[Announcer]
Previously on Kyle XY...

Why are you acting so weird?

Nicole says it's because
I like you.

Don't you like me?

Yeah, I do.

My dad was notorious
for breaking promises.

I don't want to be
that kind of father.

You're not;
you're a great father.

My sister Jessi, she's been
having some problems.

We're hoping that you might
be able to sit down with her.

[Jessi]
It's a really
pretty necklace.

Thanks. It's a remnant
from my Declan days.

Jessi, we're leaving.

You can't tell me what to do!

[people screaming]

Foss!

I want to tell you everything.

I'm ready to hear it.

Foss did this?

Uh!

[Kyle narrating]
Life is full of regrets.

But no matter
how hard you try,

you can't change the past.

Lori had been attacked.

No one was sure
who did it or why.

And all I could focus on
was how I wasn't able

to stop it from happening.

Hey.

Dad, you have to stop
doing this.

And you, do I speak
with a British accent?

No.

Am I wearing a crown?
No.

Then stop guarding my door like
I'm Queen freakin' Elizabeth.

Sorry.

He's just worried about you.

I gathered.

Sweetie, I know you're just
trying to be strong,

but what happened,
it's a lot to deal with.

What happened is I became one
with my inner liberal

and got hate-crimed for it.

As far as I'm concerned,
this is my badge of honor.

How's she doing today?

Apparently, better than I am.

When I look at her
it breaks my heart.

Yeah, I feel the same way,
but we have to keep it together,

and make her feel safe
and comfortable.

How about whipping up
some sympathy pancakes?

What? She likes them
and I'm in the mood.

[sighs]
I'll be right down.

Me first.

All yours.

[phone ringing]
I hope that's the police
with news for Lori.

I already spoke to them.

There are still no leads
or eye witnesses.

And since Lori can't
identify her attacker,

then they're at a dead end.

A Dr. Keel is on the phone.

Dr. Keel?

She's calling from the hospital
about a patient:

a William Trager.

Who is he?

He's my father.

Hello.
Yeah, this is his son.

I didn't know Stephen's father
lived in town.

How long has he been sick?

I don't know.
They haven't spoken in years.

It's complicated.

He had a stroke last night.

Looks like he's not
going to make it.

I'm so sorry, Stephen.

Is there anything
I can do to help?

No, there's nothing to do.

I said good-bye
to my father years ago.

Are things really that bad
between them?

I always hoped they'd manage
to repair things,

but doesn't look like
that's going to happen.

[Narrating]
Adam Baylin said
I would touch the world,

but what good
is having a gift

if I couldn't help
the people I loved the most?

♪♪ [theme]

You didn't have to come.

I know you told
everyone not to,

but I want to meet
your father.

He's in coma, you know?
He can't communicate.

I understand.

[sighs]

Been a long time
since I've seen him.

This wasn't how I envisioned
our next meeting.

Would you rather go in alone?

No.

[respirator hissing]
[EKG beeping]

[Woman]
Mr. Trager.

Yes?

I'm Dr. Keel.

Hi, nice to meet you.

Hi.

So, how's he doing?

Well, I'm afraid there's
been no improvement.

Can he hear us?

This machine monitors
his neural patterns.

The readings indicate
that he can't.

I'll give you
some time with him.

That's probably for the best
that he doesn't know I'm here.

Do you really think that?

Yeah. I was a big
disappointment to him.

He never agreed with
how I chose to live my life.

Never listened...

never cared.

[shrill tone]

Are you okay?

Yeah. I'm fine.

God, how long were you
standing there?

Six seconds.

I haven't seen you since
you threw that hissy fit

at the dance.

I got mad at my sister.

Remind me never to cross you.

So, what's up?

Uh, I have a session
with your mom today.

Oh, I get it.

You came by
for a damage report.

Well...

You look awful.

Wow. Blunt.

Does it hurt?

Looks worse than it is.

I just hope the cops
nail the bastard who did this.

The police?

You know, blue hats,
shiny badges?

Why would they be involved?

Last time I checked
the statutes,

assault was still a crime.

A crime?

Yeah.

Plus, the creep who did this
stole the necklace

Declan gave me
and I want it back.

So, are we done
with 20 Questions?

I only asked four.

Right. Well, you don't want
to keep my mom waiting.

What's up, baby?

Come on, Declan.
Let's move!

Come on!
Heads up!

Come on, baby!

Game!

Nice shot.
Is that all you got?

Good job, baby.
Did good, bro.

You okay?

I didn't sleep much
last night.

How are you doing?

You mean now that I know
the whole truth about you?

I'll never look
at science class the same,

that's for sure.

I know it was a lot to take in.

You can say that again.

But don't.

How's Lori?

She's dealing.

You should stop by.
I'm sure she'd appreciate it.

I want to,
but what about Foss?

We can't be sure it was him.

The cops cleared everyone
who was at The Rack,

which can only mean one thing:
your boy Foss is guilty.

I just can't imagine
he would go so far.

Because he's such
a model citizen.

The guy's offed how many people
that we know about?

So believing he can
knock Lori around

is not that big a stretch.

I should have seen it coming.

I could have done
something to prevent it.

Kyle, the guy's
a frickin' psycho.

You're not responsible
for what he did.

You haven't heard
from him, have you?

Not since he left last week.

And I have no idea
where to find him.

What are you going to do
if he comes back?

I have to figure that out.

Meanwhile, you should
check on Lori.

At least for now
I think it's safe.

[Jessi]
Lori seems fine.

Well, appearances
can be deceiving.

What do you mean?

Sometimes people project
what they want others to see,

even if it's not
an accurate representation

of who they are.

We can be different
than who we appear to be?

[scribbling]

Are you writing that down?

Not exactly.

Sometimes I record
what you say.

Other times, just my thoughts
and impressions.

About me?

Well, yes.

Can I read them?

Jessi, they're confidential.

You know that.

Let's talk about Emily.

Now, when she insisted
that you leave the dance,

is that the way
she normally behaves

when she's upset with you?

I guess.

I know everybody thinks
she's so nice,

but she's not.

She just...appears to be.

What do you mean?

She's always saying
that she's in control...

telling me where to go
and who to be with.

Sometimes, I'm just
really scared around her.

[tapping]

[Narrating]
Ever since my trip
to the hospital,

I felt like I was in a fog.

But as my head cleared,
an image appeared in my mind.

I didn't know what it was
or why I was drawing it.

I just knew
I had to get it out.

[Lori]
Dad?

Hey, guys.
What's up?

We figured you weren't
feeling that great...

Want to go to a movie
or something?

Our treat.

Wait, you'll actually be seen
at a movie with me?

At a time like this,
I'm willing to risk
the embarrassment.

So you're really okay, then?

Shouldn't I be
asking you that?

Dad, your father's
in the hospital.

My face will heal.

Grandpa had a chance
to be part of our lives

and he chose not to be.

Do any of you recognize this?

It's a church, dude.

That's St. Augustine.

How do you know that?

My father belonged
to the congregation.

He wanted me and your mom
to get married there.

Why did you draw this?

I don't know,
it just came to me.

I must have seen it recently.

You couldn't have.

This church was torn down
years ago.

No St. Augustine
in this one, either.

Well, he had to have seen it
in one of these.

Check it out,
our first apartment.

Yeah, if you can call
a basement sublet

with bad plumbing and mice
an apartment.

Hey, I loved it.

I did, too.
[chuckles]

Oh, you were so beautiful.

I was afraid you were going
to wise up at the last minute.

We could have gotten married
at the church, you know?

I would have
gone along with it.

You remember how he was.

He had to put his stamp
on everything.

If I didn't make a stand
with our wedding,

he would have barked
religion at us

for the rest of our lives.

Instead he just
didn't come at all.

I know we both made mistakes.

Maybe you should try
talking to him.

I know he can't hear you,

but saying the words
might be enough.

I got nothing to say to him.

Not a single picture
of the church.

How the hell
did Kyle draw this?

My Grandfather
sent Kyle the image.

But he's in a coma.

Like that's going
to stop Kyle?

Just when I'm ready
to cross "alien" off my list,

you pull another stunt
and suck me back in.

I don't do stunts.

You know what I mean.

Something unexplainable.

It is explainable.

I'm listening.

Okay, I can't
explain it...yet,

but whatever it is,
I'm sure there's a logical
scientific explanation.

Don't be so sure.

Maybe it's divine intervention.

Boring.

Divine intervention?

Maybe God wants you
to help Stephen make peace
with his father.

Do you really think
that's possible?

With you, anything's possible.

♪♪ [pop rock]

[gasps]
Oh.

I really wish people
would stop sneaking up on me.

Sorry.

How you doing?
Fine.

I never knew there were
so many shades of purple.

You're painting your room?

Time to change it up in here.

Lori, seriously,
are you okay?

Did you expect to find me
in the fetal position?

I-I wouldn't blame you.

Look, some coward jumped me.

I'm not going to let him
get the best of me.

Well, that's great,
but I also think

you can let yourself
freak out a little.

Are you going
to Preston's party this week?

Thinking about it.
Are you?

I'm sure everyone's
expecting me to hide,
but I'm going.

You su--
Maybe I'll see you there.

I hate hospitals.

They're always so cold.

The colder temperature helps
prevent the spread of viruses.

The least they could do
is paint the walls,

make it feel warmer.

Was it difficult to see
your father this way?

How did you--

Oh, yeah, you're you.

Do you think
he knows we're here?

The doctor said no.

He can't be sure, right?

I mean if you received
a message--

But did I?

I want to believe
I can do this, but--

Sometimes things happen
that just don't make sense.

You've got to have faith
that they're happening
for a reason.

Hey. What are you two
doing in here?

I know it sounds crazy,
but when I drew that church...

What if your father's
trying to communicate
something through me?

And what, you're here
waiting for him
to communicate again?

I asked Kyle to try,
Mr. Trager.

I thought if your father's
reaching out in some way--

Listen...

I know you two
both mean well,

but my father
had plenty of chances

to reach out and make amends.

What if he wants
one more chance?

There are no more chances.

At least not for us.

[shrill tone]

Thanks for taking the time.

I know how hard it must be
trying to balance work

and raise Jessi by yourself.

Well, we manage.

Still, it must get
stressful at times.

Nicole, what are you
getting at?

Jessi's expressed
some anxiety to me

about the way
you deal with her.

And I saw the dynamic myself

when you showed up
at the dance.

The dynamic.

You seem to get very hostile
and aggressive.

I asked her not to go,
she did anyway.

Do you always react that way
when she doesn't listen?

You know, I have to say
I thought that Jessi

would be making
more progress by now.

I think she is.

She's finally starting
to open up to me,

and apparently, that makes you
uncomfortable...

and that makes me
even more concerned.

There's no reason for concern.

But I think I made a mistake
bringing Jessi to you.

I think it's vital
that she continue coming.

In fact, if Jessi misses
even one appointment,

I won't hesitate to call
Social Services.

[flashback]
We can be different
than who we appear to be.

Are you writing that down?

Not exactly.

[pencil scuffing amplified]

"Jessi lacks empathy...

is socially manipulative,
and has no remorse."

Hey.

Hi.

Sorry it took me so long.

This guy in line
changed his order,
like, 60 times.

That's a lot of orders.

Yeah.

What's wrong?

What do you mean?

Well, I don't think the coffee
is what's bothering you.

It's just...
I saw Lori earlier.

So?

Seeing her all beat up
like that...

She's trying
to convince herself
it's no big deal.

Maybe it isn't to her.

How couldn't it be?

This how'd you feel
if you were her.

You get attacked and you don't
know why or by who.

I guess I never thought
about how it'd make her feel.

[Narrating]
Adam told me that
as my mind developed,

new abilities would
reveal themselves to me,

like holographic memory.

But this was different.

The church wasn't my memory;
it was someone else's.

If this was a new ability,
why couldn't I control it?

And if it wasn't, how could
it be happening at all?

It's my father's living room.

This is incredible.

It's exactly
how I remember it.

How did you do this?

I wish I knew.

[incredulous laugh]

There's something
I want you to see.

[Kyle]
You grew up here?

Yeah, sure did.

[sighs]

Been a long time since
I've been in this house.

Nothing has changed.

Every night he'd pour himself
a glass of Scotch,

sit in this chair,
and read his bible.

Put it ahead of everything,
even his family.

Is that why you don't
like religion?

It's not that I don't
like religion.

It's just...
that I'm a science guy.

I need hard evidence, proof.

My father, he never
understood that.

Strange how something
meant to bring people together

can split so many apart.

I wrote him a letter
after the kids were born...

hoping he'd want to be
part of our family.

When I came here
to give it to him,

we had this huge argument.

He tore it up
right in front of me.

Never even read it.

Was that the last time
you spoke?

We both said
some horrible things
to each other.

I have always regretted
the way we left it.

So if he's really trying
to say something,

I'm ready to listen.

I need to talk to Ballantine,
so I'm just going in.

Nicole Trager's threatened
to call Social Services on me.

Why would she do that?

It's Jessi.

She's been willful
and defiant.

She must be
complaining about me

during her therapy sessions.

She's a computer
with a glitch.

Bring her in.
We'll fix her.

With all due respect,
I don't think that
that's a solution.

You may have downloaded
a history into her brain,

but I've been living
with that girl.

And she has wants
and desires and feelings

like any other teenager.

She's not like
any other teenager.

But you can't just reboot her
every time she acts like one.

Ms. Hollander,
that's not your concern.

Look, I don't think
I'm the right person

for this assignment.

You know, you won't tell me
what we're really doing here,

it's taking a lot longer
than you led me to believe,

and I miss my little--

I think it'd be best
if I resigned.

You're stressed out.

It's a tough assignment.

And now that you're
so familiar with our agenda,

I expect you
to see it through.

Take a few days to reconsider.

We'd hate to lose you.

Brought your bible
for you, Dad.

Thought you'd want it
with you.

What are you doing...
exactly?

Trying to focus on your father.

Anything?

Not yet.

[knocking at door]

Hey, I was just heading out
for some coffee.

I thought you might
want to come along.

Oh, thanks,
I'm already pretty deep

into the Lori Trager trifecta.

You have a trifecta?

Trashy magazines,
nail polish, Oprah reruns.

Mm.

I know what you're thinking,
but I'm not here to analyze.

You don't have a shrink speech
prepared for this scenario?

I don't have a mom speech
prepared for this, either.

I never thought
I'd have to see you deal
with anything like this.

But I know you'll get
through it,

and I know you need time,

and you should know
your dad and I are here
for you if you need us.

Touching.

Josh.

What are you doing?

Taking my Kyle File digital.

Going to go videotape
the collage he drew
on his wall.

Yeah, it's pretty amazing.
How do you think he did that?

I gotta go.

Do you know what this means?

You're actually doing it.

You're really
communicating with him.

But what's a church
and an old room

supposed to tell me?

Maybe there's more
to the message.

I tried and got nothing.

Stephen's finally
ready to listen

and I'm letting him down.

When my dad was alive,

we used to sit in the gardens
at Lancaster Park

and talk for hours.

He always told me
I could do anything
if I just believed.

But what if I fail?

You won't.

How can you be so sure?

Because I believe in you.

Amanda...

about the dance,

it didn't really end
the way I'd hoped.

I know.

With Lori and everything.

Yes.

With us, too.

The timing wasn't right.

When will it be?

We'll just know.

[door unlocking]

Jessi?

What is it?

I don't know
what's wrong with me.

Nothing's wrong with you;
you're just confused.

I lack empathy,
I'm socially manipulative,

and I have no remorse.

Did Nicole tell you that?

I just want things
to make sense.

I want to understand
why I do the things I do.

You know...

everyone feels
that way sometimes.

Do you?
Sure.

Do you remember what Mom
used to say about tomorrow?

Mom?
Yeah.

She said, "Tomorrow's
a clean slate,

"a chance to correct
your mistakes

and become a better person."

I want that.

I want to change.

Don't stay up too late.

[respirator hissing]
[EKG beeping]

[Narrating]
What was I missing,
not seeing?

I didn't know the answer
and time was running out.

What are you trying
to tell me?

Hi, it's Emily Hollander.

I thought I'd stop by
and surprise Paige.

Has my mother
picked her up yet?

[Woman]
Ms. Hollander,

the gentleman from your office
picked Paige up early.

What?

Yes, they left
about half an hour ago.

What gentleman?
Who authorized that?

You did.

Paige?
Mom.

Emily, what's wrong?

Someone picked up Paige
from school.

I know that.
She's here.

Mommy, you're home!

Oh, God, sweetie, Paige!

Oh, you're okay.

Oh!

Mom, how did she get here?

Nice young man from Madacorp
dropped her off.

And he said to tell you
that Madacorp always has
your family in mind.

[phone ringing]

Back to your old tricks, huh?

Thought you might
get a kick out of it.

So...you're not painting.

I decided I like it
the way it is.

Me, too.

What are you doing here?

I had a feeling
you might not be
up to going.

Major chick flicks.

You didn't have to.

I wanted to.

Just don't tell anyone
you saw me with those.

Well, uh, I guess
I'll leave you
to your Kleenex.

Actually...

would you mind sticking
around for a while?

Only if...

I can finally hear your song.

[door opens]

You never give up, do you?

I don't want to,
but I'm starting to think

we'll never know
what he's trying to tell us.

It's certainly not
from lack of effort,
that's for sure.

What's that?

I keep seeing the numbers
15 and 11 in my head.

Those are all things
associated with them:

dates, formulas, elements
of the Periodic Table.

15 and 11.

Do those numbers
mean anything to you?

Yeah, Luke 15:11.

The Prodigal Son.

It's my dad's favorite passage
in the bible.

What?

What is it?

It's my letter.

He read it.

You really did it.

This is what he's been
trying to tell me.

I heard you, Dad.

Hey.

Nicole told me.
I'm sorry.

Yeah, he died
late last night.

You know, I was thinking about
the last time I spoke to him,

how angry we both were,

when I realized
somewhere alone the way

that I wasn't angry anymore.

I was afraid.

Of what?

That he didn't care.

But he did.

Yeah, he did.

I want to thank you.

What you did...

You've made such
a difference in my life.

I'm very happy
that you're here.

Me, too.

[bell ringing]

Okay, what's your problem?

Don't have one.

You've been avoiding me
all week.

No, I haven't.

Seriously, you haven't made
one snarky, wise-ass comment
to me in days.

I'm coming up
with some new material

and I'm not ready
to launch it.

Please, as if you have
a self-editing bone
in your body.

Okay.

I'm going to talk about
my feelings, here.

So bear with me
if I am a little less
articulate than usual.

I'm not really into the whole
touchy-feely movement.

That's more like it.

It's just...

every time I look
at your eye,

the bruises, I get so mad.

All I want to do is find
the guy who did this to you

and beat the hell out of him.

It's my job as your brother
to protect you.

It's one thing
if I push you around,
but no one else can.

Not if I have anything
to say about it.

That make any sense?

Josh.

Whoa, not in public.

Oh, and...one other thing.

Hilary Duff called.

She wants her shirt back.

Hey.

Trager.

Oh, so we're back
to that, huh?

For old time's sake.

It's good to see you
with a smile on your face.

I've been told it suits me.

Hey, you heading
to Miller's class?

Yeah. Just let me
put my stuff in my locker.

This is totally not funny.

What is it?

It's my necklace
that was stolen.

Why did we come
to your office?

To get you some help.

Nicole's here?

I don't think she's been
a good match for you.

You remember Mr. Ballantine?

Hi.

Hello, Jessi.
Nice to see you again.

What's this about?

I'll explain
everything to you.

Please.

It's okay, Jessi,
I'll be right here.

You made the right choice.

Don't worry, we'll take
good care of her.

It's time for you
to concentrate
on Stephen Trager.

It's beautiful.

How'd you know I was here?

It's where you used to come
with your father.

I heard what happened
to Stephen's dad.

I'm sorry.

I couldn't have
helped him without you.

Yes, you could.

You wouldn't let me give up.

And I'm glad you didn't.

You did a great thing.

You gave Stephen a chance
to say good-bye.

A lot of people
never get that.

Like you.

When my dad first got sick,

I thought everything
would be fine,

that he'd get through it.

I just couldn't imagine
a world without him in it.

By the time I got the courage
to go see him at the hospital,

he was so out of it
they said he couldn't hear me.

And I believed them.

But after seeing
what you did...

I know they were wrong.

He could hear me.

So, did you ever solve
how you did it?

Not really.

But I thought about
what you said,

that some things
science can't explain.

What I realized
was that it doesn't matter

how it happened or even why.

What matters is it did.

What's that look?

You're the mind-reader.

You tell me.
