Crap.

Morning.

Morning.
Hey.

Adam, I've got to talk to you.

No, I'm late for work.
You're late for work. Yeah.

And you're a broken record.
Yeah.

Well...
You two are still family.

You want to hear some news?

Yeah. Do you want
some horchata?

Yes, I would love some.

So much hospitality
from your daughter.

Where would she
have learned that from?

You know, that you would be lecturing
on social conventions is a laugh.

After killing myself all summer
flying back and forth to New York,

Jasmine and Jabbar
are visiting me.

That's great.
You're kidding.

Wow, cool.
That's so great.

- When does that happen?
- Friday!

Crosby! Crosby!
Jabbar's coming!

He is.
That's so cool.

Um, can I have
a play date with him?

Yes.

I'm excited, too.
I know. I'm on fire.

I'm burning. Let's celebrate.
How about a hug?

- Here, will you try this?
- Do you wanna?

You, oddly beautiful
stranger in the kitchen?

This is Gaby.

Oh, famous Gaby!

- She's not going to hug you either.
- I don't know about that.

Oh, oh, I'II...
I'll hug you.

It's social.
I can get a sticker.

Oh. Okay.
I don't want to pass that up.

Oh,
here is your horchata.

Um, it's kind of weird that we
haven't met yet, don't you think?

- Crosby, Crosby.
- Yes.

Crosby, Crosby, sit down.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Maybe Jabbar could even,
you know, have a sleepover.

- Are you good at sleepovers?
- Well, I've never had one before,

but it's probably worth
a lot of stickers

because it's extremely
social, right?

Yeah, it is
extremely social, Max.

Yes. Okay. Okay.

- Thank you, Gaby.
- All right, then.

Hey, Ma.

Adam, your father's
in the barn.

Listen, I got to get to work.
I have a crisis.

We've got a leak, and he's
going to fix it himself.

Oh, God.

Remember when he changed
out the fuse box?

Three-alarm fire
and $5,000 later.

Okay. All right. I'll stop
over on my way in, okay?

Oh, thanks, sweetie.
You're the best.

Zeek?
Huh?

Why don't you wait
till Adam gets here?

Why would I wait
for Adam to get here

when I'm perfectly capable...
Because I asked you to.

Camille, look,
I'm not going to be stopped

from fixing a leak in my
own house because some...

I hear you and I see you.

And I'm breathing.

You're out of luck.
Yeah?

Yeah. Too bad.

Hey!

Did I come from a vagina?

Where did you hear that?

Did I?

Um, yeah, you did.

Um...
Wow.

Did you come out
of a vagina, too?

Do you want ice cream?

Ice cream sounds
like such a great idea.

That sounds super good,
doesn't it?

That'd be a great idea.
Did you?

Okay...
I don't... This is...

I did. I did as well.

How about you?

Um, bug, I don't think
we're going to have this...

Yeah. Yeah,
I came from a vagina.

Wow! Our whole
family came from vaginas!

Kaitlin, our whole family
came from vaginas!

She's so smart.

Oh, my God.
Hey.

Adam, the roof is caving in.
It's like 2012 in there. Yeah.

What are you going to do about it?
Well, listen.

I really don't have time to
take a look at it. Okay?

Just tell Mom I stopped by.
What do you mean?

If it's a simple leak, he can fix it, okay?
No, he can't.

But if it's a serious plumbing issue,
don't let him anywhere near it.

I know that.
Hey. Hey, Adam.

You need me to take a look?

You'd better get to work.
You don't want to give Gordon any ammo.

Ammo? What is that
supposed to mean?

Hey, you said that he was coming
down hard at you at work.

Hard. I didn't say he was
coming down on me at work.

Oh, please, Adam.
Come on.

You know how
the corporate world works.

Gordon's the boss,
and you're just a serf, Son.

You know what happens to serfs.

They get beheaded.
Where do you get this stuff?

No, no.
Just don't even rise to the bait.

Go sell some shoes, Son.

Listen to me.
Okay, you are better at making repairs

Than
anybody I know, okay?

Can you just deal with this for me?
I can't believe

you almost even got that without laughing.
Tell Mom I stopped by.

I will, but
I have a job interview today.

And I'm excited about it.

Okay, I get it, you need a job.

Okay, and I have a bunch of
people who are depending on me

to keep their jobs.
So I need to generate new products.

I've got to go.

Hey! I thought you were
helping your grandfather.

I asked you to do
that half an hour ago.

I know. I can't find my shoes.

Hey, Drew.
You can't find your shoes?

No.
Oh, my God.

Excuse me.
Do you have anything for cramps?

Yeah. Is it bad?
I'm like having a heavy...

All right, that's enough.
Where are your shoes?

Why is nobody wearing shoes?

Oh, my God.
You know what you should invent?

Like a shoe LoJack.
Like a beeper thing, you know?

That you have a clicker and the shoe
beeps and that way you can find it.

Mothers all over America
would love it.

I would love it. That's just...
That's annoying.

All right, I got to go.
I'll see you later.

Okay. But wait, what did
you think of my idea?

LoJack shoe?

I'm going to put
that in my idea file.

Whatever that is.

Whoo-hoo! Oh, boy. I gotta go.

Okay, I gotta go!

Adam! This baby's gushing!
It's just a leak, though.

I can take care of it.

You know, you might want to
call Joel for help on this one.

He's a professional.
Adam!

Will you take me
for some pizza?

No, they outlawed
pizza since you left.

What? Yeah, it was
making people's hair fall out.

It won't...
I'm just kidding you.

Of course I'll take you
to pizza.

I love going to pizza, because...
Jabbar.

Sorry, sweetie. Say goodbye to your dad.
We gotta go.

Okay. Wait. Hey, how would you feel
about having a little sleepover

at your cousin Max's house?

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah? Yeah?

All right, then maybe
your mother and I

could have a little
much-needed alone time.

Whoo-hoo.
Hey, honey, we gotta go.

Sweetie,
you got to bend down more,

I can't see you.
Hey, we got to go.

Okay, well, it's the
arranged time, though, so...

I know, but I've got 1,000 things
to do before the weekend, so...

Well, I miss you guys.
I can't wait to see you.

Miss you, too.

There's a monster
on my computer screen.

Braverman?

Hey, Gordon.
Listen, I'm really sorry.

I just got caught up
in a family situation.

Come on in.
Let's talk about that.

Great. You know, I had to dash
over to my parents' house

because they have this gigantic
leak in their guest house

where my sister is staying,
so...

But I'm... I'm just...
The point is,

I know I've missed
a lot of work lately.

You know my situation with Max,

but summers are always
a little crazy.

And you know,
school's back next week.

Adam, we're very different.

Yeah. Agreed, man.

I've got a condo in Nob Hill,
you've got a real home in Berkeley.

I have a sailboat in Sausalito.
You drive a minivan.

I've had a slew of tantalizing
relations, and you...

You've got Katherine.

Uh, Kristina, but, yeah.

Listen, Adam,
I just need to know

that your personal issues
are not going to,

you know, interfere with work.

Gordon, come on. This company has my
complete and undivided attention.

Listen, I have a family.

I have other things going on.

But even when I'm away from here, I'm always
thinking about the company, you know?

I am always thinking.

For example?

Well, you know, this morning
when I was driving to work,

I had this idea.
Okay, now, it might be a terrible idea,

but I was thinking about how...

You know how kids
are always losing their shoes?

Well, they are.
It's a universal thing.

Uh...

I was thinking about
a kid shoe with a clicker.

Kid loses his shoe,

you push the clicker,
it beeps, you find it,

whether it's, you know,
under the bed,

it's in the closet,
in the garage.

Click, bzzt, bam!

Shoe.

You thought of this?

Yes.

Are you kidding me? That's great.
I love it. It's brill.

We got to move.

All right, so you want me
to get on this?

Yes, right away.
Are you kidding me?

All right, I'm on it.
I love it.

Great.

Hey, whoa, whoa, whoa.
By the way...

Yeah? This whole thing
with the leak at your

parents' house?
Yeah?

Next time, call a plumber.

Ooh, Italian.
That's good for an interview, right?

Yeah, yeah. Well, you don't need a
blazer with this outfit at all.

No, no. I want to look really corporate.
I want to look really serious.

That actually looks better
than this one.

It does. Oh, let me see
that one again, though.

Um, no. No. No.
Okay, I'm going to wear this one.

I like it. Please?

It makes me feel corporate
and serious.

Good. Wonderful. Joel, thank you
so much for dealing with Dad.

- Oh, yeah.
- And good luck.

Yes. You know, you can't
actually let him do anything.

You can't let him
make any decision.

You have to make
every decision.

But you have
to make him think that

all the decisions
you're making are his.

That's so important. Ooh, I like this.
Do you like this?

Okay, how exactly am I
supposed to do all the work

and make him
think he's doing it?

Only you can figure that one out.
Yep. Figure it out.

Thank you so much.

You are the greatest, babe.

You are the greatest,
babe. Okay,

can I borrow your purse, too?

'Cause it's blue and
it kind of matches.

Do you mind?
Yeah, because...

You have a million of them.
No, no, would you...

Awesome. Okay. I love you.
You're the best. And I love you.

Do I look like the assistant

to the assistant manager
of Christy's Clothes,

clothes for real people?

Absolutely. Yep.
Spot on.

I have a really good feeling about this.
Thank you, guys.

- Good.
- See ya.

Bye! Good luck!

Last question, the leading cause
of teenage death in America?

Uh, what is
automobile accidents?

Bingo. You got it right.

Okay, let me tally
these up real quick.

Forty-nine out of fifty.
You missed one. Yeah, I missed one.

Can I drive now?

Of course, honey.
You can drive.

That's why we're here.
Great.

Hold on a second, though.
What?

Just be...
Just patience, okay?

I'm just putting
the car in gear.

Fine. Put the car
into gear,

and keep your foot firmly depressed onto...
Okay, now, I can go.

Haddie.
Let go of my leg.

I'm trying to...
Let go! Let go of my leg!

Brake!
Stop it!

Okay!

I didn't know
if I was going or stopping.

You have got to listen to me!

This is our fourth lesson.

Are we going to get
on the road ever?

I don't know.

You know something?
I really appreciate you taking the time

to do this, Joel.

I mean, I know you're not doing anything
now that Sydney's back in school.

Yeah, just poppin'
those bonbons.

Yeah. You know what I don't believe in?
What's that?

Roofers.

You invite them into your house.
They do all this crap work

and then you end up paying.

You don't even know
what they're doing.

That's a good point.

Whoa. Whoa.

That beam is totally rotted.

You got that right.

And there's no...

There's no tar paper between
the roof and the wood.

Who did this?

That'd be me.

That's quality work, huh?

I mean, I couldn't afford
tar paper at the time, so...

Yeah. Yeah, well...

I did what I could.
Sure.

Yeah. Look, Joel, I know that
you've dabbled in some home repair.

I'm a licensed contractor.

So, here's the deal, Joel.
Mmm-hmm.

I built this with
my own two hands.

I converted it from a garage into a guest
house, so I'll be calling the shots.

Is that going to be
okay with you?

Wouldn't have it any other way.

And, I want you to know, there's
a six pack in it for you

when you're done.

It's nice to see you.
What's going on?

Um, well, I'm riding my bike.

So, Mom doesn't want me to ever
drive is what I'm getting from her.

Yeah. Still not out of
the parking lot, huh?

No, we're not even close.

And I just would love for you to
reconsider teaching me how to drive.

I'm really busy at work.
And we can't change this up on your mother.

She's going to feel like...
You know, she's going to take it personally.

Dad, I... It's ridiculous.
It's like...

I'll show you.
If you are me...

Okay...and you're driving.
And so, we're both in the car.

Mmm-hmm.
Now put your hands on the wheel.

All right. Put your hands on the wheel.
And make sure...

No, ten and two. Ten and two.
Okay, ten and two.

Yeah. No.
Uh, don't look at me like that.

Don't look at me like that.
Yeah, you're being your mother.

I see, okay.
And I'm driving.

Okay.
So, you're driving.

Now slowly put
your foot on the gas pedal.

All right.

What are you doing?
Huh. That's Mom.

What? Show me that
you recognize this.

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

Dad, do you guys have like
some stupid agreement

about not acknowledging
each other's flaws?

Yeah. It's called marriage.

Braverman.
I ran the beeper shoe concept by...

Yeah. Hey, Gordon,
you remember my daughter.

Hi. Oh, of course, how are you?
Emily, right?

Uh, hey. Good. Great.
It's Haddie. Haddie.

Oh. Haddie, I'm sorry.

It's okay. Hey, did you need
me to come in the office?

'Cause she was just
going to leave in a minute.

We were just having a family crisis.
But we have ten a day, so...

Haddie...
She's being hyperbolic.

That's not true. Well, I don't mean
to break up another family crisis.

Um, I'll be in my office, okay?

All right.
I'll be over as soon as I can.

It's good
to see you again, Edie.

Did he just say "Edie"?

Yeah, he did. Listen,
I will talk to your mother.

We'll fix it. We'll get you
out of the parking lot, okay?

Okay. Thank you.

All right. Bye. Nice to see you.
Stop by any time.

Bye. Be afraid for my life.

Braverman!

I'm coming in, Gordon.

- All right.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Yeah?
Yeah.

You know, let me cut
the water off before you...

No, we don't need that. Hey, come on.
I know what I'm doing here.

Shut it off!
Shut it off, Joel!

Come on, man!
Great idea.

Damn it! Come on!

All we got
is good pressure!

Where is it?

I don't know!
It's down there somewhere!

You built it!
Oh, God!

Our father is going
completely insane.

No, he's always been this way.

Should we do something?

Trust Joel.

I guess.

Hey, how did that,
uh, job interview go?

Great. Fantastic.
Really?

No, they didn't seem
to be impressed

by my 12 years of waitressing
at Nick's Pub.

Listen, Sarah, you know, you're
going to find something eventually

and you're just gonna forget
about this period.

This period, which has lasted
for 38 years? I hope so.

Hey, you know,
that idea you had

about the shoe clicker thing?

You sold it,
we made a million dollars?

No, not exactly, but I did
bring the idea up to my boss.

And he fired you?
Mmm-mmm.

No, he liked it, actually.

No.

Yeah, and I think that,
uh, you know,

we're going to
maybe develop the idea.

No, not really!

Yeah. Look,
we develop a lot of ideas,

and a lot of them end up
going nowhere, but...

No, no, I know.
But that's amazing.

Oh, my God!

So...

Uh, you know, thank you.

Yeah.
Yeah.

All right, listen, I gotta go.
I got to get back to the wife and kids,

so I'II...
I'll see you later.

Well, hey, I mean...
So, you know, good luck with it.

Thanks.

Thanks.

Hey, Haddie
stopped by the office today.

She did?

She said that you guys still haven't
made it out of the parking lot.

What's that?

Honey, you're
cutting that wrong.

The skin has to be completely off.
I'm not cutting it wrong.

I'm doing it fancy, like this.
No, no.

It's fine. You have to take
all of the stripeys off.

Why?
Max won't eat it.

He'll eat it.
No, he won't.

Listen, honey, all I'm saying is
that when I learned how to drive,

my Dad took me out on the
road the very first day.

Right. Zeek just
threw you to the wolves.

That's a big shocker.
Absolutely.

First day. Wasn't a problem.
I haven't had a single moving violation in my life.

Really? Are you
criticizing my driving record?

Because I'm pretty good.
I know what I'm doing. I'm just saying,

you should try to get Haddie
out on the road. Absolutely.

I will take her out
on the road when she's ready.

Listen, honey,
I know that this is hard.

Our 16-year-old daughter
is learning how to drive.

Honey. It's not the easiest
thing in the world to accept.

This is not about me right now.
You sure?

It's about her. I will take her out
when she's ready. She's not ready.

Okay. All right.
Trust me.

Okay.
You need to...

Look. No, he's not.
He's going to eat them like this.

It's going to be fine.

So it starts out as an egg.

And once the egg gets fertilized,
it develops into a baby.

It's one of life's
greatest miracles.

Does that make sense?

Wait, so how does the egg
get fertilized?

It happens. Yep.
It just magically happens?

Sydney. It...
The dad...

The dad fertilizes it.

The dad?
Yeah, it's the dad's job.

Daddy, you brought
the fertilizer?

Yep.
Yes, he did.

Well, how'd you get the
fertilizer into the egg?

I think we should
have ice cream today.

I want to know how you did it.

Well...

The dad has what's called...

Julia. The dad has
what's called a penis.

And he uses the penis
to fertilize the egg.

And the fertilizer
is called sperm.

Oh, jeez.
And, um...

Where does it happen?

Does the egg come out
or does the sperm go in?

I'm going to have mint...

Mint chocolate chip.
Mmm.

Daddy's going to have a sundae.
Yep. That sounds great.

That's a million dollar idea.

No, it isn't.
It's not even a total idea.

I just...
It was off the top of my head.

It's a game changer, Sarah.

That's what that is.
Dad, really?

Yeah.
No, Dad.

You know what? They're not even gonna
use it or do anything with it.

Don't think like that.
Sweetheart, you have a gift.

- I don't have a gift.
- I have a kid who can't find his shoes.

Excuse me, I need a spoon.
Oh, honey, listen.

Sweetheart, I love you, but
you got to quit doing that.

Doing what? Well, belittling
yourself, sweetheart.

It's a defense mechanism.

Zeek, come on.
She hasn't even had her coffee yet.

All I'm trying to do is just tell her
she should value her ideas, Camille.

Yes, I can hear that.

And I'm trying to say that you should let
Sarah and Adam manage their own lives.

Yeah, but all I'm trying to do is just
instill a little bit of confidence...

I hear you
and I see you, sweetheart.

I'll be in my studio.

Dad?
Hmm?

Are you my dad?
Yeah.

Is that marriage counseling? Wow.
Marriage counseling, yeah.

A hundred and fifty
bucks an hour,

I don't understand a damn word
the guy is saying, all right?

Is that why you cut the hair?

That's why I cut my hair.
Very impressive, Dad.

Good job. I wanted to look softer.
Do I look softer a little?

Yes?

Okay, honey.
What?

If you give yourself credit, then other
people will start giving you credit, too.

All right?
Okay.

And the point is, I think you
could be a part of the process

on this whole shoe thing.
Process, Dad?

There is no process.
It's Adam's job.

And if he wanted my help,
he could ask me for it.

How the hell is he going to
know if you don't tell him?

You've got to tell him you want
to be involved. Okay. I'll try.

I don't know, Dad, I don't
think he would love it.

Anyway, and I thank you for your
advice, but I don't really need it.

I'm a grownup and I will
take care of it and just...

I'm sorry I even brought it up.

Oh, hey, sweetheart.
No, I hear you. I see you.

That gives me the creeps.

I'm going to stop
at the stop sign. What?

Okay, just relax.
I'm stopping right here.

You're not listening to me at all.
I'm listening to you.

I'm stopped. I'm the one with the
driver's license. You're not.

Now do your counting.

One cranberry, two cranberries...
Just like Lamaze.

Um, if somebody toots like that,
don't get frazzled. Toots?

Okay, now, proceed. Make a right.
I'm not frazzled.

Yeah, I'm fine.

Hold your pants. I'm making a right.
I'm making a right.

Mom, can you stop?
Stop! Haddie! Pull over!

What?

Hey, Dad.

Well, just...
Do not blame me, okay? Honey?

Don't blame this
all on me, okay?

You have to take a little
bit of responsibility.

You were the one
behind the wheel.

If it was just me behind the
wheel, I would have been calm.

- We had an accident.
- It's not a big thing.

What do you mean, you had an accident?
Did anybody get hurt?

We didn't have an accident.
Well, I'm a little hurt.

Mom. We're lucky to be standing
here right now, actually.

Do not make this into a thing.
It is a thing.

You're exaggerating.
I'm not exaggerating.

You're exaggerating to make it...
You don't listen to me.

I told you to listen.
Hey, hey, hey, what happened to my car?

Dad. Tell him.
Tell him what happened. Go ahead.

You're gonna laugh.
You're gonna laugh. I...

You're going to laugh hard.
I swiped the mirror.

That's it.
That's it, just the side mirror?

That's it. That's absolutely it.
What do you mean, that's it?

I mean that's it.
That is reality.

The whole thing is...

Honey, it's just a mirror.
You should be the one to teach me.

Maybe I was right.
Thanks for bringing it up.

I hate the fact that you go behind my
back and ask your dad to teach you.

I'm your driver's license coach.
Well, you're so crazy

that you think you're a coach.
Don't ever call me crazy.

Don't call me crazy.
Let Dad be my coach.

I will never let you convince me to
take her on the road ever again.

What?
She's not ready.

What? Are you guys
having an argument?

No, no, no.
We're not having an argument.

Well, it sounds like you are.
We're not having an argument.

You're definitely having an argument.
We're not having an argument.

Just let me talk
to your mother.

It sounds like you're having an argument.
We're not.

- I heard you.
- Tell Mom to count backwards from 30

- and to take deep breaths.
- Okay.

They're good coping mechanisms.

Hey, Miles,

I think Haddie's
still mad at Mom.

I'm going to kill you.

I think she wants to kill me.

Hey, Kristina.
What?

I love you and I appreciate
everything you do for our children.

Okay, spit it out.
What do you want to say?

Is it possible that you're being
a little irrational with Haddie?

I'm being irrational?
I'm being irrational?

I didn't say you were.
Honey, she just crashed the car.

I know. I'm just saying,
this is a big step, okay?

A huge step, okay?

Our daughter is learning how to drive.
Absolutely.

It's symbolic.
And maybe it's not easy for you to...

I am not being
irrational, Adam, okay?

You weren't there. I was.
Our daughter sucks at driving.

That's the problem,
so butt out.

Okay.

Hi.
Oh. Hey.

I thought
you were Zeek.

What ya doing?
Well, I just thought I'd, uh, sneak in

and, uh, fix this leak
without your father knowing

because he doesn't know
what he's doing.

And, uh, I thought I'd come in
here before we fix it tomorrow.

Then what are you
going to tell him?

I'll just be like, "Wow, that
seemed a lot worse yesterday,

"but now here we are."

Don't worry.
I got a whole plan.

It's going to be
pretty awesome.

That's amazing that you just
know how to fix that.

Oh, yeah.
Well, you know, it's what I did

before I did, uh, play dates
and juice boxes and all that.

Hmm.

What?
What?

Come on. Come on.

I wonder if I could ask you
to build me something.

Okay, yeah.

I wonder if you would
build me a desk.

I'd love to.
Really?

What kind of desk are we talking?
What are you going to use it for?

You know, I had
this idea the other day,

it was for a shoe
for Adam's company.

If a kid lost their shoe, you'd click
something and the shoe would beep

and then they could find it.
I love that idea.

Really? Yeah.
I'd buy a dozen of those for Sydney.

So...

Yeah. I just started
thinking, you know,

if I had a space
to have more ideas,

maybe I'd have more ideas.

Yeah. I get ya.

Makes sense to me.
Yeah.

Hello. Yeah,
please come in

and look over my shoulder,
Max. Don't knock.

Okay. Are you
still mad at Mom?

I was being sarcastic.
Yeah, I am.

Can you help me
get my sleepover set up?

- Yeah.
- You know, because Gaby made me

a "how to have
a successful sleepover" list

and one of the things is to
make your guests feel at home

so I'm going to put up a bunch
of pictures of New York...

Oh, wow...around the top bunk
where Jabbar is going to sleep.

Did you know that with
over 6,400 cars... Max?

New York has the largest fleet
of subway cars in the world?

Max, would you leave and I'll
talk to you about this later?

Okay. Can you just go?
Give me a minute, all right?

Okay.
Great, thank you.

One, two...

What are you doing? ...three.
You said "minute." Sixty seconds.

I don't care. I'll just
be there later, all right?

Four, five, six, seven, eight.
Get out of my room.

Max, leave my room.
Are you an idiot? Leave the room!

Hey.
Leave!

Nine, 10, 11, 12, 13...

- Can you see him?
- Oh. Hi, buddy.

He's awake.
Thank you.

You're welcome.
I got my fix.

That's our boy.

Hey, so, I was thinking,
um, Friday night,

Jabbar will be at Max's
for the sleepover.

Mmm-hmm.

And we'll be back here making the boat rock.
Don't come knocking.

And then, Saturday, you know,

my mom's going to want to
stuff him full of lasagna,

so I was thinking Saturday
night at my parents' house.

And then Sunday, we kind
of have to go to Julia's

because she's got
this new weird thing

where she thinks no one
wants to go to her house,

which is kind of true.

Crosby, sweetie, slow down.

What about my family?

You're not an orphan, that's right.
Right.

Yeah, sorry. I forgot.

You probably want to see them.

I really can't even
think about all this right now.

What do you mean, you can't
think about it right now?

Well, I'm a little busy.

I've got Jabbar,
I've got rehearsals.

Mmm-hmm.

You're pissed?
You're pissed.

No, I'm not. No.

It's okay if you are.
Say what's on your mind.

I love Jabbar.
And I love you.

And I miss you guys.

And I feel like I'm the only one that's
putting any effort into this relationship.

I've been flying back and
forth every other week,

and now that you're finally coming,
you can't even talk about it?

I want to be with you, too.

I miss you.

Yeah, you sure?

I do.

All right.

Hold on one second.

Take your time getting there,
it's a good shot.

Shh, not so loud.

Sorry. I just wanted to make
sure that he was sleeping.

They must have made this Skype thing
for something other than just talking.

Oh, my God.
Are we about to have Skype-sex?

Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

Because I've heard
this could be very dangerous.

Oh, my goodness.
Yeah.

Okay, go slower though.
Oh, my goodness.

Why don't you go lay down on the
couch or the bed or whatever?

Okay, yeah, I'm going
to the bedroom.

Okay, dance a little slower,
though, okay?

So, are you ready?

This is fantastic.

Wait, did you just
stop moving or is it...

Oh, yeah.
No, no. You're breaking...

Hold on. I'm in a...

I think I'm in a dead zone.
I gotta go back to the...

Okay, Jasmine?

Hold on. Don't stop.

I need a stronger signal,
but don't stop.

Come on.
Where's a...

Come on! Jasmine!

Hey.

Hey.

Sorry, I should have called.
Is this a bad time?

Nope. Nope. Come on in.
What's up?

Hi. Nothing.

Yeah, how are things at the house?
What's going on with the roof?

Joel's working on it and, um...
Good.

So, the, uh, shoe thing
was an idea that I had.

Yeah, listen, hold on
one second, Sarah.

Let's talk about this in one second.

Hey, it's just my sister.
It'll just be a minute.

Hey, listen, we got
to wrap this up.

I gotta have a little meeting
across the hall.

Right. Okay. It was my idea.
And I feel like you just kind of took it.

I... Sarah, look, you know, you said that
to me in an offhand way that morning.

Mmm-hmm. It's not like we sat down
and had an official pitch meeting.

Oh, I didn't know we had to
have an official meeting.

Maybe we should take it to The People's
Court, or, you know, call Judge Judy.

Sarah, let's not have
a fight about this.

I didn't know we had
to have a meeting.

Adam, I had an idea and I feel like
if I don't start to value my ideas,

I'm gonna disappear.

Let me be part of it.

God, Sarah, I've done like a million
things for you over the years

and I've never asked
for more than a "thank you."

Well, I'm asking for more.

No, no,
wait, wait, wait. Hex.

I use the flathead.

Yeah, I know you're using a
flathead, but it's the wrong screw.

They're going to pop right
through the shingle.

It's not the wrong screw.
Flatheads are fine.

You know, I can't...

I can't do this anymore.

Everything you're
doing is wrong.

Do you understand that?

And if there's one thing I can't
stand, it's doing a job badly.

And you are doing
this so badly.

It's even worse than you treating me
like I don't know what I'm doing,

when I'm a certified contractor,
who got paid, believe it or not,

a lot of money to do what
you have no idea how to do.

Is that it?
Not remotely.

Really?
Yes.

Well, let me hear
the rest of it, then.

I hate that you treat me
like I'm my daughter's age.

I'm a grown-ass man,

and if I didn't have a recession where
I couldn't afford to pay my team,

I'd be up here...
All right, all right, all right, all right.

Doing this job with several other
more qualified people than yourself.

You've got some anger
in there, huh?

Well... A little spirit.
I like that.

I don't think I've ever heard you say
more than five words since I knew you.

Well...
No, really.

I hear you. And I see you.

That's coming
from my counseling sessions.

They're working, huh?

It's pretty good.
You could benefit from it.

You've got some anger issues.

I got to tell you, I like it.
It's spunky.

Hello?
Hey, it's me.

Hey.

You're going to hate me.

- I'm not going to hate you.
- I like you. I'm counting down the hours.

I can't come out.

I hate you.

It's down to me
and one other person

for that understudy part
on the European tour.

And I can't pass this up.

Gordon, you got a minute?

Come on in.

It wasn't my idea,
the shoe clicker.

My sister came up with it.
I don't know why I lied about it, but I did.

How could I put this?
Um...

I don't give a rat's ass.
All right. All right.

I'll take care of it.
All right? Sorry.

Listen, you know, you say that
your family's not a distraction,

but every time I turn around, we've
got another crisis on our hands.

Yeah, yeah, I know.

If you're just going
to phone it in then...

Hey, Gordon,
nobody's phoning it in.

You know
what I'm talking about.

I need you here, Adam, focused.

You are an essential part of this company, okay?
And we're in trouble.

All right.

No, no, no, no, no, no.
What? What?

No, no. This goes here,
because...

Uncle Crosby!
Hey.

Hi.
Hi. We're getting ready.

I see that.
Look at all this.

It's going to be so awesome.
Check it out.

Jabbar's favorite, orange soda.

And...
He loves that.

And SunChips.

My Mom said it's okay for me to have
food in my room just this one time.

Good job.
So, eat it now,

because this is going to probably be your
last chance to ever eat food in my room.

Okay, maybe later, though.
Okay.

Um, is everyone...
Everyone's out.

Everyone's out?
Why?

Um, Max.

Yeah? You did a really good job
planning for this sleepover.

Thank you. Thank you.
I love it. I love it.

Hey, buddy,
I have some bad news.

Um, there's been a change in
plan and, uh, Jabbar can't come.

Yeah, yes, he can.
He's flying tomorrow.

Flight 932, arriving Oakland
International Airport 5:45 p.m.

Okay, but he changed plans
and now he...

No, he has a ticket.
Yeah, but there was a change in plan.

No. Max, I'm sure he can
come back again soon.

Right?
No way.

Right?
Yeah, hopefully, but you know,

who knows at this point?
What?

No, this is unacceptable!

No! This sucks! No! Max, Max, buddy, buddy.
I'm in the same boat as you.

No! No! No!
Whoa, hey, hey, hey. Whoa, Max. Max.

Max, Max, Max!
What happened?

Max, Max! Calm down.
Max. Max.

Take a deep breath. Remember?
We take a deep breath.

Remember? Okay, listen.
I know you're upset.

You have every right to be.
Okay? It's not fair.

No!
Max, I know you're upset.

I'm upset, too, okay?

I am, and it's not fair.
I know.

All right, Max, look at me.

But it's not going to help to
kick and scream and yell, Max.

Look at me.

All right, so we're going to
have to try and calm down

and come up with another plan.

All right, calm down, and
come up with a Plan B, okay?

- Max...
- Deep breath.

Max, um, I'm gonna go watch some TV.
Do you want some extra screen time?

Uh, no TV, actually,

maybe just a glass of water.
I'll be right there.

Yeah.

You okay?
Wow. Um, yeah,

I've never seen
that side of him.

Yeah, he's going
to learn not to do that.

It just takes a while.

Good job, though. Yeah. Thanks.

Wow, I'm back in the game.

That's amazing, Dad.
Thank you.

Yeah, well, you know,
Joel contributed.

Hey.

Your father loves me.

How does that feel?

I'm not sure yet.

I'm going
back out there.

I read 10 books on sex ed. Oh.

I think I have a little bit of a
better handle on how to explain

a penis to
a six-year-old girl.

I don't know if you can
explain something...

Can we just give her
five or six years

to shake off
the damage we've done

and then start fresh?

No, babe, I'm the mom.
She's a girl.

You have to let me make
this decision on this one.

Yeah, yeah, and if we had
a boy, you'd let me handle it?

What?

When you said, "If we had a boy
," I pictured us having a boy.

Oh.

And I want her
to have a brother or a sister.

Okay. We can't wait forever
on this, you know?

We always said you could build a bedroom
above the garage, so that is perfect.

Just hold on a second.
When are you...

"When," yes, that is key.
That is absolutely key.

I can't believe we're having
this conversation.

Neither can I.

Oh.

Hey.

Hey.

What ya doing?

I'm sorry. I will pay for it.

Okay.

So, I'm going
to pay for it, then?

I guess so.
You just offered to pay for it.

I don't know.
I feel stupid about it. Just...

I don't have money.

I don't have money
to pay for it.

Haddie, it's fine.

I am sorry for this

and for being rude to you

and treating you really badly

and I don't know, I just...

But, I do have to say to you, and
I don't mean this as an insult,

but I feel like you were being
a little bit irrational.

I was? I'm not upset. Yeah.

A little bit. You know?

A little out of the ordinary.

It's about catastrophization.

Okay?

Catastrophization.
It's not a word.

It's not a real word, but it's
one that your dad made up for me

because I sometimes
catastrophize things.

You know, I look
into the future

and I see the worst.

You driving this car,

and you getting in a horrible,
awful car accident,

and me having to go down
to the scene

and seeing your body
and smell the carnage and...

What? Mom...I can see the
people and just swarming around.

Stop. Stop.
And I just make my brain...

I just... I know. I'm sorry.

It's not going to happen.

I know.

I just love you way too much.

And I don't know
what I would do.

Okay.
And I think about Max,

and who's going to take care of him
when we're not around.

Mom, I will.
Honey, I would never do that to you.

I would never put that burden on
you to take care of your brother.

I just... I wouldn't.

It's not a burden.

I love Max.

He's my brother.

You know that.

I can't believe I'm eating snacks
and drinking soda in my bed.

Hey, I wonder if the top bunk
caved in on me, if I'd die.

I don't think it would cave in.

But if it did,
I'd probably die, right?

Uh, maybe.

Sleepovers rock.

They do.

Are you having fun?

Yeah, I'm having
a lot of fun, Max.

We should do this every night.

Um,

it would be pretty amazing.

Good night, Haddie.

Good night, Max.

Hi. I didn't even
hear you pull up.

I just was inside.

I said hi to Mom and Dad.

How's it going?
Oh, good, fine.

Yeah?
Yeah.

Listen, I'm really sorry
for co-opting your idea,

and I'd like
to offer you a job.

What? You said
you wanted more.

Really?
Yeah.

Yeah. It'd be an internship.
It'd be in the design department,

but that would be good for you.

And it'd be some money, not a lot.
But it would be a start.

That would be great.

All right. Great.

All right, so, we'II, uh, work
out some details tomorrow, okay?

Okay.
I just got to get home.

Adam.

Yeah?

Thank you.

Thank you.
