Some of these images may be upsetting,

but if you see any property that belonged to you or a loved one,

let me know, and we'll have it shipped to you from NTSB in Washington.

No. No, no, no, no.

- Just take the ring until I come back. - I'm not doing this.

- I can't. I can't. - Amanda, please.

That's mine.

That's mine.

- I'll trade you pudding for your Cheetos. - Uh, yeah, right.

Hey, watch it.

Chill. And they're the same color.

Respect the jacket.

I'm not the one who left a bunch of trash in it.

Not gonna lie, your brother was kind of a hoarder.

Hmm, but he had good taste in candy.

What is this?

Did your brother draw?

Not really.

Hmm.

Oh. There's a girl involved.

Dude, just put 'em back. Seriously, put 'em back. Those aren't yours.

- Oh, my God. This is it. - What?

The mystery girl is the artist,

and she was connected to your brother. Deeply connected.

You're insane.

These are all from the same place.

"Central Park Deli and Juice Bar. 405 Central Park West."

- Did your brother shop there? - No.

Why does he have a thousand receipts from there

with the mystery girl's doodles?

Mystery Girl was your brother's girlfriend. Obvi. Case closed.

Cheeto?

Jordan didn't have a girlfriend.

Um, yeah, he did.

No, he didn't.

Well, who else would stalk you and give you a random shrunken head?

A stalker?

These were in your brother's jacket.

If Jordan had a girlfriend, I'd know about her.

Okay, yeah. But not if she was a secret girlfriend.

We didn't have any secrets.

Her name is Shay. I mean, they're both 12.

I'm sure it's totally innocent.

It's just that he... he spends every single night there. Every night.

I'm trying not to take it personally.

I know it's not about me. I know that.

And he's been through so much. It's just...

You want your boy home.

Yeah.

So tell him.

You're the parent. Kids need boundaries.

Hey. Hey.

I just wanted to check in.

Make sure it's still okay with you that I'm in the group.

Yeah. Yeah, like I said, we'll work it out.

Okay.

Hey. I thought you already left.

Oh, I took a later flight so we can have lunch.

I hate leaving you right now.

- Hi. - Hi. Um, yeah, I'ma let you two...

No, please. You're in the group with Steve?

Uh... Uh, um, this is Amanda.

Amanda, this is my, uh, my fiancée, Daphne.

Fiancée. Wow. Um, it's so nice to meet you.

I'm so sorry for your loss. Who... Whoever it was.

- I don't want to pry. - Oh. Yeah.

- Yeah, I, uh, I knew Brent. - Um, sh-she knew Brent.

Brent, your Brent?

Uh, yeah, Amanda and Brent were engaged.

Brent was engaged?

I can't believe you didn't tell me any of this.

I think it's pretty confidential.

I hate all the distance in the family. I barely got to know Brent.

We just all need to heal.

Would you come to dinner?

- Oh. - Daphne, that's um...

You should know Steve. We should all know each other.

- Yeah, that's so nice. - How's Saturday night?

Saturday works.

- Amazing. - Fantastic.

- That's great. Great. Great, great. - Yeah.

Let's go. Okay.

This picture.

The whole city has just been captivated by this beautiful image,

and you have become quite the celebrity.

I wouldn't call myself a celebrity.

Now, this photo was taken at the First Dominion Church in Harlem

where the presiding reverend is Eric Turner.

He's known for his community activism and leadership.

Yes, it was.

And you two have been linked in the past, romantically?

Uh... Abby, the past is the past.

Fair enough. Let's talk about the debate tomorrow.

There was no one better on the debate stage than your grandmother.

Yeah.

I still remember when she made Rush Limbaugh apologize.

She was a force.

But what are you hoping to get across?

Not as the congresswoman's granddaughter,

but as you, Adriana Washington?

I'm gonna let you see for yourself tomorrow night.

Oh, that's great.

Your leg is getting so much stronger.

That's so good. Does it feel stronger?

- Yeah. - That's great. That's so good.

You don't even need me anymore.

I mean, of course I'm here if you... if you do need anything.

But it's good to do stuff on your own. Be independent.

Like learning to drive a car when you're old enough,

- or mowing the lawn, or... - Mm-hmm.

... sleeping in your own room.

Not that there's anything wrong

with sleeping in Shay's room, temporarily.

But it's been a while, and it's important to be with your family.

And your Uncle John and I, we're your family.

And if this is gonna be your home, you know, you gotta sleep at home.

Which is... here.

In this house.

Is this, like, decided?

It is.

So, Lacey laid down the law, and you just took it?

Yeah. I mean, what am I supposed to do? I'm 12.

Did she get all "ramble-y"?

Yeah. Yeah, she did. How'd... How'd you know?

She once confronted my mom

about all the wind chimes on our front porch.

It was a total legitimate complaint.

I mean, it looked like a Buddhist temple out there.

But she got all, like, "ramble-y." And she was like this, right?

Yeah, exactly.

Yeah, no, if you got "ramble-y" Lacey,

she must be pretty serious about it.

Yeah. I think she is.

She's a serious lady.

Yeah.

I, um, googled the address on those receipts.

It's, like, ten blocks away from your family's apartment.

If we hurry out of early dismissal on Friday,

- we can make it to... - I'm not going there.

I already told you. My brother didn't have a girlfriend.

- Okay, yeah. So, what's your theory? - I don't know. I don't have one.

This is my life, not yours.

Why are you so obsessed with my life? It's, like, every little thing.

You know what? I was trying to help you.

- I didn't... - I have to practice.

- Shay, I didn't mean... - I'm serious. Go!

- Well, I'm just so happy you called. - Yeah.

Feels so good to just have a beautiful lunch

with my beautiful daughter.

So, how was LA?

Fine.

There's some financial things I have to work out,

um, which I'll wanna talk to you about at some point, actually.

Mm-hmm. Is everything okay?

It's... It's okay. It's fine. Nothing to worry about.

- I'm still figuring it out. - Okay.

But I don't wanna think about that.

I wanna just savor this moment with you.

Yes, that's, l-like, exactly what I've been thinking lately.

Just, like... You have to just, like, ignore all the bullshit,

and just, like, live your life. You know?

- Mm-hmm. I agree. I agree. - Yeah.

- Here's to more lunches together. - Yeah.

Um, so, I've been thinking,

and I'm pretty sure I wanna travel.

- Oh, I love that. Me too. - Yeah.

- Your father would love that for us. - I know.

Maybe you and I together, just the two of us,

could go on the Alaska cruise.

Definitely, yeah, at some point. For sure.

But, um... No, that's actually... that's not what I was, um...

I'm just thinking that I'll leave school,

and I'll travel, like, on my own.

- Um... - And here you are.

- Thank you. Oh, look at... That's gorgeous. - Yeah.

Oh, the Wagyu.

Um... w... you would leave school?

- Yeah. - When?

Like, now. Like... Like, pretty much as soon as possible.

Uh... mmm.

And wh... And which... Uh, where would you go?

Around the world. Like, everywhere.

But, honey, you worked your whole life to get to Barnard.

- Yeah, I know. Exactly. - Ah.

Like, that's the bullshit that I'm talking about.

- You know? - Oh.

I was thinking about it the other day,

and I think that my earliest memory

is when you made me rehearse with you

before my preschool interview?

- I didn't do that. - Yeah.

Well, I think... I think it's because you were so shy,

- and I was just... I wanted you to shine... - Yeah.

- ... because I knew you... - But, Mom, it's, like... it was preschool.

And it never stopped.

Like, extracurriculars, SAT prep, college coaches.

I always, like, auditioning for life.

I was never, like, actually living it.

And I've turned into that person in college.

I'm just seeking fucking A's. I'm not learning shit.

And I'm gonna end up miserable in my work

and in some stale fucking marriage.

And I just wanna get off of the hamster wheel, like, now.

Okay, honey. But, you know, this is your life.

This is your future.

And your father worked so hard so that you could have an education,

and I intend to do the same thing, no matter what it takes.

I want you to have this education, honey.

If Dad were here, he would support me in this.

That's rich.

Your father could never say no to you.

- Somebody had to be a parent. - Yeah, because he believed in me, Mom.

I believe in you too.

I never went to college. It's the biggest regret of my life.

- I want more for you. - Then, Mom... Then you go to college.

I would like for you to finish out this semester...

I don't know how to finish this semester, Mom.

I can't think. I can't sleep. I c... I'm numb.

My friends have no idea what I'm going through. I...

I wish I could be like you.

I-I wish that I could just get up and put my makeup on

and go through life like nothing happened,

but I can't, okay? I-I can't.

I need to do this. I'm gonna travel, and I need you to support me.

I don't think I just get up and put my make up on

and go through my day.

I'm sorry. I didn't mean that.

Well, that's what you said, and it was hurtful.

Please don't say that again.

Okay.

I think this is a mistake.

I don't think it's the right thing,

but I love you and I support you, whatever you decide.

Yo.

Why aren't you at Shay's?

Aunt Lacey told me I couldn't sleep over anymore.

Oh, right, right.

What are you doing up?

Sometimes I feel like the crash is still sitting in that field.

And it's just... It's never gonna stop burning.

Yeah, that'll do it.

You know it's not though, right?

They cleaned it up. It's just a field now.

I don't know. Maybe this is crazy,

but, like, what if I went to Colorado,

and then I could take pictures of the field,

and you could see it's all clean.

Would that help?

You'd do that?

Of course.

I got you.

How did you find me?

Ah, Becks has trained me well.

I've gotten very good at hide-and-seek. Here.

Oh, thank you.

No problem.

Wow.

So, you never got married?

You never had a person in your life?

I did, but it didn't work out.

Mmm. I'm sorry.

And you had the minister?

That's over.

- I see. - Yeah.

Well... you should get some rest. Tomorrow's a big day.

Yeah, wanna go in my place?

Ah. I think people might notice.

- You are going to be great. - Probably.

You were very impressive this morning.

You heard Abby.

People just think of me as Congresswoman Washington's granddaughter.

And so?

So I don't know how to convince 'em of anything different.

I'm just bullshitting my way through this.

That sounds like you are a good politician.

Okay, I'm not a politician.

I'm not. I was basically handed this opportunity.

I didn't earn it.

Not like she did.

- I just don't wanna disappoint her. - Hey, hey, hey.

That is not going to happen.

- Well... - You are extraordinary.

Sorry.

You'll know what to say.

- You're going to Colorado? - Uh-huh.

Today?

- To take a picture of a field? - Yeah.

What am I missing here, John? Even if we could afford this, it's crazy.

The kid needs something.

And we are not doing anything to help him.

We're just hiding his letters,

and I, for one, am done putting a pin in the thing.

- I'd like to help him. - Okay.

This is my way of helping him.

I'll use miles. They're expiring anyways.

I don't care about the miles. I'm just trying to understand.

- Did he ask you to go? - I don't know.

Did he ask you to stop sleeping at Shay's?

Please don't tell me this is because you're mad at me?

It's not. I'm just... You know where I stand on this thing. Right?

Let the kid sleep where he wants to sleep.

He was gonna come home eventually.

And I don't agree with you.

Right, and so you pulled the rug out from under him.

Which... Did you even ask him what he thinks?

It's not up to him. He's 12.

- One of us has to set boundaries for him... - He's... He's not just some other kid.

- I know that, John. - Do you?

Because he is here one night,

he starts having these god-awful nightmares about the crash.

So that's my fault?

No.

Of course it's not your fault. I just...

Oh, man, this is so hard.

There's no playbook for this.

I gotta go.

I'm sorry. I'm just... I'm a little messed up right now.

Yeah, no shit.

This is a good program, okay?

And it's really good and I'm gonna work the steps,

I'm gonna go to more meetings, and it's gonna be fine, okay?

- I can't. I can't. - Amanda. Plea... No!

Hey, Shay.

Hi, Ms. Curtis.

Everything okay?

Yeah, um, can I have a ride today? My leg's kinda hurting.

Sure.

You want a ride, Shay?

No thanks, Ms. Curtis.

Everything okay with you and Shay?

- Oh, yeah. - Mmm.

Your uncle told me about your nightmare.

I'm so sorry.

If you ever wanna talk about anything or, you know...

- A... are you going to the city today? - Yeah. Yeah, I have my group.

Do you want me to get you some cookies from the van again

- or anything like that? - Ca-Can I go with you?

You have school.

Yeah, I just really wanna be in the city today.

Okay, okay. I'll call you in sick.

You can come and do your homework while you're waiting for me.

- I'm sure we can find you a space there. - Can't I just go to Central Park?

- Edward. - I know it like the back of my hand.

I really just don't like the idea of you being in the park alone.

You said I should do more stuff on my own.

Be independent.

Please?

Okay.

Okay, so, been given very specific instructions.

You are only to spot clean this one...

I'm not sure red's your color.

Are those for me?

Is Adriana here? I just came by to wish her good luck.

No, she's not.

- I can give those to her. - Oh, your hands are pretty full.

I'll leave them downstairs. I've got a key.

You two...

You are close?

Look, I'm sorry to hear about your sister. I'm hurting too.

Rose basically raised me.

- Congresswoman Washington? - Yeah.

Taught me how to ride a bike. Looked after me.

Hmm.

She sounds like she was a special woman.

She was.

- I hear you're going back to Ghana soon. - Yes.

Yes, I have to get back to my business.

- Oh, what do you do? - Oh, I just, uh...

... I run the biggest portable toilet company in all of West Africa.

- Impressive. - Yeah, thank you.

Well, I know some people at the State Department,

so I'd be happy to make some calls, speed things up.

You are a very generous man.

Sure. You never know, one day I might need a porta-potty.

How y'all doing?

Pickup for Adriana Washington.

Ah, yes, uh, be sure to spot clean this one.

Have a good day. Thank you.

Oh, take this too.

You going in or what?

Uh... ... I don't think I have it in me today.

Is everything okay?

No.

Anything I can do?

I could really use a drink.

- Just, like, right here. - Here?

- Yeah. - All right.

So, I'll see you at 4:30?

- Yeah. - Cool. Okay, I'm just gonna drop a pin.

- Okay. - And you call me or text me

if you need anything, all right?

Okay. 4:30. Got it. Okay.

- Name? - Um, Adler. Number 204.

- There you go. No problem. - Okay. Thank you.

Can I help you?

Did you know my brother?

- Eddie. - Did you?

Mahira, is everything all right?

Uh, yes, Uncle! I'll clean it up!

Oh, Mahira. That's your name? What, were you his girlfriend?

- Keep your voice down. - Were you?

- Ask about the oranges. - What?

The oranges are very fresh. They just came in.

I'll... I'll pick some out for you.

I don't care about oranges. I don't want your stupid oranges.

I'll explain. Just be quiet, okay?

Why do I have to be quiet? What's with all of the secrets?

- What the hell is going on? - Okay, please just shut up!

I'm sorry.

Why did you come to the supermarket?

- Mahira, is everything all right? - Uh, coming, Uncle!

Get out of here, Eddie. Okay? I mean it.

Eddie, wait.

Uh, we still have a few minutes left. Any takers?

I... I'll g... I'll go today.

My husband lied to me.

He lost his job. He lost all our money. Never told me about it.

The shame of it, I guess.

But it's-it's really, um...

it's not about the money, 'cause I... I know I can...

work that out. Um...

He had another life.

Uh, he had an apartment in LA, and...

I don't know, um, what else was going on there.

We were together since, um, 17.

Wow, 17.

Uh, so I don't know how to piece it all together, you kn...

The grief...

and the humiliation.

And the rage.

It's too much. It's too fucking much! It's...

I lost my husband. I lost my best friend.

I'm still in love with him.

But I feel like he stole my life away.

Oh, I just wish I didn't know.

I wish I didn't know.

Yeah, that's fine. Next Tuesday I'll be available.

Hey, I'll have to call you right back.

Come in.

Thank you for the flowers. They're beautiful.

Of course.

Um, listen, about the other day, um, it's an emotional time.

I was vulnerable and it felt good to see you.

But I don't want you to think the wrong thing.

'Cause it's not happening.

- Got it. - Cool.

So, you came all the way over here,

90 minutes before you go on stage for the biggest night of your life,

to tell me that you don't want to kiss me again?

Uh-huh.

Kick ass tonight, Dri.

Yeah, thanks.

Dee Dee. Dee Dee. I just...

- That was really brave what you just said. - Oh, God. Are my eyes a mess?

- No. - Shouldn't cry during the day at my age.

- No, you look amazing. - Geez. Aw.

Um, how was lunch with Zoe?

Oh... ... it was lovely.

- Good. - Thank you for asking.

Anyway, I have, um, I have an ultrasound appointment coming up.

- Oh, you're gonna see the baby? - Yeah, but it's, um, the anatomy scan.

- It's, like, kinda the scary one. - Uh-huh.

- You know, where they check the heart... - Oh. Oh, yeah, yeah.

... and bones and everything. My roommate was gonna come

but she, um, got, like, called in last minute for a shift.

And I know that you're probably really busy.

- But I just wanted to, like... - Yeah.

- ... put that out there. - Yeah. I'm sorry.

I just...

I'm sorry, Linda. I just can't be your mom.

- Oh, my God. I'm sorry. No. - And I didn't... I don't mean that that's

- what you were... - Yeah, I... I'm...

- For me, I just feel... Just... - No, it's not... It's not a problem at all.

Don't even... Don't think twice about it, honestly.

- Okay. I mean, sorry. - No.

But you're gonna be great. And that baby's gonna be great.

Thanks.

- What'll it be? - Uh, Coors Light.

- Hey, can I ask you a question? - Shoot.

Do you know where that plane went down a few months ago?

The one from New York.

No. Sorry.

Thanks.

You guys know how to, uh, find the crash site, do you?

You a podcaster?

A podcast... No.

Um, I just came for a friend.

How about you respect us and respect the dead?

We've had hundreds of people coming through here,

and there's nothing to see. Go home.

Yeah. Sorry.

What you wanna go there for?

Um, my nephew survived the crash.

I'll take you.

I'll take you.

Come on.

Hey, now, uh, you can't make it there in that.

It's... You come with me.

Come on.

- So, you're engaged? - Mm-hmm. I am.

And you don't have to have dinner with us.

- Sh... she just wants to help. - Yeah, she's gorgeous.

Congratulations.

- Bet you're excited about the wedding. - I... Yeah, I...

I mean, I'm not the bride, so...

- All the planning is driving me nuts. - Mmm.

But, you know, my mom's all into it.

It's good for her after everything she's been through.

- What? Say it. - Nothing.

Um, this whole thing, from what Brent told me about you,

just seems really on-brand.

On... What's that supposed to mean?

I don't know. You know, the whole golden child, mama's boy,

doing-everything-to-please-your-parents thing.

That's not what I'm doing. That's not why I'm getting married.

Well, if it was, it's noble in a way.

Well, it's not.

Okay. Sorry.

What about you? Hmm?

How you holding up?

Yeah, I'd say I am not great.

Yeah.

Me neither.

Hey, what was up earlier?

NTSB found this in the wreckage.

- That's... - My engagement ring.

Ah.

You know, Brent and I had an epic fight

the day I dropped him off at the airport.

I was really fucking cruel.

Well, I'm sure it wasn't that bad.

You don't understand. I said... so many things.

And all he wanted me to do is to wear this ring until he got back.

Well, we all say stupid shit.

Yeah, but I ended it.

I broke up with him.

Then he fucking died.

He always liked to have the last word.

- Shut up. - Motherfucker.

What?

Just... You have his eyes.

Oh?

Our next question is for Ms. Washington.

Tomas says he's lived in Harlem for the past 40 years,

and his landlord is trying to evict him.

With the area becoming more and more gentrified,

what are you going to do about the rising cost of rent?

Thank you...

... uh, and I'd like to thank Tomas for the question.

I've seen a lot of our neighbors pushed out,

so this is an issue I'm actually very passionate about, because...

It takes more than passion to get things done.

- Uh... - As a real estate developer,

I know exactly what Tomas should do.

I've had a lot of experience in housing, actually.

With all due respect, my opponent was an aide.

She's never worked another job in her life.

The only experience she has is answering phones.

- Let's stick to the rules. - I, on the other hand,

was Congresswoman Washington's chief of staff for 14 years.

She's right.

I answered phones.

And I did it damn well.

And it's true.

My grandmother gave me a job out of college

and put a roof over my head.

But that meant that for my entire life, I had a front-row seat

on how to advocate for this district.

Every morning at 5:00 a.m,

she'd get me out of bed to bounce ideas off of me,

whether I liked it or not.

And you don't wanna see me before coffee.

So, yeah, on paper I was just an aide.

But I learned from the best.

And I was raised by the woman

you elected for 36 years straight in Harlem,

where she was raised too.

She taught me how to fight for you.

She taught me how to stand up for what is right,

and in her words, "how to get shit done."

My grandmother paved the way for me to stand here today.

And there is no one on this stage more committed

to carrying on her legacy than I am.

Thank you.

You all right?

All those lives...

And all those people, they just fell.

If I was praying, would you be... would you pray with me?

I'm not really religious.

Yeah, me either. I just don't know how to start.

Our Father, who art in heaven...

- ... hallowed be thy name. - Be thy name.

- Thy kingdom come. - Thy kingdom come.

Thy will be done.

On Earth as it is in heaven.

Give us this day our daily bread

and forgive us our trespasses.

As we forgive those who trespass against us.

And lead us not into temptation,

but deliver us from evil.

For thine is the kingdom...

... and the power and the glory forever and ever.

Amen.

Oh! Hey!

How was your day?

Did you ever get mad at my mom?

Mmm.

All the time.

All the time.

Yeah, right now, I'm just...

really mad at Jordan.

I'm just...

I'm just mad at him.

You know, you can be mad at Jordan and love him at the same time.

You can hold both those things at once.

I-I know I do.

Thanks.

I think the reason I wanted to s-sleep at Shay's

is 'cause my entire life, I shared a room with Jordan.

I just...

I just wanted to be around another kid.

I didn't want to upset you.

Edward.

You can sleep wherever the hell you wanna sleep.

Okay?

Thanks.

Stay with me, buddy.

I'm doing homework.

What was with the text of the boat?

Uh, just something I do sometimes.

My family owned a boat.

You have to be a member of the club.

I didn't know if it would still be there after what happened.

And it was.

Well, that explains little.

I was at 405 Central Park West.

Oh, shit, did you meet her?

- Catch. - Ow! What the hell, Edward?

Look.

Tell me everything.

So her uncle was there and, um, she got really mad when I was in there.

- Of course. - So she pushed me out and then she, um...

- What did she do? - Yeah, then I got really mad at her.
