- What's going on? You okay?

- Yeah, yeah, just waking upstrong, like you do.

- Well, did you have a bad dream?

'Cause we could stop watching documentaries

on serial killers before bed.

- That might help.

I'm happy to try anything at this point.

- What's that mean? Has this been going on long?

- Um...a few weeks, I guess?

It's...hard to keep track

when you're not sleepingvery much.

- Well, what level bad dreams are we talking here?

Falling out of the sky? Chased by wolves?

Forgetting all the lines to your one-act play?

That one might be mine.

- It's not quite like that.

Basically, it's just...

me, alone, stuck in this house,

and no matter what I do, I can't make it out the door.

And then I wake up.

Sometimes multiple times a night.

The end.

- Look...

I'm no dream interpreteror anything, but...

do you think maybeyou feel trapped living here?

I mean, I know you lovebeing here for your mom,

but it's been two months now.

I mean...maybe you just needyour own space again.

- I can't do that.

I mean, she's all alone here, and...

We work on this really fun puzzle at night.

- No, no, no.I get it. I get it.

Puzzles are fun. - No.

- But it's--[laughs]

It might be nice to regain someof your independence, you know?

Regain your privacy.

[soft piano music]

Regain your adult-size bed.

- I mean...

Yeah, it would be...

really great to have a good night's sleep again.

And maybe if moving back home would help that...

- Yeah, yeah, well,maybe just...

feel it out with your mom,see how it goes.

♪

- It feels wrong to be mad at a baby,

but who waits until daylight to finally fall asleep?

- He doesn't respect us. He's clearly a sadist.

He must get that from your side of the family.

- Good morning, family! - Shh!

- Okay, if you wake up my baby right now,

I will literally kill you.

Oh, I--I meant that in the nicest way possible.

- Hello, Miles.

Are you still asleep 'cause your room is so boring?

- What do you mean? It's cute.

- There is nothing on the walls.

It's like a prison for babies.

- Yeah, I guess we've been too busy

keeping another human being alive

to worry about home decor.

- Yeah, and the weird thing is,

we do have a baby registry

that definitely has some art on it, so...

- The only reason I haven't gotten you a gift yet

is because it is more thoughtful

to wait and see what someone needs.

And now I know.

What if we do a photo shoot of the whole family,

and I make a gallery wall right here

with all the pictures?

- What if you stop screaming in my sleeping baby's room?

- That is a great idea.

I forgot you're into photography now.

- "Into photography"? I have a website.

Okay, I'm going to get some coffee.

I only got, like, a light nine hours of sleep last night,

but then we'll schedule this thing.

- Will you throw me a Pop Tart?

- I ate the last one.

- [sighs] Of course you did.

[soft percussive music]

- Does she know that she's talking that loud?

- She may be more exhausting than the baby.

- Latest puzzle, huh?

Ooh, I think I found the cat's top hat.

- Put that back.

This is strictly a Mom and Zoey project.

- Okay, totally understand.

Then I won't tell you I also found the cat's bow tie.

- Ooh, so it's a public puzzle, I see.

- Told you.

Hey, Mom, you look really nice today.

- Thank you. It's a big day today.

- She seems like she's in a good mood.

- She does, right?

Okay.

Right now might be a good time to talk to her.

- Maybe.

- Hey. How you feeling?

Are you ready for your big landscaping pitch?

- Um...

I'm a little nervous.

Um, a little rusty.

This architect is kind of a big deal.

It's my...first presentation without Mitch.

I just really want it to go well.

- It is going to go well. You know why?

'Cause you're Maggie frickin' Clarke.

- [laughs] Yes, I am.

- Anyway, since we're both feeling so pumped,

I was wondering how you would feel if--

- Hey...you... how's everything going?

- I'm getting more requests for comment

on the Sprqpoint Watch fiasco.

How about you? That's a lot of caffeine, friend.

- Just tired and weary and other drowsy words like that.

Maybe it's 'cause Sprqpoint is falling apart,

or maybe it's because I'm not sleeping.

Question...

is sleep important?

- I hear it is. How much sleep are we talking?

- Uh...last night, I would say a whopping...

two to three hours before waking up

to another horrible dream.

- Oh, man. Been there.

Um...I had a lot of bad dreams after my dad died.

- How do I get them to stop?

Because I feel like I'm losing it.

- It didn't stop, not for a while.

But I talked to my therapist, and he gave me some books,

and they all said that reducing stress

can help with sleep, so it could be

a good place to start.

- Okay, well, reducing stress

is a little tricky since I've taken over the fourth floor

and have ten times the responsibility now.

- Have you not discovered...

the absolute joy of being in charge yet?

Just give half of your responsibilities

to other people.

Take the important stuff for yourself,

give away the rest.

♪

- Hey, everybody? Can I talk to you?

- Is this bad news?

- "Hey, everybody" is always bad news.

- Especially when it comes from the Boy Scout leader.

- Everything is fine.

I just realized with all the work I'm doing around here,

I'm still taking on way too many projects

that I know this group would be amazing at.

So I'm asking all of you

to take on some more responsibilities around here.

- What kind of responsibilities?

- Does it come with extra compensation?

'Cause I need that cash money.

- Leif, I'd like you to research options

for our community service days.

Mackenzie, you're on the suggestion box email account.

George...

take over the rotating food bar,

remembering that our budget is super small.

And Tobin is going to start a company softball team.

- Boom.

I know a dude that can get us

farm-league-quality jerseys ASAP.

Gentlemen, give me your sizes.

I'ma hit up Joey Bats.

It's his nickname.

- Women's sizes, too, Tobin. This is a co-ed league.

- Of course, course, course.

So, like, one girl?

Maybe two girls?

- Before you start knocking the women,

uh, should everyone raise their hands

who played softball in college?

Mmm, mmm.

Also, Yasmeen, was it the javelin you threw

in the Junior Olympics?

- Shot put.

- Shot put. Mm...

- Okay, okay. Fine, fine, fine.

You're all in, happy?

- Thank you.

Ooh. Now if you'll excuse me,

I'm going to go get the accounting department

on holiday decorations.

- He's right there. - Thank you.

Roger.

- Maggie Clarke. [Maggie chuckles]

Well, well.

Welcome to the sad backyard of our stunning estate.

[Maggie laughs]

- Well, it, uh...

It does look a bit unfinished.

- It's a disaster.

And as you can see, our last landscape designer

didn't exactly work out.

I'm very excited you're joining us, though.

- Thank you.

- I've heard a lot about the Mitch and Maggie projects

over the years.

And I should say I'm terribly sorry

to hear of his passing. - Thank you.

So, um...

shall I just show you what I'm thinking?

- Yes, please. - Okay.

I focused on clean, simple greenery

along here and here.

It's very classic so that

nothing overshadows your beautiful house.

- Huh.

Okay.

- Is it? - Well, I--

I mean, overall, it's fine.

I'm not in love with it, though.

Yeah, it's--honestly, it's a lot safer

than I was expecting.

- Oh. Safer. Okay.

- Well, I was just hoping for more of that Clarke magic

that you guys are known for, you know?

- Right. - Just...

look, I don't mean to offend you.

- No, no. - I'd love you to take

another crack at it.

Come on, Maggie, why don't you go

for something... I don't know, special?

- Are you kidding?

I would...love to try something different.

- Okay, good. - Roger, can you come here?

- Uh, I'll be right back.

- Hey.

- Hey, guys. What's going on?

- We brought Mom dinner,

but she said she was too busy to eat.

Her meeting was bad.

- How's it going, superstar?

- My meeting was bad.

- That cannot be true.

- He hated everything I said and did.

Maybe he even hated my shoes. We'll never know.

- That makes no sense.

You are incredible.

- Yeah, well, incredibly safe,

I believe, is the word Roger used,

and, um...you know what? He's right.

I was second-guessing myself, and I did play it safe.

[sighs]

It's just that for 40 years, Mitch has been the person

I've bounced all my ideas off of.

- I'm not a substitute for Dad,

but I'm a good problem solver.

You want to bounce some ideas off of me?

- Because this is a spec house,

we can technically do whatever we want,

which is actually tough because we're just guessing

what a buyer will respond to.

- Got it. Spec...house.

- Oh, what are you writing?

- Everything you're saying.

Once I understand the parameters,

I can generate a solution.

- Okay, well, um...

one of the first parameters

is focusing on the overall concept.

- Concept.

Like...what bushes you want.

- Yeah, sure, bushes are a part of it,

but it's more like, "What is the overall design?"

Should we do country cottage

or organic garden, European formal?

- You know what? I'm going to brush up on, um...

European formal in one of these books here.

- Well, honey, it's not really a thing you can just study.

Like... [sighs]

- What about this?

This is pretty.

Can we do this?

- It's Versailles.

- Right. So...

no. - No.

- Okay. No...on...Versailles.

- Sorry to interrupt.

I found, like, a bunch of random paints in the closet,

and I just, like, started experimenting.

- Mom, I feel like I'm not much of a help with this.

So maybe if I tell you,

at least that stress will be gone?

Max and I have been hanging out a lot.

Like...

A lot, a lot. You catch my drift?

- You're together?

in those terms, per se, but--

- Max told me you guys are together.

So, does that mean you're... okay with it?

You really are good at this

whole question and answer thing.

don't focus on the space itself,

focus on the potential.

- Oh, wonderful. I love a cruise.

- This cruise is ruining my life!

- You know what? Uh...

Let's just go ahead and get started without him.

- Fantastic. - Yeah.

- So, this space is a little rougher

than some of the ones we saw yesterday,

and the area is on the downswing, but--

- This place is huge. How can we afford this?

- The last tenants left in a hurry.

The new owners are desperate

for some new cash flow, so it's--

- Is that the kitchen back there?

[Mo snaps fingers] - Uh, why do we need a kitchen?

We're not even cooking food.

- Your restaurant doesn't have food?

- Well, it's actually quite innovative...

- Forget it, Eddie. Oh, oh, why?

Because I refuse to have this conversation

over the sounds of howler monkeys. Goodbye.

- Everything okay? - This place is soulless.

Our restaurant is supposed to be an experience, right?

And all I'm experiencing is "crack house."

I mean, where's the life? The character?

- Um, just one second. Hey, uh, Mo?

- Did I mention there is a current liquor license?

- Great!

What's that mean again?

- Well, some liquor licenses are specific to location

rather than the business itself,

so you'd be well-served...

Some liquor license humor there.

To find a recently failed restaurant

and take over that license.

Otherwise, it can take months before you get one.

- Um...

[whispering] Just one second.

Do we really want to wait that long

to get a liquor license?

I mean, that's where we're going to make

most of our money, Mo.

- Fine. Rent it.

But know that I'm going to have to tear down walls,

build up walls, chopper in a water fountain,

ooh, rethink these roofs, tear up the floor,

and put in a shark tank.

Or do we want to do octopus?

you haven't talked to Mo recently, have you?

Because all he does these days is hate on the restaurant

and make these crazy suggestions

to talk to you about it first, but sure, I will.

By the way, um...

how was your night last night?

You still having the dream?

- Yeah.

Though Simon says it's pretty normal

after a parent dies, so I'm, like...

trying not to obsess about it.

- Simon, huh?

Talk about that kind of stuff at work?

That's...cool.

- Is that okay? I mean, I know you guys also talk about stuff.

- What, you mean because I told him that we're together?

I mean, we're friends. I thought he should know.

No worries, all good.

What was that? Did I just sing to you?

You had that look in your face.

- You might have sung to me. - What did I sing?

- Um...

yeah, I don't know the name of it.

And...it was clear, though, that you definitely have...

- What? - Feelings.

- About what? About--about Simon?

Just sing me the song. - I don't know the song.

I can't sing the song. - But that's not fair.

I mean, you know, people can have a lot of thoughts

in their head without meaning them.

And by the way, I worked overtime

to not be weird about Simon, even though you work

in the same office with him,

so you can't read into it if the song just happens.

- I'm not reading into it! It's fine!

- No! It's not fine, okay?

You always have a secret window into my brain,

and, you know, I would love to know what you're feeling.

- I'm not feeling anything.

- Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Is she complaining about the jerseys?

Because we call everyone here bro.

It's a compliment...bro.

And the logo is...

problematic. - What?

What are you talking about? It's--

you guys are seeing things that are not there.

Remind me, what was I right about?

- My first design was fine... - Mm.

- But this one is much better.

Thematically, it's a modern enchanted forest.

Very full, very lush, and a little bit wild.

And there's overgrown flowers that are sloping here

to topiaries that run along there.

It's the kind of magical place

that you might want to get lost in forever.

- It's like a secret garden.

- Yes, exactly.

And I know it's not a typical Mitch and Maggie design,

'cause, you know, won't get to wear them for real.

- Why are you letting them screw around like this?

I thought you hated when they play games in the office.

- I-I do, but-- [sighs]

they wanted to try them on, and I thought it was healthy

to play for five minutes, and...

then they called me "coach."

- Oh, did they? I don't care.

I don't care if they called you softball champion of the world.

I told Tobin to send them back.

So...why can't you just do that?!

Why can't I just say, "Send them back,"

and then you go, and you send them back?

Because now, here I am, yelling

that the one thing I want in my life

is for you to send back

the sexist penis jerseys!

Okay, yes, I was wearing a towel, but...

I'm pretty sure she might have caught a glimpse of some stuff.

- Okay, well, she will be leaving at some point.

I just have to start dropping hints that it's time.

"Our place is so small.

You must be wanting to get back to your own life."

- "Thank you, but your presence is no longer welcome here."

That--that's a good one.

- Yeah. Subtle clues like that.

She'll get it.

- Guys.

Guess what.

Maggie asked me to work on that house with her.

- What? - Why?

- She's been so helpful with me,

and I think she has a great eye.

- But only if you guys are cool with it.

I do not want to overstay my welcome,

but also, I really want to do this.

- Yeah, no, I think that that's a--

I think that's a great idea.

Uh, Emily? What do you, um...

- Yeah. - Yeah?

Yeah. - Yeah, so great.

For both of you.

[low percussive music]

- Hey, so I made a cake for you

as a peace offering, but I cribbed it

off "The Great British Baking Show,"

so don't be surprised if there's too much cardamom.

Even though I don't exactly know what that means.

- Hmm?

Oh, thank you. - You good?

I'm pretty excited we have a place to ourselves.

- Me too.

Moving back here was such the right move.

Hopefully, I'll get some good sleep tonight.

- Yes.

[sighs]

Okay, so here's what you need to know

about professional wrestling.

Most people think it's fake, but these men are athletes.

If you actually think about it...

Hey.

Where are you go-- are you all right?

[tense music]

♪

- [whispering] Not really.

I'm still having the bad dreams, Max.

- Okay, all right, do you want

to talk about it? I'm right here.

- No, I want them to magically go away!

I'm gonna go...

Get ready for bed.

Even though that feels like wishful thinking at this point.

.

- Yes...

Please tell me you didn't sleep here last night.

- Nope.

I lay awake at home.

Until I gave up and started making

apology friendship bracelets for all the programmers.

- Huh.

You still having those...

Those bad dreams, huh?

- Yeah.

But I'm not sure which is worse.

Feeling bad 'cause of the dreams,

or feeling...

Guilty 'cause...

I can't open up to Max about it.

He just hasn't lived through this, you know?

- I do, indeed.

- I just thought I'd feel better by now.

I've tried...reducing stress.

I moved back to my place.

But no matter what I do, I can't stop...

having these awful dreams

where I'm trying to get out of the house.

And then last night, I finally made it out the door,

but I still couldn't escape because there was another me...

blocking my exit.

- So you literally could not get out of your own way.

- Sounds so obvious when you say it.

- Hey. Here's the thing.

Your dad just died.

[sentimental music]

And looking for any other reason

why these dreams are happening...

or thinking that you can just make them stop is crazy.

- You're very comforting.

- Is it comforting to know...

That at least you're not alone, though?

We...we are part of the same sad club now.

Five more nightmares, and you get a jacket.

[laughs]

- So I'm just supposed to do nothing?

- Talking to me isn't nothing.

And, uh...

I do think moving back to your place

is a good step forward.

Honestly, the more you can do for yourself right now...

The better.

- Hey, did you know Mo and Eddie broke up?

I mean, I guess it makes sense.

Long distance sounds hard.

- Uh-huh.

- And hey, I'm-- I'm not gonna say

I'm glad they broke up, but...

Zoey?

Zoey.

Zoey, I've been talking to myself for ten minutes.

Are you even listening? - I am.

- Then can you tell me why every conversation lately

seems like me struggling for your attention?

Is it me?

Is it--is it work? Is it your dad?

Because whatever it is doesn't make me feel very good,

and I want to be there for you, I really do, but--

- I'm sorry it's making you feel bad.

I just... - What?

- [sighs] - You just...what?

- I got a lot of work I have to go finish.

- Can I say something?

- Sure.

- I know that you want to know what's going on with me.

But...

I'm feeling a hundred things at once,

and most of 'em are about how...messed up I am.

You and I both thought that moving back here

was gonna make my bad dreams go away.

But it didn't.

So...I started to wonder if it was maybe something else.

- Something like me? - No.

Me.

Nothing in my life feels right right now.

I don't feel right... right now.

And I don't know.

There's no one to blame for it, but...

I don't know how to fix it, either.

- Well-- [sighs]

I mean...

Do you think we rushed into this?

I mean maybe-- maybe I pushed you

when deep down, I knew it was probably too soon

after your dad.

Maybe I just wanted to be with you so badly that...

I was willing to go for it.

- I wanted to go for it too.

But I'm barely ever present with you

because I'm sad or tired or just...

in my head all the time.

And I hate it, and it's--

- I--I know.

- It's not fair to you.

Maybe I do need more time.

[somber music]

- We should...put things on pause for a bit.

Yeah, yeah, it's okay.

Hey--hey, look.

If we both force this thing

to happen before you're ready, then...

We'll destroy it before it's even begun.
