Original subtitles

Tyrell thought maybe you would like

to take his place on the food truck.

I'm interested.

Previously on "A Million Little Things"...

Mr. Cutler fired me.

He said if I couldn't control my talent,

then he would hire someone who could.

You were the only good thing about this last year.

You were for me, too.

Hey, maybe we could do dinner sometime with Theo,

whenever you're ready to introduce him to Anna.

I don't think that's gonna be happening anytime soon.

You guys have a great dinner.

Eddie, wait.

Dr. Jessica said I have to let go

of the things I can't control and try to forgive myself.

She also said that I have to stop being the person

that starts every sentence with "Dr. Jessica said."

Your dad has been having some memory problems.

I might have maybe forgotten it was her birthday.

I think you need to get your dad checked out.

See that curb over there?

That's where I picked you up after you were born.

In my Continental Coupe.

Worked my butt off to make sure I brought you home in style.

'Course we didn't have baby seats in those days.

Your mom just sat in the back

and held you in her arms the whole way home.

It's a wonder Generation X even exists.

January 17, 1978.

Dad, my birthday's January 15th.

And we took you home from the hospital exactly two days later.

I get it. I get it. You remember all the details.

Which is why I didn't need to pass that cognitive test

to tell me I am perfectly fine.

You passed with a 7 out of 10.

If I brought home 70% on a test in high school

you would have grounded me for a week.

Besides, the doctor says we won't know anything for sure

until we get the MRI.

I'm telling you right now, I'm not getting an MRI.

- But, Pop... - Just give me the parking ticket.

I thought I had it.

Maybe we need to be worried about your memory issues.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, buddy.

Back it up.

Sorry, my son seems to have forgotten

where he put our ticket.

If you don't have your ticket, you gotta pay for the full day.

$20.

We were only here for 45 minutes.

That's $2, and even that's robbery.

I'm sorry, sir, but if you don't have your ticket...

Call my doctor. He'll tell you.

...it'll be $20.

Let me speak to your supervisor.

Okay, I'll go get him.

20 bucks.

Hey, I got it, Pop.

Don't you dare give him that money.

I'm telling you,

if you don't open your stupid gate right now...

Dad.

...I'm gonna drive right through it.

Oh, no.

Dad, what are you doing?!

Hey, good thing you saved us 20 bucks, Pop.

We can put it towards $500 worth of tires.

Oh.

Here it is.

- Synced and corrected by synk - - www.addic7ed.com -

Hey, beautiful. I'm home.

Finally.

What took you so long?

Uh, traffic on Beacon was terrible.

Mm. God, you were killing me with your texts today.

Meetra kept asking me why I was blushing.

Are we... Are we...

- Are we good? - Yeah.

It's Wednesday. Eddie and Theo left for dinner 10 minutes ago.

You know how Theo loves his all-you-can-eat breadsticks.

What about the couch?

We do some of our best work there.

Yeah, we sure do.

We're back!

Ah, T. Hey!

Uh...

That... Th... Th... That was fast.

Yeah, we decided to just get takeout

and keep working on our miniature skate park.

Hey, I'll be right back. I can't build on a full bladder.

Greta, I got you extra spicy.

That's your favorite, right?

Sure is.

Well, prepare to get messy.

Already was.

Oh...

I'm interrupting.

We just thought we had a little more time.

I am so sorry.

Should we go?

- Yes. - No.

No, it's... it's fine.

I have been coming over here a lot lately, haven't I?

Just the last five nights.

Oh, God.

I'm the house guest that never leaves.

You're going through a tough time with Anna,

and the breakup...

Look, you're welcome here anytime.

Right, Greta?

Of course, yeah. Right.

Just maybe not all the time.

So are we using the instructions,

or are we going rogue this time?

Actually, I am gonna take my mac 'n cheese to go.

Are you sure?

Yeah.

Mov'n is going into surge pricing, I gotta take advantage.

- Love you, pal. - Okay.

Tomorrow night, then?

Uh, actually, you know what? Let's just play that by ear.

Okay. Bye, Dad.

So, how are you at Legos?

I'll get us set up.

Oh. Ah.

Morning sickness is back, huh?

I mean, um, uh, hyperemesis gravidarum,

which is strangely not a Harry Potter spell.

No, but it is a curse.

I totally duped myself into thinking I was getting better

over the last few weeks, and then this morning?

- Boom. - I'm so sorry.

I tell you what... I'll go to the store,

I'll get you whatever you want

as soon as I get some of this gravidarum cleaned up

off the floor here.

Oh, boy! Never mind.

Colin... he's gonna do the job for us,

and that's gonna give me some hyperemesis gravidarum.

Oh, you poor thing.

Maybe that's something you can discuss today

in your therapy session with Dr. Jessica

and not with me...

right now.

Know your audience. Got it. Check.

I'm sorry.

All I can keep down is bubbly water and Ensure,

and of course this is happening

when I'm trying to bank as many episodes as I can at work.

How many episodes does your boss expect you to bank?

I don't know, but based on the fact

that Mr. Cutler's golden boy, "Colton Cutler,"

hasn't even acknowledged my pregnancy,

I'm guessing he and his dad want me to be off the air

for as short a time as possible.

Aaand rather than ask him outright,

you're just gonna wing it?

Yep.

I'm happy to avoid talking to him altogether.

And not just because his natural musk makes me ill.

You know I love it when you make fun of anybody, really,

so I hesitate to put this out there, but

I did meet him, and he seemed harmless enough.

Don't fall for it.

He acts all nice, but he has had it in for me ever since he said

that he thinks that "cancel culture is ruining our country,"

and I said, "That is grossly oversimplifying

a complex issue."

If I remember correctly, you actually called him a simpleton.

Oh, yeah.

I gotta go.

- Oh, road dog. - Oh, God, yes.

Thank you. You're the best.

Please tell Dr. Jessica I said that

to make up for all the horrible things that I've done to you.

- Will do. - Okay.

Mm... Ooh.

What?

Did you brush your teeth today?

Yes.

Mnh.

Which is bad? That's bad?

It's just... I can smell your toothpaste from here,

so I'm gonna go.

Love you, too.

Wow. If she had smelled the everything bagel I had

before I brushed, you would've gotten seconds.

That's on me.

Oh, what do we have here?

Those are dog biscuits!

Not bad.

It comes free with any sandwich.

Andyou get a sandwich?

Well, Sophie and I have been parking the truck

down by this new dog park in Roxbury.

Baby, business has been crazy.

That's a rough neighborhood, isn't it?

Yeah, it's rough, and now "ruff"!

Never been more in love with you.

You better be talking to your wife.

Don't worry, Pop. She's right here.

When's my car gonna be ready?

It's been three days.

You're talking about vintage white wall tires.

It might take a minute to track 'em down.

Oh. I forgot to tell you. The... The garage called.

His tires are in.

What'd you say?

No, no, no. That... That was Gina.

She was just... Just letting me know

that she had heard from the garage today.

They were saying that your tires were on backorder.

Could take a couple of weeks.

A couple of weeks?!

I don't have any food in the house.

I'll tell you what, I'm gonna come by in a bit,

take you to the store.

Fine. Don't keep me waiting.

Okay, bye.

You wanna tell me why you're lying to your father?

I don't think it's safe for him to be driving right now.

At least not until he's had that MRI

and we know exactly what's going on with him.

You know, I-I was talking to Delilah,

and she was saying with her dad's dementia, she waited too long,

until he accidentally ran a red light,

came this close to hitting a school bus.

God forbid that my dad hurt himself or anybody else.

No, I get it.

And I think you need to have an honest conversation with him

- about that. - I can't.

You... You know how some kids find their dad's Playboys

hidden under his bed?

My dad hid his own magazines, too,

except they were called Car and Driver.

He didn't want me and Omar bending the pages.

I'm gonna need some hardcore proof

before I even think about dropping that bomb.

My compliments to the chef, though.

Mm.

Who's married to a man who eats dog biscuits.

? Regina's making pastrami sammies ?

? They're my all-time favorite kind ?

? All that salty cured meat! ?

? Ooh, it's sublime!

? Regina's pastramiiii!

? Don't know what rhymes with pastrami! ?

? Gotta get some pastramiiii! ?

? It's just diviiiine!

Ow!

Thank you.

All right, I hate to break up the jam sesh,

but these people gotta eat.

Coming, boss!

Thank you.

All right.

No, no.

Half's yours.

No, not...

Just take it.

Thank you.

- I'll see you again tomorrow? - You know it.

Thanks, Soph.

Good morning.

Maggie.

Hi.

So, our favorite person, "Colton Cutler,"

wants to see you. It seems serious.

He's wearing even more cologne than usual.

Oh, great.

I guess he wanted to be extra fragrant

for the maternity leave talk we've been avoiding. Ohh.

Right. Okay, um, keep me posted?

Yeah.

Maggie, come on in.

How you feeling?

Good. Great.

How far along are you now, uh, seven months?

Uh...

more like, um, seven and a half.

Great.

Great.

Well, I wanted to...

Yeah, finally discuss the baby elephant in the room.

...give you this.

Oh.

W...

You didn't have to do that.

This is so...

Is this a soda machine?

I heard you telling Claudia you can only keep down bubbly water.

So, more a gift for you than baby.

Wow.

That is so nice.

Yeah, what is it you wanted to discuss?

Uh, the baby elephant?

Oh, right. Um...

yeah, I wanted to find out how many episodes

you wanted me to bank before you-know-who arrives.

Yeah, uh, let me think about that and I'll get back to you.

Soon.

Okay. Wow.

- You got that? - Yeah.

Okay.

Oh, there's little flavor packets

in case you want some citrus essence.

I-I read that that can help with the nausea.

Yeah, it really does.

Thank you, Colton Cutler.

Have a good show! Yeah.

Hey, uh, is Sophie around?

She went to the store. Can I help you with something?

I figured out what rhymes with pastrami...

The second best deli meat, salami.

And origami.

But those lyrics would be a bit weird without context.

Uh, yeah, I'll... I'll be sure to tell her.

- Okay. Thanks. - Yeah.

Uh, she's been there for me in such an amazing way

through my final rounds of chemo and losing my dad,

and I'm trying to help Maggie

through this pregnancy,

but it just feels like I'm stepping on booby traps.

There's a lactation joke in there somewhere,

I just... I-I can't summon it.

Haha! 10 points for me.

Okay, Gary, we do not keep score.

We don't.

I do.

Pregnancy, especially first pregnancies,

can be a huge identity shift.

I can't believe I don't know this. Are you a parent?

You pay me way too much per hour to talk about myself.

Damn.

- You're good. - Mm-hmm.

Okay, well, it sounds like Maggie's spiraling a bit

and maybe taking it out on her safe person?

Mm-hmm.

And supporting her might look less like trying to make it okay

and more like encouraging her through the rough parts.

How do I do that?

One way could be reminding her of who she is.

Her strength, her power.

Oh. Hm. Mm-hmm.

Okay, well, looks like my next client is here.

What do you think... Should I tell them?

Tell them what?

That I'm your favorite.

Hey, bro.

Hey. Greta. Come on in.

What are you doing here?

Oh, I-I do house calls now.

I heard somebody at this residence

would like a dolphin tattooed on their lower back?

I think that might clash with my monarch butterfly,

but, uh, since you came all this way,

the least I can do is offer you a lemonade.

Sure.

And while I drink it, I will apologize for last night.

Oh, it's okay.

You know, I'm always happy to take Theo

for more than my allotted time if you two ever want to be alone.

Thanks, but what I said, it... it wasn't cool.

Did Katherine guilt-trip you into coming over here?

Oh, my God, she totally guilt-tripped me.

The key in that situation is to avoid all eye contact.

The second you look her in the eye, she owns you.

Excellent tip.

It doesn't change the fact that she's right.

I think I've been hiding out over at you guys' place

because, well, I'm not very good at being alone.

Well, who says you have to be alone?

I mean, Bex down at Strobe Lights is a huge Red Ferns fan.

Mm.

No fans.

No, I want someone to like me for who I am now.

Not some guy I used to be.

But check this out.

Oh, I'm intrigued.

What do you think?

A dating profile.

Too soon?

Uh, I don't know. I'm the wrong person to ask.

I mean, Julia and I were separated for like

five minutes when Katherine walked into my gin joint.

And that got a little sticky.

Yeah, but you guys make it look so easy now.

That's what I want... Something simple.

Without all the drama and involuntary manslaughter.

But I just don't really know what I'm doing here.

I mean, "Recently divorced Mov'n driver

with a substance abuse problem."

Hey. "Five star recently divorced"

Mov'n driver with a substance abuse problem."

I just don't know if I'm really what women are looking for.

Well, lucky for you, your ex-wife's girlfriend

knows exactly what women are looking for.

All right, give me this.

Did you make a grocery list?

I don't need one.

I'm on the seafood diet.

I see food and I eat it.

Glad you still remembered that joke.

- Hmm? - Hmm?

Nothing.

Hey, son, I'm gonna need you to make a right at the next corner.

I thought we were going to the grocery store.

We are, but first I gotta talk to my guy, Larry.

Larry? Who's Larry?

He's a Lexus dealer. He's about to sell me my new car.

A new car?

Wh... What are you talking about, Dad?

I'm tired of waiting on that old junker to come out of the shop.

I got a credit score in the 800s,

a pension I can barely spend, and exactly zero grandkids.

I'm buying a car.

Do you know that Joseph once met Joni Mitchell?

Oh, yeah?

Yeah, she was at some outdoor cafe

and he played one of her songs for her on his harmonica.

Wow, cool.

Almost too cool.

What do you mean?

Just, maybe take what he says with a grain of salt.

You've been spending a lot of time with him,

but we don't really know him all that well.

So, do you want...

What, you want me to stop playing with him?

I know I said you guys could busk that first day,

but now I need you to focus on working on the truck.

Yeah, okay. Yeah, of course. You're right.

Thank you.

Who would play you in the biopic of your life?

Jake Gyllenhaal.

Wow, you had that at the ready.

"Read the Book" or "Seen the Movie"?

"Read the Book."

Seriously?

I've never seen you read anything

besides the back of a cereal box.

"Seen the Movie."

All right, questions are done,

now we just need a profile pic.

I actually got a couple of cute ones of you and Theo the other night.

Um.

What about this?

I mean, it's nice. It's handsome.

But you can't see the chair.

So?

So...

I mean, I don't want her showing up to our first date

seeing that I'm in a chair

and thinking I'm, like, catfishing her or something.

Oh, wow.

I-I-I never thought of that.

Well, I have to.

Anyone who shows up and has a problem with your chair,

they'll have canceled themselves in the first five seconds.

I am pretty comfortable with myself in this thing,

but waiting to see if she is, too...

it sort of sounds like torture.

On the other hand, you know,

say I do put the chair in the picture

and no one even gives me a chance.

Everyone on this app is hiding who they really are.

I mean, that's why they make padded bras.

But you can do whatever you want here.

I mean, it's totally your call.

Do you have one with me in the chair?

Right here.

Let's go with that one.

If it's a dealbreaker, they swipe left and move on.

You got it.

I love her, but it's starting to feel like

maybe I'm more committed to us than she is.

Mm-hmm.

It's so bad, I'm too embarrassed to talk to my friends about it,

but she still doesn't seem to care...

What took you so long?

I had to go to the pharmacy to get them.

I thought you said they didn't work anyway?

They don't, but it's worse without them.

Okay.

Well, Roger, I think the question here

is not why your girlfriend is bringing home...

peanuts...

...when...

she knows that it could send you

into anaphylactic shock,

but how you'll respond when she arrives home with the...

With the...

peanu...

Well, how do you think I should respond?

You're...

- You're okay. - Ugh.

Dr. Bloom?

A-Are you there?

Uh.

Uh, h-hi... Uh. Hi. Sorry.

Sorry Dr. Bloom had to, uh, step out for just a... A moment.

My name is... is Gary.

Um.

M...

Maybe I-I can help you. Maybe.

At this point, I'm at a total loss.

I have so much invested. I don't know what to do.

Whoa. Uh, okay, Roger, well, remember, I'm just a guy...

I am not a therapist,

but if she is knowingly bringing something

that can kill you into the home?

Rodge. Ya gotta bounce.

Ugh. Bounce?

You really think so?

Without question, my dude.

Oh, man. Thank you, Gary. And you're so right.

I-I gotta break up with her, 'cause it's insane, right?

Absolutely. Certifiably cray.

Oh, no.

- All right. Uh. Good luck to Roger. - I gotta get back.

Uh, now what do we do? We take, like, a break?

Oh... You know what?

Let's take... Let's take one more call.

Who... Who do we got waiting?

We have Sarah from Bayview.

Claudia!

Sarah from Bayview.

Hope this isn't about peanuts.

So much bare skin.

I'm like da Vinci looking at a blank canvas.

Oh, look at this. I have a match.

Ooh, very pretty.

Oh, and judging by the Nat King Cole poster,

she's got good taste in music,

so she's probably never heard of the Red Ferns.

Hey, we had a few hits, okay?

Wow.

She liked the photo of me in the wheelchair.

- There you go. - Okay.

So what do I do now?

You send her a picture of what you're packing.

- Seriously? - No.

No one needs to see what you're packing,

unless your name is Marie Kondo, and in that case,

like, congratulations on sparking a movement.

Oh, she wants to meet this afternoon.

Ooh. Well, my work here is done.

What's going on under the hood?

416 horsepower, with a twin turbo V6 engine.

Look at the sunroof.

More like a moon-stars-and-sun-roof

with everything you can see out of it.

And because of the glass roof's unique design,

it provides a larger opening and more interior headroom

than a conventional roof.

Well, I'm sold.

That's great. Let's go get started on the paperwork.

Hey, Larry. Larry?

You mind giving my dad and I a minute?

Of course.

Dad, you are not buying a car today.

Oh, really?

And why is that?

'Cause the truth is...

My car's been ready since 9:00 a.m.?

You knew?

After I got off the phone with you,

I called the garage to complain about why it was taking so long.

Yeah, of course you did.

You wanna tell me why you lied to me?

'Cause I don't want you driving.

Not until we get that MRI.

I'm telling you, there's nothing wrong with me.

Yeah, tell that to the parking lot guy

who watched you blow not one, not two, but all four tires.

The only reason I forgot my car was in reverse

was because that guy was being a complete ass.

I've been driving for 60 years

and haven't had so much as a speeding ticket.

I'm sorry, Pop.

It is too risky. What if you hurt yourself... Or someone else?

Tell you what... Give me a road test.

What? You mean, like...

Let's go get my car and we'll do a road test.

If I so much as roll a stop sign,

I'll give you my keys,

but if I don't make any mistakes, you cease and desist.

So, do we have a deal?

We have a deal.

I don't know, Janet.

I mean, maybe this is him

taking it out on his safe person,

which is what my therapist would say...

Shout out Dr. Jessica Bruno! 'Sup?

But I feel like this is something else.

So, uh, I'm gonna say ya gotta bounce.

And I'm proud to announce that, uh, it is my turn to bounce,

because we are all back in the room

with an actual professional, Dr. Bloom!

Okay. Sorry, everyone.

I had to step away, but I am back.

We have Allison from Newton.

- Hi, Dr. Bloom. Big fan. - Aww, thank you.

But this is actually more of a Gary question.

Okay.

Dr. Bloom?

Hello?

Here he comes.

Uh.

Uh... hi.

It's Gare on the Air.

The zucchinis were iffy,

so we're just sticking with bell pepper.

Uh, Soph, did you empty the cash into the safe already?

Uh, no. I didn't think I was supposed to until after the dinner rush.

Yeah, that's right. You're not.

Eh...

Oh, my God. We've been robbed.

So, I just counted it, so I know there's $1,236.

And was the drawer locked?

No, but one of us was on the truck the entire time.

Uh, actually, I did leave.

You did?

Morgan was dropping off flyers for our show,

and I put them in my car.

Unfortunately, it doesn't take long,

especially if you have someone casing your truck.

Any idea who could've taken it?

Actually, there was someone hanging around here earlier.

Well, yeah, but that was this morning.

I mean, it could've been anybody.

Okay. Do you have security video?

No.

Look, the truth is, without video,

we're probably not gonna catch whoever took your money.

But if I were you...

...I'd find another neighborhood to park your truck.

Will do.

I'll bring the report by later for your insurance company.

Thank you.

So, how'd you get to Boston?

Uh, my boyfriend and I had a very mature and boring breakup.

Mm. I wanted a change,

and my company has offices in Boston and Lebanon.

I'm allergic to pistachios, so here I am.

Okay.

First move since college.

Wow. And where did you go to school?

The Bay Area.

So, Stanford or Berkeley?

Well, both, actually.

I-I got my undergrad and masters at Stanford,

and then my PhD at Berkeley.

Wow. That is impressive.

Which is why I say "The Bay Area."

It actually freaks a lot of guys out.

And by guys, I obviously mean little bitches.

Well, in their defense,

I can see how meeting someone beautiful and smart

could be a little terrifying.

Where did you go to school?

Uh, I did a few semesters at Sanborn College,

then my band hit it kind of big.

Oh. We went on tour, and then for the next decade,

I studied the effects of alcohol on brain chemistry.

- Mm. - Got an honorary PhD in that.

Impressive.

And what do you do now?

I'm a driver for Mov'n.

And how does that work with your chair?

Oh, well, I have a retrofitted mini van.

It has room for four passengers.

My ex-boyfriend actually had one of those big conversion vans,

you know, with the chair lift on the side.

Oh, yeah?

Yeah, got surprisingly great gas mileage.

Huh.

Yeah. I need to look into that.

Whoa.

Two flavor cartridges?

Now, this... this thing's got all the bells and whistles.

Yeah, well, it's probably gonna be a parting gift

once Colton Cutler's Daddy hears about that show.

Maggie.

Listen, that was, uh, awesome.

Gary.

Gare on the Air?

Loved it.

Huh. Thanks.

Well, that's... that's gotta be good, right?

- Gare on the Air... - No.

That is not good. That is so annoying.

I mean, you take over my show

and make a total joke out of it, and what? Now he likes it?

That guy has never said one complimentary thing

about my show before, ever.

Hey, I'm so sorry.

I-I didn't mean to make a joke of your show.

- No. - I-I just... I didn't know what to do.

No, I know... I know you didn't,

and I know that I am being, as you said, "certifiably cray,"

but...

what if I never get back to myself?

What if... What if I'm sick all the way until I give birth?

What if I can't bank enough episodes?

I-I just feel... I feel so out of control.

What if I have to step away

and I lose everything that I've worked so hard for?

Why don't you take a look at that poster out there?

Not only are you smoking hot...

...but, uh, that's...

That's "In the Room with Dr. Bloom."

Guess who built that.

You did.

Please, don't forget how much power you have.

- Yeah? - Oh, yeah.

Or, maybe, instead of worrying about Colton Cutler

and his dad want you to do, you just...

You just go tell him exactly what youwant to do.

Wow.

That's not bad, Dr. Mendez.

Really?

Yeah.

- Thank you. - Yeah.

Oh. Aww.

Ooh.

Um, did you have an everything bagel today?

I did.

Okay, Mario Andretti, we can hit the road whenever you like.

I'm not even starting this car until you buckle your seat belt.

Okay.

No. I understand.

Okay. Thank you.

So, insurance can't reimburse us

because the truck was left unattended and unlocked.

Oh. I am so sorry.

I'm a little frustrated because I just told you

I needed you to focus on this job while you're here.

I know... you're right. You're right.

Look, I promise, no more busking, no more flyers.

You can even dock my pay to make up for it.

No. That's... That's not necessary.

We'll just do better moving forward, okay?

It is creepy that someone was in here.

I know.

Which I have to say, Joseph wouldn't do that.

I've been trying to give him the tips from busking all week,

and he won't take more than half.

Yeah, well...

people in desperate situations do desperate things.

Okay, no, you're way off base.

Honestly, Gina, the way you and that cop

were just automatically assuming it was him...

It's upsetting.

Listen, my heart breaks for him,

but I also need to look out for you,

and the sad truth is that many of the unhoused are on drugs...

including Joseph.

What?

I saw track marks on his arm.

No. That...

Okay, and... and even then,

that doesn't mean that he was the one that stole from us.

And you know it also doesn't make him a bad person.

If anything, we need to help him.

That is exactly why I didn't want to tell you.

I hope he gets the help that he needs, but the last thing I want

is for you to get more involved...

- Oh, my God. They're tearing it down. - Wait, Soph.

Uh, excuse me, why are... Why are you doing this?

I-I don't understand.

There's been a lot of complaints about this encampment.

Some theft, drug activity.

Okay, well, I think I was one of those complaints,

but I definitely didn't want this to happen.

It's okay. It happens all the time.

You can't just do this. I mean, these are people's things.

I mean, my friend isn't even here to get what he needs.

Look, I'm just doing my job.

Uh, excuse me. Do you know where Joseph is?

He does dialysis on Fridays,

usually gone all day.

He's at dialysis?

Mm-hmm.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God, those track marks weren't from drugs.

They're from dialysis.

Which also means that he couldn't have been here

when the money went missing.

Yeah.

Yeah, I can't watch this.

Do you think you're giving this guy enough room?

He's like a mile in front of you.

His brake lights are out.

He may get rear-ended by somebody today,

but it's not gonna be me.

Oh. It's Omar. Could be important.

Your brother can wait.

Hey, you want to take a right turn up here, Pop?

Ha!

Nice try.

It's a one-way street.

Not gonna get me that easily.

I mean, obviously, they're brave,

but when you see these guys competing in the Paralympics,

it really blows your mind.

Yeah, I should check that out.

Want another coffee?

I'm sorry. What is this?

What is what?

I mean, I think it's kinda weird that your ex was in a wheelchair

and now you're matching with me.

You have a PhD. I drive for Mov'n.

Is this some kind of fetish or something?

No. Whoa. No. That's not what this is at all.

I met my last boyfriend because

he was on a basketball team with my brother,

who was in a chair since he was 4 years old.

So, I saw your photo and I thought you were cute,

and, you know, the chair just isn't that big a deal to me.

But it seems like maybe it is a big deal to you.

Can I get you guys anything else?

I think we're good.

My God. I am so sorry.

Listen, you seem like a really nice guy,

but I'm just looking for someone

who's a little more confident in what they have to offer.

Hit me up if you ever end up figuring that out.

Hi, Maggie.

- You wanted to see me? - Yeah.

Um, I wanted to talk about my maternity leave.

I know that I asked what you were expecting,

but today, I realized what Iwant,

and that is to take some time off after my baby is born.

Okay. Uh, how much?

Uh, 10 weeks.

Well, actually...

corporate policy says you get 12,

so I think you should take all 12.

Uh, wow.

Colton, that's...

I... Between the thoughtful gift and this, that's really...

Sorry, your support means a lot.

Well, a baby is an exciting thing.

Yeah, it is.

Okay. Well, yeah, great.

All right. Then it's settled.

- Thank you. - Okay.

Wow.

Uh, so, 12 weeks... What are you gonna put in my slot?

Oh, no, no. We're gonna get a replacement therapist

to take over your show.

You know, I wasn't so sure about it,

but then hearing Gary today, it just got me excited.

I-I think the audience is gonna love having a new voice in the mix.

Wait, a-a replacement?

Oh, guest host.

No, you know, just temporarily, while... while you're out.

Although, you know, a lot of women decide

they want to stay at home rather than come back to work,

which is, of course, a perfectly viable choice.

- But I'm coming back. - Oh, yeah. No.

Of course... Of course you are.

I'm just saying, whatever you want is... is fine with us.

So...

Uh, enjoy that soda machine.

So, did I pass?

100%.

Great.

Then if you'll excuse me, I'm going inside to watch golf.

But, Dad, this isn't your house.

This... This is the apartment

you and mom lived in when I was first born.

Right.

Of course. I...

We were just talking about bringing you home

from the hospital, and I think...

I got confused.

Easy mistake.

I mean, especially with all the adrenaline, right?

And me trying to trick you earlier.

I'm... I'm sorry about that.

It's okay, Pop. You just... just give yourself a second.

Maybe I've just been making excuses.

Telling myself it's not about forgetting

where you left your car keys...

it's... it's about forgetting what the car keys are for.

I got you, Pop.

No matter what.

I'm gonna take care of you. You know that, right?

So, then, I basically accused her

of being a "chair chaser."

I'm just lucky she didn't throw her drink at me.

I mean, it's not the strangest fetish I've ever heard of.

Are you familiar with Smurf Parties?

Too familiar, sadly.

Theo's asleep.

I'm gonna be in the shower, and I want you to join me there.

- Who are you talking to? - Uh, hang on a second.

It's Eddie.

My Eddie?

I'm invested.

And why is he your Eddie?

Look, hot water's not gonna last forever.

I will be there in a moment.

Okay, then what happened?

She said she thought that I needed to be more confident

in what I have to offer.

Ugh. I officially hate anyone

who went to college in "The Bay Area."

No, she's right.

The truth is, I don't think I'm gonna find

what I'm looking for on a dating app.

Okay, where are you gonna find it?

Your father did an incredible job today

of being exactly what I needed, when I needed it.

I'm gonna need you to say that again.

I just want to... Just want to get it on record.

And, uh, I may send it to Dr. Jessica,

but that's... that's really more for her than for me.

He even came up with his own catch phrase.

Ooh. True story. "Ya gotta bounce."

Whoa.

I think someone else liked your catch phrase.

Ahh.

- Try it again. - Okay.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Ya gotta bounce.

Hey, buddy.

It's your dad here.

Well, your qualifications are exceptional,

and we'll want to give you an on-air audition,

but I can already tell you've got a great voice for radio.

Well, I really appreciate the opportunity.

It's only for 12 weeks,

but you never know.

You never do.
