Oh, it feels
good being here.

Mm-hmm.

I thought I'd be
more nervous.

I mean, it's
been a while.

Refresh my memory.

Do you always talk
this much?

(laughing):
Uh-huh.

(phone rings)

(sighs)
No.

Yeah.

NOAH:
Brandon, thank God you're home.

Donna overdosed.
Whoa, whoa, whoa,
Noah, slow down.

I can't understand
what you're s...

(siren blares)
Look, Donna overdosed.
The paramedics...

Where are you?

On my way to the hospital.

L.A. Memorial.
She's unconscious, man.

They don't know what's gonna...
Okay.

Don't worry about it.
W-We'll be there ASAP.

Somebody's got
to call her parents.

Yeah, yeah, we'll tell everyone.

What's going on?

Donna overdosed.

What?
When?

Noah didn't say.

Has she eaten?

I don't know.
Is she gonna be okay?

The medication found
near the body--

do you know how much
she was taking?

Sometimes
one of each.

Look, I wasn't there.
NURSE:
Trauma Four

is ready and waiting.

Look, was she conscious?
Did she say anything at all?

Let's get her inside.

The doctors are going
to take it from here.

You can't go in there.

Look, why won't you
answer my questions?

Look, if you want
what's best for her,

you'll let us do our jobs.
MAN:
Lift her, please.

Ready, lift.

Watch the lines.

DOCTOR:
How's her O2 sat?

NURSE 2:
75%.

Respiratory's hovering
around 12.

Let's try
and crank those up.

Once she's stable,
the fluids should help

level her. One gram
of naloxone

IV push, stat.

IV is ready.

DOCTOR:
Saline flush.

WOMAN (over P.A.):
Respiratory therapist
to the emergency room.

Respiratory therapist...

How is she?
Is she okay?

What's the story, Noah?

She's finally conscious.

What the hell
happened in there?

She took too many pills
and she passed out.

What, she was taking pills?

No, no, she was taking
prescription painkillers.

Uppers, too, Dr. Martin.
I'm gonna go see
what's going on.

Wait a second, you let her
mix uppers and downers?

I didn't let her do anything.
I found out

what she was doing,
I told her to stop.

Gee, I can understand with you
being on trial for rape,

her wanting to dull the pain.

NOAH: Josh was the one
with the Rohypnol here.

Don't blame me.
Josh isn't the one
who cheated on her.

over P.A.)

When we pumped your stomach,
we got rid

of any residual traces
of the drugs,

and we've been
feeding you fluids

to replenish your system
and get you back to normal.

And when can
she go home?

In a few hours.

Great.
Just realize

it could take you
four days to withdraw

from the drugs.

You'll probably be
pretty sluggish

and you may have some nausea
and some leg cramps.

That's why they call it
"kicking the habit."

I'll put you
on an antidepressant

to help with the withdrawal,

and I'll set you up
with outpatient drug counseling.

Wait, I made a mistake.

I'm not an addict.

You could have died last night.

Any precautions
we can take

to prevent that
from happening again,

I suggest we take them.

Thank you,
Doctor, very much.

I'll stop by
before you go.

WOMAN (over P.A.)
Nursing supervisor to OR,

nursing supervisor to OR.

Look, since your mother
is still in Rome,

I'm waiting to
call her, okay?

I'll tell her
when she gets home.

I promise.
Please, Daddy?

I want you to come home
for a few days.

I'm fine at the apartment.

Kelly's there.

And she was there before.

(sighs)

I guess I learned something
about myself through this...

I'm good at keeping a secret.

(sighing):
I wish you would
have come to me.

I was a mess.

Let me help.
The painkillers--
they made

me tired, and the uppers--
they got me through work,

and then
once I was on that cycle...

I didn't want you
to see me like that.

(sighs)

Where'd you get the uppers?

Noah's brother gave me some.

(sighs)

The rest I took from the clinic.

You stole them?

I'm sorry.

About everything.

(sighs)

How's she doing?

She is going to
be just fine.

Thank God.

Can I see her?

Actually, she
asked for Kelly.

Excuse me.

(woman speaking indistinctly
over P.A.)

Hey, any update?

Yeah, she's doing great.

Oh, that's good.

Is she seeing visitors?
Some.

Does she know
you've been here all night?

I don't think so.

Look, I talked to my lawyer
this morning,

and Josh and his lawyer are
on their way to see the D.A.

Look, I called the D.A. and I

told him I'll help
any way I can.

I appreciate that.

I feel like I...

owe you an apology.

But then I think... for what?

Look, we're all going
to get past this, all of us.

It's just, it's just
really confusing.

We're still going to try
to move on, though, right?

It's a good thing that Noah
went to the beach apartment.

I was going to spend
the night at Brandon's.

Noah found me?

He saved your life.

When I found out that you had
overdosed, I was so scared.

I know. I'm sorry.

I keep thinking:

I should have
seen this coming.

I should have
done something.

No, I wasn't asking
for help then, but I am now.

Well, you've got it.

But...

you have to recognize
that you have a serious problem.

Kel, I'm not a drug addict.

You may not think so,
but your body disagrees.

Your body needed
those drugs.

That's why you're going
through withdrawals.

When things got bad, the pills--

they just made
everything easier.

And one of the things
that I learned

when I was in rehab was
to figure out

who brings out your strengths

and who brings out
your weaknesses.

Noah saved my life;
you said so yourself.

Donna, you're
my best friend,

and you know that I like Noah,

but if you do drugs
when you're with him,

then you've got to end it.

FRANK:
That bungalow's funky,
but it's not you.

This, on the other hand,
feels like you.

Must be expensive.

You can afford it.

As of now, David Silver,
Beverly Hills slacker,

is history.

David Silver, lead singer
of Jasper's Law, has arrived,

and you deserve all the toys,
my man.

Limos, private
planes, models.

Hey, Mr. Double Platinum,
I'm talking to you.

Sorry, I...

A friend of mine
OD'd last night

and wound up in
the emergency room.

And?

Well, she's going to be
okay, you know, it's just...

Not to be callous, David, but
this is your time in the sun.

You must focus on you,
maximize the moment.

Yeah, I know.

Now, first off,
we're going to be recording

in front of a live audience
from the Loose Lizards.

You're kidding.

It'll be a full house,

it'll give your album the energy

of a live performance.

(chuckles)

That-That's, that's outstanding.

I thought you'd like it.

Look, Frank...
I was really on the fence

about this band
after Jasper left,

but I got to thank you for
pulling me over to your side.

I mean, I-I really believe

this is one
of the best decisions

I've made in a long time.

Good man.

BRANDON: Kelly just called
from the hospital.

Donna's well on her way
to a full recovery.

Oh, great.

When can we see her?
Uh,

she's being released
later this afternoon.

Fan mail?
No.

No, they're for that guy Ted who
used to work in the building.

Well, he changed jobs and asked
our former assistant Terri

to forward his mail,

which she did,
but they keep coming back.

She must have written down
the wrong address.

You know, Steve, it's a felony
to open someone else's mail.

Well, it started with a postcard
of Wrigley Field.

I read it by accident.

Freud said
there are no accidents.

The brown one smells
like cinnamon.

Cinnamon?

(sniffs)

Mmm, Jill is so cool.

Jill?

She's the girl
writing the letters.

Hmm.

The brown one, too.

That smells like cinnamon.

Cinnamon.

Mmm, I think I'm in love.

How literary
of you,

Steve, to fall in love
with someone's letters.

Well, I'm off to chronicle
the continuing adventures

of David Silver, superstar.

This week's installment?

Up close and personal with
Jasper's Law's original Jasper.

Remember,

they're only letters.
Well, if you

read these, you'd know
how wrong you are.

You're damn right I was angry.

I hand-picked
that band myself.

And then they
pushed you out?

Yeah.

Anyway,
I got a new band now.

We're doing some stuff
we're really proud of.

(chuckles)

So I guess all we need is
a record deal.

You know, it's amazing to
me how quickly things move

once you do have
a record deal.

I mean, it seemed to me like
David recorded that song

and a couple weeks later,
it was on the radio.

I thought it
took months.

It usually does.

Guess that's why they call it
an overnight success, huh?

They call it a lot of things.

What do you mean?

Let's just say

a response like that
doesn't come cheap.

You saying there was money
involved?

What, in the music business?

Come on.

That's a pretty serious
allegation, Jasper.

Can you prove it?

No, of course not.

But, uh,

David's song is getting a
helluva lot of airplay,

don't you think?

(groaning)
Come on, easy.
Her name is Leanne.

Leanne?
C'mon, Leanne.
Okay.

Sit up here.

Now just point to where
it hurts, Leanne.

KELLY: Okay, I just need to
get some information.

Um, what's your address?

5247 Corinth Street.

And your phone number?

This really hurts.

I'm not surprised.

Having a baby usually does.

I'm not due for another month.
Apparently,

no one told your child.
You're in labor.

(panting)

I've been patient, but
my boy is burning up.

Let's get you into an
examination room.

You'll get
Dr. Martin?

Okay, yeah, right away.

Okay, is there anybody

that we can call for you?
A boyfriend,

parent?
This isn't supposed

to be happening, it's not.

Okay, as soon as the doctor
looks at you,

we'll get you to the hospital.

Hang in there--
everything's

gonna be fine.

I know you're upset, Felice.

So am I.
(knocking on door)

No, but I can't make
her come home

if she doesn't want
to come home.

Look, I've-I've gotta go.

Um, yes, I will call you
with any news.

I will.

Good-bye.
I'm sorry to
interrupt...

The woman just doesn't
understand.

Of course frankly,
neither do I. What?

Um, there's a girl
in the exam room

who's having
contractions.

Oh, that's weird.

She was here a
minute ago.

Have you seen Leanne?

Uh, no.

Maybe she went
to the hospital.

Hey!
Hmm?

A shooting star.

Did you see that?

Yeah. Hmm...

Gotta make a wish.

Okay.
Better times.

Absolutely.

I missed you.

Me, too.

Mmm.

You know,

Frank left me the combination
to the lockbox.

We could go inside.

No, I actually like it
out here.

Really?

(grunts)

What?

No, it's-it's fine.

Come here.

David...

Val...

I just-- I just
can't do this.

I-I don't understand
what-what's wrong.

No, I thought
I was ready but...

But nobody is-is forcing
you to do anything.

How come I can't
forget a night

that I don't even
remember?

It's okay.

No, it's not.

I mean, it should be.

I... I'm here...

with this house,
and-and you...

but it's not.

And I don't know
if it's ever gonna be.

(baby crying)

Oh, my God.

(knocking on door)

Oh, hey.
Hey.

Formula, wipes and a
six-pack of diapers.

Oh, you are a
lifesaver.

Apparently,
so are you.

I found him on the doorstep
of the clinic last night.

I know who the mom is.

She's just a kid.

She probably panicked.

You gotta call Social
Services, Kel.

Now.

Dr. Martin checked him out.

We agreed that I'd call today.

I wanted to give the mom a night
to think about what she did.

Can you just hold him

for a second?

I'm gonna get the address
and go and see her.

When she sees
this little face,

she's going to want him back.

She doesn't deserve him.

She couldn't be more
than 16 years old, Brandon.

She was impulsive,
she made a mistake.

She abandoned her baby.
She deserves

a second chance, and I'm gonna
make sure she gets it.

You're going way
beyond the call here.

I don't think so.

So this isn't personal?

Well, of course it is, Brandon,

and I would think
it would be with you, too.

(knocking)

Did you hear?

Hear what?

Josh was charged with
misdemeanor drug possession.

Hmm, and I really thought
he'd buy his way out.

He tried.

Apparently justice is a shade
more blind than he thought.

Is he going to jail?
One year

or 250 hours community service.

I'm sorry he didn't get more.

It's finally over.

You think?

Look, Val, I know it's
the last thing you want,

but the After Dark wouldn't
be the same without you.

What, you're asking me

to come back?

Yeah, I am.

Like nothing ever happened?

No, no.

Not like that, but...

Like I'm not a victim here?

Like Josh going to jail

just kind of wipes
everything clean?

Hey, we're both victims here.

And we both deserve
to get on with our lives.

Well, tell me how
we're supposed to do that.

I mean, educate me on how
we're supposed to just

walk away from this
without feeling like

everything's upside down
and twisted.

I mean, explain
to me how the hell

we're supposed to go back
to the way things were!

'Cause I'm really dying to know.

Jasper's not a reliable
source, Brandon.

Forget Jasper.

David's song got huge
airplay on KZAB.

Maybe they liked it.

From an established band, maybe.
From a new band? Doesn't happen.

No.

Still sounds like
sour grapes to me.

Jasper's got
to be pissed

about being dumped
from the band.

If I could just get
confirmation,

we could run the story.

And if wishes were horses,
beggars would ride.

Do you know what I mean?

Take up thy bed and walk.

Do you know what I mean?

JANET:
She's on

to licorice.
Licorice?

Mmm, I love licorice.

(sniffs)

And she loves
someone else.

For you.
Thank you.

Which is exactly
why I've come to a decision

that I know I'm going to regret.

Purge, Brother Sanders.

Purge and ye
shall be freed.

Yeah, well, I'm going to send
her her letters back,

with a note explaining
how I got them.

Honesty?

An unusual policy for you.

Yeah, well, it kills me though.

Because it's over before I even
got a chance to meet her.

But...

she deserves
to know the truth, right?

The truth shall set you free.

GWINNET:
Hey, welcome back.

How're you feeling?

Better, thank you.

Remmington and his people are
still raving about your designs.

They think you're
the Second Coming.

Uh, that's what I wanted
to talk to you about...

the designs for Remmington.

They're spectacular,
just spectacular.

Um, is Danielle here?

'Cause I'd like her
to hear this.

Quit yesterday.

She quit? Why?

Something about, uh,
she didn't want to work

for a company
that didn't appreciate her.

Nice kid,

little bit of a flake.

No. She wasn't, actually.

See,

I hurt my back pretty badly
in that car accident,

and the painkillers
that the doctor gave me,

they made me real lethargic.

Just makes your designs
all the more impressive.

What I'm trying to tell you

is...

Those designs,
they weren't mine.

What?

I couldn't concentrate.

I couldn't do my job.

And I panicked.

I stole Danielle's designs.

(sighs)

I'm stunned, I...

The Child's Play campaign
showed so much flair,

I just assumed that...

No, those were my designs,
I swear it.

Donna, I don't know what to say.

Look, I can make this up to you.

I really can.

This will never happen again.

(sighs)

If you can just give
me another chance.

I wish it were that simple.

I'm afraid I have no choice.

You're fired.

(rock music plays)

I'm doing a series of articles
on Jasper's Law.

Talented bunch of guys.

Yeah, I've known
David Silver since

high school,
so I'm really glad

to see his career take off.

But one thing strikes me as odd.

"Keep it Together" got
an amazing amount of airplay

on your radio station.

Great song.

People respond to it.

Touches a chord and all that.

Yeah, yeah.

But you see,
I did a little checking around

and it didn't get
nearly as much

on any of the other stations
with the same format.

Similar format, not the same.

Right, right.

But the difference
in rotation was so great

that one might think
there was, uh...

a financial incentive
to playing the song.

Couldn't say
anything about that.

Couldn't say or don't know?

Look, Manny,

I know you're not the only
person involved

in making your station's
play list.

Is it possible that

someone might've been...

subsidized for playing the song?

For the record, I don't know
anything about subsidies.

What about off the record?

This is the music business.

Which means?

Well let's just say
the station

was... encouraged
to play the song.

Is the end result so bad?

Your friend's
a big success now, right?

Right.

Hi. How's Donna?

Hi. Uh...

Honestly, I-I'm not sure.

I took her to counseling.

Well, if it helps at
all, I know she feels

really bad about
what happened.

Well, somehow that only makes it
worse; she knows better.

Sometimes people get
overwhelmed.

They think they can handle
a situation,

and when they find
out they can't,

they panic.

They make mistakes.

It's bad enough when
that describes a teenage mom,

but as a description of Donna,

who's been asking all year to be
treated like an adult,

please, it's inexcusable.

Mm, you're so sleepy,
aren't you?

You know that expression
"sleeping like a baby"?

He didn't.

I think it's time to call
the people at Child Welfare.

Not yet.

Please.

I just, uh...

came by to get
the mother's address.

Kelly, we went through all of
this last night.

Look at this precious,
little angel.

Are you ready

to take his mother
away from him?

I have legal responsibilities.

Try telling him that

when he has a nightmare
and no mommy to hold him.

Or when he's sick, or
when he scrapes his knee.

Tell him about your
legal responsibilities then.

You have till 3:00,

not a minute longer.

Thank you.

(doorbell chimes)

Hi.

Is Leanne here?

Yeah, but she's got
the stomach flu.

It's really important
that I talk to her.

Leanne,
you've got company.

Don't let that cute baby

get too close to her.

You wouldn't want
him to get sick.

No, I wouldn't want that.

She probably

caught it at one of her
friend's parties.

The joy of being a teenager,
everything's a party.

Why don't you invite
your friend in? I'm sorry.

I didn't
catch your name.
Kelly.

Bye, Mom.

I'm going. I'm going.

What are you doing here?

The way I see it,
you made a mistake.

Things were happening so fast,
you didn't have a chance

to think about
what you were doing.

I don't know
what you're talking about.

You were in labor two days ago.

This is your baby.

I think you should go.

He has your eyes.

Don't close the door on him.

He needs you.

I'm 16.

I go to high school.

My mother doesn't even
know about this.

How do you hide a pregnancy?

I was too far along

before I realized
what was happening.

Then you just wear
a lot of big sweaters.

Leanne, you shouldn't be going
through this alone.

My mother's a nightmare, okay?

She's not good
at handling things.

She makes them worse.

This is your son.

I'm... I'm sorry.

(door shuts)

(indistinct conversations)

Nice look.

Grunge is a little retro,
but it works for you.

DAVID:
Brandon.

Yeah?
Dude, is this
incredible? I...

Frank got me the same guy that
produced Fiona Apple's album.

That's great.
We're gonna tape all this,

but were gonna use it in
the video because...
Yeah, yeah.

we need to piece it...
David, David, David,
look, I need to, uh,

I need to talk to you
for a second.

Fine. Why, what's up?
Uh...

A couple of the guys
at KZAB told me

they received money to play
"Keep It Together."

Well, I-I don't know what
you're talking about.

I never gave them anything...

Hey, look, I've never heard
anything so ridiculous.

Now, come on.
You've got a concert

to prepare for, all right?

DAVID: Brandon,
I can't believe you

would even bring this up
right now, Brandon.

I mean I got
to go on stage in...
Look, David, I just want you

to know the kind of people
you're getting in business with.

FRANK: Hey, look, David,
they played the song because

they liked the song,
end of story.

Now, you are the real deal,
and in a little while,

everyone's going to know that,
all right? Now come on.

Excuse me?

Can I have your autograph?

Yeah, sure. Where?

Right... here.

(sighs)

David...

I really thought

you were my friend, Brandon.

I am your friend, David.

Thanks.

Thank you.

You know I can
run the story,

even with your denial.

Oh, you certainly can,

but you'll torpedo
David's career forever.

Ooh...

I've already called
Child Welfare.

They're on their way.

You gave it your
best shot.

Sometimes people just don't
follow the right path.

I tried to explain to her that

she could still change her mind,
but she didn't care.

And you said it yourself,
she's only 16.

If she's old enough
to be having sex,

she should be old enough
to take responsibility.

I feel like

pressing charges.

I mean, she left her baby
on our doorstep.

What if I wasn't here?

No question,
she made a big mistake.

But she has to
live with that

for the rest of her life.

I think that's
punishment enough.

And what about
your legal responsibilities?

I'm honoring them,
but thanks to you,

I'm honoring my moral one
as well.

People let us down.

They disappoint us.
It's human nature.

But it doesn't mean
we give up on them.

Pam, hi. What are
you doing here?

I left the Wyatt
Foundation

two months ago,
moving to Child Welfare.

I always wanted to help people

bring children
into their lives.

So what's going
to happen to him?

He'll go to foster parents
for a year.

And then
if nothing's changed,

his foster parents
will be able to adopt him.

Or he'll move
to an open adoption.

What do you mean,
"if nothing's changed"?

The birth mother
has up to a year

to contact us
to get her baby back.

Up to a year?
After what she did?

It's nature
versus nurture.

And the state feels
very strongly

about the rights
of birth parents.

And what about his rights?
Or does no one care

about him once the paperwork's
finished?

We care very much.

But it's not a perfect world.

Well...

in this imperfect world,

I hope you will
give this baby's

future as much consideration
as you did his mother's rights.

Hey, what's the matter?

Eh, Brandon was just here.

He said some things.

What kind of things?

Things about my song
and the radio station.

I don't know,
he thinks

some payola was
involved or something.

Hmm. Was there?

Well, Frank says no, but I...

I don't know. I...

I just, I can't
stop thinking about it.

David, this is
your big night.

Can't you put it
out of your mind?
I've tried.

It's just, it's hard.

Look.

You're going to be
great tonight.

You're an amazing performer.

Thanks.

I'm sorry.

That was me.
No, David.

It's a kiss,
it's-it's no big deal.

It's just...
it's just that it is.

How can I help?

Tell me exactly
what happened that night.

I can't.

But we both know who can.

STEVE:
I'm sorry, Brandon.

I just don't
see the dilemma.

Run the story,
ruin David's career.

Don't run the story,

pretend we live
in a perfect world.

David's a friend
of ours.
Eh...

If his career
got a boost

just because of a little
wallet greasing,

what's the big deal?

The big deal, Steve,
is that payola is illegal.

Besides which,

David doesn't need it.

He's got talent.

But if we don't
blow the whistle on it,

there'll be a question mark
over his entire career.

Oh, careful, Brandon.

You may convince yourself
you're doing it for him.

Why else?

Jealousy.

Jealousy?

Yeah, jealousy.

Are you kidding me?

It's the best I can

come up with right now.

I can't believe you think

I don't want him
to be successful.

Prove me wrong.

Fine.

JANET:
Another letter from Jill.

Cherry.

No lie.

Mmm...

Oh, check it out.

She's gonna be in L.A. tomorrow,
and she wants to see me.

No, she wants to see Ted.

I guess she didn't get
your mailing, huh?

I feel like I know her
already, though.

She's smart, she's funny,

she's ambitious.

She's exactly
what I've been looking for.

Except she's looking
for somebody else.

Okay, the minute I see her,

I'll tell
her exactly who I am.

Who knows?

She might be glad I'm not Ted.

Not anymore.

He's arrived.

Ow!

Somebody help me!

Hey, guys!

Excuse me.
(crowd gasping)

GIRL:
Somebody help me! Oh!

Hey, hey, hey-- it's okay,
it's okay, it's...

You okay?
Are you okay?

Guys, come on!

Hey, you okay?
You okay?

Mm-hmm.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

(knocking at door)

(hushed):
Go away.

(knocking continues)

Go away.
(drawer slams)

Not a good time.

Yeah, it never is anymore.

Just leave, okay?

I can't do that.

Fine.

Welcome to hell.

Yeah, the doctor says the first
four days are the toughest.

Yeah, he was talking
about withdrawals,

not getting over
being fired.

They fired you
for being sick?

I stole someone's designs.

That's why they fired me.

Okay? 'Cause I'm a thief.

You can get through
this, you know.

You bet I can.

You want to make me the enemy
here, that's cool.

Fine. You're the enemy.

Great. I'm not leaving
till you give me the pills.

You want them so badly?

There! Now they're yours.

What?! I thought you
were leaving.

I am.

The minute you
get over this thing.

(faucet shuts off)

Yes.

Her arm is officially broken!

The paparazzi will definitely
get this out, man.

We could not have bought
better publicity.

(scoffs)
Unbelievable.

Thank you.

Wasn't a compliment.

I was referring
to your compassion.

I didn't realize you had
such a concern for others.

Remind me to
get you invited

to one of those
Save the Whale benefits.

Brandon was right, wasn't he?

As far as the
radio stuff.

I mean, hell,
you were in promotions.

That was your job, right?

To get the song played
no matter what it took,

even if it meant buying time.

You don't want to have
this conversation.

Isn't it enough
just to have a good song?

I don't make the rules.

But you sure as hell know how
to play by them, don't you?

Yeah.

If you walk out on this deal,
you may not get another one.

Really?
I thought I was a superstar.

Sure.

With the right packaging
and connections...

Cash?

David, think.

Without me, chances are

you'd end up giving
piano lessons

and praying for
that big break

that may never, ever come.

You know what? I... I don't need
to think about this anymore.

Um...

you can give your deal
to someone else.

Hey, pretty girl.

How you feeling?

Like myself again.

Finally.

Well, you got
through it,

and I am really
proud of you.

I'll come home now.

You are home.

(laughing)

"Sewer System's
Dirty Little Secret"?

Pretty catchy,
don't you think?

Um...

not compared
to "Payola Scandal Exposed."

Why aren't you running
that story?

(sighs)

'Cause I want you
to be successful, David.

You deserve it.

But I didn't before?

All right.

I may have gotten

my priorities mixed up
for a minute,

forgotten which team I was on,

but I straightened it out.

Yeah, I...

I know. I appreciate it.

(sighs)

I quit Jasper's Law.

Dumped the band
for a solo career.

Classic move.

No.

Actually, um...

I didn't just dump the band.

I-I-I dumped the...
the business.

Your contract, your record deal?

All of it, yeah.

(sighs)

I don't know what to say.

(laughs) How about you'll...
you'll print the story?

As a... a warning,

you know, to people
who think overnight success

comes without a price.

What are you doing here?

I needed to ask you
about something.

And I want an honest answer.

That's all I've ever given you.

What exactly happened
that night?

We've already been over this.
I know.

In court, with lawyers
and Josh twisting the truth,

but you and I have never really
gone over it together.

And why should we?

Because I need to know.

That we had sex?

That I was responsible
for that sex.

That-that I invited it,
that it was my fault.

But it wasn't--
Josh drugged you.

Then tell me that, please.

(sighs)

It was late.

I was angry at Donna.

I got wasted.

Josh's fiancée called,

so we decided
to give him some privacy.

We both went upstairs
to my office,

and the moment I got
through the door,

you pulled me down on the couch.

Wait, I pulled you?

Well, I thought
you did,

but now I know you just stumbled
and reached out for balance.

So you thought I wanted it.

Like I always want it.

Valerie Malone,
professional good time, right?

You're not
listening to me.

I kissed you, okay?

I kissed you.

Did I kiss you back?

You were drugged.

You're not answering
the question.

Look, you smiled, okay?

You smiled.

It's not your fault.

I believe that.

And I believe it
wasn't your fault, either.

Hi, Jill.
Uh, I've read all your letters,

and you're really
a terrific person,

but... I'm not Ted.

Too honest.

(groans)

Maybe she'll be ugly.

Yeah, a witch with a big hump
on her neck and...

some noxious toxic
broccoli funk about her.

(car approaching)

I am so sorry.

My plane was late,
and the hotel

was insane.

God. (chuckles)

You are even better-looking
than I thought you'd be.

Jill.
Oh, good.

I was going to be so embarrassed
if you weren't Ted.

Who else would I be?

(laughing)

Come on.

Oh, boy.
Nice flowers.

Oh, hey,
they're for you.

Thanks.

I was next door getting coffee.

Nat said you're
reopening tomorrow.

Well, I figured
it's time to move on.

I agree.

Is that why you're here?

To tell me you're moving on?

Yeah. It is.

From the trial, the pills...

everything.

You think we can do that?

When I took the pills,

I confused having no feelings
for feeling great.

I got rid of the pain,

but I ended up feeling
nothing at all.

I know.

This isn't gonna be easy.

It might even be painful.

After what I just went
through...

doesn't scare me at all.

It doesn't scare me, either.

Hey.
Hi.

Welcome home.
What's the occasion?

Well, I thought we had
a lot to celebrate.

(sighs)

Probably not
as much as you think.

Um, I quit the band.

I know. Brandon told me.

And I'm very
proud of you.

Really? After all you
did to make it happen?

David, I want you to be happy.

And if that means
not having a record contract

or working at a car wash...

Not gonna be barbecuing
in Malibu anytime soon.

Well, the sun's not
good for you anyways.

So...

Did you talk to Noah?

Yeah, he took me
through all of it.

And?
Well, it took a lot

of convincing, but...

I now know
it wasn't my fault.

Or Noah's.

It was Josh.

Well, I'm glad you know.

I also want
you to know

what happened between me
and Noah was the drug.

I didn't want it to happen.

I know.

Do you?

Yeah.

I mean, it's nice to hear.

So where do we go from here?

Well, I have a suggestion.

We, we don't have to.

No, I want to.

Are you sure?

Yeah.

Man, that kid
required a lot of stuff.

"That kid."

Do you realize he doesn't
even have a name?

He will.

Thanks to you.

Thanks to me,
he may end up with a mother

who abandoned him.

Thanks to you, he'll probably
end up in a great home

with loving, adoptive parents.

All this stuff...

When you have a baby, I
don't even think you notice.

I know I wouldn't.

Our baby would be
crawling by now.

Kel...

I know.

It wasn't meant to be.

It wasn't the right time.

But I think about it.

All the time.

Kel, we'll...

we'll have a family...

When we're ready.

I'm ready now, Brandon.

I've given this

a lot of thought,
and I've decided

to apply to be
a foster parent to that baby.

That's a...

that's a huge decision.

I know.

And I'll understand if... you
don't want to be a part of it.

Kel...

(sighs)

Losing our baby was

incredibly painful.

And that was

only after a few weeks.

I don't even want
to think about

how hard it would be
after a year.

That's a risk
I'm willing to take.

I want that baby.
