You're gonna tell me you can't do this.

Yeah.

- Um... I suppose.

Why don't I whip us up

LEON: The only thing that got me through

sitting in that jail cell was you,

knowing that you'd be
out here waiting for me.

I'm not gonna help

I'd like to testify

Hey, Ron.

Jeez! Roxy.

Give me a heart attack, why don't ya?

You need to tell Diane not to testify.

How do you even know about that?

I have sisters in high places now.

They tell me things.

Well, your mother believes
it's the right thing to do,

and you know how she gets.

She gets something in her head,
and you can't talk her out of it.

You know, I might finally
have something good

happening in my life,
and I don't want her

to come in and wreck
it, like she always does.

You know I got this kid I'm gonna train?

Oh, yeah? Training's
a good next chapter.

Where you training her
out of? Karolyi's ranch?

Twistars?

Actually, she's a private client.

Yeah, she's really promising.
She has a lot of potential.

Oh, is she paying ya?

Why is it always about
money with you people?

You need to make a living.

You don't have a fallback, honey.

Taking on some girl who
has no idea of your value

doesn't sound like a good one.

Why do you have to be like this?

I'm still your dad, whether
you believe it or not.

I want what's best for you.

Then tell Diane not to testify.

Take a little more off the beard.

He's starting to look like Santa Claus.

Rox.

Come on, sweetie.

JULIA: "Not Parent Expected",

that's what the phenomenon's called,

when you find out your
father isn't the man

you thought he was.

It's shattering, life-changing,

and that's why we offer
a support system here.

We have therapy groups
run by many pro...

I'm not here for support.

I really just need Leon
Bechley's medical records.

My parents were clients,

and I took the free DNA
test, and it turns out...

You're one of my father's...

Yeah.

Oh. Hi.

Um... I know how strange this all is,

the idea that suddenly you have
dozens of brothers and sisters

out there you never knew existed.

So if you wanna check
out one of our groups, um,

- I can give you some more...
- Yeah, I have a career and a relationship.

I can't let your father's
actions derail my entire life.

When a class action suit gets filed,

believe me, I'll sign up.

But, uh, in the meantime,
my husband and I are

thinking about starting a family,

so I really need the medical records.

I hear you, and, uh,
we can help with that,

discreetly and quickly.

- We're, uh, professionals here.
- JULIA: Oh, we are.

And husband? Oh... that's fun.

I mean, it's... I mean, it's great,

'cause it's... it's... it's normal.

But I mean, it's, like...
of course it's normal.

It's just that I don't
know what I'm talking about.

I'm just nervous 'cause
you're my brother,

kind of.

So how long will that
take, the medical records?

Usually eight to ten working days.

But we can put a rush on it.

Just let us know where you
want the records, and we'll...

(CLICKS TONGUE) Get 'em there.

Uh, you can find me here.

I also want to give back.

Dr. Leon Bechley. I am a board-certified

of practicing medicine ever again,

you need to do this.

You need to do it right.

Uh, what, get a puppy?

Never. We just got our floors done.

Edie, I mean a baby.

I want us to have a family of our own.

But I just... I don't
know if it's the right time

for a baby.

- The case...

And plus, you'd be such

You're perfect to be a mom.

- What?
- Mm, nope. That's not an expression.

I don't know. Nate!

Hello, sisters.

I didn't think you were gonna be here.

Well, I wanted to meet my half sisters.

You've told me so much about them.

- Hi. Roxy.
- Hello.

What a family.

Straight, gay, black,
white. We're such a mix.

- I love it.
- Uh, I'm just a Mets fan.

I'm not gay.

Oh, so you're the gay one.

Dude, nobody's gay.

I cannot believe you, Julia.

I'm so sorry.

Wait. You're gay?

(LAUGHS)

What about Tim?

Tim, you mean her husband, Tim?

- No, my husband, Tim.
- I'm confused.

You both have husbands named Tim?

- No.
- ROXY: No, no, no, no.

Uh, Edie's husband is named Tim.

Julia doesn't have a husband,
like, not even close.

(WHISPERING) And are you gay?
