01x02 - Sort Of Back

[bunniefuu]

Don't look at
Mackenzie Killinghall's socials?

Lewis's ex?
He's cheating on me.

And he went back to women.

Also consider your a*s dumped.

You're a part-time nanny.

Move to Berlin with me.
- What?

We leave Monday.

You can stay on until Christmas
and then that's it.

Merry Christmas to me.

I'm saying yes to you, papi.

I'm gonna miss you.

And yes to Berlin.

Bessy got into an accident on her bike.

She's non-responsive.

- Hello?
- We're going to Berlin!

We 're going to Berlin! Baby!

7ven, I can't... I can't talk right now.

What happened?

Um...

We're just supposed to, like, go to school
when Mum is in the hospital?

We don't know
how serious anything is right now.

Dad said "non-responsive".

Non-responsive
can mean a lot of things

like when you don't respond to a text.

That's probably not what he meant.

We literally have no information yet.

Henry, whoa! Don't walk into the street!

Why are you lying to me?
- OK, Henry, wait.

Vi, I know it's scary

but until we know what
we're dealing with, it's a normal day.

We fired you.
You're not even our nanny anymore.

Seriously?

Do you know how dangerous
what you just did is?

- Whatever!
- Come on!

Whatever!

You have to watch her better.
- Thanks for the advice, Priscilla.

OK, Henry.

OK.

Game thingy.

You OK?

Yep.

- Hello?
- Hey.

Yeah, h... hold on.
- I just wanted to...

She must've been going at a good clip.
Is she a serious cyclist?

Um, yeah.
— Hmm.

Maybe she was distracted.

She ran right into a parked poutine truck.

Oh, wow...

Yeah, police told me.

OK, so you know
that she was intubated at the scene?

She was intubated?

She stopped breathing?
— Oh, no, she never stopped.

They intubate so she doesn't vomit
into her lungs while she's unconscious.

Oh.
— Yeah.

- Ew.
- She ls super lucky to be alive.

We're just waiting to get her
into a CT scan

take a look at her brain
and cervical spine.

That is so real.

Yes, King.

I need all your deets for booking
la flight to Germania and whatnot.

Uh, amazing.
I'll... I'll be home in a bit.

Ah...

Do you ever reflect on how
small-minded we were in high school?

Like GO-Training to the Eaton Centre
was expanding our horizons.

What a joke we were.
We're gonna see the world now, boo!

We're gonna bloom like edelweiss.

We're gonna deep throat so much...

sh*t, I'm at work, OK?
I love you, bye.

Hey, baby! Hey!

Just get in, five minutes!

Baby!

I just wanna talk to you!

Sabi, come on, please!

Alright. Alright!

You're not the only one on the road!

You're whistlin' in my ear!

Hold your horses!
- Sabi! Sa...

Why won't you talk to me?

He can see you, Sabi.
We can all see you.

Please!

I can't hear!
Did you say something?

Call me!

Call me!

Hi, I'm Lloyd.

Hey, Lloyd, I'm... I'm Paul.
- Paul.

Hi.

So, my job is to support
the medical staff.

Does that make sense?

Yeah, why wouldn't that make sense?

Yeah.

OK, so, um... medications.

Is Bessy on blood thinners?

Oh, um...

I... I don't think so.

It's a tough day.
I know, I'm sorry.

I hate to pester you.

Just tell me anything you can think of.

She likes, uh, Missy Elliot.

Hmm.

Uh, the woman she dated before me
was an OBGYN.

Can we stick to medications
and allergies, just for me?

Uh, retinol.
— Retinol.

OK.

Retinol...
— Uh, can I just make a call?

Mm-hmm.
Yeah, of course.

Yeah, take your time.
- OK.

Oh, I see you have her belongings.
- Mm-hmm.

Mmm, good.

I'm gonna be in my office.

OK.
- OK.

Thanks.

Who's Penny?

What am I looking for?

Just read me the medication labels.

She doesn't have any allergies
to any meds.

How do you know that?
— Oh sh*t, that's a lot of pills.

Valacyclovir, Lorazepam, Rogaine.

Those are mine.

Huh, tiny rainbow vibrator?

It's not mine.

Uh, there should be a file in the cabinet
underneath the, uh, the lion shelf.

OK.

I don't even know why she likes lions.

I just know that she does.

They roar, that's it.
That's the whole reason.

I really should know this stuff about her.

OK, so banking, insurance

investments, continuity plan...

Uh, continuity plan.

Yeah, just give me one second...

Paul...

Did you know your blood type
is B negative?

She was on Escitalopram?

Sounds super legit.

Yeah, it's a... an antidepressant.

Oh, sh*t.

Hey, did she ever, um...

She ever mention a friend named "Penny"?

Um, no.

Oh, did you cancel your patients
for the rest of the day?

No, I didn't think to do that.
Thank you.

Also, what should I say to the kids?

Oh, God.

Um...

Can we, uh... just, uh, say we...

!I'm sorry,
I'm kinda freakin' out right now.

/-1 gotta go.

How the f*ck did I not know
you were depressed?

That tops slays.

Like, I'm dead.

I'll leave you here.
- Thanks, Nalidi.

Why are you here?
Is it Mum?

What? No, no, it's Bessy.

Who?
- My nanny-boss.

She was in a really bad accident.

Is she insured?

What? No. I don't know.

Can you stop working early
and take lunch with me now?

Hang on, I have someone on hold.

Would I be able to give you
a call back in about...

an hour?

No, no, no, no, no.

Take pictures of the shed
after the firefighters are done.

Yeah. OK, ciao.

That person's shed was on fire?
- Yeah.

Happens a lot, actually.

Talk to me.

I don't know. If I don't go
to Berlin now, I feel like I never will.

You're thinking about not going to Berlin?

You can't not go to Berlin.

OK.
— You need to be as super far

from your stale-a*s life as possible

for your general development.

OK, but Bessy was...

She wasn't just my boss, she was like...

It's not like we hung out,
hung out, but...

she was the first person
to ask me what my pronouns were

before I even knew to ask that, so...

Well, she has a family.

No, see, that's the thing.

She doesn't. There's, like, no support.

She has one sister in Australia
and both her parents are dead.

And Paul's family is super sketch.

It just feels wrong to not be here for her.

For them.

I don't know.
- OK, um...

I see what you're saying now, but...

I think that you're looking at it wrong.

Like, going or not going,
as if it's a choice.

It's not?

Let it not be a choice.

Some things are just too big
to be choices.

Like, acknowledge that.

Sorry, one second.

It's the school.

Hello?

Violet
was sent to the principal's office...

Oh, my God.
I'll be right over, thanks.

I have to go.

I'm so sorry, Aqsa.
- Wait!

I'll call you or text you.

I thought we were going to lunch!
— Sorry, sorry.

I'm hungry!
- Oh, this is not the right way.

I'm hungry...
- Uh, b-bye!

Hi, I'm here about—-
- Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah.

Yes, I will find someone to help you.
Please hold.

Uh, please stand behind the line.

New school policy.

Yeah, I'm here to take her home.

Oh, um, Violet was sent down
to speak to the vice principal

when she punched one of her
classmates in the "va-ginal" region.

I pushed her in the "vaginal" region.

I'm not a monster.

Sorry.

Uh, who are you, exactly?

Sabi Mehboob, Violet's nanny.
I'm third on the emergency contact list.

Can I see some ID?

Seriously?

Uh-huh.

Uh, there.

You can put your ID on the desk
over there.

You think my ID might be fake?
Because what would be my plan here?

Break her out of school
SO we can get high

and go to, like, the mall?

No.

Is this your nanny?

I have no idea who that person is.

But Sabi's on the list of people
authorized to pick her up, no?

So what's the problem?

Violet says she doesn't
know this, uh, person.

Uh, put my daughter on, please.

Your father wants to talk to you.

What's happening with Mum?

OK, why are you pretending
you don't know who Sabi is?

Why are you suppressing information?

I... I can't talk right now. I...

Just put... put Sabi on.

Sabi who?
— Stop it!

He wants to talk to Sabi.

Uh, I'll just transfer it onto the phone
on the other side of the room.

Hey. - Hey, I...

I can't believe the school's pulling this.

What do I do?
- Just white savior it

so I can take her home.
- Oh.

Uh...

Yes, hello again.
- Hey.

Yeah, I just got news that my wife is
about to have a piece of skull removed

so they can give room
for her brain to swell.

Oh.
- Yeah, that wasn't the plan

when she left for work this morning.
You understand that?

I am so sorry.
- What's he so sorry about?

So, hey, I... I have an idea.

What if you let the person authorized
to take my daughter home

take my daughter home!

I wish your wife all the best.

What did he tell you?

I don't feel it's up for me to say.

Ugh!

All I know is she had an accident
on her bike and it's pretty serious.

But I don't know how serious.

And your dad's totally gonna fill you in
when he's able to wrap his head around this.

Who's the guy on our porch?

Are you kidding me?

- Sabi!
- Oh, my God.

Is he gonna mug us?
- It's OK, Vi.

It's fine, I know him.
- I need to talk to you.

Um, yeah, I'm a bit maxed
on aggro white dudes

being in my face today.

I wanna be with you. I love you!

Yeah, do you think now's
the perfect time for this?

Read the room.

But I love you! I know that now!

I totally know that I love you!
Sabi!

Apparently, that guy totally knows
he loves you.

Yeah, I don't wanna talk about it.

You don't wanna talk about anything!

You'd rather lie, cos liars gonna lie!

Just like Dad!

Violet, he was in the middle of major stuff

which you made worse
by vag-punching a classmate.

Now, we can doomsday
the crap out of this

or we can stop guessing
until we get real info.

But Dad has real info.

Sometimes people suck at the truth.

Just give him a minute.

Oh, guten tag!

My name is Mila Meyer—Landrut

and I am #GermaninstagramModel.

I'm so very excited for your recent visit

that I am screaming inside my heart!

Even though
round animals are my first love

I also enjoy Bollywood dance

Jumping into your feelings, and spit play.
Ah!

#PeaceOnEarth!

#We'reGoingToBerlinBitch!

Sabi.

Sabi.

Sabi.

Sabi, Sabi, Sabi, Sabi, Sabi

Sabi, Sabi, Sabi, Sabi, Sabi.

Oh, my God.

Are you worried that
your mum hasn't called you today?

Is this it?

Like, she sees you.

She finally really sees you.

And you're just never gonna talk again.

Sabi, wake up.

Oh, my God.

Sabi, wake up.

We have to pick Henry up!

Is that Dad's car
parked in front of the house?

He's just sitting there.

Why doesn't he just come inside?

Cos he doesn't wanna face us.
Oh, my God, Mum's dead.

Violet, look at me.

Look at me.

You can see your dad's
not in a good place, right?

He's probably got some really awful news

but not like "awful" awful,
because he would have told me.

Your mum's not dead, OK?

OK.
- OK?

So someone has to talk to your father

and someone has
to make you both a snack, right?

Which one do you wanna do?

I'll make the snack.

Mm-hmm. OK.

OK, Henry, let's go.

How bad is she?

She had surgery.

On her... brain.

We don't know when
she'll be conscious again.

Couple days, couple weeks...
Never.

After three weeks,
then statistically it's...

It's bad.

Hey, uh, why didn't you
answer your phone earlier?

I forgot.

Can you do something for me?

Yeah?
- Don't ever not answer your phone.

Arm...

allowed to hang out with my friends?

What? Yeah, of course
you can hang out with your friends.

You're messing with me.

Weird timing.

Well, I... I kind of didn't know
what to say to that...

massively possessive ask

like, I'm not supposed to.
- Yes. No, I... I got it. I got it.

You are gonna have to
say something to them

or Violet's gonna start
lighting sh*t on fire.

Why can't I just talk to them?

I can't even look at them.

I feel like the worst father.

I think showing them you're human

is being a good father.

Hey, guys.

Um, sorry, I...

Um, I just wanna talk...

I love you guys so much.

Listen.

Um, yeah?

I can't tell you how much—-
- Please, don't.

This was the hardest day of my life.

She is...

everything to me.

She is a lot to everyone.

I know you said you weren't
able to take on more hours...

I... I found room in my schedule.

Thank you.

It's... it's not even a choice.

Um, I will see you in the morning.

What up?

You wanna watch me
buy those plane tickets?

Are you freaking out? It's normal.

International move. It's huge!

But this is it, Sabi.

This is gonna be the fulcrum
of our existence

like, there's gonna be us pre-Berlin
and then us post-Berlin.

Oh, sh*t, sh*t, sh*t,
you're back-pedaling. Don't!

You are about to supernova

into extreme self-realization, Sabi.

Don't let fear turn you into
an empty shell of unlived life.

I'm not going to Berlin.

You would do anything
to run away from yourself.

You're constitutionally incapable

of living any kind of truth
about who you are.

You break my heart!
