
in any photos with you.

Because she left after you were born.

I don't understand.

Grace loved you in her own way.

But there was nothing
more important to her

- than her career.
- So she abandoned me?

She asked me to take you.

And I did.

I adopted you the moment we
got home from the hospital,

and it was the best decision of my life.

And even if you don't
want me as your mother,

you will never stop being my daughter.

- We can work this out.
- No, no, no.

I'm so... I'm sorry, I have to go.

Please.

I'll go talk to her.

Kylie.

Wait up, listen, listen. Look.

Just because Tammy didn't
give birth to you,

doesn't mean she's not your mom.

She has been there for you
every day of your life.

She also lied to me
every day of my life.

Just because she had a good
reason doesn't make it okay.

No, it makes her human.

Even if I could forgive her for lying,

I have no idea where we go from here.

I mean, everything's changed.

Yeah. And you know what?

Maybe that's a good thing,

because you both can start over.

Not because you have to,
but because you want to.

Why are you defending her?

Because when it comes
to protecting family,

I know what it's like
to do the wrong thing

for the right reasons.

There are decisions
that are thrust upon us

and decisions we choose to make.

They're not always easy,

but the good thing is
they can always be changed.

I'm glad you called.

I dropped the emancipation suit.

But that doesn't change what I want.

I wanna make records and go on tour,

and I wanna be a singer.

I know.

And I'm not gonna stop you.

Look, I...

I know you're scared of me
following in Grace's footsteps,

but I'm not.

How can you be so sure?

Because I don't take after Grace.

I take after my mom.

And when you can,

you try to tip the
scales to go your way.

Ali, you're one of three
qualified candidates

for the final slot.

With everything Miles did for my family,

I figured putting your name through

was the least I could do.

Unfortunately, an issue showed
up in your final review.

What?

Our cardiologist found a
mitral valve prolapse.

Don't millions of people have that?

Yes, but because we're uncertain

how this new drug will affect the heart,

any condition, no matter how small,

disqualifies the candidate.

I'm so sorry, Ali. I...

I wish there was something I could do.

But thankfully, it's
the people in your life

who are there to pick you up

to make sure you're never alone.

- Hey, Ali's a fighter, Miles.
- Damn straight.

You know, I just don't understand.

Like, why would the God
Account send me Kylie,

let me fix something
between her and Tammy,

all for it to end up like this?

I really thought this was
going to be the thing

that saves Ali's life.

But it didn't make a difference.

Well, then that's the first thing we ask

- when we talk to Corey.
- Have you heard from him?

No, but... Look, the three
of us are not gonna stop

until we get answers,

until we have a way to help Ali.

Hey, we're here, Miles.

Till the end of the road.

Oh, it's Marsha.

She wants to meet at
the coffee shop tonight.

- Did she say why?
- No.

But she said that you
should be there as well.

We're here.

Question is, why?

In the back.

You must be Cara and Miles.

I'm Corey Smith.

I heard you had some questions for me.

Just one.

Are you behind the God Account?
