00:00:00Just in time.
00:00:02All right.
00:00:04Anna, you've got this.
00:00:06You're gonna go in there,
00:00:08you're gonna wow the fancy CEO guest lecturer,
00:00:10and you're gonna be so amazing
00:00:12that he offers you a job on the spot.
00:00:14Hello, everyone.
00:00:16Welcome to the Foundations of Business.
00:00:18My friend, Professor Barnes,
00:00:20has invited me to be a guest lecturer for the semester.
00:00:22My name is James Chapman.
00:00:26Anna?
00:00:30Hi.
00:00:52Come on, we don't need to do anything.
00:00:54James, James, James.
00:00:56James, I need to focus.
00:00:58You don't need to talk to me anymore.
00:01:00Whatever happened to my success is our success.
00:01:02Um, okay.
00:01:04How about next year when I get into Columbia?
00:01:06Then we can goof off all that we want.
00:01:08That's your plan? Radio silence
00:01:10until you're an official Columbo?
00:01:12That is not what I said.
00:01:14We will talk every day. I promise.
00:01:16Biggie promise?
00:01:20You're a child.
00:01:22Mm-hmm.
00:01:28How's class?
00:01:44Did you finally learn the secret
00:01:46to starting the perfect business?
00:01:48No.
00:01:50I didn't go.
00:01:52You cut class?
00:01:54That lecturer must have been.
00:01:56Wait, what happened?
00:01:58You know, Becca,
00:02:00how to cheat on your girlfriend and move a thousand miles away
00:02:02and start blocking her phone calls
00:02:04wasn't exactly in the lesson plan, so...
00:02:06I am so sorry, Anna.
00:02:10It's been almost nine years.
00:02:12There's so much I wanted to tell him about.
00:02:14You know, I haven't even had the chance
00:02:16to tell him about.
00:02:18About what, Mom?
00:02:20She forgot to tell you
00:02:22about a very
00:02:24special dessert
00:02:26we have planned for after dinner.
00:02:28Cupcakes?
00:02:30I don't know. We're gonna have to wait and see.
00:02:32Sweets.
00:02:34Mom, can we meet on the couch?
00:02:36Absolutely. Just give me a second, okay?
00:02:40You, my friend,
00:02:42are the best honorary mom
00:02:44a girl could ask for.
00:02:46Anything for my perfect class-cutting
00:02:48honorary daughter.
00:02:50Hey.
00:02:52You know, the best thing my mom did
00:02:54was break up with James for me.
00:02:56Cruel as she is,
00:02:58she always knew he was bad news.
00:03:00Anna,
00:03:02I know you have a lot of complicated feelings about James,
00:03:04but you need to tell him
00:03:06about Olivia.
00:03:08She's his daughter. It's only right.
00:03:10Mom,
00:03:12where are you?
00:03:14I'm coming, sweetie.
00:03:16I am not telling him
00:03:18anything.
00:03:28Look who decided to join.
00:03:30Listen, I don't know
00:03:32why you're here, why you're deciding to torture me,
00:03:34but... I can assure you me being here
00:03:36has nothing to do with you.
00:03:38This class is important to me.
00:03:40Just please promise me
00:03:42you'll behave yourself.
00:03:46Okay.
00:04:02Mr. Chapman,
00:04:04are you all right?
00:04:06Never better.
00:04:08Let's talk
00:04:10about my favorite part of business.
00:04:12The customer.
00:04:14There is no more important relationship
00:04:16than the one that you share
00:04:18with your customer. And how do you gain
00:04:20the trust of a customer?
00:04:22Honesty.
00:04:28Brand loyalty is a two-way street.
00:04:30They give us our business,
00:04:32and in return, we provide a consistent,
00:04:34positive experience.
00:04:36But they're not always with us.
00:04:38So the question remains.
00:04:40How do we show that we care
00:04:42from afar?
00:04:44Consistent communication.
00:04:46Are you kidding me?
00:04:52This is a safe place for discussion.
00:04:56Actually, you know what? I think we could all benefit
00:04:58from a healthy debate.
00:05:00Anna, was it? Would you mind coming up here, please?
00:05:02Not at all.
00:05:08So, you disagree with my thesis.
00:05:10Well, no.
00:05:12I think communicating with your customers regularly
00:05:14is essential.
00:05:16Oh, well, that was a short...
00:05:18But I do believe that your love for your customers is...
00:05:20disingenuous.
00:05:22Disingenuous?
00:05:24It means insincere.
00:05:26I know what it means. I'll have you know my love for customers
00:05:28is not only built on honesty, but genuine compassion.
00:05:30Yeah. A weekly meme-filled
00:05:32newsletter always makes me feel loved.
00:05:34Well, it seems to work for my company.
00:05:36We've seen an exponential increase in first-time users
00:05:38this past quarter.
00:05:40What about your long-term users?
00:05:42What do you do to maintain your customers who have supported you for years?
00:05:44You know, you're great at reaching out to customers
00:05:46and inserting yourself in their lives.
00:05:48But what about when they try
00:05:50to contact you?
00:05:52I think any loyal customer
00:05:54will find my company very easy to reach.
00:05:58This is your customer service line.
00:06:00I've been on hold for almost five minutes
00:06:02and I still haven't spoken to a single human being.
00:06:04Is that how you show you care?
00:06:08Ooh!
00:06:12You know, growth doesn't
00:06:14mean anything when you abandon
00:06:16the people who got you there.
00:06:20I think that's a fair point.
00:06:22Very well
00:06:24argued.
00:06:26And exactly the kind of
00:06:28well-researched and confident points that I
00:06:30like to see in the boardroom. Let's give it up for Anna.
00:06:32All right.
00:06:38I think we all learned something today.
00:06:40And I think...
00:06:44You know, I think we can end class early.
00:06:46Yeah, good work.
00:06:48Good work.
00:07:02Anna! Anna! Wait up!
00:07:04What? I want to talk to you.
00:07:06About us.
00:07:08Well, late to ask me to prom, don't you think?
00:07:10What are you even doing here anyway?
00:07:12Aren't you a little too old to be in a college class?
00:07:14I didn't go after high school.
00:07:16I didn't get in anywhere. And I'm sure everyone else
00:07:18is to blame.
00:07:20I don't owe you an explanation.
00:07:22I don't actually owe you anything after what you did.
00:07:24What do you mean?
00:07:26You're the one who iced me out. Iced you out?
00:07:28You changed your number. You blocked me on everything.
00:07:30You know, I can't remember what I ever saw in you.
00:07:32You were sort of always like
00:07:34gliding through life without ever having to work
00:07:36for anything. So rich.
00:07:38Coming from the person who can't even break up with her own
00:07:40boyfriend by herself.
00:07:42You're such an asshole.
00:07:44I ran out of the classroom the moment you saw me.
00:07:46Like a child.
00:07:48I mean, not to mention that customer service shit you pulled.
00:07:50That's why
00:07:52you chased me out here.
00:07:54You're jealous because I beat you in a debate.
00:07:56Anna, I'm the CEO
00:07:58of a Fortune 500 company.
00:08:00I could care less about a classroom exercise.
00:08:02Bullshit!
00:08:04No matter where you go, no matter how high up
00:08:06the corporate ladder you climb, with
00:08:08daddy's help, no doubt,
00:08:10you know I'll always be smarter than you.
00:08:12Just like I was in high school.
00:08:14And you hate it.
00:08:16Admit it, James.
00:08:18It's Professor Chapman, too.
00:08:20Now wouldn't that just turn you on?
00:08:26There you are. I've been looking for you
00:08:28all over campus.
00:08:34This is Astrid.
00:08:38Hi! Is this one of your students?
00:08:40We're not hiring
00:08:42any interns at the moment. Sorry.
00:08:44No. Uh, this is
00:08:46Anna.
00:08:48The one I told you about.
00:08:50Anna. Oh!
00:08:52The Anna. Like, from high school.
00:08:54You know,
00:08:56I was gonna say you looked a little old
00:08:58to be a student, but I didn't want to be rude.
00:09:00Yeah. Well, I'm glad
00:09:02you didn't say that.
00:09:04So you're James' girlfriend?
00:09:06Oh, no.
00:09:08I'm his fiancé.
00:09:10God, I love saying that.
00:09:12Oh.
00:09:14Wow.
00:09:16Congratulations.
00:09:18To both of you. Thank you.
00:09:20We are very excited.
00:09:28So I've gotta run.
00:09:30It was nice meeting you.
00:09:39He's engaged.
00:09:41Engaged?
00:09:43What? Since when?
00:09:45I don't know, but I'm definitely not telling him about Olivia now.
00:09:47Why not? Because he's an asshole.
00:09:49And I don't need Olivia waiting around
00:09:51for him to find the time to make a phone call
00:09:53from whatever stupid corporate retreat he's on.
00:09:55Anna, you're the one
00:09:57juggling two jobs and a college degree,
00:09:59taking the bus everywhere.
00:10:01He needs to take some responsibility.
00:10:03I'm doing fine on my own.
00:10:05Olivia's really happy. You're happy.
00:10:07You barely get enough sleep to function.
00:10:09You're stretching yourself
00:10:11far too thin.
00:10:13It's okay to take a little help from the millionaire.
00:10:15This is not about money.
00:10:17This is about whether or not James can actually
00:10:19commit to something. You know, I can't even imagine
00:10:21James getting through one round of Candyland
00:10:23with Olivia. It's not worth
00:10:25the trouble. I can't risk her
00:10:27getting really close to him and getting her hopes up
00:10:29just for him to
00:10:31take off when times get tough.
00:10:33Anna,
00:10:35are we still talking about Olivia?
00:10:37Or are we talking about you?
00:10:45She was cute.
00:10:47Who?
00:10:49Anna.
00:10:51Why'd you end things?
00:10:53Anyway.
00:10:55Not important.
00:10:59Come on.
00:11:01It's been forever
00:11:03since I heard some high school gossip.
00:11:05Please?
00:11:07It's stupid.
00:11:11Try me.
00:11:17Okay.
00:11:21So, I went over to her
00:11:23house one day, and her mom
00:11:25answers the door and says
00:11:27that she's breaking up with me
00:11:29because she's in love with someone else.
00:11:33Her mom told you?
00:11:35Yeah.
00:11:37That's brutal. Yeah, that was the worst part.
00:11:39I mean, we told each other everything.
00:11:41Or at least I thought we did.
00:11:43That's so high school.
00:11:47What'd you say to her when you found out?
00:11:49Nothing.
00:11:51This was right before I left for college, so I just
00:11:53blocked her and everything.
00:11:55Started a new chapter.
00:11:59But all that matters
00:12:01is that I moved on
00:12:03and met someone really special.
00:12:05Oh, yeah? Who's that?
00:12:31Hmm.
00:12:33Hmm.
00:12:53Thank you, again,
00:12:55for the extra shifts. You know, the restaurant's
00:12:57really been cutting my hours this month.
00:12:59Anything I can do at the bakery would be a huge help.
00:13:09How was your day?
00:13:11Huge debate about Purple Pig versus Bluey today.
00:13:13I was the moderator.
00:13:15God, sometimes I miss being six.
00:13:17So nice.
00:13:19That's my girl.
00:13:21Alright.
00:13:23What do you want to do today?
00:13:25We could...
00:13:27go to the library.
00:13:29We could race to some ice cream.
00:13:31I'm too tired.
00:13:33You're too tired? For ice cream?
00:13:35Usually you're bouncing off the walls after playgroup.
00:13:41You're feeling a little bit warm.
00:13:43Okay, let's go home, yeah?
00:13:45Let's get ice cream on the couch.
00:13:47Mom,
00:13:49who's that man watching us?
00:13:51Um,
00:13:53you know what?
00:13:55I think it was one of my classmates, okay?
00:13:57Let's not worry about it.
00:13:59Let's go home.
00:14:05Alright, and remember to study
00:14:07for your exam on Wednesday. Good work today.
00:14:09Hey, Leanna,
00:14:11can you hang back for a second?
00:14:13Won't your fiancé
00:14:15be waiting for you?
00:14:17I have an opportunity
00:14:19for you.
00:14:21Is this some kind of joke?
00:14:23It's not a joke.
00:14:25I really don't have time to be made fun of right now.
00:14:27Will you let me talk for a second?
00:14:29So, a friend in New York owes me a favor
00:14:31and said they could hook you up with a job.
00:14:33Just some basic data entry stuff,
00:14:35and you could even do it remotely.
00:14:37Oh, wow, that's very sweet.
00:14:39Where is this coming from?
00:14:41I know your secret.
00:14:43How do you know?
00:14:45Wait, what do you...
00:14:47Professor told me.
00:14:49Professor Linden told you about the bakery?
00:14:51And the nannying, the restaurant?
00:14:53Nannying?
00:14:55The girl you're taking care of?
00:14:57Wait, were you following me yesterday?
00:14:59What? No, I just...
00:15:01Oh, my God!
00:15:03I just don't think you've been very open with me.
00:15:05Being open with you? What do you mean?
00:15:07You want me to give you all this information so you pity me?
00:15:09I'm not trying to pity you. I just want to help.
00:15:11I don't want your help.
00:15:13Why do you have to be so stubborn?
00:15:15Do you consider that maybe I'm not trying to screw you over?
00:15:17That maybe, just maybe, I'm a good person?
00:15:19Oh, you're a good person?
00:15:21No, no, no, you just feel guilty
00:15:23about the way that you left me.
00:15:25Oh, my God, Anna, which is it?
00:15:27That I abandoned you when you needed help,
00:15:29or that you never want any help from me for the rest of your life?
00:15:31Because you can't have both.
00:15:33I never want to see you again.
00:15:37James?
00:15:39Shit, I don't know what to do. I don't have a call.
00:15:41What's going on? What?
00:15:43I need help.
00:15:45Okay, I'll take you.
00:15:49Anna, wait up.
00:15:51What is going on?
00:15:53I will tell you later.
00:15:55You don't think I deserve any kind of explanation?
00:15:57James, you are the last thing on my mind right now.
00:15:59Is it your mom?
00:16:01Will you just shut up for two seconds?
00:16:03Hi, I'm Anna Johnson. I'm here for Olivia Johnson.
00:16:05What room is she in?
00:16:07Sure, let me take a look. 512.
00:16:09Okay, thank you.
00:16:11She's my daughter.
00:16:21What happened? Tell me everything.
00:16:23A kid pushed her on the playground, not even that hard.
00:16:25And it left this huge bruise.
00:16:27Then I felt her forehead and she was burning up.
00:16:29Oh, God.
00:16:31Why didn't I check my phone?
00:16:33I had my phone with me. I don't know why I didn't check it.
00:16:35Hey, this isn't your fault.
00:16:37None of this is your fault.
00:16:39All that matters is you're here now.
00:16:41Mom?
00:16:43Hi, honey.
00:16:45It's okay, all right? I'm here now.
00:16:47Everything's gonna be fine. The doctor's gonna get you all better.
00:16:49Mom, who's that?
00:16:51Oh, hi, I'm James.
00:16:53I'm a friend of your mom's.
00:16:55So then why didn't you just come and say hi yesterday?
00:16:57Why were you hiding behind that tree?
00:17:01Olivia?
00:17:03Hi, I'm Dr. Sherman. I'll be helping you feel better today.
00:17:05So we got some fever and fainting.
00:17:07There were also some chest pains on the way over here.
00:17:09Mom, am I gonna die?
00:17:11No, honey, no.
00:17:13You're not gonna die.
00:17:15That is why we're here, okay?
00:17:17We've already got her on some acetaminophen
00:17:19just to bring the fever down.
00:17:21But I'd like to do more tests.
00:17:23I'll need her full medical history
00:17:25and the history of both parents.
00:17:27Oh, no, I'm not the father.
00:17:29Oh, my apologies.
00:17:31Do you have the father's full medical history?
00:17:33Uh, yes.
00:17:35Yes.
00:17:37I can contact the father, um,
00:17:39later today.
00:17:41Perfect. I'll be back to check on Olivia in a bit.
00:17:43Okay.
00:17:45Anna?
00:17:47Can I talk to you in the hallway for a second?
00:17:49Not now, Becca.
00:17:51Yes, now.
00:17:53Or would you prefer we have this discussion in front of everyone?
00:17:55Let's go inside.
00:18:01So, are you, like,
00:18:03obsessed with my mom, or what?
00:18:05What was that?
00:18:07I don't know. I panicked.
00:18:09I'm gonna figure out his medical history somehow.
00:18:11Anna, this is your daughter.
00:18:13We don't have time to wait for you to figure out how you feel about James.
00:18:15Either you tell him
00:18:17the truth right now,
00:18:19or I will.
00:18:23You're right.
00:18:25I have to do this.
00:18:27Shit!
00:18:29It's gonna ruin everything.
00:18:31You're going to make things right.
00:18:35Favorite pizza topic?
00:18:37Uh, pepperoni.
00:18:39A classic.
00:18:41Favorite dog breed?
00:18:43Golden Retriever.
00:18:45We're really not going for creativity, are we?
00:18:49Hey, Olivia, how old are you?
00:18:51I'm, um, James.
00:18:53Can I speak with you outside for a second?
00:18:55Is everything okay?
00:18:57Um...
00:18:59Do you want to go get some lunch first?
00:19:01Anna, please.
00:19:03Tell me.
00:19:05James.
00:19:07You're the father.
00:19:13Yeah, I know.
00:19:15I found out two weeks after you and I broke up,
00:19:17but because of the way we ended things,
00:19:19I just decided to raise Olivia on my own.
00:19:21What about your parents?
00:19:23Oh, they kicked me out of the house.
00:19:25You know, the Bible hates teenage pregnancies.
00:19:27No, it's okay. It was fine.
00:19:29My mom's best friend, well, now ex-best friend,
00:19:31Becca, she took me in, and she made me go back for college.
00:19:33And I've just been juggling all this ever since.
00:19:37I can't believe
00:19:39that you would be so selfish.
00:19:41Excuse me?
00:19:43I had every right to know about my kid.
00:19:45I don't care whatever post-breakup teenage angst
00:19:47you were dealing with.
00:19:49That is my fucking kid.
00:19:51I do not have the time to deal with your bullshit.
00:19:53I'm gonna go talk to the doctor.
00:19:55Later, hon.
00:19:57Anna, your friend Becca already submitted
00:19:59your family's complete medical history.
00:20:01Oh. Wow. Okay.
00:20:03As for you, James, can you tell me anything about your family?
00:20:05Is there a history of cancer,
00:20:07lung disease, blood disease?
00:20:09My aunt had breast cancer a while back.
00:20:11And my grandma had anemia
00:20:13and thalassemia.
00:20:15Okay, so what can we do next?
00:20:17We're just gonna have to run more tests.
00:20:19Do whatever you need to do. I'll pay for all of it.
00:20:21Money's not an issue.
00:20:23I can cover this.
00:20:25Jesus, Anna, be serious. Do you have any idea how expensive medical procedures can be?
00:20:27Oh, I'm so sorry.
00:20:29Are hospital bills expensive? I really had no idea.
00:20:31Thank you so much for enlightening my dumb little brain.
00:20:33Don't put words in my mouth.
00:20:35Don't talk down to me.
00:20:37What's important here is Olivia's well-being.
00:20:39Both physically and emotionally.
00:20:41This is a scary time.
00:20:43It's important that we all put up a strong, united front.
00:20:45Can you do that?
00:20:53So,
00:20:55how are we gonna tell Olivia?
00:20:57Whoa, wait, whoa. We're not telling Olivia
00:20:59anything until she's older.
00:21:01Why wait? She's probably dreamed of having a father her whole life.
00:21:03She's been doing just fine
00:21:05without one.
00:21:07And you know what the last thing
00:21:09Olivia needs is? Is to get really close to
00:21:11someone who's just gonna flake on her when she needs him the most.
00:21:15How do I know I can trust you?
00:21:19Because I'm here.
00:21:21You told me everything I need to know.
00:21:23And I'm still here.
00:21:25What about your fiancé?
00:21:27She'll understand how important this is to me.
00:21:31Because once we do this,
00:21:33once I tell her,
00:21:37there's no going back.
00:21:41Are you sure
00:21:43that you can handle this?
00:21:45I hung out with her for five minutes.
00:21:47I can already tell she's a great kid.
00:21:49I promise
00:21:51I will do whatever it takes
00:21:53to give her the best life possible.
00:22:03Olivia,
00:22:05I have something to tell you, okay?
00:22:09Uh, James is not just my friend.
00:22:11He is also
00:22:13your father.
00:22:15Oh my god.
00:22:17This is amazing!
00:22:21I have so much to catch you up on.
00:22:23Do you read? Because I have
00:22:25a lot of recommendations.
00:22:27Oh, I can't wait to hear them.
00:22:29You know, I have a feeling you're my dad.
00:22:31When I was asking all those questions,
00:22:33you were scratching your ear,
00:22:35and I do that too. I'm nervous.
00:22:37Do Grandma and Grandpa do that?
00:22:39Do Grandma and Grandpa even want to be called Grandma and Grandpa?
00:22:41Maybe Gigi and Papa.
00:22:43Oh, this is so surreal. She looks so happy.
00:22:45Isn't it nice
00:22:47to stop keeping secrets for once?
00:22:49I guess you're right.
00:22:51James!
00:22:53Astrid, how did you find me?
00:22:55Well,
00:22:57you were an hour late to lunch.
00:22:59I thought to check the location,
00:23:01and it said you were in the hospital.
00:23:03I was worried sick.
00:23:05I'm sorry everything happened so fast.
00:23:07You could have been dead.
00:23:09I'm sorry.
00:23:11I had to take Anna to the hospital.
00:23:13Olivia was okay.
00:23:15Olivia? Who's...
00:23:17Hi.
00:23:19Hello.
00:23:21Wow.
00:23:23Friendly.
00:23:25Guess we found a new babysitter.
00:23:29Well, now that
00:23:31this one's all happy,
00:23:33uh,
00:23:35shouldn't we be going?
00:23:37Um, listen, you can head out whenever,
00:23:39but I need to stick around.
00:23:41Um, James,
00:23:43don't you think you're kind of intruding
00:23:45on family time?
00:23:47Astrid,
00:23:49can we talk outside?
00:23:51A child, James?
00:23:55You have a child?
00:23:57Astrid, I'm sorry. I just found out today.
00:23:59I was going to tell you later tonight.
00:24:01Oh, yeah, I'm sure you would have.
00:24:03It's a lot to process, I know.
00:24:05I mean, I'm still processing it myself.
00:24:07Oh, my God.
00:24:09It's not gonna be easy.
00:24:13But she's a really special kid.
00:24:15Let me guess.
00:24:17You're paying
00:24:19for everything?
00:24:21I offered.
00:24:23Oh, my God, you are so gullible, it's embarrassing.
00:24:25What are you talking about?
00:24:27So the woman who broke up with you
00:24:29in high school
00:24:31all of a sudden needs a ton of money for a sick kid
00:24:33days after she finds out
00:24:35you're a millionaire.
00:24:37Don't you think this is
00:24:39a little convenient?
00:24:41Anna wouldn't do that.
00:24:43How do you know,
00:24:45James? I mean,
00:24:47you knew her in high school.
00:24:49You don't know what kind of person
00:24:51she is now.
00:24:53I can't believe you would say this.
00:24:55My child is sick.
00:24:57Your child?
00:24:59Wasn't she with
00:25:01someone else when you two were together?
00:25:03I mean, how do you even know
00:25:05she's yours?
00:25:17Dad, do you want to join us?
00:25:19We just started a new game.
00:25:21Not right now, Olivia. Anna, can I see you outside?
00:25:27Well,
00:25:29she likes you.
00:25:31Anna, I... Oh, really?
00:25:33Well, actually, what she said is she thinks you're smart,
00:25:35which for her is the highest praise you could receive.
00:25:37Well, I'm honored, but, um...
00:25:39But what? Running away from us already?
00:25:45James?
00:25:47I think...
00:25:49we need to take a paternity test.
00:25:51Are you kidding me?
00:25:53I just think we need to make sure, especially if medical histories
00:25:55are going to be affected. Oh, my God! Oh, my God!
00:25:57I knew you were going to do this! Of course you're doing this!
00:25:59I just think logically... Logically?
00:26:01You would not have waited until after you told my...
00:26:03our kid before you started
00:26:05pulling this shit. I'm not pulling anything.
00:26:07I just think it's all a little... A little what?
00:26:09No, no, a little what? Suspicious?
00:26:11Do you think I'm lying to you for some free blood tests?
00:26:13Who else would it fucking be? I don't know how many
00:26:15losers from our hometown you used to spend your little nights
00:26:17with, Anna, but maybe none of them run a corporation.
00:26:19You're disgusting.
00:26:21You know, the only reason
00:26:23I told you any of this was for the well-being
00:26:25of my daughter?
00:26:27I do not want your money. I will take care
00:26:29of this like I take care of everything else.
00:26:31Go take your stupid test. I don't care.
00:26:33What the fuck?
00:27:03Doctor Sherman?
00:27:09I'm the father, aren't I?
00:27:13Anna. Jesus, James!
00:27:15What are you doing here? I went to the hospital, but they said...
00:27:17Yeah, they cleared us to go home, so we went home.
00:27:21I was...
00:27:23such an asshole.
00:27:25So you got the results back, huh?
00:27:27I'm sorry I even questioned it.
00:27:29With everything you're
00:27:31going through, I'm...
00:27:33I'm sorry.
00:27:37Well, if Olivia's happy,
00:27:39I'm happy.
00:27:41I'm so happy to be her dad.
00:27:45I really am, and
00:27:47I promise
00:27:49I will be as much
00:27:51of a part of her life as you want me to be.
00:27:53I'm sorry.
00:27:59What's wrong?
00:28:01Wait, stop. I don't know.
00:28:03I don't know what's happening.
00:28:05I'm sorry. I think it's just been...
00:28:07A lot.
00:28:09I know.
00:28:19It's getting late, James. I think you should go home.
00:28:23Yeah.
00:28:45God.
00:28:47James won't stop texting me about
00:28:49spending a day with Olivia. This time his
00:28:51excuse was it would give me time to focus
00:28:53on studying. Wouldn't it?
00:28:55Well, of course it would, but I'm not gonna cart
00:28:57Olivia off to her father.
00:28:59Anna...
00:29:01Sweetie, it's been weeks.
00:29:03He's obviously sticking around.
00:29:05Come on.
00:29:07When was the last time you took any time off?
00:29:11I mean, I guess you're right.
00:29:15Okay, fine.
00:29:17Fine. You win.
00:29:22Okay.
00:29:24She loves Candyland.
00:29:26Or should we teach her Monopoly?
00:29:28Is Monopoly too mean of a game?
00:29:30What about...
00:29:32Solitaire?
00:29:36What? I'm kidding.
00:29:38Thank you for being so supportive
00:29:40with all this.
00:29:42I know it's been a lot, but
00:29:44I really think Olivia's gonna love our new home.
00:29:46Yeah, I'm
00:29:48surprised you actually committed to
00:29:50buying this place.
00:29:52It's such a podunk town.
00:29:54Why?
00:29:56Well, sweetie,
00:29:58New York City's our home.
00:30:00This is just
00:30:02a place for you to
00:30:04play dad a couple times a year.
00:30:06This is not a part-time thing,
00:30:08Ashton. I fully intend to be
00:30:10part of Olivia's life.
00:30:14Oh, James,
00:30:16I love you, but you are
00:30:18not dad material.
00:30:20You're gonna get
00:30:22sick of this in, like, a couple hours.
00:30:24She's my daughter, Astrid.
00:30:26I'm not going anywhere.
00:30:30It's really important to me
00:30:32that you try to connect with her.
00:30:34You will try, won't you?
00:30:36Mm-hmm.
00:30:40So it's a magical school
00:30:42where your powers come from what instruments
00:30:44you play. The violinists
00:30:46are the popular kids, but
00:30:48Julie, our protagonist,
00:30:50she's an orphan, by the way. She plays
00:30:52the oboe.
00:30:54Oh.
00:30:56Hey, how about
00:30:58music? Do you like music?
00:31:00I bet you're
00:31:02a swifty
00:31:04favorite era.
00:31:06Favorite what?
00:31:12Okay, so
00:31:14these are for the morning,
00:31:16before any food. Uh, this is once
00:31:18every four hours if she mentions
00:31:20any pain. Got it. And what about these?
00:31:22This is for the evening,
00:31:24okay? Um, with food.
00:31:26Wait, wait, wait.
00:31:28Hang on.
00:31:32No, this is in the morning before
00:31:34food. This is...
00:31:36What is happening? I literally labeled these so that I could
00:31:38organize them, and I think that they're all messed up.
00:31:40It's okay. No, it's actually not okay, because I
00:31:42actually can't mess this up.
00:31:44It's just, like, so much.
00:31:46I know, I know. Hey,
00:31:48take a breather, okay?
00:31:50We can sort these out in a minute.
00:31:52You're doing great.
00:32:06Sorry, it's just been so nonstop.
00:32:08I know.
00:32:10Olivia's so lucky to have you.
00:32:16James?
00:32:18Join me in the
00:32:20bedroom? Now?
00:32:22Yeah.
00:32:24Yeah.
00:32:28We need to talk.
00:32:30Okay.
00:32:38I didn't sign up for this.
00:32:40It's too much.
00:32:42You must see. It's too much.
00:32:44It's an adjustment for all of us.
00:32:46I'm sorry
00:32:48I don't fit into your perfect
00:32:50little fairy tale, but I don't want
00:32:52to end up being some evil
00:32:54stepmother. I mean, you could be a
00:32:56nice stepmother. You're missing
00:32:58the point. I don't want to be any
00:33:00kind of stepmother.
00:33:06We talked about this.
00:33:08We didn't want kids.
00:33:10We've planned a
00:33:12whole life together, and
00:33:14you're just gonna throw all of that
00:33:16out the window for some fling you had
00:33:18when you were a teenager? You know
00:33:20it's more than that, Astrid.
00:33:22And I'm sorry. I know this was completely
00:33:24different than anything we were expecting,
00:33:26but they're my family.
00:33:38You can play
00:33:40perfect family. That's fine.
00:33:44But I'm not gonna be a part of it.
00:33:48You have to choose.
00:33:50Me
00:33:52or them.
00:33:56Don't
00:33:58make me choose, Astrid.
00:34:00Oh my god.
00:34:02I'm sorry.
00:34:06You can't be serious.
00:34:08After
00:34:10everything we built together,
00:34:12you're just gonna choose a stranger?
00:34:14She's my daughter, Astrid.
00:34:16I've already missed so many years of her life.
00:34:18I can't miss any more.
00:34:20You promised
00:34:22me forever. And I
00:34:24still do.
00:34:26So let's make it work. Let's be
00:34:28a family. We can all be together.
00:34:30All of us together?
00:34:32You mean Anna, too?
00:34:34Of course. She's Olivia's mother.
00:34:36So I just have to hang out with your
00:34:38ex for the rest of my life?
00:34:40There is nothing going on between us.
00:34:48I'm not gonna stick around and hope that
00:34:50you're right.
00:34:54Goodbye,
00:34:56James.
00:34:58We're done.
00:35:04I'm sorry she left
00:35:06this, but thank you for taking such good
00:35:08care of it. Absolutely.
00:35:12So how'd it go?
00:35:14We had so much fun. She took all her meds
00:35:16and she kicked my butt at
00:35:18Candyland. Yes, she's very good at that.
00:35:20Yeah.
00:35:22So what test did you have today?
00:35:24Financial accounting. Oh,
00:35:26God. So we'll be
00:35:28pouring the
00:35:30good stuff then, huh?
00:35:34What happened
00:35:36between you and Astrid? I saw her storming
00:35:38out. Honestly,
00:35:40it's over.
00:35:42Oh my God.
00:35:44I'm so
00:35:46sorry. It's okay.
00:35:48You know, for so
00:35:50long, I tried to convince myself I didn't want
00:35:52kids. Because Astrid didn't.
00:35:56It made me wonder how many
00:35:58other things I convinced myself I wanted
00:36:00because of Astrid.
00:36:06You know what?
00:36:08Let's open that wine.
00:36:12I mean, she really is just
00:36:14like you. Very sure of what she
00:36:16wants. Every round of Candyland
00:36:18included a 10-step plan
00:36:20to ensure victory. You know, people
00:36:22think that it's
00:36:24all luck. Really, there's so much
00:36:26more strategy.
00:36:30You know,
00:36:32she's actually a lot like you, too.
00:36:34She is.
00:36:38She's really good at picking up tension
00:36:40in a room and diffusing it.
00:36:42Like, any time that I'm stressed,
00:36:44she finds a way to make me laugh.
00:36:46Funny.
00:36:48I thought I was always the one causing
00:36:50stress.
00:36:56Did you really think that Astrid was
00:36:58the one? Like, how did you know?
00:37:02I don't know.
00:37:04I guess I was
00:37:06just comfortable with her.
00:37:08And then time went on, and
00:37:10I was still comfortable with her.
00:37:12So we
00:37:14just...
00:37:16Always the romantic.
00:37:20What about you? Anybody ever...
00:37:22No, no, no, no.
00:37:24Never.
00:37:26Although,
00:37:28there was a high school boyfriend.
00:37:30Yeah.
00:37:32But he was so good at everything that
00:37:34no one could ever compare.
00:37:36Hey, hey.
00:37:38I tried my best, okay?
00:37:40I read a lot of Cosmo articles.
00:37:42You know, that was probably
00:37:44the first time in your life you ever did your own research.
00:37:46I had some moves.
00:37:48Like, watch this. Ready?
00:37:58Nothing.
00:38:00That was the whole move?
00:38:02Yeah. Okay.
00:38:04It's like I'm looking at your lips.
00:38:06And you're like,
00:38:08Oh my God.
00:38:10Can you kiss me right now?
00:38:12What does this mean?
00:38:14It's mysterious. It's cool.
00:38:16It's very, very cool.
00:38:26So what is it, then?
00:38:32Do you want to kiss me?
00:38:40No.
00:38:46Was that okay?
00:38:58Wait.
00:39:00Was I going too fast?
00:39:02No.
00:39:06You taste the same.
00:39:08Sorry.
00:39:38I'm sorry.
00:40:08The warmth of his touch
00:40:10is more than enough.
00:40:12I think I've fallen in love.
00:40:16Sunrise.
00:40:28Morning.
00:40:30Um, it's actually getting a little late.
00:40:32I think I need to go.
00:40:34Anna.
00:40:36Is everything okay?
00:40:38Yeah.
00:40:40That was fun. Obviously.
00:40:42But don't we owe it to ourselves
00:40:44to be, like, a little responsible here?
00:40:46We were drunk.
00:40:48You just got out of a relationship
00:40:50with a woman that you were about to marry.
00:40:52Anna, you're not some random woman I met at a bar last night.
00:40:54We have a history, too.
00:40:56A history of making each other miserable.
00:40:58You're scared.
00:41:00Is that what this is about?
00:41:02Come on. Can't you just admit
00:41:04that this is too messy for my daughter?
00:41:06Our daughter?
00:41:08Anna, are you seriously not gonna...
00:41:10It's the hospital.
00:41:12Hello?
00:41:14Yes?
00:41:16Okay. We'll be right there.
00:41:18What's wrong?
00:41:20They found something.
00:41:24I was looking through Olivia's blood work
00:41:26and we noticed some irregularities
00:41:28in the hemoglobin levels of her red blood cells.
00:41:30Is it cancer?
00:41:32No, but based on the other tests
00:41:34and James' family history,
00:41:36it is looking like a rare blood disease called thalassemia.
00:41:38Is she...
00:41:40What does that mean?
00:41:42Her body's having trouble creating oxygen in her blood.
00:41:44She'll need a blood transfusion
00:41:46as soon as possible.
00:41:48How soon?
00:41:50Tonight.
00:41:52We're getting it through this together.
00:41:54No, James.
00:41:56James, I...
00:41:58There's so much going on right now.
00:42:02I can't think about us two.
00:42:04I just need to be alone right now.
00:42:08Can you just go?
00:42:28Honey,
00:42:30you look like shit.
00:42:32Wow.
00:42:40You need to sleep too, you know.
00:42:42You can't just stare at her forever.
00:42:44Well,
00:42:46all she's got...
00:42:48She's got me.
00:42:50And her father.
00:42:52No.
00:42:54No, no, no.
00:42:56No, no, no.
00:42:58It's too complicated.
00:43:00Enlighten me.
00:43:02We hooked up.
00:43:04Oh, my gosh.
00:43:06She is sleeping.
00:43:08This is incredible.
00:43:10No, it's not. It's incredibly messy.
00:43:12He just got in a relationship with someone who was real.
00:43:14Becca.
00:43:16She was...
00:43:18It doesn't matter what she was.
00:43:20I'm not gonna be anyone's rebound.
00:43:22I think if we look at the full timeline,
00:43:24she was the real rebound.
00:43:26God, you are enjoying this
00:43:28way too much.
00:43:30I just want you to be happy.
00:43:32It's a drunken one-time thing.
00:43:34We were caught up in a moment.
00:43:36It was a huge mistake.
00:43:38Sounds like a fun mistake.
00:43:40You know, he already abandoned us
00:43:42once before.
00:43:44Who's to say he's not gonna do that again?
00:43:46I need to show you something.
00:43:48Follow me.
00:43:54James?
00:44:04James?
00:44:06James?
00:44:08Hey.
00:44:10What happened? How's Olivia?
00:44:12She's fine. The treatment went really well.
00:44:14She's just resting.
00:44:16Good. Thank God.
00:44:18How long have you been here for?
00:44:20I haven't left.
00:44:22I haven't left.
00:44:24Oh, James.
00:44:26Come on. Okay, look.
00:44:28This whole camp-out grand romantic gesture
00:44:30thing, it's very cute.
00:44:32But just be real with me.
00:44:34This is not what you want.
00:44:36Of course it is.
00:44:38I want you, Anna.
00:44:40It's always been you.
00:44:42No, it hasn't. How could you say that to me
00:44:44after you cheated on me?
00:44:46Whoa. What?
00:44:48Cheated on you? When? Who said that?
00:44:50And you're sure
00:44:52it was him?
00:44:54Yes, sweetie.
00:44:56Right there in the middle of the mall
00:44:58like he didn't even care who saw them
00:45:00together.
00:45:02But I...
00:45:06He loves me.
00:45:10You know I always said there was something wrong
00:45:12with that boy.
00:45:14I'm sorry, honey.
00:45:16I wish I wasn't right about this.
00:45:20Mom, I don't know
00:45:22what to do.
00:45:24I don't want to see him ever again.
00:45:26Don't worry, honey.
00:45:28I'll take care of it.
00:45:44There's someone else
00:45:46from church.
00:45:48Someone actually worth her time.
00:46:02Oh, my God.
00:46:04I cannot believe she lied to me like that.
00:46:06I know she never liked me in the first place,
00:46:08but this is next level.
00:46:10And she went through all of that
00:46:12just to kick me out of the house like
00:46:14a month later.
00:46:16I can't believe she would do that to me.
00:46:18I can't believe I would be so stupid.
00:46:20Hey,
00:46:22trusting your mother as a child is not stupid.
00:46:24But it ruined
00:46:26everything.
00:46:28Maybe it didn't.
00:46:30Oh, no, James. James, come on.
00:46:32I think this is probably a bad idea.
00:46:34Maybe it is, but
00:46:36there's clearly a connection between us.
00:46:38We owe it to ourselves
00:46:40to try again.
00:46:42But what about...
00:46:46Exactly.
00:46:48I mean, what's stopping us?
00:46:50Your fiancé.
00:46:52Ex-fiancé who dumped me partially
00:46:54because of her fear of Olivia,
00:46:56but mostly
00:46:58because of the way I look at you.
00:47:00But what about...
00:47:02The cheating?
00:47:04That didn't happen?
00:47:08You are my professor.
00:47:10For the semester.
00:47:12Well, then,
00:47:16I guess
00:47:18I have no more excuses.
00:47:22Good.
00:47:26But
00:47:28we're gonna have to be
00:47:30really
00:47:32thoughtful
00:47:34about this.
00:47:36Definitely.
00:47:38Yeah, of course.
00:47:40We're gonna take this
00:47:42really
00:47:44slowly.
00:47:46Right?
00:47:48Like
00:47:50a snail's pace.
00:47:54Well, I'll follow your lead.
00:47:56Step
00:47:58by
00:48:00step.
00:48:10Okay.
00:48:34Yes.
00:48:36And
00:48:38go.
00:49:02Oh, my God, James.
00:49:08Are you wearing a...
00:49:10It's your phone.
00:49:14It's Olivia's doctor.
00:49:16I hope I wasn't interrupting anything.
00:49:18No. Nothing.
00:49:20Not at all.
00:49:22Is everything okay?
00:49:24The transfusion was successful,
00:49:26but it's not enough.
00:49:28She'll have to keep getting them
00:49:30unless we treat the root cause of the problem.
00:49:32Anything would be better than having an eight-year-old
00:49:34go back and forth from the hospital again and again.
00:49:36If you want, I can put her on a waiting list
00:49:38for a stem cell transplant,
00:49:40which should eliminate any more future transfusions.
00:49:42That would be incredible. How long is the wait?
00:49:44Another ten months to a year.
00:49:46Jesus, that long?
00:49:48Finding a donor to match takes a lot of time.
00:49:50Our best shot at finding anybody
00:49:52quickly is to receive a donation
00:49:54from a family member.
00:49:58So, this is the kitchen,
00:50:00in case you forgot.
00:50:02I know where the kitchen is, Becca.
00:50:04Just wanted to check,
00:50:06since it seems like you've been at James's
00:50:08every night for the past month.
00:50:10It's been that long?
00:50:12Wow. I don't even know what day of the week it is.
00:50:14Has the hospital called?
00:50:16Did you get the results back?
00:50:18Not yet. James really wants to be the one to do it,
00:50:20but I got tested too, of course.
00:50:24I really hope one of us is a match.
00:50:26I don't know what we're gonna do if we're not.
00:50:28It's gonna work.
00:50:30It's gonna work.
00:50:32And Olivia will be out of the hospital in no time.
00:50:38I don't know how I could do any of this
00:50:40without you.
00:50:44You're gonna make me cry.
00:50:46Let's eat.
00:50:48Come on.
00:50:50A lot of pickles in here.
00:50:54And watermelon?
00:50:56Yeah, I don't know. My diet's been really off lately.
00:50:58I've just been craving a lot of pickles and watermelon.
00:51:00It's kind of weird, right?
00:51:02Sweetie.
00:51:06Could the timing be any worse?
00:51:08You know, maybe there's a chance you're not pregnant.
00:51:10Maybe it's just stress
00:51:12that's making you buy four bags of
00:51:14triple sour gummy worms.
00:51:16Jesus, Anna.
00:51:18Olivia's gonna be really excited.
00:51:20She's always wanted a sibling.
00:51:22And at least this time you won't be raising them by yourself.
00:51:24You'll have James.
00:51:26James is crazy about you.
00:51:28He'll support you no matter what.
00:51:30Are you sure about that?
00:51:32We just now found a sense of normalcy.
00:51:34Not all this new shit's happening.
00:51:36Honestly, I can't take on anything else.
00:51:42It's positive.
00:51:44Well,
00:51:46aren't you two just a recipe for fertility?
00:51:48What?
00:51:54Here we go.
00:51:56I'm peaking.
00:51:58I'm not peaking.
00:52:00You ready?
00:52:02Yes.
00:52:04Oh, James.
00:52:06This is very sweet.
00:52:08It's been three months since you came back into my life.
00:52:10I want to celebrate.
00:52:12Okay.
00:52:14I actually have something I really want to talk to you about, too.
00:52:16What?
00:52:18A little wine for the lady?
00:52:20Oh, no.
00:52:24Okay.
00:52:26Well, I did get some of your favorite sushi.
00:52:28Yeah, I can't have any of that, either.
00:52:30Can't?
00:52:32Okay.
00:52:34I can whip us up a little charcuterie board.
00:52:36James, stop.
00:52:38I'm pregnant.
00:52:50I don't know what to say.
00:52:52Right, of course.
00:52:54Because this was so unplanned, I know.
00:52:56And it's really okay if you don't want to be a part of it at all.
00:52:58It's completely fine.
00:53:00Well...
00:53:02So is that a goodbye forever kiss?
00:53:04Or...
00:53:06I don't know.
00:53:08I'm not going anywhere.
00:53:20A little brother or sister?
00:53:22This is the best day of my life.
00:53:24Just wait till the baby gets here.
00:53:26I'm going to be the best big sister in the world.
00:53:28I promise.
00:53:30I know you will, honey.
00:53:32I'm not going to be one of those bossy big sisters.
00:53:34I'm going to meet my best friends.
00:53:36I'm going to read them all my favorite books.
00:53:38It's going to be perfect.
00:53:40Sorry to interrupt.
00:53:42James, Anna, may I see you in the hall for a moment?
00:53:48We got your results back for the stem cell transplant.
00:53:50Neither of you can donate.
00:53:54Okay, well, we're her parents.
00:53:56So genetically, one of us must be a match.
00:53:58Well, technically, Anna is a match.
00:54:00Then what's the problem?
00:54:02If you're pregnant, it would be dangerous to both you and the baby.
00:54:04I can't recommend it.
00:54:06Okay, well, what are our options?
00:54:08I mean, wait on the wait list for years?
00:54:10Since Anna is a match, our best bet is digitesting on relatives.
00:54:12Do you have any siblings?
00:54:14None.
00:54:16Could you reach out to your parents?
00:54:22No.
00:54:24There's no way that I'm talking to my parents.
00:54:28Look, I know this is hard for you, but...
00:54:30I can't go to the woman who, at 17 years old,
00:54:32kicked me out of my own house
00:54:34and the man who just stood there and watched it all happen.
00:54:36Think about Olivia.
00:54:38I am thinking about Olivia.
00:54:40I'm always thinking about Olivia.
00:54:44Olivia is everything that's good in this world.
00:54:48I don't want my parents anywhere near her.
00:54:50I don't want my parents anywhere near any of my children.
00:54:54Listen,
00:54:56you know I'm not a fan of your parents either.
00:54:58But we can't let our baggage
00:55:00get in the way of our daughter's treatment.
00:55:08I just can't believe that
00:55:10after everything that they've done,
00:55:14I'm gonna have to come crawling back to them
00:55:16and ask them for something.
00:55:18But you won't have to do it alone.
00:55:20I'll be by your side the whole time.
00:55:24Okay?
00:55:28Okay.
00:55:36You ready?
00:55:40No.
00:55:42It's okay.
00:55:44We can wait.
00:55:48What did Becca say when you told her you were coming here?
00:55:50Oh God, I didn't tell her anything.
00:55:52Yeah, if she knew we were coming here,
00:55:54she'd probably spray-paint the word traitor on the front door.
00:55:56Yeah.
00:55:58Maybe we'll take a few steps to the door?
00:56:00Great, yeah.
00:56:02Okay.
00:56:08Hannah.
00:56:10Oh, you meant like right away?
00:56:12Hannah,
00:56:14you're the strongest person I know.
00:56:16If anybody can handle this, it's you.
00:56:18What if they say no?
00:56:20Then when have you ever turned down a debate?
00:56:22Okay, you're right about that.
00:56:24Okay, let's do this.
00:56:26Okay.
00:56:40There's a car in the driveway.
00:56:42Yeah, they must be home.
00:56:46Hello?
00:56:48Hello?
00:56:50Maybe they went for a walk or something?
00:56:54I know you're in there.
00:56:58Maybe we should just go.
00:57:00No, do you know what?
00:57:02I'm so sick of doing everything on her terms.
00:57:04You ruined my life.
00:57:06I hope that you know that.
00:57:10I could have gone to college
00:57:12on time with everybody else.
00:57:14I could have had the support to get a good job
00:57:16and provide for my daughter,
00:57:18but I couldn't. I couldn't do any of that
00:57:20because I couldn't fit into whatever stupid
00:57:22vision you had for me.
00:57:26Actually, no.
00:57:28No, you know what? I did.
00:57:30I did fit into the mold. I did every single AP class.
00:57:32Every single after-school activity
00:57:34and every community service event.
00:57:36I was such a good daughter
00:57:38and I loved you so much.
00:57:44But I guess
00:57:46you didn't know how to love me back.
00:57:53Excuse me.
00:57:55If you don't leave,
00:57:57I'm going to call the police.
00:57:59What? That won't be necessary.
00:58:01This is a misunderstanding. We're very sorry.
00:58:03But the Johnsons live here and my parents live here.
00:58:05Okay, Anna, we clearly have the wrong house.
00:58:07We're very sorry. Come on.
00:58:09I don't own my own house. I'm so sorry.
00:58:11Can you please help us? Are you renting a room from them or something?
00:58:13No.
00:58:15I've lived here for the past six years.
00:58:19Six years?
00:58:21Parents sold the house six years ago?
00:58:23They didn't tell me?
00:58:25Okay.
00:58:29I'm sorry.
00:58:31Honey, can I get you some water or something?
00:58:33That's not necessary. Thank you.
00:58:35We should go. Come on.
00:58:37Anna, let's go.
00:58:39Anna, are you okay?
00:58:41I don't feel good.
00:58:43What? Hey, it's okay.
00:58:45Hey, hey, hey, hey!
00:58:47Hey, hey, hey! Anna! Anna!
00:58:49Are you okay? Hey!
00:58:57I can't believe they would move and not tell me.
00:58:59I can.
00:59:01Why'd you even go over there?
00:59:03I don't know.
00:59:05It was a stupid idea.
00:59:07James and I can't donate stem cells to Olivia.
00:59:09But the doctor said that odds are my parents would be matches.
00:59:15Really?
00:59:17I should have known that going to them would only lead to more drama.
00:59:21I mean, I could never trust them before.
00:59:23I don't know why I thought I could trust them now.
00:59:25Anna.
00:59:27Did you know that my mother lied to James and I?
00:59:31She said that we cheated on each other.
00:59:35What kind of mother would go out of her way to break up a high school relationship
00:59:39because what, it was such an affront to her Bible study group or whatever?
00:59:43I mean...
00:59:45You'd think that
00:59:47a little part of her would want to fight for me.
00:59:51Anna.
00:59:53Your mother acted that way
00:59:55because
00:59:57she's not your mother.
01:00:01What?
01:00:03What do you mean she's not my real mother?
01:00:07Your real mother
01:00:09was a teen mom
01:00:11who couldn't raise you on her own.
01:00:13So your parents
01:00:15offered to adopt you.
01:00:17And you knew about this?
01:00:19For how long?
01:00:21It was a closed adoption, Anna.
01:00:23Legally, I couldn't say anything until you were 18.
01:00:25What about when I wasn't 18?
01:00:29I am so sorry.
01:00:33I was so afraid if I told you the truth
01:00:35after all this time,
01:00:37I'd lose you forever.
01:00:39Becca.
01:00:41What is the truth?
01:00:43Please.
01:00:53I'm your real mother.
01:00:57I was young
01:00:59and irresponsible.
01:01:01Your mother offered to keep you
01:01:03out of the system.
01:01:05My daughter's life
01:01:07was in danger
01:01:09and you didn't tell me this?
01:01:11No, that's why I went to the doctor and told her
01:01:13your real family's medical history.
01:01:15And I didn't say anything
01:01:17when you were looking for a match because
01:01:19I thought you or James would be matches.
01:01:21So if James was a match, you just wouldn't have told me ever?
01:01:27Anna, look.
01:01:29There's no more secrets.
01:01:31I can get tested to save Olivia
01:01:33and everything can finally be normal.
01:01:35Normal?
01:01:37Are you kidding me?
01:01:39We never had a shot at normal, did we?
01:01:41Anna, please.
01:01:43I am so sorry.
01:01:45I need to go to James'
01:01:47right now.
01:01:49Okay? I need to be alone
01:01:51and I need to think about this.
01:02:07Hey.
01:02:09Hey, hey.
01:02:11Hey, what's wrong?
01:02:15Will you promise me something?
01:02:17Anything.
01:02:21No more secrets.
01:02:23If there's
01:02:25anything that you're keeping from me
01:02:27from now on, will you please
01:02:29just tell me?
01:02:31Deal.
01:02:33Well, there is
01:02:35one thing.
01:02:43I love you.
01:02:51I love you, too.
01:03:03I love you, too.
01:03:11Good morning.
01:03:13Do you want some coffee, James?
01:03:15I think I really want some coffee.
01:03:17You're pregnant. You can't drink coffee.
01:03:19Do you want the coffee or not?
01:03:21What is going on?
01:03:23I'm sorry.
01:03:25I'll leave you alone if that's what you want.
01:03:27I'll leave you alone forever after the transplant.
01:03:29My test results
01:03:31came back.
01:03:33I'm a match.
01:03:35Oh, my God.
01:03:37This is amazing.
01:03:43I'm a little surprised to find you here.
01:03:47Yeah, I just wanted to go someplace
01:03:49quiet till after the surgery was over.
01:03:51Good plan.
01:03:53Hey.
01:03:59Hey.
01:04:01Remember when we said we'd tell each other everything?
01:04:05What's going on with you and Becca?
01:04:11She's my real mom.
01:04:13Oh.
01:04:15Um.
01:04:17Yeah.
01:04:19That's a lot. How are you doing?
01:04:21Um.
01:04:23It hurts.
01:04:25You know, when I had Olivia,
01:04:27I felt hopeless, too,
01:04:29but I never
01:04:31would have given her away,
01:04:33especially to people who don't even care.
01:04:35Well, when you had Olivia,
01:04:37you had support.
01:04:39What are you talking about? I was kicked out of my house.
01:04:41And then Becca took you in.
01:04:43No questions asked.
01:04:45I mean, sure,
01:04:47she might have not been able to make the right decision
01:04:49when she was 17,
01:04:51but she stepped up
01:04:53so that you wouldn't have to make the same decision
01:04:55that she did.
01:05:03Hello?
01:05:05Okay.
01:05:07We'll be right there.
01:05:11Olivia's surgery's over.
01:05:13It was a success.
01:05:15Oh my god.
01:05:17I should come to the church more often.
01:05:23Here it is.
01:05:25The extra jello
01:05:27from my favorite nurse.
01:05:29Oh.
01:05:31It's you.
01:05:33How's our girl?
01:05:41Olivia's surgery was a success.
01:05:43She can come home tomorrow.
01:05:45How are you feeling?
01:05:47I know stem cells
01:05:49are supposed to be important,
01:05:51but to tell you the truth,
01:05:53I can't feel much of a difference
01:05:55without them.
01:06:01I love you.
01:06:05I love you, too, kid.
01:06:13I love you, too.
01:06:21I've said it once,
01:06:23and I'll say it again.
01:06:25You are definitely an autumn, my darling.
01:06:27Oh, well, well.
01:06:29Look who's back up and running.
01:06:31Well, it's an honor to be back.
01:06:33Where's your prettier half?
01:06:35It's with a doctor checking in on the baby.
01:06:37Is it going to be a girl or a boy?
01:06:39Well, we don't know yet.
01:06:41I'm surprised.
01:06:43And how will I know how to make the perfect gift?
01:06:45I'm sure whatever you make for the baby
01:06:47will be perfect.
01:06:49Yeah, maybe.
01:06:51Hey, now that I have you both here,
01:06:53I want to talk to you guys.
01:06:55I've been thinking a lot
01:06:57about your mom and us
01:06:59and family.
01:07:01I want to ask for your blessing.
01:07:03Oh, my God.
01:07:05Are you serious?
01:07:07Of course you're serious.
01:07:09That's tacky. Flowers.
01:07:11Roses. You'll need roses.
01:07:13I don't get it.
01:07:15What's the blessing for?
01:07:17Well, when two people
01:07:19have been going out for a while
01:07:21and one of them wants to get married,
01:07:23they ask the other person's parents
01:07:25for their blessing
01:07:27so they can propose marriage.
01:07:29You want to marry Mom?
01:07:31Yes, I do.
01:07:33Well, you definitely have my blessing, without a doubt.
01:07:35And I know Anna loves you with her whole heart.
01:07:37You're going to make each other so happy.
01:07:39That's very sweet, Becca.
01:07:41But there is one more person
01:07:43I need their blessing from.
01:07:45Me?
01:07:47Of course. You're Anna's whole world.
01:07:49If we're going to be a family,
01:07:51I want to make sure it's something that you want, too.
01:07:53Of course I want you guys to be together, Dad.
01:07:55And I have the perfect ring.
01:07:57Oh, I already bought it.
01:07:59Here.
01:08:07It's perfect.
01:08:13James,
01:08:15why did you bring me here?
01:08:17Anna,
01:08:19these last few months have been
01:08:21a whirlwind.
01:08:23But being by your side,
01:08:25being with your family,
01:08:27our family,
01:08:29has made them
01:08:31the best months
01:08:33of my life.
01:08:37What?
01:08:41What's that?
01:08:43Well, I bought you a diamond.
01:08:45But Liv insisted you prefer pink.
01:08:49It's perfect.
01:08:51Anna,
01:08:53will you make me the happiest man alive
01:08:55and marry me?
01:08:57Yes.
01:09:01Come on.
01:09:07Hey, Mom.
01:09:09Did you like the ring?
01:09:11I love it.
01:09:13We're finally going to be a real family.
01:09:15I can't wait.
01:09:17You won't have to.
01:09:19I don't want to waste another moment.
01:09:21Let's get married today.
01:09:23What do you say?
01:09:25I mean, we're already in a chapel.
01:09:27Yes, let's do it.
01:09:29I'll go find a priest.
01:09:31Given
01:09:33the circumstances,
01:09:35I'm assuming
01:09:37you're the types that would like to
01:09:39say your own vows?
01:09:43Anna,
01:09:45it's been a long road
01:09:47to get here.
01:09:49But no matter what the world throws at us,
01:09:51we'll always find a way
01:09:53to come back to each other.
01:09:55I can't wait to be a part of your family.
01:09:57I promise
01:09:59I promise
01:10:01to never leave your side.
01:10:15James,
01:10:17thank you
01:10:19for your honesty
01:10:21and for your love
01:10:23and your support
01:10:25and for helping me find the strength
01:10:27to rest again.
01:10:29Even though I literally fought you every single step of the way.
01:10:37I love you.
01:10:39James,
01:10:41do you take this woman to be your wife?
01:10:43I do.
01:10:45Anna, do you take this man
01:10:47to be your husband?
01:10:49Yes.
01:10:51You may now kiss the bride.
01:10:57Wow.
01:11:09Ah, now.
01:11:11Time to get you out of that sheet.
01:11:13Oh.
01:11:15And onto these sheets.
01:11:17You are such a dork.
01:11:19Yeah, but I'm your dork forever.
01:11:21I love you.
01:11:23I love you, too.
01:11:29God, I never want to go back to that hospital
01:11:31ever again.
01:11:33We've got a baby coming through.
01:11:35Move, move, move. Everybody go.
01:11:37Hey, it's okay. Baby's coming through.
01:11:39Here we go.
