Mr. Irv: I WASN´T THERE

THE DAY DR. ANDREW BROWN´S
LIFE CHANGED FOREVER.

BUT LIKE MOST FOLKS
IN EVERWOOD,

I´VE HEARD THE STORY ENOUGH
TIMES TO BE ABLE TO TELL IT.

IT BEGINS
WHERE MANY STORIES BEGIN --

IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK,

WHERE DR. BROWN
LIVED COMFORTABLY

WITH HIS WIFE
AND TWO CHILDREN.

EPHRAM,
YOU´RE GONNA BE LATE AGAIN.

I KNOW, I KNOW.

FINISH YOUR ORANGE JUICE,
SWEETIE.

GOOD MORNING.

THIS MINE?
IT IS.

SOMEONE´S UNUSUALLY QUIET
THIS MORNING.

SOMEONE´S
UNUSUALLY INTERESTED.

DON´T BE NERVOUS
ABOUT TONIGHT.

YOUR DAD AND I WILL BE THERE
TO CHEER YOU ON.

YEAH, I´M SURE.
SEE YA.

HIS RECITAL´S TONIGHT?
I´VE ONLY TOLD YOU 10 TIMES.

WHAT TIME?
8:00. HE´S GOING EARLY
WITH A FRIEND.

YOU ARE I ARE LEAVING AT 7:00
TO MAKE IT TO JERSEY ON TIME.

WOULD SOMEONE TELL ME WHY,
WITH ALL THE PIANO TEACHERS
IN MANHATTAN,

MY SON HAS TO STUDY
IN NEW JERSEY?

THE BEST ONE
IS IN JERSEY.

I DIDN´T THINK JERSEY HAD
THE BEST ANYTHING.

THE GIANTS PLAY IN JERSEY,
AND THEY´RE THE BEST.

THEY´RE NOT TECHNICALLY
FROM NEW JERSEY.

THEY SHOULD BE.
WHAT DO YOU KNOW?
YOU´RE 8.

BYE.

BE HOME ON TIME.

I WILL.

[ DOOR OPENS ]

GLIOBLASTOMA MULTIFORME.

I LIKE TO CALL IT "THE GREAT
WHITE OF BRAIN TUMORS."

IT´S HIGHLY MALIGNANT
AND GROWS QUICKLY --

TYPICALLY OCCURRING
IN THE FRONTAL OR TEMPORAL LOBE
OF THE CEREBRAL HEMISPHERE.

IN YOUR CASE, MR. SADDLEBROOK,
IT OCCURS IN BOTH HEMISPHERES

AND HAS BEGUN TO METASTASIZE
INTO THE SPINAL FLUID.

WE KNOW ALL THIS ALREADY.
THE OTHER DOCTORS DIAGNOSED HIM
WEEKS AGO.

THEY SAY IT´S INOPERABLE.
WE CAME TO YOU BECAUSE YOU´RE
SUPPOSED TO BE THE BEST.

I´M WILLING TO GO AFTER THIS
CANCER WITH EVERYTHING I´VE GOT,

STARTING WITH A COMBINATION
OF RADIATION THERAPIES

FOLLOWED BY AN IMMEDIATE
AND MASSIVE SURGICAL RESECTION.

THANK YOU.
DON´T THANK ME NOW.

YOU CAN THANK ME
WHEN I SAVE YOUR LIFE.

I HOPE HE´S AS GOOD
AS HE IS BRIEF.

NIGHT FELL,
AND A NASTY STORM ROLLED IN.

THEY DON´T KNOW THE FIRST THING
ABOUT THIS IN BOSTON.

YOU ASKED ME TO REMIND YOU
WHEN IT WAS 7:00.

IT´S 7:00 ALREADY?
IT WAS 7:00 A HALF-HOUR AGO,

WHEN I REMINDED YOU
THE FIRST TIME.

TELL JULIA TO GO WITHOUT ME.
I´LL MEET HER THERE.

SHE CALLED ALREADY
TO SAY SHE WAS LEAVING,

AND SHE ASKED ME
TO REMIND YOU THAT YOU´RE
A LOUSY HUSBAND/FATHER.

THANKS, BARB.
I DON´T CARE!

LOOK, LARRY, LISTEN TO ME,
THE FACT REMAINS...

IN HIS USUAL FASHION,
DR. BROWN WORKED LATE AGAIN --

SO LATE,
HE WAS STILL AT THE HOSPITAL

WHEN HE RECEIVED THE NEWS.

[ TELEPHONE RINGS ]

EXCUSE ME, MA´AM. WE´RE LOOKING
FOR DR. ANDREW BROWN.

DR. BROWN? UM --

I´M ANDREW BROWN.

THERE HAD BEEN, IT SEEMED,
AN ACCIDENT.

SADLY, ANDY´S WIFE
NEVER MADE IT FROM HOME

TO THEIR SON´S RECITAL
THAT NIGHT.

INSTEAD,
HER LIFE WAS TAKEN TRAGICALLY

ON THE ICY HIGHWAY IN BETWEEN.

[ THUNDER CRASHES ]

[ BIRD CRIES ]

OH, SURE, THE BROWNS
DID THE BEST THEY COULD

TO GET BY AFTER THAT,

PRETENDING AS THOUGH
NOTHING HAD CHANGED,

KNOWING THAT EVERYTHING HAD.

AS EXPECTED, DR. BROWN WASTED
NO TIME GOING BACK TO WORK.

WHAT WASN´T EXPECTED WAS WHAT
HAPPENED ONCE HE GOT THERE.

MORNING, DOC.

MORNING, MR. SADDLEBROOK.

YOU READY
FOR THE BIG DAY TOMORROW?

WELL, I HOPE SO.

SAY, LISTEN, DOC...

I HEARD ABOUT THE TRAGEDY
YOU SUFFERED.

I´M SORRY.

IF YOU COULD BE ANYWHERE
IN THE WORLD RIGHT NOW...

WHERE WOULD IT BE?

HERSHEY, PENNSYLVANIA.

IT´S WHERE
I WAS BROUGHT UP.

GO THERE...

NOW.

I CAN´T SAVE YOUR LIFE.

AT BEST, I COULD PROLONG IT
EIGHT MONTHS, MAYBE A YEAR.

MOST OF THAT TIME,
YOU´LL BE BARELY COHERENT,
RECOVERING FROM SURGERY.

AND THAT´S ALL SO THIS HOSPITAL
CAN BRAG ABOUT ITS STATISTICS

WITH TERMINAL ILLNESSES.

BUT STATISTICS DON´T MEASURE
QUALITY OF LIFE.

AND IF YOU HAVE
EVEN THE SLIGHTEST HOPE

OF PRESERVING YOUR OWN,
YOU´LL GET UP OUT OF THAT BED

AND LEAVE THIS PLACE AS FAST
AS YOUR LEGS WILL CARRY YOU.

AND THOSE WERE
ANDY BROWN´S FINAL WORDS

AS A BIG-CITY DOCTOR.

MOVING WHERE?!

EVERWOOD, COLORADO.
WHERE´S THAT?

COLORADO, MORON.

W-WHY ARE WE MOVING THERE?

SOMEBODY TOLD ME
ABOUT IT ONCE.

THEY SAID IT WAS THE MOST
BEAUTIFUL PLACE THEY´D SEEN.

IT´S ON THIS HILL --
OR IS IT A MOUNTAIN?

MAYBE IT´S ON A HILL
BY A MOUNTAIN.

ANYWAY, I WAS THINKING
THAT WE SHOULD MOVE THERE.

WHAT DO YOU SAY?

I SAY THAT´S NOT EVEN
A REASON!

I KNOW.
HOW GREAT IS THAT?

WE´D BE MOVING SOMEPLACE
FOR NO REASON AT ALL.

THAT´S CRAZY.
THAT´S HARRISON FORD
IN "MOSQUITO COAST" CRAZY.

YOU SAY CRAZY.
IT MIGHT BE THE SANEST THING
I´VE EVER DONE.

NOW, I WANT THIS TO BE
A DEMOCRATIC DECISION,

SO WE´RE GONNA PUT THIS
TO A VOTE.

EVERYONE WHO WANTS TO MOVE...
AND GET THEIR OWN HORSE,

RAISE YOUR HAND.

WELL, THAT DECIDES IT.

DEMOCRA--
YOU BOUGHT HER VOTE!

YEAH.
THAT´S THE AMERICAN VERSION.

I WANT YOU
TO REMEMBER THIS MOMENT.

THIS IS THE MOMENT
YOU CONSPIRED WITH A PSYCHO

TO RUIN WHATEVER WAS LEFT
OF OUR PATHETIC LITTLE LIVES.

AS IT TURNS OUT,
ANDY´S LEAVING

CAUSED QUITE A STIR
IN THE MEDICAL COMMUNITY.

TIME MAGAZINE
EVEN WROTE ABOUT IT,

CALLING ANDREW BROWN´S
DEPARTURE FROM NEUROSURGERY

"ONE OF THE GREAT LOSSES
OF MODERN MEDICINE."

LIKE A LOT OF PEOPLE, YOU MIGHT
THINK THEY WERE EXAGGERATING.

BUT THEN...YOU PROBABLY
DON´T KNOW DR. BROWN.

EVERWOOD, COLORADO.

POPULATION -- JUST OVER 9,000
AND GROWING.

FOUNDED IN 1853, THIS JEWEL
OF THE CENTENNIAL STATE

IS HOME TO ONE OF THE COUNTRY´S
FIRST OPERA HOUSES,

OLDEST GOLD MINES,
THIRD-LARGEST CHILI COOK-OFF,

AND EVEN THE OCCASIONAL
WORLD-FAMOUS BRAIN SURGEON.

SON OF A --

GUESS.

UH...RANGERS.
NOPE.

ROCKIES?
SOMEBODY´S ACCLIMATING.

HUH?
GETTING ADJUSTED.

DO I HAVE TO EAT THESE?
THEY DON´T SMELL RIGHT.

[ HORN HONKS ]

THERE´S YOUR BUS.

WHERE´S MY LUNCH?

LUNCH?
I FORGOT TO MAKE IT.

TELL YOU WHAT -- HERE.
HERE´S SOME CASH.

I FORGOT --
YOU WANT TO DO THIS ALONE.

IT´S A BIG STEP FOR ME.

LOVE YOU.

I LOVE YOU, TOO, KIDDO.

♫ THEY ALL LAUGHED... ♫

ROSEMARY CLOONEY --
MY, MY, MY.

UH, IT´S DELIA BROWN.

I KNOW. ROSEMARY CLOONEY´S
ON THE RADIO.

I TAKE NOTE OF WHAT´S PLAYING
WHEN A PASSENGER ENTERS MY BUS

FOR THE FIRST TIME -- IT TELLS
ME SOMETHING ABOUT THEM.

WHAT´S MARYROSE CLOONEY
TELL YOU?

SHE TELLS ME THAT YOU AND I
ARE GONNA GET ON JUST FINE.

[ LAUGHS ]

THE KIDS CALL ME MR. IRV.

♫ ...KEPT THE LAUGHERS BUSY ♫

♫ THAT´S HOW PEOPLE ARE ♫

COME ON,
LET´S GET YOU TO SCHOOL.

I´M RIDING MY BIKE.
WHY? I CAN DRIVE YOU.

I APPRECIATE THE OFFER, BUT
IT´S ABOUT 10 YEARS TOO LATE.

[ DOOR OPENS, CLOSES ]

[ DOG BARKING IN DISTANCE ]

[ BIRD CAWS ]

[ TAPPING ]

YOU´RE NOT A PLANT.

I´M A BOY!
IMPRESSIVE.

I SEE YOU´VE MET
MY RESIDENT HORTICULTURALIST.

HONEY, WHY DON´T YOU GO INSIDE?
IT´S COLD.

NINA FEENEY,
AND THAT MONSTER IS SAMUEL.
WE´RE YOUR NEIGHBORS.

THAT´S A WEIRD COINCIDENCE,
´CAUSE I´M YOUR NEIGHBOR.

DR. BROWN, RIGHT?

PLEASE -- ANDY.
AND, UH, HOW DID YOU --

OH, SMALL TOWN, ANDY.

IF YOU´LL EXCUSE ME, I HAVE TO
SHIP HIM OFF TO DAY CARE,

BUT IT WAS NICE MEETING YOU.

NICE TO MEET YOU, NINA.

[ YOUNG MEN LAUGHING ]

Young man:
NICE HAIR COLOR, TOO.

[ LAUGHTER ]

HEY, FREAK.
WHAT´S WITH THE HAIR, MAN?

THEY RUN OUT OF GREEN
AT THE STORE?

HEY, YOU. MY FRIEND HERE
ASKED YOU A QUESTION.

I´M SORRY.
I-I-I DIDN´T UNDERSTAND HIM.

YOU SEE,
I DON´T SPEAK DUMB-ASS.

BUT SINCE YOU OBVIOUSLY DO,
MAYBE YOU COULD TRANSLATE.

[ SCOFFS ]

♫ BUT THAT´S ALRIGHT, NOW ♫

♫ ALL THE GIRLIES
SAY WE ROCK IT ♫

♫ AND I´M FEELIN´ HIGH NOW ♫

♫ WORKIN´ ON A SUNTAN,
WE DON´T EVEN TRY AND BLOCK IT ♫

♫ AND IT´S HOT AS HELL... ♫

HEY.

HEY.

YOU WERE BOLD OUT THERE.

OH, IT WAS JUST STRATEGY,
REALLY.

STRATEGY?

I FIND IT BEST WHEN DEALING
WITH ANY UNFAMILIAR BULLY

TO STRIKE EARLY
WITH SARCASM.

IT MAKES THEM WONDER
WHETHER I HAVE

SOME SECRET BUTT-KICKING PROWESS
THEY´RE UNABLE TO DETECT.

WERE THEY REALLY THAT HORRIBLE
IN NEW YORK?

HOW´D YOU KNOW
I WAS FROM NEW YORK?

THAT DOCTOR WHO MOVED HERE --
HE´S YOUR FATHER, RIGHT?

YEAH, IF YOU USE
THE TERM "FATHER" LOOSELY.

EVER SINCE
THAT ARTICLE IN TIME,

HE´S ALL ANYONE CAN TALK ABOUT
AROUND HERE.

YEAH?
WELL, WHAT DO THEY SAY?

MOSTLY, THEY JUST WONDER
WHY HE CAME.

OH. IF THEY FIGURE IT OUT,
LET ME KNOW.

YOU REALLY DON´T KNOW
WHY YOU CAME HERE?

WHACKED, I KNOW.

I THINK IT´S WILD.

SOMETIMES I WONDER IF MY DAD´S
THE MOST BORING MAN ALIVE.

[ BELL RINGS ]

THERE´S THE BELL.

WE SHOULD...
EAT LUNCH SOMETIME.

♫ ...WITH ME ♫

WAIT.

♫ WALK ALONG WITH ME ♫

WHAT´S YOUR NAME?

AMY.

AND...I LIKE YOUR HAIR.

[ MUSIC CONTINUES ]

IF YOU LIKE THE HOUSE, YOU ARE
SURE TO ADORE THESE OFFICES.

MRS. BAXWORTH, WHY IS
EVERYONE STARING AT US?

NOT US -- YOU. YOU´RE QUITE
THE CELEBRITY IN TOWN.

CELEBRITY?
THERE´S BEEN
ALL SORTS OF CHATTER

ABOUT WHAT BRINGS YOU TO OUR
CORNER OF THE WIDE, WIDE WORLD.

SAW IT ON A MAP.

[ Laughing ] SAW IT ON A MAP.
SUCH A KIDDER.

SERIOUSLY, I DON´T WANT TO PRY,
BUT EVERYONE´S WONDERING

WHAT KIND OF PRACTICE
YOU´RE GONNA SET UP HERE.

THERE´S EVEN BEEN
SOME TALK

THAT YOU´RE HERE TO DO
SOME TOP-SECRET BRAIN RESEARCH.

I´M JUST OPENING UP
A GENERAL PRACTICE.

WHY? IS THERE A PROBLEM
WITH THAT?

UH...
YOU -- YOU ARE AWARE

THAT WE ALREADY HAVE
A-A FAMILY DOCTOR IN TOWN?

OH, SURE,
I ASSUME THERE MUST BE,

BUT SURELY A TOWN
CAN USE TWO DOCTORS.

OF COURSE WE CAN!

Man: HEY, DOC! DOC!

I´VE BEEN WAITING FOR YOU.
RIGHT ON TIME.

HOW ARE YOU TODAY,
DR. ABBOTT?

JUST FINE, MR. GREELEY.

THAT MAKES ONE OF US.

AND HOW ARE YOU TODAY,
MR. GREELEY?
OH, I´M SO GLAD YOU ASKED.

THERE´S A PAIN IN MY LEFT LEG
JUST ABOVE THE KNEE.

IS IT A THROBBING PAIN
OR A SHARP PAIN?
THROBBING.

NO, NO -- SHARP.
NO -- THROBBING.

HOW LONG HAVE YOU HAD IT?

ABOUT...THREE YEARS.

I HAVE AN OPENING
THIS FRIDAY AROUND 2:15.

B-BUT COULDN´T YOU JUST
CHECK ME OUT HERE?

AS I´VE EXPLAINED TO YOU
BEFORE, MR. GREELEY,

THERE ARE INSURANCE REGULATIONS
THAT PROHIBIT ME

FROM DIAGNOSING YOU
WITHOUT A PROPER CHECKUP.

BUT IT´S JUST
A LITTLE PAIN.

A LITTLE PAIN
CAN BECOME A BIG LAWSUIT.

LET´S SAY, HYPOTHETICALLY,
I WERE TO MISDIAGNOSE YOU NOW

WITH AN OSTEOARTHRITIC
CONDITION

AND ADVISE YOU
TO PURCHASE SOME ASPIRIN.

YOU ADHERE
TO MY SUGGESTION,

AND THIS EVENING,
YOU DROP DEAD --

AGAIN, HYPOTHETICALLY --
OF A VASCULAR BRAIN DISORDER

EXPRESSING ITSELF UNILATERALLY
IN YOUR LEFT LEG.

CAN YOU IMAGINE
THE MALPRACTICE CASE

THAT YOUR FAMILY WOULD HAVE
AGAINST ME?

SORRY, I DON´T MAKE THE RULES.
I JUST LIVE BY THEM.

FRIDAY -- 2:15, THEN.

EHHH...

THREE EXAMINING ROOMS
BACK HERE,

SPACIOUS RECEPTION AREA.

[ LAUGHS ]
JUST LIKE IN THE BIG CITY, HUH?

THAT´S JUST THE PROBLEM.
I SPENT MY LIFE IN THIS OFFICE.

THIS IS EXACTLY THE OFFICE
I´M TRYING TO GET AWAY FROM.

DID I MENTION
THIS HAS DSL CAPABILITY?

DO YOU SMELL THAT?

[ SNIFFS ]
SMELL WHAT?

PERFUME.

OH. [ LAUGHS ]
ESTEE LAUDER WHITE LINEN.

NO, NO -- THIS IS COMING
FROM THE STREET.

THE -- W-- UH...

IT´S CALLED JEANETTE.

IT WAS POPULAR IN EUROPE
IN THE EARLY ´80s.

[ HORN HONKS ]
A WEALTHY FRENCHMAN HAD THE
FRAGRANCE NAMED FOR HIS FIANCéE.

[ TIRES SCREECH, HORN HONKS ]
ONLY AFTER SHE DIED,
HE HAD IT DISCONTINUED,

WHICH MADE IT INCREASINGLY
DIFFICULT TO SURPRISE MY WIFE
WITH EVERY CHRISTMAS.

IT WAS HER FAVORITE.

YOU MEAN YOU...SMELL
YOUR DECEASED WIFE?

LOOK AT THIS.
WHAT IS THIS PLACE?

THIS OFFENSIVE
MONSTROSITY?

IT WAS THE TRAIN DEPOT
TILL THE CITY SHUT IT DOWN.

EVERWOOD DOESN´T HAVE A TRAIN
RUNNING THROUGH?

[ LAUGHS ] I´M AFRAID WE´VE
CEASED BEING A DESTINATION.

[ SIGHS ]

NOT TO EVERYBODY.

UH...

OOH.

OH. UH...

[ DOOR OPENS, HINGES CREAK ]

UHHHH...
I-I´D BE CAREFUL.

YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT ANIMAL
MIGHT HAVE TAKEN REFUGE IN HERE

OR, GOD FORBID, A HOBO.

YOU SEE WHAT I SEE?

MULTIPLE OPPORTUNITIES
FOR STAPH INFECTION?

NO, MRS. BAXWORTH.

MY NEW OFFICE.

UH --

[ BELL RINGS ]

THE MOST IMPORTANT THING
TO REMEMBER ABOUT MANGA

IS IT´S COMPLETELY DIFFERENT
THAN AMERICAN COMICS

IN EVERY WAY, SHAPE, FORM.

I-I MEAN, FORGET STYLE.
IT´S MORE THAN AESTHETICS.

THE WRITERS OF MANGA --
THEY WRITE HEROES

WHO ARE SOMEONE´S KID
O-O-OR SOMEONE´S BOSS.

BECAUSE THE HERO´S CIVILIAN LIFE
IS AS IMPORTANT TO THE STORY

AS THEIR SECRET IDENTITY.

I-IT´S -- IT´S NOT...
JUST CLARK KENT

WAITING
TO TURN INTO SUPERMAN.

I-IT´S...SUPERMAN...WAITING
TO TURN INTO CLARK KENT.

WOW.

I NEVER KNEW
COMICS COULD BE SO HOT.

HOT?

♫ I´M SO IN LOVE WITH YOU ♫

♫ WHATEVER YOU WANT TO DO ♫

♫ IS ALRIGHT WITH ME ♫

MINE´S AL GREEN´S
"LET´S STAY TOGETHER."

I THINK IT SPEAKS
TO A GIRL´S DUAL DESIRES

TO BE HELD AND RAVAGED
SIMULTANEOUSLY.

NOT IN A LITERAL SENSE.
IT´S MORE PRIMAL.

JUST LISTENING TO A SONG
LIKE THAT MAKES ME WANT TO...

TAKE OFF MY CLOTHES
AND...

♫ ...WITH YOU ♫

[ LAUGHS ] RIGHT HERE --
IN FRONT OF EVERYBODY?

WHY NOT?

♫ SINCE WE´VE BEEN TOGETHER ♫

EXCUSE ME.

YEAH, CAN I HELP YOU?

YEAH, YOU´RE PARKED
IN MY SPOT.
YOUR SPOT?

THAT´S YOUR BLACK, FOREIGN-MADE
SPORTS UTILITY VEHICLE

WITH THE NEW YORK PLATES,
IS IT NOT?
YES, IT IS.

IT´S IN MY SPOT. PARK THERE
AGAIN, I´LL HAVE IT TOWED.

I´M SORRY. I DIDN´T SEE
A NAME ON THE CURB.

IT´S IMPLIED.
IT´S IN FRONT OF MY OFFICE.

YOU´RE THE OTHER DOCTOR.
HOW DO YOU DO? I´M ANDY BROWN.

I KNOW WHO YOU ARE.
AND IF BY "OTHER DOCTOR,"

YOU MEANT "EVERWOOD´S
PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIAN,"
YES, THAT´S ME.

ABOUT THIS WHOLE OFFICE THING,
I WANT YOU TO KNOW

THAT I´M NOT HERE
TO STEP ON YOUR TURF.

MY "TURF"? THAT´S RICH.
NOBODY TOLD YOU, DID THEY?

TOLD ME WHAT?
I WOULDN´T WASTE YOUR TIME

TURNING THIS PLACE
INTO A DOCTOR´S OFFICE.

NO ONE WILL USE IT.
WHY´S THAT?

THAT BUILDING OVER THERE
WILL CONTINUE TO RECEIVE

ALL OF THE PATIENTS
IN THIS COMMUNITY.
THE FLOWER MART?

THE OTHER ONE --
MY DOCTOR´S OFFICE.
HOW DO YOU FIGURE?

I HAVE BEEN THE DOCTOR IN THIS
COMMUNITY FOR OVER 15 YEARS.

BEFORE ME,
IT WAS MY FATHER.

WAS IT YOUR FATHER´S FATHER
BEFORE HIM?

BECAUSE THAT WOULD BE
REALLY COOL.

DO WHAT YOU WANT, SIR.

I´M JUST ADVISING YOU
NOT TO WASTE YOUR TIME.

I APPRECIATE YOUR CONCERN,
DOCTOR,

BUT I CAME A LONG WAY
TO OPEN THIS OFFICE, AND
NOTHING´S GONNA STOP ME.

IN THAT CASE,
HAPPY PAINTING.

NICE MEETING YOU.

NUTBAG.

[ BREATHING HEAVILY ]

WE´RE ALMOST THERE.

I TOLD YOU
YOU´RE GONNA LOVE THIS PLACE.

YEAH. I´D LOVE IT EVEN MORE
IF IT WERE INDOORS.

OKAY, YOU READY?

LOOK.

YOU CAN SEE THE WHOLE TOWN
FROM HERE.

UM, THERE´S MAIN STREET...
AND THE GRADE SCHOOL.

THE FACTORIES ARE ALL THAT WAY,
AND THAT´S THE CHURCH ROW --

EPISCOPALIAN, PRESBYTERIAN,
CATHOLIC, LUTHERAN, AND BAPTIST.

WHERE´S THE SYNAGOGUE?

ARE YOU JEWISH?

HALF. MY MOM I--

WAS.

SORRY.

NO BIGGIE.

TALKING ABOUT HER
IS PRETTY UNAVOIDABLE,

WHAT WITH HER
GIVING BIRTH TO ME AND ALL.

WHAT´S IT LIKE --

HAVING A DAD WHO´S FAMOUS?

[ SCOFFS ]
IT´S LIKE THIS --

YOU´RE 8 YEARS OLD.
HE MISSES YOUR BIRTHDAY PARTY.

YOU WANT TO CRY ABOUT IT,
BUT HE´S ON TV THAT NIGHT

FOR SEPARATING THE HEADS
OF SIAMESE TWINS.

Y-Y-YOU´RE 10. HE´S NOT THERE
TO SEE YOU IN THE SCHOOL PLAY.

HE IS, HOWEVER,
IN THE NEW YORK TIMES

FOR RESTORING THE VISION
OF A 5-YEAR-OLD KID.

I THINK OF HIM
AS MY DAD´S EXCUSE

FOR MISSING MY
ELEMENTARY-SCHOOL GRADUATION.

YOU WANT TO BE MAD AT HIM,
YOU WANT TO HATE HIM,

BUT YOU CAN´T.

HE´S SAVING LIVES.

AMY, WHY ARE YOU
TALKING TO ME?

WHAT?

YOU SEEM LIKE
YOU HAVE ENOUGH FRIENDS.

WHY ARE YOU GOING OUT OF YOUR
WAY TO MAKE ME FEEL WELCOME?

YOU´VE GOT KIND OF A...
TRAGIC/LONELY THING GOING ON.

I DIG IT.

YOU DON´T HAPPEN TO LISTEN
TO AL GREEN, DO YOU?

WHO´S AL GREEN?

OH...

[ LAUGHS ]

UH, I, UH,
SHOULD GET TO CLASS.

OKAY.
ALRIGHT, SEE YOU LATER.

BYE.

DAD´S GONNA SKIN YOUR ASS
WHEN HE FINDS OUT YOU´RE
HANGING OUT WITH THAT KID.

WELL, DAD´S NOT
FINDING ANYTHING OUT, BRIGHT,

BECAUSE YOU´RE NOT TELLING HIM.
OH, AREN´T I?

NOT IF YOU VALUE
THAT COLLECTION OF PORN YOU HAVE
STASHED ON OUR COMPUTER.

WHAT WAS
THE FILE NAME AGAIN?

OH, YEAH --
"FAVORITE BIBLICAL PASSAGES."

DUDE, SHE IS SMOOTH.

Delia: IT´S CROOKED.

SURE, IF YOU LOOK AT IT
STRAIGHT ON.

BUT IF YOU LEAN A LITTLE BIT,
IT´S PERFECT. SEE?

[ MOTORCYCLE ENGINE STOPS ]

YOU DOC BROWN?

YES, I AM.

YOU´RE SCRAWNIER
THAN YOUR PICTURE.

NICE TO MEET YOU, SPARKY.
NAME´S EDNA HARPER.

HELLO, EDNA.

WHO´S THE PRIVATE FIRST CLASS?
I´M DELIA.

WORD ON THE FRONT
IS YOU´RE TURNING THIS
INTO A DOCTOR´S OFFICE.

IF SO, I´VE COME
TO INQUIRE ABOUT EMPLOY.

WHAT DO YOU DO?

40 YEARS´
NURSING EXPERIENCE.

THAT INCLUDES
TWO TOURS OF NAM.

ARMY NURSE CORPS --
THRICE DECORATED.

HERE´S A RESUME. I´M SURE YOU´LL
FIND IT TO YOUR SATISFACTION.

YOU WORKED
FOR DR. ABBOTT?

SENIOR AND JUNIOR.

WHY´D YOU LEAVE?

AN UNFORTUNATE INCIDENT,

THE DETAILS OF WHICH
I´D RATHER NOT DIVULGE

ON ACCOUNT OF
THEY´RE OF A PERSONAL NATURE.

I CAN ASSURE YOU, HOWEVER,
THE PARTING WAS MUTUAL.

WELL, WHY DON´T I LOOK AT THIS
AND CALL YOU LATER IN THE WEEK?

WILL DO.
SEE YOU AROUND, DOC.

ADIOS, PRIVATE.

[ MOTORCYCLE ENGINE TURNS OVER ]

[ PIANO NOTES PLAYING ]

[ NOTES CONTINUE ]

STOP IT!

IT JUST SITS HERE.
NO ONE TOUCHES IT.

I SAID STOP IT.

DAD!
THAT´S ENOUGH --
BOTH OF YOU.

DELIA, GO ON UPSTAIRS
AND GET READY FOR BED.

I´LL BE UP IN A FEW MINUTES
TO READ TO YOU.

BUT I WANT TO --
GO ON.

SHE DOES HAVE A POINT,
YOU KNOW.

YOU GOT TO START
PLAYING AGAIN SOMETIME.

YOU´RE RIGHT.

I AM?
YES, FATHER.

FOR IT IS ONLY
THROUGH THE GIFT OF MUSIC

THAT I CAN TRULY HEAL THE PAIN
THAT GROWS DEEP WITHIN ME.

LIKE YOU EVER CARED
IF I PLAYED OR NOT.

[ SIGHS ]

[ SIGHS DEEPLY ]

[ WATER RUNNING ]

WHAT DID YOU SAY TO HIM?

WHO?
MR. WARREN --
ABOUT HIS WIFE.

WHAT COULD I SAY?

SHE DIED ON MY WATCH.

ON TOP OF THAT, THE POOR GUY
WAS LEFT WITH A FAMILY TO RAISE.

GUESS HOW MANY KIDS.

THREE.

SIX.

AND FOR A SINGLE DAD,
THAT´S SIX KIDS TOO MANY.

YOU SHOULD GROW A BEARD.

YOU´D LOOK DISTINGUISHED
WITH A BEARD.

I THINK I´D LOOK
LIKE MY UNCLE NORMAN.

YOUR UNCLE NORMAN
LOOKS DISTINGUISHED.

YOU´VE GOT A THING
FOR MY UNCLE NORMAN?

DID YOU EVER THINK
ABOUT IT?

YOU AND MY UNCLE NORMAN?
I TRY NOT TO.

WHAT´D YOU DO
IF YOU WERE LEFT ALONE.

I THINK IT´S IMPORTANT
WE TALK ABOUT IT.

NO, YOU´RE NOT
GONNA EXERCISE THE SPOUSAL

"I THINK IT´S IMPORTANT
WE TALK ABOUT IT" CLAUSE.

WHY NOT?

BECAUSE I´M TIRED,
I´VE HAD A 16-HOUR DAY,

AND THESE CONVERSATIONS ALWAYS
END UP GETTING ME IN TROUBLE.

AND AS FAR
AS HYPOTHETICAL TRAGEDIES GO,

CAN´T WE START
WITH A LESSER ONE?

WHY DON´T YOU ASK ME
WHAT I´D DO

IF I LOST MY SIGHT OR MY HEARING
OR I COULD NEVER WALK AGAIN?

WHY DON´T YOU ASK ME
WHAT I´D DO

IF I COULD NEVER SEE
ANOTHER YANKEES GAME

OR EAT ANOTHER SLICE
OF FAMOUS RAY´S PIZZA?

BUT DON´T ASK ME
WHAT I´D DO WITHOUT YOU.

I HATE WHEN YOU DO THAT.

SAY THE RIGHT THING?

ATTEMPT
TO SAY THE RIGHT THING.

THE ACTUAL RIGHT THING
WOULD HAVE BEEN FAR LESS CHEESY.

GOOD MORNING, DOCTOR.

IT WAS.
[ HORN HONKS ]

YOU KNOW,
YOUR OFFICE IS BACK THERE.

I KNOW WHERE IT IS.
I´M GETTING A CUP OF COFFEE.

YOU KNOW, YOU LOOK VAGUELY
FAMILIAR TO ME.

PERHAPS I REMIND YOU
OF ONE OF THE INMATES YOU KNEW

AT WHATEVER ASYLUM
YOU ESCAPED FROM.

IT´S MY FIRST DAY.
YOU GONNA WISH ME LUCK?

OH, IT´LL TAKE MORE THAN LUCK TO
LAUNCH THE U.S.S. WACKO,

BUT WHAT THE HEY...
GOOD LUCK.

NOW,
IF YOU´RE DONE BLATHERING,

HAVE A NICE DAY.

WHATEVER.

[ CHUCKLES ]

YES.

[ LAUGHS ]

[ SIGHS ]

EDNA HARPER,
WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

WELL, LET´S SEE.
I´M IN A DOCTOR´S OFFICE,

I´M WEARING MY NURSE WHITES --
MY TAXES?

DOES DOC ABBOTT KNOW
YOU´RE WORKING HERE?

NOPE.
HE WILL NOW.

MRS. BAXWORTH, HOW ARE YOU
THIS FINE DAY?

JUST FINE. I CAME TO WISH YOU
WELL ON YOUR NEW VENTURE.

I BROUGHT YOU A PLANT.

WELL, THANK YOU.
THAT´S VERY KIND OF YOU.

MY, MY. JUST LOOK WHAT
YOU HAVE DONE WITH THIS PLACE.

SOMETHING WRONG
WITH YOUR NECK?

IT´S JUST BEEN
A LITTLE STIFF LATELY.

WANT ME TO TAKE A LOOK AT IT?

OH, I WOULD.

I´VE MADE AN APPOINTMENT
TOMORROW WITH DOC ABBOTT.

WHY PUT OFF TILL TOMORROW
WHAT YOU CAN DIAGNOSE TODAY?

IT´S NOT
THAT I DON´T TRUST YOU.
IT´S MY LOSS.

I´D BE LIKE EXAMINING MS. TAYLOR
ALL OVER AGAIN.

YOU -- YOU OPERATED
ON LIZ TAYLOR?

I CONFESS.

[ SIGHS ]

MAYBE YOU SHOULD
TAKE A LOOK AT MY NECK.

I MEAN, I´M SURE
DOC ABBOTT WOULDN´T MIND.

OH, MY GOODNESS GRACIOUS.

WHEE-E-E!

IT´S NOT OFTEN I FIND
A THIRD GRADER

LOST IN PROFOUND THOUGHT
ON THEIR LUNCH HOUR.

HEY, MR. IRV.
I DON´T FEEL GOOD.

YEAH?

WHY IS THAT?

CAN YOU KEEP A SECRET?

I CAN.

I THINK MY DAD´S SICK.
HE TALKS TO HIMSELF --

TO MY MOM
LIKE SHE´S STILL HERE.

ONLY THAT´S A PROBLEM, BECAUSE
SHE DIED EIGHT MONTHS AGO.

I´M NOT GONNA LIE TO YOU,
DELIA.

SOUNDS LIKE YOUR DAD´S
GOT A CASE OF SOMETHING.

I KNEW IT.

BUT WHAT HE HAS,
IT´S THE ONE SICKNESS

MOST PEOPLE SPEND THEIR
WHOLE LIFE TRYING TO CATCH.

WHAT DOES HE HAVE?

A DISTRAUGHT HEART.

IT´S NOT LIKE OTHER DISEASES.
IT CAN´T KILL YOU.

JUST THE OPPOSITE, IN FACT.

IN MOST CASES,

IT MAKES A PERSON
FEEL ALIVE FOR THE FIRST TIME.

ONLY PROBLEM IS...
THERE´S NO REMEDY FOR IT

ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD.

WELL, AS I SUSPECTED, A MILD
CASE OF TORTICOLIS,

BROUGHT ON, MY GUESS WOULD BE,
BY A NEW BED.

I JUST BOUGHT
A NEW CALIFORNIA KING.

THE CULPRIT MIGHT TAKE
SOME GETTING USED TO.

UNTIL THEN, I´M GONNA PRESCRIBE
YOU A MILD MUSCLE RELAXANT.

EDNA WILL GET YOU A NECK BRACE.
I WANT YOU TO WEAR IT.

I DIDN´T BRING MY PURSE.

HOW ABOUT I RUN YOU BY A CHECK
A LITTLE LATER?

I´M NOT CHARGING YOU.

FOR THE NECK BRACE, FINE,
BUT FOR THE VISIT, I HAVE MY --

MRS. BAXWORTH, I´M NOT CHARGING
ANYONE FOR ANYTHING.

MY SERVICES ARE FREE.

F-FREE?

UH...

A-AS IN...

NO CASH, NO CHECKS,
NO CREDIT CARDS --

NOT EVEN DISCOVER.

[ SCOFFS ] WELL,
WHAT WILL YOU DO FOR INCOME?

I WAS A BRAIN SURGEON
FOR 15 YEARS.

I HAVE
A FEW PENNIES TUCKED AWAY.

HERE´S THAT PRESCRIPTION.

HUH! OKAY.

WELL...[ Laughing ]
I´M OFF TO THE PHARMACY.

TOODLES.

YOU REALIZE BY TELLING HER
WHAT YOU JUST TOLD HER,

YOU TOLD THE WHOLE TOWN.

YOU DON´T SAY?

[ CHUCKLES ]

LOOKING FOR AMY?

SHE´S NOT COMING.

AND YOU ARE...

HER BROTHER. I LEFT YOU THAT
NOTE. I WANTED TO TALK TO YOU.

YOU DIDN´T HAVE TO
GO TO ALL THE TROUBLE

OF IMITATING FEMININE CURSIVE.

THAT´S MY REAL HANDWRITING.

WHOOPS.
STAY AWAY FROM AMY.

SHE´S GOT A BOYFRIEND.
SHE TELL YOU THAT?

NO, BUT SHE DIDN´T
TALK ABOUT YOU, EITHER,

SO WE ONLY COVERED
THE IMPORTANT STUFF.

HEY, NICE BAG.

WONDER WHAT´S IN IT.

"ITO"?

HIS STUFF´S WAY EXPENSIVE,
MAN.

OH.

WHAT DO YOU SAY
WE DOUBLE ITS VALUE?

BRIGHT, STOP IT.

BRIGHT?

THAT´S HIS NAME?
IRONIC.

GO AHEAD, AMY. TELL HIM WHY
YOU´RE HANGING OUT WITH HIM.

EPHRAM, I CAN EXPLAIN.

AH, FORGET IT.
THERE´S NOTHING TO SAY.

DON´T WORRY, BRIGHT.

I´LL BE STAYING AWAY FROM
YOUR SISTER...

FOR GOOD.

BY THE WAY, DUDE,
NICE DAD.

HAS HE ALWAYS BEEN
SUCH A HEAD CASE,

OR JUST SINCE
YOUR MOM BOUGHT IT?

OH!

Amy: BRIGHT.

BRIGHT, GET OFF HIM!

OW.

EPHRAM...

YOU OKAY?
WHAT´S GOING ON?

I DON´T WANT TO
TALK ABOUT IT.

YOU.

WELL, I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN
IT WAS ONE OF YOUR OFFSPRING

THAT DID THIS TO MY SON.

YOU GUYS KNOW EACH OTHER?

MY SISTER FORGOT TO TELL YOU?

MY DAD´S THE REAL DOCTOR
IN THIS TOWN.

COME ON.
LET´S GO, KIDS...

BEFORE I SET A BAD EXAMPLE.

[ CHUCKLES ]

COME ON.

[ ENGINE SHUTS OFF ]

SO...

WHAT DO YOU GOT TO SAY
FOR YOURSELF?

GIVE IT UP.

I THOUGHT YOU´D CHANGE.
I THOUGHT IF WE MOVED HERE,

YOU´D STOP WITH THE FIGHTING,
WITH THE ACTING OUT.

YEAH, I GOT THIS BLACK EYE
BECAUSE OF YOU...DICK.

HEY, YOU KEEP TALKING TO ME
LIKE THAT,

YOU´RE GONNA
GET YOURSELF ANOTHER ONE.

HE SAID YOU WERE CRAZY.
AND YOU KNOW WHAT? YOU ARE.

YOU QUIT YOUR JOB,
YOU GROW THIS UGLY-ASS BEARD,

YOU LOOK LIKE YOU WEAR
YOUR CLOTHES TO BED,

AND YOU MOVE US TO
NOWHERESVILLE, USA.

AND WHY?! ´CAUSE SOMEBODY TOLD
YOU IT WAS PRETTY ONCE?!

AND IF THAT´S NOT ENOUGH,

YOU TALK TO MOM LIKE SHE´S STILL
HERE!! I´VE SEEN YOU.

WHAT DO I HAVE TO SAY
FOR MYSELF?!

WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO SAY
FOR YOURSELF?!

I CAN´T BELIEVE
YOU THINK MY BEARD IS UGLY.

MOM WOULD NEVER HAVE
DONE THIS TO US!

SHE NEVER WOULD HAVE MOVED US
HERE OR GONE CRAZY!
DON´T BE SURE OF THAT.

I´M SURE. I KNEW HER.
YOU DIDN´T KNOW HER.

YOU WERE NEVER AROUND.
WE ALL JUST TOLERATED YOU.

THAT´S PRETTY GOOD.
WHAT ELSE YOU GOT?

I WISH YOU´D DIED
INSTEAD OF HER!!

I WISH I DID, TOO,
YOU LITTLE BASTARD!!

I HATE YOU!
I HATE YOU RIGHT BACK!
NOW GET IN THAT HOUSE!

I´M GOING FOR A RIDE!

OH, YEAH?!
YEAH.

AT SOME POINT,
YOU´RE GETTING IN THAT HOUSE!

I RUN A TIGHT SHIP.
SO I NOTICED.

WANT A CUP OF COFFEE?

ONLY IF IT´S SPIKED.

I WANT TO, UH, APOLOGIZE

FOR THAT AWFUL DISPLAY
OF PARENTING TECHNIQUES.

I´M JUST RECENTLY
BECOMING FAMILIAR WITH THEM.

WELL, THE ONLY THING HARDER
THAN BEING A PARENT

IS BEING A SINGLE ONE.

ARE YOU, UH...
SINGLE? NO.
I HAVE A HUSBAND.

A WONDERFUL, FUNNY,
AND CARING MAN

WHOSE ONLY FLAW IS HE TRAVELS
EIGHT MONTHS OF THE YEAR

SELLING COMPUTER SOFTWARE.

YOU KNOW, MY WIFE
WAS THE PERFECT PARENT.

I SWEAR THAT´S NOT
REVISIONIST HISTORY, EITHER.

SHE REALLY WAS.

JULIA KNEW WHAT TO SAY,
WHAT TO DO,

WHEN TO TALK TO THEM,
WHEN TO IGNORE THEM.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT
THE FORAMEN MAGNUM IS?

SHOULD I?

IT´S THE HOLE
AT THE BASE OF THE SKULL.

MOST DOCTORS NEED A DEVICE
TO FIND IT.

I NEVER DID.

I COULD ALWAYS LOCATE IT
WITH MY HANDS.

SURGERY JUST CAME
INSTINCTIVELY TO ME.

JULIA WAS THE SAME WAY
WITH PARENTING.

IT HAS TO DO WITH HER,
DOESN´T IT --

WHY YOU CAME TO EVERWOOD?

DO YOU BELIEVE THAT PEOPLE
LIVE ON AFTER THEY DIE?

THAT...
THAT THEIR SOULS ARE WITH US?

YEAH, I DO.

I NEED TO PROVE TO MY WIFE
THAT I CAN DO THIS...

THAT I CAN BE
THE KIND OF DOCTOR,

THE KIND OF FATHER

THAT SHE WANTED ME TO BE
WHEN SHE WAS ALIVE.

I KNOW
THAT MAKES ME SEEM NUTS.

MAYBE I AM.

TO LOVE SOMEONE SO MUCH

YOU´RE STILL PROVING IT TO THEM
AFTER THEY DIE?

WELL, IF THAT´S CRAZY, ANDY,

I HOPE MY OWN INSANITY
ISN´T FAR AWAY.

GOOD MORNING.
BUZZ OFF.

AND DO ME A FAVOR -- KEEP
YOUR SON AWAY FROM MY DAUGHTER.

I DON´T THINK
THAT´S HOW IT WENT.

WHY ON EARTH WOULD MY AMY
ASSOCIATE WITH YOUR MISFIT?

WELL, HE SAID SOMETHING
ABOUT A CRACK DEAL.

YOU THINK YOU´RE SO FUNNY.

IF YOU COULD GET OVER WHATEVER
YOUR PROBLEM IS WITH ME,

WE MIGHT BE ABLE TO TEACH
EACH OTHER A THING OR TWO.

IF YOU´RE SO SMART,
WHERE ARE ALL YOUR PATIENTS?

THEY´RE JUST GATHERING OUTSIDE
MY OFFICE NOW.

IS IT TRUE, DR. BROWN?

ARE YOUR SERVICES REALLY
FREE OF CHARGE?

ONLY MY MEDICAL ONES.

[ LAUGHTER ]

YOU´RE NOT CHARGING ANYTHING?

FOR REAL?
FOR REAL.

YOU CAN´T
CHARGE PEOPLE NOTHING.

STAY OUT OF THIS,
DR. "I CAN´T DIAGNOSE YOU
WITHOUT AN APPOINTMENT."

YEAH.
YEAH. YEAH.

DR. ABBOTT´S GOT A POINT.
I CAN´T JUST CHARGE NOTHING.

SO I´LL TELL YOU
WHAT I´M GONNA DO --

FROM THIS MOMENT ON,
I´M DOUBLING MY PRICES.

OH, THAT´S FUNNY.
HE´S FUNNY.

[ MOTORCYCLE REVS ]

SO...SO, IT´S TRUE.
YOU ARE A PART OF THIS MADNESS.

WELL, WHAT WAS I SUPPOSED TO DO?
YOU GOT RID OF ME.

YOU QUIT.

YOU CUT BACK MY HOURS.

AND DON´T GIVE ME
THAT BOGUS REASON WHY.

YOU KNOW THE REAL REASON.
THE WHOLE TOWN DOES.

YOU HAVE DONE SOME LUDICROUS,
ASININE THINGS IN YOUR LIFETIME,

BUT WORKING FOR THIS MAN?

OH, THAT TAKES THE CAKE,
MOTHER.

MOVE IT OR LOSE IT, JUNIOR.

[ LAUGHTER ]

HEY.

I EXPECTED
YOU WOULDN´T TALK TO ME,

SO I BROUGHT
A PEACE OFFERING.

WHY SHOULD I TALK TO YOU, AMY?
SO YOU CAN LIE TO ME MORE?

I DIDN´T LIE TO YOU.

I JUST DIDN´T TELL YOU
THE WHOLE TRUTH, IS ALL.

DO YOU HAVE A BOYFRIEND?
YES.

BUT I WANT YOU TO MEET HIM.
IF YOU DO, YOU´LL UNDERSTAND.

THAT WAS RIGHT ON MY LIST OF
THINGS TO DO TODAY,

RIGHT BETWEEN PICKING UP
MY DRY CLEANING

AND CHOPPING OFF MY HAND.

HE´S IN DENVER.

THAT´S THREE HOURS AWAY
FROM HERE, FOUR BY BUS.

IF WE WANT TO MAKE IT BACK
BY DINNER, WE HAVE TO LEAVE NOW.

YOU´RE SERIOUS ABOUT THIS?

COME WITH ME.

AFTER THAT, YOU DON´T HAVE TO
TALK TO ME EVER AGAIN

IF YOU DON´T WANT TO.

THAT´S IT FOR THE PATIENTS.
I´M AUDI 5000.

HOLD ON THERE A SECOND.

YOU WANT TO TALK
ABOUT SOMETHING?
YES, I DO.

I WASN´T ENTIRELY FORTHCOMING

REGARDING
MY PREVIOUS EMPLOYMENT.

I SHOULD HAVE TOLD YOU
OLD TIGHT-ASS WAS MY SON.
APOLOGIES, SPARKY.

EDNA, IF WORKING FOR ME IS PART
OF SOME REVENGE SCHEME --

HECK, NO. I NEED THE GIG.

THOUGH I GOT TO ADMIT
I DID KIND OF ENJOY

THE LOOK ON THAT
SOUR APPLE´S FACE THIS MORNING.

YOU WANT TO TELL ME
WHAT HAPPENED?

HIS POPS DIED TWO YEARS AGO.

I GOT REHITCHED
NOT LONG THEREAFTER.

IT CAUSED QUITE A SCANDAL
IN THE COMMUNITY,

AND JUNIOR THOUGHT IT WAS
AFFECTING HIS BUSINESS,

NOT TO MENTION HE WAS NEVER TOO
CRAZY ABOUT THE NEW BEAU,

SO HE CUT BACK MY HOURS
AND I QUIT.

HOW SOON AFTER
DID YOU REMARRY?

TWO MONTHS.
TWO MONTHS?

DO I STRIKE YOU
AS THE MOURNING TYPE?

[ Chuckling ]
NO, NOT REALLY.

ANYWAY, I KNEW
WHERE JUNIOR WAS COMING FROM.

HE WORSHIPPED HIS POPS.

NEVER GOT ON WITH HIM,
BUT HE SURE DID WORSHIP HIM.

THE TRUTH IS
THEY WERE EXACTLY ALIKE.

YOU THINK THAT´S POSSIBLE?

THAT A FATHER AND SON
WHO DON´T GET ALONG

CAN ACTUALLY
HAVE SOMETHING IN COMMON?

IN MY EXPERIENCE, WHEN A FATHER
AND SON DON´T GET ALONG,

IT USUALLY MEANS THEY GOT
EVERYTHING IN COMMON.

[ HORN HONKS ]

THERE´S MY HUNK OF BURNING LOVE
AS WE SPEAK.

SEE YOU ON THE FLIP SIDE.

SO LONG, EDNA.

SO THIS IS YOUR BOYFRIEND.

EPHRAM BROWN,
MEET COLLIN HART.

[ SIGHS ]

COLLIN GREW UP
DOWN THE BLOCK FROM ME.

WE DID EVERYTHING TOGETHER.

BRIGHT AND HIM
WERE BEST FRIENDS.

THEY WERE ALWAYS
GETTING INTO TROUBLE.

AND LAST FOURTH OF JULY,

THEY DECIDED TO SWIPE
COLLIN´S DAD´S TRUCK

AND GO FOR A JOY RIDE.

THERE WAS AN ACCIDENT.
COLLIN DROVE.

BRIGHT WAS THROWN
FROM THE VEHICLE.

HE DOESN´T REMEMBER
WHAT HAPPENED.

BY THE TIME
THE AMBULANCE GOT THERE,

COLLIN HAD FALLEN UNCONSCIOUS.

HE HASN´T WOKEN UP
EVER SINCE.

WHEN I HEARD ABOUT
YOUR DAD COMING TO TOWN,

I THOUGHT, "IF ANYONE COULD HELP
HIM, IT WOULD BE HIM, RIGHT?"

[ SIGHS ]

I´M SORRY IF I HURT YOUR
FEELINGS, EPHRAM.

I WAS GONNA TELL YOU,
I JUST...

I DIDN´T KNOW HOW.

IT SMELLS GOOD IN HERE.

WHICH IN AND OF ITSELF
IS A SUCCESS.

WHAT ARE YOU COOKING?

ONLY THE FINEST
IN HAUTE CUISINE --

REHEATED
KENTUCKY FRIED CHICKEN.

I´M GONNA SET THE TABLE.

DELIA, WAIT. THIS COULD BE
MY FIRST EDIBLE MEAL.

WHY DON´T YOU GO DOWN TO THE
BASEMENT, GET THE SILVERWARE.

I´LL GET THE FINE CHINA.

OKAY.

HE NEVER EVEN LOOKS ME
IN THE EYES ANYMORE.

IT´S BECAUSE
YOU DON´T TALK TO HIM.

I TALK TO HIM.

YOU TALK AT HIM.

TRY ASKING HIM HOW HIS DAY WAS.
TRY LISTENING.

DELIA´S SO MUCH EASIER.

SHE´S 4, ANDY.

IT DOESN´T MATTER.

SHE´S ALWAYS KNOWN
HOW MUCH I LOVE HER.

SOMEHOW I´VE NEVER BEEN ABLE

TO GET THAT MESSAGE
THROUGH TO HIM.

[ INHALES DEEPLY ]
WELL, CALL ME AN OPTIMIST --

THIS IS ONE CASE, DOCTOR,
THAT´S NOT TERMINAL.

HEY, GUESS WHAT.
I FIGURED IT OUT.
FIGURED WHAT OUT?

WHERE YOU SHOULD GO IF
SOMETHING EVER HAPPENS TO ME.

OH, NOT
THIS MACABRE SUBJECT AGAIN.

EVERWOOD, COLORADO.

WHERE?

WHEN I WAS A KID,
[ SIGHS ]

I TOOK THIS TRAIN TRIP WITH
MY PARENTS ACROSS THE COUNTRY.

THERE WAS A SNOWSTORM
IN THE MOUNTAINS,

AND WE HAD TO STOP FOR A DAY
IN A TOWN CALLED EVERWOOD.

IT WAS THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PLACE
I´D EVER SEEN, ANDY.

IT WAS ON THIS HILL
SURROUNDED BY THE ROCKIES.

AND I REMEMBER THINKING
EVEN THEN,

"THIS IS WHAT HEAVEN
MUST LOOK LIKE."

THERE´S NO CHANCE THIS PLACE

IS ALSO A MAJOR CENTER
FOR NEUROSURGERY, IS THERE?

[ Laughing ] SORRY.

THAT´S THE OTHER PART
OF THE DEAL --

NO MORE WORKING FOR
THE RICH AND FAMOUS, DOCTOR.

EVEN SMALL-TOWN FOLK
NEED MEDICAL MIRACLES.

I´LL HAVE TO START
WRITING THIS STUFF DOWN.

JUST REMEMBER ONE THING --
EVERWOOD, COLORADO.

THAT´S WHERE I´LL BE.

YOU CAN´T BE IN THE BAHAMAS?

NOPE.
EVERWOOD OR BUST.

THEN THAT´S WHERE
I´LL BE, TOO.

LISTEN, UH, DELIA,
WE SHOULD TALK ABOUT THIS.

IT´S OKAY, DAD.
I KNOW WHAT´S WRONG WITH YOU.

YOU DO?

YOU HAVE A DISTRAUGHT HEART.

YEAH.

YEAH, I DO.

COME HERE.

[ SNIFFLES ]

[ Crying ]
I LOVE YOU SO MUCH, KIDDO.

I LOVE YOU, TOO, DAD.

[ SNIFFLES ]

[ SLOW CLASSICAL PIANO MUSIC
PLAYS ]

YOU´RE PLAYING.

I FELT LIKE IT, THAT´S ALL.

I´M GONNA FINISH
SETTING THE TABLE.

HOW WAS YOUR DAY?

IT WAS OKAY. I FOUND OUT
I´M IN LOVE WITH A GIRL

WHO´S IN LOVE WITH A GUY
IN A COMA,

BUT OTHER THAN THAT
IT WAS PRETTY STANDARD.

ABOUT THE OTHER DAY --

I SAID SOME THINGS
I DIDN´T MEAN.

WE BOTH DID.

AND THAT COMMENT
ABOUT MY BEARD?

NOW, THAT I MEANT.

I´M NOT SHAVING IT,
YOU KNOW.

SO DON´T.

IT´S UGLY, BUT IT´S ALSO
KIND OF DISTINGUISHED.

DISTINGUISHED?

WHY DO YOU SAY THAT?

I DON´T KNOW.
IT JUST IS.

YOU PLAY SO WELL.

I´D FORGOTTEN
HOW GOOD YOU ARE.

MOM USED TO SAY
I HAD YOUR HANDS.

AND THERE THEY SAT,
FATHER AND SON,

LIKE THEY WERE SITTING TOGETHER
FOR THE FIRST TIME.

NO, I WASN´T THERE

THE DAY DR. BROWN´S LIFE
CHANGED FOREVER,

BUT I WAS AROUND
FOR MANY DAYS THEREAFTER,

WHEN HE AND HIS FAMILY
WOULD CALL EVERWOOD THEIR HOME.
