All language subtitles for Party of Five s05e16 Party of Freud

(Knock on door)

What's going on with you?

nothing.

then why aren't you

answering your phone?

and why haven't

I seen you in class?

ned, what are you-

I've just been thinking,

that's all.

I was thinking

about stuff.

away from everyone.

ok.

including-including me?

ok.

how's your face?

does it still hurt?

it's fine.

let me take a look

at it.

no, don't. Just stop.

(sighs)

you can talk to me,

you know.

are you still really

angry, is that it?

you want to go beat

him up or something?

no, that's not-

is this how it felt

when I hit you?

what?

this is how it felt,

isn't it?

ned, it's not the same.

i-i don't know about that

'cause this is-

this is bad.

and I don't know why.

if it's me

or if it's you

or if it's something

about the two of us

when we're together

that makes me-

I don't like it when

I get angry at you.

I don't like it when

you end up crying.

ned.

no, listen to me!

I've been thinking

about this.

this is what I've

been thinking about.

the two of us,

it's just not good.

that's not true.

and I want it

to be over.

I want you

to leave me.

or I'll leave you.

it doesn't matter.

am I supposed

to say thank you?

you can't make a decision

like this on your own.

yes, I can.

no, that's not fair!

you can't punish me

for what Griffin did.

you can't punish me

for the fact

that you get angry.

I'm not punishing you.

I'm just saying enough.

you should be glad

I'm doing this, Julia,

'cause I don't want you

to end up like this.

and I can't be sure of

that unless you go away.

no, no, you have

to go away.

? Everybody wants to live ?

? like they wanna live ?

? and everybody

wants to love ?

? like they wanna love ?

? and everybody

wants to be ?

? closer to free ?

? closer to free... ?

Just-just relax, ok.

it's not a test.

I know. Ha ha ha.

you want me

to take her back?

no, not yet.

(gurgling)

ha ha ha.

wow, that's-

she kind of looks

more like me now,

don't you think?

you mean her mouth?

yeah. Ha ha ha.

yeah, yeah, definitely.

she recognizes you.

you can tell.

(gurgling)

no.

yeah. Look

how calm she is.

she's never that way

with strangers.

I am a stranger.

(gurgles)

there's no harm done,

you know.

I mean,

she doesn't understand.

she doesn't-

she doesn't blame you.

Charlie.

I'm just saying.

what? What is he saying?

what is your daddy

saying to me, hmm?

what is he saying?

do you know? Oh!

you're not supposed to

have favorite students?

that's, like,

something they

tell you not to have

because the other kids

pick up on it?

but I couldn't help it.

as soon as Owen

came into my classroom,

Mr. salinger?

he's bright. He's sweet.

he's got this glow?

I know. I know. I've been

spending time with him.

more than usual and he's

all the stuff you're saying.

so you must

have been surprised

when I called you in?

uh, the parent-teacher

conference.

isn't this

the usual thing?

the usual thing's

in the fall.

I called you 'cause

I'm observing something.

something that

could be a problem,

but I'm not sure?

a problem?

what kind of problem?

ok. Owen was

one of those kids

who was already reading

when he started school?

then I started noticing

how he'd get

word order wrong?

typical problems.

typical of what?

kids with l.D.

learning disabilities.

but you were just saying

how bright he is.

that's exactly

what we look for,

when they're bright and

there's still a problem.

Ms. lo?

could this be at all because

he's stressed out at home?

because my brother Charlie's

got this new baby.

and-and it's been

really rough on him.

I couldn't say.

maybe that's what

the test will tell us?

tests?

we usually don't

give them this young,

but if

something's wrong,

the sooner the better?

she held her for

like 45 minutes.

she wouldn't even

let me take her back.

they were-they were

giggling with each other.

it was, uh-

I haven't say

anything to her yet

about what I'm thinking,

but, uh,

they were so good

together. Ha ha ha.

Daphne was so good

with her.

this might actually

work out.

Kirsten?

what? Oh, that's great,

Charlie.

that's really great.

you don't have to hang

around with me, you know.

I'll be fine by myself.

I'm not going to run out

and beat up someone.

just in case,

you know, I'll stay.

Did you try

calling her again?

doesn't seem like

much of a point right now.

Griffin, are you

still in love with her?

she doesn't

deserve it, Griffin.

you care and care

and care about someone

and they don't do

anything back.

it's not that simple.

I'm not doing this.

what? Julia-

I'm not doing this your way

just 'cause you say so.

that's not how it works

with 2 people.

ok, but could we not-

I did this last year.

ned, I had a relationship.

I was in love with someone.

and things got bad

and I walked away.

and I'm not doing it again.

maybe it's about me.

'cause I don't-

I don't want to say

that every person

that I choose

is the wrong person.

or that I don't know

what the hell I'm doing

when I fall in love.

or maybe, I don't know,

I just don't want to be

the kind of person

who gives up on things

as soon as they get bad.

ned, I love you.

I love being with you.

I love sleeping with you.

I love the way

that you take care of me.

'cause no one has

taken care of me

in a really long time.

ok, maybe you have a problem.

so, you get angry and you

don't know how to control it.

but that doesn't make you

a bad person.

and you can get help

for stuff like that.

I can help you get help,

and I'll stay with you.

I'll stay with you

if you get help.

I don't know.

I thought we could, um,

take a walk

or something.

go down to the pier,

walk around.

I have to go to work.

right now at this hour?

it's telephone

solicitation, Charlie.

this is when people

are at home.

right.

what?

what what?

oh, come on.

don't do this to me, ok?

what do you want?

you come down to L.A.,

and you tell me stuff

about my life

that I guess

I'm supposed to face.

and now we're

just hanging out.

and I don't know

what you expect,

walks on the pier?

what do you think

is going to happen?

I want you

to come back with me.

Charlie-

listen.

I went to

a psychiatrist.

and-and I showed her

the police report.

and I told her

the whole story.

everything

that happened.

you shouldn't

have done that.

listen to me. Listen.

she said that-

that it makes sense.

all this stuff with Diana.

everything that you're

feeling or can't feel

is because of

what happened to you.

and?

and...now that

we know that,

we can-we can

deal with it together.

oh, no.

no, Charlie, no, no.

oh.

god, you are

a sweet man

and everything

you've done for me.

and don't get me wrong,

it's wonderful.

I want the truth.

believe me, it is

a hell of a lot easier

for me to hate my mom

than it is

to hate myself.

but-but this is

who I am.

ok? This is

really who I am.

and that's all

you've proved.

so it's not my fault,

so what?

children grow up

all the time

with-with defects

that are no their fault.

so just think of me

as someone who was

born with a bad heart.

That's giving up.

and it's not even true.

I mean, talk

to the psychiatrist

I talked to.

talk to anybody.

you're not doomed

unless you decide to be.

and it's not like you

have some kind of fatal

disease or something.

even if you did,

you'd try to fight it.

you'd try

to-to survive.

(sighs)

so, I'm-I'm happy you

got all the facts, but-

just so you know,

from this point on,

you can stop blaming

your mom...

and start

blaming yourself.

You understand that

anything you say to me

is completely confidential.

I may work for

the university,

but this is

just between us.

ok.

ok.

what did you want

to talk to me about?

I hit sometimes.

I hit-

I hit her.

Owen's tests-

the district psychologist

will follow up.

but meanwhile,

it looks like he's got

what we call

a processing disorder.

translation?

look, we asked him

to draw a picture

about a story he read.

what he said about the story

was, like, brilliant,

but here's the picture.

that's way below the level

of what other kids can draw.

the good news is

in the long run

he can do what

any other kid can do.

the bad news is?

it's gonna be

harder for him.

and for the people

around him.

there's a study routine

2-3 hours a night.

2-3 hours?

same time, same room.

but it works.

that's if you're willing

to do it with him.

we are.

I am.

can I suggest something else,

Mr. salinger?

sure. Yeah.

like I said,

I'll do whatever.

then come to class.

we have parent volunteers.

you'd be the first father

we've seen in awhile.

father?

sorry. You know what i-

yeah, I do.

Julia?

oh, hey.

what are you-

is something wrong?

no. No. I just-i was

looking for you.

I wanted to talk

for a minute.

no one's gonna know what

we're talking about.

I promise.

all right.

um, look, I don't know

if you know this,

but apart from any

of the sessions that

I have with you and ned,

the university also

has a group for women.

for women?

yeah.

who are similar situations.

so that they can talk

to each other

and get counseling

and advice.

ok.

I don't-i don't

think I need that.

but ok. Thanks.

look, I'm not trying

to push you.

but there are a lot

of things that go on

when you're the victim of

violence in a relationship.

there are issues of

self-esteem-

I'm not a victim

of violence, ok?

look, Julia, I know-

what is this,

some kind of battered

women's group?

'cause that's-

that is not what's

going on here.

and once you talk

to ned a little more,

you'll see that.9

he just-he has

problems with his anger

sometimes, that's all.

Julia, ned is not

here right now.

if this is the kind

of help that you want,

but you're afraid of

what ned will think-

if you're afraid

of ned in any way-

that's what you think?

you think

I'm afraid of ned

and that's why

I came to see you?

I'm just listening to you.

I'm giving you

the opportunity-

don't patronize me, ok?

you don't know me.

you don't know us.

right.

I'll see you

at the session.

Hey.

you wouldn't happen

to know anything about

the, uh, imagery of

birth and renewal

in Shakespeare's

the tempest, would you?

uh...no.

yeah. Same here.

what's with

the suitcase?

oh. Um, I'm gonna go away

for a little while.

what? Why?

well, I haven't seen

my parents in a really

long time.

and I thought it would be

a perfect opportunity.

ok. But Charlie's

gonna be kind of bummed.

I mean, he's been

leaning on you a lot

lately.

and if you're not here

when he gets back...

I don't think he's

gonna mind that much.

to be honest with you,

I think I'd just-

I'd kind of be in the way.

that's not true.

in any case, um,

it's not good for me

to be here right now.

I'm not liking myself

very much.

sitting here waiting for-

I'm just rooting for

all the wrong things.

it's just-it's just

rotten timing.

I'm not getting this.

never mind. Just, um...

will you just give

this to Charlie

when he gets back?

it's just a little

good-bye note.

tell him I'll be away

for a few weeks.

can he call you

in Chicago if he wants?

if he wants.

I'll see you later, ok?

Hi. Ok.

ok. I'm making a rash,

spur-of-the-moment,

caution-to-the-wind

kind of decision here.

shh. Diana's

still sleeping.

(whispering)

oh. Sorry.

I'm sorry. Um...

I'm gonna go back

with you.

I'm gonna try, ok?

and I'm not gonna let

my mother have the last

word in my life.

and I will see

that psychiatrist

expert person of yours.

great. That's great.

except that, um,

we have to leave now.

I mean, we have to go

immediately because

I'm really, really

not sure.

right now?

yeah.

um, I've packed up

all the essentials.

Put me on a plane, Charlie.

I'm not gonna do that.

oh, for god's sake.

this is it, daph.

this is it. This is

the final move.

and we gotta

do this right.

meaning?

you got a job, right?

mm-hmm.

are you owed any money?

mm-hmm.

ok, then.

go pick up

your final paycheck.

then go back and pack up

all your stuff.

Diana and I'll take care

of renting the u-haul,

and we'll meet you back

at your place.

I'll have you home

by midnight.

is that fast enough

for you?

Everything ok,

Mr. salinger?

he's just plain Bailey.

just plain, that's me.

yeah, I'm fine.

are you

Owen's father?

nope. My brother.

actually, I'm

nobody's father.

well, are

you married?

nope. Not even married.

you got really long arms,

Owen's brother.

you could be

Ms. lo's boyfriend.

she doesn't

have one.

well, she did,

but he couldn't

get his act together

and get a job,

so she dumped him.

I see.

I can ask for you

if you want.

he's got a girlfriend.

you've got a girlfriend.

you think I don't know?

hey. You're not tracing.

better grab a marker

before there's

none of me left.

I wanted red.

hughly took the red.

you can have it.

Thanks for coming, bay.

It's just like I said-

he was always critical

all the time.

nothing I did was ever

good enough for him.

Julia knows.

she saw it.

so that's gotta mean

something, right?

that my dad was

always angry?

I'm not sure.

you mean, is that the reason

why you're angry?

because your father

was angry?

yeah, I guess.

well, it's not a question

of being angry.

everybody gets angry.

it's a question of being able

to control your anger.

ok. But still-

did your father

ever hit you?

no.

ok.

well, what about

your brother?

tell me about Richie.

Richie has nothing

to do with this.

uh-huh. What kind

of a kid was he?

was he, uh, really

quiet and withdrawn?

I guess. Sometimes.

did he ever get violent?

some autistic children

can exhibit bouts of

aggressive behavior.

I don't know.

ned, it's ok.

was Richie ever violent?

look, even if he was,

it's got nothing

to do with this.

he's not responsible

for what he does.

I'm not saying that he

is responsible for this.

what you do, you're

responsible for.

I'm just trying

to find out why.

and you want to blame

your father.

no, I don't.

yes, you do.

because you're angry

at your father.

what did your father do?

I don't know.

what did your father do

when Richie got violent?

nothing.

he did nothing?

did he tell Richie

to stop?

look, this has got

nothing to do with

why I hit people.

did your father blame you?

when you and Richie

were together

when you were younger,

and he got violent-

did your father blame you?

you know what?

I'm not doing this?

ned-

just shut up.

what's the matter, ned?

is this not going exactly

the way you planned it to go?

is that why you lose

your temper sometimes?

I guess I might lose

my temper sometimes, too-

if I'd been raised

the way you were-

hit by my brother

and blamed by my parents.

ok. You know what I

don't get about college?

the teachers,

they have these ph.D.'S

and everything, right?

and they're supposed

to know a million things

that we don't,

which is why we go

to them to study.

I'm with you so far.

ok. So, my poetry

professor, Ms. kellard,

assigns a paper on

Madonna's second album.

I mean, we can do

Madonna on our own,

you know?

we can be the kids.

it's Emily Dickinson

that we need

the help with.

Emily who?

what label's she on?

I'm kidding.

I'm definitely kidding.

but you do remember that

I at least half-sucked

at school?

don't remember you

on the inter-school

math squad,

but you had

your moments.

I was smart.

I'm not saying

that I wasn't.

just never showed up

in my grades-homework.

I could have died from

homework the other kids

just zipped right through.

you know what, Sarah?

I think that's why I need

to be there for Owen.

what do you mean,

Bailey?

you are there for him.

yeah. But I think

I understand how he feels.

I think I know-

I think I know

what he's going through.

I need to make sure he gets

all the help he needs.

everything.

it all gets

twisted around.

no, ned-

yes.

he takes everything

and turns it against me.

my brother...And you.

he's just trying

to figure out how all

the pieces fit together.

what pieces?

I lose my temper

sometimes.

that's all it is.

I don't think so.

that's all it is.

No. Don't. 'Cause i-

(door opens)

hey.

didn't know

you guys were-

what's going on?

get out of here, ray.

what?

get out of here!

do you mind?

I'm sorry.

no.

it's ok.

god.

it doesn't matter

what he thinks.

no. I want to get

out of here.

I want us

to get out of here.

I can't do therapy

any other way.

I can't go through

all that and have

to come home to him...

or Maggie.

I just want

to come home to you.

you cannot find

parking for a u-haul

in this neighborhood.

you're not done yet,

huh?

um, no.

Daphne?

what've you been doing

all afternoon?

you're only

half way done.

I know. See...

what's going on?

oh. We should have

left this morning.

I told you.

what?

don't get mad at me, ok?

are you getting cold feet,

is that what it is?

it's more

than just that.

what's the problem? You

want to talk about it again?

you want to talk about what

the psychiatrist told me?

no.

no. You don't want

to talk about it?

you're just changing

your mind.

I mean, did you listen

to anything I even said?

I listened

to everything.

no, you couldn't have!

yes, I did!

you really couldn't have!

I listened

to everything,

and I believed you.

and that's why.

I can't go.

what?

because of what you

said in the diner

yesterday morning.

you said that

she didn't blame me.

and that no damage

had been done.

yeah?

so that's, um,

that's what I've been

thinking about.

what?

see? It's not-

it's not that my mother

abandoned me.

it's that she did it

when I was old enough

to understand.

it's like she gave me

this disease that she

passed on to me.

but see,

I've stopped it.

as of right now,

I have stopped it.

but if I go home,

and I go in therapy,

and I try to get well,

and all this time,

I convince Diana

to depend on me-

and then I fail-

then I will have

given my daughter

what my mother

passed on to me.

that-that is so many ifs.

but I can't take

that risk.

she's already

growing up.

you can see it.

you can see it

in the way that

she looks at you.

and in the way that

she listens to you.

and in the way that

she understands you.

So...

this has to be it.

and there's

no more good-byes.

you can't ever

come here ever again.

and I can't-

I can't ever hold her

again.

and I can't ever

kiss her again.

and I can't ever...Tell

her that I love her.

so...

Take her and go.

go.

Don't go right

to work, Bailey.

I can't come in

every day, Owen.

I told Mrs. lo

I'd come in

one afternoon

every week, and I will.

I promise, ok?

sometimes

I'll make it 2.

don't worry

about me being there.

you're gonna

have a great day

at school today.

and tonight, after we read

some more dinosaur...

Charlie'll come pick you up.

oh, boy.

oh, come on.

you're gonna do great

with Charlie.

I'm gonna be great

at school.

I'm gonna be great

with Charlie.

how come

you know so much?

because I'm smart,

like you.

come here.

go on.

hello!

anybody home?!

hey.

hey.

let me help.

oh! Diana. Ohh.

look at you, girl.

look at you.

come here.

(Diana coos)

ahh.

what?

you got my message?

about Daphne?

Charlie, i-

yeah, I gave her

another chance,

for herself,

not for me.

it's up to her

to take it or not take it.

but we're copacetic,

right, girl?

what's up here?

Kirsten around?

i-i think

she figured that you'd

be back with Daphne.

that's what

you told her.

well, she just figured

she'd go and make room

for everyone.

she went back

to her folks in Chicago.

ppfft. Chicago.

but she left

a note for you.

I put it upstairs.

she said that you

could call her for sure.

ok.

Where's Julia?

what? Oh.

I told her

not to come.

uh-huh.

I think that's a mistake.

I think that, uh...

you should be

dealing with this together.

no, I don't think so.

I mean,

a lot of this stuff...

I just-i just

don't think she needs

to hear everything, ok,

all this crap

you drag out.

it's difficult.

huh?

and it's embarrassing.

but the two of you-

look, she's part

of the problem, ok?

she makes me get angry.

I told you that.

and I don't

need her here-

come off it, ned.

what?

you gonna stand there

and tell me you hit her

because of what she does?

come on. It's just

the two of us now.

this has nothing

to do with her.

it's you!

you hit because

you're a hitter.

how the hell

do you know?

you don't know anything

about her or me or us.

have you ever hit

anyone else?

if it's Julia,

if Julia

makes you hit her,

then I assume that you've

never hit anyone else.

have you ever hit

anyone else, ned?

I'm not doing this.

have you ever

hurt anyone, ned?

I mean really hurt

someone?

no.

well, do you think

that's impossible?

do you want to know

the statistics

on beaters

who put their wives

or their girlfriends

in the hospital?

just cut it out.

do you love her?

do you want her

to end up with a broken nose

or a broken arm?

or maybe things really

get out of control one time

with a concussion

or worse.

No.

then let's sit down

and talk about what you do.

(plucking strings)

baby still sleeping?

yeah.

traveling really

knocked her out.

Griffin: Hey, Claudia.

hey, I'm going

to the market.

I didn't know

if you wanted...

hey, Charlie.

what are you

doing here?

what?

man, don't you have

any sense of when

it's time to go?

you heard

about what happened.

I didn't-

pack your bags

and get out.

and leave

Julia alone.

listen, Charlie,

it's-it's kind of

complicated.

no, no, claud.

everything else in my life

is complicated, ok?

this is real simple.

Charlie- you beat up

my sister's boyfriend.

now get your stuff

and get out.

I was just gonna say

that you're right.

That one's

got trees, too?

mm-hmm.

nice.

Sarah...

why does Charlie

have to be the one

to raise Owen?

to be his father?

I'm thinking

of keeping Owen.

uh...

i-i don't think I...

like keep, raise him?

Charlie's

not his father.

he's his brother,

like I am.

yeah, but isn't he

his legal guardian?

I mean, isn't that-

he's his legal guardian

because

when we all decided,

I was 16 years old,

but a lot has changed

since then.

I'm older now, and-

and taking care of Owen

is suddenly

a bigger deal,

a lot of work.

but Charlie...

Charlie's got Diana now,

and with Daphne

coming back,

he's gonna be more

into his own thing

than ever.

Bailey, having Owen

here full-time-

have you-have you thought

about what it means?

do you know

what it means to me?

you don't.

you don't,

because I'm just

realizing it myself.

it's about knowing

that I can be the one

that makes a difference

for him.

I can make

the difference

between him

growing up and doing

anything he wants

or always struggling,

being behind

other people.

how do I not be there

for him, Sarah?

It's nice.

yeah. I think-

I think it's pretty good.

I mean, it's not

amazing or anything,

but we can afford it,

and, uh,

there's enough space

we can both work

and not climb all over

each other's backs.

the kitchen's

not so terrible.

I said it was nice.

come.

uh, sit.

sit, uh,

sit right here.

look around.

it feel big from

this perspective?

it feels...

like our place?

yeah.

it kind of does.

this is gonna be good.

this is what we needed,

just to get away

from all those

other pressures.

yeah. It'll be fun

to do this place.

you're perfect for me.

I mean it.

I love you.

and even with

all the bad stuff

that's between us,

it's really...

you're the only person

I can talk to.

I know.

can't talk

to that other guy,

that therapist guy.

ned-

no, I mean it.

he makes me feel

like I'm a criminal,

like I'm evil

or something.

no, that's not-

no, I'm telling you,

he can't just say,

"what do you two

fight about?"

it's always,

"let's find out what's

wrong with you."

"let's find out what's

really wrong with you."

do you think

there's something

really wrong with me?

no.

and then I just feel...

I don't know, ashamed...

and angry.

I mean, why is that

a good thing?

I mean, that just

makes it worse.

I'm supposed to try

not to be angry.

angry is exactly what

I'm trying to avoid.

right.

but if I'm here

with you...

(sighs)

so here's

what I'm thinking.

we put one desk

in the bedroom

and one desk out here

in the living room,

or we could put both desks

out here in the living room,

and then you could choose

which wall you want.

so which wall

do you want?

oh, I don't know.

that one, I guess.

good.

good.

Charlie.

hey.

hi.

hi.

how you doing?

I mean,

are you doing ok?

'cause I heard that

Daphne's coming back.

no, that's, uh...

that's not happening

actually,

at all.

oh.

what's not happening?

Daphne. Decided that she,

uh, she couldn't hack it,

made up her mind

that she couldn't hack it,

that she was gonna fail.

it's-it's a long story.

so sit. Tell it.

actually, no.

she, uh, she didn't come home

is the thing,

which means I gotta

get back to Diana now.

Claudia's got her,

and of course Claudia

would rather do Diana

than do her homework, so...

did you pack up

Owen's stuff? Owen!

wait. Hey, he's-

hey, he's-he's conked.

he's asleep.

well, he's asleep, man.

you know, why-

why get him up?

kids need their sleep.

right. So you don't

have to wake him up.

I'll just-I'll just

carry him out to the truck.

that's a mistake.

it's a mistake

because we had to do

all this work tonight,

and he'll wake up

exhausted,

and then school

will be even harder

for him tomorrow,

and he's gotta

do the same 2 hours

of work tomorrow night.

he's in kindergarten.

where's he getting

2 hours of work?

bay, look, thanks

for taking care of him,

but you obviously don't know

what you're talking about.

actually, Charlie...

I've had a couple

of long talks

with Michelle.

Michelle who?

Ms. lo, his teacher.

that's her name.

whatever. You're-

you're being weird, bay.

I'll just get him.

I can take him out

without waking him up.

that's-

that isn't possible,

to carry somebody

without waking them up.

what is going on

with you?

just let him sleep.

ok?

and then tomorrow,

you can get him

from school.

or I'll get him.

no. I'll get him.

I haven't seen him,

you know.

so, fine,

keep him for the night.

you know, Charlie,

you could still sit.

I mean, you haven't

seen us either.

thanks, but I

should get back

to the house.

Bailey,

why didn't you-

I know.

I couldn't.

not yet.

so you have to promise

that you'll call me

and give me the number

of where you're gonna be.

I'm not gonna do that.

yes, you are.

even if no one else

in this family

wants anything to do

with you anymore...

I do.

they've all got their own

stupid stuff to deal with,

but you care

about me, and...

I care about you.

I think it works

pretty well.

yeah. We do love

each other, but...

(Rings)

hello.

Mr. salinger?

this is Michelle?

uh, Ms. lo?

Owen's teacher.

yeah. Is, uh,

is he all right?

well, the psychologist

spent a good hour?

psychologist?

why is a psychologist

seeing Owen?

I told you this was

her day to swing by

the school,

and she did some

multisensory stuff

with him?

uh, multisensory?

what?

'cause l.D. Kids,

that-that's one thing

they have trouble with,

is coordinating senses?

are you asking me

or telling me?

look, you...

you gotta back up.

I don't even know

what you're talking about.

ok, look, I suffer

from upspeak, you know?

I can't help it?

it's a condition?

and-and in all the times

we've talked lately,

you've been

perfectly nice,

and now I don't see

why you're teasing me

about something

I can't help?

Ms. lo, this is...

I think you've been

talking to-to Owen's

other brother, Bailey.

you didn't come here

and-and lie on the floor?

what? No. No.

that was-that was

Bailey, I guess.

but I still

need to know why Owen's

seeing a psychologist,

so can you...

could we just start

at the beginning?

I have to say

I've seen people do this

with Chinese,

and I've seen people

do this with pizza,

but I've never seen

anyone do this with

Chinese and pizza.

hey, we're celebrating.

aha.

besides, the Chinese

invented pasta,

you know.

right, and I'm sure

that means something.

ok.

the new rule:

from now on, our life

is our business,

our business

and nobody else's.

meaning?

meaning my family's

never been anything

but a big, big hassle,

and your family...

your family's

even worse.

oh, really?

ok.

"no family"

sounds like a good plan.

no anybody.

no Maggie. No ray.

no nobody but us.

if we have stuff

to talk about,

then we talk

to each other.

if we have a problem,

then we deal

with each other.

everyone else can mind

their own beeswax.

all right.

to the new plan.

the new plan.

pass the kung pao

and the pepperoni please.

thank you.

Bailey!

great!

how's my man?

led the pledge

allegiance today.

yeah?

didn't forget

any of it.

that's excellent.

how come you came

anyway, Bailey?

yeah.

good question.

didn't figure we'd

see you here today.

no, I know.

it's good,

'cause we need to talk

about the, uh...

(low)

testing and so forth.

you don't need

to lower your voice.

Owen and I have talked

about it already, right?

how the school thinks

his mind works differently

than other kids,

handles words and sounds

differently.

whoa, whoa.

wait a minute.

I've been away

a few days,

and you're deciding

that Owen's this

and he's that,

and you're talking

to him about it

without even me having

any idea what's up?

well, we can talk

about it, Charlie.

listen, Ms. lo

filled me in

this afternoon

on what she-

what she thinks,

the diagnosis

of a perfectly nice

22-year-old

with almost zero

teaching experience.

so, you're an expert now?

I don't have to be.

I'm his parent.

it's my responsibility.

Owen is

my responsibility.

well, maybe

he should be mine.

Look, I'm...

I'm not hearing this.

let's go, Owen.

come on.

you're gonna hear this,

Charlie.

Charlie, listen to me.

this-this l.D. That he has,

possibly dyslexia,

I may have had that

my whole life,

and I can help him

with it.

they're talking about

3 hours of work every night.

you know what?

I did it all this week,

Owen and me,

and it was great.

I want him, Charlie.

I want Owen

to come live with me,

and I want

to be in charge of him,

responsible from now on.

you can't be serious.

well, give me one reason

why not, why I can't be.

you were

baby-sitting him,

Bailey.

you had him

for a couple of days.

you don't think I'd know

if there was something

wrong with him, huh?

look, I'll take him in

for the testing now that

they think that-

no, but you won't

do what I would do.

you-

you have a baby,

and you've got Claudia,

and you've got

a job that doesn't pay

and nobody

to help you out,

so don't say

that you would do it,

that you'd sit with him

for the 3 hours,

because that's

what it takes.

you think

I can't do it?

I think

I can do it better.

and if you want

what's best for Owen,

then you

would admit that.

if I want what's best

for Owen?

who do you think

you are, man?

I want him, Charlie.

that's it.

I want him.
