And I know you told Maggie that I'm over you,

but the truth is I am not.

Previously on "A Million Little Things"...

I'm Regina Howard.

I'm running for Boston City Council.

Gary's going to have cancer for the rest of his life.

We are going to make sure the rest of that life

is as long as possible.

Oh, my God.

We need to go to the hospital.

It was a beautiful ceremony.

Yeah, the best.

I gotta say, though, if I'm being honest,

I feel a little cheated.

Hmm? Why's that?

Well, they didn't do the Hokey Pokey.

I mean, that's what it's all about.

I stretched and everything.

Hey.

I'm sorry for the wait.

Yeah, you know, next time you come in special

on the weekend just for me, you should be more respectful

of my time.

What's up, Doc?

The tumor ruptured some blood vessels in your lung.

It's not uncommon.

What concerns me more is that the cancer

has now spread to the other lung.

It's no longer responding to the treatment.

There are a few more ways we can fight.

But, Gary, this will be a fight.

Hey, who's hungry, hmm?

You get a snack pack.

And you get a snack pack.

Everybody gets a snack pack.

- Cheers. - What's happening, fellas?

Kevin and I were talking about boundaries.

How you guys have none.

Ta-da!

- Oh! - Oh, my g... That is so sweet!

- You made us a banner? - Come here, you.

- I missed you. - We missed you so much.

While we're on a high, I have a small confession.

I ate that piece of wedding cake in the freezer.

That was for our one-year anniversary.

Which, because I have so much faith in your marriage,

I celebrated early!

- Congratulations! - Oh, you are gonna get it!

Oh, my gosh! Cut him off at the back!

Okay.

Your turn.

Come on, in solidarity. It's the right thing to do.

Hmm. Tell you what.

I will shave my pits.

Who said cancer doesn't have its upsides?

This is Regina Howard,

and I'm running for City Council.

And changing the world one meal at a time.

That is true.

I have said nice things about Dottie,

but we don't need nice.

We need change.

So, can I count on your vote?

We can?! That's great!

Thank you so much.

And I say this from experience, she will not let you down.

Oh, and one more thing,

if you could tell all your friends to...

Vote for Gina!

I mean, who could say no to that?

You can't.

Okay, I got my Harvard essay down to 1,000 words.

And now I just need someone to proofread it.

I'll do it.

Although, keep in mind, English is my second language.

Um, Ed?

I can make the words rhyme, add a sick beat.

- Soph? - I didn't even go to college.

Yeah, but you got in.

- Fine. - Okay, thank you.

Hey, would you like to take a break

from the campaign trail and check this thing out?

Four bedrooms, two bathrooms,

incredible school district for Charlie.

Wow.

Beautiful.

But it's in Springfield.

That's like an hour and a half away.

Which is the only reason we can afford it.

Y dijo el perro grande... Woof, woof, woof.

Yo no...

Hey.

- Oh, no. - Yeah.

You finally got to sleep.

Yeah, it's okay.

Hi.

Hi. Yeah. Yeah, he's gonna go to bed.

- Alright, good night, babies. - Good night.

Where's he going?

It's not that hard, just one syllable. Rome.

No, there's no way he's gonna say your name before mine

after all the time we've spent together.

Say it. Ed. Ed.

Guys, just let the kid eat his first chocolate cake.

Gee-nuh. Gee-nuh.

- Classy. - Gina! Gina! Gina!

Ookay, time to open gifts.

Actually, in a fun twist,

the birthday boy got something for his daddy.

Aww!

You shouldn't have, Javier.

By the way, I'm gonna need my ATM card back, son.

It's my fault.

I gave him my PIN code.

What do we got here?

- Nice. - Huh? The original.

Cute.

There's more. What did you do?

What did you do?

- Aww! Oh! - It's for the baby.

Maybe we should start a boy band.

What do you think? Don't be threatened by that, Ed.

Oh, come on.

Look at that. I'm down to a medium.

Pretty soon I'll be raiding Theo's closet.

Nothing? Come on, fam.

You gotta at least let me have my cancer jokes.

I'm here all week.

We hope.

Thank you, buddy.

Thank you, son.

Thank you. That's my boy.

That's my boy.

Rock, paper, scissors, go!

No! Not again.

How's Dan Dixon?

I haven't seen him in a few weeks.

Uh, he's so stressed with his Harvard interviews.

How you feel about having a brother

going to Harvard and a boyfriend in Yale?

Oh, God, they'll be insufferable.

So what do we owe you for your party-planning skills?

I mean, honestly, I literally only did the decorations, so...

And sent out the invites...

and cleaned our pukey bathroom.

Not to mention all the free babysitting, come on.

I mean, it's really no big deal. I just...

I want to be here for as much as I can.

You and me both.

Zzzt.

Zzzz.

Just in. Your dad gave a very robust donation an hour ago.

Amazing!

- Take that, Dottie. - Yep.

Great timing, too,

because apparently, the fundraising totals

for Dottie's campaign come out tomorrow.

Tomorrow?

Oh, God. I'm nervous.

I feel like I've been running a marathon

without a watch and finally get to find out my time.

Well, whatever that clock says, I'm proud of you.

You've knocked on 1,000 doors, you shook a million hands,

and you've given it your all.

Aww. No, we've given it our all.

And now we just hope for the best tomorrow.

- Yeah. - Yeah.

Sorry.

We're hoping for the best for your news tomorrow.

Way more important, obviously.

No, no, no.

We've all given all our alls

and we can all hope for all our bests.

Uh, you guys want us to come with you

to the oncologist tomorrow?

We'd love to be there.

Oh, thank you.

But I think we're just gonna keep it small.

You know, let... Javi steal the show.

You want the dolphin?

- Yeah. - Aww.

He's a natural.

Yeah.

Mwah!

I know it's not the news you wanted to hear.

Okay, um... so what is our next move?

Well, with how things are progressing,

I think it's time to talk about how comfortable

we can make you from here on out.

How comfortable we can make him?

Uh, we're not... We're not giving up.

We're still fighting this.

Maggie...

we're at the point now where any treatment we try

may affect his quality of life.

Well, I-I just read this study that, um...

About a clinic in Mexico City

and they're having great results with insulin therapy.

I'm aware of it, but it's still very experimental.

Okay, well, is that something that could help him?

I just don't think that at this point...

Would it hurt to try?

Hey. Bloom.

- It's okay. - Would it hurt?

No, I-I don't think it could hurt.

Great.

Then that's what we'll do.

Okay, uh, I have to feed him.

Gary, I am so sorry.

We celebrated his first birthday yesterday.

That's wonderful.

Yeah, it was.

So thanks for getting me this far, Doc.

It means the world.

Ah.

I am not paying for parking.

Have you been sleeping okay?

Uh, better than Maggie.

She's like a zombie.

Yeah, I saw her put orange juice

in her coffee at work yesterday.

She stays up all night doing research

and calling clinics from all over the world.

Keeps coming up empty.

She must be really scared.

How about you?

No.

No, I'm not scared.

I'm just... really tired.

Having Dr. Stein tell me that I did everything I could

was a huge relief.

You know, somebody told me once

that every life

has a length and a width,

and it's important not to sacrifice

the width in service of the length.

So you're saying on top of everything else

I'm dealing with, now size matters?

Come on.

- Oh. - Yeah, yeah.

Oh, I feel ya.

I had her knee in my back all night.

I had an elbow to the rib.

Though I am looking forward to a time where we don't have

like 75 pointy joints in one bed

and six people sharing one tiny apartment.

Oh, Donna texted.

Inspection went well.

We should be good to close on Friday.

Can we finally tell everyone? It's basically done.

Oh, well, with everything going on with Gary's news,

I don't think we say anything until the ink is dry.

Okay, I will keep my lips zipped.

I've never kissed zipped lips before.

Oh.

Oh, looks like I won't today.

Friday can't get here soon enough.

I thought you were going over to Gary's.

Oh, yeah, I'm just doing one last sweep.

I forget how everything becomes a lethal weapon with a tiny tot.

Oh, yeah, that Charlie's quite the thrill seeker.

Last week, she turned one of Theo's Legos into a nose plug.

We narrowly avoided an ER visit.

Oh, no.

Who's that?

Oh, nothing.

Very persistent nothing.

Hmm. Oh.

It's actually Julia.

That... That's cool.

It's really nothing.

I-I froze my eggs and then I prepaid for a decade,

but rent is due, and somehow they sent

the invoice to Julia's.

I-I didn't know you had eggs on ice.

Well, yeah, but I think it's time to evict them.

I mean, I-I forgot I even had them.

Oh, you know, I should sweep our bathroom

for razors and Q-tips.

Both equally deadly in Charlie's hands.

Okay, so I've got some good news

- and I've got some bad news. - Okay.

The bad news is

the fundraising total just came in

and Dottie's got a double-digit lead over you.

I'm such an idiot.

I thought... we could actually get close.

D-Do you want to hear the good news?

Please.

I just confirmed you

for the Boston Is Beautiful event tomorrow night

at the Museum of Fine Arts

where you are going to introduce...

The Mayor? Are you kidding?

She said yes?

That is amazing exposure.

Yeah, I know.

And once people learn about you, they want in.

I was walking out of a supermarket yesterday

when a woman I never met before

handed me one of your pins and said,

"Can Regina count on your support?"

And I was like, "Yeah, I better say yes

'cause it's gonna make for some really awkward

pillow talk tonight."

Let's give it our all till the bitter end, okay?

Yeah, you're right. Let's do this.

Let's do it!

Elise in Quincy, you are in the room.

Hi, Dr. Bloom.

I swear to God, my sister copies my every move.

I got hair extensions, and she got hair extensions.

And then I got my eyebrows tinted,

and she gets her eyebrows tinted.

What am I supposed to do?

Uh, here's a thought, Elise, uh,

maybe stop being so petty...

because someday your sister's not gonna be here anymore

and then you're gonna call me

and you're gonna complain about missing

the things that you are complaining about now.

Uh, Maggie.

I'm sorry, I know, I know, but she asked for my advice

- and this is... - You have a call.

It's from Mexico.

Go to commercial.

This is Maggie Bloom.

You sure they're not gonna give Maggie any trouble, right?

She's your beneficiary.

And if they do give her any problems,

they'll have to go through me.

Oh, I would love to see them try.

One last thing.

Do you think we can keep this between us?

I mean, just for now?

You got it.

Thank you.

Oh, hey! What are you doing here?

I just came by to drop off some of my mom's Seolleongtang.

- So enjoy. - Oh.

I'll see you guys later.

Bye.

What are you doing home so early?

Ha-ha.

If it's for that soup I can't pronounce,

get ready, 'cause there's a whole bone in it.

Forget soup. Ah.

We are having champagne.

We got in.

Uh, to rehab?

Are we going on one final bender?

To the treatment program in Mexico City.

They have an opening, and they want us

to get down there right away.

Claudia's already booking flights!

Ha!

But, you know, Dr. Stein said...

I don't care what Dr. Stein said.

The only reason that I am still here

is because you never let me give up.

That was different.

Different how? Hmm?

You made me fight, which is what you're gonna do.

Bloom, I don't...

Mendez... I dare you to go to Mexico.

I dare you to fight this.

Okay.

Okay. Let's go to Mexico.

Okay.

Low, low, low. High, high!

Extra underwear is essential. Top drawer.

Right.

Try again, coach.

Oh, okay, judgmental.

So I guess Lacy Gary won't be, uh,

coming out to play in Mexico.

I meant that top drawer.

You know, I could use a little Mexico right now.

Oh, yeah?

It's not exactly my... My dream vacation.

No, man, of course not.

We're just excited that you got in.

They've got that full body hyperthermia

and... and the insulin therapy.

The place sounds legit.

And it really helped that woman on the website

- who had lung cancer. - Stage three lung cancer.

Sorry.

I don't want to be that guy, but I'm not that gal.

It's... It's not my situation.

Wait, so... why are you going?

For Maggie.

Look... end of the day,

she needs to believe

that she did everything she could.

So I'm gonna give whatever life I have left

to making sure she doesn't spend the rest of hers

regretting anything.

Which is why, Rome, I think it would be very nice

if you would pack a little something for Lacy Gary.

Surprise me.

Do you really think this program could help him?

I don't know, but I hope so.

But it is eight weeks, which means that

when we go to the airport later,

I think, uh...

I think we... we need to be prepared

to... to say our goodbyes,

just in case.

You mean, like, goodbye, goodbye?

Soph, we just don't know if...

I can't go.

I have my interview with the Harvard alumni guy

this afternoon.

No, that's fine. We're not going till tonight.

You can borrow my car and meet us there.

I'm going with them.

- To Mexico? - Yeah, no, I-I mean,

they're gonna need help with Javi.

I have my passport.

I have enough miles for the flight.

Soph...

No, Mom, you can say what you want,

but I am going with them. I have to.

No, I was gonna say that's...

I'm so proud of you.

Hey, you alright?

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah.

I was just thinking this is, uh...

this is where we were standing

when I told you to go to England.

Sometimes, uh...

I wish I could get that time back, you know?

Well, from now on, we do all our globe-trotting together.

Good, 'cause joining the mile-high club

- is on my bucket list. - Mm.

- I'll meet you in the loo. - Mm.

Don't listen to him.

I'll go check the bags.

He's been there for me through everything.

Did you know, when I needed to get sober,

he pawned the engagement ring he bought for Maggie

to pay for my rehab?

No.

I think after this,

I might need to go to a meeting.

Can I come with you?

Yeah.

Wait, what do you mean you're not coming?

The alumni guy pushed the meeting to tonight.

Danny, you have to be here.

Tell them you have to reschedule.

Yeah, then he'll think I don't care

about going to Harvard.

Well, what am I supposed to tell Gary then?

Just tell him...

Just... Just tell him I said goodbye.

Sophie, I-I-I gotta go, okay?

The guy's just walking in.

Danny's not coming.

He said they moved his interview.

Oh.

Okay.

No, that's not okay.

Soph.

Everyone has to deal with this in their own way.

He knows I love him. I know he loves me.

Danny and I are good.

Okay?

The traffic back is even worse.

We're never gonna make it to the Museum of Fine Arts

- after this. - Rome.

Which, if we flake on the Mayor...

- she'll never get back on board. - Rome.

It's worse not showing up than had we not agreed

- to it in the first... - Rome!

We're missing the event.

- But we need this win. - I know.

But we're saying goodbye to our friend.

So nothing else matters.

I needed a win.

Hey, baby. I know you did.

And it's unfair that sometimes you can't get a win

no matter how hard you try.

But we're in this together, right?

You're right.

Let's do this.

Look, I know this Mexico trip

seems like a complicated way to get fluent in Spanish,

but I'm also gonna get a legit farmer's tan, okay?

This is... This is a win-win for everybody.

Uh, bags are checked and Javi's fed, so...

So this is it.

Ah, okay.

Buddy, we're gonna see you soon, okay?

I'm proud of you, okay?

And not just because you're aging so gracefully,

although that's most of it.

I love you, bro.

And I will see you in a few weeks.

- Yes, you are. - Right.

Hey, do me a favor.

Take care of my best friend Rome while I'm gone, okay?

He deserves it.

You take care of my best friend, too.

I hope you have a great trip.

Oh, I think I'll miss you most of all, Scarecrow.

Hey. I'm gonna see you in a few weeks.

I love you.

Feels like a bit of an overstep from my future

City Councilwoman, don't you think?

Don't worry, I mailed in my ballot.

Travel safe.

I love you, too. Did you hear that?

I love all of you.

Okay.

Oh, my chariot awaits.

Alright.

Okay.

Um, I got it.

Oh, Ed, I get it.

I get it.

Hey, sometimes Colin poops twice in the morning, alright?

So you're gonna want two bags just in case.

Go, B's.

Bye, honey.

Are you okay?

We should get going if we're gonna make that flight.

Hey!

Bad news, Ed.

You're no longer the most handsome one of us

in a wheelchair.

Good news, Rome.

You are no longer the only one battling male-pattern baldness.

W-What are you doing?

Aren't you guys gonna miss your flight?

I realize that, um, he needs to be here

for whatever time we...

He just needs to be here with all of us.

So... So... So what now?

What now?

We go home, and you help me unpack.

And we all get in one bed together.

Do it.

And I know you said you were having trouble sleeping.

This may be a little premature,

but I can have a hospital bed sent over.

You might be more comfortable sleeping in it going forward.

Well, that depends.

Is this robo-bed gonna do sit-ups for me?

Because this one insists that I keep my six pack going.

Ah, shoot. Um...

I just remembered it's, uh, recycling day.

I'll be right back.

And of course I'll be on call if you need anything.

Oh, hey.

I can't do this.

I can't... I can't do this.

I know.

She just said that he's not gonna even be

in the same bed with me anymore.

I mean, how am I supposed to do this?

Seriously, D, how did you do it?

Oh. I don't know. I... I don't know.

I know it seems impossible, but you're gonna lean on us,

and you will get through it just like I did.

I just... I'm, like... I'm going through the motions

and I know that I don't have that much time with him.

And I feel like I'm already grieving.

Of course you are.

I want to be laughing at his inappropriate jokes,

and I want my heart to not shatter

every time Javi smiles at him.

And I just...

I want to be able to enjoy the life that we have left.

Well, maybe you can have both?

Mm? Be sad and be joyful and just be human.

And be messy and laugh at his jokes and cry.

And, just in any way that you can, celebrate him.

And you and Javi

and... and your beautiful family.

Oh, my God.

I know what I need to do.

Ugh. Um...

Can you help me with something?

Yeah.

Hey.

Milo and I got breakfast burritos

from that place you like.

I brought you one.

Thanks.

Is everything okay?

How was your interview last night?

There was no interview, was there?

What is going on?

I didn't want to see him like that.

I can't. I'm sorry.

Come here.

I don't know how to say goodbye to him.

I don't, either.

I mean, I was gonna go to Mexico

to try and put it off as long as I can.

Danny, you have to know this is not like Dad, okay?

We get to have more time with him.

But what do I say to him?

That's the thing, you don't have to say anything.

You just show up.

Oh, what?

Oh, geez.

Hmm, sharp little hands.

Aw, poor baby.

Do you remember that class in high school

where they made us carry those dolls around for a week

to scare us out of getting pregnant?

Oh, yes.

Unbeknownst to them, some of us were lower risk than others.

Hmm.

You were really great with that little doll.

Yeah, where are you going with this?

Uh, okay, well...

It's the whole frozen eggs thing.

It just feels like something I should have known.

You're right.

There's a reason I didn't tell you.

Um, Julia was...

Julia was always reluctant

because of me having bipolar disorder.

Are you serious?

She's not wrong.

You know, if I passed it along to a kid, it's, um...

I have it under control now,

but it was a rough road for a while there.

Well, that is something to consider,

and totally your decision.

But if... if you wanted to be a mom,

we should be so lucky to have a kid like you.

And if they did have bipolar disorder,

you'd be the perfect person to help them with that

so they wouldn't have to struggle the way you did.

Really?

If... If that is something that you wanted,

I-I want that for you, too.

Okay, I will call them

and tell them to keep my eggs warm.

Or... cold? I... They'll know what to do.

The main thing, okay, when you're first starting out

is to go with the grain.

I repeat, with the grain.

No, no, actually, it's the exact opposite.

No, Rome. This is exactly why we're making

these videos for you, Javi.

If you try Uncle Rome's method,

if the razor burn doesn't get you,

the deep, deep regret will.

Okay? Trust us.

Let me guess, the Red Ferns are forming a super group

with Menudo and NKOTB?

Ha.

Actually, uh, D and I didn't want to say anything

until it was finalized, but we, uh, closed on a place.

- Hey! - That's amazing, bro.

Yeah, mainly because you're so bad

at keeping secrets about Delilah, but...

Where is it?

Well, as you know, it's pretty tough

to find affordable housing here in Boston,

which is why we started looking in Springfield.

Springfield?

That's like an hour and a half away.

I know, I know.

Which is why we got a condo here in town.

Okay, you s-see what he did there?

- He just... He Seacrested us. - We got Seacrested. Yeah.

It is extraordinarily close by.

In fact, we can take a look at it now if you want.

I do want.

I don't know if I can do right now,

but maybe after, like, a quick five-hour nap?

No need. We're just down the hall.

- What? - We're in 2C.

D and I wanted to stay as close to Maggie and Javi

as we could.

Wow, that's, uh...

that's a smooth move, Ed.

But don't get any ideas 'cause I'm not gonna help you move.

Alright, let's do this.

- Rome, film. - On it.

Did you hear that, Javi?

From now on, when you have to drop an extra spicy deuce,

you do your mom a big favor and you go down the hallway

- to your old Uncle Ed's. - Oh!

Thanks, Uncle Ed!

Hey, Dan.

Mmm! Mmm.

Thank you.

Thank you for sneaking in this ramen.

Maggie's only buying green stuff nowadays

and it's disgusting.

There is nothing like this high-quality product.

Exactly. Which is why I need you to do me a favor, Dan.

Yeah. Yeah, of course.

Make sure Javi discovers the magic

of this high-quality product, okay?

I can do that.

And make sure you teach him lots of things.

Fun things.

You know what it was like not having your dad around.

It can get lonely.

Yeah, well, thanks to you, it was a lot less lonely.

You know, nothing would make me happier

than if he turned out to be just like you.

Hide the evidence.

Just act natural.

Hey, baby mama.

Oh, shh.

Okay, I'm... I'm gonna go.

See you tomorrow?

Yeah.

Yeah, you will.

- Yeahhh! - Yeah, you will.

So...

Oookay, what's going on in here?

Oh...

Oh! I-I don't...

Okay, Dan was basically force-feeding me that stuff.

- It's so gross. - Ugh.

Yeah, you gotta get better at hiding your paraphernalia.

You seem chipper.

Where have you been all day?

Mm, just running an errand.

Yeah, I was, um... I was going to all these different, um...

What are they called?

Oh, uh, pawn shops looking for... this.

I believe that is the exact ring you almost gave me.

How did you find this?

It was a wild goose chase, but it was worth every second.

Kinda like you and me.

You said at the airport that you wish

you could have all that time back,

and I can't help but wonder how life would look different

if I had just said yes the first time.

But one thing I absolutely do know

is that I want to celebrate every second

that we have left together.

And I want to do that as your wife.

So... Gary Mendez...

Will you marry me?

Hell yes.

I would love nothing more than to marry you.

Does this mean that we can finally have sexual intercourse?

The kind we learned about in school? Yes?

- Better than that. - Yes.

Mm.

Looking sharp, Mr. Howard.

Reverend Howard.

Worth getting ordained online for the title alone.

- Time for Javi's bottle. - Yes.

I didn't even know they made suspenders this tiny.

So cute.

Here they are.

Best dressed best man and best dressed groom.

Oh, my goodness, you guys.

Is this thing straight?

Two handsome gentlemen.

Aww.

Pretty convenient to have a place

to get ready down the hall.

Whoo!

- Stunning. - You are perfect.

- You look perfect. - Thank you.
