At any moment,
this city could burn.

9-1-1 what's your emergency?

9-1-1 all new Mondays.

And watch other Fox shows
like 9-1-1 Lone Star,

and Special Forces on Fox.

MAN:
Honey, I'm sorry,

but there is no way
I can make it by 7:00.

Just eat without me.

Yes, I realize
it's your parents.

Tell your dad to order
the most expensive cab.

He's good at that.

Oh...

No, you did not order any...

(groans)

...sarcasm, honey,
but you realize

what time of year it is.

All of my clients waited
until the last minute

to file their taxes, again.

Of course I want to see
your parents.

Well, maybe the problem is
you insist on

inviting them to town
every year around tax day,

like you're testing me
or something.

Yes, it's true, you've been
doing it for 11 years.

Of course
I'm keeping the receipts.

That's literally my job.

What do you want me to say?

"Oh, I'm so sorry,
Mr. and Mrs. Stewart.

"My in-laws are in town,
so I won't have time

to finish your returns?"

I am not burning my practice
to the ground

after all the work
I've put into building it.

(sighs)

Yes, I'll try to get there
for dessert.

Love you.

Oh, my God!

(crying out)

Dispatch said a man
broke in after hours,

tried to burn
the office down.

LAPD's on their way,
but caller said

the victim is no longer
a threat.

Oh.
And all those banker's boxes

equal more than
a few matchboxes.

Many unhappy returns.

Why didn't the sprinklers
go off?

Somebody's quick on their feet;
avoided some serious damage.

I tried to move him,
but his skin fell off.

I didn't know what to do.

BOBBY:
Well, you did your part by

putting out the fire.

I tell you what,
let's step aside,

let my team finish from here.

Buck, check for hot spots.

- Chim, you're with me.
- Copy that.

- Pulse is weak.
- Breathing shallow.

Sir, can you hear me?
Can you tell me your name?

No response.
Probably burn shock.

EDDIE:
I'll start him on oxygen.

Pulse ox is good.
No signs of smoke inhalation.

All right.
So I can take this off?

Not unless you want to go
to the hospital, too.

Okay, office is clear.
I found this.

Looks like it belongs
to the perp.

Mason Lewis.
You know this guy?

He's a client
who's being audited.

(cries out in pain)

It's-it's gonna be okay.

We're gonna get you out of here.

Foil blanket,
then let's get him on a gurney.

Dispatch, this is Captain Nash,
118. We're wrapping up here.

Please alert
L.A. General Burn Center

- we are nine minutes out.
- He's good, Cap.

Hey, listen, if you experience
any dizziness

or lightheadedness,
get yourself to an ER.

Not today, I won't.

I still have piles
of returns to go through

to see what I can salvage.

Well, it's like they say, Cap:

only two things in this life
are inevitable.

Death and taxes.

Well, and sometimes
they go together.

Dispatch, this is 727-L-30

arriving at 3124 Glen Drive

to provide assistance
in arrest warrant.

DISPATCH:
Copy, 727-L-30.

- So, who's today's
lucky contestant?
- Dominic Dawson.

47-year-old male wanted
for defrauding

a homeless charity.

Dominic Dawson of
Dawson Dream It foundation?

Got caught buying a yacht
with the organization's money.

They're saying he's
a potential flight risk.

ATHENA:
He's in there now.

Mm. Second floor.

So let's stop talking about it.

Police. Open up.

Open up! Police!

♪

(clatter)

ANTHENA: Suspect in bathroom.
Battering ram needed.

(rummaging, soft clattering)

(soft clatter)

Police. Come out
with your hands up.

Open up the door, now.

- MAN: Don't shoot.
I'll be right out.
- (toilet flushing)

Really?

I'd give it a minute.

(sighs)

DOMINIC: Yo, there sure were
a lot of new people

showing up back there.

ATHENA:
Evidence division.

We didn't just serve
an arrest warrant.

A search warrant came with it.

Almost always does.

I would think a man such as
yourself would know that.

You mean a thief
such as myself, right?

You know, last time I checked

I was innocent
till proven guilty.

Is that why you're asking
so many innocent questions?

- I just don't like having
people in my house.
- Oh, well,

they should only be there

two, maybe three days at most.

Sooner if you tell us
where you're hiding

all that money you embezzled.

(groaning)

Sir. Dominic!

Dispatch, this is 727-L-30.

I need an RA unit
and backup unit

at Temple and Alameda, now.

Suspect is unconscious.

MADDIE: Copy that
loud and clear, 727-L-30.

Temple and Alameda.
- 've located an available unit.
- I

The 133 is en route.
They're two minutes out.

Is the suspect breathing?

Barely.

Dominic? Dominic,
can you hear me?

Dominic!

MADDIE:
Can you check for a pulse?

No carotid pulse.
Starting chest compressions.

(siren approaching)

Stay with me, Dominic.
Help is almost here.

(sirens approaching)

(exhales)

(indistinct radio chatter)

PARAMEDIC:
Let's go.

Okay, got nothing.
We got this, Officer.

- Sergeant, what happened?
- I don't know.

He just collapsed.

PARAMEDIC:
Okay, we got a pulse.
Let's move him.

All right, escort them to
the hospital and stay with him.

Wherever he goes, you go.

- Got it?
- Roger.

LIEUTENANT:
And you're certain there was

no altercation of any kind
upon arrest?

Sergeant Grant?

Did he resist?

(exhales sharply)
He gave himself up.

I put him in the car.

Did he seem nervous?
Panicky?

Not at all.

One minute,
he's chatting me up,

the next minute,
he's down for the count.

Well, it sounds like you did
everything by the book, so

now it's just about
the paperwork,

and that won't be too bad.

He had a pulse
when they took him away.

MAYNARD:
Not anymore.

We just got word
from the hospital.

Dominic Dawson is dead.

(sighs)

Remember that big math test?
I aced it.

- Hmm.
- But science is still
my favorite subject.

We made s'mores
with solar ovens.

Now we can make s'mores
every night, like we used to.

No, not every night.

Why not?

Well, funny thing
about solar ovens,

they don't work at night.

Dad, you know what I mean.

I still miss
making s'mores with you, Mom.

I'm sure she misses making them
with you, too, bud.

Dad, do you think she can
hear us when we talk to her?

Absolutely.

That's why we come here.

I wish I could hear her
talk back.

Me, too, bud.

Me, too.

Hey, do you want to go
to the store on the way back?

We can pick up some stuff
to make some s'mores.

Can we make an extra one
for Mom?

Always.

They're not suggesting you had
anything to do with it?

Of course not, but that
doesn't change the fact that

- he collapsed in the back
of my patrol car.
- Right.

- He was under my supervision.
- But, Athena,

I don't think there's anything
you or anyone

could have done
to prevent it.

I just keep replaying it
over in my head.

Yeah.

I know you want
to find an answer, but this

might be a case
where there isn't one.

The man could have just died,

and there's no rhyme
or reason to it.

There is always a reason.

Whoa, that is a lot
of ice cream.

Is Jee having a party
that I don't know about?

Broken freezer at
the grocery store equals

50% off of ice cream.

An offer that would be
criminal to refuse.

- We're never gonna eat all that.
- Mmm.

Well, think about
how much I saved.

A year's worth of ice cream
for the price of six months.

And there's no such thing
as too much ice cream.

Here, try this.
Dulce de deliciousness.

- Oh, my God.
- Right?

It's like you can taste
the cinnamon.

No. Oh, my God, this.
It's from the IRS.

Okay, so open it.

Nothing good ever comes
from the IRS.

(sighs) Not opening it doesn't
change the fact that you got it.

May I?

They're probably just trying
to verify your new address

or something.

- Or not. You're being audited.
- What?

How is that possible?

It's probably just
some random audit.

They do these things
all the time.

It's not the end of the world.
Everything's gonna be fine.

Hey.

This is another letter
from the IRS addressed to me.

MADDIE:
They want to meet
with us together.

In person.

I don't get it. Something
must have triggered it.

Maybe it's the loan
we got from your parents.

I knew we should have
never taken that money.

Uh, that's not what you said
when we deposited the check.

What about the donation we gave
during the move?

All tax-deductible
and totally legit.

Look, you're spiraling.

We both are, and I don't know

what we're freaking out about

because, obviously,
it was a simple mistake.

You know, it's not like
we intentionally meant

to do something wrong.

Maddie, it's the IRS;

they don't care about intentions.

- Ice cream.
- Oh, great.

You're supposed to be in bed.

(Maddie chuckles)

Ice cream.

Might as well let her eat some.

Could be the last time

we have a late-night snack
with our daughter

- before they haul us
off to jail.
- Shh.

Papa jail.

Okay, do you want
some ice cream?

I've been looking up
all the most common reasons

for being audited,
and nothing is ringing a bell.

Well, why don't you
call an accountant

and get an expert opinion?

Ah, we want to make sure we have
all our ducks in a row first.

- He's gonna shoot 'em down.
- Do you have any foreign
accounts?

You know, maybe something
your dad set up for you

when you were a kid.

Something my dad set up for me?

That's hilarious. Next.

You know, Chim,
I looked into it as well,

and apparently
there's a 0.6% chance

of just being
audited at random.

Lies. Nothing is random.
And nobody is helping!

Neither are you.

Look, don't beat yourself up, Chim.

I'm not great at doing
my taxes, either. No one is.

- Uh, I am.
- Seriously?

You missed his whole
superpower phase.

I actually thought about using
my newfound math skills

to file my taxes
by hand this year.

- So did you?
- No.

I-I said I thought about it.
I hired a professional.

Still not helping.

Why are you and Maddie doing

your own taxes anyway?

We're using a computer program
instead of a real person,

'cause it's cheaper.

(chuckles) Until they hit you
with the fines.

You guys think I'm a goner,
don't you?

- (alarm ringing)
- Hey, listen, Chim.

Remember, with the IRS
you can run, but you can't hide.

(solemn organ music playing)

Auntie Marie was the glue
of this family.

She left us with
countless memories

and mountains' worth of
unsolicited advice.

(laughter)

But there was
one piece of advice

that she gave to me
that I will cherish forever.

The guiding principle of life

that I will continue to live by

and pass on for generations
to come.

And that piece of advice is...

(panicked screams)

(sirens wailing)

- (indistinct shouting)
- (groans)

(indistinct chatter, groaning)

We were just getting started
when it crashed through

and landed on top of Marie.

EDDIE:
She's breathing.

Looks like this angel was
literally watching over her.

Hen, Ravi, get that driver
out of here.

Eddie, Buck, I want airbags.

Let's get this car
lifted and stabilized

before we move her.

- BUCK: All right.
- HEN: All right.

Are you in any pain?

No, not really?

Did you black out
before the crash?

I saw two parking spaces,
then there was just one.

Clearly not the one
I just drove into.

(groans)

Let's get him on a gurney.

(creaking)

- Okay, Cap, this isn't
gonna hold much longer.
- All right,

hit it on green, let's go.

Going up.

(car creaking)

BOBBY:
That's it, keep going.

I knew these heels would be
the death of me.

Well, you broke your ankle

to avoid being crushed
by a car.

- Take the win.
- BUCK: Almost there.

Okay, we're good.

BOBBY:
All right, let's get her out.
Let's move her.

Okay, on three.
One, two, three.

Hen, I'm gonna need
a hand over here.

I'm on my way.

Vitals are clear.

Obvious fracture to the fibula.

- You good?
- RAVI: Yeah.

I've got this.

She's coming to.

Ma'am, can you hear me?

Everyone came to see me?

- Ma'am, can you
tell me your name?
- Marie.

Hi, Marie, I'm Hen.
How you feeling?

Any specific pain?

I always have pain in my hip.

Backboard.

On three.
One, two, three.

There we go.

I'm sorry for your loss, ma'am.

I-I can't imagine how hard
it must have been

to lose your twin.

Sorry for my loss?
That's me.

You were in attendance
at your own funeral?

Oh, I-I was sitting
right over there.

Now, what better place to be
for your own funeral

than the front row?

It's called a living funeral.

MARIE:
Natalia planned it for me.

She's my death doula.

HEN:
Death doula?

I've only heard of
the other kind.

I prefer "end-of-life" doula.

Here I thought my job
was interesting.

You just lifted a car
off of a human being.

I'd say your job is
pretty interesting.

Hey, Buck, make some room.

Uh, let me take you this way.

All right, ma'am,
try not to move.

You may have dislocated
your hip.

Well, it happens all the time.

A symptom of my everlasting
fight with bone cancer.

Don't lose hope just yet.

This isn't about losing hope.

You see all those people there?

I haven't seen any of them
in years.

I invited them out
to this ceremony

so that I didn't have

- to see them from a casket.
- EDDIE: Hmm.

Where's the fun in that?

I guess that's one way
of throwing a family reunion.

We're all gonna die alone.

Might as well spend time
with our loved ones

while we're still living.

Uh, hey, can I
take a look at that?

I, uh, I meant your hand.

- This? It's just a scratch.
- Well, I-I specialize
in scratches.

Here, why don't you
take a seat? (exhales)

Uh, so, aside from

planning pre-death funerals,

what exactly does
an end-of-life doula do?

Well, if your job is
to prevent death,

my job is
to help people accept it.

You know, you, uh,
you might say

death and I are
old acquaintances.

Maybe even friends
for a moment.

Lucky you.
How'd you pull that off?

I died.
Just for a few minutes.

Struck by lightning.

Wow, that sounds amazing.

- (chuckles)
- (chuckles)

Would you like
to grab a coffee?

I'd love to hear more.

Uh, about your...
about your acquaintance.

Uh, yeah.
Yeah, that sounds nice.

BOBBY:
Buck, let's move.

Uh, I gotta...
I gotta go.

Here.

EDDIE: Life's gotten
really complicated,

Mom, I'm sorry.

No, we can't visit
that weekend.

Uh, Christopher's got
homecoming on Saturday,

and the weekend after that...
Ah... work.

How about April 22?
That looks free.

Dad, that's the Earth Day
field trip.

It's not on here.

It should be.

Sorry, Mom.

Apparently the Earth is
more important.

- Dad.
- How about...

this summer?

We can make a whole week
out of it.

Dad, we gotta go!

Hey, come talk to your abuela.

We're gonna be late.

Sorry, Mom, I gotta go.

(sighs)

- Dad, hurry up!
- Coming! (sighs)

We'll figure something out.

Okay? I promise.

We got time.

(indistinct conversations)

- What do you think
they're in for?
- Chim...

CHIMNEY:
Fake designer bag. I'm gonna go
with Ponzi scheme masterminds.

- Mr. and Mrs. Nicholson?
- Here.

How about her?

Concealing her beanie
side-hustle on Etsy?

Oh, my God,
will you please play a game

on your phone or something?

You're gonna give me
an aneurysm.

Hey, how come you're so zen
about this all of a sudden?

Because there's nothing
we can do about it.

Yeah, but doesn't it bother you

that the government's gonna be
all up in our business,

combing through
every inch of our lives

with a fine-tooth comb?

'Cause that's what
an audit is, Maddie.

They leave no stone unturned.

Are you afraid that I'm gonna
find out something I shouldn't?

No. You?

Of course not.

Okay, then.

Hey, do they still have
debtors' prison?

This isn't a Dickens novel.

Buckley, Han?

- Follow me.
- Remember what we said.

Never take candy from strangers

except on Halloween.

Don't give them any information
unless they ask for it.

We are fine.
Just... relax.

Right.

Do you know why you're here?

The letters didn't say.

This is a test.
It's a test, isn't it?

Your returns indicate
what we believe to be tax fraud.

Tax fraud?

No, no, no. We're not--
We would never...

We're not criminals.
I mean, look at us.

We're not frauds, either.
We're actually very genuine.

Do you both reside at the
address listen on your returns?

- Yes. Yes, we do.
- Yes. Yes.

And yet you both
filed separately

and both claimed
head of household.

I thought I was gonna claim
head of household.

- Yeah, to which I replied
I already had.
- I pay over half

- the expenses.
- I pay plenty of expenses.

Enough ice cream to feed
a small village doesn't count.

It does if your family eats
like a small village.

- (clears throat)
- It was an honest mistake.

It's only your first violation.

There's more than one?

The dependent,
Jee-Yun Buckley Han.

You both claimed her as well.

Oh. I didn't know that
you were gonna claim Jee.

I guess we didn't really
discuss it.

You know what, filing
on the computer, it was...

- it was very quick...
- It was just so fast

and we just...
I-I think that's just another

- honest mistake.
- Mm. You're two for two?

- Is there more?
- You tell me.

Okay...

(sighs) I...

Okay, I borrowed money
from my parents to buy a house,

and I didn't claim it as income.

Probably claimed some medical
expenses we shouldn't have

when our daughter was
in the hospital.

She had a viral infection.

- And then we thought
it got worse.
- But she's okay,

and we have receipts from
the hospital if you need 'em.

I donated my old car to charity.

None of that was flagged
on your returns.

So we're good?

No, you are not.

Are we going to debtors' prison?

This isn't a Dickens novel.

That's what I said.

DEBBIE: We just send people
to regular prison now.

You will both need to refile
your returns correctly,

upon which time
we will determine

precisely what you owe.

- CHIM: That's it?
- You will also need to decide

who is the head
of your household.

Well, we could switch
every year.

I love that idea.
Let's just alternate.

- Love it.
- I love how awesome
you're being.

- (both laugh)
- (Debbie clears throat)

You should leave my desk immediately.

- Understood.
- Departing now.

(sighs)

BUCK:
So, uh... how's Marie?

Physically, she's not well.

I mean,
she survived the accident,

and won't have
any major injuries--

thanks to you guys-- but

it's not like
it slowed down the cancer.

Emotionally, however, she's...
she's doing really great.

Well, thanks to you.

(stammers) It's fascinating.

I-I never knew someone could
spend their life

bringing people
closer to death... legally.

But you've been closer
than anybody.

Been there and come back.

That is so freakin' cool.

- I don't know. Cool?
- Well, wasn't it?

Come on, be honest.

Look how excited you are.

You're like a legit fangirl
for this stuff.

You might say
I'm dying to know.

Pun very much intended.

(chuckles)

I'll start by saying
I woke up in a world

that was both everything
and nothing

I ever wanted it to be.

I can tell from the look
on your face

that made absolutely
no sense.

Firefighter and philosopher. Noted.

Yeah. Uh, okay,
but let me start again.

I-I woke up in a hospital.

And at first, everything seemed
completely normal.

Athena.

Oh, sorry to impose
on your lunch, Luann.

It's all right.
How can I help you?

Well, I'm here
on unofficial business.

We had a suspect go down
during an arrest the other day.

A Dominic Dawson.

That name sounds familiar.

I believe he was admitted
to the ER yesterday.

Yes.

We picked up his body
yesterday evening.

Do we have any information

- on his cause of death yet?
- Not yet.

Unfortunately,
we're backlogged.

- That bus accident downtown.
- (exhales)

It'll probably be another day
or two before I get to him.

- So we know nothing.
- Listen,

you're more than welcome
to take a look at the body--

- unofficially.
- If that's okay.

Ah. Uh, honestly,
looking at a body

doesn't always tell you much.

Our answers are usually found
under the skin.

Here we are.
Dominic Dawson.

This can't be right.

That isn't him.

He's listed as number 107.

This is his bracelet.

But not his body.

So, then, who is this?

And where is Dominic Dawson?

- (police radio chatter)
- (indistinct conversations)

Body's been identified
as Seth Davis.

Any idea when he swapped
the hospital bracelet?

Security footage doesn't show
anybody unusual

coming or going, so,

must have made the swap
before the transfer.

After he came back
from the dead.

Officers found a bottle
of Lisinopril--

it's a blood pressure
medication--

emptied in his bathroom,
so he must have given himself

just enough of an overdose.

Caused his vitals to plummet
in the back of your car.

- Why would someone do that?
- In this case,

I figure it's gotta be
one of three things:

money, money or money.

- (chuckles)
- But I'm actually more curious

as to what you were doing here
in the first place.

Finding out that
our suspect wasn't dead.

Anything?

Only explanation I have
is he was given

the wrong bracelet in the ER.

- And how likely is that?
- LUANN: It's not.

But it's also not impossible.

We may be looking at
a simple mistake.

Oh, no.
This was not a mistake.

BOBBY:
Well, you got what
you hoped for.

You found your answer.

ATHENA:
- ell, I found the first answer.
- W

And like any good answer,

it raised a whole lot
of new questions.

I spoke with Hen
about the Lisinopril.

She said it would have
ottomed out his blood pressureb

for about 20 minutes.

Dominic!

So he could have
come to in the ER,

made the switch then.

PARAMEDIC (over radio):
Harvey,

we need some help

- in the lobby.
- Roger that.

ATHENA:
The ER was inundated
after that bus crash.

BOBBY:
He was able to get out,
but go where?

ATHENA:
That's the million-dollar
question.

The police have been
tossing his house

looking for the money he stole.

I just don't like having people
in my house.

Oh, well, they should only
be there two,

maybe three days.

Sneaky son of a...

(car door shuts)

(engine starts)

OFFICER:
Crime scene techs just left.

- We're pulling out.

About seven minutes.

- BOBBY: What happened?

He was going through processing,

and then he just collapsed, again.

Maybe that Lisinopril did a
better job than it should have.

Sharp decline of blood flow,

basically asking
for a heart attack.

Well, I'd say
let's call the police, but...

I'll get the medical examiner
on the line.

Just give it a minute.

Make sure he doesn't make
another run for it.

(Athena sighs)

♪

- So it was the cancer?
- Yeah.

Her organs started failing
after the accident,

but she-she was already
in a pretty bad way.

Natalia said the doctors
actually complimented our work.

We're all gonna die alone.

That's what she said
to me and Hen.

Yes and no.

Right? I-I mean,

she got to see all her friends

and family before she went.

That was a beautiful thing
Natalia did for her.

Yeah, uh, Natalia.

(chuckles) I, uh, I may have
paid her a visit, too.

Really?
Dating someone you rescued?

- You know that never ends well.
- This-this is different.

You know. Anyway,
she wanted to ask me

- about the lightning strike.
- Right.

You love being the guy
with the answers.

No, I'm serious.

There's something...
different about her.

I f-- I feel like she sees me.

You know?
Like she-she really sees me

for who I am
and what I've been through.

I think she might even
see more in me

than I see in myself.

Look, I know we razzed you
about your math skills.

Maybe I even tried
to get rich off of 'em.

But to be honest,

you haven't been the same
since it happened.

- But how could you be?
- (sighs)

The truth is, man, uh,

I-I still don't know how to act.

I am different.

I feel like
I have to try and be the...

same old Buck.

Mostly for the sake
of everyone else.

You don't have to be anything
for anybody.

And no one is ever the same
from one day to the next.

Experiences like this,
they change us.

So what changed in you?

Well, when I woke up

in that hospital,

I felt like I had gotten away
with something.

You cheated death.

My life could have ended
right then and there,

but it-it didn't.

That has to mean something, right?

It means you're one lucky guy.

Yeah, well, I don't think
I'm gonna get that lucky again.

Well, maybe you don't have to.

Lightning doesn't strike
the same place twice.

Which is why
I have to make the most

of every single moment.

Because from here on out...

...it's all a gift.

Okay.

One black coffee,
and one affogato.

Affogato. Fancy.

Yeah, we've got
a lot of ice cream

we need to get rid of.

Thanks for coming by
so last-minute.

- We really appreciate it.
- Of course.

I would have invited you
to my office,

but it's a little charred
at the moment.

I heard. I guess this tax stuff
does make people crazy.

You have no idea.

We kind of do, actually.

So this head of household
business, that's just about

who makes the most money?

Or who spends the most money?

Let me simplify it for you.

File together,
save yourselves $14,000.

I know it's not the most
romantic thing in the world,

- but...
-$14,000?

Sounds pretty romantic to me.

Great. So, next year,
before you file your taxes,

there's only one thing
you need to do.

- Great.
- We'll be ready. What is it?

Get married.

(Felix Mendelssohn's
"Wedding March" playing)

♪

(applause)

(oven timer chimes)

(people on TV
speaking Spanish)

Oh...

Who's ready for some...

s'mores?

(man speaking Spanish on TV)

(intense music playing)

(TV shuts off)

(exhales)

(chuckles)

Missed out, bud.

(magnet clatters)

Hey, Mom.

Oh, nothing,
just eating s'mores

and watching la novela
with Christopher.

(chuckles)

Yeah, I know it's late.
I'm sorry.

I was thinking maybe
we could watch it together

in El Paso next weekend.

I know.

(chuckles) Yeah, I know.

I know, it's last-minute,
but I miss you guys,

and I know Christopher does, too.

Exactly. Why wait?

Well, there's no better time
than now.

So that accountant guy suggests
you two get married,

and you just go about your
business like nothing happened?

Well, it felt awkward
to talk about it afterwards,

so I just kind of
snuck out this morning.

So now you're gonna go home,
and the elephant is still

gonna be standing in the room.

I can't be the one
to bring it up.

It'll feel like
I'm pressuring him.

Broaching the subject isn't
the same thing as pressure.

Do you want to marry Chimney?

(sighs) I don't know.

(stammers) There's a part of me

that never wanted
to marry anyone ever again.

Yeah, but this is Chimney.

A completely different situation.

He's amazing and sweet,

and he loves you to no end.

Yes, he is all of those things.

And we are committed
to each other

- 'cause we're raising
our daughter.
- Exactly.

Exactly. So why do we need
to get married?

♪ See, I knew that
you would wander ♪

- Ooh.
-♪ And I thought ♪

♪ You could be free ♪

♪ I guess I thought that ♪

♪ This is what you wanted ♪

♪ Give me love like a circle ♪

♪ And I'll be happy then. ♪
