The Bible is
one of the most fascinating

pieces of literature
in existence.

Matthew 22:39.

"Thou shalt love"...

- Whoo!
- Thy neighbor as thyself.

This appears in Matthew...

But it is not
the only time this sentiment...

Mom!

Damn it. Reed!

We were in a groove!
What is the matter with you?

What's the matter with me?
You!

It's hard enough to concentrate

without you and Mother Courage...

- Mother Plague.
- It's right there.

Whatever.
I swear to God, Mom, if...

What's that smell?

Are you guys high right now?

- Seriously?
- Of course not.

There are, like,
three other houses

you could be doing this at.

We'll keep it down, okay?

Okay, okay, let's shake it off

with a little help from this.

Yes!

All right, first,
one, two, three, four!

Okay, can you plug in my...

Let's go!

Whoo!

Yeah!

Whoo!

- Help! Somebody!
- My God!

- I'm sorry I yelled at you.
- It's okay.

You're gonna be okay.

Whoa! Okay.

Guys, I've got this one.
You check on the others.

We're here to help.

Ma'am, can you tell me
how you're feeling?

Any pain? Headache?
Joint pain?

Was feeling pretty good
before this.

Not seeing any sign of a fever.

What is this? Ebola?

Heart rate's elevated.

Blood pressure is
slightly decreased.

- BP's good here.
- Copy that.

LAFD. You're okay.

Try to sit up.

Take it easy.

You all right?

A little freaked out.

Have any of you
traveled recently?

Maybe in the last 14 days?

No, we've just been here,
jamming.

Mother Plague.

Like you're really leaning
into your band name.

Guys, check to see if there's
any chemicals lying around.

Maybe they got exposed
to something.

I see something
I'd like to get exposed to.

What are you talking about?

He's wearing a space suit.

My God.

They're still high.

Narc!

Okay, ladies, what did you take?

They were smoking it.

I smelled it
when I was here before.

Is that a crime, officer?

Looks like they were smoking
something... pink.

Puffer's Paradise.

You buy from them too.

No, but we've been treating
quite a few of their customers.

- Is that a dispensary?
- Yeah, online.

They got pretty popular
during the March shutdown.

What they don't tell
their customers is,

their weed is synthetic

and laced with superwarfarin.

- Rat poison.
- Prolongs the high.

Okay, let's push fluids

to support
their blood pressures.

They'll need
parenteral vitamin K

and fresh-frozen plasma ASAP.

Are you the only ones using it?

We need to know if you gave
some to anyone else.

I have some to Kate
down the block for her anxiety.

And Mr. Carpenter
for his bad back.

And the nice lady on the corner

for her arthritis.

Eddie, Buck,
start knocking on doors.

See if any of the neighbors are
experiencing symptoms.

Let's hope
they're not as friendly.

And Mr. Donovan
across the street.

There goes the neighborhood.

We eventually
had to take apart the window

just to get her out.

It was pretty awesome.

Awesome?

A woman got stuck in a window

trying to throw her own poop out

because she was too terrified
of what a guy would think?

Yeah.
Crazy, right?

Sad.

But reflective of where dating

and hookup culture have
devolved to.

Yeah.

I moved out here
to get a fresh start.

But it seems like it'll be
just like everywhere else.

Welcome to dating in LA.

Not sure I wanna toast

another woman's
total humiliation.

That's not what I was toasting.

Then what were you toasting?

I was toasting your move.

At a very inopportune time.

But hey,
if it's any consolation,

I think they kept on dating.

It's not.

Peppa!
Peppa, Peppa, Peppa!

Why'd you do that?
I lost my turn.

- Peppa!
- No. I'm playing a game.

Denny, your 20 minutes are up.

I told you that ten minutes ago.

- It's not fair!
- Peppa, Peppa, Peppa.

Okay, why can I hear y'all
over Queen Bey at max volume?

I think it's time
to expand our family.

We're about to be
a two iPad household.

It's impossible
to keep the peace

between these two otherwise.

I can take a quick break.

Who's ready for pj's
and a bedtime story?

Can we read it on the iPad?

Absolutely not.

I'll get that.

Grab a book?
Can you...

Nia, you wanna help me
pick one out?

Here's Mommy!

Ma, what are you doing here?

Well, don't act so happy
to see me, Henrietta.

I didn't know you were coming.

Toni?

Grammy!

There's the welcome
I was hoping for.

What's a Grammy?

I am.

Now, come give me a hug.

A Grammy is a grandma, Nia.

Grammy is your grandma too now.

- Grandma!
- Mwah.

Did you drive here from Vegas?

Made it in under four hours.

And not a minute
to stop and call.

Ma, we're in the middle
of a pandemic.

You can't just show up
at people's houses.

You're not people.
You're my family.

I've been checked out.
There ain't no cooties here.

You need to see my papers?

It's great to see you.

- You have any luggage?
- No.

I'm already settled in
at my new place.

Cute little Airbnb
right here in the neighborhood.

Just until I can find something
of my own.

Find something?
How long are you staying?

Permanently.

I'm moving back.

Hi, neighbor.

Grammy, come look at my room.

Sure thing.
You lead the way.

She's moving back.

In the neighborhood.

It's great.

Is it?

Chocolate cheesecake, please.

- Certainly.
- Ooh, yeah.

Sounds good.
You wanna just share?

Wow, that's presumptive.

Right. Sorry.
Two slices, please.

- Absolutely.
- Thank you.

Oof, looks like we have

some extra cardio in our future?

As in the cake, you know?
All that sugar and...

Did you just body-shame me?

Bro, Queen Maxine said
she's not the one.

Don't fight it.

Hey!
How'd it go?

It was a nightmare.

Remind me to delete
that dating app off my phone.

There is cake.
You got a fork?

No.
Are you even listening to me?

Yeah, I'll listen even better

when I'm eating
this chocolate cheesecake.

Fork, please.

Man, this trash smells awful.

Whoa.
Your turn to take it out.

Great.

Maxine Thee Romance Queen says

that all dating experiences
teach us something,

so after a bad date,
name one good thing

and one bad thing you learned
from the experience.

Everything.

Never have to see
Veronica ever again.

What's wrong?

We have to move.

What, you forget your key?

It's in my room.

That's a good place for it.

Thank you.

My God, you...

The windows.
Nice, right?

Come take a look.

Yeah, now that I'm home more,

I felt like it would be
too dark in here,

so I wanted to just blow it out
and bring in some more light.

And the homeowners association
approved that?

Because as I recall,

you all were not
on the best of terms.

Dad's HOA president now.

Well, if you can't beat 'em,
join 'em.

And now that I have more time,

well, I felt like I would take
a more active role.

What's this?

Spying on the neighbors.

Why don't you pick up your stuff

and take it into your room

instead of throwing it
on my floor?

But I'm starving.

Man, just go.
And wash your hands.

Interesting view.

Yeah, well, who knew

that people watching could be
better than TV?

Look.

Let's see...

yeah.

That's Miles.

You know his name?

No, that's just what I call him.

You know, he's always running.
He started this exercise kick.

Ooh.
All right, Miles.

Yeah?

Okay, well, watch, watch, watch.

And...

That's Jackie.

She likes to paint
in the mornings.

Is she any good?

I guess not.

- Okay. Okay. All right.
- Aww.

There.
That's my mystery man, Slim.

Because he's kinda shady.

Why is he shady?

Because he has a lot of trash.

You are watching a lot.

Well, you know, Harry,

he's got a hang
of this homeschooling thing,

so he doesn't need me,

you know, hovering over him
as much.

And David, he's back to doing
his surgeries again.

Well, what about your work?

It's at a standstill.

Not a lot of calls
for new shopping malls

or office buildings.

You know, maybe never again.

Michael, I'm so sorry.

Why didn't you say something?

It's not just that.

I made a list.

What kind of list?

When I found out
about the tumor last year,

people told me I should have
a bucket list.

Right?

Ended up being a short list,

because the only thing
I ever cared about was my kids

and preparing them
to be without me.

But you got better.

You're still better, right?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, of course.

But when I got news
that the tumor was shrinking,

I created a new list.

Of things that I wanted to do,

you know, places that I wanted
to see, and...

And you haven't had a chance
to do any of it.

Instead, I just sit here and...

look at the world
from a distance.

What kind of attack, sir?

He came out of nowhere!

He jumped right at us!
He slashed my wife's face!

Sir, what's happening now?

My God, he just got
Mrs. Wilde across the street!

He's attacking
the whole neighborhood!

You have to find Sonny.

I mean, if he attacks
one of the children...

Has Sonny ever behaved
like this before?

He just moved
into the neighborhood

a few weeks ago.

We felt sorry for him.

I never dreamed
he would turn on us this way.

"Hey, neighbor."

- That's all she said?
- That's it.

Just announces
that she's moving back,

and that's all she'll say
on the subject.

You think she wants to move in
with you?

God, no.

Not that Karen didn't try
to talk her into it,

but I made it very clear
to my wife,

we really need to keep
some boundaries.

I don't think
that's too much to ask for.

It's not like Veronica knew
that she lived next door to you

when you guys went out.

We don't know that she didn't.

You know, my therapist says
everyone needs a safe space,

a place where you can
fully be yourself.

My apartment was that place.

She's like a bulldozer.

Just barges in and crushes
everyone in her path,

and by everyone, I mean me.

I thought you two
got along great.

- You talk all the time.
- On the phone, Cap.

When she lived four hours away.

The world has changed.

People's priorities have
changed along with it.

Maybe she just wants to be
closer to her family.

And having her around could be
a huge help with Denny and Nia.

My mother has never been
what you might call a helper.

More like an agent of chaos.

Yesterday,
Albert had to distract her

for 20 minutes
while I got my mail.

I've never been the daughter
that she wanted.

You know she still buys me
dresses for Christmas?

I mean, have either of you
ever seen me in a dress?

I think you'd look lovely
in a dress.

I just don't wanna live
like this.

Always looking over my shoulder.

I think he's behind us.

Hey, Sonny.

Ready for this?

Seemed so harmless, feeding him.

He was like
the neighborhood pet.

You know, I don't think
I even know my neighbors.

You will, very soon.

New baby, little apartment...

Thin walls.

Never let them get too close.

Exactly.

- Hey.
- Hey, Dad.

What are you up to?

Yeah...

Nothing.

Just, you know, working
around the house.

Like what?

Um...

laundry.

Laundry.

Doing some laundry,

and I'm gonna make dinner soon.

What you making?
Maybe I could come over?

Did your mother put you up
to this?

- What? No. I just...
- Yeah,

I had a free night
and I thought it'd be nice

to spend it with my dad.

Wait a minute, is that blood?

What?

Sweetheart, I gotta go.
I'll talk to you later.

Okay. I love you...

I think he's onto us.

So what do we do now?

Plan B.

What's plan B?

Not a what.

A who.

What the hell is this?!

Ahoy there, Don.
Don't you love it?

It's a Bon Voyage 5S playset.

The kids are gonna lose
their minds.

Doesn't it look
like an actual ship?

Yeah, well, you're gonna
have to sail it

3 feet
from the property line, Joe.

I could've sworn
there was an exemption

because of the alley
on the other side of the line.

That's not an alley.
It's my patio.

And I don't want

the business end
of the "Titanic"

veering into my yard.

Look, Don, it's gonna be great.

Your grandkids can even
come over

and play when they visit.

My grandkids are in college.

Move it!

What is that?

Run. Run!

Kind of expected
the first flying car

to be a little smaller.

It doesn't look
very aerodynamic.

Sir, are you doing okay?

Not dead.

That's a good place to start.

Do you have any neck pain
or back pain?

No. Just my leg.

I've gotta invade
your personal space

to assess you.

How did it even get here?

- Military training exercise.
- Air drop.

That's how the military gets
supplies, aids,

and everything else,
including Humvees,

to remote areas.

Except this time,
they dropped a little too soon.

Guess they need more training.

Are they gonna send someone
to pick it up?

Eventually.

I don't think he's gonna
wanna wait that long.

We got a pretty bad
tib-fib fracture.

Heart rate's 120.

Blood pressure's stable.
Breath sounds clear.

Let me get a look
at this tib-fib fracture.

Sir, can you wiggle your toes
for me?

Are you wiggling your toes?

I'm tryin'.

We gotta get this load
off of him.

Yeah.

- Is he gonna lose his leg?
- Go away, Joe!

This thing
probably weighs 3, 4 tons.

Maybe we could get our airbags,
slide 'em underneath,

lift it up,
and you guys can pull him out.

This angle, it's gonna be hard
to get full contact.

I don't think
we could get enough lift.

Not sure we need to.

We can get him out
the way he came in.

The parachute.

Ladder going up.

Okay, stop right there.

All right, let's attach it
to the winch.

This soil seems pretty soft.

We may only have
one chance at this, Chim.

Ready to pull him out?

Ready when you are, Cap.

Take it up!

Look out!
It's coming down!

Go!

Okay.

Let's get this leg stabilized
and get you to the hospital.

I can't believe it.

I think that SS "Minnow"
saved my life.

Told you it was gonna be great.

Don't worry, Don.
We'll rebuild.

Anchor it 3 feet
from the property line, Joe.

No, no, no, no.
3 inches.

Those are too short.

Why am I helping you again?

You are the one
that showed up unannounced.

Yeah, 'cause I'm too afraid
to go home.

Albert was supposed
to let me know

when the coast is clear,

but he hasn't.

And now he's not answering
my texts.

I wouldn't text you back either.

I mean, it's your neighbor.

Just stop hiding

and talk to her like a grown-up.

Fine.

But I was there first.

Okay, sleep mask, ear plugs,
some time-release melatonin,

and, if all else fails, booze.

Everything you need
to get a good night's rest

when you're next-door
to a crying baby.

Are you sure this isn't
a little excessive?

I mean,
we're just having a baby.

We're not launching a campaign
of shock and awe.

Well, they say good fences
make good neighbors,

but a gift basket
never hurt anyone.

You think it'll work?

Well, if nothing else,

we'll get to know our neighbors.

Careful what you wish for.

You can't get me!

She was drunk as a skunk,

trying to push
the whole machine out the door.

Talking about, "It's rigged."

And nobody tried to stop her?

The security guards were
all too afraid

of going viral
for roughing up a granny.

Ooh!
That is wild.

Girl, that is Tuesday.

- You miss it.
- Yeah.

I loved it.

Folks getting to slip off
their regular lives

and, for a few days,
be anybody they wanted to be.

And I was part of the fantasy.

Fast Hands Toni.

Best blackjack dealer
on the strip.

Nobody could put anything
past me.

I still can't believe
you gave it all up, Ma.

I mean, we could barely get you
to leave Nevada

long enough for our wedding.

Times change.

Things are different now.

Made it easier to leave.

Well, if you looking
for a new career,

may I suggest the culinary arts?

Because those ribs are falling
off the bone.

Or you could move in here

and just cook for us
all the time.

Let's not get crazy.

- May I?
- I'll help.

Hen, why don't you take Athena
into the living room,

and I'll start the coffee.

I'm sorry
Bobby couldn't make it.

- Everything all right?
- Yeah.

He was just needed elsewhere.

Dinner was great, Bobby.

You should come visit
more often.

And you should do your homework.

I can do it tomorrow morning.

Or not.

He's right.
Dinner was great, truly.

Please thank Athena

for forcing you
to bring it over.

She didn't force me.

But she did think
maybe you could use

someone to talk to.

I'm fine, really.

And she mentioned
your new hobby.

- What?
- Your new hobby.

It's not...

You know, it's really
just a way to pass the time,

I mean, considering how much
I have of it lately.

But, you know, there is
something weird going on

across the street.

You mean the guy?
The guy with the women?

With all the women young enough
to be his daughters?

There's so much foot traffic.

I mean, younger women,
older women, a few men,

in and out all the time
every day.

I've seen some of 'em
with bruises

and a couple of them
have bandages.

I think she just gave him money.

What?
Let me see that.

So what do you think?

What, personal injury attorney?

Underground boxing instructor?

Still doesn't justify
all the trash.

The trash?
What about the trash?

She's spoiling them rotten.

She's their grandmother.

I think that's
her contractual obligation.

Athena.

I walked into the kitchen
yesterday,

and she was squirting
whipped cream into their mouths

like they were baby birds.

All right, well,
the unnecessary sugar aside,

has it really been that bad

having her back in town?

Honestly, it's been kinda nice.

But don't you dare tell anyone
I said that.

I'm gonna go
check on the coffee.

She had her hand inside a man?

Fast Hands Hen.

Soon to be Dr. Fast Hands Hen.

Guess I know
where she got that now.

But medical school.

You okay with that?

I mean, you guys have
a good, stable life here.

You don't worry
that it might be a mistake?

Why would I?

Isn't Henrietta
a little too old?

No, I don't think so.

And the program she's in
is accelerated.

In just a few years...

You look like you just got
run over.

By a bulldozer.

Hello?
Michael?

Turn it off! Turn it off!

Ooh, she definitely
wasn't ready to leave.

You see the way he kept trying
to move her to the door?

He wanted her gone.

What is happening right here?

I think Michael's
onto something here.

Yep.

- Something where?
- There.

Is this about the guy
with the trash again?

- Yeah.
- Michael, we talked about this.

It's just too much trash!

Everyone has too much trash.

We're all getting
our lives delivered.

The other day, you got a box
the size of a toaster

with dental floss in it.

It's not just that.
This guy lives alone.

All manner of folks come in
perfectly fine,

they leave battered and bruised,

so whatever's going on
over there isn't innocent.

And it probably isn't legal.

Maybe all that trash
is him dumping the evidence.

I wish there was a way to see
what was inside of those bags.

Could always look
in the dumpster.

Great idea.
Do you know where they are?

Right there,
next to the building.

And I don't think
they're locked.

Okay, okay, okay.
Give me a second.

Give me a second.

Okay, Michael, you stay here.

Keep an eye on our shady friend.

We're gonna need
some surgical gloves.

If he decides to go

on another trash run,
you call me.

Got it.

Let's go.

- David!
- What?

This is insane.

It was your idea.

Okay, who's going in?

All right, fine.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Isn't this a crime?

Looking through people's trash?

It's unclear.

Once a person throws away
their trash,

they lose any expectation
of privacy,

but then again, this is
a privately-owned dumpster,

so...

So you guys do
this sort of thing a lot?

No.

Michael did help me
break into a bank vault once.

No.

Come on, Bobby.

I got it...

- What?
- Lost my phone!

Bobby Nash.
Sorry I missed your call.

David.

Pick up the phone, man.

Hey, Michael tried to call us.

Maybe we should call off
the search.

I think we found
what we were looking for.

Surgical supplies. Used.

- Michael.
- Bobby.

You gotta get out of there.

He's coming downstairs
with more trash.

We gotta go!

He's coming out!
He's coming out!

Michael, we're on our way back.

It looks like he's operating

some sort of illegal surgical
suite out of his apartment.

Michael?
You there?

- Michael.
- Michael.

Michael?

What the hell is he doing?

Breaking and entering?

What's going on?

Help.
Please.

9-1-1.
What's your emergency?

There's a woman. She's hurt.
She's bleeding pretty badly.

We're over
at the Brosnan Lofts...

Easy.

You took a pretty good hit
to the head.

That is nothing

compared to what I'm gonna do
to you three...

amateur detectives.

Where's my husband?

Bobby's at our place with Harry.

And why do you smell like trash?

Okay.

Is the woman okay?

What woman?

The woman that was on the table.

She was right here.

There wasn't any woman
when I got here.

There wasn't anybody at all.
Just you, unconscious.

How did you know I was here?

We saw you
through the telescope.

But there was a woman here.

And she was not okay.

She looked dead,
and she asked me for my help.

They're checking all
the cameras out on the street.

Do you remember
what she looked like?

Yeah, brunette,
shoulder-length hair,

medium build.

- Martinez.
- Yes, Sergeant.

God, she looked half-dead.

She was so pale.
I thought she was dead.

- And she was injured?
- Yes.

She had two blood spots
on her belly.

It's just... the front
of her gown was just soaked.

Okay, give me a minute.

You took a pretty good hit,

so we should get you
to the hospital,

get some scans done.

No. I gotta get home.

Harry's probably terrified.

That was so cool!

Nope.
You gotta stay awake.

I think you may have
a concussion.

Why did I have to fall
in love with a brain surgeon?

Anything from Athena?

No, nothing yet.

Checked all the cameras.
No sign of the woman.

Just our fake doctor leaving
the building with a bag.

You don't think
she was in that bag, do you?

Harry.

You don't, do you?

Athena said it was
a pretty small bag.

Good.

There was no bag.

The woman.

I saw her clothes and her shoes,

but there wasn't any bag.

Well, not all women
carry handbags.

Right, right,
but she didn't have anything.

Not a wallet or a phone.
Just a keychain.

But no one saw her
leave the building.

Because she lives
in the building.

Check every apartment
in this building.

Our victim's in here somewhere.

Does a woman live here?

LAPD. Open up.

About 5'3"...

Yes, Sergeant.

Ma'am, LAPD.

Hello.
Anyone in there?

This is it!

- All clear.
- Kitchen is clear.

David! This way.

Pulse is steady.

My best guess is, she's down
about a liter and a half.

I'm applying pressure dressing.

Let's bolus her with fluids
and get her out of here stat.

26 years old.
Lost about a liter of blood.

Visceral lacerations
to her upper and lower abdomen.

You got her.

We got her.

Hey, hey, hey.

Whatever you're mad about,

I'm pretty sure
it's not the mugs' fault.

My mother.

Yeah.

Yeah, we should talk about her.

That woman turns the world
upside down wherever she goes.

And we just have to hold
our collective breath

and wait for the storm to pass.

Hopefully it heads back
to Nevada soon.

Have you talked to her
about why she's here?

I think there's something
she isn't telling us.

Karen, my mother's not somebody
that holds back.

"Just because you love somebody

don't mean you gotta
get married, Henrietta."

"Are you sure
you're strong enough

to be running in them buildings
after sick folk?"

"Don't you think

Henrietta's a little too old
for medical school?"

You heard that.

I'm not sure what's worse,
Karen.

That she doesn't believe in me,

or that she thinks
she has the right to judge.

She's just worried

you're taking on
too much responsibility.

From the woman who doesn't even
know the meaning of the word?

Well, I think
with your dad gone,

she just probably felt like
she had a lot to make up for.

That's what I thought this was.

Her moving back.

These past few days,
I really, really felt

like we were fixing

what was broken between us.

And now?

It just feels like
another scar, Karen.

They caught your neighbor

in San Diego this morning.

- Boom.
- Dr. James Lindorff.

Or at least he used to be
a doctor in Miami.

Made more than a few mistakes.
Took his license from him.

So he moved out here
about a year ago.

Started an underground clinic.

So he's been doing
surgeries here for a year?

Not quite.
He started out pretty simple.

Botox, filler,
the occasional chemical peel.

But then he got
greedy and sloppy.

More than sloppy.
He almost killed that woman.

Yeah, but you got to her
in time.

Thanks to some excellent
detective work.

That we would never,
ever do again.

I see some blueprints.

Did the HOA president
approve himself a new balcony?

See, there you go.

No, David's friend is trying

to convert her garage
into her grandmother's suite.

She's getting pushback
from the city,

and I told her
I'd take a look at it

to see if I can help.

Sounds perfect for you.

It was either that or become
full-time amateur detectives.

- Wait a minute.
- Let me be clear.

I do not wanna work
with you again.

- That's cold.
- You sure?

Hi! Hi.

Did you just try to call me?

Have you talked to your mom?

Not since the other night.
Why?

We saw her by the park.

We wanted to say hi,
but she was sleeping.

Mom said not to bother her.

Why don't you and Nia
go wash up?

Okay.

She was sleeping?

Where?

Hen, I was just...

Don't lie to me, Ma.

Can I come in?

Ma, you've been living
in your car this whole time?

Why didn't you tell me?

I didn't know how.

"Hey, Henrietta,

guess who lost their job
and got evicted."

Ma, it's a pandemic.

It's not your fault.

I'm 64 years old and dead broke.

Feels like it might be my fault.

And I didn't want you
to judge me.

You didn't want me to judge you?

When have I ever judged you?

You want that list
in chronological order

or order of importance?

Or how 'bout we just go
with the most recent?

That I'm too old
for med school, Ma?

No!

No, honey.
It's not like that.

Then what?

You've...

always been different.

Serious. Focused.

Anything you wanted,
you went after till you got it.

That takes a kind of dedication
I ain't never had.

I've always been...

a little jealous of that.

But so proud.

I look at the amazing life
you've made for yourself

and I'm in awe.

You've built something,
Henrietta,

and I...

I just don't want you
to lose it.

I don't want you to...

What, Ma, to end up like you?

I know I'm not the most
practical person in the world.

I get it from my mama,

who got it
from her mama before her.

We live for today

'cause tomorrow's not promised.

But it turns out
sometimes tomorrow shows up

and bites you in the ass.

I'ma be okay.

'Cause I'm a fighter.

Like my mama.

I'm not sure
you get that from me.

Your father always...

He wasn't there, Ma.
You were.

I tried.

I know...

I didn't always succeed, but...

I really did try.

Remember that time

I was about nine years old

and I told you I didn't feel
like going to school?

And you said, "You don't
have to go to school,

but you have to learn something
every day."

So we went to the library.

And then we went to the park
for a picnic.

I think you read
three books that day.

All because
that little Forrester girl

was picking on you.

How'd you know that, Ma?
I didn't tell you.

I'm your mama.

I'm glad you are.

Me too.

Our neighbors are
often our best teachers.

They teach us to find joy
in turbulent times.

Sometimes,
they're where we learn

compassion and empathy.

Being a good neighbor
means mastering the arts

of selflessness and compromise.

Is Grammy gonna live
with us now?

Yes, baby.
Grammy's moving in.

Yay!

Our neighbors help us
define and redefine

our concept of family.

Buck, hey.

Hi.

Look, I realize we haven't
talked since our date,

and I know it was kinda awkward.

Yeah, it was terrible.

Yeah.

Listen, I think you're great.

And we live
in the same building,

which could be totally weird,
but it shouldn't.

No, it absolutely shouldn't.

So here.

Chocolate cheesecake.

Welcome to the neighborhood.

Thank you for everything.

I... I'm so happy right now,

and I weirdly owe it all to you.

It's not every day a bad date
introduces you to a great guy.

I'm sorry, a what now?

Hey, Veronica, I think
you're out of conditioner.
