FunTranscript
00:00Oh, Mother, what a pleasant surprise.
00:09Or maybe not.
00:10It's Danny.
00:11I'm so glad you're aware of the situation.
00:13How could I not be?
00:15I just read about Doug McBride's drunk driving accident and my blood ran cold.
00:20The way that he and Danny, two incredibly intelligent, talented people, became so self-destructive because of alcohol.
00:30But at least Danny was able to correct her most recent error in judgment, that absurd wedding to Andre.
00:37Actually, she wasn't.
00:40I ran into Andre last night and he told me that he and Danny decided to stay married.
00:44To stay?
00:46No.
00:48Absolutely not.
00:49We have to put an end to this.
00:52I don't even want to think about what kind of wild behavior they're engaging in as we speak.
00:57Congratulations, Chelsea Bear.
01:01I am so proud of you for launching your business, putting it out into the world, and for how you handled that very difficult situation with Allison with such grace and aplomb.
01:11Call me back when you can, okay?
01:14Kisses.
01:14So, has Chelsea said anything about us getting married?
01:22Not yet.
01:23Though I'm sure she knows, courtesy of the Anita Impersonator's social media post.
01:27Hmm.
01:28So is no news good news?
01:30Unfortunately not.
01:32Chelsea tends to give me the silent treatment when she is peeved about something I've done.
01:37Ah.
01:38I'm sorry about that.
01:40But it'd be nice if Chelsea and Naomi could be happy for us.
01:44What are you doing?
01:46Did someone tell you to stop?
01:48No.
01:49Then continue cuddling, please.
01:52Unless you're bored.
01:53Are you bored?
01:54Absolutely not.
01:56I like snuggling up with you.
01:58Like we're an old married couple.
02:00I can get used to this.
02:02Hmm.
02:04Hmm.
02:10Bill, I searched for all the documents you asked about.
02:40I was able to dig up Danny's marriage certificate, but I'm afraid...
02:43And why does my husband want his ex-wife's marriage certificate?
02:49Counselor.
02:50Since when do you play blackjack in the middle of the afternoon?
02:54Well, I'm the hater play games.
02:56Especially after learning what recently happened to one of your high rollers.
03:01Doug McBride.
03:03Oh, yes.
03:04I heard about his car accident.
03:07Such a shame.
03:09Is it really?
03:12That's not actually the question you want to ask, is it?
03:16Did you have something to do with Doug's car plunging into that ravine?
03:23So, have you and Derek decided on the big day?
03:27Nowhere near.
03:28We're still adjusting to moving in together, which fortunately is going much better than
03:32the last time.
03:33That's good.
03:35So, have there been any changes in his condition?
03:39Not yet.
03:40But he's managing to keep a positive attitude, which is wonderful, considering he must be
03:45so scared that the paralysis could be permanent.
03:48You know?
03:52Dave?
03:54What are you doing here?
03:55I just got done visiting the children's ward with some of my firefighter buddies.
03:59Decided to wheel by.
04:00Oh, I'm glad you did.
04:01How'd it go?
04:02It was good.
04:03We passed out toy fire trucks, told stories, the usual.
04:05Well, I'm sure they loved it.
04:07And you.
04:08Just the kids?
04:09Yeah.
04:10Because you're completely unlovable otherwise.
04:12That's why I'm planning to spend the rest of my life with you.
04:16Good seeing you, Derek.
04:18Shanice, hey.
04:19Hey, if you stick around, I can squeeze in a physical therapy session.
04:23I wouldn't want to inconvenience you.
04:25You won't.
04:26I've got a new routine I'm itching to try out.
04:29Hey, Ashley, I think Mrs. Stone probably needs help with her lunch tray.
04:32I'm on it.
04:36I really don't want to bother you, Shanice.
04:38Cut the crap.
04:39I cannot believe you are still lying to Ashley about not feeling sensation in your legs.
04:43But hopefully by the end of today's session, I'd knock some sense into you.
05:09Nicole, I am sitting here at the country club surrounded by brochures for cemeteries, caskets, flowers.
05:17I don't know where to start.
05:20I keep thinking, what would Doug want?
05:22But I don't know.
05:22We figured we had years before we had to consider funeral.
05:26I know, honey.
05:28I'll come join you and we'll go through them together, okay?
05:31In the meantime, you should probably start with a plot.
05:33I suggest Cedar Hill Cemetery.
05:35It's close, quiet, and lovely.
05:39Start with Cedar Hill.
05:40I can do that.
05:42I'll ask for a plot near some trees.
05:46Doug always liked shade.
05:48My husband deserves the best.
05:50Excuse me, miss.
05:53I'm looking for a supervisor.
05:55I'm the nursing supervisor.
05:56Can I help you?
05:57I just found out that Dr. McBride's office has already been reassigned.
06:02Donnell McBride?
06:03I didn't know you were back home.
06:05Is Deanna back too?
06:06No.
06:07My sister's pretty fragile right now.
06:09She decided it'd be better if she stayed in school for now.
06:12I'm Shanice Johnson, and please accept my condolences for your loss.
06:17Your father was a good man.
06:21Came back to visit his office.
06:23You know, remember him where he was in his element.
06:27After all of his years of service to this hospital,
06:29for them to just turn over his office so suddenly, I mean...
06:32It wasn't suddenly, Donnell.
06:34Your father hasn't worked here for months.
06:37My father never said anything to me about leaving Garland.
06:40And we talked all the time.
06:42Where was he working?
06:44Did he move to a private practice?
06:45Look, I suggest you talk to your mother about this.
06:49Your mom didn't tell me anything about this either.
06:52Were my parents keeping secrets from me?
06:55It's not my place to say.
07:01Thank you for at least telling me a little bit about what was going on.
07:05You've been more honest with me than my own family.
07:06I'm no lawyer, but I think I've just been libeled.
07:14Slander is the term for making a false oral statement.
07:18And I simply ask the question.
07:20Accusing me of involvement in Doug's death.
07:22A few days ago, I told you that Doug came to me for help to take you down.
07:28Next thing I know, he winds up in a fatal car accident.
07:31That's one hell of a coincidence.
07:34Someone call it karma.
07:36Doug flew too close to the sun, and the universe put the brakes on his ambition.
07:41Sorry for the poor choice of words.
07:43Apparently, Doug's brakes couldn't keep him from flying into that ravine.
07:49That's cold, Joey.
07:51Even for you.
07:52Just being honest.
07:54Which is usually the mark of an innocent man.
07:58Doug McBride was a drunk.
08:00Just ask any of the bartenders here.
08:02Or any at any of the local establishments.
08:06And after yet one more night of drinking himself into oblivion,
08:09he had the poor judgment to get behind the wheel of a car.
08:13It's a plausible argument.
08:15Still pretty damn convenient, though.
08:18I wasn't even in town when it happened.
08:20Oh, I have no doubt that you made sure that you were someplace else
08:23with an extensive digital trail and plenty of witnesses to your whereabouts.
08:27Because that's exactly what a smart person would do to give himself an alibi.
08:37Old married couple indeed.
08:39I think our new marriage is very hot.
08:43Speaking of which, aren't you warm in all these clothes?
08:46Let me help you with those.
08:52Danny, it's the afternoon, for goodness sake.
08:55Mother!
08:56I am sorry to interrupt the honeymoon.
08:59Actually, I'm not.
09:01I am thrilled.
09:03Danny, you and I need to talk.
09:05Alone.
09:05Mother, you do not get to say who comes and goes and stays in my home.
09:11And if you're going to come in here without knocking,
09:13I might have to revoke your house key privileges.
09:15Well, go ahead.
09:17You've been revoking all kinds of things lately.
09:19Like your plan to end this farce of a marriage.
09:22Bill didn't tell me why he wanted Danny's marriage certificate.
09:34Just told me to track down every legal document I could find related to the marriage.
09:38He is obsessed with this woman.
09:41I think that's overstating it.
09:43I try to keep him away from her, but you enable him by getting papers with her name on them.
09:48His interest is purely professional, I'm sure.
09:51Yeah, I'm sure.
09:53One of his clients is paying Bill's huge hourly rate to learn about Danny's marriage.
09:59Caroline, something shifted when Chelsea was kidnapped.
10:05I think he might have fallen back in love with Danny.
10:09Bill loves you.
10:12But don't you think it's possible for a man to love two women at the same time?
10:16Sure it is.
10:19But that doesn't mean that's what's going on with Bill.
10:23You really should talk to your husband before jumping to conclusions and driving yourself crazy.
10:31Happy?
10:32Now that you've made my new husband feel unwelcome in my home?
10:36I just want to know why that boy is still your husband.
10:38He is very much a man, and I don't owe you an explanation.
10:42You owe me for being on this earth.
10:44But right now, I'll settle for an explanation.
10:46Or are you refusing to answer me because you'll have to admit that you've made yet another bad decision while drinking?
10:52Why would you even say that?
10:54Doug McBride died because he was driving while intoxicated.
10:58Yes, I know.
10:59And it's very sad, and my heart goes out to Vanessa, but I don't see what that has to do with my marriage to Andre.
11:05You said you were blackout drunk.
11:09Blackout drunk, Danny.
11:11Baby, I think you have a drinking problem.
11:17Anita Dupree just kicked me out of my own wife's house because you went and told her that Danny and I didn't get in an old man.
11:23Was it a secret?
11:25No, but did you have to go and put the worst possible spin on it?
11:28Mother paid me a visit because she's worried about Danny's drinking.
11:32That is when I filled her in that the two of you decided to stay married.
11:35No spin.
11:37But why today?
11:38I mean, sure, we were drunk off our asses at the wedding.
11:42As far as I know, Danny hasn't been drinking since we got back.
11:44Doug's drunk driving accident.
11:47It got Mother thinking about the role that alcohol plays in Danny's life.
11:52Yeah.
11:53And frankly, I think that she has reason to be concerned about the both of you.
11:59Can you honestly tell me that you would have married Danny if you were stone cold sober?
12:04The drinks may have made me uninhibited that night, sure.
12:07But honestly, booze is not what sent me and Danny to Vegas.
12:10Then what was it?
12:11And don't you even say true love because neither one of you has used those words to describe this relationship.
12:18Danny and I had both been dealing with some personal stuff.
12:21And she had another argument with Bill and it ended up...
12:24Because it always comes back to Bill where Danny is concerned.
12:28And I can understand Danny deciding that she needed a younger spouse for payback.
12:34What do you get out of this, Andre?
12:37Marriage to an incredible woman.
12:41I heard Ashley got engaged.
12:45Did you marry Danny on the rebound?
12:50Hey, how'd things go with Shanice?
12:53We haven't had our session yet.
12:55You know, she's probably too busy.
12:56I'm just going to leave.
12:57No, no, no, you can't.
12:58Please, she was so sweet to offer.
13:00And listen, things have been going so well with us.
13:03I feel like we can do anything.
13:05Who knows?
13:05Maybe this is the physical therapy session that'll make a breakthrough.
13:10If anything's possible.
13:11So, I found out about Ashley's engagement right before Danny and I went to Vegas.
13:20And maybe it hurt.
13:25I'm sorry, honey.
13:27Feeling rejected can lead to anyone making a bad decision.
13:31But fortunately, this can still be fixed.
13:33Go back to the original plan of getting an annulment.
13:35Why is your family dead set against our marriage?
13:42If you were willing to accept Danny and me dating, why is our being married such a problem?
13:47Speaking for myself, I tolerated you and Danny having a fling.
13:52Okay.
13:53So, as long as I was her boy toy, that was okay with you?
13:56It was concerning.
13:58But a short-term relationship comes with a lot less problems than a marriage.
14:03Yeah, I can't see that.
14:06Let's start with the age gap, for one.
14:08I'm assuming that someday you're going to want to have kids?
14:10That is not going to happen with Danny.
14:13So, I should break up with her because of kids that I might eventually want someday.
14:18Okay.
14:19Anything else?
14:20The fact that she is still madly in love with Bill?
14:24Don't you want to be more than somebody's second choice?
14:26How is that a healthy dynamic?
14:30Auntie, maybe the dynamic you're really concerned about here is the one between you and Danny.
14:35Andre, you are sadly mistaken if you think you're going to come between me and my sister.
14:40No, no.
14:40I'm talking about your position as the stable, respectable sister.
14:44In contrast to Danny, who's the hot mess.
14:47Because you think that this drunken marriage makes her look stable.
14:51Please.
14:52If she's in a happy marriage and you're going through a painful divorce,
14:55yeah, it flips the script.
14:56That is absurd.
14:59I don't think so.
15:01And as much as I love you, I'm not going to get an annulment just to make you happy.
15:05This is not about my happiness.
15:08Tell me, would you be happy with Danny if you found out Ashley all of a sudden became single?
15:14That is a pointless hypothetical that I won't dignify with an answer.
15:16Mother, you are completely off base thinking that I have a drinking problem.
15:24Andre and I were having fun and doing what millions of people do in Vegas.
15:27Getting so drunk that you could barely remember what you did isn't healthy, baby.
15:34Now, I was all for you finding someone to make you happy, but right now I can't help but wonder if Andre is a bad influence on you.
15:40You couldn't be more wrong.
15:41I actually was drinking more than I should have been a couple months ago.
15:47And it was Andre who called me out and convinced me to cut back.
15:53Frankly, he knew more about what was going on with me than anyone in the family.
15:56Well, why wouldn't you tell us that you were having this kind of trouble?
16:01Because I wasn't.
16:02Not really.
16:04Thanks to Andre.
16:06Baby, I saw those wedding photos.
16:09And he was every bit as drunk as you were.
16:11We didn't drive.
16:12We used a pilot and a rideshare to get to that wedding chapel and back again safely.
16:16And what about all the drinking that led up to this spontaneous trip to Vegas?
16:20I heard you'd been drinking at the club for hours.
16:23Yes.
16:24We had some drinks.
16:26But that's not why we got married.
16:28The truth is, I was under the influence of something far more addictive than liquor.
16:37Bill Hamilton.
16:40You know, Counselor, sometimes an alibi means the guy didn't do it.
16:45Relatively few times in my experience as a criminal defense lawyer.
16:49The timing of my trip just happened to coincide with the accident.
16:53Yeah, yeah, but it's just not like you to let a threat against you go unanswered, Joey.
16:58Oh, I thought about taking action, but then I realized that Doug wasn't really capable of doing me any harm.
17:05I mean, look, the poor guy was so inept, he didn't know that by going to you, you would just turn around and go to me.
17:12Well, I'm grateful that he didn't realize that.
17:15Yeah, well, him going to anyone to muscle me was a dumb move, and he should have known that.
17:21Plus, any move he was going to make against me would only hurt Vanessa.
17:26And now that he's gone, you have no obstacles in the pursuit of his wife.
17:31Doug couldn't be an obstacle in his wildest dreams.
17:34I had no reason to hurt the man.
17:39So you can rest easy, counselor.
17:42By coming to me and giving me a heads up, you didn't sign his death warrant.
17:50We'll probably need ballroom A for the repass with the option to spill over into B.
17:55My husband was well-known and respected.
17:59Yes, ma'am.
18:00We'll discuss the menu later.
18:02Yes, Mrs. Bright.
18:03And again, you have my deepest condolences.
18:07Donnell!
18:09Sweetheart, what are you doing here?
18:12Jane told me you were here.
18:13I meant what brought you back home.
18:16After I saw you and Deanna, I thought...
18:18I took a leave of absence from school.
18:21Why?
18:22I was clear with both you and your sister that...
18:25I didn't want you to disrupt your lives.
18:27There's no way I could focus on classes right now.
18:30And here...
18:32Maybe it'll help me believe Dad's really gone.
18:35And help you, too.
18:38That's so sweet of you.
18:40But I'm doing fine, and I'm concerned about Deanna being at Banneker alone.
18:46She's not alone, Mom.
18:48She's got her floors around her all the time and regular sessions with her therapist.
18:51But now, I'm starting to wonder if the real reason you didn't want me and Deanna to come to the funeral
18:57was because you didn't want us to know the truth.
19:00What do you mean?
19:02Dad.
19:05I was honest with you about how he died.
19:08No, I just came from the hospital.
19:10They told me he quit his job there months ago.
19:12How come nobody told me?
19:16Your father and I wanted to protect you and your sister.
19:21From what?
19:24If you don't level with me about what was going on,
19:27I'll find somebody else who will.
19:30Your father was having some personal struggles
19:34that were impacting his job performance.
19:37In the interest of patient care and his own well-being,
19:40he resigned.
19:42Job performance?
19:44Patient care?
19:46Come on, Mom.
19:48I'm not a little kid anymore.
19:50Whatever the truth is, just tell me.
19:52Your father had started gambling heavily.
20:04It got out of control.
20:07For how long?
20:09I mean, why did you get him some help?
20:13I didn't realize how far gone he was until it was too late.
20:17You should have told me.
20:25Maybe I could have tried to find a way to get through to him.
20:30Dad might still be alive.
20:47Before I start,
20:52I need you to level with me
20:54about how much progress you've actually made.
20:57So, are you running marathons?
20:58I swear to you, nothing has changed.
21:01I have twinges of feeling back in part of my legs,
21:04but I still can't walk.
21:08Relax.
21:09This is for your own good.
21:12Guilt causes stress, you know?
21:14And stress won't help you with your recovery.
21:18Assuming you even feel guilty
21:20for lying to the woman you say you love
21:22and you're not a full-blown sociopath.
21:23It's hard keeping this secret from Ashley,
21:26but I'm hoping to surprise her
21:28by walking at the wedding.
21:31So, just how is this supposed to work?
21:34She comes walking down the aisle towards you
21:36and you leap out of your wheelchair yelling,
21:38praise Jesus, I can walk!
21:41Like one of those con artists
21:42who works with a bogus faith healer?
21:43You're deliberately putting a negative spin on all this.
21:46Because there's nothing positive
21:48about making a phony miracle at your own wedding.
21:51I want the occasion to be memorable
21:53and special for Ashley.
21:55You can do that by sparging on a good DJ
21:57in a chocolate fountain.
21:59Derek, it is clear to me
22:02that you are keeping this secret
22:04because you're afraid that Ashley
22:05might leave you for Andre
22:07if she feels like you don't need her.
22:09And what I don't get is
22:10why are you so insecure
22:10now that Andre's married to Danny?
22:12Andre's married?
22:17I want an explanation.
22:21Caroline, is this all you can find?
22:23No annumment or divorce papers?
22:25No.
22:25Hey, I am waiting.
22:28In a moment, sweetheart.
22:31Any chance the officiant forgot to sign
22:33or file something?
22:34Anything?
22:35No, the marriage is legal.
22:37Dammit.
22:37Good.
22:38And I hope they live happily ever after.
22:43I don't suppose they were smart enough
22:45to draft a prenup.
22:47Well, in all my years working here,
22:49I've never known of an impulsive Vegas wedding
22:51with a prenup.
22:53Yeah, that's true.
22:55All right.
22:56All right, thanks.
22:57And we'll continue this later.
22:58You have one last chance to explain to me
23:09why you give a damn about Danny's marriage
23:11before you have two exes instead of just one.
23:16Haley, I asked Caroline to look into Danny's marriage
23:19because of the financial ramifications, okay?
23:22Danny is a wealthy woman.
23:24And one day, my daughters,
23:26they should inherit her estate.
23:27But now this, this dilettante,
23:29this player has claims to it all.
23:33Andre inherited his own fortune
23:35when his parents died,
23:36so he doesn't need Danny's money.
23:38You just can't stand the fact that Danny remarried.
23:41I think you liked knowing your ex was still pining for you
23:44and that door was still open.
23:45Yeah, well, you couldn't be more wrong.
23:46And that's why you had Caroline looking everywhere
23:49to see if there was a reason
23:51that this marriage is invalid.
23:52You know, actually, I would have asked Danny all this myself,
23:54but I didn't want to upset my wife.
23:56So I decided I'd better find out
23:57without going anywhere near Danny
23:59since you did ask me to stay far away from her.
24:02Talk about following the letter
24:04rather than the spirit of the law.
24:07Well, my spirit is pretty steam right now.
24:16Now, just how did Bill have anything to do
24:18with this disastrous marriage?
24:20The night Andre and I flew to Vegas,
24:23I was supposed to have dinner with Bill, Naomi, and Chelsea.
24:27Nothing romantic, just us and the girls.
24:30And let me guess, he canceled on you.
24:33Honey, it was just dinner.
24:34No, it wasn't.
24:36Haley got her panties in such a bundle
24:38that she ordered Bill to tell me
24:40that we needed space from each other forever.
24:42Well, Haley might be right for once.
24:44You and Bill do bring out the worst in each other.
24:46When things are bad.
24:48But when I have that man's heart,
24:50it is the ultimate high.
24:52You know how happy I was for so many years.
24:56I think I remember those years
24:58a little more clearly than you do.
25:02Look, I'm not claiming
25:03that it was ever a perfect relationship.
25:06But the point is that this time,
25:08the hurt and disappointment
25:09led me straight to that wedding chapel.
25:11If I hadn't been focused on Andre,
25:14I might have attacked Bill again.
25:16He's the addiction.
25:17Then you need to figure out a 12-step program
25:20to stop Bill from having power over you.
25:22Lord, grant me the power
25:24to accept the bill I cannot change?
25:25Exactly!
25:27You need to come to terms
25:29with a life without Bill.
25:30Your obsession with this man
25:32led you to fire a gun at his wedding,
25:34and now you've run off
25:35and married your sister's nephew, of all people.
25:37Where does it end?
25:38I don't know!
25:39I wish to God I did!
25:46Sweetheart,
25:47I am sure
25:49Doug thought he would get home safely
25:52when he decided to get behind
25:53the wheel of that car.
25:56What if something similar happens with you?
26:00Would you accidentally kill Bill
26:02the next time you go after him?
26:05Or somehow cause harm to yourself?
26:09I thought of you in prison
26:13or worse,
26:14that would destroy me.
26:18No one's going to prison or worse, Mom.
26:20You don't know that.
26:23Now you need to find a way
26:24to get over Bill once and for all
26:27before it costs you everything.
26:38Car table's open for another hour.
26:39Oh no, I'm just looking for information.
26:41Well, you're looking in the wrong place.
26:43This ain't no internet.
26:44Does the name Doug McBride ring any bells?
26:49Who the hell wants to...
26:50Oh my God, Donnell.
26:54Boy, I haven't seen you since you were a kid.
26:57Randy, Randy Parker.
26:59Me and your father, we go way back.
27:01Remember he used to bring you along to the park
27:03when we used to hoop?
27:04Yeah.
27:05Yeah, I remember that.
27:07Wasn't there some type of summer tournament?
27:09Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
27:10Every summer, man.
27:11I remember your dad used to palm your little bean head
27:13and act like he was a ball
27:14and he was going to dunk you.
27:15Yeah, and you used to give me money
27:16for the ice cream man.
27:17You and them damn creamsicles.
27:20So you and my dad,
27:22y'all just stopped hanging out?
27:25Oh, no, no, man.
27:26It wasn't nothing like that.
27:27You know, I didn't really fit in
27:29with the country club vibe.
27:30And as your mom and dad started rising up the food chain,
27:33you know, two of us just mostly hung out here.
27:37So my dad, he used to come to the casino
27:39just to visit you?
27:41Well, I mean, that doesn't really matter now, right?
27:46Look, man, I'm just trying to figure out
27:47what happened, all right?
27:49Someone told me he used to gamble a lot.
27:53Have a seat, kid.
27:55Go ahead, sit down.
28:00Look, Donnie,
28:03I'm not going to lie to you, all right?
28:05Your dad was a regular here at the poker table, right?
28:08He even sat in that very chair.
28:09Was he here the night he died?
28:13Your father, for most of his life,
28:16was a stand-up guy.
28:18And I know that's the way he wants you to remember him.
28:20I'm going to take that as a yes.
28:22This is where my dad was drinking
28:24right before the accident.
28:25I can't believe Ashley didn't tell you
28:30Danny and Andre are married.
28:31He came by the hospital,
28:33shared the news the other day.
28:34Maybe it was too difficult for her to talk about?
28:38Because she's still hung up on the guy.
28:40More like she knows that Andre is a sore spot for you
28:44and she didn't want to mention his name.
28:45The important thing is,
28:47Andre is not worried about Ashley,
28:48so he is the least of your worries.
28:51Ashley did tell me she had a feeling
28:53I'd have a breakthrough today.
28:55That's perfect.
28:56Now you can do your big reveal
28:57and have an honest relationship.
29:00Now go ahead and order that chocolate fountain.
29:02You have a point.
29:04This could be the right moment to tell her the truth.
29:10Oh, excuse me.
29:12Hey.
29:15Um, hey, for what it's worth,
29:17I decided to take your advice.
29:19Yeah, me and Danny decided to stay married.
29:22Oh.
29:22Well, I hope you're as happy as I am
29:24with my how-did-you-put-it-safe comfort zone engagement.
29:28Yeah, I shouldn't have said that.
29:29I'm sorry.
29:32Don't be.
29:33Derek and I are deliriously happy,
29:35and I hope you and Danny are too.
29:39Yeah.
29:40We are happy.
29:42Yeah.
29:43Good.
29:43Well, I guess you're adjusting to living together
29:46just like we are.
29:47Although Danny's house is huge.
29:49Her closet is the size of my whole apartment.
29:52Uh, no, we haven't worked out
29:54those living arrangements yet.
29:56I'm still at my old place.
29:58Huh.
29:59Well, never works for you, I guess.
30:01Yeah.
30:02Oh, my God.
30:03It just hit me.
30:05What?
30:06You are Naomi's stepfather now.
30:09How's that going for you?
30:11We haven't discussed that situation
30:12with either of Danny's daughters.
30:13Okay, but what is it like
30:16when you're all together?
30:18Well, we haven't really seen them
30:19since we got married.
30:21Okay, so you haven't moved in,
30:24and you're not blending with her family.
30:28Yeah.
30:31Doesn't seem like much of a marriage to me.
30:35Hey.
30:42We need to talk.
30:43Perfect timing.
30:45I can get your marriage and old
30:46within 24 hours.
30:47I'll even do a pro bono.
30:49No, thank you.
30:50Why do you have a copy
30:52of my marriage certificate?
30:53Oh, I just wanted more verification
30:54than that idiotic wedding selfie.
30:57My marriage is very real.
30:58Oh, yeah.
30:59Then why are you here?
31:01Instead of with your
31:01nearly incestuous, underaged groom.
31:05Because my spidey senses tingle
31:07whenever you're thinking about me,
31:09which obviously you are,
31:10this connection between us
31:13is threatening to wreck
31:14both of our marriages.
31:16So I think we better figure out
31:18how to sever it once and for all.
31:19I don't know what's worse,
31:25Danny insisting on staying married to Andre
31:27or the fact that the reason
31:29she ran off to Vegas in the first place
31:30is because she can't get over Bill.
31:33Andre's reasons for this marriage
31:34are pretty dysfunctional as well.
31:36They're not going to be happy
31:37in this marriage,
31:38but neither one of them
31:39is willing to admit it.
31:41Vanessa,
31:44you have my deepest condolences.
31:50Thank you, Anita.
31:52Sorry I took so long.
31:54But I brought Mother along to help.
31:56Anita Dupree is an expert
31:57when it comes to planning events like this.
31:59I will gratefully take
32:01all the help I can get.
32:02How's the planning going?
32:04I was arranging for the repast
32:06when Donnell showed up.
32:08He took some time off from school
32:09because he's having trouble
32:10processing Doug's death
32:11and I've only added to it.
32:13Don't say that.
32:15Donnell's suffering
32:16because his father died,
32:17not because of anything that you did.
32:20You're wrong there.
32:21I failed my children.
32:23No.
32:25No, you didn't.
32:27Vanessa,
32:28every mother has been in your shoes,
32:30including myself.
32:32You just have to trust
32:34that your love and support
32:35will heal your son.
32:37I appreciate the sentiment,
32:40but I can't help but feel
32:42that I've hurt my family beyond repair.
32:49Randy,
32:50go to the cash cage,
32:52make sure everything's ready.
32:53We have a whale coming in tonight.
32:57Will do.
32:58I'll sell you out.
33:00I'll find my way.
33:02Thanks, Randy.
33:04Yeah.
33:04You the guy who owns this place?
33:11That would be me.
33:13Then you're the one
33:14who's responsible
33:14for my father's death.
33:18It wasn't that long ago
33:19that you said
33:20having your own place
33:21was the secret
33:22to a happy relationship.
33:24Yeah,
33:25Danny and I's marriage
33:26may be a little
33:27unconventional,
33:28but it doesn't mean
33:29that it's not real.
33:30Well,
33:32I'm glad.
33:35Look,
33:35I just want you
33:36to be happy.
33:38Wow.
33:39How crazy is it
33:40that you are
33:40one of the few people
33:41who are supportive
33:43of my marriage?
33:45Well,
33:45you being married
33:45is better for all of us.
33:46It means that
33:47you're really unavailable.
33:50I know.
33:52What?
33:52Hey,
33:57I have to go talk
33:59to my Uncle Ted.
34:00Mm-hmm.
34:01Yeah.
34:08Hey.
34:10How'd your physical
34:11therapy session go?
34:13No breakthrough.
34:14Sorry.
34:16Everything's the same
34:17as before.
34:17I couldn't agree more.
34:22We need to put an end
34:23to this,
34:24I don't know,
34:25whatever this thing is
34:26that started between us
34:27when Chelsea disappeared.
34:28You know,
34:28just the sight of paperwork
34:30with your name on it
34:31is triggering for Haley.
34:32Oh,
34:32poor widow,
34:33howie,
34:33howie.
34:34Clearly,
34:35I made the better decision
34:36in my second marriage.
34:38Andre is secure enough
34:39in our relationship
34:39that it doesn't faze him
34:41when I mention my ex.
34:42Okay,
34:43well,
34:43rather than engaging
34:44in any more Haley bashing,
34:45why don't we just focus
34:46on resolving
34:47our current situation.
34:48How about that?
34:50What do you suggest?
34:51I don't know,
34:52boundaries.
34:52Clearly,
34:53I'm no good at those,
34:54so I was relying
34:55on your usual
34:56annoyingly brilliant self.
34:59Okay.
35:00Um,
35:01well,
35:01we can hurl insults
35:03at each other.
35:04Piss each other off
35:05so much
35:05that we'd be happy
35:06to never see each other again.
35:07Easy enough.
35:08You first.
35:09Okay.
35:10Dani,
35:11you are
35:12a walking,
35:14talking,
35:15toxic storm.
35:15Bill,
35:17you are a heartless,
35:20manipulative bastard.
35:22And you are,
35:24you are
35:26incredibly beautiful.
35:30I'm slowly
35:38thinking,
35:40look at the
35:52light.
