00:00ONLY ONE NURSE REMAINING, SIDNEY WHITE!
00:02Ow!
00:08Jackson, am I dreaming?
00:14Wait for me. I'll come back for you.
00:17If you really love him, then walk away. My son deserves better.
00:21I even left you and you're back with this fucking asshole?!
00:23Hey, watch your mouth!
00:24Goodbye, Jackson.
00:25Wait. You're my dad!
00:28No! Enjoy the chill time, bitch.
00:31Come on!
00:32Why does everyone call me a bastard?
00:34Why don't I have a dad?
00:35It was over a decade ago.
00:37Just let it go, Jackson.
00:41Ow! Fuck! It's shelter against!
00:44SOMEBODY HELP, PLEASE!
00:47SIDNEY, you're still there.
00:54Who's that?
01:00I'm the only one one of these people who've been watching a travel movie!
01:01How does it work?
01:02What's that?
01:05Who's you?
01:06Someone call 911?
01:08911, what's your emergency?
01:09Everybody have to do this right?
01:11Please don't!
01:12Stop!
01:13Stop!
01:14No, no, no!
01:15Any one patient like you?
01:17Let's go, let's go, let's go! Move it, move it, move it!
01:42Help!
01:47Cut! Only one nurse remaining, Sidney White!
02:07Jackson? Am I dreaming? It's been nearly a decade.
02:13Jesus!
02:24Come on! Come on, Jackson! Let's go, let's go!
02:30You got me!
02:32Woo! Come on, let's go!
02:34What?! 2213!
02:39No records!
02:40Here you go. You did amazing.
02:55You're for sure gonna ace that firefighter aptitude fest.
02:58Why are you leaving me for New York?
03:00One summer already older.
03:02Well, I'm not leaving you, Sidney.
03:05Look, I know it's only been one summer, but I'm for sure that you're the love of my life.
03:14I'm glad I stole you away from that loser, Gary.
03:17Yeah, now I only have eyes for you.
03:19Seriously, wait for me. I'll come back for you.
03:25Okay.
03:27I love you, Sidney White.
03:29I love you, T.O. Jackson-Corner.
03:31Okay.
03:38Oh. One more thing!
03:39Ah!
03:43You ass!
03:48I can't be pregnant.
03:50I have to tell Jackson.
03:52Lorraine.
03:53You shameless little tramp.
04:05Are you trying to trap my son with a baby?
04:08No!
04:09No, that's not what that is.
04:10Jackson has a bright future ahead of him and I will not let me ruin it.
04:14Get rid of the baby and disappear, Pess Lifer.
04:17I swear I will destroy everything you have.
04:20But I love him!
04:24We love each other!
04:28If you really love him, then walk away.
04:31My son deserves better.
04:36Alright, this is it.
04:41I'm going to put a ring on your finger before I leave.
04:45If he knew about the baby, he'd stay.
04:47For me.
04:48For us.
04:50Uh, hey.
04:51What're you doing in here?
05:12Wait, what?
05:17Break up, why?
05:29The fuck?
05:30Is this a fucking joke?
05:32I even left you and you're back with this fucking asshole?
05:34Hey, watch your mouth!
05:35Yes, Gary and I are back together.
05:37I was thinking about it and
05:39his family money can give me the life I've always dreamed of.
05:43And I don't want to worry about losing my partner in a fire someday.
05:47But you've always been supportive of my dreams.
05:51Goodbye, Jackson.
06:09That was hilarious. Did you see his face was priceless?
06:13Gary, go home.
06:15We're not getting back together.
06:17What?
06:18Well, first you begged me to come out here and now you pushed me away?
06:21You psycho bitch!
06:27I'm sorry, Jackson.
06:29I'm so sorry.
06:31Captain Jackson, you have proven yourself to be a hero once again.
06:40But reports are saying that you stayed inside the blaze 30 minutes longer than protocol allows.
06:45What was your reason for staying inside?
06:47Well, I was just doing my job.
06:50Well, it's a wonderful time.
06:51Captain Jackson, I just wanted to say on behalf of my father's hospital, thank you for saving our lives.
06:58You are truly a hero.
07:01It's no problem.
07:02You must be tired after all that.
07:04You could use a little rest.
07:05Why don't we go back to my BMP lounge and have a little fun?
07:09Thanks, but no thanks.
07:11I actually have to check on a patient.
07:12Thank you for your time.
07:13No problem.
07:14I'll come with you.
07:18Time to get back to work, Cindy White.
07:20Clock's ticking.
07:21Okay, Vanessa.
07:28Jackson?
07:29Excuse me?
07:30That is Captain Jackson Carter to you.
07:43He's LA's hottest, bravest, most badass firefighter.
07:47And he just saved your worthlessness.
07:49Vanessa, please.
07:50That's not necessary.
07:51Where's his thank you?
07:53You know, he could have died pulling your ass out of that fire.
07:58And if something had happened to him, I would have made you pay for it.
08:03Trust me.
08:04I wasn't in the fire by choice, Vanessa.
08:06Don't talk back to me, Cindy.
08:09I'm your boss.
08:11My dad owns this hospital.
08:13And by the way, I am.
08:15I am so sick of your temper.
08:18You know what?
08:20You're fired.
08:23What?
08:24Come on, Vanessa.
08:25I need this job.
08:26Well, maybe you should have thought about that before you talked back to the boss's daughter.
08:36Come on.
08:37Let's go somewhere more private.
08:39You know, now that I think about it, there is a new opening for a paramedic in my department.
08:44I would be so honored.
08:46Someone just became available.
08:48Cindy, how would you like to join my team?
08:52What?
08:53A paramedic job?
08:55What's the catch, Jackson?
08:56What can you miss us?
09:01Thank you so much, but I can't accept.
09:04Sorry.
09:05I would be so honored.
09:07Follow me!
09:08Follow me!
09:09I'm sorry.
09:10You just ran past me.
09:11That's okay.
09:12Great!
09:14Just what I need.
09:16More numb bodies.
09:17I'm sorry.
09:18Thank you for saving my mom.
09:19Oh.
09:20Just doing my job.
09:21You have a son?
09:22Uh, yeah.
09:23This is Noah.
09:24Hi, my name is Noah.
09:25Nice to meet you.
09:26Hey, nice to meet you.
09:27I'm Jackson.
09:28Wait.
09:29You're my dad!
09:30Noah?
09:31Noah?
09:32Damn, you didn't tell him?
09:33No.
09:34That's not funny.
09:35I'm so sorry.
09:36Um, we have to go get ice cream.
09:37Yeah.
09:38Right?
09:39Let's go.
09:40I love ice cream.
09:41Noah, why did you call Jackson down?
09:43He looks like my dad for my dream.
09:44So after she broke up with me, she had a kid with Gary?
09:45No.
09:46No.
09:47No.
09:48No.
09:49No.
09:50No.
09:51No.

10:20No.
10:21No.
10:22No.
10:23No.
10:24So your love life is a disaster.
10:26Tell me something I don't know.
10:29But!
10:30But, but, but, but, your soulmate's here.
10:33And true love follows.
10:34Is there anything in here about money?
10:37Love's not paying the rent, honey.
10:39Joxon's JaBoid.
10:41That's not gonna happen.
10:43Okay, well argue with the cards, honey. You're fated to take this gig. Marry the love of your life and live happily ever after.
10:51Okay, see, this is why I don't live right here in case my life has never been this neat.
10:57Okay, well good thing you don't have to believe in it for it to be true.
11:01Jackson loves you and I don't need the cards to know that.
11:05Okay, we're done. Conversation.
11:09Run all you want, fate comes for us all.
11:12And I...
11:13Mark my words, honey, you two are not over!
11:26Ahem.
11:28What do you want, Vanessa?
11:30Just making sure you're not stealing anything.
11:32Strip searcher.
11:34What? Are you kidding?
11:37What is this?
11:38Are we in high school?
11:40What?
11:41The stripper top, she might be hiding medicine under us.
11:44Vanessa!
11:45What is this?
11:48Let's go.
11:49No.
11:50No, wait!
11:51No!
11:52Enjoy the chill time, bitch.
11:53Come on!
11:55Fuck!
11:56Vanessa!
11:57Vanessa!
12:02Thanks for implementing the new safety measures, Captain Carter.
12:05For the last time.
12:06Call me Jackson.
12:07Just doing my job.
12:08You're too modest, Jackson.
12:12Help!
12:13Somebody help, please!
12:16Sandy?
12:18Hello?
12:19Sandy!
12:20Jackson!
12:21Hey!
12:22Can you help me?
12:23I said that!
12:25Okay!
12:31Oh my god!
12:32Wait!
12:33Turn around!
12:34Okay!
12:35Jackson!
12:36I'm not looking!
12:37Wait!
12:38The door!
12:39I'm not looking!
12:40Oh shit!
12:45Wait!
12:46The door!
12:47I'm not looking!
12:48Oh shit!
12:49Great!
12:50Now we're both stuck in here.
12:52Damn!
12:59Is he sexier than I remember?
13:03You know it's rude to stare.
13:04Jerk.
13:08So!
13:09When do you have a kid?
13:10When did you come back?
13:11Captain Jackson Carter?
13:14Why are you here?
13:15What do you want from me?
13:16Well I always said I'd come back.
13:19That was years ago.
13:20You were kids.
13:21Does it make it not true?
13:26What about you?
13:28No ring.
13:29No Gary inside.
13:30I guess that happily ever after didn't work out.
13:31Hey!
13:32You just got fired.
13:33Just take my job.
13:34Okay?
13:35It's a good offer.
13:36No!
13:37I don't need your offer.
13:38I don't need you to rescue me.
13:39Again.
13:40What are you so afraid of?
13:41Think about your son.
13:43He's got a point.
13:45I do need a job.
13:46And money.
13:50Fine.
13:51I'll take your offer.
13:52And I'll be the best paramedic there is on the team.
13:55It will be your ass getting saved by mine.
13:57I saw her sneak into storage.
13:59She's up to something.
14:04I saw her sneak into the storage room.
14:06She's up to something.
14:07Probably stealing meds or case files or worse.
14:10I'm starting to think she's the one who started the fire.
14:14You're finished, thief.
14:18What?
14:19What is it?
14:22Jackson.
14:25But I only locked her in here.
14:26Oh!
14:27Thanks for the confession.
14:28You bitch!
14:29Enough!
14:30Stop embarrassing yourself, Vanessa.
14:33I am so sorry for my daughter's behavior.
14:35Miss White.
14:36Mr. Carter.
14:37You're apologizing to her?
14:38Shut up!
14:39Stop.
14:46Well.
14:50For saving me.
14:51Again.
14:52Well, I wouldn't call getting us both trapped in that room and let you go rescue.
14:56But I'll take it.
14:58Excited to see you at work?
15:06Hello?
15:07Hello, Miss White.
15:08It's Principal Cohen.
15:09Your son got into a fight.
15:10You need to come.
15:11Now.
15:12What?
15:16Noah!
15:17Are you hurt?
15:18Let me see.
15:19Is he hurt?
15:20He's the one who attacked my son!
15:22Oh.
15:23Oh.
15:24I'm sorry.
15:25If...
15:26If you're signing as a doctor, I can...
15:27Can you cover it?
15:28I don't need your money.
15:29I have money.
15:30What I want is this animal, what you call a son, expelled.
15:37What?
15:39You're not gonna do that, right?
15:41Well, per school policy, serious violence does warrant expulsion.
15:45But he started it!
15:46He called me a bastard.
15:48He said...
15:49He called my mom...
15:50A...
15:51A slut.
15:53My mom says to kids like you don't know your dads because your moms are total sluts.
15:58SHUT UP!
15:59HEY!
16:00DON'T!
16:01YOU DON'T YOU LARID!
16:05SHUT UP!
16:06HEY!
16:07DON'T!
16:08YOU DON'T YOU LARID!
16:13Jackson!
16:14You okay, kidda?
16:15Get go of me!
16:16How dare you!
16:17Mr. Carter!
16:18Hero of the city!
16:19You know the White family?
16:22I do.
16:23President Collins, I didn't know you allowed such bad decorum.
16:28Excuse me, you little son of a-
16:30Enough!
16:32Mr. Carter, I apologize for this incident, and you, you, you apologize to Noah.
16:39No way!
16:40This bastard attacked my son!
16:42This man has saved our school and countless others, and it's a price we could never hope
16:46to repay.
16:49Actually, there is a way to pay it back.
16:51Really?
16:52Well, just tell me how.
16:55Expel that boy.
17:02Expel that boy.
17:04Alright?
17:05Wait, wait, wait, wait!
17:06No.
17:07We don't want to expel him.
17:08We don't?
17:09We don't?
17:10We don't?
17:11No, we don't.
17:12No.
17:13Both boys were in the wrong.
17:14NOAH WAS HIST!
17:15You said extremely rude things to Noah and I, and you need to apologize.
17:20And Noah?
17:21You can't hit someone no matter what they say.
17:23Okay?
17:24You need to say sorry.
17:25My son will not be apologizing, Bart.
17:27I just saved your son from expulsion.
17:32Son?
17:33Say you're sorry.
17:34What?
17:37Sorry.
17:38What was that?
17:39I'm sorry.
17:40Good.
17:41Noah?
17:42I'm sorry, I guess.
17:45I think you owe Miss White an apology, too.
17:48I am sorry, Miss White.
17:49See?
17:50Your mom's a smart cookie.
17:51I shouldn't have tried to expel that boy the same way you shouldn't have tried to fight
18:06him.
18:07Next time, just come to us or the principal.
18:09Okay?
18:10Okay.
18:11Okay.
18:12Nice.
18:13Why does Captain Carter know the Whites?
18:18Is...
18:19Is he Noah's dad?
18:21How does Captain Carter know the White family unless...
18:26Does he know his dad?
18:28Yes.
18:29Here you go.
18:30Okay.
18:31Uh, Principal Con, this isn't what it looks like.
18:33Oh, no, no.
18:34Do not worry, Miss White.
18:35Mum's the worst.
18:36You won't get a peep out of me.
18:38But there's nothing to...
18:39Oh, no.
18:40Do not fret.
18:41We're going to take very special care of Noah.
18:44Both for you and for...
18:47Just for you.
18:50So, what were you and Principal Collins whispering about?
18:55Nothing.
18:57Really?
18:58It seemed like something.
19:00No, nothing.
19:01Is it for you to know about?
19:03Ah, excellent qualifier.
19:06Hey, you want a race?
19:07Yes.
19:08Yeah?
19:09Alright, go.
19:10Come on.
19:11I'm beating you.
19:12Come on.
19:13Hurry up.
19:14Maybe I should tell him he's so bothered.
19:16He's so good with him.
19:20Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go.
19:23Hi.
19:24Hey.
19:25Can we take a selfie?
19:26I love your buyer safety TikTok videos.
19:27And I adore your calendars.
19:29No, those are bad.
19:30Yeah, that's bad.
19:31That's bad.
19:32That's bad.
19:33Nice.
19:34Jackson, can I have your phone number?
19:37If I'm ever feeling lightheaded in the bath, can I call you for a personal rescue?
19:42Ah, she's bad.
19:43Hey!
19:44Before you play with your little fan club, can you make sure my kid's okay?
19:48Who's just right here?
19:50Daddy almost just ran in the middle of the street.
19:52Nope.
19:53I can't tell him he's a father.
19:54I can't flip Noah's world upside down like that.
19:56Here.
20:01Hey!
20:02You never answered my question!
20:03Oh, in case of emergency, just call 911.
20:06Okay.
20:07Cindy, hold on.
20:08Wait up.
20:09Sorry about that.
20:10That never happens.
20:11What now, superstar hero?
20:13Well, you know, with your new job, it actually comes with an accompanying house.
20:19Okay.
20:20No thanks.
20:21It's free.
20:23Well, then I guess we can move in.
20:28Great!
20:29Awesome!
20:30Okay.
20:31Where are you at now?
20:32I can help you move.
20:33That's not necessary.
20:3447 Pie Lane, apartment floor B!
20:35Boom!
20:36See?
20:37That's why you're the man of the house.
20:39You little conspirator.
20:53Whoa!
20:54My new room is so huge!
20:56Can I go unpack my toys and go play?
20:58Absolutely.
20:59You got it?
21:01Well, now that we're all alone, it's time we get sweaty.
21:16Excuse me?
21:17Unpack him, Cindy.
21:18Mind out of the gallery.
21:19That was definitely on purpose.
21:20Stop it.
21:21Over here.
21:22Let me.
21:23I got it!
21:24Stop!
21:25Stop!
21:26Stop!
21:27Stop!
21:28I got it!
21:29Let me.
21:36I got it.
21:38Stop! Stop! Stop!
21:40I got it.
21:47What?
21:49Come here.
21:50Is she finally giving me a shot?
21:59Ow!
22:05What was that for?
22:08I was trying to kiss you.
22:10What? Why?
22:12You said come here.
22:13There's something on your face.
22:16Sorry, I'm not swooning over you like all the other moms.
22:21Okay.
22:23Well, I guess I'll get going.
22:26But be sure to say hi to your neighbor.
22:28Marity's a great, handsome, charming, athletic, fun, smart, intelligent guy.
22:36What?
22:43Wait, you're my neighbor?
22:47Guess that.
22:49Huh.
22:51How convenient.
22:56Why the long face, Jackson?
23:07The one that got away is now in reaching distance.
23:10Yeah, except she's got a kid.
23:13Gary.
23:14The trust fund kid she left before?
23:16Yeah.
23:18Except she's broke.
23:20Yeah, right.
23:21He's loaded.
23:22I know, it doesn't make any sense.
23:24Whatever.
23:25I don't even care.
23:26You know what?
23:27I'm over her, actually.
23:28I'm Jackson Carty.
23:29All right?
23:30Town hero.
23:31I can get whoever I want.
23:32Yeah.
23:33Right.
23:34You're telling yourself that.
23:37Hello, boy.
23:38Party is wrecked.
23:40Vanessa, what are you doing here?
23:42You're acting all mopey, so I thought some company would do you some good.
23:46Okay.
23:47I don't know.
23:48I don't know.
23:49I don't know.
23:50I don't know.
23:51I don't know.
23:52Because I'm sure that I'm much more fun than whoever she is anyways.
23:55Mm-hmm.
23:56Let's get this party started.
24:05Cindy!
24:06Cindy!
24:07Okay.
24:08Okay.
24:09Cindy!
24:10Hi!
24:11Would you like to come in?
24:13Um, I just wanted to say thank you.
24:16And now you have.
24:17Bye!
24:18Oh!
24:19Would you like to come in?
24:21That's really sweet of you.
24:22We'd love to have you.
24:24But play a game.
24:26It'll be fun.
24:35See?
24:36It's simple.
24:37Even Cindy's brat could do it.
24:39Get up.
24:40Let's play.
24:43Hey, do you actually mind switching with Cindy?
25:00Oh!
25:01What the fuck?
25:03Oops!
25:04Guess I've had a little too much fun.
25:05Vanessa, what's your props?
25:06Don't yell at me, Jackson!
25:08I was having a little fun.
25:09Is it too much for Cindy?
25:11I'm so sorry.
25:12Here.
25:15Sit.
25:16Nice.
25:20What are you two looking at?
25:26Hey.
25:27Don't worry.
25:28I'm leaving.
25:29I just don't want Noah to see me like this.
25:30No, no.
25:31I'm sorry.
25:32I don't know what that was.
25:33Are you okay?
25:34What do you think?
25:38Sorry.
25:39Sorry.
25:40For that.
25:41And for crashing your little party.
25:43Looked like you and your fangirls were having fun without me.
25:47Hold on.
25:48Do I sense a hint of jealousy?
25:51Do you like me?
25:55Don't flatter yourself.
25:56I'd never like an arrogant ass like you.
25:58Oh.
25:59So you'd like a rich prick like Gary.
26:01Gary!
26:02Go home.
26:03We're not getting back together.
26:04You psycho bitch!
26:08What are you talking about?
26:09Oh stop, Cindy.
26:10Don't play dumb.
26:11Right?
26:12You dumped me for him eight years ago and he's Noah's dad, right?
26:19You have no idea what you're talking about.
26:21Okay then tell me.
26:22Cindy!
26:23Please just tell me!
26:25Well get rid of the baby and disappear from his life or I swear I will destroy everything
26:33you have.
26:34It's better he thinks Noah is Gary's kid than the truth.
26:37It was over a decade ago.
26:39Just let it go, Jackson.
26:41Maybe you want to forget about it because you don't want to come to terms that you traded
26:51love, real love, for money.
26:54You know, we could have had something together.
26:57We could have a future together.
26:58Jackson, please!
27:01You know what?
27:02Fine.
27:03Here.
27:04I want you to catch a cold.
27:11Is that...
27:15Yeah, the ring.
27:18I've had it since the beginning.
27:21Maybe this is stupid but...
27:24It's like my good luck charm.
27:26Every time I have it with me I...
27:28I can always make it through.
27:31Jackson!
27:32Stop!
27:34Okay?
27:35Thank you for saving me.
27:38For the job, for the house, the rescue, but...
27:41Let's just leave this.
27:42Us.
27:43In the past.
27:44We're colleagues now.
27:45It's best that we keep it professional.
28:12Wow.
28:14Look.
28:15It's our new paramedic.
28:18Can I help you guys?
28:19Yeah.
28:20I actually hurt myself on the last job.
28:21I was wondering if you could take a look at it.
28:24Oh.
28:25You pulled your groin?
28:27Every night before bed.
28:28We were actually hoping that you might help us out with that.
28:31Yeah.
28:32Or is that just exclusively for Captain Carter?
28:35Do you guys have any real injury?
28:37Yeah, yeah, yeah.
28:38Sorry.
28:40You broke my heart?
28:42Wait, wait.
28:43You broke my heart, too.
28:45Alright.
28:46Leave my station before I give you something to cry about.
28:48Ooh.
28:50Look.
28:51I don't think you know who you're dealing with, little girl.
28:53But I do.
28:54Jackson!
28:55We're just looking for you right now.
28:56We couldn't find you, so we came over here.
28:58Yo, we were just joking.
29:00We were just hazing the new guy.
29:01Okay?
29:02It was all in good fun.
29:03What do you think, Cindy?
29:04Is it all in good fun?
29:06Oh?
29:07You heard her.
29:08Hey, hey, hey, hey.
29:09Please, please, please, please.
29:10Look, look.
29:11We're sorry you are.
29:12I'm sorry.
29:13I'm sorry.
29:14I'm sorry.
29:15I'm sorry.
29:16I'm sorry.
29:17I'm sorry.
29:18I'm sorry.
29:19I'm sorry.
29:20I'm sorry.
29:21I'm sorry.
29:22I'm sorry.
29:23We're sorry, boss.
29:24Wait.
29:25We're sorry, Sydney.
29:28Let go.
29:32Hey, you okay?
29:33I'm sorry about that.
29:35Yeah, I'm fine.
29:36Thanks to you.
29:38Just doing my job.
29:39Well, your men make it impossible for me to do mine, so I'm gonna quit.
29:44What?
29:47What?
29:48No, no, no, you can't quit.
29:49You just started.
29:50If I wanted to be mocked every day, then I would just beg Vanessa for my drawback.
29:54This will never happen again.
29:55It's a one-time occurrence.
29:56I promise.
29:57If it ever happens again...
30:03That was a pretty gnarly punch.
30:05Oh, I see.
30:07And some pretty gnarly swelling.
30:10There's nothing.
30:11Yeah.
30:12Whatever.
30:16Look at you saving me for once.
30:19Just doing my job.
30:23You know, you're different now.
30:25When we were younger, you're stronger and tougher.
30:30Well, being a single mother will do that to anyone.
30:34You should try it.
30:36What?
30:37You've been alone this whole time?
30:43Just make sure that your hand stays dry.
30:45For about three hours.
30:46I gotta go get organized.
30:47I guess I'm safe.
30:56So Gary just abandoned her?
30:59I need to know more.
31:00If Cindy won't tell me, I'll go to Gary.
31:05I can't believe the dweeb I used to know has become the hometown hero.
31:11Man, it's been too long.
31:13How you been?
31:14What brings you in today?
31:16You have no idea what you're talking about.
31:20Just got some questions.
31:22About Cindy.
31:24That broad?
31:25Oh, she's got issues, man.
31:27Yeah, she begged me to come back to her.
31:30And then, after she dumped you, she told me that she didn't even want to be with me.
31:36What about Noah?
31:37Who the fuck is Noah?
31:39Come on, man.
31:40It's been years.
31:41Let's talk about something that matters.
31:42Forget that psycho bitch.
31:43Like, I got something real for you.
31:45Oh, fuck!
31:46It's soldier again!
31:51You're loco, man.
31:53You two deserve each other.
31:55If Gary's not the father, then who is?
31:58What the hell's going on, Cindy?
32:06Mom, this is disgusting.
32:08Noah!
32:09Hey, Cindy.
32:10I need to-
32:11Save us!
32:13What's up, little man?
32:14Mom can't cook to save her life.
32:16Excuse me!
32:17Yeah, he's not lying.
32:19Fine.
32:21Last time I'd do anything nice for you, people.
32:23Okay, tell me.
32:24How do you like your burger cooked?
32:26Medium rare.
32:28No way!
32:29Me too!
32:30You know what that makes us?
32:31What?
32:32Face buds.
32:34Oh my gosh.
32:35How do you guys share with all those similarities?
32:37You two are not related.
32:45You all right?
32:46Mm-hmm.
32:47Yeah.
32:48Wrong pipe.
32:50Listen, can you, um, watch Noah for a second?
32:52While we-
32:53We-
32:54Clean up the plates.
32:55There's only two plates, so...
32:56You know that?
32:57You can't clean up the plates.
32:59Okay?
33:00I'll help you clean the plates.
33:04I, uh...
33:05Actually, hey, I'm gonna go talk to your mom real quick, but you stay here.
33:08Okay?
33:09Okay.
33:10Hold down the fort for me.
33:11All right, I'll be right back.
33:24What are you doing?
33:26It's already as difficult as his.
33:28Jackson isn't stupid.
33:29He's gonna find out eventually that he's not the father, and then what are you gonna do about it?
33:33Hey, what you guys talking about?
33:35What did you hear?
33:37Nothing.
33:39You mind if I talk to Cindy for a second alone?
33:42Yeah, I have to use the bathroom anyway.
33:44Um, you and Noah are getting along great.
33:49Oh, yeah, he's a great kid.
33:51Yeah.
33:52You know, I'd love to help out more, you know, if you'd let me.
33:54Take him to school, pick him up from soccer practice, whatever you need.
34:01Ice cream!
34:03You wanna babysit?
34:05I-
34:06You're a fire captain, right?
34:07That's a little below your pay grade?
34:08No, no, no.
34:09I just wanna be part of your guys' lives.
34:15You know?
34:16And-
34:17Noah?
34:18Where's Noah?
34:19Shit!
34:29He lost a lot of blood.
34:30Is anyone a negative for transfusion?
34:32I am.
34:33But I can't.
34:34I'm his mother.
34:35Anyone else?
34:36No, no, no, no, no.
34:37There has to be someone else.
34:38Cindy, stop.
34:39There's no time.
34:40No, it can't be you.
34:41Why?
34:42Why won't you let me help him?
34:43No!
34:44Okay, I don't need your help.
34:45Leave.
34:56Cindy, I know you're scared.
34:58But the longer you keep this a secret, the more pain it's gonna cause for the both of you.
35:02Just tell him what to do right now.
35:04Right now.
35:05Right now.
35:06Right now.
35:07Goodness!
35:08We've located down our plasma.
35:09I just need your signature, okay?
35:10Right here.
35:11Yeah.
35:17You know, it's just-
35:19Every time I feel like we're finally getting closer, she shuts me out.
35:21I don't get it.
35:22I mean, she's been alone for so long and you guys didn't really end up well last time.
35:26What if she's just scared?
35:27What?
35:28And I'm not?
35:29Well, she's the one that dumped me.
35:30Yeah, I know.
35:31I know.
35:32How about she wouldn't even let me donate blood to Noah?
35:34I mean, luckily we found a plasma donor, but what if we didn't?
35:37Why won't she let me help?
35:38Wait.
35:39They didn't let you donate?
35:41No!
35:42That's crazy, right?
35:43Wait, didn't you say Gary wasn't the father?
35:45Yeah.
35:46And?
35:47Direct relatives can't give blood to other direct relatives, so...
35:51Yo!
35:52What if you're Noah's dad?
35:54You're my dad!
36:00Taste buds.
36:03Who the fuck is Noah?
36:15Amanda's right.
36:16I can't keep hiding this.
36:18Jackson deserves to know and Noah does too.
36:21How's he doing?
36:26Good.
36:28Hey, we need to talk.
36:32I talked to Gary.
36:34What?
36:35You had no right to do that.
36:36You wouldn't tell me anything.
36:37I needed answers.
36:40Cindy?
36:42Is Noah my son?
36:49I...
36:49I mean, that's the only thing I can think of,
36:52why you wouldn't let me donate blood.
36:54I mean, when I first met him,
36:56we had an instant connection.
36:57And every time I've seen him since,
36:59I've realized that he eats like me,
37:02he talks like me,
37:03how he even looks like me.
37:05Why won't you tell me?
37:07Is Noah my son?
37:10Cindy, just tell me,
37:11is Noah my son?
37:12Yes!
37:15Noah is your son.
37:16So if I open up my heart this way,
37:19and to twirl me beyond me...
37:21Why wouldn't you just say that?
37:27How could you hide this from me for years?
37:30What could I have possibly done to you
37:31that was so bad?
37:32Did you know?
37:34When you broke up with me?
37:36Well, get rid of the baby
37:38and disappear from his life.
37:39I swear, I will destroy everything you have.
37:44But I love him!
37:47We love each other!
37:50If you really love him,
37:52then walk away.
37:54My son deserves better.
37:56Jackson, I was so young.
38:02And I was scared.
38:04And you had all these big dreams
38:06that you had to go do.
38:07What, the stupid firefighter program?
38:09You thought I cared more about that
38:10than him, than you?
38:12No!
38:13No!
38:14I knew that you didn't!
38:16That's why I left,
38:17because I knew that you wouldn't!
38:20But Jackson,
38:21you didn't fight me on it.
38:24You never...
38:25You never asked me to stay.
38:27Because you said you didn't love me anymore!
38:29What?
38:30I never stopped loving you!
38:33Jackson,
38:34for every second
38:35of every day
38:37for the last eight years,
38:38I've been waiting for you.
38:41Hoping that you'd call
38:42or you'd text
38:43something, anything!
38:49I dreamt about telling you about Noah.
38:52I wasn't strong enough.
38:54I wish I'd been brave
38:57and I didn't let your mother
38:58which for...
38:59I...
38:59Looks like the cat's
39:16finally out the bag.
39:18It's just...
39:19You're just, uh...
39:20I thought I said no more lies.
39:21Yes.
39:24There's no more.
39:28Hey, you know what?
39:30No, his birthday is tomorrow.
39:33You know what he's always wanted?
39:39That dad?
39:41Bingo.
39:44I know just the right thing.
39:51So, what kind of cake would the birthday wear like?
40:00Honestly, I have no idea.
40:03New to this whole dead thing, huh?
40:04Yeah, just found out 20 minutes ago. He doesn't even know.
40:07Oh, wow. Okay. Well, let's just start with his name then.
40:11Noah. I do know that.
40:13Gotcha.
40:15Thanks.
40:16Noah is Jackson's son?
40:24I am going to mess you up, Cindy White.
40:29Wait, sir!
40:31I need an address!
40:34I'll tell you.
40:36Don't worry, I'm a friend of the family.
40:44Cake for Jackson?
40:45That's me.
40:46Thank you, sir.
40:47No problem.
40:52Are you nervous?
40:54Isn't that obvious?
40:56Don't be. You'll be great.
40:58Don't worry. Once you're out of here, I'm going to throw you the biggest party ever.
41:01Who says we have to wait?
41:04Surprise! Happy birthday!
41:06You remembered!
41:07How could I forget the coolest kid in town's birthday?
41:10There you go.
41:12Can I open it, Mom?
41:13Yes.
41:15I don't know what happened then.
41:16I'm so sorry.
41:17It must be some kind of mistake. Don't worry about that.
41:18Why does everyone call me a bastard? Why don't I have a dad?
41:22No, you do have a dad.
41:23No, you do have a dad.
41:24I do?
41:25I'm your father.
41:26Is that true?
41:27I'm your father.
41:28Is that true?
41:29No, you do have a dad.
41:30I do?
41:32I'm your father.
41:33Do the best that I could have possibly imagined.
41:34But where have you been all my life?
41:35Did you not want to be my dad?
41:36Did you not want to be my dad?
41:37Do the best that I could have possibly imagined?
41:38But where have you been all my life?
41:39Did you not want to be my dad?
41:40Of course I wanted to be your dad.
41:41No, you do have a dad.
41:42I do?
41:43Do the best that I could have possibly imagined.
41:44But where have you been all my life?
41:45Did you not want to be my dad?
41:46Of course I wanted to be your dad.
41:47I was just scared.
41:48Why?
41:49Why?
41:50Why?
41:51Why?
41:52Why?
41:53Why?
41:54Why?
41:55Why?
41:56Why?
41:57Why?
41:58Why?
41:59Why?
42:00Why?
42:01Why?
42:02Why?
42:03Why?
42:04Why?
42:05Why?
42:06Why?
42:07Why?
42:08Why?
42:09Why?
42:10Why?
42:11Why?
42:12Why?
42:13Why?
42:14Why?
42:15You know, every day I put my life out on the line fighting fires, I was just afraid that
42:19maybe one day I wouldn't be able to come home.
42:22But, you know, thanks to your mom, I'm finally brave enough to be here for you.
42:30Can you ever forgive me?
42:31Of course.
42:32Dad.
42:33Yeah?
42:34Are you excited?
42:35Yeah?
42:36Are you excited?
42:37Yeah, definitely.
42:38Oh, cool.
42:39Noah!
42:40You're alive!
42:41Yes, and I have a dad!
42:42Whoa, is that him?

43:40Out of all people, it's Cindy.
43:42I know, but I taught Brad a lesson.
43:44Broke bastard on his birthday cake.

44:42Um...
44:44The call you got earlier.
44:46I kind of...
44:48overheard it.
44:50Thought there was gonna be no secrets, remember?
44:52We may have noticed I'm not wearing my necklace.
45:02Yeah, that seems, um, strange.
45:06It's because I took it to a jeweler and...
45:10La la la la la la.
45:12Not listening, not listening.
45:13You asked!
45:14I...
45:15Sorry, whatever you're saying, I can't hear you.
45:16La la la la la la la la la.
45:20I should have never doubted the tarot.
45:22I'm sorry.
45:23Okay, I've accepted my fate.
45:25Can you please just tell me if you said suppose?
45:27Amanda, please!
45:28Cindy White?
45:29Yes?
45:30Can I help you?

45:37I was actually looking for a gas station if you were...
45:41Cindy, you're still there?
45:42No!
45:43Right there?
45:49Hey!
45:53Jackson!
45:55These guys just kidnapped Cindy and then put it in a van.
45:57What?
45:58I pulled security footage.
45:59Yeah, yeah.
46:02Let's go.
46:08Buckle up.
46:09You got her GDS location?
46:10Hey, what's it?
46:15Stay here!
46:23Not so sassy now, are ya?
46:26Amanda, stop!
46:27Run!
46:28Run!
46:30Don't do something you're gonna regret.
46:32Trust me, I'm not.
46:34Don't do this.
46:35Let's just...
46:36Let's just talk.
46:37About what?
46:39About you marrying this slut?
46:41Or about you crawling back to your family to get her location?
46:44I thought that you were never gonna go back to them, remember?
46:47I know you're hurt, Vanessa.
46:52It's between me and you, okay?
46:53Just leave Cindy out of this.
46:55This is a big misunderstanding, okay?
46:57What do you say?
46:59I say...
47:01Leave Cindy and marry me.
47:09I take that as a no.
47:11God, you really love her, don't you?
47:15That's too bad.
47:17Cause I really didn't want to do this, but...
47:22You're not really leaving me a choice.
47:24Put the lady down.
47:25Let's just talk.
47:27If I can't have you...
47:29She certainly can't.
47:30So that's another...
47:31What?
47:44Yo, Jackson's still in there!
47:45Go, go, go!
47:55Jackson!
47:56Jackson!
48:00Jackson!
48:02Jackson!
48:03Somebody help, please!
48:05Let go of me, you pig!
48:08Jackson, it's mine!
48:10Vanessa Reed, you are under arrest!
48:13Please...
48:15Jackson, please.
48:16Please hold on, don't leave me.
48:21You can't get rid of me, guys.
48:23Jackson!
48:24No!
48:26Please!
48:28Jackson!
48:39Sandy!
48:40Hi, Jackson.
48:41Hi, I'm here.
48:43No, no, no.
48:44Easy, easy.
48:45I don't want to push anything.
48:47Can I get some water?
48:48Yeah.
48:49Please.
48:50Yeah, sure I do.
48:53Here you go.
48:54Don't worry.
48:55Good care of you.
49:01Come here.
49:03You're the best kid a dad could ask for.
49:05I'll go get your medicine.
49:09He's really stepping up.
49:11That's amazing.
49:13This kid that I've missed so much with his life already.
49:18Cindy.
49:19Mom?
49:20That must be your son.
49:21He's so beautiful.
49:22What are you doing here?
49:23How do you know about Cindy's son?
49:24Because I paid her to leave you so she wouldn't trap you with a baby.
49:25I told her I'd ruin her life if she didn't leave you.
49:26Is that what you're doing here now?
49:27To threaten her again?
49:28No.
49:29Is that what...
49:30Is that what...
49:31Mom?
49:32Mom?
49:33Get out.
49:34No.
49:35Mom?
49:36Get out.
49:37No.
49:38Mom?
49:39Get the fuck out of here!
49:40Go!
49:41Jackson.
49:42I'm sorry, son.
49:43I'm so sorry.
49:44Cindy.
49:45What?
49:46Why...
49:47Why did you just tell me?
49:48I thought you said no more lies?
49:52I'm a mother now.
49:54And even though I would never make the choices that you did,
49:58Is that what you're doing here now?
49:59Is that what...
50:00Mom?
50:01Get out.
50:02No.
50:03Mom?
50:04Get the fuck outta here!
50:05Go!
50:06Jackson.
50:07I'm sorry, son.
50:08I'm so sorry.
50:09Cindy.
50:10Why?
50:11Why didn't you just tell me?
50:12I thought you said no more lies.
50:13you did. I can understand them. And I forgive you. You're a strong woman, Cindy, and an
50:24excellent mother. Thank you. I'll give you two soon space. Jackson, I'm so sorry for
50:37everything. When Cindy broke up with you, I saw how heartbroken you were, and I immediately
50:42knew I'd made a terrible mistake. But I knew you'd never stop fighting for her. I truly
50:49want nothing but the best for both of you. Dad, who's the crying lady? It's your grandma.
51:01Why don't you give her a hug? Hi, Grandma. I'm Noah. Hi, Noah. Don't worry. It's okay.
51:12Yes, it is now.
51:14Wow. Where is the uniform? I got it. You got the ring? I got it. All right. Speaking of,
51:37how's Cindy getting here? Only the best is bringing her. Mom, can you please go to Dad's
51:41photo shoot? Please, please, please, please? Fine. You act so nicely. What is going on?
51:57Surprise! What? What is all of this? I want to make up for all the lost time. Give Noah a home
52:11woman. The wedding. The way you're making me feel it's divine. So you're white. It's enough
52:17to let folk marry me. Yes! Yes. A million times, yes. You're everything that I've done.
52:28Wait, the door. I know. I'm trying to do it naturally. Ow. Ow. Just doing my job. Sorry,
52:35one more time. Whatever happens again.
52:40Whatever happens again.
52:47Jeez.
52:48For the rest of the life.
52:49For the rest of the life.
52:51For the rest of the life.
52:53For the rest of the life.
52:55I'm trying to do it naturally.
52:57I'm trying to do it naturally.
52:58I'm trying to do it naturally.
53:00Ow. Ow. Just doing my job.
53:03Sorry, one more time.
53:04Whatever happens again.
53:06For the rest of the life.
53:09For the rest of the life.

53:23You can go again.
