Original subtitles

Mm-hmm.

Hmm.

[sighs]

HAYLEY: Busted.

Our new rule is no screens until after lunch.

I just had to make a business call.

Bill Hamilton, are you trying to play me?

[R & B playing]

-Hey. -Hey.

Your text was decidedly lacking in details.

Why are we meeting here and not your place?

I was in desperate need of caffeine,

and I still haven't figured out how to use

-that stupid French press. -[chuckles]

I got you one, too. You're gonna need it

for our strategy session.

What are we strategizing about?

Dad.

[sighs] What has he gotten himself into now?

A life-or-death situation.

? ?

[elevator bell dings]

[indistinct announcement over P.A.]

From that smile on your face,

I'm guessing you were texting with the Ab Tech.

I can't believe you're still calling him that.

Oh. Well, what would you like me to call him?

Well, I've started using... "boyfriend."

-[laughs softly] -Oh, it's like that now?

Most definitely.

Is it funny, this happening for us at the same time?

Grayson and I are officially a couple, and...

Ted and I are in love.

[both laugh]

[knocking on door]

Hey. Andre.

What's up?

Hey, sorry for bailing on our plans yesterday.

-Yeah. -Anita sent out a summons.

Hmm. What's wrong?

No, it's good news this time.

Yeah, she wanted the family to celebrate

finishing her first radiation treatment.

-Ah. I'm glad to hear it. -Yeah.

Yeah, I'm glad that you're taking being off

the Dupree family group chat so well.

Well, that's because I'm focusing on my future

-and not my past. -Uh-huh.

You're talking about Shanice?

-You know it. -[chuckles]

You know what?

You're gonna be the first to see what I have planned

for the woman I love.

[drawer slides open]

[drawer slides closed]

-[whistles softly] -Mm-hmm.

-Hey, little sis. -Hi.

I got to ask,

what exactly does a "bro brunch" entail?

I meant to type, "Bro, you want to brunch?"

-But hello, autocorrect. -[laughs softly]

I think we should keep the name, though.

Agreed. It has a certain Kat-like ring to it.

Especially when we're overdue for a catch-up.

We didn't really get a chance to connect

at Gran's impromptu party.

You found time to talk to Smitty, though.

Why did you and my husband

have your heads together last night anyway?

[laughs]

[moaning]

[gasps]

What are you doing?

Well, it sounded like I was hitting all the right spots.

Not you.

[Dani chuckles]

Oopsie. [laughs]

My bad.

Dani. Get out.

Well, I was nervous when you didn't answer your phone,

so I came over to investigate, and I am relieved and...

...quite impressed that you found

such a good reason to ignore me.

Dani.

Oh, gosh. My manners.

Hello, Kial.

-Good morning. -Uh, don't play her game.

-It's more like afternoon, actually. [laughs] -Yeah.

Go wait downstairs.

If you insist.

Oh, you mean now? Oh, okay.

Going. Right. Got it. Sorry, sorry.

[laughs]

I am sorry.

We were raised better than to invade like that.

Then again, Dani has always played by her own rules.

Don't be sorry. Dani's funny.

Never tell her that.

Part of this is your fault, you know?

If you didn't have me so distracted,

I would've heard my phone blowing up.

Well, that's high praise coming from such a focused lady.

Oh, I guess I forgot to charge my phone.

-It's completely dead. -So is my self-esteem.

Don't say that.

Even if it was charged,

I wouldn't have heard it over my delight

of your exquisite services.

And I look forward to testing that theory.

So, while you go talk to Dani, I'm gonna go take a shower.

Uh, what did Smitty tell you?

We were both too tired last night to get into it,

and he was out the door early this morning.

Well, I think you should talk to him first.

I don't want to risk my position as a source.

Oh, so it was about a story?

-Um... -[chuckles]

It's okay, I won't push.

Smitty and I have an understanding when it comes

to his assignments, and I intend to abide by it.

Yay. Understandings.

So? Is Tyrell excited to start classes at Banneker?

Anything I can get for his dorm room?

[laughs softly] I wish I knew.

He's been spending all of his time with his girlfriend,

and frankly, I think he'd be happy in an empty room

as long as it came with his chess board

and a picture of Jessica.

Ah. I remember those days.

Samantha, on the other hand...

Well, I'm guessing my niece has much more elaborate tastes.

Smitty caught her measuring Tyrell's room the other day.

-No, she wasn't. -Mm-hmm.

She wants to create a studio

just like the one her Aunt Kat has.

Well, can't she just use the guest room for that?

No, because "Tyrell's room is bigger,

and he won't need it."

We had to remind her that Tyrell isn't leaving home forever.

I mean, he'll come back for breaks.

Well, you'd better watch your daughter

'cause we both know,

when she gets her mind set on something,

there's no stopping her.

I wonder who that reminds me of.

Uh... Yeah. Mm-hmm.

[both laugh]

[sighs] Okay, so what's our plan of attack?

Straight ambush.

Bold but often effective.

I checked with Caroline and found out

that Dad is working from home today,

so I'll tug at his heartstrings and you hit him with the logic.

Like we did when we were teenagers and we convinced him

to let us go to that throwback Lil Jon concert?

-Exactly. -[chuckles]

We used our sister superpowers

and made it impossible for him to say no.

Okay. We're really gonna have to be on our "A" game now.

-I know. -The stakes are a lot higher

than a concert.

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

You are many things, babe,

but innocent is not one of them.

Yeah, I wish you couldn't read me so well.

[chuckles] Well, I mean, it goes both ways.

We have such a strong connection

that we could practically read each other's minds.

So tell me what's really going on.

Well, you remember my hand tremor the other night?

Yeah.

-Did it happen again? -Uh, no, no, no.

I'm-I'm fine, I'm all right. It's just...

[sighs] That one was, um...

that was the worst one yet.

Oh, no.

You know, I was thinking that maybe I should call Madison.

-What? -Bill.

Reaching out to Madison

will just be one big fat waste of time.

-Tell me how you really feel. -Hmm.

How would Miss Jackson put it?

What has Madison done for you lately?

Let me state the facts, Your Honor.

Proceed.

You've been under the hospital's watchful care,

and they couldn't figure out what's wrong with you.

They've given you batteries of tests.

All that poking and prodding

without any definitive diagnosis.

I believe the word was "inconclusive."

Which leads me to conclude,

as good as a doctor Madison is,

all her testing and speculation isn't getting us anywhere.

And when one approach fails,

it's only reasonable to pursue another.

Yeah. Eminently reasonable.

Plus, babe, look, you don't have the time

to continue all those tests.

You still have that Heywood deposition coming up.

Plus you never finished Madison's deposition with Mike.

I'm itching to lay into that bastard

and finish what I started.

Which is why you need to spend every available minute prepping.

Well, your point about the best use of my time

was well made, Counselor.

Your legendary legal prowess must have rubbed off on me.

Now, I've been working on something

that will keep you out of the doctor's office

-and the hospital. -Ah.

Well, the court is ready for your concluding argument.

-Okay... -CHELSEA: Hey, Dad?

Chelsea, Naomi. Hey.

[Chelsea sighs]

What are you doing here?

We're here to talk some sense into our father.

You need to book a follow-up appointment with Madison today.

I've been picked up that things were a little rocky

between you and Grayson.

I just didn't know what happened, though.

MAN [over P.A.]: Dr. Wright, dial 316.

[Ashley clears throat]

Okay, fine. Be like that.

But I'm-a find out the scoop one way or the other.

Trust and believe that.

There is no scoop.

Every relationship has a few bumps every now and then.

Oh, well, do you have anything

bumpy or grindy planned with Grayson after your shift?

-I'm heading over to his apartment. -Oh.

He's developing a new cocktail for Uptown.

One that combines both of our favorite flavors.

-Hmm. -I'm just trying to figure out what we can call it.

I'm thinking the Grayley,

the Ashson,

or the Grash.

I vote the first one.

The last two kind of sound like characters

from Carl Ivati books.

Hmm. You know, I never had you pegged as a romantasy fan.

Mm-hmm.

I was working an overnight shift one night,

and it was dead as a doorknob in here,

and there was a Carl Ivati book in the lost and found,

so I gave it a shot.

And it, uh, rocked your world?

[laughs]

The book was pretty tight.

I mean, it forced me to get the next installment

-from the library. -Hmm.

I don't know, I think romance, even the fantasy kind,

just hits a little different now that I'm in love again.

Well, you are in your love era.

You know, it's funny, I always wanted

to emulate your work ethic.

Now you're showing me to how to handle my love life, too.

It's like I said from the jump.

Always follow my lead, young grasshopper.

Yes, ma'am.

You know, I want to be just like you when I grow up.

Okay, don't get it twisted,

because I'm not even that much older than you.

Keep telling yourself that.

[both laugh]

Just how long do you plan on being in New York?

-[sighs] -The ball's gonna be dropping in Times Square

on New Year's before you're done with half of these things.

Yeah, I-I might've got a little carried away,

but this is the first trip

Shanice and I will be making together

and I-I wanted to make it memorable.

Yeah, but some of these things on this list,

Uncle Ted, come on.

W- Shanice likes tacky tourist things,

and what my lady wants...

She's definitely gonna get.

Yeah.

Why New York?

Well, I mean, it's an incredible city with a lot of energy,

and that's just how Shanice makes me feel.

Plus I know she's gonna like it.

Both of you do deserve a getaway.

-Mm. -I know it's been a lot.

-Yeah. -With the tornado.

Kat and Eva's medical procedures.

Don't I know it?

Can I offer you a little advice?

I'll cut the list down to make it more manageable.

Obviously.

But, no, I also want to pass along a tip

that I've learned from my travels with Dani.

-Take an extra suitcase. -Way ahead of you, neph.

Lest you forget, I spent a lot of years as a married man,

and these women...

-be shopping. -Be shopping.

[laughs softly]

-Hey! What... -And this is how I treat uninvited guests.

Of which I am neither.

Family has a standing invitation.

Which, clearly, you have abused.

Only because I thought my sister was in mortal danger.

Stop exaggerating. I just forgot to charge my phone.

And I don't know what could have distracted you from doing that.

Oh, wait. I don't have to imagine.

I got an eyeful.

You are back to being uninvited.

No! Okay, okay, I'll stop.

I will stop.

I'm happy for you, Sissy.

I'm happy for me, too.

And I cannot believe that you left that

alone and unattended in your bedroom.

He's in the shower. He's fine.

Wait, I already had the "What are your intentions

with my sister?" conversation with Carlton.

Do I need to go have them with sexy surgeon

while he's getting all hot and sudsy?

Because I will march up there right now and do it.

-And I thought you were done joking. -Who's joking?

I will march right up there and give him a piece of my mind

through all that steaminess.

[laughs]

Kial and I aren't at the "intentions" stage.

-Mm. -We're just still having fun.

I don't know if that's true.

Nicole, he bought a place,

and it seems his son is becoming a permanent fixture

-all around the DMV. -Oh.

Noah's choices have nothing to do with me.

But Kial's do.

Dr. Fly-By seems to be putting down roots.

Are you ready for his roots to get all tangled up with yours?

He is leasing the condo.

He didn't buy it, so no roots.

It's at Barrington Towers, isn't it?

Ten minutes from here?

It's close enough for a little root entangling,

among other things.

More like close to the hospitals and clinics that he works at.

He wanted to be free after his wife died.

That hasn't changed.

I can understand that.

Andre's emotional walls were sky-high after his parents died.

It's difficult to hear those stories.

Mm. That was a huge loss.

But then he fell in love.

How could he resist?

Thank you, but not the point.

The point is, those walls are capable

of coming down at any time.

I told you, after my divorce, I don't want to do love.

That was before you met Kial.

I guess I might- emphasis on "might"-

consider being exclusive with him someday,

but...

both Kial and I have our own reasons

not to say the "L" word anytime soon.

I didn't think it was possible after Bill either.

And then...

You unexpectedly fell in love with Andre.

That's right.

Ted's moved on.

Can you at least admit that you're open

to the possibility for yourself?

KIAL: Ladies.

I am headed to Garland. Do you want a ride?

No, thank you.

I'll be there later.

Good, then I don't have to wait too long to see you.

[Nicole chuckles]

Nice to see you, Dani.

Oh, it was nice to see you, too, Kial.

[sighs] You are so bad.

[Dani laughs]

Well, listen, I am gonna hang around until you shower

and get ready for work.

There was a reason I was trying to reach you all morning.

So what's up?

I need some advice.

And I need it today.

Since you're handing out advice, I need your take

on a specific item on the itinerary.

Okay. Ask away.

Well, I called in a favor

from one of my old med school buddies

who is now on the board of a museum.

He's giving me private access

to one of the smaller French galleries,

so I set up a private dinner for Shanice and me.

Yeah, so my uncle's poetic.

Surrounded by art...

-Mm-hmm. -...while dining.

-I like it. -Yeah, but the caterer

sent over a few sample menus, and I need help

choosing which champagne.

It's a 2018 Louis Broussard.

-Hmm. -You've bopped around France.

Have you heard of this vineyard?

TED: Dre. Dre.

-Hmm? -Where'd you go just then?

Uh, zoned out. My bad.

Well, I didn't mean to bore you.

Is something wrong?

Nah. No, nothing like that.

Let me, uh, let me see.

Yeah.

Hmm.

This one. The '24.

-Yeah. -Okay.

It's light and it has a sweetness

that I think Shanice would like.

Uh, thanks.

You sure there's nothing going on? You seem...

[phone chimes]

-Ah, I guess I'll let you get back to work. -Hold on,

-this'll just take a minute. -Really, Uncle Ted.

No, it...

Let me do this. You-you don't have a minute to spare?

Okay.

This was great, but I have to get to the hospital

to drop off a thank-you gift for Kial.

Thank you for what?

He helped Smitty when he hurt his ankle at the club.

Mm.

Kial's practically become a fixture at our family events.

Do you think we'll be getting a stepdad

for Christmas this year?

The way things are going,

we might be getting a stepmom, too.

Yeah, I heard Dad and Shanice used the "L" word.

How would you feel about our parents getting married again?

To other people, I mean.

I have mixed feelings, but...

of course, I want them both to be happy.

But...

A teeny-tiny part of you

hopes that they could be happy together?

Yeah.

Same.

Naomi, Chelsea, I really don't appreciate

the two of you barging into our home

whenever you feel like it.

I thought we were always welcome in our father's home.

-O-Of course you are. -Yes, of course.

But that still doesn't mean you can just storm in.

Chelsea said you've been dodging Madison's calls.

Yeah, Hayley and I were actually just talking about that.

Oh. I thought all Hayley cared about

-was her next spa treatment. -Hey.

I can't believe you're still throwing that in my face.

I only did that because your father insisted.

Yeah, it's true.

My overly concerned wife was hovering,

so I basically told her to go and give me some space.

Space? Dad, that's the last thing you need

-with your health risk. -But it isn't.

Okay? Look, and quite frankly,

no disrespect to your fianc�e, Chelsea,

but Hayley and I, we just feel that the time I'm spending

getting treatment is, I don't know,

it's just not productive.

Madison hasn't been able to come up with any real answers.

That's because Dad's condition is what they call

a "medical mystery," okay?

She just needs time to solve it.

HAYLEY: All right, your father is an important man.

He has much better things to do with his time than sit around

while Madison entertains fruitless investigation.

Dad.

Do you remember when I was working on that case

when I was a summer associate at the firm?

-Mm-hmm. The Hanley case. -Mm-hmm.

I was convinced it was unwinnable.

But you told me to review these cases

multiple times, over and over.

-You said... -"You never know the strength

"or weakness of your case until you know

the documents like the back of your hand."

And when I was reviewing them for what felt like

the hundredth time,

I found a key piece of evidence that I just missed.

Yeah, and we won that case, thanks to you and your research.

Which is why you need to let Madison do her research,

so she can figure out what's wrong with you.

Listen to me.

I feel fine.

Daddy.

-We're scared of losing you. -Okay, but you won't, sweetheart.

Okay? Listen, I'm telling all of you, there's nothing...

Can't you see that all you're doing

is causing your father more stress?

We're expressing our concerns.

Okay, and your concern is noted,

but your father will make his own decisions.

Dad, can we discuss this in private?

This is a matter for family only.

Which means you can go.

I will not be insulted or kicked out of my own home.

The only ones leaving are you two.

-Get out. -BILL: Hey- whoa.

You don't get to decide that.

Uh, tell her, Dad.

BILL: Listen,

before this escalates any further...

...I think you and Naomi should go.

You can't mean that.

You found your way in, you can find your way out.

That is not helping.

NAOMI: Dad.

Come on, you cannot be serious.

Wow.

This is low, Hayley, even for you.

-Hey, hold up. Hold the door. -Oh.

Hey. Just the man I was looking for.

I wanted to thank you for taking such good care of Smitty

after his injury.

KIAL: It's not necessary.

-Oh, no. This... -I insist.

This is... a ticket?

Two, actually. I know your son is in town,

and I thought you would appreciate

a Washington Nationals game.

-Mom says you're a big fan. -[chuckles]

Thank you.

And tell Smitty thank you as well.

Will do.

[elevator bell dings]

Hey, Ashley. Have you seen my father?

Uh, he was in his office earlier,

but I've been away from the station, so I don't know

-if he's still there. -Is Shanice around?

I need to go over the PT schedule with her.

SHANICE: Ask and ye shall receive.

I'm surprised to see you, Dr. Rollins.

I thought you had an early flight this morning.

I overslept. I rescheduled my appointments in Dallas.

Uh-huh.

I see Dr. Dupree hasn't picked up her review charts.

I could've sworn she told me she was gonna be in early

this morning.

Guess she overslept, too, huh?

Shanice, do not love-shame Dr. Rollins.

You're presuming Dr. Rollins and Dr. Dupree are in love.

Are you?

We have to keep this brief since I have to head to the hospital.

I will get right to it.

Naomi and I spoke about her decision

to have preventative surgery.

So how did it go?

Well, I think.

So what's the problem?

I am worried about future discussions

on this topic not going as well.

I desperately want to support my girl,

but I have lost count of the times

that my tongue has gotten in the way of good intentions

and I pop off without meaning to.

Nicole, I need you to put a blocker in my brain

so I don't risk hurting Naomi.

Ugh, if it was only as simple as downloading a program.

I suggest that you try a little mindful discernment.

And that is?

Before you blurt anything out to Naomi,

stop, take a deep breath.

If you think it's still gonna hurt her feelings

or cause tension, just keep your mouth shut.

It's okay to keep things inside in the heat of the moment.

Yeah, okay. I see.

For example, I have so much more to say

about walking in on you and Kial,

but I am going to put that mindful discernment

into practice and just go.

Very wise of you to choose silence,

like Daddy likes to say.

I am a quick study. [laughs]

Chels, we have got to figure out a way to get Dad

-to see Madison. -Well, I can't right now.

I told Kat I'd meet her here after brunch with Martin.

KAT: Oh! My favorite cousins.

-Hi. -Hey, Kat, how was brunch?

Just what the doctor ordered.

It's been too long since Martin and I

just had some time to sit and talk, you know?

What's wrong?

We just came from our dad's house.

We tried to convince him to see Madison for a checkup,

but his wife had other ideas.

Which is no surprise.

This isn't Hayley's first time playing games with Dad's health.

So Dad was choking,

and Hayley was doing what?

Just standing there, watching.

I mean, if I didn't walk in when I did...

I'm not one to make excuses for the stepmonster,

but what if she just froze?

Yeah, she claimed that's what happened.

So, I've never mentioned this, but the more I see

the way Hayley's dealing with Dad's health issues...

-Or rather, not dealing. -CHELSEA: That part.

I'm just reevaluating everything,

and it's all seeming to be...

Sketch as hell?

And he let her kick you out?

It's like that whole facial incident.

You know, Mom would never leave his side,

no matter what he said.

I think I'm starting to let my emotions rule

where Hayley's concerned.

Like you said, I need to use logic,

especially when it comes to her.

Which means what?

Well, I-I can read people pretty well.

Like, I can tell when witnesses or my clients are being open

or when they're trying to manipulate me.

You said before that Hayley was manipulative,

even before she and Dad got together.

I'm convinced that she used our friendship

to get info on the cracks in Dad's marriage.

When I thought we were friends,

I shared a lot of personal stuff with her,

and she used that information to her advantage.

This is starting to sound like those stories from my podcasts.

Wife gets bored, wife feels neglected...

wife kills husband.

Do you think she could want to be a black widow?

Hayley's annoying, but she's not giving homicide.

She's definitely a liar.

I know that for a fact.

You guys, Hayley faked her ultrasound.

[scoffs] And you're just mentioning this now?

-Does Dad know? -No, I didn't tell him.

I didn't tell anyone because,

like a fool, I bought her sob story.

She claimed that she was too scared

to let the doctors do a real one,

so she printed one off for Dad's sake.

KAT: Are you serious?

Was she even pregnant?

I mean, she acted so upset,

like I didn't see that it could be fake,

but it's just one more incident that makes me doubt

that Hayley has Dad's best interests in mind.

Relax.

Thanks, babe.

I noticed you're still wearing your fitness ring,

so I checked the app.

Well, whatever happened to "no screens until after lunch"?

[chuckles]

I'm glad to see that beautiful smile of yours,

especially after the morning you've had.

I'd like the opportunity to rebut, Your Honor.

Oh.

Rebut what?

The opposition's argument that you need additional testing.

I looked at your stats, and they look perfectly fine.

Until Naomi and Chelsea barged in

and started bullying you.

They were just expressing their concern, honey, all right?

I was actually thinking about reaching out to Madison myself.

Which the app proves is unnecessary

since you were fine when it was just the two of us.

The facts state that you are just overworked, stressed

and plain worn out.

And that last one was on me.

I just can't keep my hands and other body parts

off my handsome hubby.

Well, you'll get no objection from me.

[laughs]

[sighs]

Seriously, it doesn't take a neurologist to realize

that your symptoms are worse when you're stressed.

So, starting today, I am declaring

an official relaxation zone around you.

Hmm.

Well, you do remember that I'm

a high-powered attorney with a firm to run

and a family that's all in my business, right?

Yeah.

Which is why I want to make you disappear.

[Hayley chuckles]

Nicole and I have a "no label" rule.

[indistinct announcement over P.A.]

Dad, I was looking for you.

Let's go grab coffee.

Shanice, PT schedule.

Of course.

[sputters]

Well, you never know what you're gonna overhear

in the nurses' station.

Listen, I'm a big Shanice-Ted stan.

-Mm-hmm. -They make each other

what my mom would call "sappy happy."

Ah, but they're not the only ones wearing big, goofy grins.

You had one last night, too, after telling me that Grayson

is back in the picture.

And look, you're still cheesing today.

I can't help it.

Every time I think of Grayson, I smile.

Yeah, well, he's a lucky guy.

Make sure he's treating you right.

And if he doesn't, I, as your friend,

am obliged to beat his butt.

Oh, yeah? [laughs]

Listen, I'm just glad

that after everything that went down last year,

you and I can still be buds.

Always.

Dani is one lucky lady.

Nah, I'm the lucky one.

That woman lights up my world.

And you deserve every bit of it.

TED: What is it, Martin?

You okay?

Why wouldn't I be?

Hearing one of the men Mom's been seeing

talk about love can't be easy.

Ah, Kial never used the word specifically.

Interesting how that tidbit registered with you.

Don't read too much into it.

I am happy with Shanice.

Your mother and I are just friends.

Martin had to go.

He got a call from his campaign manager.

Andre, thanks again for your suggestions for our trip.

Don't mention it.

Oh, Andre got a sneak peek

at our itinerary, and I didn't?

Andre doesn't need to be surprised.

Oh, neither do I.

Okay, one crumb, which is also a clue.

Fine. You dragged it out of me.

I've arranged an afternoon of feeding pigeons in Central Park.

Don't-don't play with me.

New York birds are totally different from the DMV.

You might actually get along with them.

You're lucky I love you, because I wouldn't put up

with this nonsense from anybody else.

Did everyone hear that? Nurse Johnson loves me.

Oh, will you hush?

Oh, y-you can't take it back. It's a matter of public record.

Breaking news, Ted.

Everybody at Garland already knows

that Shanice is in love with you and you love her.

And they are thrilled for the both of you.

-Mm. -And I second that.

-And I third it. -TED: Mm.

[gasps] Oh.

I'd give you a proper kiss, but, uh, I think us

getting caught in the act once today was enough.

I don't mind getting caught.

Again.

Oh, you want another kiss?

Maybe when we have a little bit more privacy.

Oh, is that why you sent me a request for your calendar?

So that we could plan our privacy?

I thought it might help you keep track of my comings and goings,

but if it is a little too much...

WOMAN [over P.A.]: Dr. Roberts to Bed 391.

-[phone chimes] -Invitation accepted.

I want us to go to St. Bart's.

You can rest and recharge

away from all the drama here in the DMV.

Hmm. As tempting as that is,

I don't know, I-I don't think I can take the time off.

I checked your schedule. You can this week.

No court dates, no motion return dates,

and Tomas can handle anything else that might come up

when he gets back to town.

Mm, I don't know.

Babe...

I'm convinced that a quiet little getaway

will cure whatever is going on with you.

And if at the end of the week you're still having symptoms,

I will call Madison and book an appointment for you myself.

Okay? And you know what?

If you have to go to the hospital when we get back,

I will support you to stay until we get all the answers,

no matter how long it takes.

And, you know, I suppose we could

skip St. Bart's altogether

and go to Garland for testing now,

but I can tell just even mentioning the hospital

adds to your stress.

Yeah, agreed.

Okay, yeah. Yeah.

-Let's give your cure a try. -[squeals excitedly]

I'm gonna take such good care of you

-in St. Bart's. -Mm.

-[laughs] -Yeah.

Well, you got your sugar,

and now it's time for you to get your medicine.

Okay.

What does that mean?

We need to talk.

About?

The way you treated my daughters earlier.

So I think being married to Dad

hasn't been the fairy tale that Hayley's wanted.

She wants to be the center of his universe.

But Mom is the star that keeps Dad in her orbit.

And Hayley's realizing that.

And like all the other women Dad has had flings with,

her time is bound to flame out.

Anyone with eyes can see that Mom and Dad have

a deep, strong, undeniable connection.

Yeah, and Hayley could be feeling threatened.

Which could be making her territorial.

She wants to position herself

as the most important person in his life,

isolate him, which is the worst possible thing for his health.

This is way too much to keep track of.

What are you doing?

Pulling up my evidence app.

It's a godsend when it comes to organizing.

For when we present our case.

There is no case, and this isn't going on a podcast.

Not yet, sure.

The problem is, we don't have enough concrete evidence

that Hayley's trying to hurt Dad.

If she were having an affair or something,

we could try to catch her in the act.

Well, maybe she is.

We all know she has a wandering eye.

And Madison and I caught her at Uptown

having an intense conversation with some guy.

Well, that tells me nothing.

Well, even if it is the same person

that helped her during her miscarriage?

What is it? Um... Sammy.

Yes. Sammy the Good Samaritan.

Or Sammy the Side Piece.

Y'all are gonna have to come up with a new nickname

because according to Vanessa, Sammy's real name is Randy.

Why are you talking about that guy anyway?

Well, actually, we're talking about Hayley.

Yeah, and how shady she is.

What has that hobbit-sized harlot done now?

Most recently, she kicked Chelsea and Naomi out

of their dad's house.

And where was Bill when this was happening?

Standing right beside his wife.

Oh, hell no.

That man has lost his entire damn mind.
