Previously on "A Million Little Things"...

GARY: I will do whatever it takes to get you well, and we will fight this thing together.

I didn't make partner.

Then why are you smiling?

'Cause I just got my life back.

Can we talk about last night?

You've got to admit, there's some advantages to me being off my meds.

The commercial loan that Jon took out was for some properties he was underwater on.

How much does he owe?

$ million. And it's what you owe.

GARY: We've got to be missing something.

The Jon I knew would not have left his family like this... no way.

KATHERINE: Someone's been making payments to Jon's loan since he d*ed.

- Ashley?
- I'm looking at the account right now.

- Rutledge Trust.
- GARY: Rutledge...

It was a term we came up with as a shorthand.

- For what?
- Take care of my family.

Please don't tell anybody about this place.

Your secret's safe with me.

- We need to talk.
- No, Ashley, we don't.

You owe this to him! [SIGHS]

Good morning, Gus.

Morning.

- Where are the guys?
- Well, Marty called their rooms.

- I'm guessing they overslept again.
- That's interesting.

The guys who were still up three hours ago overslept.

[CHUCKLES]

[CELLPHONE VIBRATING]

Everything okay?

Uh, yeah, it's just Theo.

- Is he hurt?
- No.

He just hasn't been acting like himself lately.

I think something's going on at school.

Thanks.

Mrs. Cleary said that he hasn't been hanging out with his friends.

You know, he's been going to the library during recess.

- Well, you know...
- Even more than usual.

Have you asked him about it?

Yeah, he's not really talking.

I think he needs some Dad Time.

Well, we're coming through today, on our way to Connecticut.

If you are up for it, maybe you can meet up with us and Theo can spend the night with me.

A -year-old on a tour bus?

I'll talk to the guys.

I promise they'll be on their best behavior.

What's up, assbags?!

Did he just just say...

I'll... I'll... I'll... I'll talk to the guys.

ASHLEY: This is Ashley. Please leave a message.

- [BEEP]
- Ashley, call me back, please.

Katherine said you've been making payments on Jon's business loans?

- I have to know what's going on. Please.
- SOPHIE: Hey, Mom.

- We're about to lose our house.
- Are we doing this driving lesson?

Mom, you said you'd take me for my driving lesson today.

You can't keep me locked in this house forever.

Maggie, I have your results.

Okay, um, there has been an eight percent reduction in the tumor.

So the chemo seems to be effective.

If we can get it to shrink by at least another eight percent, then we can remove it without affecting the healthy tissue.

- [SIGHS]
- Oh, my God. Hot damn, huh?

We're not out of the woods yet.

We need to continue the chemo so the tumor is small enough that surgery is an option.

Congratulations. That's amazing.

SOPHIE: Yeah, it really is.

She went to pick up our wedding album.

Wedding alb... Haven't you guys been married

- for like four years?
- And yet I feel like I've been hearing about this album for years.

Negative Gary's back, you guys.

- Welcome back.
- Aw.

- Wasn't gone for long.
- Yeah.

So an offer? I-I... I don't understand.

Apparently, when Jon first bought the buildings, there were plans for a subway stop to go in.

And if it had, the properties would have doubled in value.

That's why he overpaid for them.

He would have made a fortune.

But now, the subway is back on the table, and there's an investor who believes the vote will pass.

We got an e-mail saying he's gonna make an offer.

Well, that's great. Right? We don't you sound more excited?

Because the subway stop is not a sure thing, so the offer won't be huge.

Most likely, you'll still be upside down.

- By how much?
- I'm not sure.

I want us to get on the phone with their lawyer as soon as possible.

We have to move quickly because the subway vote is tomorrow at : , and if it doesn't pass, they'll pull the offer.

Okay.

Let me, uh... Let me just tell Soph.

[CLICKING]

GARY: You need to make an album about the making of your wedding album.

- Mom, are you ready?
- Uh, sweetie,

Katherine and I need to do something right now.

So... You know what? I'll teach you how to drive.

And then I'll teach you how to drive correctly.

Oh, you won't be driving today.

There is a problem with the album.

He wants to talk to "the man."

- Oh, God.
- So, here, Berge.

Here's "the man."

Berge, did you really say that?

- Hello, Jerome.
- Berge, what did you...

How can I illuminate the situation today

- with this woman, who is so difficult...
- Berge, listen to me.

No, it is your ears that need to listen to me, Rome, because...

Berge, stop talking.

I cannot... I cannot stop talking

- because she bring to my creative space...
- You're only making it worse.

- ...the pollution of the emotions.

I'm looking at it. It is so voluptuous.

I'm sure it is.

Open to the first page.
Tell me what you see.

Okay. I see Miss Gina in a very delicious dress.

No, what you see is the picture of the only person in the world

- that I am allowed to have sex with.
- Ooh.

So whatever Gina wants to happen is what's going to happen.

If Gina says, "Give Berge an extra hundred dollars," you walk away with a Benjamin.

If Gina says, "Tell Berge to shove this entire album up his..."

I don't even think this would fit up there.

- [CHUCKLING] Sorry.
- Geez.

Hey, Carter, just calling to check if we got that offer.

You know I would tell you.

So... So the real reason you're calling is you're worried about your hot date.

Look, it's just the only person I've been with since Theo was born cheated on me.

How do I know I'm what he wants?

Lady, you are a smoke show.

You are testing the limits of my sexual orientation.

Oh, well, that depends.

Jon leveraged the entire business against something he thought was a sure thing.

Kept moving money around, borrowing from different deals.

That's why he took out the mortgage on the house.

To buy time. And it was working.

And then during the call, he changed his clothes like he was going somewhere.

But if he had been going somewhere, then I would have known about it.
