Of course you know
you're not really a Ranger

until a DPS chair
makes it so.

You, uh, got one more
important decision to make.

You ready?

-Scotch or bourbon?
-I'm good, thanks.

You good?
-All right.
-Yeah.

Don't mind if I do.

Sure.

To Walker... Texas Ranger.

Glad you took the time.

-For yourself and your family.
-Yeah.

Yeah, it was, it was--
It was good.

I needed that.
Thank you.

Now, don't-don't get
all sappy on me here.

Come on, I need my
top Ranger out there,

not this-this new breed

all in touch with
their feelings and that.

Yeah, well, you know, Stan,
maybe it's time

we embrace some change.

Don't doubt yourself too much.

You were born to do this.

Just do me one
thing, though:

-color inside the lines.
-Uh-huh.

You mean at least until
you get elected D.A.?

See, that's a smart man
right there.

That's right. What, one more
day on the campaign trail, huh?

Yeah. Just got this feeling

everything can change
tomorrow, you know?

I mean, I'm still gonna have
to eat your brother's lunch

at our alma mater later.

That's right, the debate
at Sacred Heart High.

I'm not gonna be able to make
it, Stan. You're going, right?

I mean, one of us is gonna
have to see

who our new boss is gonna be.

Yeah, I was gonna
-drive Liam over.
-What? No.

No, no, we cannot have--

that-that would be favoritism.

We can't have favoritism
in this department.

Am I right, Cap?

Walker will absolutely
be driving you.

See? That just makes
more sense.

Well, listen, I'm hoping,
for both our sakes,

that, uh, you won't have to
take orders

from your kid brother. Huh?

That looks nice.

Welcome back, Ranger.

Thank you, sir.

Now where's my damn tie?

♪

They call yet?

No.

Hey, Google, remind me
to call the doctor at noon.

GOOGLE ASSISTANT:
Got it. I'll remind you at noon.

So I can give him the what for.

[door closes]
STELLA:
It's the last week of school.

Don't you think you need
to tell Ruby

how you feel before summer?

Stella, it's not that easy
to just...

Come on, Augie.

-Show some spirit.
-AUGUST: Yeah.

'Cause it's,
it's Spirit Week, yay.

Is it Spirit Week already?

All right, I got
some work to do.

It's best not to keep things
bottled up, trust me.

So, what's Spirit Week?

Oh. Liam's never told you
about Spirit Week?

No, no, Bret is here
to help with the campaign,

not to talk about
Spirit Week.

Okay, seriously, can we
stop saying "Spirit Week"?

-It's kind of getting annoying.

-Spirit Week!
-Spirit Week!

I have not heard of the week
whose name we shall not speak.

It's what we call the week
before summer break,

when everyone's taking care
of unfinished business

they put off all year,
like, I don't know,

finally confessing their
crushes.

Thank you. And, yeah,
and making up for being

a terrible friend.

-Or in Uncle Liam's case, both.
-Ooh...

Half the school apologized
for how I was treated

when I came out,
and the other half wanted

to hook up before
going off to college.

Hey, no phones at
breakfast time, love.

No, I got talking points
and the debate-- Okay.

Okay, so let me
get this straight.

Uh, everyone announces
how they're gonna change,

but the question is,

is it all just talk, or do they
actually act on it?

Are you talking about
Spirit Week or the debates?

Are you making this
all about you now?

[laughter]

What about you, Mawline?

You need some talking points
for those vows?

Excuse me, I have
done this before,

and things do get better
with age.

Love you.

AUGUST:
-Thank you, Mawline.
-You're welcome.

STELLA [chanting]:
Spirit Week!

-AUGUST: Are you serious?
-Spirit Week!

[doorbell rings]

Ah, there she is!

[screaming]

There's my baby!

Oh, Trey, look at you.

Oh, you gonna get
some of this, too.

Come here.
Oh, my gosh!

Trey, she is beautiful.

Oh, my goodness.
I mean, I've seen pictures,

but you never know, with all
the filters and whatever.

But gosh,
would the two of you make

-some beautiful babies.
-Ooh...

-Thank you.
-Yeah.

It's so nice to
-finally meet you.
-Yeah.

And, um, you can stay...

Don't worry about that, I have
a room down at the Driskill.

I just had to stop by
and see my boy first.

My goodness, Trey... Oh, wow.

You're an artist, too?

Okay, so have you guys
worked out

who's gonna pay the mortgage,
the utilities and all of that?

Uh...

Listen, I know talking about
money isn't sexy,

but it is a part of
any healthy relationship.

Well, that and, uh... All right, Mama.

Why don't we get you
something to eat

and let Micki get
-ready for work, huh?
-Okay.

Well, I'm starving,
because you know

I didn't eat those pretzels
-on the plane, Trey.
-I know.

[safe beeps][chatter continues in distance]

Oh, damn it.

Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Ma, I got it. Okay?

[chuckles]
She's a trip, isn't she?

Yeah.
[chuckles]
You all right?

Yeah, I just missed
a couple days on these.

-How many days?
-Probably not enough
to be pregnant.

Even though we'd have
beautiful babies.

Ah.
[laughs]

Did you just take two of those?

Yes, Doctor. It's fine.

I'm sorry, I just, uh,
really have to run.

Okay, what's that...
what's that look?

What would we do if, uh...

I were pregnant?
Yeah.

I'm not ready yet.

I mean not anytime soon.

But I am all about
the practicing.

Uh-huh.[both laugh]

But we should figure out
the whole

mortgage-utilities split first.

Yeah. Right.

Mm-hmm.

Howdy, Counselor.
You ready for this?

As ready as I'll ever be.

Bret, you remember
Micki Ramirez, right?

Yeah, yeah, of course.
She's the woman that

inspired you to run.

Ah...

Here we go, here we go.
Bill and Diane.

Here you go. Vote Stan.
You guys know that, come on.

-Hey.
-LIAM:
There he is.

I've got to beat that guy.

Don't worry, you have my vote.

STAN:
You guys can vote, too.

Make sure it's legal.

We only count legal votes
here in Texas.

Hey, hey, look at this.

Two high school debate champs

closing the campaign on
their old stomping grounds.

Of course, Liam here

took off for New York the second
he got that diploma.

Always the wayward son
of Lonestar.

You know, maybe you should
have stayed an outsider.

Well... I, uh...
I had to come back

after you made a mess
of things.

[both chuckling]

You both were involved in the
sentencing of Carlos Mendoza

for the murder of Emily Walker.

He won't talk to the press.
Do either of you have

anything to say about
-his exoneration?
-I think we've covered that.

Mr. Mendoza didn't cooperate
with our initial investigation,

but mistakes were made, yes.

Thankfully, justice prevailed.

Well, can you comment on
the timing of the arrest

of Detective Campbell and the
retirement of D.A. McLawson

-this past week?
-Byron, Byron.
Come on, man.

It's a photo op,
not a press conference.

-Here. Get in here. Come on.
-Come on, get some photos.

[phones chiming, vibrating]

Principal Heaney.
Is there a problem?

Someone just called in
a bomb threat a few minutes ago.

Local PD is already
en route. Hey...

-What's going on?
-All right, everyone clear out.

Stay away from the building.

MICKI: Follow me in an
orderly manner, this way.

Dad, is everything okay?

We have a-a... a situation.

Why don't y'all just stay back
until we figure this out. Go on.

Go on.

Hey.
Hey.

Bomb squad's five minutes away.

We gotta make sure
-the building's clear.
-Yeah.

-Anyone in here?
-Texas Rangers!

[loud clattering]

Texas Rangers.

[mooing]

I think you should
search the cow.

[cow bellows]

[indistinct chatter][siren wailing]

WALKER:
Um, just...

Um, okay, well...

Yeah, keep me up to speed.

All right, witness who called it
in wanted to remain anonymous,

but they said they overheard
an explicit threat

-to both candidates.
-What'd they say?

"They can run for office in hell
after I blow 'em to pieces."

All right, well,
we're sweeping the school,

the auditorium where
the debate was gonna be,

and coordinating with local PD
about questioning suspects.

Y'all have any idea
who could have done this?

-Mm-mm.
-Past threats? Anything?

Well, DPS and the D.A.'s office
are still dismantling

-North Side Nation.
-Trials pending.

Open investigations.

That doesn't exactly
narrow it down.

Well, hell, I don't know.

Uh...

Well, good job.

May the best man win.
[chuckles] I'll see you.

Hey, what are you doing
for the rest of the day?

Why, what do you got in mind?

A beer, barbecue
back at the ranch.

See, that's the first good idea
you've had the entire campaign.

So yes.
But I'm bringing the barbecue,

and that's not open
for debate.

I guess he's buying.

Where do we start?

The kids.

It's been a rough year
for all of them,

not just Stella and Augie.
I mean, this age is brutal,

and this was something
they were looking forward to.

[sighs] If only someone
co-owned a restaurant,

it could be a safe haven
for them to unwind

and eat all the free
hot wings they wanted. Mm.

I like how you're thinking.

Mm, I am the smart one.

♪ I've been losing
all this sleep... ♪

All right, Sacred Heart,

food and drinks on the house,
no booze.

[all booing]
Oh, no, no, no. Come on.

Hey there.

Hey.

I didn't know you were back.

Just filling in for Lewis; hard
to leave this place, I guess.

Even if I don't care for
the new management.

[laughs]
Funny.
What's going on here?

Spirit Week prank gone wrong?

Bomb threat at the school.

-Geez.
-Yeah, uh,

figured they could use some
place to stay safe, you know?

It's funny.

We were the same age
when we first came here.

Wow, I didn't even think
about that.

I still can't believe Hoyt's
fake IDs even worked.

Well, Chad, the old bartender,
was blind in one eye.

Yeah. You remember how he
used to take his glass eye out

and put it in his whisky?

[clicks tongue]

"Here's looking at you."Yeah, I remember.

Huh. Who's making Augie
so nervous?

WALKER:
Ruby, the young lady
he's talking to.

He's been hung up on her
all year long.

Still can't tell
what's going on there.

I guess everyone needs
a Becca Ferguson

before they find
the right one.

Becca Ferguson? Wow.

That's a deep cut.

Remember when she kissed you
at the drive-in?

Do I remember?

The shark attack, you mean?

Yes, I remember.
I still have scars

in the back of my gums.

All of the teeth.[laughs]

Hey, you mind if I
leave 'em here with you?

I gotta head back.

Go catch a bad guy.
I got the kids.
Okay.

Thank you.

Hey, Cordi?

Yeah?

When I left before...

Geri. Uh, Geri...

I'm glad you're back.

ABELINE:
We need to tell them
it's cancer.

Liam already knows
and it's not fair

to keep it from the rest
of the family.

After everything that's
happened,

you think they need more drama?

[vehicles approaching]

Let's just wait till
after the election.

LIAM:
Hey.

I invited Stan.

-I see that.
-Brought barbecue.

And some beer.

Well, come on in.
Just no politics.

[laughter]

-We'll try our best.
-That's funny.

I hope they moo-ved that heifer
to cow-nty lock-up.

All right,
stop milking it.

[laughs]

Bomb squad's cleared
the building.

Doing a sweep of
the auditorium now.

Figured we'd just
do a walk-through

and see if anything
stands out, like...

Oh, my God, is that you?

You and Hoyt.

Yeah.

Yeah, we had
a good run that year.

-Wow.
-Hey, they trace
that caller yet?

They're still working on it.

Oh, my God,
is that you, too?!

You look like an ice-skating
Patrick Swayze.

You were a theater geek.

I-I went down the road
for a spell.

Oh, yeah, is it because
of those girls

staring at you so intensely?

I do this professionally.

That girl is Becca Ferguson,
a literal drama queen.

She actually dumped me
in between acts

of The Merchant of Venice,
no less.

Is that a tragedy
or a comedy?

The play or the relationship?

[laughs]

Speaking of relationships,

Trey's mom is in town.
It took less than

five minutes for her
to get in a question

about kids, and I...

I don't know why
I'm telling you this,

but I realized I forgot
to take my birth control

for the past few days.

Well, I don't know if that's
a comedy or a tragedy.

Ooh, well played.

I mean it's not like we don't
think about it,

it's just... I just became
a Ranger.

You know, I'm still trying
to figure out this whole

work-life balance, you know?

I do. You know, my two cents?

One, you're kicking ass
as a Ranger.

And two,

you're never gonna find
that balance; no one does.

I thought you were trying
to figure it out.

Yeah, I am trying, but...[phone chimes]

[chuckles]

[phone chimes]
Oh, who's that?

Uh... Geri.

We should check out
that auditorium.

-Yeah, we should.
-Yeah.

Oh, come on!

Dude, too easy.

Don't get too arrogant.

You figure out what you're
-doing this summer?
-No.

Meanwhile, everyone's talking
road trips or cool jobs or...

that.

What about you?

Um, I'm going to see
my parents in Mexico.

Seriously?
That sounds awesome.

Getting away from all this.

Do you want to come?

I wish I could.

Why can't you?
It's not like you've had

the most awesome junior year.

I'm gonna beat you,
just you wait.

No, you're not.

-All right, there you go.
-Thanks, bro!

Your turn to sign my yearbook.

Yeah, all right.

Uh...

Wait, are-are you... Hey, so...

my parents are out of town.

You want to come over later?

[dog whining]

All clear.

Wow.

Shame. Sure would have been nice

to see my kid brother
putting on a show.

Yeah, Liam would have, uh,
wiped the floor

with our DPS overlord.

Yeah. Yes, he would.

Which reminds me.

I heard you never had
your chance to talk to Stan,

or the DBS commission
in general

about my, uh... behavior.

Yeah. Mm-hmm.

Ranger Ramirez.

Would you care to comment
on your partner's actions?

I think they were excessive.

Captain James.
We have anything?

Got it.
We're on the way.

So, they traced the caller.

Travis Pike, ex-con.

Served time for arson.

Travis Pike!
Texas Rangers.

You mind answering
-a few questions?
-Gun!

Don't! Don't do it!
Don't even think about it.

-Come on.
-What are you gonna do, huh?

How you gonna stop me?

You gonna use that gun there
-before I get to mine?
-No, I'm not.

And neither are you,
all right?

Look, this doesn't have to
get out of control.

Let's just, uh...

talk.

All right.

Let's talk.

What do you mean when you say
you want them to listen?

D.A.'s office wouldn't
return my calls.

DPS wasn't any better.

Neither of those slick
politicians would listen to me.

They dropped my case.

What was your case, Travis?

The lithium clouds
from the moon towers

are causing the bats
under Congress Bridge

to attack people;
open and shut!

Right. Of course. Uh...

Travis, that sounds more like
a civil matter.

Uh, they deal more
with the criminal side.

People think because
I'm messed up,

I can be ignored.

I've made mistakes.

I've served my time.

Witnesses said

you were gonna do something

really bad at the debate.

Is that true?

I don't know.

I just wanted somebody
to hear my side of things,

but no one would listen.

No one would hear.

Travis, this man is gonna
take you somewhere safe, okay?

Give you some time to think.

But I promise you we will
relay your message, okay?

[exhales sharply]

Thank you.

That's all I wanted.

That's all I wanted. Howdy.

TODD:
Sometimes the answer's
right there in front of you,

you know, just staring
back at you.

I bet.

Rangers!
Perfect timing.

This young man here,
he was, uh,

trying to... Trying to...

trying to
get himself in trouble?

Why don't you go sign
some yearbooks.

Give me your digits.

Can you just... Come on, your digits!

-No-no digits today.
-Move it along.

Digits? Is everyone
this spirited right now?

They were all fine.
It's actually kind of nice

seeing everybody act like
it's the end of the world.

All the feels.

Mm. Well, we all need
our Becca Ferguson.

Oh...

Really? Both of you?

All right. Um, hey,

do you mind taking Augie
and Stella home

to the ranch later?

Sure.
Great.

And do you mind telling

our future bosses

that the security threat is...

-No longer a threat? Sure.
-Yeah.

Everything okay?

Yeah, just...

You know, something the would-be
security threat said about

serving his time,
but never being heard

made me think about
somebody else

who served his time
and was never heard.

Um... Carlos Mendoza.

Mendoza?

Yeah.

Wow, you really are taking
this reformed Ranger

to new lengths.

He made a false confession, yes,
but the D.A.'s office,

the Rangers, me especially,

we should have done
a better job.

And he's been living a lie
for a long time, and I,

I just need to understand why.

You know, I need to hear
-his side of things.
-Yeah.

You want me to go with you?

No, I'm not going
as a Ranger.

I'm just going as a,
as a, as a widow.

All right, um,

-I'll check in with you later.
-Yeah.

Okay, so this is your Aunt
Karen's second grandchild.

-That's her first one.
-Uh-huh.

Look at her.
Wow.

I'm serious.

Once you have one grandkid,

you want a dozen, Trey.

Uh-huh. I think you're
laying it on

kind of thick,
aren't you, Ma?

What?

Trey, I know why
you didn't redeploy.

Because you were
done with that.

You wanted to be safe,
reliable, I get it.

And I now know that
you wanted to be with her.

Your Micki.

I love her, Ma.

I know you do, son.
I can tell.

And I like her, Trey.
I really like her.

But, son, she just ran out
of the door to be a Ranger.

She might as well be the one
that's redeployed.

Ma, what are you
trying to say?

I just want to be sure that
you both want the same thing.

That's all.

Okay?

-Yeah.
-Okay.

Oh, you're not gonna
believe this one. Look.

My neighbor, Miss Adeline,
this is her grandbaby.

Look. Look at that face.

No one is saying that
the system is broken

beyond repair,
I'm just saying that

it needs to be fixed.

Oh, well, hang on.

Let me guess,
let me guess.

Compassionate release
initiatives.

-Yes, yes.
-Prison reform.
A sentencing commission.

Yes.
Oh, and, uh,

how, exactly, is the county

gonna pay for all this,
Counselor?

Budget reforms.

You could raise taxes.

There it is.
There it is.
If necessary.

You hear that, Bonham?

Your boy's gonna
raise your taxes.

It's not like you've
shown me anything better.

[laughter]

Bonham Walker, you can't
start with me with that.

-Oh, hey, Stella.
-STELLA: Hey.

Where's your brother?

He's still at the Side Step
filming some

end-of-the-year thing.

I thought the debate was
cancelled.

Oh, it is, don't worry.

Liam here was just reading
from the typical

liberal manifesto.
[laughs]

Hey, Stella, before you go,

any questions for our
two lovely candidates

on the final night
of the election?

Yeah...

Uncle Liam,
would you have let my dad

be a Ranger again, after
everything that happened?

I...

I didn't think that
he was ready.

But I know that he wants
to change.

And I know that he's trying
to be at peace.

STELLA:
Cool. Thanks.

[monitor beeping steadily]

[indistinct P.A. announcements]

Mr. Mendoza?

I'm sure you remember me.

I know who you are.

Good news. The security threat
has been lifted.

-Yeah! That's good.
-That's great.
Thank you.

What'd you find out
about the suspect?

He was troubled.

Likely harmless in the long run,

but he was taken in.

Just wanted to be heard.

You should have brought him
out here, Ranger.

Liam could have
set up a plan

for the man's rehabilitation
and reform.

They're still in debate mode.
It's been, uh, spirited.

It's Spirit Week.

Damn it. Why did I
grant one last interview

to Byron Santos?

Maybe because after he
trashed me,

you figured he'd be
in your corner.

[laughs]
You know your opponent.

All right, I think
he's pulling up.

I better get out there.
[exhales sharply]

You know, come to think of it,
he's, uh,

probably gonna want
a hero shot of you out front.

You know, where the man
became the legend.

It's been all day.

[door closes]

You know it's a cicada year?
First one in our lifetime.

Yeah. Yeah, that's super cool.

[sniffs]

[clears throat]
Uh... what's happening?

What do you mean?

Uh...
[scoffs]

Y-You know, like, uh,
what's up with you and Todd?

We were together,
and now we're not.

Right.

But all year, you never really
gave me any clue that

this would be a situation
we'd ever be in, you know?

So analytical.

[laughs]: Yeah, yeah, yeah,
so... analytical.

I've been thinking about this
for a while.

Okay, uh, you know,
I really wanted to say

this perfect thing to you,
but I just...

I feel like this whole time
it's been really one-sided.

And, like, you're leaving.

And if we do something,
you're still leaving,

and I-I just will
think about what else

could have happened with us,
so... [exhales]

Yeah, I just, I-I don't want
this to be the version of us.

August, you think too much.

Yeah, yeah, I know.

I...

Look, I really wish we tried,

but... I feel like
it's too late.

So...

Have a great summer, Ruby.

My, my, how far
this city has come.

From hitchhikers
to phone apps.

All in the name
of progress, I guess.

So, what?
Polls really that tight,

you had to get one more scoop?

I gotta be honest,
I started out doing

a follow-up piece
on the Walkers;

-Liam and Cordell.
-Oh, here we go.

Trash talking one
of our best Rangers.

No. As far as I can tell
he's turned it around.

Including the arrests of

multiple North Side Nation members,

and helping in the
Detective Campbell case.

But, of course,
you know about that.

Yeah, Byron, I'm on the DPS.

What-what are you
getting at?

You were a little evasive
about the connection between

D.A. McLawson's retirement

and Detective Campbell's
arrest earlier.

-Oh, come on, don't start.
-I just wanted
to close the circle.

I think that's been
pretty well gone over.

A man of a certain age
wants to spend

more time fishing,
-more time with his family.
-With his family, yes.

That is a popular phrase
among politicians

with something to hide.

Do you have something to hide?

WALKER:
I wanted to be able to

look you in the eye again
without hate,

knowing the truth.

I want to be able
to tell you I'm sorry.

It was my decision.

Why?

For my family.

We needed the money,

and I'm a dying man,
so what do I matter?

I know you're a father.

Can't you understand that?

Why are you asking me all this?

Why don't you go bug
McLawson or Campbell?

I was at the county clerk's
office this morning.

Found out there are
a number of other cases

McLawson dismissed
that also had ties

to North Side Nation.

Well, what's that
got to do with me?

Like you said,
you're the DPS chair.

You signed off on
all the cases

that were dismissed.

This is, uh...

This is cold comfort.

I know that.

But when you confessed,

there was something
in your eyes.

Something that was behind 'em.

I remember feeling like

there was something
you weren't saying.

I'm in a place now

where I can admit to you

that we should have
asked more questions.

You're just a man
who lost his wife.

The people who
did that to you,

who did this to me,

they are the ones
that should pay.

-She's dead.
-Who?

Cali. The woman who
put you up to this.

The woman who... killed my wife.

She's dead now.

You said "they."

Hey, hold on, hold on.
Take it easy.

this is... [scoffs]

This is more cobbled together

than my Aunt Linda's
berry slump.

Tell me, wh-what's
really going on?

You know, I'm just trying
to understand why

you dismissed all those cases.

If there's something
you're not telling me... No, no! You're not hearing me!

All right? There's--
There's answers to all this.

Look, my truck is here.
Let's both of us,

we'll go down to my office--
Will you stop that?

We'll go down to my
office right now.

We'll go over all the cases.

You'll see everything's
on the up-and-up. Come on.

All right?
-What is wrong with you?
-You're hiding something, Stan.

-No, I'm not hiding something.
-It's gonna come out.

If you're gonna make
accusations like that,

you've got to let me
say my piece.

Hey.

Hey. Hey.

Cali came to see me the last
time I was in the hospital.

There was a man there with her.

Seemed like he was in charge.

-He put up the money.

His face...
His face is everywhere.

He's running for

I'm gonna insist on that.

Is there, uh, anything else
on your mind?

Nope.

Just trying to get
this mess cleaned up.

Actually, Liam was telling me
that you and Bonham were

talking about renewing vows;
you got a venue?

Oh, we don't need that.

No, listen.
Hey, hey, hey.

[whispering]:
Go all out on this.

don't have to clean up after.

You would do that?

Well... it might be fun.

Well, then, let's have some fun.

-Well, well!

I can see where your vote's
gonna be cast.

Where's that partner of yours?

Yeah, where is Cordi?

He went to visit
Carlos Mendoza at the hospital.

What did he go see
Mendoza for?

Maybe something you said
stuck with him

when you made his
reinstatement official.

Well, that's...

Yeah, he is.

Listen, uh...

over the years,
that's for sure.

But you're right.

There have been enough...
secrets around here.

What's going on
with my health

should be talked about
with the family.

Mind you, my dad
didn't tell us until

he was being
-wheeled in to surgery.
-Okay, that is not

the legacy we're
looking for, love.

Mm. Okay.

You know, Stan has
offered us his place

for some vow renewals,
if you want to get fancy.

Oh, did he?

Mm-hmm.

It'd be nice.

Make some happy memories
for this family.

Yeah.

-TREY: Amazing.
-KEESHA: I know it was.
I knew it was.

Hi.
Hey!

I'm sorry I missed today.

-These are for you.
-Aww.

Thank you.

And I am not ever
going to say no

to alone time with my son.

Don't worry, I brought
something for you, too.

Ah, banana bread?

Is it from that spot? Yeah![both laugh]

Let me get these in some water.

All right, Ma.

So what else did you
bring home? Booties,

or maybe a bonnet or something?

What kind of Victorian
fantasy are you living out?

[laughs]
Anyways,

you will have to wait.

Hmm?
I'm not pregnant.

And you are relieved.

You are.
I don't know.

I don't know what
I was hoping for.

It's good to think
about it, though.

Yeah. I agree.

I mean, I think I'm gonna be
a little bit more on top of

taking my pills, because
you're starting to scare me.

Oh, really?

No, actually.

I mean...

I do worry
about the future.

But, um,

not because it's bad.

Maybe because it's good.

I know you're worried about
that work-life balance.

Walker says no one ever
figures it out.

Maybe he's wrong.
