(slow dramatic music)

(gentle music)

(phone buzzing)

(dramatic music)

- A journey of 1,000 steps
begins with a single hack.

You have to breathe like the falcon.

(machine beeping)

(upbeat music)

(dramatic music)

(timer beeping)

Ah. Hello, firewall.

(phone buzzing)

(woman sighing)

(dramatic music)

Transferring information now.

Come on.

(triumphant music)

- We're in.

(Falcon vocalizing)

We're in.

(gentle music)

(upbeat music)

(jogger thudding)

- (grunts) Dude! Really?

(phone ringing)

- [Woman] Hey, girl. Hello?

- Hello?

- Hey, it's Steph.

- Steph?

- Stephanie Cooper.

I mean, I know we haven't
talked for months,

but I am still one of your best friends.

- Oh, hey, Stephanie.

How can I help you?

- How can you help me?

You called me, remember?

- Um, nope. You called me.

- Oh, I did?

I don't remember now. Huh.

- Wait a minute.

Actually, you know what?

I'm jogging and some loser bumped into me.

He must have bumped my
phone and called you.

- Oh, makes sense.

Anyway, how's it going?

It's been a while.

- I know, I know.

It's just, I've been really busy at work.

But, hey, can I call you back later?

- Sure.

It'd be fun to catch up.

You know what?

Maybe we can even get together sometime.

It's really not that
far if we meet halfway.

- Yeah, yeah. Maybe.

Hey, I'm just gonna
finish my run before work,

but I'll call you back later, okay?

- All right.

Nice talking.

- Yeah, you too.

(upbeat music)

Dr. Jakes.

- Good morning.

- Oh, Dr. Jakes,

we discovered an issue with
the equipment inventory

I was hoping you could shed some light on.

- Equipment inventory?

- Yeah.

It's a new requirement from the
external auditors this year.

All equipment purchases
greater than $10,000

need to be located and tagged.

- I can't talk with you
about this right now.

I have prior commitments.

- Dr. Jakes, it's important.

I have to present these findings

to the auditor in a few days.

- Hope, I said I'm busy.

- It's so strange.

So all these items have
been fully accounted for

except for these few pieces
of missing equipment.

- They had to have been
properly ordered and received

for them to show up on this list.

- Right.

- Have you asked Dr. Jakes?

- Mm-mm, no. Not yet.

Why don't we just check the lab records

and see what we can find out?

- Sounds good.

- Okay, I think that's everything.

Oh, and don't forget, your
cost cutting reductions

are due by the end of the week.

And if you have any
personnel decisions or cuts

or anything like that,
be sure and run them by HR

so Pam won't have any surprises.

Okay, I've got a conference call

with corporate in five minutes.

Everybody have a great day.

See you soon.

- I've not yet heard from you
regarding any personnel cuts.

- Well that's because I
don't plan to make any.

Without my research and development area

there is no new products division.

- That's not gonna fly very well

with Copeland or with Corporate.

- Well, that's of no concern to me.

- Okay, here's the authorizing documents.

The purchase requisitions,
purchase orders, and invoices.

It looks like it's all computer equipment

designed for laboratory correlations.

Very high-end techy stuff.

- Hmm, Langdon Laboratories.

(slow dramatic music)

I don't remember hearing that name before.

- Neither have I, but it looks like

all the items in question
were purchased from them.

- Yeah, I see that.

- So, what's our next step?

(keyboard keys clacking)

- Hey, I came by hoping you had some time.

- I'll call you right back.

- So we really need to talk today.

- Hope, I really am busy.

- Okay, well, I actually
just had some questions

about a company called
Langdon Laboratories.

It seems that we're missing
some items purchased from them.

- Well I don't know anything about that.

- Okay, well, it's just
gonna take a second.

- Hope, I really am busy.

Excuse me.

I have an outside appointment.

I'll be back in an hour or two.

- Okay, so we'll talk when you get back?

- That's fine.

- Wow, he's in a mood.

- Yeah.

- Okay.

- I've been giving it some thought

and I think I do have
some cost-cutting ideas.

Mm-hmm.

Yes, yes, I will.

Okay, I have to go, but I
will stop by your office

later this afternoon.

Okay.

(phone beeping)

Hello.

- Yes, this is Dr. Levitt.

I've got your test results.

- And?

- I need you to come into the office.

We need to talk.

- I don't have time for that right now.

Just tell me.

What's going on?

- David, we need to meet in
person as soon as possible.

- Okay then, tomorrow morning.

(phone beeping)

(slow dramatic music)

(item shattering)

(Falcon exhaling)

(keyboard keys clacking)

- Oh, hey.

I'm so glad you stopped by.

I have something I want to show you here.

- Not now.

I'm here for a different purpose.

You can put those away.

(footsteps tapping)

- What's going on here?

- This is never easy, but
you're being terminated,

effective immediately.

- What?

You can't do that.

- Yes, Hope, I can.

All the department heads have
been tasked with downsizing

to compensate for the cost
overruns of their departments.

And I've chosen to
eliminate your position.

- Well, that doesn't make any sense.

I'm your financial manager.

What's the basis of your decision?

- Well at this point, it doesn't matter.

- Well, it matters to me.

- Okay, look, I'm gonna have

the financial manager in marketing

oversee my research and development
department from here on.

- This doesn't have anything
to do with me, does it?

- You'll receive a fair severance package,

including six months'
salary and full benefits.

- Dr. Jakes.

- Sorry, Hope, but he had to make cuts.

He didn't want to.

It was orders from the top.

- No, there were irregularities
in Jakes' department.

Does this have anything to do with
why I'm being terminated?

- Absolutely not.

You heard him.

He's able to get another financial person

to cover your area.

- This isn't right.

I need to get-

- Security is outside waiting

to escort you to your exit interview,

at which time you'll be asked

to surrender your badge and key.

(slow dramatic music)

I'll see you in my office.

(Hope sighing)

- I can help you carry your
things out if you like.

- That's okay, I'm all right.

(Hope sighing)

- Most of your vitals are fairly good,

but your blood work indicates

you're starting into serious decline.

The chemo and radiation you've received

have slowed the disease,
but I'm afraid things

won't stay that way for long.

- How long?

(slow dramatic music)

- [Dr. Levitt] You know I can't give you

an accurate timeline.

I would say a few months,
possibly only weeks.

I'm sorry.

- What symptoms should I expect?

- Continued weakness,
fatigue, coughing, fever.

You'll know the disease is accelerating

when random bleeding occurs.

- And there's nothing else we can do?

- David, your mutant variation

of acute lymphoblastic
leukemia is extremely rare,

and in most adult cases proves fatal.

- Have you heard of chimeric antigen

receptor T-cell therapy?

- Of course, but that's
not an option in your case.

The T-cells are taken from
the patient's own blood.

You know that.

And your blood is contaminated.

- What about biological experimentation?

My own research indicates
that if we can find a survivor

who had the disease as a child

and is still in complete remission,

those blood cells could be used.

- The chances of you finding

that kind of match are
nearly non-existent.

You'd have to search virtually
every cancer database,

all of which are highly restricted

and require special authorization.

(slow music)

- Well, I'm highly motivated.

- God, please help me
find a way through this.

(dramatic music)

(David coughing)

- [Falcon] Falcon here.

How can I do ya?

- [David] I have another
assignment for you.

- [Falcon] Lay it on me.

- [David] The previous searches you ran,

I need to find any childhood
survivor of the same disease.

- [Falcon] Gotcha. What else?

- They need to have been in
remission for at least 20 years.

- Well that's pretty specific.

I'm gonna have to run database queries

on hundreds, if not thousands,
of hospital locations.

- Just do it.

My friend needs this medical help.

I'll pay your usual rate.

- You came to the right place, my friend.

I got the results back
from the previous request.

I'm sending that to you right now.

(David coughing)

- [David] Come on, I need an answer.

- From what you're telling me,

you don't really have much of a case.

- My boss targeted me
for some reason, okay?

I told him about the missing equipment,

and boom, the next day I'm terminated.

You don't find that suspicious at all?

- It depends.

Has there been downsizing

in any other departments at Darthon?

- Well yeah, some.

- Well then they are well within
their rights to let you go,

especially considering
that they're not planning

to refill your position.

You're gonna have to prove

that you were wrongfully
discriminated against.

- I do have documents back in my office

that prove the missing equipment
was received and paid for.

- It's no longer your office, Hope.

You've been let go.

- Right.

So what then?

- Let me see if I can talk

to some of the other partners in the firm

and come up with something.

But I can't promise anything.

- Okay. Thanks, Aunt Elizabeth.

I have never seen this
picture of you and Mom before.

(gentle music)

- [Elizabeth] Well that was
quite a bit before your time.

- Yeah.

I miss her more and more every day.

She left us too soon.

- Oh, that reminds me.

I came across this while spring cleaning.

It was a gift, a very special gift.

It seems a young man was highly interested

in a beautiful young lady.

And after putting him
off for quite some time,

she finally realized
that she loved him too.

This was a gift from your
father to your mother

on their first Valentine's Day.

- Thanks. This is very special.

- I'm remembering now that
she left it in my apartment

shortly before the accident.

She'd want you to have it, Hope.

(Hope sighing)

(phone buzzing)

- Hello.
- Hey, it's Danielle.

I'm so upset.

I don't understand what just happened.

It wasn't right.

- Hey, no, thank you.

That really means a lot.

- Is there anything I can do for you?

- Well, if you're willing,
I could use a little help

tracking down that missing equipment.

- Of course.

- Maybe you can check in receiving first

and find out exactly who signed for that.

I mean, that might shed a little
light on why I was let go.

- Sure.

I'll call back when I have something.

- Great. Thanks.

(Hope sighing)

(doorbell ringing)

- Michael and Allison.

- Hi.

- Hey, Bob.

- Hey, nice seeing ya.

- Hey, I wanted to drop a gift off

since I missed your retirement party.

- Ah, come on, you didn't have to do that.

- Well, I remembered how
much you liked golf, so...

- Wow.

Yeah, hey, anything to help my golf game.

(Michael laughing)

I really appreciate that.

- You got it.

So, Chief of Police to retirement, huh?

Any plans?

- Nope, I'm just taking it easy.

Like they say, one day at a time.

- Yeah, well, good for you.
- Yeah.

- All right.

Well I promised Allison some ice cream.

Isn't that right?

- Yay!

- Hey, lucky girl.

You have fun.

- Thank you.

- Good seeing you.
- Take care.

- Take care.

- Always good to see you, Bob.

- [Bob] Same.

- All right, let's go get some ice cream.

Come on.

(slow music)

(phone beeping)

- Hey, Stephanie.

No, I was actually thinking

about our conversation the other day.

I got some unexpected time off

and so I thought I would
just come home for a visit.

Tonight, if that's okay.

Okay, I'll see you then.

(upbeat music)

- [Announcer] This is 87.9 FM.

- [Radio Host] Forgiving is
always right and seldom easy.

Holding on to bitterness is
really like drinking poison and

waiting for the other person to die.

But when you can offer forgiveness,

that's where true healing can begin.

We're talking about all that and more on-

(radio beeping)

- Okay, really?

Easy for you to say.

- [Navigator] Continue on
I-96 for seven more miles.

(phone beeping)

(phone ringing)

- Hey.
- Hey.

Just thought I'd check in and let
you know I'm getting close.

- I can't wait to see you again.

- So, tell me, what's
changed since I left?

- Changed?

Girl, you haven't been home in forever.

Don't worry though, I'll
catch you up on things.

- Oh, I know you will.

I can't wait.

- So see you soon?
- Yeah.

It says I should be there
in about 15 minutes.

(Stephanie squealing)

(laughs) Okay, I'll see you then.

(phone ringing)

- [Falcon] Hello?

- What'd you find? Anything?

- Yeah, man, and I'll tell you,

it wasn't easy, even for Falcon.

It took most of the night.

- [Woman] Dylan, time to eat.

- [David] What was that?

- Nothing, man. Just tune it out.

- So what'd you find?

- I checked the databases for
cancer centers nationwide.

So far I've only found
three people who qualify.

- I only need one.

- First one's a flake.

- [David] What do you mean?

- Well, he's in remission,

but now he's somehow
contracted a different disease.

So I'm guessing you don't
want to hear about him?

- No, I need someone who is fully healthy.

- Second one's in San Diego.

He's in complete remission.

No other diseases.

- Good, good, good, good.

Tell me about him.

- He was in a car accident 11 days ago.

A couple broken ribs and
there's something wrong

with his leg, but otherwise he's golden.

- What part of fully healthy
did you not understand?

Do you not have any good news?

- Easy, man, I was getting there, okay?

- You said there were three.

What about the third one?

- Yeah, her name's Phyllis Kerney.

No other info on file.

- How can we find her?

- Well, that's the thing, man.

12 years ago she just disappeared.

- Disappeared?

What do you mean disappeared?

- Yeah, you heard me, gone.

No death certificate. Nothing.

She just vanished.

- [David] Then find her.

- I'm gonna need some more bread.

- What? Money?

I don't care.

- Your friend doesn't know how lucky he is

to have you helping him out like this.

- Look, it's more than a friend.

It's my brother.

- Oh, deep, man.

Anything I can do to help?

- Just tell me where I can find Phyllis.

- Okay.

(fist thudding)
(knife thudding)

- So I see your parents redid their decor.

Looks really nice.

- Yeah, finally, after all these years.

Makes house sitting
more enjoyable, I guess.

- Yeah, I bet.

So where did they go anyways?

- On a two-week cruise.

- Two weeks.

- Fancy, right?

- Oh wow.

Yeah, nice.

(Stephanie laughing)

- I see what you're doing.

Stalling so you don't have to tell me

what's really going on.

- What, can't I just make

a little impromptu trip
to see my best friend?

- Duh, of course.

It's just not like you to be spontaneous.

- Look, I am so tired.

I had a really long drive.

How about we just chill and have some fun?

- Of course.
- Okay.

Besides, you haven't told me

what life's like in small town USA now.

- Different since you
left for the big city

and climbed so far up
the corporate ladder.

(slow music)

I am so proud of you.

(David coughing)

(water lapping)

(phone buzzing)

- Hey, Danielle.
- Hey.

So, I was able to get
the receiving tickets.

- Oh, great.

Can you scan those and send them to me?

- Sure.

Also, I noticed something
really interesting.

- [Hope] What's that?

- All the equipment was
signed for as received

by none other than Dr. David Jakes.

- Uh...unbelievable.

(door thudding)

Yeah, okay, I have to go.

I'll call you back.

- Okay, you had a full night's sleep.

So what's going on?

- You know, you'd be like a
really awesome interrogator.

- Thank you.

- Okay well, no, honestly nothing.

I'm just taking a little
impromptu vacation.

- Hm.
- Hm.

- Okay.

How long are you here for?

- I don't know, maybe a week.

- (gasps) You know what?
I'm gonna go call my boss

and see if I can take some time off

so we can do something fun.

- Okay, sounds good to me.

(Stephanie laughing)

(slow music)

(David coughing)

- Just a reminder, you have
a meeting with Mr. Copeland

in 15 minutes and he wants you
to be in the conference room.

(David coughing)

(slow dramatic music)

- Have you found her yet?

(David breathing heavily)

- [Hope] So it seems that
the same guy who fired me

is the same guy who signed
for the missing inventory.

- Why would that matter?

- Because VPs don't sign
for received inventory.

No, most likely some lab
technician would do that.

Something is fishy.

- I understand, but that still

does not imply discrimination.

- Okay, well, I'm
gathering more information

about the company they purchased
from, Langdon Laboratories.

- Good. Keep me posted.

- [Hope] Yep, will do.

(phone beeping)

(Hope exhaling)

(slow dramatic music)

- It appears we're behind
on the testing phase

of our type two developmental drugs.

- Both Centilillium and
Cialate are on track.

- 90% of our future revenue depends

on the successful introduction
of these two products.

- Like I said, things are on track.

- Not according to this. They're not.

- We might have been somewhat delayed,

but we can easily make
that up in the next phase.

- This is important.

I need you to be front and center on this.

- I have been somewhat distracted
lately, I'll admit that.

But listen to me.

We are still within our timeline.

- David, this is too important to fail.

Our entire future depends
on these two products.

Now I'm gonna give you a few
weeks to get it together.

- Are we done here?

Because I'd like to get back to work.

(birds chirping)

(engine rumbling)

- What you looking for?

- My phone's missing.

Do you see it anywhere?

- No, but let me just call it real quick.

- Oh, good idea.

(phone ringing)

- Okay, well, it's in the car somewhere.

- No, that's the car Bluetooth ringing.

- Right, which means it's in
the car or somewhere nearby.

- Oh.
- Yeah.

- Ooh!

- Okay.

Ah, here you go.

Found it.

(phone ringing)

- This is your phone.

- Nope, this is your phone.

- Look, it has your name on
it, so obviously it's yours.

- Are you serious?

I'm calling you, so my name
pops up on the display.

(Stephanie laughing)

Yeah.

- Well, that's embarrassing.

- Don't worry, nobody needs
to know that just happened.

- You're the best.

- Yeah. What are you eating?

- Candy.

- Ew, this expired a year ago.

- They're good?

- No, let's go, let's go.

(Stephanie laughing)

Girls trip.
- Woo!

(phone buzzing)

- The Falcon has been victorious.

I found her.

- Where is she?

- Hey, be nice.

This is big.

- Hey, listen, I just got
chewed out by my boss.

I don't need this from you.

Just tell me.

- Okay, here's the thing.

(slow dramatic music)

Do you remember how I said

that she disappeared 12 years ago?

- [David] Yeah. So what?

- That's because she changed her name.

- To what?

- Hold on, let me send you her info now.

(slow dramatic music)

- Are you telling me this
is our leukemia survivor?

- That's her, Phyllis Hope Kerney,

now known as Hope P. Howard.

- Unbelievable.

- [Falcon] Why? Do you
know her or something?

(phone ringing)

- [Hope] What?

- I need to talk with you.

- [Hope] No, don't bother me.

The company car is outside my house.

It's unlocked.

The key's under the mat.

Send someone to get it.

- Wait, I really need to talk with you.

- No, leave me alone.

- Hope.

(water lapping)

- [Stephanie] Where do you want to sit?

- Down by the lake looks nice.

- Yeah.

- Hope?

Hey.

(slow music)

I didn't expect to see you around here.

- Hey, Michael.

- We should go.

- Wow, it's been a while.

- Just.
- Will you stop?

Yeah, it's definitely been a while.

(Stephanie sighing)

- Oh, sorry.

This is my daughter, Allison.

- Hi, Allison.

Nice to meet you.

- I'm almost five.

- You're five?

Wow, big girl.

Listen, Michael, I was really
sorry to hear about your wife.

- Thanks for saying that.

It means a lot.

It's been a rough couple of years for us.

We actually moved back
shortly after she passed.

- I can't even begin to imagine

how hard that must have been.

- Yeah.

Yeah, I was actually able to
transfer in as a detective,

but eventually left to
become a history teacher.

- Wait, what?

Here in town?

- Good old Lincoln High.

- Wow. I mean, I guess that makes sense.

You always did have a thing for history.

- Yeah, it gave me more predictable hours

than being a detective.

- So, do you ever miss the force?

- Eh, yes and no, you know.

But Allison here is more important

than the excitement of
chasing down the bad guys.

(slow music)

Look, I'm sorry for the
way things ended back-

- Michael, I've moved on.

- Yeah.

Well, hey, maybe we could
grab coffee some time

and chat, catch up.

- I don't think that
would be a very good idea.

- Let's get out of here.

(upbeat music)

Wow, it is getting late.

You know, this picnic
is not gonna eat itself.

- Wow, okay.

You know what?

Actually, we probably should get going.

It's getting kind of late, so.

- Oh, yeah, no worries.

- Okay. All right then.

- It's this way, remember?

- Right.

It's this way.

- All right, you ready?

Let's go.

(slow music)

- Tickle, tickle, tickle.
(Allison giggling)

(Michael laughing)

- That was awkward.

- Oh, you felt awkward?

- Yeah.

- Okay, you weren't even
there half the time.

And where'd you run off to anyways?

- I was there in spirit.

- You were there...

Okay, that literally means nothing to me.

I really could have used your
help back there, you know,

like point man, wingman.

- Wingwoman.

- Wingwoman.

Okay, yeah, sure.

Wingwoman.

Just be there next time.

(phone buzzing)

- You going to answer your phone?

- Where did you even get a popsicle?

- Hope, I have something important

that I need to talk to you about.

- Really?
- Who is it?

- Well that sounds
familiar because I tried

setting up a meeting
with you three days ago.

- Who is it?

- [David] Please, it'll
only take a minute.

I promise.

This won't take very long.

- Right, call me again, and
I'm calling the police.

- [David] Hope.

- So who was that?

- I don't know. Spam caller.

- You tried setting up a
meeting with a spammer?

What kind of job do you have?

- The kind of job where
you don't abandon a friend

in an awkward conversation

just because you're feeling uncomfortable.

- [Stephanie] Okay, okay.

(slow dramatic music)

(phone ringing)

- Yeah, man.

- [David] Hope's not at
the address you gave me.

Her company car is.

- Ring her up, dude.

- I tried.

She's not taking my calls.

Does she have any family
members that you're aware of?

- Uh, just her daddio.

No one else.

- All right, let's track him down.

- Okay.

(slow music)

- [Elizabeth] Hope.

- [Hope] So I just discovered that Langdon

is 100% owned by none other
than Dr. David. Jakes.

- Interesting.

So that means that the missing equipment

originated from the company
owned by the same person

authorizing the transaction.

- [Hope] Exactly.

- Send over those documents.

- Okay, will do.

(footsteps tapping)

- What are you doing?

- Oh, just a project from the office.

But I'm done now, so what's up?

- So what do you to to do tomorrow?

- Actually, I thought about going to visit

my mom's grave site.

It's been a while.

- That was really sweet of you

to take your mother's
maiden name in her memory.

- I mean, it was more than that, you know?

By that time, I just, I didn't
want to be a Kerney anymore.

(slow music)

- Don't you think it's time

you go talk things through with your dad?

- You know, honestly, I don't think

I'm really ready for that yet, okay?

I just want to relax this week.

(Hope sighing)

Hi, Mom.

It's been a while.

I brought you some flowers.

Your favorite.

- Hello, Hope.

- Hi, Dad.

- How long have you been back?

I didn't know.

- I just got into town.

I'm staying with Stephanie for a while.

I was going to stop by just to say hi.

- It's been a long time
since you've been home.

- There's not really much
of a reason with Mom gone.

- Look, Hope, I'd really
like to have a talk with you.

There's some things I need to explain.

Won't you ever forgive me?

- I don't know, Dad.

Should I forgive you?

- Hello, honey.

I've really made a mess of
things since you left us.

(birds chirping)

(phone buzzing)

- What do you have?

- Okay, I'm gonna give you a freebie.

I tracked her location.

- How'd you do that?

- I was able to hack
into her cell phone GPS.

Looks like she's back in her hometown.

- Can you transfer the tracking
capability to my phone?

- Can Mjolnir be wielded only
by the one who is worthy?

- I have no idea what
you're talking about.

- Of course you don't.

And obviously the answer is yes.

- Just send it to me.

(upbeat music)

(slow dramatic music)

(dramatic music)

(dramatic music continues)

(slow dramatic music)

(David coughing)

This isn't working.

We need a different way to track her down.

(David breathing heavily)

(David coughing)

(birds chirping)

(slow music)

- So what is it that you
wanted to talk to me about?

- I know I was too hard on
you after your mother died.

- Hard on me?

You were terrible.

You were strict before,

but afterward I felt like a prisoner.

I mean, I couldn't wait
to leave for college.

- Well, after your mom passed,

I was just out of my mind with grief.

I was worried sick I'd lose my only girl.

That's the only reason why I lied to you.

(slow music)

- Lied to me?

Lied about what?

- I... (sighs)

Michael didn't want to break up with you.

- What? What are you saying?

- I told him that if he
just slowed things down

that I'd help him make
detective on the force.

I mean, as police chief, I
knew that I had the ability

to make that happen faster.

- How could you?

- It was only supposed to
be for a short time, Hope.

It was his decision to join the military.

- Yeah, where he met and
eventually married another woman.

- I am so, so sorry.

- Yeah.

Sorry doesn't change anything, does it?

- Oh my, I didn't realize you had company.

- It's okay. I was just leaving.

- Hope.
- No.

- Bob, I'm sorry.

I didn't know your daughter was here.

- It's okay.

It's a surprise visit.

(car door thudding)

(engine rumbling)

- Hey.
- Hey.

- Oh, can you add your number to my phone?

- Add my number?

What, you got a new phone?

- It's a work thing.

- You have a weird job.

- Thanks.

- I didn't save my page, hm.

(David coughing)

- Yeah, I was just about to call you.

Yeah, I'm not, I'm not gonna

be able to meet you this afternoon.

No, I have to help my
neighbor with something.

Mm-hmm. Oh, absolutely.

Yes, we will.

I'll call you right after we're finished.

Okay.

(David coughing)

(insects chirping)
(water lapping)

(slow dramatic music)

(dramatic music)

(horn honking)

- I'm sorry.

(dramatic music)

(Hope panting)

(dramatic music)

(Hope panting)

Hey, someone was just following me.

- [Elizabeth] Following
you? What do you mean?

- [Hope] I don't know, in an SUV.

But I guarantee it's related
to Jakes and Darthon.

He's been calling me and now this.

- Okay, this is getting serious.

Jakes is a powerful man.

You clearly are onto
something and he knows it.

You need to be careful.

- Careful is my middle name.

- I'm afraid I know you better than that.

Are you forgetting all those
summers we spent together

at the lake house when you were a kid?

Something about a leaky fishing boat.

- Okay, okay, okay.

I get the point.

You don't have to go into details.

I have to go.

- Okay, remember, watch out for yourself.

(Elizabeth sighing)

(insects chirping)

(footsteps tapping)

(slow suspenseful music)

(Hope sighing)

(Hope sighing)

(dramatic music)

(slow suspenseful music)

(item rattling)

- Steph?

(slow suspenseful music)

This is ridiculous.

(pans clanging)

(dramatic music)

Who are you?

What do you want?

(dramatic music)

(Hope grunting)

Let go!

(Elbow thudding)
(Hope grunting)

(Elbow thudding)
(Hope grunting)

(dramatic music)

(Hope groaning)

(Hope groaning)

(Hope groaning)
(Pan thudding)

(Hope screaming)

(Stephanie screaming)

(dramatic music)
(women screaming)

(women breathing heavily)

- Who was that?

And what are you doing with a frying pan?

- Once again, I really could
have used your help here.

- Well, honestly, it's
kind of hard to help

when you don't tell me

what's actually happening in your life.

- Now is not the time for that.

Who's going to go close the door?

- Right behind you.

- Right behind me?

That means I'm going to go first.

- Point man, wingwoman.

(slow dramatic music)

- Steph?
- Yeah.

- Are you scared?

- Living the dream.

- Living the dream?

- Okay, I'm calling the police.

- No, wait, just wait.

- What do you mean, wait?

Some lunatic was attacking us

and we have no idea if he's coming back.

I'm calling.

- Wait, I think they're from Darthon.

They've been following me.

- Following you?

Why would some goon from
work be following you?

- I don't know.

- You going to tell me what's
actually going on here?

(slow music)

(Hope sighing)

- Okay, I was fired last week, okay?

And ever since then, my former boss

has been harassing me nonstop.

- That was your boss?

- No, probably not.

It was just somebody he sent.

- I'm calling the police.

I thought you were on vacation.

- I am, just a permanent vacation.

(gentle music)

- Oh, God, I have caused so much pain

with my lies and actions.

My only daughter doesn't
want anything to do with me.

Help me to show your love to Hope

in the same way you've always loved me.

Please bring healing to my family.

(gentle music)

(slow music)

(engine rumbling)

- Hi, Michael.

I'll get Hope.

It's for you.

Wingwoman?

No wingwoman.

- Wingwoman?

- It's just...

You know what, never mind.

How can I help you, Michael?

- I heard you had a break-in last night.

- How did you find that out?

Oh, Steph told you.

- No.

No, I still have friends on the force.

Actually, one called me earlier today

when he saw the police report, so.

- Okay.

- So you going to invite me in?

- No, we're actually really busy tonight,

so I appreciate you...

(slow music)

(phone ringing)

(slow dramatic music)

- Falcon.

- [David] You failed.

- What are you talking about?

- Your partner, Brutus was
supposed to bring Hope to me,

and now the clock is ticking.

- Well, Brutus is the one who wiped out.

He's the one who broke
into her house, not me.

- Look, I paid you a lot of
money to make this happen.

So that makes you responsible.

- I don't know what to tell you, man.

- Then let me tell you.

You and your partner have exactly 24 hours

to get Hope Howard to me or
I'm going to come looking for you.

It's in your best interest
to tell me you heard me.

- I heard you.

(phone droning)

That wasn't very nice.

(dramatic music)

- So that's it.

That's how it all happened.

- I don't know.

Just doesn't make any sense.

- Okay, well, it doesn't
have to make sense.

Facts are the facts.

Some guy broke in here last night

and tried to grab me until I stopped him.

End of story.

So, Michael, why are you really here?

- Oh.
- Okay.

(door thudding)

- Hope, we're friends, okay?

I care about what happens to my friends.

- Okay, Michael, I spoke to my father

and he told me that he convinced
you to break up with me.

Why didn't you fight for me back then?

- I don't know.

I guess I was a coward.

I'm sorry for that.

But I really did think
you had other plans.

- You ran off and enlisted.

- Yeah, and you ran off to college

on your fancy scholarship.

(slow music)

You know, (sighs)

when my wife was killed by a drunk driver,

anger consumed me for months.

And I finally realized that forgiveness

doesn't just benefit the other person.

It benefits me because it frees me

from the bondage of bitterness.

I just hope we can still be friends.

- Just friends.

- I'll take it.

- Are you all right?

- Oh, yes, just a cut.

- I came by to remind you
that your three year physical

is due within the month.

- Oh, I should have never agreed to that

as a term of employment.

- Well, apparently you were fine with it

when you accepted your
promotion to a VP role.

- Well, it's completely unnecessary.

My health is of no one else's concern.

I am A-okay.

- Within the month.

- [Elizabeth] I've got some good news.

- I could really use
some good news right now.

- Okay, if you can get a current
copy of the company policy

on how things are purchased

along with the original paperwork
of the missing equipment,

you've got a great case.

- Really?

That's great news.

- Now I'm assuming that you don't have

a copy of the documents with you?

- No, but I do have a friend
on the inside who's helping me.

- Great. Very resourceful, as always.

- [Hope] Okay, well I'll let you go.

Thanks for your help.

- Bye.

- So how can I help?

- What do you mean?

- Tell me what to do.

- Steph, I told you I'm fine.

- Look, I know you're
gathering evidence on your boss

and I know I can help.

- I don't know, it could be dangerous.

- More dangerous than a stalker

breaking into my parents' house
in the middle of the night?

- Okay, that's a valid point.

But you really want to help me?

- I do.

- Okay, sit down.

(suspenseful music)

- So what are we looking at?

- Okay, these are purchase requisitions,

purchase orders, and invoices.

The only problem is I need originals

of all of these authorizing documents.

- Why?

- Because it's too easy to alter a copy.

- How do you tell the difference

between an original and a copy?

- Okay, a purchase requisition

consists of a triplicate copy.

This is what triggers a
legitimate request for purchase

according to company policy.

Within Darthon, the white
original goes to purchasing,

the pink original goes to finance,

and the yellow original goes to
the one making the purchase.

- So far I'm following.

- Before it's separated and
distributed by purchasing,

it needs proper authorization.

- Right. Now this is a
blank purchase requisition,

but that is where the
authorizing signature would go.

Okay, this is a printout related

to the physical equipment
inventory that we just performed.

The only problem is there
are several purchases on here

that were ordered, received, and paid for,

but they don't exist anywhere at Darthon.

- Sounds like a problem.
- Yeah.

So what I know so far is the company

the missing equipment was purchased from

is owned solely by Dr. David
Jakes, the guy who fired me.

- (gasps) That has to be
more than a coincidence.

- Oh, but not only that, he's the one

who signed for the missing
equipment on behalf of Darthon.

- Wow. Sounds criminal to me.

- Steph.
- Mm.

- I was let go because
he overran the budget.

And he overran the budget

because he was making all of
these unauthorized purchases.

- And then he fired you
to cover up his trail.

- Exactly.

- [Stephanie] What's that?

- It's the key fob to Darthon.

I forgot to return it.

- Hm.

(phone buzzing)

- Hey, Danielle.

- All right, what else can I do to help?

- Can you get me a current copy
of Darthon's policy manual?

- Sure, that's easy.

I'll email you a copy.

What else?

- Um, yeah, there's also
a stack of documents

that we had when we discussed
the missing equipment.

It's in the bottom left drawer of my desk.

Can you just grab those
and hold onto them for me

till I can pick them up?

- I'll try.

That might be tricky,

but I'll come in early tomorrow morning.

I still have the copy of
your office key you gave me.

- Great.

All right, well just let
me know what you find.

- Will do.

Got to go.

(slow music)

- I have Jakes' address.

I'm just gonna go check it out.

- What are you hoping to find?

- I don't know.

I guess I'll figure it
out when I get there.

- Well count me in.
- Hm.

- How do you know his address anyway?

- Believe it or not, he's
on my Christmas card list.

- Aw.
- Stop.

Let's go.

(suspenseful music)

- Ca-caw!

(dog barking)

- Shh. Really?

There's no ca-caw.

Come on.

(quirky music)

Was that necessary?

- It was fun.

(suspenseful music)

- Ssh.

Get off me.

Ssh.

- Okay, all right.

Ooh.
- Oh. Steph.

- Wow, look at that computer setup.

Looks expensive.

- Yeah.

- Here, let me see.

- What could he be doing with
that much processing power?

- Whoa.

- Here, let me see.

The lens cap was on.
- Huh.

(slow dramatic music)

- [Hope] Wait a minute.

- What do you see?

- Sigmann Technologies.

- What's that mean?

- I think it must be
the original supplier.

- (gasps) From the missing equipment?

- Yeah, I remember seeing the
name on the inventory list.

But they sell super computers

used for high level processing

like running drug correlations,
that sort of thing.

- Why would he go through so much trouble

to install the computer at
his house instead of Darthon?

- I don't know.

What are you up to, Jakes?

(both gasping)

Hey, I think Jake's has
the missing equipment

from Darthon at his house.

- And how exactly did you discover this?

- [Hope] Um.

- Hope?

- Okay, maybe I spied on him

through the back window of his house.

- Hope, I thought you were
supposed to be more careful.

- [Hope] Okay, I have to go.

(phone droning)

- Uh-oh.

(slow dramatic music)

- What? What's wrong?

- My phone's missing.

I must have accidentally
dropped it at Jakes' house.

- Oh, Steph, please
tell me you're kidding.

- I wish I were.

Sorry.

(slow suspenseful music)

(doorbell ringing)

- (gasps) Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Hold on.

Unbelievable.

- Who's that?

- That would be Pam
Stevens, director of HR.

- Oh.

- Oh, and it looks like she's getting

pretty comfy with the doctor.

I had no idea.

- No wonder you didn't get a fair shake

in your exit interview.

- Exactly.

She tried to shut me
down when I brought up

the irregularities with the audit.

- That Pam.

(slow suspenseful music)

(footsteps tapping)

(slow suspenseful music)

- Danielle, I didn't know
you were here already.

- Yeah, I came in a little early today.

- You looking for something?

- Yeah, just some files regarding
a project I'm working on.

- I'm sorry, I have orders

that no one is allowed into this office.

Something about a pending lawsuit.

No one's allowed in that
office until, well, ever.

Yeah, not even tomorrow, okay?

- Oh, I see.

Well I've got what I need,
so I guess we're good.

- Whoa.

And nothing's to be
removed from the office

until further notice.

- So I can't take these files for review?

- No, ma'am, I'm sorry.

- All right, well I'll just go ahead

and put these back then.

(slow dramatic music)

- What'd you find out?

- She's moving around a lot,

but now she's back at her friend's house.

- What are you waiting for?

Tell Brutus to use whatever
force is necessary,

but don't hurt her.

I need her alive.

- We're booking it, but
the stakes are a lot higher

now that the cops are involved.

- You realize I can call somebody else?

- And you realize it'd be very easy for me

to make Darthon aware

of your extracurricular
equipment purchases?

- Okay, I'm not gonna argue with you.

How much?

- 10K and we'll jam.

Anything else just isn't worth it.

- Don't make me regret this.

(phone ringing)

- Hey, did you find anything out?

- Yes. I just emailed
you the policy manual.

- [Hope] Yes.

All right, what about
the documents on my desk?

- Sorry, I tried,

but security stopped me
from taking anything.

Something about a lawsuit.

- Lawsuit?

I haven't filed one, at least not yet.

- Well it sounds like
they're expecting one.

- Listen, if I don't get the originals

of those authorizing documents,

I don't have a case either way.

- I'm sorry I couldn't help.

- No, you have done more than enough.

I'll figure something out.

- [Danielle] Bye.

(pan sizzling)

(David coughing)

- David.

You're bleeding.

- I'm okay.

- What's going on?

- I said I'm okay, okay?

- No, you're not.

- I said I'm okay.

(slow dramatic music)

Just let it go.

- [Falcon] Yo.

- So, what?

- [Falcon] It's only been a few hours.

- Falcon, tell Brutus it's now.

- [Falcon] Chill, man.

Okay? Tell your brother it's no sweat.

- It's me, okay?

You doofus, it's me.

I'm the one with the disease.

It's me.

- [Falcon] Oh, man, that's heavy.

Why didn't you tell me before?

Hello?

(slow dramatic music)

- Okay, I got the company policy

and it clearly states what
Jakes is doing isn't authorized.

I'll send it to you right now.

- You've made good progress.

How are those authorizing
documents coming along?

- Yeah, my friend wasn't
able to get those.

- I really think you need
those to solidify your case.

(Hope sighing)

- Maybe there's a way I
can get back into Darthon.

- Okay, I'm sure you don't
mean breaking and entering.

- Well, maybe there's a way I
can enter without breaking in.

- That is a terrible idea and
I must caution you against it.

It would be catastrophic to
your case if you were caught.

- I know, I was just
thinking about it, okay?

- Seriously, Hope, you are not invincible.

- [Hope] Okay, yes, I know that.

But I have to go. Bye.

(engine rumbling)

- [Michael] Hey, is Hope here?

I need to talk to her about something.

- Come on in.

Those for me?

- No, sorry, for Hope.

Peace offering.

- Wait here, I'll go find her.

(door thudding)

Um, Hope's not here.

- Oh, um, any idea where
she might have gone?

- I'm not sure.

She didn't say anything to me

and now she isn't answering her phone.

- She's been acting kind of strange

ever since she's been back.

I mean, look, I know we've had our issues.

But I don't know, she just

doesn't seem like the same Hope.

- I don't know if I'm
supposed to say anything,

but she lost her job last week.

- What?

(slow dramatic music)

- She's been looking for
evidence against her former boss,

evidence she says is in
her office back at Darthon.

(dramatic music)

(phone buzzing)

- Michael.

- Hope, whatever you're up to, don't.

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

- Stephanie told me you lost your job.

- That's none of your business.

- Look, I can help you
figure this out, all right?

(slow music)

You don't have to do this alone.

So just turn your car
around and come back home.

- I have to go.

(dramatic music)

- Oh, this isn't good.

- What do you mean?

- She's not thinking straight right now,

that's what I mean.

I have to go find her before she
does something she'll regret.

- But you don't even know where she went.

- Okay, you said the documents she needs

are in the office, right?

- Check.

- Okay, so she has to
be on her way there.

- I don't know.

I'll find her somehow.

- I've got a better idea.

- Yeah? And what's that?

- After the break-in, Hope and I

set up location sharing on our phones.

I can track her location from anywhere.

Looks like you were right.

I think she's on her way
to her office building.

- All right, I'll be
back in a little while.

- Right behind you.

- Where do you think you're going?

- I'm coming. Wingwoman.

- What is with this wingwoman thing?

- You're the point man, I'm the wingwoman.

Ba da bing, ba da boom.

Why do you still look confused?

- No, no.

I don't need a wingwoman.

- Does your phone track Hope's location?

- Of course not.

- Then I'm coming.

- All right, you know the risks, okay?

Because this could get really dangerous.

- She's my friend too.

(slow music)

I'm coming.

- All right, let's go.

(dramatic music)

(tires squealing)
(engine roaring)

(slow suspenseful music)

(key fob beeping)

(slow suspenseful music)

(door rattling)

- Long day.

- I agree.

Hopefully tomorrow won't be so crazy.

- Tomorrow's Saturday.

- [Employee] Oh right. (laughs)

I guess it won't be so crazy then.

- [Man] (laughs) I'll see you next week.

- [Employee] Sounds good.

I'll see you then.

(slow suspenseful music)

(keys rattling)

(suspenseful music)

(slow suspenseful music)

(keys rattling)

(dramatic music)

(slow suspenseful music)

(phone buzzing)

- What?

- Listen to me.

You need to get out of there right now.

- I am, relax.

(phone clicking)

- Hope. (sighs)

(engine roaring)

(slow suspenseful music)

(dramatic music)

(upbeat music)

(slow dramatic music)

- Get off me.

I know who you are.

You broke into our house.

(dramatic music)

(both grunting)

- Yeah, we got her.

- Okay, keep out of sight.

I'll be there in 20 minutes.

(engine roaring)
(dramatic music)

- So who is this guy anyway?

- His name's Dr. David
Jakes, director of R&D.

He's been with Darthon for 18 years.

He received a VP promotion eight years ago.

Looks like his expertise is in developing

and bringing leading-edge
medications to market.

- Sounds like the real deal

before he went off the deep end, huh?

- Okay, take this next
exit to head north on 275.

(slow dramatic music)

- How close are we?

- [Stephanie] ETA is 18 minutes.

- Yeah, what do you say we make that 15?

(dramatic music)
(engine roaring)

- Falcon?

- You got it.

- Where's Brutus?

- He's here.

- What'd you do to her?

- She's fine, it's just a sedative.

- How long before it wears off?

- I don't know, man.

Like 15 or 20 minutes.

So pay up. $10,000.

Is the money in the case?

(slow dramatic music)

- First you're going to help me

get her into the
executive conference room.

Come on.

(dramatic music)

(upbeat music)
(guard humming)

(slow dramatic music)

- All right, pay up.

- It's all there.

(engine roaring)

- [Michael] Hey, can you see exactly

where she's at in the building?

- No, but I visited her office last year.

If we get inside, I think I can find it.

- All right, let's move.

(David coughing)

(slow dramatic music)

- Where am I?

- It's good to finally
see you again, Hope.

(dramatic music)

- Help!

Someone help me!

- Quiet. No one can hear you.

- Where are we?

- You wouldn't help me willingly,

so I had to take matters
into my own hands.

(slow dramatic music)

Relax, you're gonna be fine.

- What do you want from me?

- If you had taken any of my calls,

you would know what I want.

- What? You fired me.

- You put your nose
where it didn't belong.

- So you admit it?

That was your motivation for all of this.

- It's more complicated than that.

- What? What?

(dramatic music)

(Hope groaning)

(slow suspenseful music)

- Hey, that's the guy who
broke into my parents' house.

(dramatic music)

- Where's Hope?

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

(both grunting)

(fist thudding)
(Michael groaning)

(Falcon groaning)

(both grunting)

(slow dramatic music)

- Where is she?

Tell me, and we give you the money.

- She's in the executive
conference by Jakes' office.

- What floor?

How do we get there?

- Figure it out.

- How do we get there?

- Fourth floor.

Go up and go left.

You can't miss it.

- I find out you're messing with me

and I will hunt you down.

(dramatic music)

(slow dramatic music)

- Relax, it's an antiseptic.

It's been a while since I've
administered a blood draw.

- Why? Why all of this?

- I'm dying, Hope.

I have a cancer similar to the
one you survived as a child.

I've exhausted every other option.

- What does this have to do with me?

- As a long-term survivor, your
antibodies are my best bet.

All I need is a pint of blood.

That's it, nothing more,

and you're free to go.

(slow dramatic music)

(keys rattling)

- Excuse me, what are you doing?

- A woman's been abducted.

She's being held in the conference
room on the fourth floor.

- Detective Michael Hansen. Retired.

- Detective?

Police detective?

- Yeah, this is my partner.

You're going to need to let us through.

- I'm sorry, I don't think I can do that.

- Look, it's our friend Hope.

If you don't let us through,

there's no telling what's going to happen.

(gentle music)

- Hope?

Hope Howard?

- Yes.
- Yeah.

- 10-4, sir.

What's our objective?

- My partner and I are
going up, all right?

I need you to stay here and call it in.

- Here. You might need these.

- Thanks.

(dramatic music)

Tell them to get here as fast as they can.

- Yes, sir.

APB, we have an unknown
suspect in possible possession

of an apparent missing person.

Be advised, the perpetrator
may be armed and dangerous.

Send all available units
to the scene of the crime.

- [Dispatcher] Identify location.

- That location is Dartmouth...
Darthon Research Lab.

Repeat, Darthon Research Laboratories.

- [Dispatcher] Please confirm Darthon.

- Yeah, Darthon, not the other. Darthon.

- [Dispatcher] Copy, Darthon
Research Laboratories.

- Thank you.

- [Dispatcher] 10-4.

(slow dramatic music)

- Sorry, Hope, but you're not leaving

until I get what I need.

(dramatic music)

Stop shaking.

I don't want to hurt you.

- Detective, huh?

- Hey, I said detective, retired.

- I didn't realize we were partners.

And why do you still carry a badge?

- I don't know.

A reminder of a previous life, I guess.

(slow dramatic music)

- I thought he said left.

- Just follow me.

- How do you even know where to go?

- Instinct.

- [Stephanie] Okay.

- [Dispatcher] 6-11, what's your 20?

- 10-23 on scene.

- [Dispatcher] Copy, unit on scene.

- Right this way.

The perp is holed up in
a fourth floor office.

Possible hostage situation.

(dramatic music)

- What are you doing?

You said you'd let me go
after you got what you needed.

You already drew my blood.

- You didn't really think
I was gonna let you live

with what you know, did you?

- Why are you so angry?

- I didn't ask for this.

- How is that my fault?

- It's not.

(slow music)

It's fate.

Life isn't fair.

Sometimes bad things happen.

- No, you always have a choice.

- You can't control it, and neither can I.

Look, people are going
to use you and abuse you.

Now you need to learn to
start fighting for yourself

because no one is going to.

And in this case, you were better off

just leaving well enough alone.

(dramatic music)

- Help!

Someone help me!

- Over here, hurry, hurry.

- Hurry.

- What do you think I'm doing?

There's like 50 keys on this thing.

- Instinct.

(dramatic music)

(David coughing)

(David grunting)

(glass shattering)

- Get away from her.

Move.

- Jakes, you don't have to do this.

(David coughing)

- I said move.

- Look, nothing you've done at this point

is beyond repair, all right?

So just put the gun
down and I can help you

with whatever it is that you need.

- Well, it's too late for that.

You know as well as I do,

I can't let you leave here. (coughs)

- Look, the police are gonna
be here any minute, okay?

Just work with me.

It doesn't have to end this way.

- You.

There's a blood collection
bag in that cooler over there.

Bring it to me.

Go. The cooler, right over there.

Bring the cooler to me.

Hurry up.

Come on, come on, I don't have all day.

Let's go.

What are you doing?

- It's okay.

I'm gonna walk it over
to you slowly, all right?

Nice and easy.

- Set it on the corner of
the table and you back up.

Back up.

Back up.

- It's okay.

- I said back up.

- [Officer] Police, let me see your hands.

Drop the gun.

(David grunting)

(Hope gasping)

Drop the gun.

Show me your hands. Turn around.

Turn around. Turn around.

Hands behind your back.

(David coughing)

(slow dramatic music)

Everybody okay?

(slow music)

- Hope, I'm sorry.

I didn't mean for it to go that far.

- You don't have to be afraid to die.

Jakes.

(slow music)

I can forgive you because
I've been forgiven.

- Thanks, I owe you one.

- It's been my pleasure, sir.

(gentle music)

- You found me.

- Yeah.

Well, I figured last time
I didn't fight for you.

I didn't want to make
that same mistake again.

- Let's get you home.

(gentle music)

(birds chirping)

(car door thudding)

(uplifting music)

- Isaiah 61:1 says, "The spirit
of the Lord God is upon me

"because the Lord has anointed me

"to preach good tidings to the poor.

"He has sent me to heal the brokenhearted,

"to proclaim liberty to the captives,

"and the opening of the prison
to those who are bound."

Amen.

- [Congregation] Amen.

- With us today are some
special friends of ours,

Bob Kerney and his daughter Hope.

I've asked them to come share
a little of their story,

so let's make them feel welcome.

(congregation applauding)

- My story is one of profound grace.

It's about a father, an imperfect father

who loved his daughter

but who made mistakes
that wounded her deeply.

It's about a daughter
who, despite being hurt,

was able to forgive fully.

- You know, it's also about
a perfect Heavenly Father

who sent his son to heal those wounds.

He restored my broken heart

and he freed me from my
prison of bitterness.

You know, Jesus died and he rose again

to redeem each and every
one of us of our sins.

But you know the only
thing he asks in return

is that we forgive those who have hurt us.

That seems like a pretty
small price in comparison.

(congregation murmuring)

You know, I once heard
that forgiving others

and letting go of bitterness
is the beginning of healing.

It also allows for new things to flourish.

And now I know how true that really is.

(uplifting music)
(congregation applauding)

So, you know, I was really glad to hear

that Jakes is expected
to make a full recovery.

- Yeah, it's truly a miracle.

- So what do you think's
going to happen to him?

- I don't know.

I mean, the guy's committed
some serious felonies, you know?

But the fact that you're
not willing to press charges

counts in his favor.

- I mean, when I found out
he was doing all of that

just to save his own life,

it just seemed like the
least I could do, you know?

- Yeah.

- Come on, let's go.

(uplifting music)

You know you don't have
to come with me, right?

- Yeah, I know.

- I thought you hated running.

- (sighs) Welcome to the new Michael.

I'm ready to experience some new things.

- Yeah? In that outfit?

- What's wrong with this?

- It's great. It's perfect. (laughs)

(phone buzzing)

Steph?

Steph?

Pocket dial from Steph.

- Ugh, those are the worst.

(upbeat music)

- Not all of them.

- Hey, wait up.

- Come on, let's go.

- [Michael] What's the rush?

- This is a jog, not a walk.

Come on, old man.

- [Michael] Cut me some slack, will ya?

It's been a while.

(Hope laughing)
