04x11 - Piece of Cake

Post by bunniefuu »

Yeah, there's a huge surprise party

waiting for you upstairs.

- What?
- Yeah, you should go.

- Gary...
- I think you should show up

for the rest of your life.

Previously on
"A Million Little Things"...

Oh, she's here.

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]

We couldn't let your th birthday go by

without us celebrating you.

I love you.

I struggle sometimes...

with depression.

A couple years ago,

I tried to end it.

All I want is to see you again.

I... really want to see you again, too.

How's right now?

[CHUCKLING] What?

I found out that the man
that I was in love with

was lying to me.

I can't do that again. I can't.

Anna, wait.

[APPLAUSE]

Where you going?

I think I got to get out of here.

♪ There's nothing you and I won't do ♪

♪ Let's stop the world ♪

♪ I'll stop the world
and melt with you ♪

MAGGIE: Wait!

What are you doing?

I'm showing up for the rest of my life.

♪ I'll stop the world
and melt with you ♪

[ELEVATOR BELL DINGS]

SOPHIE: That's our set! Thank you!

Hey, hey! There you are.

Here I am! [CHUCKLES]

Where you going? We're about
to cut your birthday cake.

And before you ask, it is big enough

for you to have seven midnight snacks.

- [BOTH CHUCKLE]
- Come on, Gare.

Everybody knows you can't
leave before birthday cake!

Leave?

Are you kidding? [LAUGHS]

Just gonna go get a fire
extinguisher. candles.

Only you can prevent
forest fires, am I right?

[QUIETLY] What am I saying?

Come on, everybody!

Come gather around the birthday girl!

Come on, now! Get in here.

Okay, and...

♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

♪ Happy birthday, dear Maggie ♪

♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]

Alright!

Go on.

Make a wish.

Speech! Speech! Speech! Speech! Speech!

[CHUCKLING] Okay, okay,

I will give a speech.

[CHUCKLES]

This whole party is just incredible.

And all of you being here

really means so much to me.

But, honestly, um...

I was afraid to make a big
deal out of this birthday.

You know, what Tom said
in the... in the, um, video

was right.

There was a time I didn't think

I would make it to .

And I wasn't gonna
fight to... to be here.

And then I changed my mind.

And I-I'm so glad I did,

because seeing you all here...

Dude, I thought you were leaving.

- Getting to celebrate with you...
- Yeah, that was before I realized

parking was a flat rate, so...

- Sorry.
- Came back to amortize my bucks.

[SIGHS]

I think I'm so emotional
standing here tonight

because I realize, um...

I realize how fragile life is.

[SNIFFLES]

Cam, I'm really glad
you threw this party.

And I'm really glad I
made the decision to come.

I mean that I didn't
just insist on staying in.

I know I'm rambling and,
um, I'm not thinking clearly

because I'm just really
overwhelmed by all of this.

But what I want to say is thank you.

I love you guys.

[ALL SPEAK INDISTINCTLY]

CAMDEN: Cheers!

[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]

You're perfect.

You sure you're okay?

Hmm?

Me? Yeah. Great. Never better.

It's... It's a lovely party, isn't it?

The whole evening is
just spectacular, really.

Lovely? Spectacular?

What the hell is going on with you, bro?

Oh, man, did you sneak outside
to smoke pot and not invite me?

No, I did not.

But, uh...

[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS]

Funny story.

I may have kissed the birthday girl.

Dude! Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.

And in case any of the
large Bruins players

who happen to be here
tonight ask, technically,

she kissed me.

When?!

Elevator.

- Dude! Okay, you know what? Sorry.
- Okay, I...

Just tell me everything that happened,

and don't skip a damn thing.

I'm in the elevator.

Doors are closing, and she gets on.

Yeah, she does.

I need you to bring it down by one half.

Okay. Continue.

I ask her, "What are you doing?"

Mm. And what'd she say?

She says, "I'm showing up
for the rest of my life."

And then she kisses me.

Oh, dude!

- Ow!
- Man! Oh.

That hurt.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

It's just, I've been...

I been waiting on this
for like two years, bro.

Me, too.

Yeah, man. I mean,
timing sucks, of course,

because, you know,

we're at this lovely,
spectacular birthday party

that her boyfriend threw for her.

Same guy that just gave a speech
about how much he loves her.

Yeah. [SIGHS]

And right now, she's
over there on his arm.

[LAUGHTER]

I'm well aware of where she is

and whose arm she's on, thank you.

No, I'm... I'm just saying that
if I didn't know about the kiss,

I would swear she was totally
into that guy, you know?

Okay, you know, I don't
want to talk about this

with you anymore,

so just do me a solid.

Keep it on the down-low.

Play it cool.

Oh, I'm the king of cool.

sh**t, I'm Joe Cool.

That's what I'm worried about.

♪ 'Cause I can't keep feeling
sorry that you don't know how ♪


Scotch, neat.

[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS]

SOPHIE: Happy birthday!

MAGGIE: Oh, Sophie! Mnh! Mm!

SOPHIE: This party is incredible.

Make it a double.

You guys were amazing.

Thank you so much for playing.

Well, it's the perfect night.
I mean, I even managed

to get out of having to talk to Gary.

[BOTH LAUGH]

That's amazing.

You okay? [CHUCKLES]

Yeah. Yeah, I'm great.

It's the perfect night.

Yeah, it is! Hey.

- Hey.
- Hi.

Hi. [LAUGHS]

- So good.
- Thank you.

ANNA: Coming!

[DOG BARKING IN DISTANCE]

[SIGHS]

Eddie, I really don't want
to talk about this ri...

Anna, please, just hear me out.

I know, in your last relationship,

your husband lied to you.

And the truth is,

I wasn't honest with
Katherine in my marriage,

and my mistakes ended things.

But I don't want things to end with us.

So, if we're gonna keep
seeing each other...

And I really hope we are...

I want to tell you the truth.
About everything.

[DOOR OPENS]

- Gotcha!
- Oh, my God.

[LAUGHS] You thought I was sleeping?

I was totally awake.

Uh-huh. Good one, T.

You know, I know there were
no kids at the party tonight,

but I look pretty good in a blazer.

I know, and I mentioned that to Maggie,

so she had me bring you
home a slice of cake.

Oh, nice. Can I...

Which you can have tomorrow.

That's okay. Grandma let me
have a cookie after dinner.

But don't tell her I told you.

She told me.

You can't trust that
woman with anything.

[LAUGHS] Okay. Love you.

Hey, Mom, can I ask you something?

Yeah.

That person you started seeing,

is his name Randy Kwan?

Mm. No.

[CHUCKLES]

How... How do you know who that is?

Grandma was talking the whole night

about what a great guy he is.

Of course she was.

Uh, no, he's...

He's not my type.

What is your type?

Um...

Y-You know what? This... This feels like

a morning conversation.

Okay.

Set a reminder.

Yeah.

Sweet dreams. [CHUCKLES]

So that's why my daughter,
Charlie, lives in France.

She is with her mother,

who is not Katherine,
the woman I cheated on.

Wow, that's a lot.

Anything else?

Nope. Did the alcoholism,

pill addiction, affair, and secret baby.

Oh. Also, I can't walk.

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

Those are just the headlines.

Now I'd like to open the floor
for any follow-up questions.

How about we do the Q&A

where the neighbors
can't hear everything?

[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS]

No, I don't need a gift receipt.

I'm sure it's great.
I've... I've always wanted

a six-person tent. [CHUCKLES]

- Hey.
- Hey.

Uh, so, listen, we should probably...

Talk about what happened? If you insist.

CAMDEN: Hey! There he is.

Guys. Guys, come here.

This is Gary.

He's the guy who stepped
in at the eleventh hour

to get Maggie here.

Thank you again for that, man.

Just happy to help, and, uh...

go B's! [LAUGHTER]

Well, Gary also happens
to be a huge Bruins fan.

Not of you, Kyle. Sorry. Uh... [LAUGHS]

So I just thought you might
want to meet some of the guys.

Go ahead, dude. Show him your ring.

Oh, no, y-you don't...

Wanna try it on? I got it when
I was playing for St. Louis.

I couldn't.

Well, maybe just for a second.

- It's...
- Yeah.

Hey, Maggie, I think I'm gonna go.

- So much heavier than it looks.
- KYLE: Yeah.

Aw, wait, you're leaving?

Yeah, this has been
really fun. I just...

I don't think I can stand
watching any more of... that.

Do "Coming Attractions Guy" again.

[DEEP VOICE] It was a
summer they'd never forget.

Two boys in the tennis
match of their lives.

One of them was lactose intolerant.

[NORMAL VOICE] Hello, ladies.

[DEEP VOICE] Joey Lawrence
and Antonio Banderas star

in a film so wacky, the
critics are already calling it

this year's wacky film. [LAUGHS]

You know he only brought
her to make you jealous.

Well, it's working.

Why don't you just
tell him how you feel?

What if I admit everything
and he rejects me?

Then you're exactly where you are now,

knowing at least you tried.

Oh, my God. This cake looks amazing.

GRETA: Isn't that the cake
you brought home for Theo?


I'm just gonna sneak a bite.

I didn't have a chance
to eat the whole night.

Oh, really?

What were you doing?

Burning off the calories
I'm about to eat.

Well, make sure you smooth out
the frosting so he can't tell.

Oh, I know how to do this.

Of all the firsts I've had this week,

sneaking dessert from my
-year-old isn't one of them.

[CHUCKLES] You should
see me on Halloween.


I can carry on a conversation
about "Minecraft"

without anyone realizing I
have a mouthful of KitKat.

Wow.

What other talents have
you been hiding from me?

Oof.

You okay?

Sugar rush?

Did you eat the rose?

Oh, he's totally gonna
know if you ate the rose.

[GLASS SHATTERS]

Mom?!

Katherine?

Katherine, are you there?

Can you hear me?

Hello?

Katherine!

Mom?

Mom!

Mom, are you okay?

- Mom?
- GRETA: Hello? Theo?

- Who is this?
- This is Greta.

I'm, uh... I'm a friend of your mom's.

Is she okay?

She fell. Her head's bleeding.

What do I do?

Listen to me. When I say so,

you're gonna hang up the phone,
and you're gonna call .


You're gonna tell them where you are

and that your mom needs an ambulance.

You know your address, right?

- Yes.
- That's great.

You are gonna tell
that to the dispatcher,

and then... and this
is really important...

You are gonna ask them to
stay on the phone with you

until the ambulance gets to the house.

- Can you do that?
- Yeah.

Okay. Hang up with me
and call right now.

Okay.

[LINE RINGING]

DISPATCHER: , what's your emergency?

[EMT RADIO CHATTER]

[AIR HISSING]

EMT: What do we do with the kid?

Come on, pal. You're gonna ride with us.

Let's hustle.

Dispatch, this is .

We'll be arriving with
an unaccompanied minor.

Please make Boston General ready.

EDDIE: Looking back, I don't know

how honest Katherine and I
ever were with each other.

I don't know how
comfortable she ever felt

telling me all the
things she was feeling.

I don't even know if anything
that Peter told me was true.

It's amazing how you
can live a double life

in your own marriage.

Yeah. [CHUCKLES]

Hey, look, I really... I...

I do appreciate you coming over here

and being honest with me.

Of course.

Wow, honesty really does pay off.

Mm-hmm, it really does.

[CELLPHONE VIBRATING]

Maybe it doesn't. Let me
just send this to voicemail.

_

[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS]

Hey. Um...

Have you, um,

taken a Polaroid and
written me a message yet?

- There's a table right over there.
- [CELLPHONE VIBRATING]

Oh, right over there.
Yeah, loo... Uh, Eddie.

My own personal Ernie. [CHUCKLES]

Now I understand why Bert never
had time to pluck his eyebrows.

Know what? I-I'll call him back.

Oh, yeah.

Oh.

It's Eddie.

EMT: -year-old female

presenting with ground-level
fall and head trauma.

Lacerations to the right
side of her forehead.

We put a pressure bandage on it.

Early indications show
no sign of heart att*ck.

BP in the field normal,
lead normal rhythm.

Oh, sweetie, you can't go back there.

- Wait, but I need to...
- We talked to your dad,

and he's on the way. Just have a seat.

What happened to my mom?

We're not totally sure, so
we're gonna run a few more tests.

But it's a good sign she's awake.

Just sit tight. Your dad
should be here soon.

The Moseley Fire burn
patient is arriving!

Third degree with possible
airway involvement!

She goes straight to the burn unit,

and a crash cric kit goes with her.

Let's move!

[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS]

Dad!

Mom fell. I found her on the
floor bleeding pretty bad.

I didn't know what to do.

You did great, pal.

Stay here. Let me see
if I can get an update.

No, no, no, wait. I want to go with you.

- I know, but...
- Hey.

We dropped Tyrell off at home

and got here as soon as we could.

- How's she doing?
- Any updates?

I'm gonna find out right now.

You mind keeping Theo company?

Just want to make sure...

Yeah, totally get it. Of course.

Hey, so, uh, what do
you say, little man?

If you can't spin this
into a sympathy candy bar,

you're really not trying.

Come on.

We just wanna know if she's okay.

How far away are we?

Oh, GPS says four minutes.

Thanks again for driving, man.

Hey, open bar.

I get it.

By the way, Devon and
Kyle loved you, man.

They want me to bring you
next time we play golf.

Uh, I don't think that's a good idea.

What? Why not?

My... My short game's
all over the place, dude.

Good. They like you enough already.

I'm not looking to be replaced.

[LAUGHS]

[SIGHS]

Hey, babe, she's gonna be okay.

[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS]

Yes, he is. Okay.

Okay, bye.

Hey. I know you're busy,

but I am still waiting
for an update on...

Katherine Kim, right. Sorry.

I'm just waiting to
hear from the attending.

Let me track her down.

Thanks.

Alright, because you didn't
pick, we picked for you.

So you... you got
the classic milk chocolate.

Not a lot of bells and whistles,
but certainly a crowd-pleaser.

And then there's this one.

It's sour and already opened

because I ate some. [CHUCKLES]

When do you think we're
gonna get an update?

Your dad said that he would text
us as soon as he heard anything.

[DOOR CLOSES]

My pleasure. Make sure
and post the good one, huh?

Okay, get well soon.

Hey, thanks again, Gary,
for, uh, taking that.

No problem. When we get stopped
by insurance groupies later,

you can return the favor. [CHUCKLES]

Any news yet?

No.

I just wish someone would
tell me if Mom's okay.

Hey, it's Theo, right?

Hi, Mr. Lamoureux.

My friends call me Cam.

Hi, Cam. My friends call me T.

Well, T, I just want you to know
this is a really good hospital.

These doctors have taken
care of me more than once.

Sometimes the puck doesn't always end up

where it's supposed to.

I've got teeth in my
mouth. Only are original.

- Cool!
- Yeah.

And, hey, you know, as scary as it is

to not know what's
going on with your mom,

now you and I have time to hang out.

I know I, for one, cannot wait
to tell my friends tomorrow

that you and I got to
play "Connect " together.

What do you say? You wanna play?

- Yeah.
- Alright, come on.

Let's do it.

Okay, I'm gonna put it
in here. I'm closing it.

I-It's... It's in there, right?

Uh, no.

- What the...
- It's right here.

- [LAUGHS] What the...?
- Should I try it again, or...

Just when you think this
guy can't get any better.

You must be so happy.

Yeah, he's pretty perfect.

You know, not only did he
insist on paying us to cater,

he's already given our names

to three of his friends who have
parties coming up next month.

And I was telling Rome that
Valerie and I were actually

talking about doing this
on a larger scale, maybe...

starting a catering company.

Mm! Gina, that's great!

Yeah, third time's a charm. [CHUCKLES]

What was that?

Nothing. [SIGHS]

He didn't mean it.

He's just...

He's going through a lot right now.

The hell is going on?

Did you talk to Maggie?
What is it, a bake-off now?

- What's happening?
- Shh!

It's very complicated.

And how about next time
we leave the same party

to go to the same hospital,
you offer me a ride?

Oh. That's totally my bad.

Yeah.

_

Excuse me. I-I'm
looking for a patient...

Katherine Kim?

Yeah, um, I was just about to
bring him back to see her.

Are you immediate family?

Um... I'm sorry,

you can't come back unless
you're immediate family.

She is immediate family.

She's my sister.

He got the chin. I got the hair.

We have an older brother
with the most beautiful hands.

Okay.

Follow me.

Give me one sec. I know
the doctor was in with her

reviewing her EKG.
Let me see if they're done.

[SIGHS]

[DOOR CLOSES]

Thanks for doing that.

I'm... I'm Greta.

I know exactly who you are.

Oh.

I didn't realize Katherine...

She didn't.

Next time you make out
with someone in a coat room,

you might want to actually
hide behind a coat.

Or don't be one of those weird
creeps who likes to watch.

Good point.

- [BOTH LAUGH]
- DOCTOR: Hey, folks.

She's doing fine. She's
just a little banged up.

[BOTH SIGH]

What happened?

We believe she had what's
called vasovagal syncope,

which is basically
when your blood pressure

and your heart rate
drop at the same time.

Your body just wants to
get blood to your brain,

so it tries to get you
horizontal as fast as possible.

We want to run a few tests
just to rule out anything else.

In the meantime, she had a
pretty nasty cut on her head,

which she's gotten stitches for.

But there aren't any
signs of a concussion.

You can go in and see her now.

- Thank you, Doctor.
- Of course.

I'm gonna text Theo and everyone,

let them know she's okay.

Why don't you go in first?

Let her know how we know each other.

[MONITORS BEEPING]

You know, when I said I always
wanted you to fall for me,

this is not what I meant.

[CHUCKLES]

Greta, what are you doing here?

Well, I came to check on you.

You ended our phone call very abruptly.

I can't believe I passed out like that.

Um, listen, I love that you're here,

but, uh,

the nurse said they're getting Eddie...

He's right outside.

Does he know about us?

He saw us making out in the coat closet.

Which, ironically, you just came out of.

Relax. He was cool about it.

In fact, he's the one who got me in.

If anyone asks, he's my brother.

[SIGHS]

Hopefully, no one asks.

[LAUGHS]

I'm so glad you're okay.

You had me very worried.

[YAWNS]

REGINA: Guys, you saw Eddie's text.

Katherine's fine. It's late.
You should go home.

Yeah, and let you take all the credit?

Heh, heh. Nice try.

[YAWNS]

Nothing about tonight
went the way I expected.

What do you mean?


I mean, obviously
Katherine, but what else?

Well, you know, there...
there... there was

the surprise party, right?

I mean, obviously, I knew
about that, but Maggie did not.

You know, just certain
things that not everyone knew,

but now we all know them,
so everything's fine,

and we can just...
I'd say move on, you know?

Sorry, guys. It's just
a sugar rush, man, you know?

Sour Patches.

Hey.

I'm sorry.

I just really wanted tonight
to be perfect for you.

Well, it was.

[WHISPERING] What the hell is going on?

[CLEARS THROAT]

- [CELLPHONE VIBRATES]
- [GASPS]

What?!

- [GASPS]
- MAGGIE: What?

Uh, y-you're never gonna believe this.

They are now saying
gluten-free is bad for you.

Yeah, I heard that.

That's why I usually stick to Snickers.

Smart kid.

Wait, who's texting
you that at : a.m.?

[CLICKS TONGUE]

Rome.

Yeah, I read it on... on Facebook.

You know? It's probably not even true.

Just Big Flour doing everything
in its power to stay afloat.

What's crazy is, there are so many items

you wouldn't think have
gluten that have it.

- Like soy sauce.
- Wait, what?

Yeah, and rotisserie chicken.

I'm starting to think I
don't know what gluten is.

Oh, it's that thing in soy
sauce and rotisserie chicken.

[LAUGHS]

I think I'm gonna get
something to drink.

Yeah.

You want anything, Joe Cool?

- I'm good.
- [CHUCKLES]

Okay.

Uh, I'll go with you.

Okay, let's go. My treat.

Excuse me. Mr. Lamoureux?

Hey. I-I'm so sorry to bother you,

but my son is here
having his appendix out,

and he's such a huge fan.

He's... He's literally
just around the corner.

Would you mind coming to his
room and saying a quick hello?

Oh, uh, I'm actually...

Hey, Bruce Wayne.

You can't ignore the Bat Signal.

Go cheer up a sick kid, huh?
We'll get you a Dr Pepper.

- You sure?
- Yeah.

See you in a sec.

Okay. Let's do this.

- [LAUGHING] Alright.
- Alright.

He's had your poster
on his wall since...

[GARY SIGHS]

MAGGIE: I am so sorry.

I really wanted to talk to you sooner.

I am so sorry I kissed you like that.

I mean, I'm not sorry I kissed you.

I'm just sorry it happened like that.

- What the hell was that?
- I don't know.

I... D... Turning ,

and... and hearing
everything that you said to me

in the elevator on the ride up

about how my whole life
has led to this moment

and I need to s... I need
to show up for this moment,

and I-I just... I showed up.

No, what you did was kiss me

at the $ , birthday party

that your boyfriend threw for you.

You kissed me back.

Of course I kissed you back.
You know how long...

I've wanted to kiss you back?

Look, I know it's not the best timing...

Not the best timing?

What's your plan here?

I-I don't know, but
we'll... We'll figure it out.

No.

No. We won't "figure it out."

That doesn't work. You
wanna know how I know that?

Because that's what you said to me

two years ago when you found the ring.

When you didn't know what
your life was without cancer,

I said we would figure it out together.

And you told me that...
That we couldn't do that.

So were you wrong then?

No, you were right.

I didn't mean for the
kiss to happen like that.

I just... I got caught up in the moment.

Well, I c... I can't risk

that you're just caught up
in the moment again.

Do you have any idea how hard it was

to go into a pawn shop and sell the ring

that I bought for
the woman that I thought

I was gonna spend the
rest of my life with?

It's taken everything
in me to get to a place

where I can be happy with
us just being friends.

I can't go through that again.

I won't.

Oh, look. Your boyfriend's back.

Hey, what's going on here?

I was promised a soda.

Yeah. Let's get you that soda.

[CHUCKLES]

So y-you might have a little scar,
but I can tattoo right over it.

You've always wanted a face tattoo.

[LAUGHS] You told me so in high school.

And if you don't remember,
well, you hit your head, so...

[LAUGHING] Ow.

Oh, it hurts to laugh.

Not looking. Just want to grab my coat.

Hilarious.

How are you feeling?

Oh, like our family

should have a wing of the
hospital named after us

after all the business we've given them.

You know,

I'm gonna sneak out and
let you get some rest.

Okay.

Thanks for getting me in.

You're welcome.

Hope to see you again. Not here.

[LAUGHS]

And, uh, don't forget to call Mom.

Because he's my brother.

Please, I've been
through enough tonight.

I'll call you when I get home.

Okay.

[SIGHS]

So you're dating her and a married guy?

Oh, stop. [LAUGHS]

I'm sorry I made an assumption earlier.

Uh, well, not your fault.

I didn't correct you.

Well, obviously, I have some questions,

but for now,

I am just glad you're okay.

[SIGHS] Thanks.

Hey, Theo really wants to see you.

Does he know about me and Greta?

No. That's for you to share.

Thanks. And I will. Uh,
when the time is right.

Hey, Katherine...

You know, rushing over here tonight,

I can only imagine

what you were feeling
during my accident.

I really am glad you're okay.

Thanks.

I never thought we'd get
a moment alone together.

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

Maggie, I-I'm really sorry.

For what?

Well, hearing your speech tonight,

I had no idea what this
birthday was for you.

I should have listened to you

when you said you didn't want
to do anything big for it.

I thought you were just

trying not to be high-maintenance,

which, obviously, you are.

Obviously.

[CHUCKLES]

Hey, y-you don't need to apologize.

I should have told you,

and I didn't 'cause I didn't...

know if you would understand.

Honestly, it's silly.

It's not silly.

Look, I may not always understand

everything you're going through,

but I don't want you to be
afraid to share it with me.

'Cause every time I learn
something new about you,

it just makes me love you even more.

[INDISTINCT CONVERSATIONS]

Hey, Gary. Hey.

Can't believe you're here.

I'm so sorry, man. You...
You just missed her.

Missed who?

Wait, what are you doing here?

Um, a friend of mine just
got rushed to the hospital.

She's okay. Just waiting to see her.

What are you doing here?

Gail just passed away.

What?

No.

No, that... that... that...
That can't be right.

I-I just saw you a few hours ago.

I thought she was doing better.

I thought so, too.

Uh, I-I came here for
visiting hours tonight,

and... and... And one minute,

she's forcing Hector and
me to watch "Casablanca,"

and then the next minute,
she's having trouble breathing.

[STAMMERS] I...

She passed away an hour ago.

I was just here helping
Hector make some arrangements.

I'm so sorry, man.

Me, too, man. I-I-It
all happened so fast.

I really thought she had more time.

Kev, I-I'm sorry, but
I-I gotta go, okay?

Yeah.

Hey.

[PANTING]

Where you guys going?

Where have you been?
Katherine's being discharged.

Theo and Eddie went to get the car

to bring it around to take her home.

And we're about to head
out. We thought you left.

Where's Maggie?

Uh, she...

left about five minutes ago with Cam.

Great.

Awesome. Uh...

Okay, sounds like...

everything worked out.

I'm gonna go.

Don't you need a ride?

Nah, nah.

I'm just gonna walk.

Thank you for everything today.

I really appreciate
you being there for me.

Of course.

And I'm just a phone call
away if you need anything.

Thanks.

Okay, good night.

Good night.

[CELLPHONE BEEPS]

Is she okay?

Yeah.

Listen...

I am sorry that our plans got messed up,

and I'm sorry that you had to
spend most of your night waiting

while I took care of my ex-wife.

Well, if this is how you treat

a woman you're not married to anymore...

- [SCOFFS]
- [LAUGHS]

But things are definitely
over between you two, right?

Definitely.

Okay. [CHUCKLES]

It's late. I should
let you get some sleep.

I just wanted to make sure
our date ended properly.

I kind of wish it didn't have to end.

But the thing is,

I haven't actually been with
anyone since Peter, and...

I'm not sure how much
I want to have happen.

How about I just follow your lead?

Okay.

- [CAR ALARM BEEPS]
- [SIGHS]

Hey, Rome?

Never mind.

What is it?

[SIGHS] No, it's... it's just...

[CAR DOORS CLOSE]

[SIGHS]

Earlier, when I told you

I wanted to open another
restaurant, you said...

"The third time's a charm." And I...

Oh, babe...

I'm sorry.

I said it without thinking.

I didn't mean it.

I know.

And I know part of it's probably
me being over-sensitive.

No, you're not.

I'm sorry.

I did the same thing
with Tyrell earlier.

It's the depression.
I'm just not myself.

I get it. You're going through a lot.

But, babe,

you're not the only one
going through your depression.

I know you're doing everything you can,

and I accept your apology,

but I need you to realize that...

it's hard on all of us, because
we're going through it, too.

You're right.

And I am sorry.

Thank you.

Gina,

I need you to know this...

You are still the most
amazing person I've ever met.

And I believe in you completely.

Hop in.

What's that?

Oh, this is a... It's a heart monitor.

They want me to wear
it for the next hours

just to make sure everything's okay.

Must have been really
scary to find me like that.

Yeah, it was.

But Greta told me what to do.

She's really nice.

Who is she? I've never met her before.

She said she was one of your friends.

Actually, T, um, Greta is...

Do you think something like
this is gonna happen again?

Possibly, but, um,

you know, they checked
my heart a bunch tonight,

and it's very strong.

You know, the only thing dangerous

about me fainting the way that I did

is if I hit my head.

But they told me how to look
for signs when I feel faint

so I can lie down before
I have a chance to fall.

Is it okay if I sleep in here tonight?

Of course.

Come on.

Get cozy.

I'm sorry for making you wait.

Maggie.

I shouldn't have kissed
you in the elevator.

I should have waited
until I broke up with Cam,

which I just did.

And it's not because I turned .

It's not because I got
caught up in the moment.

It's because...
