All language subtitles for Hotel - S03E02 - Rallying Cry

You're all set for the Indy 500.

Is it the rally to Yosemite?

Probably a practice run for the Grand
Prix. Well, that's what happens when you

thirst for life in the fast lane. Come
on, you guys. You know we never even go

over the speed limit.

McDermott insisted moments before he and
his spider roadster left on a grueling

race over torturous terrain.

And think of what awaits him at the
finish line. A gorgeous blonde, a pagnum

champagne. Knowing my luck, it's four
new tires and a lube job.

Well, that shouldn't be a problem.

Management's negotiating team checks
into 1230. Labor won't be here till

Morning, Mr. McDermott's office.

No, he's not in today. It's his day off.

His what?

Navigator? What if they meet in the
lobby? Well, then I guess they'll have

say hello.

It's not as if they're at war.

They are.

Are you in for Marty Yamagata? He says
it's urgent.

Yeah, I'll take it to my office. You
remind them that the lobby's a

demilitarized zone, huh?

He'll be right with you.

Marty. Yeah, I just have to pick up the
car and I'll meet you in, uh... What?

She didn't.

Both front teeth.

Must have been one hell of a line drive.
She's gonna be okay, isn't she?

Oh, great.

Well, you tell her I still think she's
the best shortstop in Little League.

Or the rally. Well, then, I'll make some
calls. Maybe I can find someone.

Anything serious?

Better than always is, Victoria.

That's what your father used to say.

I think he'd be pleased.

Everything's perfect, Victoria. Your
blood pressure's right on the mark. Your

heart's good and strong.

I understand yours has missed a few
beats lately.

We've known each other a long time,
Michael.

You used to call me Aunt Vicki,
remember?

I want to help.

Well, it has been tough, especially for
Jody.

The kid's hurting more than any of us.

The publicity certainly hasn't helped.

Neither have her aunt and uncle.

They don't seem to care how she feels as
long as they win.

If it's any consolation, I'm 100 %
behind you and Alex.

But what if things don't work out?

Jody's mother wanted Alex and me to
raise her.

I just can't believe that a judge would
go against her wishes or Jody's either.

If you need me for anything, I make a
great character witness.

Thank you, Victoria.

Bye -bye.

Thank you. It's very pretty.

Now, don't forget, Jody, you have to be
extra careful when you and your little

friends play with this.

Yes, ma 'am.

Do you want to try it out?

To see how the lights work?

I tried them already.

Well, no matter what we do, it just
won't please her.

Because she's not getting her own way.

She's just a little girl. She has no
understanding of what's involved here.

But we're not playing games, Nora. It's
her life.

I know that, dear. I just can't help
wondering what her life would be like if

she's so unhappy.

A whole lot better than living with two
queers.

Any other day I'd jump at the chance,
but today's a killer.

What's Mark's schedule like?

Ever plan a wedding reception?

For triplets.

Be careful. He's a desperate man.

I must have made a dozen calls.
Everybody's got a partner.

Without a navigator, I'm not allowed to
run the race.

What does a navigator do?

Reads the map.

It gets us to the checkpoints on time.

Say the instructions say go so many
miles and then turn left at the clump of

trees. Wait a minute. A navigator checks
the forest for the trees?

How about it?

You know, if we hurry, we can make my
start time.

I don't know the first thing about
rallying.

It's easy. You'll pick it up in no time.

Do I have a choice?

Can I get a hologram to crash on?

What's today? Free dress?

Your Capitan waits for no man.

Yosemite?

And who's going to mind the store?

Oh, it's just for today.

I'm going to be his navigator.

How does one sail to Yosemite?

It's a road rally. Christine was the
only one I could find.

Isn't he being complimentary?

Have fun.

The judge wants to see us in chambers
tomorrow.

He didn't waste much time.

Are you worried? Of course I am.

We're the only family Jody has.

If you think I've got to sit back and
let two homosexuals raise her, you've

another guest coming.

That little girl's testimony was very
convincing.

She was brainwashed by her mother.

She and I never got along.

Well, don't forget public opinion.

This city is not exactly clamoring to
see you win.

Wheeler, sweet please.

They're going to think we're ganging up
on her. We want to see Jody. We have a

right to visit.

Hello? Hi there, kiddo. Hi, I called
before and left a message on your

We got it loud and clear.

Are you and Dr. Mike coming to kidnap
me?

Hold on. The doc wants to say hello.

Hi. I guess you know tomorrow's the big
day.

I wanted to be there, but Aunt Nora said
I wouldn't understand.

She thinks I'm a baby, Mike.

I better get off.

May I, please?

Who is this?

It's Dr. Vaughn.

You were told to stay away from the
child.

But you and your husband, not the court.
What is she saying?

You may have temporary... Let's go up
there. Alex, it's only one more day.

Tell Jody we'll call her back.

Alex.

Will you calm down, please? They're
keeping the kid a prisoner. They just

want her to see us right now.

Everything will be resolved tomorrow.

Mike, it's not fair.

Fairness isn't on trial.

Then what the hell is? Our king -size
bed?

By the way, why aren't we taking your
beautiful Porsche?

I save it for day.

Now, don't forget, we've got to hit 25
landmarks between here and Yosemite.

All right, let me see if I got this. And
at every fifth one, there's a check

mark. Right.

The first car that pulls in with all of
them marked off wins.

I told you this was easy.

It says you lose points if you go over
the speed limit.

Go!

Didn't think you were going to make it,
Peter, until you got yourself a new

navigator. Yeah, lady's a crackerjack.

They call her the Oklahoma Kid.

She's in your hands now, kid.

Thanks. Can I open this?

Not until you get your start, which
should be just about... Now! Go!

Hey, listen to these instructions.

Take Great Burnham Wood to High
Dunsinane Hill, then follow the track

the rill. The what?

How'd you get into rallying, anyway?

Figured it was a good way to meet women.

Kind with steely nerves.

Now, Jody, we'll be right downstairs if
you need us.

You're not eating. I thought you'd like
that.

I'm not hungry.

She didn't eat her lunch, either.

Jody.

Your aunt and I love you.

We're only trying to do what's best.

For you, maybe, but not for me.

Just because they're homosexual doesn't
mean that they don't know how to take

care of me.

Now, Jody, please, dear.

You don't even know what that word
means.

before she died.

She told me. She did.

All we want is for you to have a normal,
healthy childhood.

I'm healthy. I got all my shots.

Don't be fresh.

Now, you know what I mean.

No, I don't.

It's a free country. Everyone says so.

But you won't even let me talk to them.

Jody, will you come back here and
apologize?

Mom said I could live with them.

Everything's going to be all right.

Everything will be fine, you'll see.

It was definitely the real that screwed
us up.

What's the bottom line?

You're lost.

I guess we better turn around, see if we
can find our way back to the highway.

Peter. Peter, please say something.

You okay?

How's your head?

You mean it's still screwed on?

We could have been killed.

Yeah, well, we're still alive, okay?

That's what I love about you.

Always looking at the bright side.

Peter, we gotta get you to a doctor.

We stopped by the body shop on the way.

Why don't you throw something?

Yell at me. Just get it off your chest.
I can't take too much more of this,

okay? More of what?

Everyone at the magazine thinks you're a
hero, and half of my patients think

I've got the plague.

So what gives you the right to complain?

Look, you keep everything to yourself.
You always have. A lot of good it does.

Right, right. Make me the heavy.

I'm sorry.

It's just all this pressure.

God loves everybody, mister, fags
included.

Will you stay still?

This is a nasty cut.

I'm okay.

Any luck?

Maybe we should just head out on foot.

According to the Auto Club, it'd take us
hours. It's a good 10 miles to the

highway and 15 to the nearest town.

And just a couple of yards to France's
famous fried chicken.

Now you're talking.

Matching up your car just to get a girl
alone on a country road.

Well, you know me, I like to do things
in a big way.

Besides, running out of gas isn't nearly
as convincing.

I get the feeling you're enjoying that.

Stuck out here in the boonies with the
Oklahoma kid?

you'll understand how much we love you.

She's going to have to be punished for
this.

I know. I know.

We have to be strong for Jody's sake.

Or for yours.

Nora, we've been through this.

We're not youngsters anymore. Nobody
says it's going to be easy to raise a

little girl, but she's all alone.

You know she's not.

Both her parents are dead, and those two
boys are not going to take their place.

They're not bad people, Cam.

I didn't say they were.

But they're not going to play house with
my little niece, and they're not going

to make her part of the disease.

My famous fried chicken isn't moving as
quickly as I thought.

Yeah, I guess I wasn't that hungry.

I'm beginning to feel really guilty.

Don't be ridiculous.

I mean it.

If I hadn't gotten this lost, none of
this would have happened.

And if Marty Yamagata's daughter hadn't
been hit in the mouth with a softball,

I'd be stuck here with him.

Look how clear it is.

You can count the stars on Orion's belt.
Look.

You don't get out of the city enough.

Is that where they come from?

Come on.

I know you.

You're not really worried, are you?

We got a blanket.

We got a nice warm fire.

Just hike out of here in the morning.

Marty.

Couldn't you just kill for a cup of hot
coffee?

What's the matter?

Oh, my legs fall asleep.

Pins and needles in my arm.

You got any aspirin in your navigator
bag?

I don't know. I'll look.

My head feels like it's exploding.

I'm going for help.

No, no, it's too far.

Don't worry. I'll be okay.

No, I can't let you.

You all right?

Look,

Peter, I gotta get you help. Now you
just stay put.

You warm enough?

Christine,

please be careful.

I'll be back so fast you won't even know
I was gone.

Good morning. Good morning. Is Mr.
McDermott in yet? Haven't seen him.

That race must have really taken it out
of him.

Is Christine up there?

Come to think of it, we haven't seen her
either.

Good morning, Mr. McDermott's office.

I see.

Could you hold on a moment?

It's one of the rally officials.

Something's happened.

Christine and Mr. McDermott never even
reached the halfway point of that race

they were in.

This has been a most difficult decision
for me.

I'm particularly aware that some may
consider my opinion to constitute a

precedent. I've tried to keep this out
of my mind in the interest of coming to

just and reasonable ruling.

Having listened to the arguments
presented by both sides, it is my firm

that society cannot tolerate the
presence of a small child in the home of

self -admitted homosexuals.

Custody of the minor child...

Jody Beth Abbott is awarded to the
petitioners, Mr. and Mrs. Wheeler, with

right of reasonable visitation accorded
to the objectors.

Thank you, Reese. Thank you.
Congratulations.

Congratulations.

Peter, I brought help.

I tried getting up.

It's okay.

We're not that far from the city.

We'll get you an ambulance. Everything's
going to be all right, I promise.

Christine, I don't know what's wrong.

But my right side, I can't feel
anything.

Sure, everything's all right. After all,
Mr. McDermott has been in rallies

before. Then why haven't they called?

Well, he may have had a flat, a car
broke down, something simple like that.

They could be lost.

Well, that would explain everything,
wouldn't it?

So you mustn't worry.

Mr. Wheeler.

You know, Jody is upstairs with the
babysitter. Can't we talk to these

later? Were you surprised by today's
ruling, Mr. Wheeler? Not at all.

What's the youngster's reaction?

Didn't she testify against you?

We challenged a will. No one was on
trial.

Didn't you say morality was?

Do you feel you've gone against the
wishes of the deceased?

We tried to do what was best for Jody.
Isn't that what her mother had in mind?

Jody?

It was just on the radio.

Can I talk to you about it?

Please.

I didn't mean to break the dollhouse.

I'm sorry.

But I still mean what I said to the
judge.

I want to live with Dr. Mike and Alex.

Come here, dear.

You don't think that we did this to hurt
you.

Besides, you know, Michael and Alex are
very busy.

And they won't have as much time for you
as I do.

I'll be home when you get back from
school.

I can take you to ballet.

And piano. I don't play the piano. I
can't even carry a tune.

Well, I'll teach you.

Whatever that you want, Jody.

So long as you believe that we love you.

But you didn't love my mom, did you?

How can you say that? She was my sister.

Then why can't you do what she wanted?
She knew what was right for me.

We talked about it.

We planned it together when she got
sick.

It always will be.

Dr.

Adams to radiology.

Dr. Adams to radiology.

What's the matter with him, Doctor?

Well, I can only conjecture your friend
suffered a head injury. The paralysis

may have been brought out by a subdural
hematoma.

I'm sorry, can you translate that?

When he struck his head, a blood vessel
might have hemorrhaged, causing a clot

to form between his brain and his skull.

Okay, what does that mean?

Well, we'll have to see what the spinal
tap looks like and the results of the x

-rays. Look, this is going to take a
couple of hours if you'd like to leave

number. No, no, I want to be here when
he gets back.

I'll wait.

We have to get him done.

Call me the moment you hear anything.

Yes, Christine.

Yes, as soon as I can.

Sorry.

This has not been a day to celebrate for
lots of reasons.

Michael, I know you're hurting.

But you've only lost the first round.

Wheeler wouldn't even let us tell Jody
in person.

People are frightened of what they don't
understand.

They see your lifestyle as threatening
their values.

I believe in God and country.

Why is it so difficult for people to be
tolerant?

They're seeing the world through
blinders.

All the more reason why you can't give
up.

You've got a good chance to win an
appeal, Michael.

And you're not the only substitute
parents that this will affect.

I'm afraid at this point we're no longer
substitutes.

We're symbols.

Rather battered ones at that.

It's all my fault.

Come on, you're not going to pull that
on us. I got us lost.

We ended up on some roads.

Come on.

It could have happened anywhere.

How's he doing?

Oh, I spoke to the doctor earlier.
They're not finished with their test.

Do they have any idea what's wrong?

They think it's a subdural hematoma.

What?

A blood clot.

Do they have to operate?

And it's a hematoma.

And they don't operate.

I'm gonna die.

What

the

hell's going on, Mike?

We're not the scum of the earth.

You're a doctor, for God's sake.

We got a nice friend.

All this love to give her.

Look, we'll appeal.

To what?

Human decency or a higher court?

Remember a gay pride week last year? We
watched them marching on the news. I

remember thinking, yeah, we're not like
that.

We don't go out and make a public
spectacle of our sex life.

Know something?

I got pride in me and you and our life
together.

And no judge in the world is going to
take that away from us.

You're going to love your new little
friends in Redding. We're not leaving

tomorrow, are we? Of course we are,
honey.

We've got your room all fixed up.

But all my friends are here.

I don't know anyone in Redding. You'll
make new friends, don't worry.

How about some strawberry shortcake?

I bet it's not as good as yours, though.

I don't want any, thank you.

Can I go upstairs now?

Come on, you two.

I'm feeling a whole lot better.

Why don't you call it a day?

He's right, Mrs. Cabot. It's getting
late.

Don't forget, you need some rest, too.

And, Peter, I'll call you in the
morning.

You look so much better than you did
this morning.

At least that headache's gone.

Why don't you go on home?

You look like you're running on empty.

I'm okay.

Terry brought over a change of clothes.

Only we had some answers.

He means a great deal to me, too.

I feel so helpless, Mrs. Cabot.

You're here.

That's as much help as any of us can
give.

All I'm saying is that we're taking her
away from everything that she

understands. Laura, she's 11 years old.

Jody?

Honey? Are you all right?

Isn't it time for you to try to
understand how...

I'm

going to have the chef whip you up a
batch of your favorite blueberry

for breakfast.

Miss Francis. Hi.

It's what I thought. The x -ray showed a
linear skull fracture.

That and the results of the spinal tap
and the carotid angiogram we gave him.

It's a subdural.

What happens now?

Well, we have to clear out the clot.

Don't worry. It's pretty routine.

Mr. McDermott, we have the test results.

Mr. McDermott?

Mr. McDermott?

Can you hear me?

Mr. McDermott?

Well, he was awake a second ago.

Peter!

Say something.

She slipped into coma.

We don't operate tonight.

Maybe there was some out of it.

Yeah, who is it?

It's me, Jody.

What happened?

I ran away.

And I didn't know where I was. And I was
so scared.

And then this lady gave me directions.

It's okay. You're safe now.

You're with us.

And you better call the wheeler.

I don't want them to know.

Jody, they'll be worried.

No, they won't. Why should they be? They
don't even love me.

Come on, honey. You know they do.

You tell them where I am.

Then you don't love me either.

Jody, that is not true.

Then hide me.

They'll go away.

I can stay with you.

It's not that easy, Jody.

Alex and I love you very, very much.

I wish the judge would have allowed you
to stay with us, but we have to obey the

law, whether we agree with it or not.

What good is the law?

It doesn't care about a person's
feelings.

I found out what real means.

It's a tiny stream.

I would have thought that lousy trickle
of water could have screwed us up like

this.

It's going to be hours and then be a
post -op after that.

I've been calling that hospital ever
since I got up.

No one will give me a straight answer.

I'm going over there now. I'll see what
I can find out.

I'll see you there.

It's really unfair, Victoria, that I've
gotten you involved. We know what you're

going through right now.

What's unfair? Is you expecting so
little of your friends?

I'm Victoria Cabot. Thank you for
coming.

Judy.

Darling.

We were so worried.

Hi, sweetheart.

Mrs. Cabot, do you mind telling us why
we were called here?

Let's say I'm a friend of the family.

I've known Dr. Vaughn since he was a
boy.

Considering the acrimony between you, I
thought you'd appreciate meeting on

neutral ground.

Sweetheart, why did you run away?

You haven't figured that out yet, Alex.

I'm sorry if I'm being rude, but at this
late date, the problem isn't our

manners, is it? At this late date, I see
no reason to continue this discussion.

Jody, we allowed you to stay the night
with your friends. Now say goodbye.

You'll see them again.

May I ask one question, Mr. Wheeler?
Mrs. Cabot, this is really none of your

concern. The debate is closed.

Surely your heart isn't.

Time to go settle the bill, Laura.

I don't know what to do, Mrs.
Kaepernick.

I'm supposed to feel grateful that this
is over.

But I don't.

I thought we were doing the right thing.

And now?

When a child's in pain, how can that be
right?

Jody.

Come on, dear.

How is he?

We cleared out the clot. He's in post
-op.

Then he's going to be all right?

It's still too early to tell.

What are you talking about?

I don't mean to paint a bleak picture,
but there's just no way of knowing if he

suffered any brain damage.

You mean possible loss of the use of his
arm or leg?

I'm sorry, but I think he should be
prepared.

There's a chance he may never come out
of the coma.

Where's Jody?

Did you leave her alone?

Are you afraid she's going to run away
again?

Come over here.

Please.

We can't go through with this.

Of course we can, and we will.

We won.

It's legal. She's ours.

She's Carol's child.

And we can give her all the love in the
world.

And she's still going to hate us for
going against my sister's wishes.

I couldn't bear that.

Do you want them to raise her?

To teach her all about... They won't.
You know that.

What they do in private is nobody's
business. Not ours, not Jody's, not

anybody's.

Cam, listen.

Carol was ready to marry Dr. Vaughn just
to make sure that her will was

implemented. She was distraught. She
knew she was terminus. She knew what was

best for her daughter.

And we have to honor that.

What kind of a home life will she have
with those two? Two men.

Hardworking, caring, same as you and me.

Jody will never be corrupted by love.

And you know how much she loves them.

Do you want to take the responsibility
for destroying that child's goodness?

Is there anything more they can do for
him?

Could be hours, days.

There's no way of knowing if he'll ever
wake up.

What does the doctor say?

That's the hardest part, isn't it?

Whatever

Well, that's everything.

I'll wait in the car, Norm. Mr. Wheeler,
we don't know what to say except thank

you.

Uncle Cam, please don't be mad at me.

I want us to be friends.

Really, I do.

That's all right. You don't have to
pretend.

I'm not.

Honest.

You and Nora are the only aunt and uncle
I have.

I love you for finally listening to me.

We love you too, sweetheart.

As long as you know that.

We're all going to try very hard.

Come on, Jody.

Let's go home.

Did you ever lose a friend somebody
really cared about?

No, I guess I've been pretty lucky.

Maybe your luck will hold out.

Let's hope so.

Hi.

Any word?

No change.

Is that good?

I think if it was good, they'd be
smiling.

We saw Mrs. Cabot in the hall.

Yeah, she went to speak to his doctor.

How's Christine holding up?

They're only letting one person in at a
time, and she's in with them now.

You can't do this to me, Peter.

I'm not going to let you get away with
this.

You're not going to get off that easy.

You've got to give me some answers
first.

Like why you didn't kiss me.

Stars were out.

Oh, it's perfect.

Now it's anything but.

Don't leave me, Peter.

We haven't finished yet.

We haven't even started.

I guess we didn't win, did we?

No.

So it's next time?

Maybe if you promise to get it lost
again.
