Previously on
The Republic of Sarah...

A sizable deposit of coltan

has been discovered
right here in Greylock.

This morning,
Governor Taggert signed

eminent domain paperwork,

which gives Greylock's
public space

to the state
of New Hampshire.

They're gonna wipe Greylock
off the map.

I know how we can
stop the drilling.

What if we didn't belong
to New Hampshire?

This town was never legally
claimed by anyone.

[chuckles]: Who's in charge
if the mayor quits?

TYLER:
Ms. Cooper. She saved us.

She should be the leader.

Lydon can dig two mines.

Grover, one of the mines
is going on your land.

Grover build that house himself.

It was his wedding gift
to Patience.

This is an international
boundary now.

Your border must
remain closed.

♪ Here we go

♪ Here I go

♪ Changing

♪ But now into what?

♪ Tumbling with the seasons

♪ Watch me tie my soul
into knots ♪

AJ:
Well, it's official.

We're completely cut off.

Greylock PD
just checked all the roads

that lead out of town.

New Hampshire border
is closed to the south.

Canadian border
is closed to the north.

Governor Taggert
was not bluffing.

We're completely cut off.

Wait, how can she do that,

legally?
Aren't there rules

for how countries
have to treat each other?

There are two basic steps
to becoming fully independent.

One: say you're a country.

Two: get other
countries to agree.

Greylock is obviously
all over step one,

but the U.S. is
dragging its feet on step two,

and since they haven't
officially recognized us yet,

we get no treaties,
no diplomacy,

and no protection from Gail.

CORINNE:
Okay, so,

how do we get recognized?I'm gonna call

the State Department
and find out.

But it takes time,
which is something

we don't have at the moment.

So, for now,

I'm gonna to focus

on forcing Governor Taggert
to open our border,

or nobody's
getting out of Greylock.

Nobody's coming in, either.

My dad was just on the phone
with our dairy guy,

and he says

he won't deliver
to Greylock.

He's worried his drivers
will get trapped here.

But they can't close
the borders from our side.

No, but they can stop anyone

who comes in
from getting back out again.

The governor would let her
own citizens get stranded here?

If it means getting
her hands on our coltan.

She's made it very clear
she's always gonna choose

profit over people.

If Greylock really is cut off

from the rest
of the world, then...

people who live here
can't get to work

out there, people who live there
can't get to work out here.

I mean, we can't get food.

No medical supplies.

Wait.
Josh has diabetes.

I have to be able
to get insulin.

I'll fix this.

I'm gonna call

every leader
in the area.

I'm hoping I can get them
on our side

so they can put pressure the
governor to do the right thing.

Sounds like a lot of calls
to make. I'll-I'll help.

No, I'm Greylock's leader.

If anyone's gonna reach out,
it should be me.

DANNY:
Hey, Piper,

I hope you like
cheap black sludge,

'cause it's
the only flavor we have.

♪ I guess it goes...

You okay?

It's weird having you here.

Because I stick out
like a sore thumb

among these hill people?

Because Greylock is my past
and you're my present,

and having the two
mix together is just...

You know, I spent
the last six years

doing everything I could
to forget about Greylock

and everyone in it.

This place is
a sinkhole.

It's-it's toxic.

I don't want any of that poison
leaking into our life together.

So you want me to go home.

[sighs]

I love that you
surprised me.

And I love you.

And I can't wait for you to stop
being Ms. Piper Brindley

and start being
Mrs. Piper Brindley,[chuckles softly]

but...

for now, I just want to keep
my head down

and do my job so I can
get the hell out of here.

♪ You climb out the window...

[sighs] Mm.

I will go back to New York
at the end of the weekend.

Mm.

In the meantime...

...we can stay
right here in this bed,

and you can keep
me all to yourself.

[phone vibrates]

Mm-mmm.Uh...

It's work. I...Mm-mm! [chuckles]

I got to take it.
Hang on, hang on.

Yeah?

Wait, what?

[sighs]

The governor of New Hampshire
just closed Greylock's borders.

Nobody in, nobody out.

♪

Goodwill.

[sighs]

Doing all right
with all of this?

I'm probably gonna
need some more boxes.

I'm not talking about the boxes.

Come on,

we're in the middle
of packing up your house.

It's a house you built
with your own two hands.

A house you shared
with Patience.

Grover, I know this place
means the world to you,

and you've barely batted
an eyelash.Yeah.

I'm fine, AJ.Grover, you're not fine.

And you're not a psychiatrist.

No, but I am your friend.

And I'm here if you ever
need to talk about it.

Yeah.
There's nothing to talk about.

I know, I know.
You told me not to come.

But Grover's my friend.
I want to help.

Come on, Sarah.
This is hard enough for him

without having you around
already.

Making that deal with Lydon
was the only way

to get our lights back on

and keep Greylock
from going under.

I had to do it, AJ.

I know. I know.
And Grover does, too.

But he asked for space,

and he meant it.
You got to respect that.

Right now, the best thing
you can do to help is...

to not help.

Okay.

Come on. Let's go.
Let's go, Fenway.

Let's go.

So, how's it going
with the phone calls?

Not great.

Everyone's falling in line
behind the governor so far.

Why? Don't they need us
for their economies to function?

Not if Gail showers them
with coltan money.

Everybody I've talked to
said she's promised them

upgrades once Greylock folds,
and she can take our rock.

New schools, new buses,
infrastructure...What,

they're just gonna sit there
and watch us get trampled?

As long as it puts cash
in their pockets.

What are you gonna do?

I'm gonna change
the conversation.

Money talks,
but morality shouts.

Saving Greylock
is the right thing to do.

I have to make
these local leaders see that.

And I will. I got
us into this mess,

I'm going to
get us out of it.

Okay, but...

I mean, we can't stay locked
in Greylock forever.

Half the people here
work in other towns.

We get all of our food
from them, all of our medicine.

Believe me, I understand
how important the border is.

I'm on it. Don't worry.
No one needs to panic.

[indistinct chatter]

Lee, it's 11:00.
Why are you closing?

'Cause we're out
of everything.

You know, the same thing's
happening all over.

People are freaking out

over the borders
being closed.

Well, I hope you got
an answer, Dear Leader,

because we ain't gonna
last very long like this.

Mayor Stone, I understand that
you need a new middle school,

but are you willing to let
Greylock disappear to get it?

[line beeps][clears throat]

What do you want?

I want to know why didn't you
tell me the borders were closed.

Next time, I'll be sure to add
your name to the PTA phone tree.

My bosses are pissed.

See, we're supposed
to start work on the mines,

but we can't send our people up
if they're gonna get trapped

in Greylock.Okay.

I have people
in real trouble here.

I have restaurants
running out of food.

Shelves are empty all over town.

Corinne is freaking out
because her son is a diabetic

and she can't
get him to the doctor

right now.
So,

If it's okay with you,

I'm gonna focus on getting
basic supplies to my citizens

before I worry
about kissing corporate ass.

Sarah. Sar...[line ringing]

Hi, this is Sarah Cooper
from Greylock.

Can I please speak
with Councilman Jacobs?

MAYA:
Okay, here is your coffee,

Mrs. Cooper.
I'm sorryAh.

we're all out of milk,
because of the border stuff.

Oh, no, no.
That is fine.

Thank you so much, hon.

Of course.

[chuckles]
Hello.

Morning.

Are you new in town?

Just around for a few days.
[chuckles]

Oh, well, I think
you might find it ends up

being a little bit longer now,
with the border situation.

More time to check out
the local scenery, right?

Well, Greylock seems to have

very interesting local scenery
at the moment.

Hey.Hey.

How we doing
with the plan?

Uh, Tim's bringing
Jason and Ashley,

so that'll be 14.

And then Katie got the stakes
from the garden center.

Are you sure about this, Ty?

It could be...

you know, risky.

It's riskier doing nothing.
Right?

Yeah, we have to fight back.
We can't just

let them lock us
inside our own borders.

It's totally messed up.Ty.

Oh.

Here, last load.Cool.

End of an era, huh?

It's just a house.

See you at the storage place.

Thanks, Ty.
Thanks, girls.Bye.

Thanks.

ELLEN:
Your brother's engaged.Oh, my God.

Geez.

[exhales sharply]

Gonna give me
a heart attack, Mom.

Just met his fiancée
at Sweetie Pie.

She just strolled up to you
and said,

"Hi, I'm engaged to your son"?No.

She didn't mention Danny.

She's wearing Iris' ring.

The one Iris gave him
when she died.

You can just call her Nana, Mom.

We all liked her,
even if you didn't.

How could Danny not tell us?

You can't seriously
be asking that question.

Mom, he didn't talk to us
for six years.

He's only here now for work.

Just 'cause he's back
doesn't mean we're gonna,

like, suddenly be this
big, happy family.

We never were
in the first place.I know.

But he did come to me
about Lydon's blackmail plot,

and I did the right thing.

So I was hoping it opened
the door a little bit.

He can't hold a grudge forever.

Why not? He's gonna have the
scars you gave him forever.

I know you're trying to change,

and that's great.

But you have to change for you,
not for Danny.

And the best way
to do that is...

to go to AA.

So...
[chuckles]

...for the thousandth time,

this is the information

for a local meeting.The last thing

I need to do
is sit in a church basement

and listen to a bunch
of plumbers

cry about their problems.The last thing you need

is to sit in your house alone

with a new
fifth of whiskey

you keep hiding
under the counter

every time I throw
the old one away.

Mom,

go to the meeting.

Where have you been?
I've been calling you.

I'm sorry.
My phone died during another

delightful round
of "Local Leader

Not It."
Why are you

in uniform? I thought
you worked this morning.

They called me back in
to help with this mess

with the teenagers.

What mess with the teenagers?

[indistinct chatter]

AJ:
They got arrested trying to cross the border.

Oh, my God.

Hi, Ms. Cooper.

This was all just a big
misunderstanding. They probably

didn't realize they were
on the wrong side of the border.

They jumped our barriers
and shouted,

"disobedience is the true
foundation of liberty" at us.

Pretty sure
they knew.

Okay, that's a
Henry David Thoreau quote,

so at least
we know they're doing

their English homework.Look,

I have two teenagers
at home, so I get it.

There aren't gonna
be any charges.

We just deported
them back to you,

you handle it.
But do us a favor

and keep them on your side
from now on, hmm?

Of course.

Thank you.[phone vibrating]

Governor Taggert.
Finally.

Can we please sit down
and talk about

this whole thing
like adults?

I'll talk to you
like an adult, Sarah,

when you start
acting like one.

I just heard that there was
an assault on our border.

It was just a few kids
with protest signs.

It won't happen again.

No, it won't,
because the SWAT team

is on its way to Greylock
right now

to reinforce our border.

What? Gail, no,
wait a minute. No, no, no.

My troops will be looking over
every inch of that land.

If anyone so much as sets foot
across the border,

they'll be charged
with illegal entry

into the United States
and sent to federal prison.

Come on, can't we figure out
some way for us

to live in peace?

I am just trying to help
my citizens.

So am I, Sarah.

I can do wonders for this state
with the money from that coltan.

Okay, there's just
one problem, Gail:

it's not your coltan.Not yet.

Not ever.We'll see, Sarah.

Hey, Ms. Cooper, uh,

can we talk to you real quick?

Yeah.
Always.

Um, we wanted to apologize
for what we did today.

Yeah, we're
really sorry.

Maya, guys, what you did
today took guts.

You saw an injustice, you tried
to fix it. I could never...

[clears throat]

I am very mad at you all
for what you did today.

You should have known better.
It was totally out of line.

[whispering]:
I am so proud of you guys.

But do me a favor

and stay on our side
of the border from now on.

I don't want to see
any of you in prison scrubs.

I can tell you,
from experience,

they chafe.[kids chuckle]

So, what are you gonna
do about the border?

I have, uh, plenty
of tricks up my sleeve.

No.
You're joking.

No. Listen, please,
just go with me for a second.

Something Gail said this
morning got me thinking.

She said,
"My troops will be watching

every inch of that land."

Land.

But not water.Uh-huh.

The governor has us surrounded,
we're completely landlocked,

but we aren't waterlocked.
Look, I have a plan.

The Woonsock flows along
our southern border.

It starts here,

passes under us here,
moves through two miles

of New Hampshire
to our east,

and then finally
arrives in...

Maine.Maine. Yes, exactly.

So, I called a friend
from college this morning.

She and her family
are gonna put together

a supply drop for the town.

Just the essentials--
eggs, milk, bread.

And I'm supposed to bring
them home in this?Mm-hmm.

You're gonna cross the border
tonight, grab the supplies

and come back.
Gail will never know.[groans]

Sarah, why me?Because I trust you.

And I know you know boats.

Fishing with my dad as a kid is

a little different from
riverboat smuggling in the dark.

Okay, I know. Look.
I know it's crazy.

It's completely crazy, I know.

But, AJ...

if you pull this off,

it will give me a chance
to get the borders open.

And in the meantime,
restocking Greylock's shelves

will rob the governor
of her best weapon against us:

fear.

So, to recap.Mm-hmm.

You want me, a police officer,Yeah.

to illegally cross
an international boundary

in this floating...
mid-life crisis,

so that I can smuggle a bunch
of supplies back into Greylock

and risk ruining
my professional reputation,

and getting my hair wet.

This is ridiculous.

AJ, right now, we're standing

in a country we invented.

We're, like, way past
worrying about ridiculous.

WOMAN:
...representatives are busy.

You can't be serious, Sarah.

I'm on hold
and AJ's on a boat.

You asked for an update,
that's the update.

I don't know
what else you want from me.

I want you
to start talking to me.

Why? You aren't
talking to me.

What does that mean?

I know you're engaged, Danny.

Not that you felt
the need to tell me.

I mean, guess I
shouldn't be surprised.

I don't really know anything

about your life in New York.Yeah,

because my life in New York

is mine, Sarah, unlike here,

where you can't cross the street
without six people

discussing it
in Sweetie Pie the next day.

So, what-- you were just
never gonna tell me

about your fiancée?

I didn't think I had to.

I knew Corinne would tell you.

Corinne?

Corinne knows?

Of course she knows.
She told you, didn't she?

Mom told me.

'Cause apparently everyone
in this town knows but me.

BELLA: I really like this.

TYLER: Walking?

Dating you.

Like, two months ago,
I felt like...

I didn't even
really matter.

Like I could disappear,

and my dad would be
the only person who noticed.

Now I feel really good,
you know?

Like I can do anything.

Well, you can.

You think so?

Sure.

I mean, we staged
a whole protest because of you.

No, that was your idea.

Well, yeah, but I never
would have had the courage

to say anything till I met you.

[phone vibrates]

Hi, Dad.
How's New York?

Did you get arrested?

I just got out
of a four-hour meeting

to a dozen messages from
your stepmom waiting for me.

Okay, Dad,
we didn't get arrested.

We just got sent back
to Greylock.

I told you to stay away
from this independence crap.

But, Dad, we were just...

You know what, you and I
are gonna have a serious talk

when I get home.

Whoa!
Hey, what was that?

Too busy to tell me
what's bothering you?

What's bothering me?

Let's see, um...

our town is surrounded
by guys who look

like extras
from The Hurt Locker,

our stores
are all empty,

AJ is a prisoner,
Grover is an arsonist,

and to top it all
off, my best friend

found out that my
brother is engaged

decided not to tell me.

I guess I thought
that Danny would tell you.

Okay, well,
he didn't.

Shocker.

Now, if you'll excuse me,
I have to go explain

that I promised them
because the boat

that had our cargo on it sank.

Yeah, I know
how insane that sounds.

You can let yourself
out, Corinne.

[door closes]

MAYA:
The video from our protest has only been up an hour,

but we already have
a ton of likes.

Has your dad see this?Seen it?

He posted it to his own page
five minutes after I got home.

Your dad's so cool.

My dad's still the guy who
does surprise inspections

in my bedroom like we're
in the freaking Army.

I don't know,
at least he supports you.

My dad's losing his mind
about this protest.

It's almost like he has
this list in his head

of all these things I'm supposed
to be, and he freaks out

as soon as I get near anything
that isn't on it.

So talk to him.

Tell him you have
your own list

of things
you want to be.

Look, I'm sure, deep down,

all your dad wants is
for you to be happy.

So tell him
this makes you happy.

Tell him you're done being
Little Miss Prissy Pants

and you want to make a
difference in the world.

Most dads would be pumped

to hear their daughter say that.

Maybe you're right.

Of course I'm right.

I'm a genius.

[car horns honking]

[phone buzzing]

Vince. What's going on?
What is this?

An hour ago, the governor
announced she's granting

political asylum to anyone
who wants to leave Greylock.

Traffic out of town's backed up
for half a mile.

Political asylum?
Is she serious?

What, does she think
it's suddenly Cold War Berlin

around here?

Is this, like,
a permanent thing?

Like, are the, are the borders
open for good now?

One-time offer. Once they
process this initial wave,

they're gonna shut down again.

No going back
and forth.

[woman shouting indistinctly]Whoa!

This doesn't make any sense.

Why would Gail do this?

[horns honking]

Corinne.

What's going on? Is Josh okay?

[stammers]

He's been puking
all morning, and I,

I called the doctor, he told me
to take him to the hospital.

They're gonna get blood work
done. Just, with his diabetes,

you know,
you never know, so...

I, uh, I tried to call you.

I know. I should have,
I should have picked up,

but I was... I'm so...

You should go.

Go, go, go, go, go.

Bye, sweetie.

TYLER:
Hey, Ms. Cooper.

We thought you could use
a little pick-me-up.

How's it going?Oh, thanks, guys.

Um...

it's going, yeah.

I'm just, I'm trying to figure
this whole thing out.

MAYA: You know, just 'cause
you're our leader doesn't mean

you have to keep doing
everything by yourself.

Yeah, I mean, what about
all those activists

you taught us about?

Alice Paul and Mother Jones
and Sylvia Rivera.

None of them
worked alone.

They all had people
behind them.

If they didn't,
they never would've

made the difference they did.

Even LeBron needs teammates.

Why can't you be
like normal kids

and sleep through class?

Greylock's story is
all over the Internet.

A lot of people are talking
about our protest

and how unfair
the governor is being.

That's why the governor opened
the border temporarily.

It was your protest.

She must've been getting
pressure from people who saw it.

And that was just a bunch
of teenagers with signs.

Think about what we could do
with a whole town.

Okay, you realize
there's an entire army

outside our border, right?

There's an entire army
within our border, too.

Just needs a general.

You pushed him out.

[pounding on door]We can talk about this.

I'm your mother.

And you're not gonna cut me
out of your life.

Of course we can cut you out.

That's what you do to cancer.

I would like to talk to my son.

Well, he doesn't want
to talk to you.

Not now. Not ever.
Not after what you did.

You will never have
a relationship with Danny.

And that's a real shame,
because he's wonderful.

He's smart

and he's funny and he's caring.

And just in case you thought
any of that was because of you,

it's not.

He's all those things
in spite of you.

You can leave now, and if you
ever come knocking on this door

again...

I will give you
a few scars of your own.

SARAH:
I need your help.

For the past few days,
I've been trying

to reopen our borders.

Nothing has worked.

Talking with some
of my former students today,

I realized why.

All of my solutions
to fix the problem

started with "I"

instead of "we."

That changes right now.

I might not be able to get
the border open, but we can.

"We" is stronger than "I."

"We" is braver than "I."

"We..."

is invincible.

Governor Taggert wants
our coltan.

And she believes that because
we live on the wrong

side of an invisible line,

it's okay
to destroy us to get it.

But we are going to show
the world that she's wrong.

This afternoon we'll gather

at the southern tip
of Jefferson Road

and, together, step over
the border into New Hampshire.

[crowd shouting, clamoring] This will not be easy

and there may be
serious consequences

for what we're about to do.

But if Greylock is
going to survive,

we need to remind the world
that lines on a map

are not what define us.

Compassion defines us.

Kindness, friendship, fidelity.

Love is what defines us.

And so let us come together
in peaceful protest

and appeal to the better angels
of our neighbors.

[officers shout]

♪ I am I

♪ Unify, unify, unify

[shouting, clamoring]

♪ Do you hear that thunder?

[lock buzzes, door slams]

What are you doing here?

I was worried about you.

Well, your protest
is everywhere.

Social media, TV, the radio.

Once people realized the true
cost of the fancy new upgrades

the governor was
promising them,

they stopped supporting
the idea.

And there's been a crowd
of people outside of her office

all day demanding
that she open the borders.

God.[chuckles]

Is Josh okay?

He's feeling much better.

Yeah, Adam's with him now.

I love that little munchkin.

Listen, about before, um...

No, I-- the reason
that I didn't tell you

about Danny being engaged...

it's because I, um,

I didn't want to tell you
how I found out.

How'd you find out?

A couple of days ago, I...

...went, uh, to his hotel room,
and when he answered the door,

Piper was there.

Why would you go to his hotel?

I don't know. It doesn't matter.
It's-it's over.

He's clearly moved on
and so have I.

Look, the point is,
is that I'm sorry.

Me, too.

GUARD:Cooper.

You're free to go.

Seriously?All charges have
been dropped.

And the borders
have been reopened.

[laughs]Oh, my God.

It worked.

REPORTER:
Outraged New Hampshirites

began protesting the way
Greylock was being treated,

with some calling for
Governor Taggert's resignation.

This, combined with her already
sagging poll numbers,

ultimately leaves her with...ASSISTANT:
Hey, Ms. Cooper!

I'm so sorry, Governor,
but I couldn't stop her.

Nobody can, apparently.

Thank you.

[laughs softly]

You here to gloat?

I'm here to make you an offer.

And what is that?

Peace.

No more fighting between
New Hampshire and Greylock.

We leave you alone,
you leave us alone.

Sarah, I can't let...

You can't let me steal
a billion dollars' worth

of civic improvement
without a fight.

I know.

The thing is, Gail,
we did fight and you lost.

Let me tell you
a little secret.

Leadership-- real leadership--

is knowing
when to follow.

Here's what's gonna happen.

You're gonna call
your buddies in Quebec

and tell them to open
our northern border.

Then you're gonna talk
to the State Department

and help Greylock
start the process

of getting officially
recognized.

In exchange,
I will help you save face

by holding a joint press
conference where you can take

all the credit
for our truce.

We good?

We're good.

Okay.

Have a nice day.

Why didn't you tell Sarah
you're getting married?

I thought you would.
You're her best friend.

You're her brother
and it's-it's your engagement.

Which, you know,
congratulations, by the way.

Maybe this time you'll actually
go through with it.

♪ Turn back around...

Look,

I'm guessing
you not telling Sarah

has to do with keeping
your mother

as far away from your life
as possible.

And I get it. I do.

But Sarah is not your mom.

She's never done anything
to hurt you.

Why are you so intent
on hurting her?

[laughs softly]
I should get back to work.

I know you still care about her.

You proved that when
you stopped the blackmail plot.

That was business.No.

That was you
protecting your little sister.

Just like
you always have.

Your mom never
went after Sarah

when you were kids, right?

You really expect me
to believe that's an accident?

You really expect me to believe

that you weren't
provoking Ellen,

doing everything
you could to make sure

it was your closet door she was
banging on and not Sarah's?

You're her big brother.

She needed you then
and she needs you now.

Dad. Listen,

I know you're gonna yell at me
about the protest, and I get it.

You want what's best for me
and you're trying to protect me,

but I-I don't need
protecting, Dad.

I'm 16 years old.

And what-what's best for me
is to follow my heart,

with Tyler and Ms. Cooper
and independence.

Mm-hmm.And I don't
want to stay

on the sidelines
anymore, Dad.

I want to stand up
for what's right

and I want to make a difference.

And, hey, you always said
you hoped I'd become a strong,

independent woman,
well, I am one.

Right? And I'm really
proud of that.

I just kind of wish
you could be, too.

Of course I'm proud
of you, Bella.

I'm not trying to stop you
from making a difference,

I'm trying to help you do it.

"Cabot Hall." What is this?

One of the best boarding schools
in the country.

The kind of place that churns
out judges, doctors, CEOs,

senators, Nobel Prize winners.

You want to change the world?

You really want to change it?

Cabot will give you
the tools to do it.

Dad, this place
is in Connecticut.

Mm-hmm.

You know, and I have a friend
at work who's a trustee.

And they have an open bed

and he managed
to grab it for you.

We're gonna drop you off
next week.

No.

Dad, no. I'm not going
to boarding school.

Bella.I am sorry.

Okay, forget everything
that I just said.

I'll do anything you ask.

I just can't be sent away
from Greylock.

Please.It's done, Bella.

Dad, please.

[crying softly]

GROVER:
That's one hell of a view.

[sputters]

I, uh, heard your speech.

You know, the whole
"I" versus "we" thing?

I know you were talking
about Greylock, but...

it got me thinking
about things.

With Patience and, uh,

losing the house.

I can't keep carrying
that around by myself.

I do need help.

I do need to start

talking to someone about things.

So, um, have you thought
about what comes next?

I mean, like, where
you're gonna live?

Lydon's gonna build you a house
anyplace you want.

I was thinking maybe
somewhere near the lake.

The lake. Our lake?

Of course our lake.

You know I can't leave Greylock.

Why not?

You know,
my job's here.

My friends are here and...

you're here.

Just give me time, Sarah.

I just got to figure things out.

Got to figure me out.

I'm here whenever you're ready.

No matter how long it takes.

ELLEN:
Hi, my name is Ellen.

I'm an alcoholic.

Welcome, Ellen.
Hi, Ellen.

At this moment, that's probably
the only thing about me

I know for sure.

Well, I know
who I would like to be.

I'd like to be caring,
compassionate.

Uh, dependable.

I'd like to be a friend,
an ally.

I would like to be a mother.

Those... things feel
a very long way off.

Um...

so I'm here today because...

I'm here because...

I'm here.

For now, that's enough.

Hi, Bear.

It's me.
