Previously on "God Friended Me"...

When Arthur agreed to become
bishop, he made his choice.

If Dad believes he can
find that balance,

doesn't he deserve the
chance to prove that to you?

We're soul mates.

I wish I believed in soul mates,

'cause then I'd know this
wouldn't really be over.

Adam wants to team up on this story

about some potential
Wall Street scandal?

I traced those dummy emails

you wanted me to look at for your story.

They're all registered to the
same guy, Jonathan Carter.

The God Account wanted
Cara and I to find each other.

How do you know it wasn't to test you,

to make sure you would sacrifice love

- to prove your worth?
- I would choose Cara.

I don't think that the God Account

is gonna give you that choice.

♪ I woke up early in the morning ♪

♪ Just to feel the light of day ♪

All right, now that you are
the bishop of New York,

do not expect me to go easy on you,

because that, uh, purple
shirt is not gonna save you.

Oho, wait, did I just take
the bishop from bishop?

[LAUGHS] Okay, I see how it is.

But I'm gonna let you have that one

as a thank you for last week.

I know that you're the...

big reason that Trish
came to my consecration.

No, you are the reason she came.

I just reminded her of that.

Well, it was appreciated.

Ooh, speaking of the
church, how's it going?

Actually, I have my first Council
of Bishops meeting tomorrow.

Very "Game of Thrones." You ready?

You better believe it. Aha!

How 'bout you, things good?

Yeah, uh, Cara and I

are having dinner with
her family tonight.

- Uh-huh.
- Finally get to meet her stepdad Paul.

She's talked a lot about him
since she's moved in with him.

- Sounds like a great guy.
- I'm sure he is.

Something else on your mind?

You know how I told you about Gideon?

Sure, he was Friended by
the God Account before you.

And before he quit,
it sent him a message

about what he'd have to sacrifice

if he was to continue
with the God Account.

It said he'd have to give up love.

- I see.
- He chose to walk away.

And you're wondering if
you could do the same.

No, no, I would. I would choose Cara...

But Gideon believes the God Account

is gonna make that choice for me.

What does Cara have to say?

She doesn't know.

You know, when God ordered Abraham

to sacrifice his only son, Isaac,

it didn't end with his son's death.

It was a test to see

what Abraham was willing to sacrifice.

Yeah, but this isn't God, Dad.

No, but maybe the idea of giving up love

is whoever's behind the God
Account's version of a test.

Jaya and I broke up. How

Try not to think about it.

Yeah, throw yourself into your work.

That's a good plan. So
what are you working on?

Ah, my department has a presentation

with the president of

We're gonna unveil some
pretty cutting edge apps.

- She's gonna love them.
- Yeah, that's great.

Okay, I'll just get that info

Right, so I found the Jonathan Carter

behind the dummy emails you sent me.

Rakesh, that's huge.

That's the break we've been
waiting for. Who is he?

He is a Wall Street trader...

And from the looks of his lifestyle,

a pretty successful one.

Yeah, well, if Adam and I are right,

it's because he's trading
on insider information.

I just need to figure out where
he's getting that information from

- and then we can run the story.
- [CELL PHONE CHIMES]

Oh, I'm sorry, Cara, the
presentation's in five minutes.

I need to visualize before I go in.

- Oh, okay.

Yes.

- Hey.

Miles, you wanna see a video
of my game-winning shot

from last week? It's on my Insta-story.

All right, let's let
Miles get settled first.

[WHISPERS] I can't wait.

I was helping my mom put the
finishing touches on dinner.

And Liv's helping by posting
photos of it online.

I'm capturing memories.
You'll thank me later.

I'll be right back.

Oh, Cara said you're a big Yankees fan.

Born and raised. Wait.

This is Game 7 of the 2003
American League Championship.

I remember watching this with my dad.

That's when Boone hit the
walk-off at the bottom

of the 11th to send the
Yankees to the Series.

- I about lost my mind.
- Was even better in person.

- Wait, you... you were there?
- Mm-hmm.

- How'd you get tickets?
- Oh, I didn't need them.

When I first got out of business school,

Susan and I were barely getting
by, and I took a job working

nights and weekends as
an usher at the stadium.

Promised myself one day

that I would buy season tickets,

maybe even a luxury box if
I was really dreaming big.

- Uh-huh.
- Dinner's ready.

Come on.

So what, did you ever
get those box seats?

No.

But I found something even better.

My dad's a pilot. He has his own plane.

It's a little Beechcraft.
I have a client

He got me a pretty good deal.

Paul's a financial planner.

I mean, it must be a lot of pressure.

No, it can be. My

this happy family I get

Okay, so who's it for?

I just kept catching myself
looking over at Paul,

wondering what could possibly be wrong.

I mean, I've been living
with him for months,

and all I've noticed is
that he's a great husband

and an amazing dad.

- What am I missing?
- Nothing.

- [SIGHS]

Just because the God
Account sent us his name,

doesn't change who he is,

unless we could fix whatever's wrong.

We just gotta figure out what that is.

Yeah, you're right.

So where do we start?

We need to be honest with him.

Like you said, it's family.

Yeah.

Rakesh, you've been sitting
here for a half an hour

and you haven't said a word.

Look, I'm willing to give you
your post-breakup space,

I'm sorry, it's actually not Jaya.

It's work.

Okay, what's going on?

Well, I presented the apps my

And I'm guessing it didn't
go as well as you hoped.

No, look, I thought we had
some pretty good ideas,

but when she started
asking me questions,

I realized she just thought
they were uninspired.

Are you sure? I mean, did she say...

"Uninspired"? Yeah.

She said she expected

more outside of the box
thinking from her head of R&D.

I'm sorry, Rakesh.

I've been there.

I'm still there.

What are you gonna do?

I don't know.

It's like everything I care about

is imploding all at once.

"Don't worry about it, Rakesh.

"Everything's gonna be okay, Rakesh.

You are a genius programmer, Rakesh."

I don't know who you're impersonating,

but she sounds brilliant.

- Are you gonna help me?
- There's nothing to help with.

You are a brilliant programmer

In the next 48 hours?

Because that's how long she's given me,

and I don't know if I can pull it off

when most of my brain
power is being used to

not think about Jaya breaking my heart.

Sometimes heartache can
be a great inspiration.

Maybe start there.

I doubt that, but you're
going to get it...

starting with the fact that you
don't have enough money to pay

Yeah, we know it's a lot to take in.

Yeah, I mean you guys were
here last night for dinner

Got to admit the timing
seems a little suspicious.

That's how it works sometimes,

so whoever is behind the God Account

knows who I come in contact with.

Yeah, but how do they know
what's going on in my life?

How do they know there's
even a problem to fix?

Hey, um, we're not sure,
but what we do know

is that the God Account is never wrong.

But if there's something you
can tell us, it might help.

Honestly, I can't think of anything.

I mean, I'm almost
embarrassed to say it,

but our lives are really great.
Everybody's healthy.

Paul's business is doing great.

We're good.

Actually, that... that
isn't entirely true.

For the last few months, things
have been a little rocky at work.

What are you talking about?

Market's been struggling,

and my clients have
taken a bit of a hit.

All the financial planners
I know are feeling it.

Why didn't you tell me?

'Cause I didn't want you to worry.

Everything's gonna be fine.

There's a reason my clients

I always come through for them.

Okay, but from now on,

You and I are in this together.

You guys mind if I wrap it up?

I have a meeting to go to.

But if I think of anything,
I'll let you know.

If Paul is having trouble at work,

then that's probably
the best place to start.

What? You mean having Rakesh

dig into my stepfather's business?

Hey, you know how this works.

Friend Suggestions tend
to hold things back.

Yeah, I know, but...

this is my family, Miles.

I'm not saying that

how to help Paul. Of course we should.

But I have to do this my way. Okay?

I know how much you've
sacrificed for us,

so it's important for me to
find ways to show you that,

to show you that I can
find balance in my life.

I really appreciate that.

So how did your meeting with
the Bishops Council go today?

I knew that there would
be politics involved,

but I thought that they would give me

a grace period, you know?

Let me get my feet wet,

but I was met with some...

unexpected pushback.

What, the council didn't
like your proposals?

Actually, just one
member in particular...

Reverend Elias...

who was not quiet about
sharing his displeasures.

- Well, can you talk to him?
- I can and I will.

But you know what, um,
this lunch is about us, so...

what's going on with you?

Well, I started playing piano again.

In fact, I'm thinking about
getting back up onstage.

Oh, see, now that's great.

And the moment that happens,

I will be right there in the front row.

[LAUGHS]

Adam, hey, I'm almost
at the coffee shop.

As soon as I confirm Jonathan
Carter's meeting with someone,

I'll try and get a name.

Maybe they'd be willing to go on record.

I'll call you back.

Miles?

What's going on? What
are you doing here?

Paul?

I know you told me to stay out of this,

but after Paul left the
brownstone and jumped into a cab,

I thought I might as well check it out.

What is it? Do you know that guy?

Yeah, I do.

That's Jonathan Carter.

Wait, the guy you're
writing your story about?

Yeah, that's why I'm here.

Adam brought a tip that he was
meeting with someone else

involved with insider trading.

Now we know why the God
Account sent us Paul's name.

Paul.

Cara? Miles?

What are you doing here?

That man you were meeting
with... Jonathan Carter...

how well do you know him?

Not well at all, why?

Because he's involved
in insider trading.

How do you know that?

Because I'm working on a
story about him at Catapult.

I got a tip that he was
meeting with someone

who was also involved.

Please tell me that's not you.

We should talk.

You asked to see me, Bishop Finer.

Oh, please, come in.

I, uh, wanted a chance for us
to chat outside of the council.

I know we started off on the wrong foot,

and I wanted to clear the air.

Perhaps I can walk you through
my proposals for the budget,

and we can address whatever
concerns that you may have.

My only concern is for the
integrity of the church,

which is why I didn't vote
for you in the election,

nor did I confirm your appointment.

Sorry to hear that. May I ask why?

Your son is an outspoken critic of God.

You legitimized him by being
a guest on his podcast...

He's my son. I won't apologize

for speaking with him
in public or in private.

- Then there's your daughter.
- I beg your pardon?

She left Harlem Episcopal...
your church...

to join an organization that
isn't even affiliated with us.

And then there's the woman
that you're currently living with

outside of wedlock.

I have no idea whether
she even attends church.

So your objections to my
proposals are personal,

not political.

If you truly love this church,

you'll consider stepping down,

and let someone with more
traditional values step in.

Good day, Bishop Finer.

What Jonathan's doing is
technically not illegal.

What does "technically
not illegal" mean?

There's a fine line between

insider information you obtain illegally

and information you just
happen to come across

which anyone is free to use.

And where Jonathan gets his information

falls on the right side of that line.

Okay, so where is Jonathan
getting his information from?

He's got this friend

who chauffeurs half the
CEOs in New York around.

And sometimes he overhears something

and passes it on.

But it's why I met with him today.

I need one of those tips.

Things are worse than I let
on at the house with Susan.

- What do you mean?
- I've made some risky trades,

and now I'm looking at
losses that I can't cover.

If I don't fix this, I'm
gonna lose everything.

And not just for me, for my clients too.

I have to make it right.

Okay, look, if you say it's legal,

then it's legal.

We're family. I trust you.

Thank you, Cara.

I'll see you at home later?

I'm not so sure about this.

Okay, look, he said
it's not insider trading.

Yeah, but you have proof.

Okay, you're writing a story about it.

Adam never had proof, okay? He had...

a theory based on a few e-mails.

Cara, you're gonna kill this story?

There is no story. We were wrong...

The God Account wouldn't have sent us

Paul's name if that were true.

Look, this isn't about the God Account.

This is about my family.

And if you can't get on board with that,

then I'm just gonna need to
handle things on my own.

Look, Miles, just please stay out of it.

[BELLS CHIMING]

- Hey.
- Hey, what are you doing here?

- Miles called me.
- Oh.

- Said he needed to talk.
- Oh.

You okay?

I have just come from a
meeting with Reverend Elias,

and it did not go well.

What, is he still concerned
about your agenda?

Not my agenda. With me personally.

Well what does that mean?

Uh, you know what? Um, it'll be fine.

I'll figure it out.

Hey, thanks for meeting me.

Of course. What's on your mind?

- My latest Friend Suggestion.
- Okay.

Cara's stepdad.

I see.

Have you figured out what's wrong?

Yes. He's in financial trouble,

and I'm pretty sure he's about
to do something illegal.

- Like what?
- He has a friend

who's been getting stock tips

from a chauffeur who drives CEOs around.

Now he's claiming it's
not insider trading

'cause it's just something
the guy overheard.

Miles, my first husband was in finance.

If the tips the chauffeur is sharing

is information that is not
available to the public,

it is definitely insider trading.

- There is no gray area to it.
- What does Cara have to say?

She wants to believe her stepdad,

and told me to stay out of it.

It's hard to see clearly
when it comes to family.

I mean, people want to believe the best,

but if the God Account
sent you his name,

don't you have to help
him like you would

any other Friend Suggestion?

But this isn't like any other.

If I stop Paul from doing this,

I'm choosing the God Account over Cara.

And what if that costs
me my relationship?

That's exactly what
Gideon said would happen.

I can't risk that.

Look, you know what the
right decision is here.

You're just hoping not
to have to make it,

but you do.

The God Account brought
you and Cara together.

After all this time, you really
think it's gonna take her away

from you for doing what's right?

- No, no, I don't.
- Then you have your answer.

The only question is: do you
have a way to help Paul?

Yeah.

Hey, did the Jonathan
Carter lead pan out?

Uh, it was a dead end. He showed up,

- but didn't meet with anyone.
- It's okay, we don't need it.

- We have enough to publish.
- Uh, no, no, we don't.

Yeah, we do.

I got an anonymous tip
about a chauffeur with ties

to both Jonathan Carter
and six Fortune 500 CEOs.

I tracked him down. Guy is
ground zero for the leaks.

Got him to go on record.

We're good.

You got this from an anonymous tip?

Yeah, what's wrong?

[KNOCK AT DOOR]

You gave Adam what he
needed to run the story.

Why would you do that?

Look, I know you are upset,

but publishing the story
puts Jonathan Carter

under a microscope.

He won't make any trades now,

which means we have taken
that option from Paul.

Yeah, but you also took
away the only option he had

to give his clients their money back.

How is he supposed to
make this right now?

Look, all I know is that
he wasn't gonna be able

to make right by anyone
if he ended up in prison.

You know, when you got
a Friend Suggestion

for your Uncle Terrance and
this was about your family,

you gave him the benefit of the doubt.

But when it comes to my family,

you can't give me the
same consideration?

I gave Uncle T the benefit of
the doubt, and because of that,

I almost wasn't able to help him.

Okay, so what, Miles? What?

You... you go behind my back,

you make a decision that you
know I would be against,

a decision that I asked
you not to make...

I know, and I'm sorry, okay?

But the God Account sent us Paul's name,

which means we could fix this.

You know, for a non-believer,

you certainly follow the
God Account blindly.

And you know what, Miles? I hope...

I hope that you are right,
because if you're wrong,

it is my family that is
gonna pay the price.

Let me get this straight.
You blew the whistle

on insider trading, and
Cara gets the byline?

Wow, that's gotta be a first, bro.

- Not helping, Rakesh.
- I'm sorry, Miles,

it's just my girlfriend
broke up with me,

and I've lost my mojo at work,

and I'm putting my career
in jeopardy, and somehow,

you still found yourself
in a worse position, so...

thank you for cheering me up.

Can we focus?

The article has gone viral,

the SCC has opened an investigation

into Jonathan Carter,

and I still have to figure
out how to help Paul.

Right, yeah. You do that,
Cara forgives you,

everything goes back to normal.

- So what's the plan?
- I don't know.

[PHONE CHIMES AND VIBRATES]

_

Wait, the God Account just invited me

to join a group called "Storm Chasers."

Okay, that is extremely weird,

but, Miles, this is
the God Account's way

of telling you you can still fix this.

Yeah, you're right... I'm gonna
talk to Paul about the group.

In the meantime, can you look into it?

Yeah, no problem.

- Hey.
- Hey.

I waited up for you last night.

I wanted to warn you about the article.

- Have you seen it?
- Kind of hard not to.

Look, there was nothing
I could do to stop it.

I saw Jonathan Carter
is under investigation.

Is everything gonna be all right?

[SIGHS] I don't see how.

Look, I know you think
that I dodged a bullet

by not getting more involved
with Jonathan Carter.

Maybe I did, but that's a
bullet I would've risked taking

for my clients and my family.

But now I have no way to fix this.

Hey.

Look, we'll figure something out.

Have you talked to my
mom about this yet?

No.

I gotta go to the office.

I'll talk to her tonight.

Yeah, okay. Um...

I'm so sorry.

I really am.

Look, having you here
has meant everything

to Susan and Liv.

And me too.

Hey, Ali. Hey, I got your message.

What's going on?

So I spoke to Dad.

Remember when he told us
yesterday that Reverend Elias

had a problem with him personally?

I do.

Well, apparently, he's
quite the traditionalist,

so much so that having an outspoken son,

a gay daughter,

a woman he lives with out of wedlock,

is grounds for stonewalling
any agenda he has.

I take it he didn't end
up sharing this with you.

No.

Did Arthur say what he's gonna
do about Reverend Elias?

As bishop, he can replace any
council member he wants,

which is exactly what I told him to do,

but you know Dad.

He loves the high road.
He wouldn't listen to me.

- Ali, thank you.
- Yeah.

I'm gonna take it from here.

What are you gonna do?

Remind Arthur Finer that he
is the bishop of New York.

[KNOCK AT DOOR]

Miles, I...

I know I am not your
favorite person right now,

and when this is all over,

I owe you an apology

and a long conversation,

but right now,

we need to figure out a
way to help Paul together.

The God Account sent me an invitation

to join some group about storm chasers,

and I was wondering if Paul
knew what that was about.

Well, he's not here. He's at his office.

Cara, Miles, what's going on?

Look, I need to tell you
something about Paul.

What?

You found something out, didn't you?

Yeah, look, things at work

are a lot worse than he was letting on.

He's been trying to figure
out a way to fix it,

but as a result, he almost
got mixed up with this guy

- named Jonathan Carter.
- What do you mean "mixed up"?

Paul's known Jonathan

since they went to
business school together.

Paul said they barely knew each other.

Is this the same Jonathan Carter?

Yes, they've been friends for 20 years.

They go to Lake Ontario every
summer on a fishing trip.

Paul and Jonathan are friends.

- Which means...
- What?

Wait, this article says
Jonathan's involved

in insider trading.
You think Paul is too?

Yeah, and the investigation

into Jonathan could lead back to him.

[KNOCK AT DOOR]

Mrs. Levine? FBI Agent Rogers.

Is your husband home?

No, sorry He's at work.

I'm afraid he isn't.

We have a warrant to
search the premises.

May I?

Start with the cabinets.

Look, Mom, it's gonna be okay.

We just... we need to find Paul.

[PHONE VIBRATES]

[WHISPERS] It's Paul.

He's at his lawyers,

and he wants me to
come there right away.

Okay, you go. I'll stay here.

Liv's gonna be here in a few hours.

You told me this was gonna be okay...

No, it has to be.

The God Account wouldn't have
invited me into some group

unless it was trying to
show me how to help Paul.

I just haven't figured
out what that means yet.

Look around, Miles.

I don't see the God
Account helping anyone.

[PHONE BUZZES]

It's Rakesh; he's been
looking into the group.

Hey, Rakesh, please tell
me you found something.

Storm Chasers are a bunch of pilots.

Paul's a part of the group. In fact,

he was on a thread this morning

asking people about a storm
front that could possibly hit

the Canadian border.

Susan said that Jonathan
and Paul take fishing trips

at Lake Ontario during the summer.

Thanks, Rakesh.

Paul's not planning on
turning himself in.

No, he's gonna run.

- Paul.
- How did you find me?

- You can't do this...
- It's the only way.

I'm gonna fly to Canada,
and from there I'll disappear.

No, if you run, there's no coming back.

- Think about Susan and Liv...
- That is all I'm thinking about.

I'm doing this for them. I'm
doing this to protect them.

This is the only way to make
sure that they're taken care of.

- What do you mean?
- Jonathan came to me

six months ago. He told
me about the chauffeur,

and I knew the risks,
I knew it was wrong,

but I told myself just this once

I'm gonna set aside some
real money for the future.

For Susan and Liv...

So then why go back to
Jonathan a second time?

'Cause that was the only way
to make my clients whole

- after losing their money.
- If you only made the one trade,

then maybe you could cut a deal.

Maybe that's the right thing to do,

but I gotta do what's
right for my family.

I set up the money in an
offshore account to protect it.

That money's there to ensure
that Susan and Liv will be okay.

My lawyer's explaining to Susan
right now how that'll work.

If I cut a deal,

then I gotta give all that up,
and they will have nothing.

No, they'd have you.

Do you really think Liv would
rather have a bank account

- than her father?
- When she can pay for college?

A house? A life?

I have to trust that
someday she'd understand.

Well, trust me, she won't.

Susan left when I was a kid,

and she thought she was
doing the right thing,

but all I remember is that she was gone.

You know, she... she wasn't there
for my track meets or prom

or when I went off to college.

And I would trade any amount
of money to change that.

If you do this,

the only thing Liv will understand

is that you left her.

I'm begging you, don't put
her through that, please.

- Yes, sweetie, I am.

Mr. Levine, we'll give
you a few minutes.

Your lawyer told me what
you were planning to do.

I know. I thought it was the
only way to protect you two.

I told you...

I don't need protecting.

You should have come to me.

You should have told me.

I know.

I was ashamed, and...

And I...

I know I let everyone down,

but I have a way to make it right,

or at least try to.

My lawyer spoke with the US Attorney.

In exchange for my testimony
against Jonathan,

they're gonna let me use some
of the money that I made

to pay back my clients.

Hopefully after I serve my
sentence, I can start over.

I'm not afraid to do that.

I'm only afraid to do
it without you and Liv.

What happened, Miles?

I know how the God Account works.

They always have a happy ending.

So where's ours?

I don't know.

Trish, what are you doing here?

- Can we talk?
- What's going on?

Ali told me about Reverend Elias.

Oh.

I know that you are trying to
keep your worlds separate,

but this isn't what I want.

Okay, um, what do you want?

I have been so worried about
losing you to the church.

I never thought about
becoming a part of it...

a part of your life as bishop.

Hmm.

Well, I could use a chief of staff.

[LAUGHTER]

Maybe a little less a
part of it than that,

but I am here to give you some advice.

Of course.

That man is not just
attacking your family.

He is attacking your
vision for the church.

I understand that, but I
still have to find a way

to work with him.

Yesterday, you told Miles

that he knew what the
right decision was,

even if he didn't want to make it.

Mm-hmm. What's your point?

I just thought that was
really good advice.

Hmm.

Good afternoon, everyone.

Before we get started, I, um...

I'd like to make a
change to the council.

Reverend Elias,

your services are no longer needed.

- You can't do that.
- Actually, he can.

And I support his decision.

Shall we get started?

♪ I've been sitting here believing ♪

You two are quite the pair.

I assume inspiration
still hasn't struck?

Not unless you think
binge-watching Netflix alone

in the dark can make a good app.

And what about you?
Have you talked to Cara?

No. No, I texted her,

but I haven't heard anything back.

Okay, okay, you know
what? Enough is enough.

You either fight to get
Jaya back or move on,

because this... this isn't working...

Ali, I did fight for her, okay?

I tried to explain to her

that we're soul mates,
but she didn't believe me.

So unless you have some magical
way to prove that I am...

Rakesh, you know you
stopped talking, right?

[WHISPERS] Wait, that's it.

A synaptic algorithm

combined with predictive analytics,

could search the entire Internet

to create a true digital profile

of users for a single unified purpose.

And the purpose would be...

To find your soul mate.

If I can do that...

if I can just prove to Jaya
that we belong together,

that soul mates are real...

I could win her back.

And save your job in the process.

That too. I gotta go to work.

I gotta go to work.

It's time to fight for the woman I love.

Sounds like some good advice.
