Yes, and I'm sorry about that,

but now that Princess Bella
is out of the vet,

can you please send off those
makeup tutorials for edit?

Uh, let me call you back.

There's a stranger
in my gran's living room.

[clears throat]

Excuse me, ma'am.

I think
you're in the wrong house.

Au contraire, my darling.

-[Chelsea gasps]
-[laughs]

Well, what's the verdict?

Guilty as sin
for looking absolutely fierce.

Better than Rihanna
in her pixie era.

Great minds think alike.

What?

Oh, Chelsea. No, baby. No.

I'm-I'm sorry, Gran.
It's just...

Your beautiful hair.

We are not having
any big emotions today.

Now, besides,

I am thrilled
with my new makeover.

It was time to shake things up.

[Anita laughs]

Are we still on
for our romantic evening?

I was thinking about takeout

from that Thai place
in Woodley Park.

And that date-night vibes
playlist that you made

that you swear doesn't exist?

I don't know anything
you're talking about.

Sure. Well, I am excited
to see you,

and I'm sorry I had to bail on
your family's volunteer thing.

Don't sweat it. We'll survive.

I will just be posted up here
at Uptown working on my story.

And I'm still wondering
when you're gonna

stop being mysterious

and let your husband know
what it's about.

When I'm ready.

Unless you want
to spill some juicy

state secrets to me
so we're even.

Oh, that's Naomi.

-Come in.
-Give her my best.

-And I love you.
-Me, too.

And I can't wait to tell you
and show you how much tonight.

I brought snacks.

-Oh, thanks for the goodies.
-Of course.

I can't believe I haven't
seen you since learning

that both of my cousins
are healthy and variant-free.

Mm. We all have so much
to be grateful for.

Can I get you some water, tea?

Uh, maybe something
with a little more bite?

Oh, we're actually addressing
campaign postcards by hand.

Don't you have a staff that...?

You know what? Never mind.

I'm here and fully committed.

So, yes, one while we work
would be great.

Coming right up.

So, where are
my favorite teenagers?

Samantha and Tyrell
are at the mall.

And Smitty is working on a story

that could change everything,
apparently.

Hmm.

Max, what the hell?

I thought
we agreed to meet later.

Don't ask me now, but I can't
be your source anymore.

I'm out.

♪ ♪

Baby, you are two taps away
from giving me a migraine,

on top of whatever
mystery condition I might have.

I don't understand how
you can be so casual about this.

I'm not, but if I learned
one thing from Dani...

...from my daughter's
recent ordeal, is that

playing out worst-case scenarios
regarding health matters

and medical stuff, it just...
it just adds stress.

Why don't you go put some miles
on your credit card?

You know, maybe go
to the club spa?

I don't want to go to...

-Hey.
-Happy birthday, Caroline.

Birthday woman in the house.

Oh, you're both too kind.

Uh, I hate to interrupt,

but we need to review your
schedule if this is a good time.

Yeah, it is.
Hay was just leaving.

[scoffs]

[clears throat]

You couldn't usher her out
fast enough.

Something or...
someone else on your mind?

He and I have taken
a couple trips down memory lane

-over the past few weeks.
-Hmm.

Could have left him
a little sentimental.

And life's so complicated.

Cancer.

Possible cancer, it...

It's easy to get...

caught up...

in nostalgia.

Caught up how?

I kissed Bill.

Hmm.

That kiss must have really
done something to him, though,

because the guy is ready
to send Hayley packing.

What did it mean to you?

It was a goodbye.

To Bill?

Or to me?

-That kiss was closure.
-Hmm.

To Bill.

To that life.

To everything we had before.

But the way he looks at you
says something different.

Memories like those
are like mythical sirens.

They lure you in.

And it's so easy to get swept up
in the laughter and the warmth

and what-what feels
like renewed love

until you realize
you're actually drowning,

and all the memories
from the rest of that life

come flashing before your eyes.

All of the...

"Please don't leave me alone
in this bed,"

and, "I will never let someone
treat me like that again."

And the way my heart broke
over and over and over.

Dani...

You know, the first time
Bill cheated, I was devastated.

The second? Furious.

I was ready to take my girls
and leave his ass

until he broke it off
with whatever paralegal

he's playing
hide-the-brief with.

-But he didn't stop.
-Oh.

He'd pull it together
for a minute.

But then soon enough,

he was back to his... ways.

It was an endless cycle.

Different women, same excuses.

It didn't take long to realize
I was fighting a losing battle.

But you stayed.

You pretended
that it wasn't happening.

And I lost a little more
of my self-respect each time.

It was soul-crushing.

[softly]:
Come here.

You might be another year older,
but not any wiser.

The only thing on my mind
right now is my schedule.

Mm-hmm.
So how'd the doctor's visit go?

Oh, they're still unclear
about what might be causing

these strange test results.

You know, a lab tech
is going to do

scheduled blood tests
for 24 hours,

and they have me
on some elimination diet.

But Hayley's herbal tea
was the first to go.

Thank God.
Anyway, before we get started,

I...

...got something for you.

Uh, the party you and Hayley are
throwing for me is gift enough.

No. No, Caroline,
you've been a friend

and a confidante
for over ten years now.

You see me at my worst,
you've covered for my mistakes,

and that doesn't go unnoticed,
okay?

Now, stop arguing with me
and open that damn box.

Okay.

You bought me a Mercedes?

Mm-hmm. Had it delivered to
the parking garage this morning.

-This is too much.
-No, I beg to differ.

Loyalty and discretion
should always be rewarded.

MARTIN:
You've been to see Gran lately?

Yeah, on my way
to the office the other day.

Why? Did something happen?

Other than
her kicking Granddad out?

Kicked out, kicked out?

It was only for a few hours,

but he was being
a little too attentive.

Hmm. More than usual?

Enough to annoy
the hell out of Gran.

-But he had good reason.
-Mm.

He was worried
after she collapsed.

I'm sorry. Collapsed?

Martin, why am I just now
hearing about this?

She wanted
to keep it on the low.

She was dehydrated after chemo
and passed out at home.

Granddad called my dad,

and Dad came over
to hook her up to an I.V.

She's fine now.

My God, I can't imagine
how terrifying

that must have been
for both of them.

When you've loved someone
for that long,

the idea of life without them
is... unthinkable.

And when their work
could put them in danger...

You can't help but to worry.

SMITTY:
Drink this.

I'm gonna need something
stronger than that, man.

You want a-a beer?

No, try shots.

All right, multiple.

Enough to forget what I saw.

Okay, uh, talk to me.

-What happened?
-All right.

The boss, you know, called in
all the couriers for a meeting.

You know, he said
he wanted to clear the air.

Well, that doesn't sound good.

Well, he was pacing
like a caged animal.

You know,
talking about trust and loyalty.

And then he shouts,
"One of you's a snitch."

What happened next?

Max, what happened next?

Well, that's when Cal went down.

Without warning.
Just, boom, you know?

Just beat him down
right in front of us.

The-the-the screaming,
the-the blood.

It was just... Oh, God.

Is... is he still alive?

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

One of the guys,
they took his body.

Just dumped it
right in front of the ER.

They didn't even stick around
to see if he made it.

That is so messed up.

Well, what about...
what about you?

Are you... are you okay?

What do you think?

I'm the leak, Smitty.

I-I'm the one
feeding you information.

Look...

I-I can't...
I can't do this anymore, okay?

I got to get out.

[laughing]

Wait. Hang on, hang on, hang on.

Dani really said
you could be a model?

Okay, brother, you're laughing
a little too hard now.

-Is it that out of pocket?
-Hey, maybe not.

You definitely could be a, uh--
let me look at you--

a "before" model.

[laughing]:
Oh. Jacob's a comedian now.

Not funny.

Maybe a little funny.

Hey, for real, though, could you
imagine Pop's reaction?

Man, that disappointed look
would be all over his face.

Is he still pressing you?

His golden boy
who's been walking on water

since he was in diapers?

Well, I couldn't bust
an international crime syndicate

after my first night undercover.

Shame on me, right?

So the case isn't going
how you planned?

Well, don't sound so relieved.

I know you and Naomi
were concerned.

But the truth is, it's not even
much to worry about.

This whole investigation
might not even

turn out the way I want it to.

Would that be so terrible?

When Pops is looking for
any excuse to park me at a desk?

Hell yeah.

I need this assignment
to come together tight.

No loose ends.

SMITTY:
Max. Max, just breathe, okay?

Look, I know what happened
with that courier rattled you,

but you cannot disappear now.

You didn't see what I saw, okay?

You-you weren't there.

These guys,
they're-they're monsters.

Which is exactly why
you can't leave.

Oh, God.

Max, look, okay?
I've been doing some digging.

This kid...

This kid is eight years old.

Eight, Max.

He has a rare blood condition.

He sees a specialist. He needs
a transfusion once a week.

Last month, his treatments
were pushed three times

because of supply chain issues.

Jesus.

You think what happened
with that courier was brutal?

There are kids, elderly people,

accident victims
all over the DMV

that are not gonna get
the plasma they need

because your guys
are stealing it, okay?

Making possibly millions
for whoever's at the top.

I-I can't think about that
right now.

Max, it's why you came to me
in the first place.

Your gut is telling you
that this is wrong.

Think of how many lives
you are going to save

when this story breaks.

And what if I end up
in a body bag like Cal?

-Hmm?
-You said he wasn't dead.

No, I-I said I didn't know.

Look, regardless,

they're gonna figure out
who pointed that flashlight.

Then you can't leave.

If you bail,

if, out of everyone
that either witnessed

or heard about what happened,
if you are the one to walk away,

they will definitely know
it was you.

I can't stay.

I...

Damn. I don't know what to do.

Granddad is trying to be strong,

but this cancer thing
is chipping away at him.

Mm. You know, in some ways,

it's harder
to be the support person.

You know, standing there
beside your loved one,

desperately wanting to help,

but there's actually nothing
you can do.

And sometimes the caregiver
has best intentions,

but their approach doesn't align
with what the patient needs.

What do you mean?

Well, take Jacob, for instance.

That husband of mine has
a protective streak a mile wide.

But sometimes that protection
can... feel like a prison.

I get that.

Smitty and I have been there,

and I've definitely needed room
to breathe.

Yeah. Love makes people want
to fix things.

But when you are fighting
for your life,

you don't want a handyman
watching your every move.

So you don't blame Gran
for kicking Granddad out?

Well, sometimes you need
to protect the people you love

from their own need
to protect you.

Even if that means
carrying the weight alone.

Well, it went a lot better
than the first time

I had to change my hair

due to circumstances
beyond my control.

Oh, do tell.

Well, it was one
of the first showcases

the Articulettes played,

and we wanted our hair
to be "laid to the gawds."

So, I had the bright idea

to heat up the hot comb on the
radiator in our dressing room.

-Oh, Gran, no.
-[laughing]: Yep.

That comb burned off a chunk
of my hair.

I looked like I had lost
a fight with a light socket.

Well, did you cancel the show?

No, no.

Myron saved my behind
that night.

Myron? I've never
heard of that wig line.

Myron was the headliner.

To cover the damage,

I walked out onstage
in one of his toupees,

fastened by Sharon and Tracy
with a big bow plopped on top.

Now, he was none too thrilled
that we had

"borrowed" one of his pieces,
but hey, honey,

-the show must go on.
-Mm-hmm.

Okay, wait. But you were
out here serving looks

in a man's hairpiece?

I sure was.

Every woman in this family
is gifted

with beauty, intellect

and talent.

I count my blessings daily

that I can just be in the
presence of all this greatness.

Well, you set the example,

teaching us to chase our dreams.

Uh, and about that:

I... found another dream
to chase.

But Kat doesn't really approve.

Oh.

Are you having a difference
of opinion on the purse line?

Not really. Um...

Kat is freaking out because...

I want to get a place
with Madison.

And what's wrong with that?

In Copenhagen.

I appreciate you
keeping it real with me.

And I want you to know
that Bill is a damn fool.

The man had a woman
who was brilliant,

bold, who's loyal to a fault,
and he fumbled it.

And now he has Hayley.
Lucky him.

Hey, I don't give a damn
how much regret the guy has.

All that matters to me is
that we're building a life,

you and me.

And I have no intention

of letting anybody
get in between that,

even if I have to fight for you.

Relax, Tarzan.

While your chest-thumping
is cute,

it's unnecessary.

I'm not going anywhere.

Are you sure about that?

Yes.

But that kiss.

-That kiss to Bill was...
-Was nothing...

compared to this.

Baby, I will tell Bill

that we don't talk
unless it's about the girls.

It's time for me to put
those memories in the past.

And to walk into the future...

with you.

That's a lackadaisical approach
to a workday.

I've earned it.

You know,
I cleared my entire schedule.

I even gave Caroline the rest
of the night off.

Yeah, I ran into her and her
new Benz in the parking deck.

Had to pull teeth
to get her to admit

that it was a birthday gift
from you.

Just like the old days.

Caroline never iced you out,
Dani.

That's just her work persona.
She's always liked you.

[laughs] Correction:
Caroline was friendly to me

because I was your wife,

just like she's friendly
to your current wife.

She was Hayley's maid of honor.

Because no one else
wanted the job.

And it scored her points
with her boss.

Come on, Bill.

The only person Caroline has
ever been loyal to is you.

And judging from that
very expensive gift out there,

it is crystal clear why.

Her old car was on its last leg,

and business has been very good,
in large part because of her.

I have always admired
Caroline's ability

to juggle your busy schedule.

Ah. Finally, some recognition.

She was especially adept
at making sure

I never crossed paths
with any of your side pieces.

Look who's come out of hiding.

And here I thought
you were avoiding me.

I'd have to think about you
to do that.

[laughs] You are so funny.

You know,
the last time I saw you,

you were bolting out
of that snobby soiree

at the club
with Ted's love child.

What's her name again?

My girlfriend's name is Eva.

Right. Right.

The one who wrecked the
Richardsons' anniversary party.

You did hear about that?

I don't base my opinion
on gossip.

If I did, I wouldn't be here
humoring you, would I?

Hmm.

Is Eva here with you?

No. That's my brother's.

Yeah, he should be back soon.

Oh.

Have you seen
the WinterFest pics yet?

Oh, let me show you.

Ah. They posted them
on the club's IG.

Oh. Mm.

The camera loves you.

Right?

And they're on the WinterFest
hashtags, too.

Oops.

[laughing]:
Oh.

Um, that was,

you know, for Bill's eyes only.

-Right.
-Hayley, how's it going?

Hey, your brother and I were
just getting reacquainted.

How's Naomi?

I know that whole gene-testing
thing was stressful.

She's doing great.
Thanks for asking.

Look, bro, I got to bounce.

It's a work thing
that can't wait.

-Handle your business.
-Cool.

I'll keep your baby brother
entertained.

Now, where were we?

Girl, I cannot thank you enough
for jumping in on that drive-by.

Look, I know
it's happened before,

but every time it does,
I cannot wrap my head around it.

I mean,
who drops an injured person

outside of
the emergency room door

and they don't even bother
to alert anybody?

Well, in my experience,

it's because something shady
has gone down.

Well, the guy was beat up
pretty badly.

But at least his injuries
weren't life-threatening.

The patient should be
discharged tonight,

assuming his vitals
remain stable.

Oh, God.

I saw in the notes
that Bill Hamilton came in.

Oh, you know something.

Let's see what you know first.

Word is he declined in-patient
observation. That true?

Not sure.

I do know that he was assigned
to Dr. Martinez.

Oh, right.

Because Madison is leaving
for Copenhagen.

-Mm.
-Oh, I cannot imagine moving

to a whole nother country
on such short notice.

The packing, the paperwork,
the-the language apps.

The girlfriend?

I mean, are she and Chelsea
gonna do long-distance?

'Cause that is...
really long-distance.

-Oh, you haven't heard?
-Mm.

Gran, will you
please say something?

You're too quiet,
and it's making me anxious.

Well, Copenhagen. I...

Well, I mean, it's-it's...

This is new information.

I know it seems unhinged,

but Madison got accepted
into a fellowship,

and she asked me
to move with her.

We'll be gone for a year.

A whole year?

I know it's big,

but what I have with Madison
is the realest thing

I've ever felt.

And Kat thinks I'm foolishly
flipping my life upside down.

And she even accused me
of being selfish,

given the timing of... things.

No. No, no,
you stop right there.

I don't want you or Kat
or anyone else in this family

to put their lives on pause
because I'm battling cancer.

I don't want to be a reason
to stop living.

In fact, I-I want to be a reason
to live more fully.

Thanks, Gran. I knew...
I knew you would get it.

But I do agree with Kat
on one point.

What's that?

Love shouldn't require change.

Real love, lasting love,

should meet you where you are.

Given all that's going on,

with Anita and everything,
I'm just...

I'm surprised that Chelsea
doesn't want to stay

closer to home.

At least
for the next few months.

True.

Those Duprees tend to be
tighter than bark on a tree,

and I saw it firsthand when
I was Bill's physical therapist.

And even more so when it's
one of their own that's down.

[sighs] And now with Bill's
health acting up

and all the other health issues
they have going on, I just...

It seems like a lot
for Chelsea to walk away from.

Smitty. You sounded rattled
on the phone.

-What's up?
-Max.

He told me he wants
to walk away.

-Are you serious?
-Yeah. He's freaking out.

He saw another courier
get beat down by his boss.

Max is supposed to vouch for me.

He's the only reason
they're giving me a shot.

If he's out,
that means I lose my in.

And I lose my source.

We would both
have to start over.

Nah, man,
I don't have time for that.

My dad's already
breathing down my neck.

Tell me you got him
to change his mind.

Well, apologies for being late.

Oh, we're actually
stuffing envelopes.

You read the text, right?

Well, I thought it was code
for wine and gossip.

Here, this should help
with the reality check.

And you're not
the last to arrive.

-Kat's still M.I.A.
-I wouldn't count on it.

She's in one of her moods.

Mm, and water's wet.
Here you go.

Well, before I paper-cut myself
into a coma,

have either of you seen
Gran's new look?

New look?

Well, when did this happen?

When her hair
started falling out.

She decided to take matters
into her own hands

and cut it really short.

Well, Mom cut it for her.

She's been dealing with so much.

I didn't know
she was dealing with this

on top of passing out.

She didn't tell me that.

She didn't want
to alarm everyone.

Typical Gran, looking out for us

even though she's the one
fighting for her life.

[sighs]

I'm texting Kat.
She needs to hear this.

Well, don't be surprised
if she doesn't come.

She's furious at me for...

...for deciding to move
to Denmark with Madison.

Did you just say Denmark?

Is that why Kat's upset?

Are you shutting down
ChelseaKat?

Of course not.
I will be working remotely,

but that is why she's upset.

I'm still trying to process
this whole

"moving across the world" thing.

Madison has
an incredible opportunity

that she just can't pass up,

and I don't think
I can be without her.

So, if you're gonna
yell at me, too, then...

Well, I think this sounds like
an incredible adventure.

So, you're okay with it?

Well, it depends.

Did you want me
to try to talk you out of it?

Chels?

Uh, where you going?

I know I just got here,
but there's somewhere else

that I need to be.

I'm sorry, Martin.

[door opens and closes]

BILL:
Let me guess.

You're here for another review
of my greatest hits.

"Remember when I was
a terrible husband?"

Well, that is
one of my favorites.

I was hoping we could skip
the retrospective tonight.

Well, I'm not in the mood

for another
Hayley-bashing session, either.

That's surprising,

given your recent
buyer's remorse.

Vernon told you?

He told my husband,

-who told me.
-Mm.

Yeah, well,
that explains everything.

You know, your father was
never one of my biggest fans.

It makes sense that he'd go
to Andre and warn him about me.

That's where you're wrong.

You became more than
just a son-in-law to my daddy.

You were the son he never had.

Until you disappointed him

by disappointing me.

I laid it all out for him.

The facts, the consequences,

the people getting hurt
while these bastards

play their shell game
with plasma.

Well, did it work?

I think so.

At least enough
to get Max to agree

to pitch you to replace the
courier that they, you know...

-Retired.
-Yeah.

And since you've
already met the boss...

Yeah, well, the clock's ticking.

How long until we find out
about the courier thing?

Max said that he would
text you on your burner,

so who knows,
it could be tonight.

Or it could be never.

NAOMI:
How's Smitty doing
with that story?

You mentioned
it was something big.

I would love to tell you,
but I know next to nothing.

He says it's gonna
be big, though.

Maybe even awards worthy.

-Ooh.
-Problem is,

the bigger the story,
usually the more dangerous.

How's Jacob and the new case?

Wouldn't know.
He can't say much, either,

just that it's
an important assignment

and he's determined
to prove himself.

I can't say this to Smitty,
but I can't stand

when he chases
these investigative pieces.

I know it's selfish, but I wish
he would just stick to...

human interest
and local politics.

Safe stuff.

You know what I hate?

This whole charade.

Come again?

Martin, you have a staff.

Paid professionals
whose entire job

is to make you look good
and to handle tedious tasks.

Personal touches matter
in politics,

and voters can smell a fraud
a mile away.

Just like I'm smelling
right now?

You could always see
right through me.

-[chuckles]
-Even when we were kids.

[sighs] With everything
spiraling lately,

I just needed an excuse
to see my people.

Martin, you don't need
to pull a stunt to get us close.

We are family. We show up.

It's what we do.

So, consider this charade
officially over,

and let me tell you what
we're gonna do instead.

Hey, I can't believe
we haven't hung out

since you've been back.

I know. I saw you at Uptown
the other day, but...

CHELSEA:
Ships passing and all that.

-Yeah, we got to catch up.
-HAYLEY: Well, you looked like

a woman on a mission
when you walked in.

Don't let us keep you.

Actually, I-I'm the one
who got to dip.

-Hey, let's link up soon.
-It's a date.

So, my dad doesn't
satisfy your appetite,

you got to get your hooks
in another man?

I was just being polite.

That's Naomi's brother-in-law.

I-I figured I'd build a rapport,

since it's only a matter of time

that Naomi and I
are gal pals again.

Mm. More like the end of time.

Well, I texted her while she was
waiting on her test results,

and she responded.

That was politeness,
not forgiveness.

[laughs softly]
You know,

your dad's in a similar
headspace right now.

Is Dad sick?

He's just a little concerned

about some
abnormal test results.

You should text him.

[sighs]

Ah.

Hey, Miss Anita.

Things are lit, they're locked,

-and we are ready to make magic.
-[laughs softly]

Thank you for coming by
on such short notice.

I need to update
my profile pictures

and reveal a new look or two

before the gossips around here
start assuming things.

Yeah, smart thinking. [chuckles]

Yeah, smart thinking.

All these photos. Man.

-Look at you.
-[chuckles]

I would imagine that
you have tons of stories

about all the photo shoots
you've done.

[laughs]:
Oh, I sure do.

This photographer,
who shall remain nameless,

he wanted me to jump
on top of this piano

with a live peacock.

-A peacock?
-[both laugh]

Okay, well, that's on-brand.

Well, I didn't think so
at the time.

-Mm.
-I was so concerned

about my image and being the...

dignified professional
everyone expected me to be

that I refused to do it.

And now...

I wish I had just jumped
right on top of that piano.

It would have shown everyone
I wasn't always

the polished, controlled woman
that I felt I had to be.

It's interesting what you regret

when you feel the darkness
closing in.

[sighs] Hey, maybe
we should reschedule.

Oh. No, no, no.

I'm good.

Let's do this.

♪ A change...♪

Ow!

Just have a little fun with it.

♪ Tell me that
you feel it, too♪

♪ A change is happening here♪

-I'm gonna make this happen.
-All right, here we go.

♪ A change is coming,
a change is coming♪

♪ A change is coming,
a change is coming...♪

Right there.

♪ A change is,
a change has come.♪

As fun as your drop-in has been,

I have had a long day
of being poked and prodded,

and I'm tapped out.

-Poked and prodded?
-Yeah.

I was at the hospital earlier.

Was it stroke-related?

No, no, just some routine
blood work came back elevated.

You know,
and Madison was concerned.

How concerned?

Enough to want to admit me
for overnight observation.

You know, I don't get it.
It-it doesn't make any sense.

You know, I work out every day,
I eat like a monk,

my mind is clear, but...

you know, somehow it just feels
like my body's betraying me.

And instead of being
in a hospital room

for supervision,
you're lounging here?

Well, you know, Hayley didn't
think it was necessary.

When did she get
her medical degree?

You know what? Save it.

This is exactly what I'm here
to put a stop to.

To what?

To us.

Just dropping off these essays
for internship candidates.

Uh, you said
you wanted hard copies.

NAOMI [laughs]:
Hard copies, huh?

MARTIN [chuckles]:
Email's fine the next time.

Sit. I'll get you a drink.

You can be our judge...

...if you rule in my favor.

Oh, he wouldn't dare.

[laughter]

Y'all look like
you're having fun.

Mm-hmm.

Which is more than
I can say for Jacob.

Wait, did you see him today?

Yeah, now, Pops has been
riding him about a case.

Well, did he at least
tell you what it's about?

Nah, he kept it vague.

But he said it was nothing
to stress over.

God, I pray that's true.

Naomi keeps pressing me
for questions I can't answer.

-Did you give her anything?
-Nah, man.

I can't compromise
an active investigation.

Yeah, I didn't give Martin
anything, either.

But I did promise him

that I would get out
if this got too dangerous.

Listen, man,
what happened to the courier,

it comes with the territory.

But I deal with these kind
of risks on a daily basis,

so I'm not fazed by it.

But if you want
to walk away, I...

No. No.

No, I'm not dealing
with these people directly.

And by the time
the story comes out,

the bad guys
will be behind bars.

So, we're both still in?

Looks like it.

[phone chimes]

It's Max.

And?

I'm in.

Hey.

"Hey" yourself.

I'm glad you were still close
when I texted.

Oh, yeah,
I had to stop and get this.

It's a guidebook, for Denmark.

-I don't think it's the right...
-You shouldn't go.

[both chuckle]

You first?

I think I got caught up
in the romance of it all,

and I didn't think
things through.

It's just not a good time
right now,

with everything
my family's going through.

Yeah. I understand.

And I'd never ask you
to leave them

while so much is happening.

So, where does this leave us?

I'm willing to try
long-distance if you are.

[laughs softly]

Hmm. Well, I didn't realize

that you still
thought of us as an us.

Don't start.

We both know
what's been happening here.

A few too many strolls
down memory lane

with a couple stops
at Make-Out Point.

I'm never getting stuck with you
in Lover's Alley again.

Mm. Okay, so you're here
to draw a line in the sand.

-In concrete.
-Huh. Well...

I think you tried that before
and it didn't exactly take.

Andre and I are in
a stronger place now.

I'm not making
the same mistake twice.

Don't you mean three times?

Or was it four?

You know, exactly
how many times have we kissed?

Too many, is my point.

Bill, this...

this dance we're doing,
it's not healthy.

We have to stay away
from each other.

-Can you do that?
-Yes.

Can you?
