I can do this.

I'm strong. (EXHALES)

MEETING LEADER: Thank you for sharing, Cheryl.

(CHERYL CRYING)

MEETING LEADER: This can be so challenging.

Especially for parents like us

who spend more time with their children than most.

But if I remember correctly,

there's actually one other parent here

going through the same thing.

Diane?

How do you feel?

How do I feel about...

Chloe's going to college in a few months.

How do you feel?

Good.

MEETING LEADER: Good?

Come on, Diane. You can be honest with us.

Okay.

Uh, first of all, we haven't heard back yet from colleges,

so nothing's confirmed.

But as far as how I feel?

I've been taking care of Chloe for 17 years

and in all that time, I haven't traveled,

gone out, or dated.

And she's going somewhere where she gets to do

all of that and more.

So, yeah, I feel goddamn great.

(MAN COUGHS)

But what about...

I mean, Chloe is...

Smart?

Brave?

Faced more emotional and physical challenges

from the moment she was born than most adults ever will?

Chloe is the most capable person I know.

If there's someone to not worry about,

it's her.

I adjust your dinner so you can have some.

Oh, my goodness. Chloe, are you okay?

Yeah, totally fine.

Actually, I'm dealing with a tiny emergency

right now and I could use your help.

MRS. BATES: Of course, honey. What do you need?

What's the name of this pill?

What?

My mom came here last week. She got these pills.

I need to know the name of the medication.

‐MRS. BATES: That's all you need to know? ‐Yes.

MRS. BATES: Next time, you wait your turn, okay?

Yes, Mrs. Bates.

MRS. BATES: It shouldn't be too hard though,

as long as it's under your name.

They're under my mom's.

I'm sorry, Chloe.

But if they're under Diane's name,

‐I really can't help you. ‐Why?

MRS. BATES: Because it's confidential, meaning...

I know what confidential means, Mrs. Bates!

(DOOR DINGS)

I'm confused though, sweetheart.

Tell me again, why can't you ask your mom

about these pills?

Honey?

It's a game.

A game?

What kind of game?

A scavenger hunt.

MRS. BATES: Really?

Yes, yes! 100% yes.

Mom and I love scavenger hunts.

So many memories of scavenging and hunting and...

Anyway, the next clue is about the medication Mom takes

and I don't think she expected me to come here

which is why I really need you to help me win.

I love games.

But confidential is confidential.

I'm sorry, honey. I really wanna help you,

but I can't if they're all under...

‐(KEYBOARD CLACKS) ‐MRS. BATES: Huh.

I think it's a trick question.

‐Why? ‐MRS. BATES: Because your mom

doesn't get these prescribed for herself.

Yes, she does. I saw them.

She had them in her bag and her name...

She gets them for your dog.

We share a pharmacy with the vet next door.

The answer you're looking for

‐is Ridocaine. ‐(BREATHING SHAKILY)

MRS. BATES: Green pill, gray cap.

‐It's dog medicine. ‐MRS. BATES: Uh‐huh.

Says it's a "muscle relaxant

"prescribed to reduce canine leg pain or leg discomfort

"caused by sunburns, bites, or cuts."

And what would happen

if you gave a human being Ridocaine?

What kind of a question is that?

‐(DOOR OPENS) ‐DIANE: Chloe?

DIANE: Hey, Kathy, it's me. Do you have a sec?

I wanted to apologize for that whole scene today.

You know, her doctor switched her

to that new medication a few days ago

and it's just totally messed with her head.

I appreciate that, Kathy.

I'm trying.

(CHUCKLES)

Well, anyway, I know she asked you a few questions

about another medication

and I was just hoping you could remind her

there's no way I would ever give her

a drug that was meant for animals.

I was wondering if you could give her a call

and assure her that

even if she was taking that medication...

I just need you to tell her that it's perfectly safe.
