00:06Burt? Burt? Burt? Burt? What? What is this? It's your Norwegian flag. There is not a chance in hell I
00:14requested this. No, it's on the house. Get it? Because it's on the house? I'm just kidding. You'll be charged
00:20for it. No, but everybody's getting one. Why, have we been ceded to Norway? Ah, no time to explain it.
00:25I've got a lot of flags to deliver. Morning, Dr. Best.
00:32Oh, welcome on. Now I can add Norwegian to the list of accents that I can do for my Juilliard
00:38callback. Assuming I get the callback, which of course I will. What other accents can you do? Please, let's not
00:44get her started. Oh, the doctor do not understand the process of drama. Really? She's just adding an A to
00:53the end of words. Top of the morning to ya. Good eye, mate. Fancy Vegemite on toast for brekkie.
01:00How about performing your role as administrative assistant? How about that? Bless his little heart.
01:10I filled his water bowl. Dogs need to hydrate after a walk. That's not his water bowl. That's my cereal
01:15bowl. Whoops. My bad.
01:17I wanted to ask if you'd come to my Norway presentation at school this afternoon. My mom has to work
01:24and my dad lives in New Hampshire. Oh, this afternoon. I wish I could, but I don't think so. I'm
01:30sorry.
01:30Stop. Louisa just called and asked if you could come to Legion Hall. She says it's an emergency.
01:35Louisa?
01:35Yes.
01:38Sorry, Peter.
01:45What's wrong? What's the emergency?
01:47Oh.
01:48It's not a medical emergency. It's a town emergency.
01:55We are obviously still reeling from the news that our beloved town elder and fellow council member Agnes Kluf jumped
02:01off a cliff, but we'd rather not talk about it.
02:05So why are we talking about it?
02:06Because not only are the optics less than ideal, we've yet to name a replacement for the town council, and
02:12the Norwegians come today.
02:13What is up with the Norwegians?
02:15Haven't you heard? We're getting a sister city. Geneva and Franklin have been trying to make this happen for a
02:21decade.
02:22Portland, Maine has five sister cities. Five.
02:25Yeah, I heard.
02:25Meanwhile, Port Wen has been sitting on the city-seeking cities list for years.
02:29And we finally got interest from a small coastal town in Norway.
02:34And the Norwegian delegation is arriving today to visit and to sign an official sister city agreement.
02:43Well, that's ridiculous. Why would they fly all the way over here for something strictly ceremonial?
02:48It's a cultural exchange, and it will be so great for Port Wen.
02:52Pen pals for the students and a sharing of traditions and best practices.
02:58I mean, everyone, everyone is thrilled.
03:00Yes, everyone.
03:00And although our fellow council member Glendon was strongly against the idea,
03:06the three of us, we overruled him and voted that you should take over Agnes' seat in the town council.
03:11What? No.
03:12Yeah.
03:12No.
03:13It's temporary, and the Port Wen charter says that we need an uneven number,
03:17and we need someone soon because Glendon is already at the airport picking up the Norwegians, so.
03:22But why me?
03:23Well, we need someone impressive and accomplished.
03:27And we knew you'd be in a suit.
03:35As president of the Port Wen town council, I'd like to welcome Sigrid Lutvig Johansson from, how do you say
03:43it, Fajords?
03:45Fjordhaven.
03:59Fjordhaven.
04:00Fjordhaven is the Port Wen of Norway.
04:02I hope they're not expecting an uptick in tourism.
04:05We are thrilled and honored that the two of you came all this way.
04:10Actually, the three of us.
04:11Yes!
04:13Should you even be here?
04:14Yeah, I could ask you the same thing.
04:16I mean, traveling.
04:17Oh, this is our fourth child, so not my, um, number one horse show.
04:24Uh, not your first rodeo.
04:28Yes!
04:32And now it's my profound pleasure to represent Port Wen in signing our official Sister City Agreement with Fjordhaven.
04:51Sheriff Mark, could you take some pictures for me on my phone?
04:55Mark?
04:56Yes.
04:57Welcome.
04:57What?
04:57I was asking if you could take some pictures for me.
05:00Yeah, of course.
05:01You got it.
05:03Okay, everybody.
05:06On three, one.
05:08That's nice.
05:09Here you go, buddy.
05:10That's nice.
05:11Please, now, everyone, enjoy Canabula.
05:14This is a traditional Norwegian pastry from the best bakery in Fjordhaven.
05:19It's the only bakery in Fjordhaven, but they are delicious, so be sure to try one.
05:24You don't have to tell me twice.
05:27Welcome in.
05:28I'm Elaine.
05:30I work with our Dr. Best.
05:31It's pleasant to meet you, Elaine.
05:34And Dr. Best.
05:35It is an honor.
05:36We have heard much about you.
05:38Yes, the famous surgeon who he roguely stepped in when Port Venn lost its doctor.
05:43You're a legend.
05:44I think that's overstating it a bit.
05:46Yeah, most people here don't like him that much.
05:50Oh, hello.
05:52Oh, we'd love to see your practice.
05:54Oh, definitely.
05:55It is in your house, yes?
05:57Mm-hmm.
05:57Oh, so cute.
05:58Maybe we can gift you a piece of equipment you need.
06:01Oh.
06:02An espresso maker would be nice.
06:03No, no, something much more than that.
06:06A machine for the x-rays or a new EKG.
06:10I have all the equipment I need.
06:13There are some nicer people over here that kind of eat you.
06:15Let's go do that.
06:18Aren't they great?
06:20Not really.
06:21They seem over the top.
06:23Why are they trying so hard?
06:25As a temporary town council member, maybe you could try harder at being less negative.
06:32Hi.
06:33Oh, sorry, sorry, sorry.
06:37Is everything okay between us?
06:38I mean, I know we haven't talked since...
06:40Yeah, we're cool.
06:41You're welcome.
06:42Really?
06:42Oh, okay.
06:43I'm glad.
06:44You should try one of the whole-level-outs?
06:46There's my third one, but I'm going to dip this one in coffee.
06:49How good does that sound?
06:51Am I right?
06:52Maybe you should swallow first.
06:53Yum.
06:54You know.
07:05Are you okay?
07:07Yeah, I'm fine, I'm fine.
07:08You got him?
07:09Yeah, I'm all right, I'm all right, I'm all right.
07:15You okay?
07:16Just tired. I haven't been sleeping well.
07:19Mark, have you put on weight?
07:21Maybe a few pounds.
07:22Why? When was the last time you went to the gym?
07:24I'm just saying, between the weight gain and the insomnia,
07:26maybe it's time for a checkup.
07:27Fine. They're still not my friend or my councilman.
07:31Stupid sash.
07:59Thanks, sir.
08:03So, have I seen you tonight?
08:07You think that I would miss the first-ever lobster roll out the red carpet
08:12for the Norwegians' dinner?
08:14Uh-uh.
08:15So, they're staying at the Salty Breeze,
08:17and Sarah, they're gorjois, both of them, like Nordic gods.
08:22Like, do we serve them dinner, or do we just lay food at their feet?
08:26Well, these lobsters are so fresh,
08:28their families don't even know they're missing yet.
08:31That's dark. I love it.
08:33See you tonight.
08:35Okay.
08:36Drive careful with those bugs.
08:38Yeah, they'll be fine in hot water and garlic butter.
08:44Ow!
08:48Ow!
08:50What?
08:53Who's flying this thing?
08:55Huh?
08:57Who did this?
09:02Doc, I need to talk to you privately.
09:07That's normally how it works with doctors.
09:09What seems to be the problem?
09:11I, well...
09:12I'm not sure how to say this.
09:14It will sound insane.
09:16I assure you I've heard it all before.
09:18Okay.
09:19The thing is,
09:20I haven't had a bowel movement in five days.
09:23You're constipated?
09:25Well, yes.
09:26It's totally normal.
09:28It's nothing to be embarrassed about.
09:29It's likely due to a lack of dietary fibers, fluid...
09:32No.
09:32...exercise.
09:33No.
09:33I know what's causing it.
09:35I'm afraid to go.
09:36Because five days ago,
09:38I pooped a little man.
09:41I, I...
09:42Sorry, I don't understand.
09:43You...
09:45You pooped...
09:46on a little man?
09:48No, your stool...
09:51was shaped like a little man?
09:53There was a little man in my poop,
09:54and I panicked,
09:55and I flushed him down the toilet.
09:56Okay.
09:57Just take it easy, okay?
09:59I think you had a vivid dream.
10:00That's a dream so intense and lifelike
10:02that you wake up and you think it's real.
10:04Your brain even treats it like a memory.
10:05No.
10:05It was the middle of the day,
10:07and tonight is our big dinner for the Norwegians.
10:09This isn't a good time for me to be cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs.
10:12Greg, are you on any new medication
10:14that could cause you to hallucinate?
10:16There wasn't a hallucination either.
10:18It happened.
10:20I pooped a little man.
10:26Did the little man say anything?
10:30It wasn't a real man.
10:31Okay, okay.
10:32It doesn't matter what you saw or think you saw, okay?
10:35First and foremost,
10:36we need to take care of his constipation.
10:37Oh, okay.
10:39Okay.
10:42That is a prescription for laxatives
10:45in case the over-the-counters don't work.
10:47Okay?
10:48And don't tell anyone about this.
10:51Again, that's normally how it works with doctors.
11:09And the home of the brave.
11:25Thank you, Mallory.
11:26Okay, and lastly, but not leastly,
11:28we have Peter Kronk.
11:29Oh, nap time.
11:32Oh, credit.
11:33For my project,
11:35I whittled white pine into a miniature replica of a Viking ship because...
11:45Because pineustrobus...
11:46Did he just say penis?
11:49More commonly known as eastern white pine is Maine State Tree.
11:53So, this ship represents the blending of our cultures.
11:57Please take this gift as a reminder that you have a friend across the ocean in Portland.
12:04So beautiful.
12:06Thank you, thank you, Peter.
12:08And this concludes our presentation for our friends from Fjordhaven.
12:12Fjordhaven.
12:13Fjordhaven.
12:14Fjordhaven.
12:15Fjordhaven.
12:16Fjordhaven.
12:21Fjordhaven.
12:22How can a jewel of a school like this be closing?
12:26This is a tragedy.
12:29I know.
12:29Don't start.
12:30You're gonna make me cry.
12:31Your town.
12:32Your...
12:32Your children.
12:34It...
12:35It burns my heart.
12:38I am too moved.
12:40Poor Sigrid.
12:41But she feels too much.
12:43Oh, children.
12:44Oh.
12:46Don't you see?
12:47They care about this town as much as we do.
12:49What, if they've been here three hours?
12:52I thought Scandinavian people were supposed to be stoic.
12:55Don't you ever get tired of being like this?
12:57Like what?
12:58Too...
12:59Distrustful.
13:00I don't know.
13:00I guess it's just the way I am.
13:02Well, it's never too late to change.
13:08Is that your dad?
13:10Yeah.
13:18She ate a little cotton her head, but don't worry.
13:21I cleaned her up for you.
13:24I don't have any idea what she just said to you, but this thing hit me in the back of
13:29my head.
13:30Hard enough to break in half?
13:32Well, no.
13:33That happened after I jumped up and down on it, but it broke my skin.
13:36It's left a...
13:37a goose egg the size of Bar Harbor.
13:40Hey, just put cold compress on it.
13:43Yeah.
13:44Leave it there.
13:47Damn machine.
13:48Not gonna take me down.
13:50Oh, by the way, you going to the Legion Hall tonight for the Sister City dinner?
13:54Haven't we seen enough of those people?
13:56Oh.
13:56I'm serious.
13:57I don't like them.
13:58I don't trust them.
13:59I mean, why did they even choose Port Wynn?
14:01Because it's a beautiful place with warm and caring people save one cynical misanthropic
14:07doctor.
14:08You really think I'm that negative?
14:10You're horrible.
14:11Good news is it's never too late to change or to try.
14:15So I've heard.
14:15Partners, there's a new sheriff in town.
14:19Truth is, he ain't new.
14:20It is Mark, but he's wanting to talk to Sarah.
14:22Well, send him in.
14:23I'm sorry.
14:24Is he your next patient?
14:26Hi, Sarah.
14:27I got your message.
14:28Let's get down your statement.
14:30Here's my statement.
14:31Whoever you were that was flying that damn toy, you're gonna be lobster bait unless you
14:38come to me and apologize for almost killing me, you stupid moron.
14:42I meant more like what time did it happen?
14:46Oh, it was about noon.
14:48Noon?
14:49Bastards.
14:50Broad daylight.
14:54Any idea who was operating this thing?
14:56If I did, they'd be here seeking medical attention.
15:01D-S-E-N.
15:03I think that's just part of the word right at the break.
15:06I'm sorry.
15:07Who made you Watson?
15:11And how are you feeling, Mark?
15:12How do you think I'm feeling?
15:14We have visitors in from Norway, one of the safest countries in the world, and I can't
15:19even protect our citizens from illegal drones.
15:22How does that make me look?
15:27Mark, did you just lose your balance just gesturing?
15:30No.
15:31I don't know what happened.
15:33Have you been feeling dizzy lately?
15:36Yes.
15:37That's what happened this morning.
15:39You know what?
15:39I have a new theory.
15:41No, not that.
15:44You might have vertigo.
15:46It would line up with your symptoms.
15:48We should do a quick Romberg test.
15:50I told you.
15:51I haven't had anything to drink.
15:53Yes, but it can also be used to test vertigo.
15:55Let's go.
15:56Feet together, arms out.
15:56No, I do it.
16:05Well, you're swaying, Mark.
16:07So it could be vertigo.
16:08You should stay here for more diagnostics, and we could do a Dick's Hall Pike maneuver
16:12to try to reset the semicircular canals.
16:14Okay, the semicircular canals can wait.
16:16It's chaos out there, and I'm the thin blue line.
16:19Not as thin as I used to be.
16:21Thank you so much for reminding me of that.
16:23But right now, more than ever, poor Wen needs its sheriff.
16:28And I'm the sheriff!
16:33Okay.
16:35Your blood pressure is normal.
16:37The unexplained weight gain is a little concerning.
16:40It's not unexplained.
16:42I've been super hungry lately.
16:44Okay.
16:44Increased appetite.
16:45And you said fatigue?
16:47Uh-huh.
16:48Still on antibiotics for the impalement?
16:50I took the last of them this morning.
16:53Have you been drinking well on them?
16:54Of course not.
16:55I know better than that.
16:58Okay.
16:59Well, everything looks fairly normal.
17:03But with your consolation of symptoms, I'd still like to rule out hyperthyroidism,
17:08insulin imbalance, and anemia.
17:10We'll have Elaine do a blood draw, and I'll call you when we get the lab results back.
17:14But not for any other reason.
17:16Don't call just to shoot the you-know-what.
17:19Because those days are over.
17:22Irritability.
17:23Irritability.
17:27What is it?
17:30Martin.
17:31Oh.
17:31Hi.
17:32Hi.
17:32Yeah.
17:33Please come in.
17:34I'll just be a minute.
17:37You see, the thing is, as a temporary town council member, you are supposed to go to
17:42the lobster roll-out-the-red carpet tonight, and I imagine there's nothing you'd like to
17:48do less, and to make it even more exciting.
17:50Geneva wants us all in sweaters, and this one is yours.
18:00Yeah.
18:00Okay.
18:01Um, I, uh, I'll tell her that you've just had too much work to do.
18:04Okay.
18:05Actually, you know, I've been meaning to tell you, um...
18:09Yes?
18:10The other night, when I came to the Salty Breeze to talk about the...
18:13Yes, the...
18:14...that, and you said that you wanted...
18:16Yeah.
18:17Yeah, but...
18:18Right.
18:19Well, if you are still serious about wanting a child...
18:23Yes?
18:26I, um...
18:28What?
18:28I know a specialist that I think you'd want to talk to.
18:32Oh.
18:34Um...
18:34A specialist?
18:36Uh...
18:36Yeah.
18:36Uh...
18:37Your hemochromatosis and the iron overload can affect fertility.
18:41Oh.
18:41That, and coupled with your age, I...
18:44Yeah, I...
18:44What you're saying is I planned this really well.
18:48Um...
18:49You know a...
18:49A specialist?
18:51Fertility.
18:52One of the best.
18:53But she's in Boston.
18:54Oh, well, I'm...
18:54I'm happy to go to Boston to see one of the best.
18:59Great.
18:59Okay.
19:00Well, I'll...
19:00I'll...
19:01Email her...
19:02Email you...
19:03Okay.
19:04Her...
19:04Contact information.
19:06Well, thanks.
19:06Yeah.
19:06Thanks.
19:07Uh, yeah.
19:10Louisa.
19:12Yes, Martin?
19:17When you and Mark were dating, did he ever resort to drinking or drugs when he was feeling
19:22stressed or depressed?
19:24Never.
19:24You know.
19:26Although, honestly, I can't remember Mark ever being stressed or depressed.
19:29He was always so positive and happy.
19:31Mm-hmm.
19:32It must have been pleasant, being with someone who's so happy all the time.
19:37It was, actually.
19:41Oh, sorry.
19:42Uh...
19:43Doc, I need to see you right away about the event.
19:46Mm-hmm.
19:47Tonight.
19:48It's going to be great.
19:54The lock said it worked.
19:56But it happened again.
19:58I pooped another little man.
19:59You've got to be kidding me.
20:01Is this how it starts?
20:02First you lose your keys, and then you have trouble remembering names, and then you start
20:05hallucinating little men in your poop?
20:08Greg?
20:09I know you're in there.
20:11Are you okay?
20:12Yes.
20:12Of course.
20:13Why wouldn't I be?
20:14You went pale and rushed out, and now you're in a doctor's office, and you won't let me in.
20:24I followed you.
20:25I'm sorry, baby, but you've been acting very strange.
20:28Is there something you're not telling me?
20:30I can't say it aloud.
20:32Mm-hmm.
20:32You have to tell him.
20:34Whatever it is, we'll get through it together.
20:39Tell it to me straight, Doc.
20:42Greg thinks he's pooping little men.
20:44What?
20:45It happened twice, and I'm not imagining it.
20:49Is it possible that you ingested, you know, Toy Soldier, or I...
20:55No.
20:55I keep a food journal.
20:57I think I would remember writing Toy Soldier.
20:59And they aren't dressed like soldiers.
21:04How many little men have you pooped?
21:07Two.
21:08One five days ago, and another one today.
21:12I know.
21:13It sounds crazy.
21:15But I can see their faces.
21:18Their little eyes staring up at me, and Georgie.
21:23I feel like I know them.
21:25Wait a minute.
21:27Were these two little men wearing tuxedos?
21:33Greg, that's nasty.
21:37Oh!
21:38Greg, how could you?
21:39I didn't.
21:39I wouldn't.
21:40I forgot we even had that in our freezer.
21:43What was it?
21:44The top tier of our wedding cake.
21:47We were supposed to eat it together on our first anniversary.
21:50Which we never did because, well, you forgot about it, too.
21:54But I didn't eat it without you, including the grooms.
21:56There has to be another explanation.
21:57I have absolutely no memory of any of this.
22:01You could be sleep eating.
22:03Is that really a thing?
22:05It is a thing, and it can be dangerous.
22:08People in a sleep state sometimes use sharp utensils or eat non-food items.
22:12Baby, there have been crumbs in the bed I've been meaning to ask.
22:16That is so gross and embarrassing.
22:19How could I get from our bedroom all the way downstairs, eat not just the cake, but the cake toppers,
22:25get back to bed, and not remember any of it?
22:28No, you could set up a camera to see if that's what's really happening.
22:30Oh, sure.
22:32Might as well make the humiliation complete.
22:35I didn't even know you guys were married.
22:36Hey, no one did.
22:38But the cat's out of the bag.
22:40Hey, we didn't want to make a fuss, so we went to a justice of the peace five years ago.
22:44But Georgie still wanted to make a big, beautiful wedding cake, even if it was just the two of us.
22:50Was it still delicious five years later?
22:53Innocent until proven guilty.
22:55The proof is in the pooping.
22:57Oh!
23:04What would you say is the secret to your relationship?
23:08In the end, Georgie's just really good company.
23:11Greg, too.
23:13He always puts a smile on my face.
23:16Then he's cute.
23:19I'll leave you to it.
23:21And I said, were the little men wearing tuxedos?
23:24Yeah, yeah.
23:25So, in addition to eating the top tier of our wedding cake that had been in our freezer for five
23:29years, he was also eating at the cake toppers.
23:32Allegedly. We haven't seen proof.
23:36You got married five years ago and didn't tell anyone?
23:39We didn't want to make anyone uncomfortable.
23:41Uncomfortable? By your wedding?
23:43It can be a touchy subject for people, and you never know.
23:47You two are the bedrock of this town.
23:49I mean, every, every event, every silly ritual, you are the first to jump in.
23:55I mean, look at you. You look ridiculous.
23:56Uh, you're wrong.
23:57I just, how could you worry about not being, not being accepted?
24:01We knew it would probably be fine, but why risk it?
24:10It's time for big dance.
24:13I heard you have all been practicing.
24:16But, for those of you who haven't, it is as easy as one slice of pie.
24:22Today, we will be doing The Real Braunfjordhaven.
24:26The Real is a traditional Norwegian folk dance with three pots.
24:31Clapping.
24:33Hopping.
24:35And galloping.
24:36You've lost me at hopping.
24:41Hiya!
24:46Hello!
24:49So, Sara, I heard you are responsible for the delicious lobster we ate.
24:54Did you really catch them all yourself?
24:56Aw, thanks.
24:58It wasn't much, just three 16-hour lobstering days.
25:01Oh, I love a hard-working woman.
25:04In Norway, we are also built strong.
25:06We fish until we are 90.
25:08Oh, well.
25:09It's such an honor to meet you.
25:12She says that to everyone.
25:14What's wrong with you?
25:15I don't know, I just don't trust them.
25:18Call it instinct.
25:19Oh, next time we have visitors, how about we just ask them to spit in our eye and kick us
25:24in the shins.
25:24Is that what will make you happy, huh?
25:26Think about it.
25:28You do realize that your tenure on the council is... temporary?
25:32I can assure you, the only person who wants me off this town council more than you is me.
25:43I'm taking the early train to Boston in the morning to talk to Dr. Montgomery.
25:47Uh-huh.
25:47What did you say to get me in so quickly?
25:49Nothing.
25:49Oh, well, thank you.
25:52Oh, hey! Oh, hey!
26:00How much have you had a drink tonight?
26:01Just like one sip of Aquavit, but they try our lobster rolls, we try their Aquavit, it's a cultural exchange.
26:07I can smell the alcohol in your breath.
26:09What, so now you're calling me a liar?
26:10I'm just concerned.
26:11Why don't you just have some water, okay?
26:14Be careful, and let's have somebody drive you home.
26:16For the last time, I'm fine, okay?
26:19Just...
26:19Just...
26:31Go, brah.
26:32Extreme Scott.
26:34I totally agree.
26:35I think it's going great.
26:37I believe we have them eating out of the...
26:39middle of our heads.
26:40Is this how you say it?
26:44Mark!
26:47Mark!
26:53You all right?
26:54Yeah.
26:57I'm so sorry.
26:58I'm so sorry.
26:58I'm so sorry.
26:59I'm so sorry.
26:59Are you okay?
26:59What?
27:00You're okay?
27:00We need to take a breathalyzer right now.
27:02What's going on with you?
27:02You could have killed us.
27:05Oh.
27:11Whoa.
27:12I am really drunk.
27:14I mean, according to this, but that can't be right.
27:17What does it say?
27:170.16.
27:190.08 is legally drunk.
27:22But I just had that one sip of Aquavit.
27:25I even had a full belly.
27:26I had the three lobster rolls and a bunch of those Norwegian...
27:30The Knovelas.
27:31The Norwegian pastries I had.
27:34I'm telling the truth.
27:35I'm not drunk.
27:36Which is exactly what drunk people say when I stop them.
27:40They deny and argue and beg.
27:44And I still have to write them up.
27:50Take my badge.
27:52Take my keys.
27:54Take me.
28:01Mark, I really don't think this is necessary.
28:04The law is the law.
28:07Even though I'm not drunk.
28:09You have to believe me, Doc.
28:11I want to.
28:12But you just failed a breathalyzer test.
28:14You reek of alcohol.
28:15You nearly ran us over.
28:18Mark, if you've been drinking, you can tell me.
28:22Maybe I'm drinking so much that I can't even remember I've been drinking.
28:27I've had a really rough couple of months, you know?
28:30Like the broken engagement, the impalement, the chlamydia.
28:36And worse of all, my best bro betrayed me.
28:40Oh, come on.
28:41The impalement has to come first.
28:42Here, buddy.
28:43Take these.
28:45My bad.
28:46Bad throw.
28:47Added to the list.
28:48Just let me out in the morning when I've had an opportunity to sleep this off.
28:53And think about what I've done.
28:54Mark, this is ridiculous.
28:56Just let me drive you home.
28:57No, man.
28:58No can do.
28:59I sleep in the slammer.
29:01Don't even think about trying to break me out of here, man.
29:05All right.
29:05You know, fine.
29:07But I am going to leave you the keys to the cell.
29:10That's fine.
29:11Feel free.
29:12But I'm not gonna let me use them.
29:14Because this is not my number one horse show.
29:19Martin.
29:21Martin.
29:22Before you go.
29:29You passed me that box of donuts through the bars.
29:36Thank you for squeezing me into your schedule, Dr. Montgomery.
29:39No problem.
29:40Well, actually it was a problem.
29:41I had to move quite a few things around.
29:43Were you really referred by Martin Best?
29:45Yes.
29:46Is that surprising?
29:48Given how abruptly he left Boston, yeah.
29:50And he's your...
29:50He's your PCP?
29:52Yes.
29:53Um...
29:53And a friend.
29:54Huh.
29:54I suppose.
29:56He's a local doctor in Port Wen.
29:58I'm sorry, Port what?
29:59Port Wen, Maine.
30:01Ah.
30:02Where he summered as a kid.
30:04Uh, how do you know Martin?
30:07We used to date.
30:08Oh.
30:11It is really good that you came to see me because your fertility window is closing.
30:16But is it, like, just barely cracked open, or could you still feel a draft?
30:22Yeah.
30:23You're funny.
30:25So, as you can see, in the ultrasound it shows that you have a low antral follicle count,
30:30which suggests diminished ovarian reserve.
30:33Is that normal for women my age?
30:35Diminished, meaning low, compared to women your age.
30:40Great.
30:40So, if your blood tests come back and show that you have high FSH levels, IVF is going
30:46to be your best option.
30:48Is your partner open to IVF?
30:49Uh, I don't have a partner at the moment, which is why I waited apparently longer than
30:55I should have.
30:55Well, early bird gets the sperm.
30:58I'm kidding.
30:59I'm not kidding.
31:00Um, we'll know more definitively when the results come back.
31:04Now, is Martin, is he still single?
31:07I, I think so.
31:08I think so?
31:09Yeah.
31:10Um, how did, how did you two meet?
31:12Med school.
31:13Oh, you, you dated in med school?
31:14Yeah.
31:15And then for several years after that.
31:17Several?
31:17Okay.
31:18But we were married to our careers.
31:20And I suspect he never got over me.
31:23Obviously?
31:23Yeah.
31:24Obviously.
31:27So I should put my pants on now.
31:29All right.
31:30Well, uh, I will call you with the test results.
31:33Okay.
31:33Okay?
31:34And please, tell Marty I said hi.
31:38I will.
31:41Oh, there he is.
31:43I'm horrifying.
31:45I'm a disgusting Neanderthal sleep eater.
31:48How do I stop?
31:51No, the question is, why did you start?
31:53And why the wedding cake?
31:55Well, we did recently hit the five-year mark.
31:58And I guess I always felt guilty.
32:01We kept our marriage a secret.
32:03George told his parents I never even did that.
32:05Hmm.
32:06Well, that could be it.
32:07Talk therapy could help.
32:08You might get some relief now that more people know.
32:10Just make sure you're eating enough at night so that you're not hungry.
32:14Right?
32:14And worst comes to worst, some people put a lock on their refrigerator.
32:18I'm sorry, Georgie.
32:20You didn't sign up for this.
32:21I'm an embarrassment.
32:23Listen, I signed up for in sickness and in health.
32:26And baby, this is sick.
32:28Wait, there's more now.
32:30Wait.
32:31That's not you.
32:32Oh.
32:33That's Ludwig.
32:34Uh-huh.
32:34What is our Norwegian friend doing in your kitchen at 3 a.m.?
32:38Sleep eaters love company.
32:40Why is he going into the walk-in?
32:42Oh, oh.
32:43Because he was upset that we didn't have a mini fridge
32:45and he needed to store Sigrid's medication.
32:47So I told him he could use ours.
32:48Sigrid told me she doesn't believe in medication.
32:50It's another reason not to like her.
32:52Oh.
32:52How could you not like Siggy?
32:54We're obsessed with her.
32:55She's like Scandinavian Barbie.
32:57Pregnant with Scandinavian Ken's baby.
33:00Are you too serious?
33:01Look, I haven't had a moment.
33:02I heard Siggy speak perfect English to Ludwig.
33:07Mm-hmm.
33:09None of this.
33:10It's as simple as a slice of pie.
33:14You felt good about that?
33:15That was a horrible accent.
33:16Okay.
33:17Forget it.
33:18Why are they pretending her English is not so good?
33:20Maybe it's just their way of seeming less intimidating.
33:23Because they're gorgeous and perfect in every way.
33:27Hey, he's coming out now.
33:28If only.
33:30I need to see what's in your walk-in.
33:38I don't see any medicine here.
33:40Just a Norwegian yogurt.
33:42So Ludwig is a liar, see?
33:44Or he just likes yogurt.
33:45Now are you done slandering our guests?
33:47Because we need to get to work.
33:56This feels like an invasion of privacy.
33:58This is your kitchen.
33:59Maybe that's her medication.
34:01This is not medicine.
34:03These are water samples.
34:04With dates and times.
34:06Why would he need water samples?
34:08He's a science teacher.
34:10And so he says.
34:11Okay, okay, okay.
34:12Doc, that's enough.
34:13Stop being a hater.
34:14They're lovely people.
34:15Seriously, why do you assume the worst?
34:18Sure, there are bad people.
34:19But the world is also full of good, friendly, generous, big-hearted people.
34:25Why is it so hard for you to believe that?
34:28Because I don't know.
34:28That hasn't been my experience.
34:30Well, it's never too late to change.
34:33Is that a town motto?
34:34You're the third person today to...
34:36Sheriff Mark's lab results.
34:38I have to go see Mark.
34:39Well, maybe he can help you solve the case of the suspicious yogurt.
34:43Put it back where it was.
34:44Greg, Greg, Greg.
34:45I swear to God.
34:50Mark?
35:00Oh, you, you.
35:02What are you doing here?
35:03I'm looking for Mark.
35:04Me too.
35:05I heard he slept here last night and I wanted to see if he was okay.
35:07He's not.
35:09I got his lab results from yesterday morning.
35:12His blood alcohol level was already through the roof.
35:14And he should be in a hospital with an IV.
35:15I have no idea where he is.
35:16Okay.
35:17Um, well, his car is still here.
35:19He couldn't have gotten far.
35:20Let me, you know, he hasn't been answering his phone, so let me try again.
35:34Mark!
35:35Mark!
35:36Sally hasn't heard from him either.
35:39Mark!
35:40Is there anywhere else Mark used to go when he was unhandled?
35:45Um...
35:47There is one place.
35:49Yeah, yeah.
35:53Mark!
35:54Finally.
35:54Oh, my God!
35:55Great!
35:56The last two people I want to see.
35:58I was already having a terrible year, and now I'm an alcoholic, too.
36:02Mark, that really doesn't look safe.
36:03Please come down.
36:04Please?
36:04Nope!
36:05You're gonna have to come up!
36:11Okay.
36:13Okay.
36:14I got it, I got it.
36:14Okay.
36:17Mark.
36:18I probably know you better than anyone, and I really, really don't think that you are an alcoholic.
36:25I agree, Mark.
36:28But you would have had to drink to get your blood alcohol level to where it was.
36:34You'd be sick right now.
36:35Yeah.
36:37My teletherapist says that I eat my feelings, not drink them.
36:43The only thing that's been strange is how much he's been eating.
36:47I mean, it's been a lot more than usual.
36:50Well, I have a lot of feelings.
37:01Auto-brewery syndrome.
37:03Nope.
37:04That's not the secret password.
37:07That's what you have.
37:09The sugar, the carbs, right, plus your antibiotics and the gastric impalement.
37:15Your gut is fermenting yeast, and your stomach has basically created a brewery.
37:19So you do have alcohol in your system, which is making you act like a dangerously drunk person,
37:24because you're producing it, not drinking it.
37:28Wait, so I'm not an alcoholic, I'm just a brewery.
37:31Uh-uh.
37:32Did you hear that, Louisa?
37:33I did!
37:34I did!
37:34Yay!
37:39Could you both please come down now, please?
37:43You two really care about me.
37:48Yeah, of course we do, Mark.
37:49You climbed a tree house for me.
37:51I did.
37:51I did enjoy it.
37:52I love you.
37:54Both of you.
37:55As friends.
37:56Nothing more.
37:58Yeah.
37:59Oh, that's cool.
38:01No, not cool.
38:03It's illegal.
38:04We should get the police.
38:05Wait!
38:06I am the police!
38:09Wait, is that elusive?
38:17Thank you, Elaine, for not throwing out the trash when I ask you to.
38:21But he clear.
38:23That's no problem in Norwegian.
38:25Al, you think you can pull the footage from this drone?
38:27Maybe.
38:28Hi, Dr. Best.
38:30Guess what?
38:31I ordered Copernicus, a water and food bowl with his name on them.
38:36They come next week.
38:38Great.
38:39Listen, Peter, you can't tell people I'm your father.
38:43Why not?
38:44Because it's not true.
38:46But what if I wish it was true?
38:49Why would you want me as a father?
38:51You're mean, you're nice, and I trust you.
38:55Oh.
38:56Well, you're the one person who doesn't think I should change.
38:59You?
39:00No way.
39:01Then you wouldn't be you.
39:05Got it, Doc.
39:07You did?
39:09You cracked into the drone?
39:10Yep.
39:11By using the USB cable.
39:14Oh.
39:15Why is he filming the coastline?
39:17Because it's beautiful?
39:19Whoa.
39:22Are they underwater now?
39:23That's wild.
39:25It is wild, but why film underwater in Port Wentz not known for its coral reefs?
39:32Unless for the same reason you would test the water.
39:36Property of Havertzson Industries.
39:41Al, Google Havertzson Industries.
39:44A-h-a-v-a-r-d-d-s-e-n.
39:54A-h-a-v-a-r-d-d-s-e-n.
40:04It's based in Norway, owned by Bjorn Habertsen,
40:07whose daughter, Seagrid,
40:09is poised to take over the company in the next five years?
40:12Bet you $20 that's our Seagrid.
40:19Of course she's involved in this.
40:21Involved in what?
40:22It's unclear, but it's not good.
40:25Wait. Doc, this is my sister city.
40:28I already lost one sister. This is very triggering.
40:38Oh.
40:40Where's Ludwig and Seagrid?
40:42They went out sightseeing with Glendon.
40:44Why are you about to start trouble?
40:47Don't you be mean to those nice people.
40:49Nice people, my ass.
40:51Okay, Martin, give it a rest.
40:53And by the way, and Sarah,
40:54it was Ludwig who hit you with the drone.
40:56Oh. Oh. Now I'm mad.
40:58Mm-hmm. And what are they doing with Glendon anyway?
41:02Oh.
41:04Oh, so you've been sightseeing, huh?
41:07Around the harbor, perhaps?
41:09Yes.
41:10Sorry, did you...
41:11Oh, did you want to come with us?
41:12No. I want the people of Port Wendt
41:14to know the truth about our guests.
41:15What? That they're lovely people?
41:18Oh, that Seagrid's family
41:20owns a giant seafood conglomerate.
41:22And Ludwig here has been surveying our bay.
41:25Now, as a temporary town council member,
41:27I demand to know the real reason for your visit.
41:33A Nordic ocean-based salmon farm.
41:36One of the largest on the eastern seaboard.
41:39We will present our plans to the town,
41:40and we believe you will all be very happy
41:42with the proposition.
41:43A salmon farm?
41:45In our beautiful bay?
41:46It might spoil the view,
41:47but it will be very profitable for you all.
41:51There might even be an uptick in tourism.
41:53Children love salmon farms.
41:55But you still want to be our sister city.
41:58They never wanted to be our sister city, did you?
42:00You wanted to be your business partner
42:02that's much more meaningful.
42:04Is it?
42:05I'm having a hard time following all this
42:07since I got hit in the head with your drone.
42:09And you, you've known about this all along,
42:11haven't you, Glenda?
42:12I knew the people of this town
42:13would be much more open
42:14to meeting a sister city delegation
42:16than a potential investor and developer.
42:18But they're still the same people
42:19you've come to know and love,
42:20and they're offering us all
42:22a great opportunity.
42:24So Martin has been right about this whole thing
42:26the entire time?
42:27You'll see.
42:29This is all for the best.
