IRV: The family doctor, an icon
of the American experience.

For generations,
they´ve mended our wounds

and warmed our hearts.

In my lifetime

Andy Brown was just about

the best example
I ever knew of one.

Doctor-wise, that is.

As for the family
half of the job title

he was a bit rough
around the edges.

Okey-dokey, here we go.

EPHRAM: What is that?
-I think it´s dinner.

I found Mom´s old recipe book.

And you cooked it?

No, smart-ass,
I cooked her meat loaf.

Now come on, eat up.

-We should say grace first.
-You´re both half-Jewish.

Isn´t a there half-Jewish grace?

ANDY: Quit stalling.

Look, tomorrow, we´ll try a
restaurant in town, okay?

If we´re not still
in the hospital.

I have my film
pick for the night.

Oh, Willy Wonka
and the Chocolate Factory.

Excellent choice, Delia.

-Don´t let her watch it.
-Be quiet.

Did I miss something?

She can´t watch that,
it upsets her.

It does not.

If you don´t count screams,
sleeping on my floor.

Delia, tell the truth.

It used to scare me,
but not anymore.

That´s what she says every time.
Like a junkie begging for smack.

I´m not a junkie,
you´re a junkie.

No one´s a junkie
in this house. Yet.

[PHONE RINGING]

Dr. Brown.

Yes, yes, I can.

No, we´re finishing dinner now.

I´ll be right over.
What´s your address?

Okay, then.
See you in a bit. Will do.

-Who was that?
-Only what I´ve been waiting

for since we moved here.
My first house call.

We´re just finishing
dinner, huh?

I can´t let my first house
call family feel bad, Ephram.

That wouldn´t be
very country-doctorly of me.

Besides, I won´t be long.

-Is a knapsack country-doctorly?
ANDY: Good point, Delia.

I need something
that says country doctor.

I know, an umbrella.

-That singing English nanny.
-Never mind.

I´ll see you guys later.

Remember, save me
a piece of meat loaf.

Without a doubt.

-I´ll order pizza.
-Half cheese, half pepperoni.

[DOOR CLOSES]

Mrs. Dudley, I presume?

Evening, doctor. I see you
found the place alright.

It took me longer
than I thought.

Just out of curiosity,
how long is Forest Lane?

Uh, fifteen miles.

Where I come from,
that´s a turnpike.

I was just about to put on some
coffee, if you´d like a cup.

No, thanks.

So which one´s the patient?

-You don´t charge, right?
-That´s right.

All of them.

We´ve to get on, we´ve so
much time and little to do.

Strike that, reverse it.
This way, please.

We´ll take the Wonkavator.

Hey, Dad.

Hey, kiddo.

-How was the movie?
-I tried not to watch it.

Honest, but it called out to me.

-That bad.
-I didn´t get scared.

I even watched the part where
the girl turns into a blueberry

which you and I both know
isn´t really possible.

Is it?

There was one reported case
in Norway in the late ´60s...

but I wouldn´t worry too much
about it. Go back to sleep.

[MUSIC PLAYING ON HEADPHONES]

I´m back.

Sound the trumpets.

-It took longer than expected.
-I hadn´t really noticed.

The door?

[CHUCKLES]

[SIGHS]

It´s called a vacation, Andy.
Are you gonna spend it cleaning?

I was just straightening up.

Admit it. The great
Dr. Brown can´t sit still.

What you need is a good book.

What, like Madame Bovary?
There´s some light summer fare.

How about your son?

That argument tonight
wasn´t my fault.

Did you hear
the way he talked to me?

He´s a teenager, sarcasm is how
they express their affection.

-Got a funny way of expressing.
-Oh, and your way isn´t?

You-- You take one week
of family vacation a year

and you spend it cleaning the
garage, the kitchen--

I asked him to go out in the
boat with me, he didn´t come.

Okay?

I was gonna teach him
how to drive it.

Teaching him something isn´t
the only way to get to know him.

I would´ve killed for my father
to teach me to drive a boat.

I would have killed
for us to have a boat.

I swear to God, one day you two
are gonna understand each other.

-It´s the last thing I ever do.
-Ha, ha.

Well, if that´s your goal,
you´re gonna be around a while.

[ANDY CHUCKLES]

-Hey, Nina.
-Evening, Andy.

Sometimes I remember
conversations with my wife.

And this one...?

A talk we had last year.

We had a house in the Hamptons.

She´d take
the kids for the summer.

Me, I was there a total
of three weeks in five years.

And yourself?

I assume you´re not out here
talking to a deceased spouse.

No, just enjoying
the warm night.

Unseasonably warm

considering we had
a snowstorm last week.

-Oh, it´s the fall thaw.
-Excuse me?

Welcome to one of Everwood´s
many oddities.

There´s a fall thaw?

With a legend behind
it, no less.

Once a year, we get a fall heat
wave that lasts around a week or

so and the town whips up a
festival to celebrate it.

Stop before
this gets any weirder.

Oh, you think that´s weird?

Last week, we got a doctor
who doesn´t charge anybody.

Good night, Andy.

Night, Nina.

IRV: The next day

as the temperature climbed,
so did the town´s excitement.

Looking around, it was almost
impossible to imagine anyone

not happy about the recent
turn in temperature.

Notice I said "almost."

You there. Yes, sign boy,
I´m talking to you.

If you´re gonna
hang that banner,

make sure that
it doesn´t chip the paint.

That is Benjamin Moore latex,

the Rolls-Royce of exterior
coatings.

[HARRY SNEEZES]

Morning, doctor. Happy thaw.

You´re an educated man,
you don´t plan on succumbing

to one of this community´s
more nonsensical traditions.

You´ve gotta admit, it´s
a balmy day for mid-September.

The weather pattern at this time

of year is
a typical Indian summer

brought about
by a flow of the jet stream

which, coupled with our
proximity to the mountains

traps and stagnates the hottest

pockets of air directly
above our region.

And as much as this town enjoys
celebrating this anomaly

for those who are
extra-sensitive

to the allergens in the air

this is not much of a fun week.

As opposed to
all those other weeks

where you just
like to party down.

As usual, you make
it difficult to have

a civil conversation
with you, doctor.

-Thaw well.
HARRY: Bite me.

-Morning, everyone.
ALL: Morning.

You´re late. This posse´s
getting hotter than--

Don´t finish that analogy, Edna,
I haven´t had my coffee yet.

-Late night?
-I answered my first house call.

Oh, you finally busted
the old cherry. Who with?

The Dudleys.

-On Forest Lane?
-That was no lane.

It took me half
an hour to find the place,

an hour and
a half to examine her kids.

I hope you got some rest

because we got
another packed house.

Oh, it never lets
up, Edna, does it?

Remind me and my tired feet

just why it is that
you are offering

this thankless
town free medicine?

Long answer is,
I spent enough years

making money off
of people´s sickness

and to assuage
my guilt, I wanted

to do something
incredibly altruistic.

The short answer is, I´m nuts.

-Okay, give it to me.
-Uh, excuse me?

You´ve been here a week. What
do you think of your classes?

I think they´re as annoying and
dull as my classes in New York.

Only further west.

I have to warn you,
there´s a movement

to issue
the new kid a nickname.

Why do I not like
the direction this is going?

It´s an offensive tactic.

The way I see it, as the new
kid, you´ll get a nickname.

These labels are never kind.
They´re either fun or mean.

-Most are mean.
-I know.

I have gym with Blackhead Davis.

See what I mean?

Now, if you and I leak
a few suggested nicknames

we´ll have a shot
at making a fun one stick.

For the classic girl next door,
you have a really warped mind.

Something in the water here.

-So, what´s yours?
-Me? They call me....

[SCHOOL BELL RINGS]

Late for class.

-See you, Bubba.
-Bubba?

Just testing one out.

Well, howdy, loser.

You guys choreographed
a bathroom

stall exit and I´m the loser?

I see you´re still getting
cozy with my little sis.

-I told you she´s spoken for.
-Spoken for?

Hey, Bright, the ´50s called,
they want their lingo back.

[BOYS CHUCKLE]

As soon as Colin
finds out about you,

he´s gonna kick your sorry ass.

I figure I might have
a slight advantage over him

you know,
seeing as I´m conscious.

Watch what you say, little man.

Another comment like that,

Colin´s not
the only one in a coma.

Statistically, I´m
not that little

but according to every chart,
you´re still a moron.

Oh, you may think I´m
a moron, you may be right.

But when it comes to
my sister Amy, I´m a genius.

And she´s playing you, dude.

Soon as she gets your
daddy fixing up Colin

she´s not even
going to look at you anymore.

Just remember I said that.

And that, children,
is how Ronald Reagan

saved the world
from the evil empire.

Yes, Delia, what is it now?

I can´t see the board as well
from here. Can I move up front?

-Something wrong with your eyes?
-No.

Then why do you
need to sit up front?

To hear you better.

Oh, you have
a hearing difficulty?

No.

I´m sorry, Delia,
I don´t understand.

I just like to sit close.

In this class, the boys
sit in the front rows

and the girls sit
in the other rows.

You mean the back rows.

MISS VIOLET:
Yes. Now, if everyone will

turn in their reading
books to page 86--

Do we ever switch?

Excuse me?

Do the boys
and girls ever switch?

Oh. No.

Then I´d like
to sit up front, please.

MISS VIOLET:
I see.

Well, to do that,
you´d have to be a boy.

You´re not suggesting that

you really are
a boy, Delia, are you?

[STUDENTS LAUGH]

I didn´t think so.

And while we´re at it,
remove your hat.

This is a classroom,
not a ball field.

[STUDENTS LAUGH]

I said, remove your hat.

Delia.

Delia.

IRV:
Welcome to Gino Chang´s

Everwood´s Friday-night
culinary hot spot.

Gino, the restaurant´s
proprietor and namesake

moved to town from Naples
a few years back.

At the time, Everwood was
without a Chinese restaurant

or an Italian one.

So Gino opened both.

Okay, we´ll have one order
of the minestrone soup

two orders of
the chicken parmesan,

one sweet-and-sour pork

and, uh, a couple
of egg rolls to start.

I´d like to take
a moment and point out

that this is hands down

the weirdest restaurant
we´ve ever been to.

We´re from New York City where
we´re served by drag queens.

I think it´s cool.

So who´s up for going
to the Thaw Fest tomorrow?

I´d love to, promise me to take
up surgery and lobotomize me.

Come on, it´ll be fun.

There´s gonna be hayrides
and a Ferris wheel.

In what universe do hayrides

and Ferris wheels
translate into fun?

Dad, what´s it mean when someone

takes extreme
disciplinary measures?

-Where´d hear that expression?
-On TV.

It means someone´s in trouble.

Signora, Dr. Abbott,
Everwood´s big-shot tough guy.

-How we doing tonight, huh?
-Just fine, Gino,

Our regular table, please.

Uh, I´m sorry, your table,
she no avail this evening.

What do you mean, she no avail?

GINO: No worry. I´m gonna give
you a bellissima table right--

Gino, I do not want
a bellissima table,

I want my regular table.

As a dedicated patron
of this establishment

I find it appalling you would
just jettison my table

without any regard whatsoever.

[GINO LAUGHS]

You smarty-pants, doc, I don´t
get your fancy words, huh?

But tonight, the dessert,
she´s on the house.

[GINO SPEAKS IN ITALIAN]

Hey, Ephram, how´s it going
with the Abbott girl?

-What brought that up?
-I´m just curious.

-Don´t be.
ANDY: It must be going well.

Because she´s walking over here.

Hey, Bubba.

-Uh, Dad, you remember Amy.
-Of course.

-Hello, Amy.
AMY: Hello, Dr. Brown.

My boyfriend Colin
is in a stage-4 coma

and I was wondering
if you´d consider

using your talents in
neurosurgery

to awaken him
from his head trauma

so that I can sleep with him?

I´d be glad to.

[GLASS BREAKS]

Uh, Dad, you remember Amy.

-Hey there, Amy.
-Hi.

-What´s your name?
-I´m Delia. You´re pretty.

[CELL PHONE RINGS]

Hello? Hello, this is he.

So you´re just
here with your dad?

-I´m sorry, I can´t hear you.
AMY: Yeah. How´d you know?

ANDY: Oh, hi.
-Uh, hard to miss.

Father-daughter night,
so we grab a bite

and go home and watch something
he´s taped off Turner Classics.

Oh. Sounds bitching.

It´s hard to believe,
but he can be kind of cool...

-...when no one´s looking.
HARRY: Amy.

Anyways, I´d better get back
before he combusts.

-Just wanted to say hi. See you.
-See you.

-Is she your girlfriend?
-No.

But you want her to be.

You´re this close to knowing
pain you´ve never known before.

That was my patient.

I´ve gotta get over
there, it´s an emergency.

We just ordered.

I should be back
by the time you finish, okay?

Look, I´ll tell you what.
Here´s some money for dinner.

You can use my phone to call a
cab. Can you do that, Ephram?

-Sure thing, pops.
-Look, I´m sorry, guys.

I´ll make it up
to you. I´ll promise

I won´t cook dinner
for a whole week.

EPHRAM:
Not working tonight?

It took me 20 minutes
just to track this number down.

Well, look at this.

Now what kind of a father

leaves his children
at a restaurant alone?

Stranded?

Uh, just trying to get a taxi.

Turns out there´s only one cabby

in town and he´s
taken the night off.

Mr. Randolph. Friday nights

he calls the bingo
numbers at the church.

This really is the town
that time forgot.

Well, we can give you
a ride home, right, Daddy?

Of course we can.

He sits up front with me.

[COUGHING]

Good boy.

It doesn´t make sense. Susie
was the one with the cough.

What appears to have been
a case of bronchitis

is actually bacterial
pneumococci.

Which is a silly way to say
infectious pneumonia,

which isn´t silly at all.

-He´s got pneumonia?
-He does.

Judging by the tightness
of the quarters,

all your kids are infected.

On the off-chance they´re not,
I´ve got vaccinations.

Unfortunately, I don´t have
any more antibiotics with me.

You can give Roger Susie´s
tonight.

I´m sorry, I can´t do that.

It´s perfectly
allowable, Mrs. Dudley.

I can write a prescription for
Roger and you can pick it up--

-I never got Susie´s medicine.
-I´m sorry?

Our truck´s been
out of commission.

I was gonna have my sister drive
me to the drugstore.

She doesn´t get back
till next Tuesday.

Your son doesn´t need
antibiotics on Tuesday,

he needs them now.

You said that
Susie´s cough was mild,

so I thought it could wait.

It can´t wait the night, not
unless you

wanna spend tomorrow
at the hospital.

[SIGHS]

Okay.

Get your kids ready, we´re gonna
go find the nearest pharmacy.

-I can´t let you do that.
-You have to.

-Why?
-Because your children are sick.

Because I should have diagnosed

their sickness
properly days ago.

Because I have
a car and you don´t.

But mostly because
I´m your doctor.

Now, come on.

DELIA:
Thanks for the ride, Dr. Abbott.

Um....

The festival is tomorrow, I
was wondering if you were going.

DELIA: Ephram.
-Just a second.

I´m thinking about going,

I hear they have hayrides
and Ferris wheels.

But did you know they have

a horseshoe-throwing
competition?

-Ephram.
-I said, just a second.

Little sisters, you know?

But yeah, no, I was thinking

about going to
the Festival of the Thaw.

That came out wrong.

-Two o´clock.
-Ephram.

[CAR HORN HONKS]

[CAR DOOR OPENS
THEN CLOSES]

-What?
-We´re locked out.

Over my dead and decaying corpse

you´re going to
Thaw Fest with that boy.

I am not going with him,
I am just meeting him there.

Since when do you care
who I go to Thaw Fest with?

Since you started asking future
parolees to attend with you.

You don´t know him.

This is so unfair.

In certain
parent-child conflicts,

fairness is irrelevant.

Why is it
the parent gets to decide

the relevancy of fairness?

An excellent question
if I do say so myself.

-Hello, dear.
-Mom, Dad is being excruciating.

"Excruciating" literally means
feel the pain of crucifixion.

While my law may
be difficult at times

I think we can both agree
that Jesus had it a bit tougher.

AMY:
He didn´t live here.

Well, now, where are you going?

We haven´t even
gotten to the movie

half of the evening
and it´s your favorite.

Repeat viewing of
The Red Shoes.

Oh, don´t look at me like that,
like you´re gonna overrule me.

I don´t have to. You´re
gonna rescind your own ruling.

Our daughter hasn´t had

a moment´s fun
since Colin´s accident.

If she wanted to go
with Eminem, I´d let her do it.

Rose, Rose,
do you know who this boy is?

He´s the son
of that faux Marcus Welby.

Oh, you´ll be interested to know

we had another five
cancellations today.

"Just feeling better,
Dr. Abbott," they all say.

Yeah, give me a break.

Like Marian Waddle´s biliary
cirrhosis just healed itself?

Come on. They´re all going

across the street
for some free medicine.

[HARRY SNEEZES]

And how can I compete with that?

We´ve had this conversation
umpteen times, Harold.

This isn´t about that doctor

or his son or even
about free medicine.

You know what this is about.

This is not about my mother.

I couldn´t care less
what that battle-ax does.

Her working there is just

one of her attempts
meant to embarrass me

and it´ll prove just as
ineffective as all the others.

Goodnight, Harold.

[SNIFFLES]

Delia Brown, what did I tell you
about hats in class, hmm?

-No hats in class.
-That´s right. No hats in class.

No hats in class.

Miss Violet,
you´re turning violet!

No hats in class!
No hats in class!

ALL:
No hats in class!

-No hats in class!
GIRL: She´s gonna explode!

Miss Violet´s gonna explode!

-She´s gonna explode!
-Delia, what´s wrong?

-Miss Violet´s gonna explode.
-Shh. Nobody´s gonna explode.

Where´s Dad? I want Dad.

He´ll be home soon.
Here, lie down.

Okay?

-Ephram?
-Yes.

Could you stay with me
for a little while?

Move over.

[EPHRAM SIGHS]

[ANDY SIGHS]

Where´ve you been?

I was stuck at the Dudleys.

-What´s the matter, okay?
-No.

Everything´s not okay,
your daughter had a nightmare.

-How is she?
-She´s fine now.

Got her back to sleep
about 30 minutes ago.

It was that movie, wasn´t it?

I should´ve made
sure she didn´t see it.

For someone who was cited as one
of the greatest minds in America

it amazes me sometimes
how clueless you are.

You really think
this was about a movie?

Why don´t you enlighten me
as to what it is about

because that´s just what I need,

a lecture from
my 15-year-old son.

Do not talk to me
the way you used to talk to Mom.

-What is that supposed to mean?

I wanna be having
this conversation?

I didn´t marry you, never
agreed to pick up your slack.

Look, Ephram, I am sorry

I couldn´t take
care of Delia tonight.

But I was treating a 7-year-old
boy who could hardly breathe.

Seven-year-old boys
who can´t breathe

trump little girls with
nightmares.

-In my profession they do.
-In the medical profession?

-Or in the crappy father one?
-Alright, that is enough.

You and that mouth
of yours are gonna

start showing me
some respect or--

Or what?

What happened to your hand?

It´s tonight´s punch line.

I sliced it while trying
to pry open a window

after Delia and I
couldn´t get a ride home

after you left us at dinner
for the second night this week.

-Let me take look at it.
-It´s fine.

-Let me just see it.
-Don´t touch me!

The great Dr. Brown.

That´s what Mom
and I used to call you.

You always thought it was
endearing but it wasn´t.

It was our own private joke.

Will the great Dr. Brown
be here for dinner?

Will the great Dr. Brown
be joining us?

Don´t you see? You´re still that
guy. You´ll always be that guy.

It doesn´t matter if it´s the
Dudleys or some rich lady

on Park Avenue
they´ll always come first.

Only difference is this time
Mom´s not here to cover for you.

At least I got her.

Who does Delia get?

[CROWD CHATTERING]

Now, what did we
talk about in the car?

For the next three hours,
I don´t know you.

-Doc-a-doodle-do.
-Hey, Edna.

-You remember Irv?
-Good to see you.

Hello, doctor.
Hello there, Delia.

-Hey, Mr. Irv.
-Doc Brown, Doc Brown.

Thurman Revere
from Glen Oaks Drive.

Hi, Thurman.

Listen, I have a cyst
just above my backside.

Actually, I´m here with my
family and I´d prefer--

-A look-see, it´d take a second.
-You know, I--

Go ahead, doc, we´ll
watch the munchkin for a bit.

Well, alright.
No, no, not here, Thurman.

-Hey.
-Hey, there you are.

Ephram Brown, the melting man.
The melting man, Ephram Brown.

-He´s oddly quiet.
-He´s not having the best day.

-I think it might be his last.
-Everyone just watches him melt?

It´s a contest. You bet when
the hat´s gonna hit the ground.

Mr. Lawrence
has won three years in a row.

Well, I think it´s safe to say
we have a few hours yet.

Here´s the deal.

My dad agreed that I could hang
with you under one condition.

Yeah? What´s that?

How goes it, Bonelick?

He has to hang with us.

No offense, Amy, but, uh,

he´s my least favorite
thing about you.

Yeah, well, you´re really my
least favorite thing about you.

Dude, you´ve really
gotta work on the insults.

So, what are we gonna do first?

We´ve got face-painting
over there.

Let´s try the silent
auction over here.

[CROWD GASPS]

Vanilla and chocolate
frozen yogurt in a cup

with a spoon of sprinkles
distributed evenly over the top.

Rinse that spoon
if it´s been in the nut dish.

Buddy, how about you finish
ordering before the thaw´s gone?

-Hello, Mother.
-How´s it hanging, Junior?

With the plethora
of greetings in English

I find it hard
to believe that´s the best.

I find it hard to believe
you used "plethora."

Two scoops of chocolate
on a cone, please.

You´ve got your
panties in a bunch

we´re gonna steal your patients.

There´s enough hoity-toities
around these parts

who don´t wanna wait all day

with folks from the wrong
side of the mountain.

I do not have
my panties in a bunch.

-I´m concerned for you.
-Concerned?

You´re working with
a severely addled human being.

You´ve got a few
bouts with reality,

I don´t much
recommend the exposure.

What are these bouts?

The time you decided to
leap your motorbike

over four cars down Main Street?

That was a fundraiser for
Myrna´s goiter operation.

How about this drunken bar brawl
last month with Edgar Cage?

Edgar had it coming,
he called me a puss.

Your sophomoric stunts
aside, the truth is

you´ve given
no thought that you may

be driving yourself
into an early grave.

You´d like that too,
wouldn´t you?

Then you could say,
"I told you so."

You´re presuming
I´d attend your funeral.

You know what
your trouble is, Junior?

Your whole life,
you´ve wanted this town

to see you the same way
they saw your pops.

Wise, generous, big-hearted.

Trouble is, people can´t
see what´s not there.

As usual, I´m bathed in your
maternal warmth and kindness.

AMY:
Oh, my God.

[EPHRAM CHUCKLES]

I´m surprised Bright didn´t
shove himself up here with us.

I knew he wouldn´t
go near this thing,

he´s definitely
afraid of heights.

So, what do people do up here,

besides wait for
an early demise?

And ask really dumb questions.

Actually, I brought you up here

to tell you something
very important.

Grover.

Grover.

It´s my nickname.

I always loved Grover as a kid.

I know for most kids it´s all
Winnie the Pooh or Hello Kitty

or occasionally
Strawberry Shortcake.

But for me, life was about a
little blue Muppet named Grover.

Well, Grover was
a very underrated Muppet.

Colin and Bright
used to torment me

by stealing my Grover
doll and hiding him.

Then one day,
Colin refused to give me

the doll back unless I kissed
him first.

Colin, that is, not Grover, who
I had kissed many, many times.

So I closed my eyes,
Colin closed his

we both leaned forward and I
kicked him right in the nuts.

Colin, that is, not Grover,
who didn´t have nuts.

At least none
that I was aware of.

Anyway, Colin screamed
and doubled over.

My parents raced into the room

and when they asked
what happened

Colin wouldn´t tell them.

All he would say
was that Grover did it.

And somehow, suddenly
I had developed my first crush.

On Colin, that is.

Not Grover.

I know we haven´t talked about
this since that trip to Denver

so--

You want me to ask
my dad to help Colin.

If you could just talk to him.

I mean, I know there´s probably
nothing he can do but--

Yeah. Sure, Amy.

I´ll ask him. No problem.

Thank you.

Yoo-hoo! Dr. Brown,
care to try for a wish?

-Anything for my patient.
BRENDA: Oh. Such a doll, doctor.

All you do is
drop a quarter in the tank.

If it lands in those glasses,
then you get your wish.

It costs 50 cents, not counting
the 25 cents in the tank,

of course and the money goes to
benefit the girls´ dance troupe.

The Everwood Swans. We have
a recital coming up this fall.

-You know what´s funny?
-Hmm?

I didn´t get the coin in the
glass, but I still got my wish.

You´re lucky that way.

Aren´t you gonna
tell me why I´m here?

I wanted to see you.

Know that you´re more
than just a memory.

And tell you that
I kept my promise.

You didn´t keep yours.

You promised you´d be here.

In Everwood.

But you´re not.

I´ve got some bad news for you,
you´re gonna be fine.

Fine is not great.

You´ve had enough of great.

It isn´t all that
it´s cracked up to be.

Fine is real.

Now, come on. Say it.

Say what?

Goodbye.

That´s why you wanted
to see me, isn´t it?

You wanted to say goodbye.

No.

No, not to you. Just to--

To this.

I understand.

You do?

Besides, I was never the reason.

-I don´t get it.
-He was, Andy.

You came here
so you could know him.

Know who?

[BALLOON POPS]

Let´s go home, Dad.

[ANDY SIGHS]

So, what did everyone
think of the festival?

[ALL CHUCKLE]

-That´s not funny.
-It´s a little funny.

[ALL CHUCKLE]

[ALL LAUGHING]

-What´s this?
DELIA: It´s a note from school.

I´m in big trouble.

[ALL LAUGHING]

DELIA:
See you inside.

She´s crafty, that one.

[ANDY & EPHRAM CHUCKLE]

[ANDY SIGHS]

EPHRAM:
I see her too, sometimes.

Mom. I mean, not like you do.
I don´t talk to her

or anything.

More like, I feel her.

With us.

When we´re all having dinner

or when there´s a song playing
on the radio she used to like.

I just know she´s there.

Ephram, I wish I could tell you
everything´s gonna be okay.

I know that´s what I´m supposed
to say, but the truth is

I don´t know
what´s gonna happen to us.

What I do know is that all
we have now is each other.

I need your help
raising your sister.

I can´t do it alone.

She gets us.

HARRY: Morning, doctor.
-Good morning.

What´s the matter?

Didn´t have time for your usual
bowl of sarcasm this morning?

Actually, I wanted
to say thank you.

For giving my son and daughter

a ride home.
It was very kind of you.

You´re welcome.

Since you seem hell-bent on
becoming a permanent fixture

I should give you
a piece of advice.

And that is?

When I first joined
my father´s practice,

I too went out of my way

to be available
to all people at all times.

I realized that exhausting
myself was no good for anyone

least of all for my family,
who needed me the most.

Being a small-town physician

is a marathon,
doctor, not a sprint.

And if one of us
is going to win this race

you are going
to have to stay in it.

And behold the people

who had every
attribute of dogs

except loyalty.

Come on, everyone, inside.

WOMAN 1: Thank you, doctor.
-Welcome back.

WOMAN 2: Thank you.
-All is forgiven.

You hear that?

That was the sound
of a pin dropping.

After what happened yesterday,

I´m surprised you´re
still here, Edna.

You´re paying me.

We´re in this foxhole
together, compadre.

Don´t worry about everyone else.

They´ll come around,
they always do.

That´s sort of
the nature of this place.

You´re up one day,
down the next.

In the meantime, we have
some excellent periodicals.

[DOOR OPENS]

Good morning, doctor.

Mrs. Dudley, what a nice
surprise. How are you?

-Just fine, thank you.
-Ah.

I wanted to stop by
and take the opportunity

to say thank you
for the other night.

Well, that´s quite
a long way just to--

How did you get here?

MRS. DUDLEY: I heard about
what happened yesterday.

And I wanted to tell you
that my family--

Like a lot of other families
around here, we don´t have much.

But now we have a doctor.

Uh, I know it was a tragedy
that brought you here, sir.

For that I am sorry.

But I´m not sorry that you came.

Neither am I, Mrs. Dudley.

You take care now.

Well, at least offer
her a ride home.

ANDY:
Mrs. Dudley?

-How´s it going there, Ham?
-Ham.

-It´s your nickname, welcome.
-My nickname´s a deli item.

See, that´s what
everyone will think,

but we´ll know
it´s really short for this.

See? You look just like Hamlet.

-That does not look like me.
-No, you can´t deny it.

Everwood finally
has its own dark prince.

You wanna grab some lunch?

Um, before we get lunch,
we should talk.

You asked your
father, didn´t you?

He said no.

I mean, you can´t really
begrudge the guy.

He´s trying to get out of brain
business, start a new life.

I don´t know what
I was thinking.

Sorry, it was silly
for me to ask.

I´m sorry, Amy.

You still wanna get lunch?

I think I´m gonna
hang back here a while

and look over some
notes before class.

Your daughter has a mind
of her own, Dr. Brown.

She repeatedly
interrupts my lessons

with questions
that make little sense.

This in addition
to her inappropriate apparel.

ANDY [WHISPERING]: I´ve never
been to a parent-teacher thingy.

-Am I allowed to speak?
-You have to raise your hand.

Excuse me, Dr. Brown.

Just out of curiosity,
Miss Violet,

why do the boys
sit in the front?

[SCOFFS]

Very simple. Boys are rowdier.

-Rowdier?
-They cause more of a fuss.

By sitting in the front,

I can monitor their
behavior more closely.

You believe girls are
genetically less rowdy,

you relegate them to the back?

-The term "relegate" is--
ANDY: Entirely appropriate.

As for Delia having
a mind of her own,

whose is she supposed to have?

I think you
misunderstood my point.

No, I don´t think that I did.

Delia, perhaps you should step

outside while
your father and I--

No, she got to be
here for the bad part.

I want her to hear
what I´m about to say.

My daughter´s been
through a traumatic year

and she´s come through
the other side remarkably well.

I´d like to take more
credit for that, but I can´t.

She´s the product of a mother
who taught her strength

courage and independence
from an early age.

My job is to make sure she
doesn´t forget those lessons.

Now she will sit
wherever you tell her to sit.

But as long as she´s polite,

she can ask all
the questions she wants.

And I´d get used
to those baseball caps.

As for you and me?
You can keep calling me in here.

But next time,
my daughter better

have really done
something wrong

or you are gonna have
one rowdy father on your hands.

This meeting is over, doctor.

Yes, it certainly is.

Come on, Delia.

See you tomorrow, Miss Violet.

[SIGHS]

Where have you two been?

You wanna tell him, or should I?

We went horse shopping.

There´s a ranch just off the
highway that breeds horses.

Dad took me there.
We just looked, though.

-Making good on that bribe, huh?
-You cooked dinner?

I figured we should
have meat loaf for a change.

How´s the hand doing?

I´ll tell you what.

I´ll stay away from
recipes involving three

or more ingredient, you stay
away from the first-aid kit.

Heh. It´s a deal. Now go on,
sit down. Dinner´s ready.

IRV: The first fall thaw that
Andy Brown and his children

ever knew passed through
Everwood later that night

taking with it our last
bit of warm autumn air.

But not our warmth of spirit.

That was in
the people of Everwood

and in our hearts

some broken, some mending

and some for
the moment, complete.
