Original subtitles

Oh, uh, hey, yeah, you can just put...

Um...

Yeah, anywhere, that's fine. Uh...

Thank you, I appreciate it.

Can I sleep here?

Yeah, come inside.

For He carries our sickness.

And He takes our infirmities.

And when children of God believe,

the angels go to work.

Who do we have here, Charlie?

Mother, this is Greta.

She's been burdened by terrible bursitis.

So young.

I'm on my feet a lot for work,

but my doctor's telling me that I need to quit.

Oh, no, no, no, you will never quit.

Because God doesn't ever quit.

Never.

Every trace of bursitis goes.

The power of God

is coursing through this body.

The power of the Holy Ghost.

Yes! Yes!

Oh.

How do you feel, darling?

I'm tingling.

Oh, that is the power of God.

Come, let's take a walk.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, you're gonna have to walk a lot faster

to keep up with me.

I feel like I'm 18 again.

Let's not push that, dear.

Who's next?

- Who is our next believer? - Brother Rodney.

He's from Laguna. He's a, uh...

Tax attorney. Honestly...

my wife made me come here.

Ah.

Well, God loves skeptics.

Isn't that right, Charlie boy?

That's right, Mother.

Brother Rodney's been suffering for years

- from pernicious... - Oh, no, don't tell me, don't tell me.

- Gout. - You know that how?

The big guy whisper

into your ear?

And also how you're favoring your left hoof.

Lord...

...oh, help the Holy Spirit work through...

Oh!

Oh...

What the heck?

Uh, dispatch said

some kind of miracle service went south.

They ever go north?

Thank God! Mervin Egan. I run facilities here.

What happened?

Sister Ann was in the middle of her act...

I... I mean, service... and then people started, I don't know,

dropping, puking, dancing?

Isn't that kind of normal?

Not like this.

- Ow! In the name of the... Ow! - Okay, okay.

Was there something in the communion wafers?

Looks like some kind of mass mania.

All right, let's start assessing and triage,

See if we can figure out what's causing this.

Hen, Chim, take a look at our friend here.

Buck, Eddie, you're on the flanks.

I think you mean Buck and Ravi.

- Oh, yeah, Ravi, sorry. - I'm used to it.

Hey! Hey! Whoa, whoa, whoa! Sir! Sir!

Whoa! Hey!

Hey!

I got you.

C collar!

Uh, hey, excuse me, ma'am.

Ma'am? Ma'am, hey, hey, hey, hey!

- I got you, I got you. - Hey.

The woman from the display outside?

And from the banner up there? I don't see her anywhere.

Oh, I shooed Sister Ann and her son to the tour bus

when everything went nuts. They're fine.

Cap?

They're running gas generators backstage.

Are you running gas generators indoors?

I had to. Every time Sister Ann's circus comes to town,

I can barely keep up the lighting package.

Okay, we're looking at carbon monoxide poisoning.

That explains the euphoria.

And the nausea.

I want everybody in full SCBAs.

Buck, Eddie, kill the gennies and let's get

this place ventilated. Open doors now!

We need to evacuate this whole building immediately.

Let's go!

Ravi.

Buck and Ravi.

We got the fans going.

500 PPM and falling.

All right, good work, guys.

He's tachycardic.

Sats are down to 91.

All right. Let's start O2 at 10 liters.

All right, over here.

Crank it to 15.

Come on, buddy, come on, buddy!

Come on, there we go.

Welcome back.

Oh, thank God.

Are these people gonna be okay?

Yeah, I think so.

This could've been a lot worse, huh?

It's a miracle it wasn't.

I'm coming, Jesus!

I'm coming!

- Sister Greta! - How did she get up there?

- Oh, good. - Oh, God.

Buck, I need you up on the aerial.

Eddie... Ravi,

I want you up on the roof and make sure it's stable.

- Chim, why don't you go with him? - Copy that.

How's it going up there, Ravi?

It's really top-heavy with her up there, Cap.

I guess they don't make these things like they used to.

We need to get lines on this thing ASAP.

Chim, bag!

Ma'am? Ma'am, I... I'm gonna need you

to stop climbing.

No, thank you, Satan.

Cap, she thinks I'm Satan.

Well, tell her you're not.

Ma'am, I'm... I'm not Satan. My name is Buck.

Get thee behind me!

Whoa, whoa, whoa, okay, hey, hey!

J... Just hold still.

How's that line looking, Ravi?

Still working on it, Cap.

Buck, talk to me.

Yeah, I... I'm trying, Cap.

I see Him.

- Jesus. - She won't listen to me.

- Line secure! - I see His face in the clouds.

He's calling to me!

- He's... He's... - Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, hey, hey.

Whoa, whoa, whoa...

Okay, okay. Just... just hold still.

- Easy, easy, easy. - Guys!

I don't think it's gonna hold!

Where the hell am I?

You're... you're suffering from carbon monoxide poisoning.

Oh, my God!

How did I get up here?

All you needed was some fresh air, wh... which now you have.

- So that's a good thing. - It doesn't feel good!

Ma'am, I'm... I'm gonna need you to just...

just give me your hand, okay?

It's so high!

It's high. It's high up.

I need you to relax.

And just reach out your hand.

I can't. I'll fall!

Sister Greta.

Be still.

There.

This is the time for you

to come down from the cross.

That work has already been done.

Save me, Sister Ann!

You're already saved, honey.

Jesus is with you.

All you have to do

is go into His loving arms.

So I'm guessing Buck is Jesus in this metaphor?

I know you can do this.

Have faith.

It's okay.

Believe.

Here you go.

And reach out.

I got you.

I got you.

There you go, there you go, I got you.

Thank you,

Sweet Lord Jesus.

You're welcome.

- You did... you were very brave. - Thank you.

She's kind of something, isn't she?

Yeah, she's something.

I think this belongs to you.

It belongs to the city.

You look well, Bobby.

Thank you.

So do you, Ann.

Charlie.

Excuse me.

Cap, you know her?

I used to.

That's my mother.

All right, 118, let's pack this up, let's go!

Okay, Frida Kahlo, time for bed.

- Let's say goodnight to Uncle Buck. - Good night, Uncle Buck.

Ah, good night, sweetie.

Hey, I was thinking I was gonna bake

some banana muffins for breakfast.

- How does that sound? - I love bananas.

Breakfast? So we're staying another night, are we?

- Unless that's a problem. - No.

Of course not. I just thought you were

moving to Eddie's house, not ours.

- Say good night, Mommy. - Good night, Mommy.

I'll come read you a story as soon as you brush your teeth.

Okay?

Look, I... I don't have to stay another night.

I can just get a hotel.

Why would you need a hotel?

My lease was up on the loft three days ago.

You know what, I like having a strong man

in every room of my house right now.

She's not coming back, Maddie.

Braeburn, she... she can't hurt you anymore.

You know, eventually

you are gonna have to sleep in your new place.

Uh...

Yeah, you know, I... I think that might be the issue.

It doesn't feel like my new place.

It feels like Eddie's old one,

which is proving to be trickier than I expected.

Everywhere I look is just

one big reminder that my best friend is gone.

And it...

it sucks.

Okay, as your big sister, I'm gonna have to ask

that you do something very uncomfortable.

Go home.

Make new friends.

When were you gonna tell me about this?

- I just did. - No, I mean, when were you gonna

tell me that your mother wasn't dead?

I didn't say that she was.

Okay, so I guess I just assumed,

given the way you talk about her, or rather, don't.

Well, I don't talk about her because I don't want

to think about her. I don't want her in my life.

Which countertop do you like?

- I think we should pick between these two. - Bobby...

Look, Hank said we have to pick today to stay on schedule.

Unless you want the granite one.

Then you have to pick by Wednesday.

Yeah, isn't that just another way to say

that we have to pick by today?

Look, I like the granite.

You can set a hot pan down on it no problem.

No searching for a trivet.

Yeah, well, that's fantastic,

but you're not changing the subject.

All right, what do you want to know?

Okay, for one thing,

how come you two don't speak?

We don't speak because every time we do, I get

this kink in my neck that lasts for, like, a month.

She's a fraud and a con artist.

It's embarrassing.

So you don't think she's sincere?

I think she sincerely enjoys living the high life.

And those gullible people that she fleeces

from town to town?

They pay the bill.

Well, when's the last time you even spoke to her?

Back when she brought her carny act to the Twin Cities

right before Marcy and I were gonna get married.

We went to see her.

Marcy wanted me to invite her to the wedding.

- And did you? - I went backstage.

Talked for about three seconds, then we were fighting.

So, no, I did not.

- And that was it? - No.

Then, after the apartment fire,

I received a condolence letter

on official Ann Hutchinson Ministry stationary.

I didn't even read it to the end.

Why not?

I was afraid there might be a pitch for a donation.

Bobby...

She's your mother.

Don't you think it's time that you mended fences?

Why would I think that?

Maybe there's a reason why your fire company

got the call to go to that church.

Do you think that God poisoned 400 people

with carbon monoxide to facilitate a reunion?

He works in mysterious ways.

Uh, hey.

Rockstar Ravi.

Hey, Buck.

Killer glass work, man.

No streaks, like the wall is barely even there.

Uh, thank you.

Oh, I, uh...

I see you went with the swivel squeegee.

Yeah, good choice, respect.

Are you about to ask to borrow money, or...?

What? Uh, no.

Look, if this is a prank, dude

just get to the punchline 'cause I got to move on to the laundry.

No, no, hey, this is not a prank.

I... I would never prank you.

What about the time you put

packing peanuts in my locker?

Or, uh, ketchup packets in my boots?

I did do that.

But that's not what this is.

So what is it then?

I just, I thought it might be cool if we could

kick it some time, you know, uh, me and you.

You want to kick it?

- Uh-huh. - With me?

Why not? You seem like a fun guy.

Yeah, I am a fun guy.

But you're just now noticing this?

To be fair,

it took me a minute to warm up

to Eddie, too, when he first got here.

How long?

Almost a...

a whole-whole shift.

I've been here four years.

Do you like sports?

Depends.

Uh, how about pick-up basketball?

Not really.

Me, neither, that was always Eddie's game.

In fact, I hate it.

Wow, we are so on the same level.

What about "frolf"?

Frisbee golf.

Yeah, you just aim your disc at a basket

and...

Wha... what about, um, drinking?

Do you like to drink?

In moderation.

I know a great place.

We should go after work.

- It'll be fun. - Excuse me.

I'm sorry to interrupt, but I'm looking for Captain Nash.

Sure. Can... can I ask what it's about?

Just tell him his brother would like to speak with him.

Wow, I don't remember having a kitchen

like this back in Dad's firehouse in Minnesota.

Yeah, well, none of Dad's guys could cook.

Thank you.

It's good to see you, Bobby.

It's good to see you, Charlie.

How are you?

How's Deborah?

Oh.

That's a good question.

I... have no idea.

Deborah was two wives ago.

- Two? - Life on the road, man.

Well, I guess there's only room for one lady in your life.

Yeah, there is some truth to that.

How about you?

Uh, Athena and I are almost five years married.

And she is a sergeant. LAPD.

First responders in the house.

You have any kids?

- Uh, two step-kids. - Wow.

That is fantastic, Bobby.

I'm really happy for you.

- Thank you, Charlie. - You know, I...

I thought about reaching out so many times.

But I... I just, I didn't think you wanted me to.

It's all right, it's...

not like I was making a big effort, either.

- I'm sorry. - Well, and yet,

- seems almost providential, doesn't it? - Mm.

You know, that you'd be the one sent to save us.

It's kind of funny, Athena...

- said something similar. - Did she?

Well, she sounds like a smart lady.

Yeah. Anyway, I... I go where they send me.

So, uh, Mom...

she wants to see you.

Why don't you just come to lunch?

Come on, bring your wife.

I don't think that's a good idea.

We're only gonna be in town for three more days.

Here's my number.

All right? Just think about it.

Wow.

- Dad would be so proud of you. - Mm.

Mmm.

Mm-mm.

No, of course we couldn't

just meet them at the restaurant.

She's got to show off her fancy hotel suite.

Remember what we talked about.

She reached out to us.

I'll try.

Mm.

Okay.

- Ah, Bobby. - Charlie.

You must be Athena.

- Nice to meet you. - And you.

She's, uh, just finishing up here.

The camera always has to be at eye level or above.

- Mother? - Nobody wants to see

a cadaverous-looking faith healer.

Oh, my God.

- It's Athena, yes? - Yes.

I knew Bobby

would be marrying up, but you

are a jewel.

Well, so are you.

And there is my baby.

My Bobby.

Not a glimpse in years,

and then twice in one week. Ah.

Mother.

Well, let's sit.

I... I thought we were going to lunch.

Yes, we are, but I made the reservation

for 3:00 so that we can just sit and talk.

Anybody want something to drink?

Oh, uh, water's fine.

Same, Charlie. Thanks.

Well...

...here we all are, together,

about to feast.

It reminds me of Luke 15.

- Thank you. - Luke 15.

The Parable of the Prodigal Son.

Is that... is that how you like to see me?

It's a beautiful hotel.

Well, our God is an abundant God.

That's one way of putting it.

Well, next time, we get to host.

I mean, that's if our house ever gets finished.

Oh, are you building a home?

How delightful.

Someone burned the last one down.

Not you, I trust.

Ann, um, I have to confess

that when Bobby and I first got together, we didn't...

You didn't know I existed.

Not until yesterday.

- But I have done a little research. - Oh?

Don't worry, she didn't run your rap sheet.

He's joking.

Uh, he's actually not.

Uh, Bobby has always thought

I was a fraud. Isn't that right, son?

I think you are very good at what you do.

What about you, Athena?

What do you think? Are you a believer?

Well, I have looked at some of your YouTube channel,

and, uh, well,

it's clear that

the people who come to you

do get something out of it.

You wonder whether I'm actually healing the afflicted.

Well, let me explain.

There is a paucity

of hope in the world today.

And what is faith in God

without having hope for something better?

I give hope for healing.

I stoke the fires of faith

because, well, I don't know

how people can get better without hope.

So the answer is no,

she doesn't actually heal anyone.

Well, maybe we should, uh,

- head for the restaurant? - Yep.

Um, Athena,

are you a churchgoer?

- Southern Baptist. - Oh!

Bobby's father was a Roman Catholic.

Oh, he dragged those boys to Our Lady Of The Sorrow

and Sacred Heart.

You know, really anywhere that he could

- get his sins absolved. - Really, Mom?

Mother, you said you weren't going to be

bringing up Dad.

Oh, that's right. I forgot.

We're not supposed to ever mention

the name of the sainted Tim Nash.

Yeah, please don't. He's not here to defend himself.

If I recall,

I am the one who defended you from him.

Yeah, until you walked out.

You chose to stay.

Well, somebody needed to.

He made his own choices.

And I will not

apologize for leaving.

And I will not apologize

for not crawling into the casket with him.

Like I did, you mean?

Well, you did follow in his footsteps.

Is this why you invited us here, to pick a fight?

Maybe we should start over.

It's a little late for that.

Um,

what makes them think that I invited them?

"Blessed be the peacemaker."

You arranged this?

Of course he did.

Why would I think, after all this time,

that you would finally take even a little responsibility

for walking out on us?

I have worked

so hard for so many years

to accept my failings, as well as those around me,

to accept them and forgive them.

Dad's failings especially. But you,

you're like some kind of sheer cliff face

I don't even think I can climb.

Or want to.

You stand there, you present yourself

like a mountain, immoveable.

Everybody has to come to you. Your sons, your flock.

Well, this is the last time I do. And you're right,

I do think you're a fraud, but not as a preacher.

As a mother.

Athena, I gotta go.

So, Eddie pays the tab,

we both run out to the parking lot,

and there's a boot on my front tire.

Damn. That sucks.

Yeah, so-so, obviously, at this point,

I'm like, "We're not gonna make the game."

And Eddie goes, "Where is your spare?"

And I kid you not, five minutes later,

the spare is on, we're driving down the road,

and the old tire is sitting on the side of the curb,

boot still on.

Isn't that illegal?

What? No, no, it's not illegal.

Eddie would never do something illegal.

Eddie has a Silver Star.

Wasn't he in some kind of a underground fight club?

That was ages ago and he had

a ton of stuff going on.

Drink!

- Come on. - Have I mentioned

how much I hate this game?

The loser usually does. Thank you very much.

- Drink. - I mean, who even plays quarters, anyways?

Eddie brought it from El Paso. He said it's huge in Texas.

Come on, bottoms up.

Ravi. Ravi.

Ravi.

Okay.

Your turn.

You know what? Um,

I think I'm gonna switch to beer.

All right? You want anything?

- Uh, yeah, I'll take a beer. - Okay.

Hey, uh, can I get two IPAs

whenever you get a chance? No rush.

Yes!

Hey, hey, hey, look who I found.

Tommy.

Take a seat. Come on, please.

So,

I know you guys probably have

a lot of catching up to do,

so, uh...

Bye.

Funny, I kind of feel like I was

just dumped again.

So...

how are things?

Things are good. Some stuff has happened.

My sister was abducted.

She's... she's back now. She's fine.

Sh... She's pregnant, in fact.

The two things are

not connected.

Uh... how about you?

Same.

How's everybody at the 118?

Yeah, good.

You know, just adjusting to life without Eddie.

Diaz left?

Yeah, he, uh, he went to be with his son in El Paso.

I figured he would have told you, no?

No, he pretty much stopped speaking to me

after you and I broke up.

You know, I've been fighting

the urge to call you for months.

No way.

In fact, I...

was driving by your place the other day.

Actually, you weren't.

- I wasn't? - No,

I don't live there anymore.

You got a new place?

Yeah, I did.

You, uh,

you wanna see it?

Wait. Is this Eddie's place?

It was. I'm, uh, I'm subletting.

Well, I love what you've done with it.

You want me to give you the tour?

Sure.

Hey.

Hi.

Uh... I... I thought you left.

Not without feeding you.

You didn't need to do all this.

- Uh, where'd you get the food from? - Corner store.

There's coffee.

How did you even find the coffee maker?

The box marked "coffee maker" was the tip-off.

Ah, you are so perceptive.

Mm-hmm.

So, how'd you sleep?

Honestly? That was the best night I've had in this place.

- Mm. - To be fair, it's also the first night

I've had in this place, but, uh, still.

And... and listen, uh...

just wanted to say last night was great.

Don't worry, I... I know it doesn't change anything.

Why not?

- What are you saying? - I'm saying...

what are you doing on Saturday?

You want to try again?

I mean, I'm... I'm not ready to move in or anything.

It kind of seems like you aren't, either.

And... and you're not, um...

You're not scared I'm gonna,

I'm gonna break your heart anymore?

Not as much,

now that the competition's out of the way.

- Wait, what do you mean, "competition"? - No, I'm just,

- I'm mostly kidding. - Mostly kidding about what?

- Never mind. - No, wait, I... I want to know.

Come on. Competition with who?

Come on, Evan. Don't make me say it.

Wait. Eddie?

I mean, you're living in the guy's house.

Okay, this is not his house. He was a renter.

And he's straight.

Okay.

You know, I don't have to want to sleep

with everyone I have feelings for.

And I don't have to have feelings

for everyone I sleep with.

Got it.

Whoa, um...

Wait. Hey, wh...

What's happening?

I have a shift later.

Tommy...

Haven't thanked you for last night.

It was fun.

_

_

_

Okay, we got a robocall from a med-alert pendant.

We're looking for an Elmer Caldwell.

Has hypertension and a coronary stent.

LAFD!

Anybody here?

Elmer?

LAFD. Anybody home?

Elmer!

Hey, Cap, should I make entry?

All right, before we start

smashing anything, everybody fan out,

start checking doors and windows. Let's go.

- Copy you. - Yeah, copy you.

LAFD!

- I think I hear him. - Yeah.

Cap, we found our patient.

- Copy that. - Sir?

We're here to check you out.

Me?

I didn't call for anybody.

Uh, maybe you didn't, but this pendant did.

Oh, right. Come on, let's get him up.

Three, two, one.

What a nuisance. My wife makes me wear it.

Uh, shortness of breath and chest pain.

I don't have any chest pain.

You're clutching your chest.

And you look like you're in pain.

Look, it's not a heart attack.

Hen, Chim, let's check him out just to be safe.

Hey, sir?

We're just gonna check your vitals, okay?

- We're gonna give you some oxygen. - Okay.

Can you take that glove off and let me borrow your finger?

Sure, sure.

Here you go.

Heart rate is 110.

BP is 150/85, but no arrhythmia.

S... See? I'm perfectly...

All right. Ravi, make sure to get that gurney in here

- so we can travel the patient. - Yeah.

I'm thinking angina, most likely from exertion.

One way to find out. Nitro?

All right, sir.

We're just gonna spray one spritz under your tongue.

All right, down to 95 BPM. How are you feeling, sir?

Much better.

I guess your wife was onto something after all.

What?

Uh, the... the medical pendant.

Uh...

- Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! - Whoa!

What the... Whoa!

- Oh. Hey, hey. - What the hell?

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

Guys, guys, guys. Let's get her out.

Uh...

Oh, my God.

What is this? Elmer?

Hello, Suzanne.

- All right. Let's get her on a Lifepak. - Yeah.

Ma'am, do you remember how you got here?

Am I in the garden?

You were under the garden.

The last thing I, I remember is,

we were eating sweet potato soup,

but it smelled funny and,

and I started to feel dizzy.

It didn't have a bitter aftertaste

and burn a little going down, did it?

Uh, yeah, how did you know that?

Sounds like cyanide.

- Cyanide? - Buck, Ravi, restrain Mr. Caldwell.

Wait.

Dispatch, I want LAPD here on scene right now.

Elmer? You?

What do you want me to say?

I gave up everything for you.

My whole life. And you try to take it?

Boo-hoo!

Long-term relationships are hard.

All right, guys, get him over.

I don't think this one is fake, Cap.

Yes. Roll him over.

Yeah, he's in full arrest.

Buck, grab me the paddles in my bag.

Yeah. On it.

All right.

Charging. All right, clear.

Charging. Clear.

Nothing. Going again. Charging.

Clear.

Oh, I should have left him long ago.

He's been trying to bury me alive

for 42 years.

Think of the life I could have had

if I'd gotten out sooner.

You're out now.

I mean, what's that even supposed to mean?

I'm... I'm living in Eddie's old house,

therefore, I must be in love with him?

- Are you? - In love with Eddie?

It wouldn't be so crazy.

Except that I'm not.

As much as everyone seems to want me

to be hopelessly pining for my straight best friend,

it just isn't like that.

I mean, does... does not having him in my life...

and in the field... leave a big hole?

Yeah, it does. Sure.

Okay, so, did you explain that to Tommy?

In the meanest way possible.

I understand him feeling threatened

by what me and Eddie have, but...

he seemed so relieved he was gone.

It pissed me off.

It felt like he was accusing me of something.

Is... is this what he's been thinking

the whole time we were together?

I don't know.

It just, it sucks, okay?

That... that was the first night I was actually able

- to sleep in this place. - Okay. You know what?

Maybe you shouldn't be living there.

I mean, you said that you haven't even unpacked yet.

Yeah. Um...

I... I think maybe I don't want to unpack,

'cause as soon as I do that,

it means...

Eddie and Chris aren't coming back.

For real.

I should call him, huh?

Yeah, that's what I've been saying.

- It's not like he moved to Mars. - No, not... not Eddie.

I mean, I... I will call him, but...

Tommy.

I should apologize. He's probably right.

I was using him as a distraction so I didn't have to feel alone.

Not the best reason to get back together with someone.

No.

Maybe it's time you learn the lesson again.

How to be alone.

I hate that lesson.

So, you think you've come to see

Ann Hutchinson?

I've got news for you.

She is the most ordinary person

you will ever see in your life.

I was born...

...a nobody.

No purpose.

A failure as a wife,

hopeless as a mother.

So if you think...

...that you came here and I was going to do something for you,

leave now.

I have no power to heal.

You were all healed

before you came here.

It has nothing to do with me.

We are all completely dependent

on the power of the Holy Spirit.

Some... Somebody had a healing from emphysema

while I was speaking.

Someone else's back pain has been healed.

There's no pain in his body now.

And there's something going on in the,

in the wheelchair section.

I don't, I don't know, I...

Mother.

Mother? Help! Somebody help.

- Move back. Give me some room. - Bobby...

- Charlie, call 911. - Yeah, okay.

See if you can find an AED.

Mom, you stay with me. You stay with me.

It's good that you were there.

That you were with her.

Seeing her up there, Athena...

Whatever this thing is she does, she's made for it.

And she never would have found it

if she'd stayed married to my dad.

You miss him.

Yeah, sometimes I think I'm the only one who does.

And how's that kink in your neck?

Uh, like cement.

Oh, boy, you are not joking.

That just means she's still alive.

Uh. Bobby!

- Hey. - How is she?

Uh, she's stable.

She's, uh, fighting with the doctor.

Has this happened before?

- Oh, gosh, uh, no. - Charlie.

Not on stage.

Never on stage.

Okay, how sick is she?

Her oncologist says it's terminal.

She was diagnosed last year.

When were you going to tell me?

Never.

That's what she wanted.

But when you turned up on that call, it...

...it really felt like a sign.

There was a chance you two might reconcile.

How are you holding up?

It's the end of the world as I know it.

But that's what I get for devoting my life to Mom.

Maybe you got lucky.

Dad set you free a lot earlier.

I'm not so sure about that.

She wants to see you.

And yes, it really is her asking.

Mom.

Bobby.

How are you feeling?

- Oh, I'm much improved. - Mm.

Uh, actually, I'd like you to do me a favor.

I'd like you to speak to the doctors.

And tell them you're the LAFD fire captain,

and that I'm doing fine.

Because I have to be in Vegas tomorrow afternoon.

Don't you think you should cancel that?

Charlie told me you're not fine.

He told you about the cancer?

Yeah.

Snitch.

Well, that spoils your birthday surprise.

I think you should be getting sustained treatment,

and you can't do that if you're traveling all over the country.

Why don't you stay here in L.A. with me?

Honey, it's Stage 4.

No treatment is gonna do anything for me at this point.

It... it would take a miracle.

Yes. All right.

I recognize the irony.

I'm sorry.

I'm not.

When I get called home

to meet my Savior...

...it will be the most joyful day for me.

I think He will have a couple questions for you.

Oh, that's fine.

Because I have some for Him, too.

I'll bet you do.

The fact that you came here

to the church tonight...

...meant so much to me.

Well, I came there to apologize.

I didn't want those things that I said to you

to be the last words between us.

Oh, you mean that I was a fraud as a mother?

Well, I've heard a lot worse.

It was wrong.

And I have been guilty of breaking half a commandment

for the last 40 years.

Half?

"Honor thy father and mother."

I haven't been fair to you.

I am glad that you didn't climb into Dad's coffin with him.

And you were right to get out when you did.

Thank you for saying this.

I'm so sorry

I didn't get to save him.

You know,

sometimes all you can do is save yourself.

Do you know how much I've missed you?

I have missed you too, Mom.

I love you,

my baby boy.

I love you, too.

Now, would you help me plot my escape?

You have got to be kidding me.
