I hope you never thought
that because I changed my name,

- I wasn't proud to be your son.
- I get it.

It's easier
to be a Gary than a Javier.

Previously on
"A Million Little Things"...

We know what it's like
to suddenly lose your dad.

Lean on us.

Hi, little man.

You're here.

All this excitement
about the new baby,

it really got me thinking
about how much I miss Charlie.

We still live
in the apartment you found us.

How long have you been
working here?

I love it.

I especially
like helping those

that can't get into
full psych classes.

My dad's forgetting
a lot of things.

What if I wake up
and I don't know where I am?

What if we hang up
some of these pictures?

That's a good idea.

With my grandpa,
I lived in his reality.

And it got a lot easier
after that.

Fun fact-- your dad
just saw me naked.

What?

Which I prefer to me
seeing him naked.

What happened?

I was coming
out of the shower

and he walked into our bathroom
thinking it was his.

Oh, my God.
What did you say?

Something like, "Aaaaah!"

And what did he say?

Nothing.

Which thinking about it
is a little offensive.

Well,
maybe he didn't notice.

That's really offensive.

Let's not make a bigger deal
of this than it is.

Oh, says the guy who made us
stop using our handyman Felix

because he walked in on you
on the toilet?

You know,
I don't have that luxury.

I can't TaskRabbit
a new father-in-law.

The man has dementia.

Chances are
he won't even remember.

Hey, Pop!

Well,
we're about to find out.

Hi, son.

Regina.

Mmm,
something smells good.

Did someone make coffee?

See?

Did you guys know that espresso
means "pressed out" in Italian?

Relax,
that is long-term memory.

That was a "Jeopardy!" answer
last night.

Mmm.

Well, gentlemen,

that's my cue to leave
and never come back.

It's been fun.

And I'm putting Felix back
in the rotation.

Great, can you get him to fix
the lock on the bathroom door?

Captions by VITAC--

Okay,
tightly kept secret--

I invented waffles.

Do you believe me?

I know they were undercooked

the first week
and overcooked the second week,

but I think
these are perfect.

Charlie, look at this.

Hey, T, come on.

I know, Dad,
no screens at the table.

But I want to show
Charlie something.

This is a video
of you being born.

Oh, my gosh!

Where did you get that?

Is that--
Is that from my Dropbox?

Your password is weak, Dad.

Weak!

Charlie,
this is you being born.

Your Uncle Gary helped get me
to the delivery room in time.

Wait, Dad, you're walking?

Uh... oh.

It's okay, T.

Yes, Charlie,
I used to be able to walk.

What happened?

Good question.

Well, I wasn't being careful
when I crossed the street.

And a car hit me.

It wasn't your fault!

The driver wasn't
paying attention,

probably
texting and driving.

But Wheelchair Dad
is so much cooler.

Thank you, T.

Do you have any other questions, sweetie?

Yeah.
Why is Mommy so bloody?

Okay. Yep.

We are just gonna change
that password.

Who would like
some yummy syrup?

- Yes, please.
- Yes, please?

You want it all?
Oh--

Whoa!

What time is your aunt
coming over?

I told her 3:00.

Wait, but that's
during Javi's nap time.

Yeah, I don't want her
to meet him.

I just want to give her the box
of her stuff that my dad has.

And she can walk out
of my life...

again.

Wow, seems like you're in
a really good place about this.

I am, actually.

When I was a kid and she and
my dad had their falling out,

I didn't understand why I had
to get caught up in it.

But now-- now
I'm good.

I mean, when she saw
my mother leave,

you might think Inez
would have been like,

"Oh, Gary could use a female
presence in his life."

But she didn't do that.

So that's why you will
never meet her.

You will never ever meet her,
no, you won't.

No, you won't.

Yeah,
you're totally over it.

Alex, Alex Shar.

We have an appointment.
What is taking so long?

Ooh, your mom's gone
into angry mode.

This should be good.

Yes?
I'm sorry.

Do you know how much longer
it's gonna be?

We've been waiting
for 40 minutes.

Like I told you 10 minutes ago,
the doctor's running behind.

She should be with you
very soon.

Y-Yeah, but you said
that 10 minutes ago.

I don't mean
to be a pain...

Okay.

Actually,
this could get ugly.

She'll be with you as soon
as she can.

Thank you so much.

Uh, how'd that go?

I think I just bought us 10
extra minutes of waiting time.

Which means that somebody
needs to go feed the meter.

Do you want to go
or should I?

I don't know.
Let's work through this.

It could be you,
who are already standing up

with a purse
full of loose change.

Or it could be me, who's
sitting down holding a baby

who hasn't been this serene
since he was in your womb.

What do you think?
It's gotta be your call.

- Yeah, okay, I can go.
- Yeah.

Uh, just don't forget
the burp cloth.

On my shoulder.

And if you need
another diaper...

It's in the diaper bag.

If you change the diaper,

make sure you put it
in a Ziploc bag,

so it doesn't get
on the diaper bag.

Ooh,
or I could throw it out.

Unless there's a reason
that you're keeping them?

You know what? Maybe I should
stay and you should go.

Bloom, unless there's something
you haven't told me,

I am the boy's father.

If I can't watch our son
for the 38 seconds

it takes you to go down
to feed a meter...

38 seconds?
What am I, Flo Jo?

On your mark, get set... Okay, but keep him upright

so he doesn't choke
on his own spit.

- Go, go, go, go, go, go.
- I'm going, going.

Go!
I'm going. I'm going.

That is your mom,
and we love her very much,

but if you grow up
and you're neurotic,

that's who you blame.

Although, don't tell her
I said that.

Which I get is a bit neurotic.

Javier Mendez?

Shhhh...

Ay, que lindo!

Tiene sus ojos!

Uh...

I d-- I actually
don't speak Spanish.

Oh, I'm so sorry.

I just saw the name... Yeah, that's okay.

We named him Javier Mendez.

That's on us.

Well, what I was saying
is that he has your eyes.

Oh, thank you.

I'm here!

I'm back.

Hi.

Whew!
We're all here!

Okay, well, Mom, Dad,

you ready to take
this little one back?

- Sure.
- Yeah.

- You want him?
- Is everything okay?

- Yeah.
- I was talking to the baby.

Hey. Hey.

Let's go.

Yeah.

Let's go get checked up.

Hold up, hold up. Mm.

Not done with the other side.
Come here!
Oh, wow!

Charlie,
I love your pig-tails.

You ladies make it look so easy.
It's not.

- Did I do okay?
- Sure...

if it's a Picasso meets
Pippi Longstocking thing

- you're going for.
- Feel free to tag in.

Oh, thank you.

Charlie, we are gonna
get you all fixed up. Oh.

There you go.

I feel like that's exactly
what I did.

- I don't know.
- Cutest hair in daycare.

You look great.

Okay, double high five.

Go be a child.
Go have fun.

Be-- Oh!
Get in there.

Go.

In my defense,
the last time I saw her,

our hair
was the same length.

How has it been
having her back?

Amazing.
A lot of work, but amazing.

It is going to be
a fun month.

And luckily, Danny's here, too,
to help me when it's less fun.

Well,
if you ever need anything... Oh, no.

Between paying for our tickets
to the aquarium last week

and the homemade lasagna
you brought over,

you've done so much already.

Even before you opened the
little pop-up hair salon here.

It's the least I can do.

So, Mr. Mom,
what's your day looking like?

Well, not too busy.

I drop Theo off at school,

then I drop Charlie off at
school, then I go to school,

and as soon as I'm done
with school,

I pick Charlie up from school,
then I pick Theo up from school.

I've already dropped Theo off,
so I'm 1/12th of the way done.

God, I'm tired.

Oh, Nicole, Eddie.

Didn't you get
the e-mail blast?

What?
About the bake sale?

Yeah. I'm on it.

Expect some lemon bars
coming your way soon.

No, not that.

We had to close today.

There was a lice outbreak.

So we're asking everyone
to stay home

so those little critters
don't get our little critters.

We should be okay
for tomorrow, though.

Looking forward
to those lemon bars.

Ooh.

I did not see
that one coming.

On the plus side,
since you just spent,

I'm guessing,
the last two hours

doing Charlie's hair,

you know
she doesn't have lice.

That is a plus side
of this situation.

Hi. Here you go.

Have a nice day.

You know, Dottie,
when I pitched you my idea

for Free Food Fridays,

I thought you'd just help
get the city to pay for it.

I wasn't expecting you
to be this hands on.

Gina, this was your idea.

And I am just honored
to be a part of it.

And it may even help your
business get some great press.

Oh, well, that's not why
I'm doing it,

but I don't hate that.

Well, I think we make
a great team.

I think so, too.

Here you go.

I wanted to talk to you about
a few other ideas I had.

Mm-hmm.

Getting food to people
is great,

but it's really
just a Band-Aid.

There's so many other things
the city could be doing.

Councilwoman Lewis!

Raju, you made it!

That's great!

You guys can set up
over there.

Okay.
I'll get the team.

Thank you. Great.

Is that Raju Perera
from Channel 5?

Yeah.

I thought it'd be
great exposure.

Hope you don't mind.

Do I mind Channel 5
putting my food truck on TV?

Somehow I think
I'll be okay with it.

Here you go.
Another big hug.

Sweetie, I'm gonna pick you up
right after school, okay?

Mwah!

Kiss Amélie, too!

Oh, okay.

Mwah!

Both cheeks.

Someone's been in France
too long.

Go get your backpack.

Are you sure you're okay
to take her?

Professor Craft already
doesn't like you,

and something tells me
that waltzing into her class

with a 4-year-old isn't gonna
make you teacher's pet.

Unless it's a 4-year-old
with perfect pig-tails.

What do you think?

Ooh! Check it out.

I think we found
patient zero.

Just scratching away.

I love you, too.

Um...

I'll text you as soon
as my class is over.

- Yeah, okay. Great.
- Have fun, baby.

Come on, Charlie.

Let's go.

I'll only be gone
for a little while.

Sleep well.

Love you.

Cry if you need anything.

You know, Bloom,
crying is instinctual.

But, uh, I guess it's good
to remind him of his options.

Maybe I shouldn't go.

What?
No, you have to go!

You-- You made a plan, right?

Claire's already
all Lululemon'd up.

It's only 90 minutes.

You don't even have to run
the whole time.

You and Claire can argue over
who's the best dad, me or Evan?

Wait, you mean you or
the guy who's making his kid

homemade baby food?

He's not doing that.

Hm.

He's doing that?

Okay,
run the whole time.

I'll have my phone
if you need anything.

Wait, where's my phone?

Have you checked the giant blood
pressure cuff on your arm?

Found it.

I should stay
and meet your aunt.

It would be rude not to.

That's exactly why
I want you to go.

Because everyone in my life
who means anything is not here.

Except for the...

baby.
The baby who's
sleeping in the--

It was a figure of speech,
but you get it.

You're gonna have fun!
Come on.

It's your friend, right?

Yeah!
Run.

Run like the wind.
I love you.

Aww.
I love you.

Mwah!

I just-- I--
Scram.

Alexa... what's a good recipe
for mashed carrots?

I'm here in Boston,
on the Freedom Trail,

where local business owner
Regina Howard

and Councilwoman Dottie Lewis
have joined forces

to help feed the homeless
in their community.

Councilwoman Lewis,
can you tell us

how this project
came to be?

I was just so moved by this
small businesswoman's passion

for the issue that I just
had to get involved.

But I'm just
a pair of hands.

The person you should be
talking to is Regina Howard.

Hm? Huh?
Oh, yeah, hi.

Sorry.

Uh,
this is all so incredible.

When I first pitched the idea
of Free Food Fridays

to Councilwoman Lewis,
within 24 hours,

she found the money
to sponsor this event.

Most politicians
in this city

say they want
to help the homeless.

But Councilwoman Lewis
is actually doing something.

Well, I think
that says it best.

Reporting from Downtown Boston,
this is Raju Perera.

Back to you at the studio.

Clear.

Thank you, Raju.

Thank you.

Oh, Gina, I had no idea
how late it was.

I've got a 3:00.

But great work.

You should be proud
of what you've done.

What we've done.

Oh, it's all you.

I'm just here
to support it.

Thank you.

Hi. Yes.

Here you go.

All right...

Evan.

Now let's see who's
Father of the Year.

Ugh!

Uuuugh!

Still you.

God, you mash 'em up,
they're still carrots.

I can't believe people
put these in cake.

She's alive!

Don't worry.
I got your back, Pop.

Inez.

Wow, look at you.

You're a man now.

Yeah, it's crazy what happens
when you miss

all my formative years.

I understand
that you're hurt.

But not inviting me
to his funeral...

You lost your dad,
but I lost my brother.

But you asking me to come over
means the world to me.

So I just want to put
all of this behind us.

Let me, uh...

Let me be really clear,

the only reason
I reached out to you

is because my dad
has this box of stuff

he's been holding on to
for 25 years.

This isn't
about reconciling.

This is about
closet space.

Well, okay, then.

I guess I should go.

That sounds right.

Look, I'm sorry your dad
didn't agree with me,

but the only reason
I pushed it

was because
I was looking out for you.

Pushed what?
What are you talking about?

Do you even know why your dad
and I were fighting?

Because you were stubborn
and selfish

and way too busy
criticizing him

when what you
should've been doing

was help him be
- a single father.
- Mm-hmm.

And did he tell you what I was
so busy criticizing him about?

Everything.

Oh, no, no, no.

Not everything.

One thing-- Gary.

Oh, right.
You were fighting about me.

No.

We were fighting
about your name,

and your dad
letting you change it.

And you came home from camp
that summer and told your dad

you didn't want to be
Javier anymore.

And he told you
that was okay.

But I didn't think
it was.

I didn't think you should be
ashamed of being Mexican.

Nor did I think
you should hide it,

even if it would
be easier for you

to go through life
as Gary.

He agreed with me,

but didn't want me
to say anything.

He said that regardless
of what he and I thought,

it was your decision,
and he wanted to support you.

He told me I should either
get on board or leave.

So I left.

You have a baby?

Yeah.

Yeah, I'll--
I'll be right back.

Hey, buddy.

I set it up so that when I go
back to work next week,

the classes I teach
are only during the day.

And Evan's stand-up sets
are at night,

- so we can just tag team.
- Great.

Only downside is we'll
never see each other.

So Eleanor's never
getting a sibling.

But other than that,
yeah, it's perfect.

Um, excuse me.
What are you doing?

Oh,
is that your teacher voice?

I love it.
Thank you.

But seriously,
what are you doing?

Just making a playlist
for the run.

You kiss your son
with that lying mouth?

I just want to make sure
that Javi--
We promised.

Okay, fine.

We both get one check,
and then we go.

Oh, well, in that case,
I already got mine.

I checked while you were
- lacing up.
- Wow.

Okay. We're here.

We're wearing sports bras.
Let's run.

Stupid sports bras.

Remember where we parked.

- Level 1?
- Eh.

I'm counting this as part
of our running time.

Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh!

Come on, pal. Shh, shh.

Is that soothing?
Huh?

It's supposed to be
soothing, pal.

Shh, shh, shh, shh,
shh, shh, shh, shh.

What on earth
are you doing?

Maggie and I took
a class, okay?

- Uh-huh.
- Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.

Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.

It worked on the doll.

Okay, come on.
Hand me the baby.

- What? No. No, no, no, no. No.
- What?

Whatever I'm gonna do
can't be worst than that.

Come on.

Uh...
Okay, all right.

But, you know, just be,
you know, gentle, when you...

Oh, boy.
There you go.

I don't know why
he's so cranky.

It's...

What?

That's-- That's--
That's pretty good.

I did the same thing to you
when you were a baby.

Worked every time.

Before you take too big
of a victory lap,

I'm not sure shoving
a boy's face in a pair of boobs

is quite as groundbreaking
as you think it is.

Hi.

I'm your Tia Inez.

Ooh,
you are such a pretty boy.

My goodness.

Yeah.

What's his name?

Javier.

Your father would be
so proud of you.

Yeah, how about you?

Well, I'm just
an old Mexican lady

with a lot of time alone
to think.

When I said what I said
to your dad, I believed it.

And I still do.

But in time,
I've realized

that it wasn't worth
losing my brother over.

And it wasn't worth
losing you.

I miss him so much.

Me, too.

But being with you
right now,

I feel like he's here.

I know what he'd say
if he was.

What?

He'd say, "Inez, stop
motorboating my grandson."

Ooh, ooh, ooh. Sorry.
Earmuffs, my bad.

And at this place,
the first topping is free.

I may have been here before.

Hi, Maggie.

A few times.

I know
what I'm ordering,

but I'm still sampling
everything anyway.

I love you so much.

Hi,
what are the new flavors?

And you sure Charlie
doesn't have lice?

Yes.

You're absolutely sure?

I am positive.

Okay.
But just to be safe,

I'm gonna need you to check me
when we get home.

I'm feeling kinda itchy.

Theo,
that is psychosomatic.

Oh, my God.

I'm feeling itchy now, too.

Okay.
Okay, good news.

Chef Dad is making
dinner tonight.

You have your choice between
two very special entrées.

Do your sophisticated
palates prefer

chicken nuggets
or mac n' cheese?

Theo?

Dad, we have a microwave
and a toaster.

Why do we have to pick?

That sounds like one combo
platter for Master Theo.

And, Charlie,
what'll it be?

I'll have mac n' cheese,
and Amélie with have...

Wait, where is Amélie?

Oh, um, maybe she fell
behind the seat.

T, can you see her?

Um, no.

Oh, no!
I left her at Nicole's!

- We have to go get her!
- Okay.

Okay, I'm gonna call her
right now.

Who's Nicole?

She is a friend of mine
from school.

Oh.

Okay, all right,
less talking

and get those desks
in place, please.

Uh, hey, Mr. Howard.

Um, my dad offered
to bring us pizza

for after
the meet tomorrow.

Your dad's coming?
Yeah.

He's, uh-- He's taking off
early from work.

Said he wanted
to come support me.

Maddox, that's amazing.

It kind of is.

Thank you, again.

Of course.

Hey, do me a favor.

Okay, so, look, here's the deal
with tomorrow's meet--

We know, Mr. Howard.

It's not about
whether we win or lose,

the important part
is to have fun.

Be a good sport.

Oh, Bri,
that would be Plan A.

I'm leaning more
toward Plan B.

When I went here, Devonshire
whipped us in the finals

and they were not
gracious about it.

So I'm counting on all of you
to get in there

and kick some ass,
graciously, right?

Graciously
kick some ass.

Finish setting up
for me?

Hey, there.

Do you know
where your dad is?

Uh, yeah.
He's at home.

I just talked to him
about an hour ago.

Well, I mean,
I tried to.

It ended abruptly
because he was mad

at something
that happened on the TV.

He probably just didn't answer
because he's busy

yelling at Judge Mathis for some
ruling he doesn't agree with.

No.

I'm home.
He's not here.

Well, did you check
his bathroom?

Yes,
and I checked our bathroom.

No sign.

Oh, no.

What?

My keys are gone.

I think he took my car.

I'm supposed to start
debate team,

but I can get
someone to cover.

Okay. I'll--
I'll check with the neighbors.

Should I--
Should we call the police?

Rome?

What are you doing?
Come on.

Gina, my dad's here.
Oh, thank God.

- I gotta go.
- Yeah, you gotta go.

I've been waiting outside
the last 20 minutes.

What-- What are
you doing here?

It's 3:30.

I gotta get you and your brother
to hockey practice.

I wanna talk to the coach
about playing Omar more.

Dad, come on.

Come on.

Have a seat. No.

I'm not letting your brother
ride the bench.

We gotta go.
Grab your stuff.

I'm gonna use
the restroom again.

I've been peeing
all morning.

I'm sorry.

My-- My dad's having
a particularly bad day.

I'll try to be back
as soon as I can.

Uh, hey, Mr. Howard.

I think your dad
may have a UTI.

Sometimes when an older person's
body is fighting an infection,

they can get
a little disoriented.

How do you know that?

I-I sometimes volunteer--Walter: Rome!

Yeah, I'm co--
Thank you.

I'm coming, Pop.

Mm.

Not ours.

As you were.

Mmm!

You have to try this.

They got the salt level
just right.

Oh, my God, they did.

- Mm-hmm.
- Here, try some of mine.

The pumpkin with
the cinnamon spice

tastes exactly like
you're eating pie.

Mmm!
Why aren't we eating pie?

Mmm, oh, you spilled
some ice cream.

Oh, my God.
That's not, um...

I'm leaking.

Oh. Oh.

God,
it's so embarrassing.

Has this been happening
to you, too?

Oh, Maggie.

I am so sorry.

I totally forgot.

No, it's fine.

Are you okay?

Yeah.

I can't
believe that I'm jealous

of not leaking through
the sports bra I barely use.

I know I have a pretty good
excuse for not breastfeeding,

but I just feel like I'm missing
out on bonding with Javier.

You know, ever since
he was born, I've just--

I've been doing everything
I can to compensate

for not being able to do the one
thing that I'm supposed to do.

Listen to me--
"supposed to."

Look, I know, it is just
a dumb societal norm.

There are women
who can't breastfeed

and some who choose not to
and that's fine.

I always knew that this is how
it was gonna be for me.

It's just now that it's real, I...

I feel so guilty.

I'm starting to think that
that's what motherhood is--

just a constant
feeling of guilt.

Well, in that case,
I'm crushing it.

How was school today?

Oh, God.

It's--
I-I-It was fine.

Listen, son.

Mom and I know how tough
it's been for you here.

Dad...

But you just gotta try
to make friends.

I-I-It's harder to pick
on a kid when he's in a group.

Are you okay?

Actually, no, Dad.

Something happened
at that water fountain.

What?

Some kids thought it would
be funny

to put a "Whites Only"
sign over it.

- They can't do that.
- Well, they did.

So even if I am
winning them over,

those the kind of kids you and
Mom want me to be friends with?

Hi, Mr. Howard.

Hello.
Hi, Lana.

Wait a minute.

You teach here.

I do.

But that water fountain thing
really happened.

I remember that.

It did.

Why'd you stay here?

Because you said
I had to.

You said, "If someone
throws milk in your face,

you throw
two glasses back."

You wanted me to have
the best education.

And you said this was it.

Well, I was wrong.

This wasn't the right place
for you, son.

Thank you.

Why would you teach here?

Because I'm trying to make
this place into the school

you thought it could be.

You know, I probably
don't say this enough...

...but I am proud of you.

I appreciate that.

I'm sorry
about my memory.

Oh, no.

Don't worry.

I'm gonna remember this
for the both of us.

What the hell
did you do that for?

Because I want you to remember
this moment forever, too, Pop.

Come on.

Next time, how 'bout you just
put it on a Post-It?

Amélie!

Hi!

Go play with Julian.

Wait.
I've been here.

Isn't this the apartment
we were gonna live in?

Uh, yeah.

T, this is Nicole.

Hi.

I know you.

You work
at the craft store.

You helped us find glitter
when I made that thing

for my girlfriend.

Wait.

You said Nicole's
a friend from school.

Did you know her when we were
in the craft store?

Uh, no.

I, um...

Then how do you know her?

How do you know her,
Dad?

Well, Nicole and I met when...

um...

she...

I am
a friend from school.

But I used to work
at the craft store.

That was before I met your dad, officially.

That still doesn't explain

how you ended up
in this apartment.

You will have
to excuse my son.

He likes to cross-examine.

My mom's a lawyer.

Your dad gave this apartment up
so I could live here.

Julian's father and I
were fighting a lot.

And I didn't feel safe.

And when your dad
heard that,

he was kind enough
to let me move in here.

Do you feel safe now?

Yeah.

I really do.

Thanks to your dad.

He's done so much
for me.

I wish I could find a way
to pay him back.

Well, if you still have
that employee discount,

maybe you could get him
some art supplies.

Oh, but not glitter.
That's been canceled.

Okay, Counselor,
if the defense rests,

why don't we let Nicole and
Julian get on with their night?

Charlie, come on.

Actually, I was about
to make dinner.

Do you guys
want to stay?

That depends.
Do you have chicken nuggets?

Dinosaur and spaceship.

We're in. Okay.

Thank you for letting me
meet Javi.

He is amazing.

How long till you
change his name to Steve?

Look,
I know you gotta rush off,

but, uh, I'd like it
if you came back,

you know,
met Maggie sometime.

Oh, I'd love that.
Yeah?

Yeah.

Good.

Inez, uh...

I'm sorry I didn't invite you
to the funeral.

Ah, that's okay.

That way I didn't have
to chip in.

Oh, there's something in here
you should have.

"Javier, este es el libro que
te regalé el día que naciste.

Con mucho cariños,
tu Tia Inez."

I...

It means,
"Javier, this is the book

I gave you on the day
you were born.

Love always, Aunt Inez."

I used to read this to you
when you were a kid.

In fact, it was the first book
you ever read.

I could read Spanish?

Well, you could speak it.

That's crazy.

I-- I don't remember
any of it.

Well...

You know, sometimes when people
speak it in front of me, I--

I get embarrassed.

I wish I did speak Spanish.

If only so that I could,
you know, teach it to my son.

Gary, you don't need to speak
Spanish to be Mexican.

You're Mexican because
you were born into this family.

And you can
learn Spanish again

through teaching Javi.

Oh, gosh.
The graphic
of the 7-day forecast,

you can see that
high pressure system... Walter.

...pretty nasty weather
we might be feeling

here in the city. It's like we're living with
a 77-year-old teenager.

And now, our very own
Raju Perera

went to Downtown Boston
where he met

the two women instrumental
in putting together

today's event--
Free Food Fridays.

Oh, my God! I'm on TV!

I'm here in Boston
on the Freedom Trail,

where local business owner
Regina Howard...

...and Councilwoman
Dottie Lewis

have joined frces to help
feed... Dottie: Hello?
Hi, Dottie.

...the homeless
in their community. I know you gave me
your cellphone

for emergencies only,
but we're on the news!

Oh, I know.

I'm watching it right now,
and it's great.

Thanks.

Listen, while I have you,
I was thinking for next Friday,

I could contact some
other local food trucks,

see about getting some
more donations, maybe--

Oh, you know what, Gina?

It's going to be tough
to commit

any more resources
to this project.

I thought you said
it was a great idea?

And it was.

We fed some needy people,
your business got some press,

and so did I.

I was just so moved by this
small businesswoman's passion

for the issue that
I just had to get involved.

Uh, yeah, kinda convenient
you got such good press

in an election year.

Yeah, I guess so.

Everybody wins.

Listen, Gina, I gotta go.
Take care of yourself.

And don't forget to vote.

Most politicians in this city

say they want
to help the homeless,

but Councilwoman Lewis
is actually doing something.

Well,
I think that says it best.

Reporting from Downtown Boston,
this is Raju Perera.

All right, Walter.

Just make sure you take
your antibiotic

when your stomach
is full.

And your doctor said your UTI
should clear up in a few days.

So you're saying it's only
a matter of time

before I'm only peeing
12 times a day?

Look at it as a way
to get your steps in.

Thanks for
a great afternoon, son.

It was nice to see you
in action with your students.

Oh, Pop,
they loved you.

Mm.

Uhp! Gotta go.

"Wheel's" on.

You guys are good
to clean up, right?

Of course.

Oh, uh, um...

This is gonna seem
like a crazy question,

but earlier...

Oh, God.

...did you
kiss me on the lips?

Yes.
I did, Pop.

Oh, right.

It was after we talked
about that stuff.

Exactly.

Mm-hmm.

You kissed
your dad on the lips?

Don't ask.

I can't explain it, but I swear,
chicken nuggets taste better

when they're dinosaur-shaped.

Hey, listen,
from now on,

when people ask how we know
each other...

I just want to say
we're friends.

I'm good with that.

Are you?

You know, it's just...

obviously the way we met
was not great.

Wait.
How did we meet again?

I'm glad you're joking about it,
because I am over it.

I'm just not sure
that you are.

I'm not.

And I don't think
you are either.

How can you be?

Look, obviously, I'd prefer
to have the use of my legs,

but this situation has
taught me how strong I am.

A lot stronger than me.

The more you get me into classes
and my kid into daycare

and make us dinners,

it feels like you're trying
to repay a debt

instead of just
being my friend.

I've just--

I've been trying
to make up for what happened.

And what I'm saying is...
you don't have to.

In that case...

you dry the dishes.

I made the dinner.

Well, I didn't say it had
to start right now!

Ow! Oh, no.

Now I can't use
my left arm either.

You're such a baby.

Boy, between seeing me naked

and you kissing him
on the lips,

your dad has seen
a lot of action living here.

Him living here
isn't working, Gina.

We got lucky today.

But what if he'd wandered off
to somewhere

where we couldn't find him?

I know.

I can ask Val to take more
shifts, be home earlier.

No, no.

We both can't be here to keep an
eye on him every single second.

And he needs someone watching
him every single second.

You're right.

With him starting that fire
and going MIA today,

there's been more
than a few close calls.

I know you didn't want
to consider it,

but maybe we think about
putting him in assisted living.

This man raised me

for the first 18 years
of my life.

And I-I can barely even take
care of him for three months.

This is different.

Being a good son means
making sure your father

is safe
and taken care of.

You're a good son.

"La gallenita"-- What?

You think it's guy-a--
guy-a-nita?

It doesn't matter
if I'm saying it wrong.

You don't know.

You have no idea. Hm?

- Oh, look, Mama's home.
- Ah.

Javi's teaching me Spanish,

you know,
in between poopy diapers.

Oh.

You were gone for a minute.
How was your run?

Oh, it was fun...
when we weren't crying.

What?

It was just really hard
to be away today.

It's like my heart
is outside of my body.

Oh, she missed me, pal.

How'd it go with Inez?

Uh, got off to a bit
of a rough start.

But, uh, in the end,
she gave me this--

this book of Spanish children's
stories that I had as a kid.

Now I'm reading them
to our son and our dog.

You're welcome to join us.
If you'll have me, yeah.

"And so, in the end,
the little chicken found

its way home where
the White Devil wife..."

It does not say that.

It might!
You don't know.

Does the White Devil Wife
wanna order pizza?

Yes, she does.

Extra pepperoni.

Oh, wow,
it does say "esposa."
