00:01:25Happy New Year's, kiddos.
00:01:50Happy New Year's, kiddos.
00:02:23Happy New Year's, kiddos.
00:02:34Happy New Year's, kiddos.
00:02:35Honey, I'm here.
00:02:36It's okay.
00:02:37I'm right here.
00:02:38Just remember the breathing, okay?
00:02:40You can do this, okay?
00:02:43Okay, Morgan, I need you to push on this next contraction, okay?
00:02:46I can't. I can't. I can't. I can't.
00:02:49Okay, good. Now push.
00:02:55Push. Push, push, push.
00:02:57Good, you got it.
00:02:57Oh, my God, you're doing it, baby.
00:02:59Almost there.
00:03:00You're doing it, baby. You're doing it.
00:03:02The head is coming.
00:03:03Oh, Morgan, it's...
00:03:04I got him. I got him.
00:03:06Do you want to cut the cord?
00:03:08Yeah.
00:03:31Okay, we do need to take him now.
00:03:34Can we just have a few minutes?
00:03:36I'm sorry.
00:03:37Do you remember what we talked about?
00:03:38Every minute matters.
00:03:42Yeah, okay.
00:04:02As we suspected
00:04:04from the prenatal ultrasound,
00:04:07Kevin's atrioventricular septal effect
00:04:10is allowing oxygen-rich blood.
00:04:13That's the red stuff you see here.
00:04:15It's allowing it to pass
00:04:17from his left atrium.
00:04:19to his heart.
00:04:20We have to go into surgery right away.
00:04:31You'll put it on him soon.
00:04:34Yeah.
00:04:43Hey.
00:04:45You know,
00:04:47you and me,
00:04:48we've been together
00:04:49since we were 14 years old.
00:04:53And right now,
00:04:53we're being tested.
00:04:56But I want you to know
00:04:57that I'm gonna take care of you.
00:05:01And we're gonna be okay.
00:05:04No matter what.
00:05:15Mr. and Mrs. Metzler,
00:05:19I'm very sorry.
00:05:28You are my sunshine,
00:05:29my only sunshine.
00:05:33You make me happy
00:05:36when skies are gray.
00:05:40You'll never know, dear,
00:05:43how much I love you.
00:05:45So please don't take my sunshine away.
00:06:12So please don't take my sunshine away.
00:06:15So please don't take my sunshine away.
00:06:20Bye.
00:06:51I'll take care of our folks when they get here.
00:06:54You wanna go upstairs and rest?
00:07:12I'm sorry. Is she doing okay?
00:07:17She just needs a man. She's upstairs.
00:07:19Okay.
00:07:25It's not right, Rodney.
00:07:26No.
00:07:27It's not right.

00:10:50It's kind of a big thing.
00:11:05Oh.
00:11:07I thought, you know, it's been a while and...
00:11:14I am so on board.
00:11:20And it's not just for fun.
00:11:26You know, I've been thinking that maybe the best way to heal is to keep trying.
00:11:32Oh.
00:11:37Say something.
00:11:39Well, I mean, that was always our dream.
00:11:43I guess...
00:11:45I guess it's just scary knowing that trying can lead to so much pain.
00:11:51I mean, but we still have to try, right?
00:11:53I mean, at least we owe ourselves that.
00:12:01You sure you're ready?
00:12:04Mm-hmm.
00:12:07Okay.
00:12:11Okay.
00:12:14Okay.

00:18:56Hey, where have you been?
00:18:58I was at my Tuesday group.
00:19:01Is everything okay?
00:19:03Not really.
00:19:04I thought you were picking up the kids.
00:19:06Isn't Tuesday your day?
00:19:09Usually, but you said you could do it today.
00:19:11Don't you remember?
00:19:13Um, I always do group on Tuesday,
00:19:16and with it being Kevin's birthday this weekend,
00:19:17I don't know why I would tell you I'd skip it and pick up.
00:19:22Yeah.
00:19:23It's all good. Don't worry about it.
00:19:26No, guys, I told you not to play with that when I'm not here.
00:19:29You leave it open, and it turns hard as rock.
00:19:32Sorry, Mom.
00:19:33Yeah, sorry, Mom.
00:19:37Kids, why don't you go upstairs and play for a little bit,
00:19:39and then we'll do dinner and donuts.
00:19:41Donuts?
00:19:42That's what I said.
00:19:43Okay, Mom.
00:19:44Go, go.
00:19:49I don't understand why this is such a big deal.
00:19:52It really shouldn't be.
00:19:55Okay, well, then what's wrong?
00:19:58Well, I had to leave work early to pick up the kids.
00:20:01No big deal, right?
00:20:02But then guess who calls 30 minutes later?
00:20:06Mr. Davis.
00:20:07And guess who's getting fired for cutting out early from work?
00:20:10Rod.
00:20:12Yep.
00:20:13Rod, I'm so sorry.
00:20:15I know you are.
00:20:16I know you are.
00:20:16It's just...
00:20:18It is what it is.
00:20:33You okay?
00:20:35I've been better.
00:20:46You know, I don't like working for other people.
00:20:51Look at this.
00:20:52I've got $2.7 million in the trust.
00:20:55That's up 30%.
00:20:57That's a lot, right?
00:20:59That's pretty damn good.
00:21:01And I've been reading up on investing.
00:21:03I can save us on commissions
00:21:06and do just as well if I start managing the account myself.
00:21:09I can cover our mortgage and all our expenses.
00:21:13Yeah, I mean, if that's what you think is best,
00:21:15I'm with you.
00:21:17Of course you are.
00:21:45This guy can throw the ball for 91.
00:21:47His curve, unhittable.
00:21:49And 400 on base.
00:21:50You should have been all state.
00:21:52Stop.
00:21:56Help me and the grill, Pete.
00:21:57I'll be right back.

00:22:23No, I got it.
00:22:23I'm just going to put...
00:22:24I said no!
00:22:27Kevin's cake!
00:22:28It's okay.
00:22:29We can salvage this.
00:22:31It's okay.
00:22:35Just a little grandma TLC.
00:22:37Thanks, Linda.

00:22:45Take a break.
00:22:47Pete, those burgers better not be burnt.
00:23:04Oh, hey.
00:23:06Uh, Nicole, from high school, right?
00:23:08You remembered.
00:23:10You remembered.
00:23:11I'm dating Tom Calloway.
00:23:12He's a friend of Rodney's, uh, from the baseball team.
00:23:16Yeah, sure.
00:23:17Rod loves his old baseball buddies.
00:23:21I love your place.
00:23:23I love your place.
00:23:23Did you decorate yourself?
00:23:25Uh, yeah, and painted and did the wallpaper in the bathrooms.
00:23:29Wow.
00:23:30Okay.
00:23:32Well, you have a real talent.
00:23:35Seriously.
00:23:37Do you mind if I take pictures, uh, for inspiration?
00:23:41Yeah, sure.
00:23:42And thank you.
00:23:43Yeah, I always wanted to get into design.
00:23:46Stuck selling renter's insurance right now, though.
00:23:50Really riveting step.
00:23:52Huh.
00:23:54Well, thanks.
00:23:57Happy birthday to you.
00:24:05You ready to do the release?
00:24:07Mm-hmm.
00:24:07Okay.
00:24:08Thank you, Mom.
00:24:14Ready?
00:24:15Yep.
00:24:33How are things, man?
00:24:34Like, for real?
00:24:42Um, well, Morgan...
00:24:47Well, it's just she's still on these pills.
00:24:51And, you know, she goes to therapy,
00:24:53which I used to think was a good idea.
00:24:57But now...
00:24:58I don't know.
00:24:59I mean, she says she wants to keep celebrating Kevin's birthday,
00:25:02but then...
00:25:04She shows up and she's a total mess.
00:25:07I...
00:25:10It's a lot.
00:25:13It's tough, dude.
00:25:14I'm sorry.
00:25:28Oh, hey, Kathy.
00:25:30That was very nice.
00:25:31Thank you for having us.
00:25:33Yeah, of course.
00:25:36I, of all people,
00:25:38know what it's like to lose a child.
00:25:43Anyway, I filled this up for you.
00:25:46I thought you might want to switch to water.
00:25:50Thanks.
00:25:53Morgan, we need to talk.
00:25:55Okay.
00:26:01What are you doing?
00:26:02I'm cleaning up.
00:26:05Can you stop for a second?
00:26:09Look, you show up late.
00:26:10You come in basically crying.
00:26:12You pick a fight with me.
00:26:14You're drinking too much.
00:26:15You're hanging all over my friends.
00:26:17What?
00:26:17Who isn't...
00:26:18I grew up.
00:26:20Okay?
00:26:20I expect you to do the same.
00:26:23Just stop acting like a crazy teenager.
00:26:25Just don't call me crazy.
00:26:27What was that?
00:26:29I said, don't call me crazy.
00:26:32You don't want me to call you crazy?
00:26:34Stop mixing wine and pills.
00:26:36Get off of me!
00:26:37Oh, my God.
00:26:38I'm so sorry.
00:26:40What the hell are you doing?
00:26:42Just go inside and sleep it off.
00:26:44I don't want the kids seeing you like this.
00:26:46Oh, my God.
00:26:56Morgan.
00:26:57Oh, my God.
00:27:04Whoa.
00:27:05She just hit me in the face with her water bottle.
00:27:09You need some ice, man?
00:27:11No, no.
00:27:11I'll be fine.
00:27:12I'm going to get you some ice.
00:27:13What the hell is wrong with her?
00:27:15It's okay.
00:27:16I heard she's resisted.
00:27:17It's been eight years ago.
00:27:18She's just acting like a crazy teenager.
00:27:20What?
00:27:26Why did Mom do that?
00:27:28Well, you know, sometimes when you guys act bad,
00:27:30and Mommy and Daddy say you can't do that,
00:27:33that's all it was.
00:27:34Mommy was just acting bad today.
00:27:36But don't worry.
00:27:37Daddy's here.
00:27:38I love you so much.
00:27:40One last hug.
00:27:42Okay.
00:27:42Under the covers.
00:27:44Lights out.
00:27:44No treat tomorrow.
00:27:46Let's go, buddy.
00:27:47Good night.
00:27:49Good night.
00:27:50Good night.
00:27:53Are the kids okay?
00:27:54Should I go in?
00:27:55They're fine.
00:27:57I don't know what happened.
00:27:58I didn't mean to...
00:27:59You hit me in the face.
00:28:00I didn't mean to.
00:28:01All I want from you is an apology.
00:28:06I'm sorry.
00:28:16I don't know.
00:28:17Can't you do this?
00:28:18We have to go with the surgery right away.
00:28:23Daddy, come on.
00:28:24She's asleep.
00:28:26She's asleep.
00:28:28I'm asleep.
00:28:29She's asleep.
00:28:30I'm asleep.
00:28:32She'll see me.
00:28:34Daddy, you were fine.
00:28:36Daddy, you were fine.
00:28:36You made her.
00:28:36You made her.
00:28:37I'm sorry.
00:28:44You made her.
00:28:46Hey! Morgan? You burned off those donuts? I thought they were for your kids.
00:28:56Ouch.
00:28:56Uh, um, yeah, no, I just, I hit myself when I was cleaning something, so...
00:29:02Ah. Hey, um, do you want to exchange numbers if I ever need some more advice or need a talk?
00:29:11It'll be the donut crisis hotline.
00:29:15Uh, yeah, sure.
00:29:19Yeah?
00:29:24Got you!
00:29:31Hey, guys.
00:29:32Hey, Mom!
00:29:34Hey, Rod.
00:29:37Is everything okay?
00:29:40Rodney.
00:29:41Huh? Uh, yeah.
00:29:44Yeah, all good.
00:29:47Oh!
00:29:48Hey!
00:29:49Hey, this isn't fair!
00:29:51Boom!
00:29:56Yeah.
00:29:58Do you want to tell me what's wrong? Maybe I can help.
00:30:05Sure. Let's see if you can help.
00:30:10Ah.
00:30:13So your trust account is overdrawn.
00:30:16Looks like there's interest.
00:30:18It means the money is gone. The trust is gone.
00:30:23How is that possible?
00:30:27Did you watch the news?
00:30:29Inflation, banks going under.
00:30:31The Fed's been raising rates like crazy, and we leveraged the trust to buy bonds back when rates were low.
00:30:37Now it's all, it's all just worthless.
00:30:40How does it, how does that even happen?
00:30:41You're not going to understand it, okay? The money is just gone.
00:30:44All right? It's, it's, it's, it's gone!
00:30:54Oh, we'll sell the house. I'll, I'll get a job. I mean, we'll figure it out, all right? We'll make
00:30:59it work.
00:31:00Uh-huh.
00:31:04Yeah.
00:31:21No.
00:31:27It's all right.
00:31:28Yeah.
00:31:29It's all right.
00:31:31You have a beautiful house. Thank you for inviting me into it. And I would love to turn
00:31:35your house into a home where I can help you create the perfect warm family space for your
00:31:40baby and the newlywed couple. So let me show you what I mean. This should be the nursery.
00:31:46You do not want to go up and down the stairs every time you have a wet diaper.
00:31:51And then down the road, you should transform this area to more of a mudroom. We could do
00:31:56lockers right there. I have twins. So whether it's soccer cleats or ballet shoes, you're
00:32:01going to need the space. And then I was thinking for the entryway, some runners, something durable
00:32:06though, something where you do not have to get down on your hands and knees to clean every
00:32:10month. And then the kitchen, I was thinking maybe more of a neutral palette with a backslash.
00:32:17All right. Now, if you're open to it, this color would be amazing in the entryway.
00:32:22Yes. And I mean, yes to working with you. I just, I love your vision for us and the house
00:32:29and let's do it. Don't you need to ask your husband?
00:32:33Oh, no. He trusts me with all things house and home.
00:32:37Amazing. Then I will get started right away. Great. We can find him.
00:32:54Morgan. Oh, hey, Nicole. Hey. Good to see you again.
00:32:58Nice to see you. Are you redoing your kitchen or?
00:33:01No, I actually started my own design company.
00:33:05You're kidding. That is incredible.
00:33:09Yeah, and pretty scary. I just landed my first big job, a starter home for a family coming
00:33:13from a New York apartment. So they don't have a stick of furniture and the house is totally
00:33:18bare. I pitched them on having this whole company and how I could handle it all, but it's just
00:33:24me. So.
00:33:26Well, you've done it before. I've seen your house, remember? So.
00:33:30Are you still selling insurance?
00:33:33I am. Yeah. Yeah, I am. Even though it is wildly, wildly mundane.
00:33:41Would you want to work for me?
00:33:46Me? What? Me? You're serious?
00:33:49Yeah.
00:33:53Yes, I would. Can I? Oh, my God.
00:33:55Oh, my God. When do I start? What?
00:33:57All right, and you're starting right now because I just, I don't. Okay, so this is the palp
00:34:00that I was wearing for.
00:34:12Hey, did you get a message?
00:34:15No, I've been working out. What's up?
00:34:16Babe, I won. I won it.
00:34:19Oh, hon, that's great.
00:34:19This one's bubble is so lovely. And the house, I mean, it's completely bare, but I mean, it's
00:34:24got natural light. There's an open floor plan.
00:34:26Hey, I actually have some good news, too. There's this equity firm in Dallas, and they're
00:34:33going to fly me in for an interview.
00:34:35Rodney! Oh, my gosh. That's terrific. And you are so incredibly sweaty. But I don't even
00:34:40care because I'm so proud of you.
00:34:43There's one thing. The interview's on Valentine's Day, so I would have to cancel our dinner.
00:34:50Okay. Yeah. No, that's good.
00:34:52Yeah? And you can watch the kids for a few days?
00:34:54Yeah. Yes. Yes. I can juggle the kids and the new job. Plus, I've got Nicole working
00:35:00for me now, too, so it'll help.
00:35:02Oh. You hired someone?
00:35:04Yeah. Your buddy Tom, his ex-girlfriend. All right. I'm going to get dinner started for
00:35:08the kids.
00:35:08Wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:35:13Mmm. Thank you.
00:35:17Oh.
00:35:19Babe, the kids are just right inside.
00:35:21Let's celebrate.
00:35:22Let's celebrate.
00:35:26Okay, we'll just make it quick.
00:35:33Oh, Mason, come on. Please don't eat from there. All right, give me 15 minutes and I'll
00:35:37have some dinner ready for you guys.
00:35:39Let's just order pizza!
00:35:41Yay!
00:35:42I love pizza!
00:35:43Can I have cheese, please?
00:35:45Can I have sausage, please?
00:35:46Sorry, guys. Your mom was too much of a horndog to make anything tonight.
00:35:50What's a horndog?
00:35:51I'll tell you when you're 18.
00:36:17Shit. Shit. Shit.
00:36:20I'll tell you.
00:36:21Shit.
00:36:22Shit.
00:36:22Shit.
00:36:45I like the gray one.
00:36:46It looks good on you.
00:36:48You like a man in a suit, huh?
00:36:54What else do you like?
00:36:55I'm not really in the mood, babe.
00:36:57That's not what I'm getting from you.
00:36:59Rod, we just did it, okay?
00:37:00And hey, I don't like you talking like that in front of the kids.
00:37:02Oh, come on.
00:37:04Don't play coy.
00:37:06You know you like it when we mess around in the middle of the day.
00:37:09Right?
00:37:11We're in the car.
00:37:12I'm serious.
00:37:16Okay, fine.
00:37:17Pretend all you want.
00:37:18I actually have something serious I want to talk about, too.
00:37:22I know I'm going to be gone for Valentine's Day.
00:37:26But I did get you something.
00:37:33Rod.
00:37:34I'm going to be gone for a few days.
00:37:35You need to be able to protect yourself.
00:37:37We have kids.
00:37:37Come on, I don't want a gun in our house.
00:37:39Calm down.
00:37:40It has a trigger lock.
00:37:41It's fine.
00:37:43I need you and the kids safe, no matter what.
00:37:49Okay, fine.
00:37:54You're welcome.
00:37:56Rod, I said I wasn't in the mood.
00:37:59Rodney, I said I...
00:38:00Rodney.
00:38:01I don't...
00:38:04What are you doing?
00:38:06Rodney?
00:38:07Rodney.
00:38:08I don't...
00:38:10I don't...
00:38:39Okay, I think this palette is going to work really nicely together.
00:38:42So these.
00:38:43Oh, yeah, definitely.
00:38:44I like that.
00:38:45Let's try for the living room.
00:38:49Do you ever treat yourself?
00:38:54Like a new car, maybe?
00:38:56Or, okay, a fancy dress?
00:39:00Or a trip to Italy?
00:39:02You know, whatever.
00:39:03Yeah, okay.
00:39:04Oh, my gosh.
00:39:05Well, your business is killing it, so you should do something nice.
00:39:10Something for you.
00:39:11I mean, I would love a new purse.
00:39:14There you go.
00:39:15Something designer.
00:39:16Okay.
00:39:18That I buy with my own money.
00:39:22I've never done that before.
00:39:24Like, ever, really?
00:39:27Is that bad?
00:39:27I just, I've never had a job that paid that much.
00:39:29And Rod, he's from Family Money, so he was always in charge of the big purchases.
00:39:34But he never treats any of his stuff nicely.
00:39:38I guess when you're from money, you just expect that money is always going to be there.
00:39:41And then when it's not...
00:39:44Anyways, it's just...
00:39:46It's just been hard for him.
00:39:49Yeah, but you make great money now, right?
00:39:51I mean, isn't he happy about that?
00:39:55Yeah.
00:39:57Yeah, he is.
00:40:05Morgan.
00:40:07Is Rod...
00:40:08Hey!
00:40:09There he is.
00:40:11Did they love you in Dallas?
00:40:13Don't.
00:40:14What's wrong?
00:40:17This was in our mailbox.
00:40:22Know anything about this?
00:40:24I have no idea.
00:40:26This is a threat.
00:40:28You understand that, right?
00:40:29Rod, I said I don't know.
00:40:30Why else would somebody write this?
00:40:33Maybe it was a joke.
00:40:35It could have been an accident.
00:40:36They could have put that in the wrong way.
00:40:37Could you give us some privacy, please?
00:40:38Rodney.
00:40:39I'm serious.
00:40:44Yeah.
00:40:54Are you being unfaithful?
00:40:55Of course not.
00:41:45We got a letter from the credit card company.
00:41:47Did you happen to take out a second card?
00:41:50It said there's already $7,000 on it.
00:41:52I bought some new tools for the carpentry business, remember?
00:41:56Your entrepreneurial spirit inspired me to start my own business.
00:42:00Yeah, right. I just don't remember us talking about a second card.
00:42:09Aren't you proud of me, honey?
00:42:12Rodney.
00:42:13You know, you didn't consult me when you hired Nicole.
00:42:16I'm being proactive.
00:42:18Yes, you are.
00:42:20Look, if you want to see every little receipt,
00:42:23I can bring out the itemized bill right now.
00:42:24Rodney, that's fine.
00:42:26No, Rodney, stop.
00:42:28No, no, no. You want to see your receipts.
00:42:29It's good. Smart.
00:42:30You want to see your receipts, that's good business.
00:42:32Rodney, stop. Never mind, okay?
00:42:36There's something more important anyway.
00:42:39I found a bag in the bathroom.
00:42:42It had steroids in it.
00:42:44Rod, that stuff's dangerous.
00:42:47Morgan. Steroids. Come on. You know I'm diabetic.
00:42:51I know what your insulin looks like. This was different.
00:42:58You don't know what you're talking about.
00:43:01Rodney, we need to discuss this.
00:43:14Don't you dare emasculate me like that in front of the kids.
00:43:17Rodney.
00:43:17Look, I've been dealing with so much, and I've been shouldering it alone this whole time.
00:43:21The threatening letters, this new job, taking care of the kids because you're never around.
00:43:26You? I pick them up from school. I do their homework. I cook their meals. I take them to baseball.
00:43:31Oh, please, you're out there doing God knows what. Or more like, doing God knows who.
00:43:36Rodney!
00:43:37Look at you. I'm glad Kevin isn't here to see what his mother's become.
00:43:40Oh, no, no. No, you don't. No, you don't. You do not get to unload on me and then just
00:43:44walk away like that.
00:43:46Really? That's how low you're stooping, Kevin?
00:43:49Look, you want to start itemizing things? How about your new little credit card bill?
00:43:53Because it's not just tools, Rodney. It's movies and drinks and nights out with your baseball friends.
00:43:57It's none of your business.
00:43:58It's my money. It's my business.
00:43:59Oh, shut up. When I brought home the paycheck, I never would have said anything like that to you.
00:44:03Do you think I'm an idiot, Rodney? Seriously, Rodney, do you think I'm an idiot?
00:44:26Rodney, are you okay?
00:44:27What the hell's wrong with you?
00:44:30Me?
00:44:31You're trying to kill me?
00:44:35Daddy, are you okay?
00:44:37It's okay. It's okay. Daddy's okay. Mommy didn't mean to push me. She's just upset, okay?
00:44:49Hey.
00:44:52Hey.
00:44:52Oh, my God. She said we love this.
00:44:55Let't sit.
00:44:56Why table, praise, boy.
00:44:58That was great, love.
00:45:00You're giving me a lie.
00:45:03It's amazing.
00:45:04Sheldon, are you kidding me?
00:45:06If you were in there,
00:45:11Oh, Mom, Dad, what are you...
00:45:14Can we come in?
00:45:16How are you doing, honey?
00:45:34Can I get you anything?
00:45:38What?
00:45:45We know about the fight.
00:45:53We know things in marriage can be hard.
00:45:57Couples fight, but, um...
00:46:00But pushing them down the stairs?
00:46:04Honey, that is not how we raised you.
00:46:11Wait, what?
00:46:15I'm...
00:46:16I can't.
00:46:18Richard?
00:46:21Rod came over this morning.
00:46:23He's very concerned about himself, but also for the kids.
00:46:30You're not violent with them.
00:46:32No, are you?
00:46:33Why is everyone on his side?
00:46:34I would never do that.
00:46:36You know that.
00:46:37And Rod, he...
00:46:39Do you even want to hear my side of the story?
00:46:41We didn't raise a liar, either.
00:46:44What?
00:46:45Rodney showed us the security footage.
00:46:47Seriously, Rodney, do you think I'm an idiot?
00:47:16I'm an idiot.
00:47:17I'm cleaning up.
00:47:19Morgan, come on.
00:47:21Have you been able to use them for any new work?
00:47:26It's tough out there, okay?
00:47:29How long are you going to pursue it, Rodney?
00:47:32What is this?
00:47:34Are you coming down on me because I haven't been able to find a job?
00:47:38Morgan, I have been out there every day submitting resumes.
00:47:42I'm talking to friends, colleagues.
00:47:44I'm on message boards.
00:47:45I even asked your dad for a job.
00:47:49Do you understand how that makes me feel?
00:47:53Why did you send him the video?
00:47:57Because I'm worried about you, Morgan.
00:48:00You've been violent, erratic, unfaithful.
00:48:05Rodney, I have never cheated on you. Never.
00:48:08So why would you set me up like that with my parents?
00:48:10Look, I didn't mean to hurt you.
00:48:14It's on camera.
00:48:16But that's not...
00:48:19I never intended to hurt you. You know that.
00:48:27No one is going to believe you.
00:48:30Everyone we know is friends with me, not you.
00:48:34And if you ever try to leave me, they'll never let you keep the kids.
00:48:41Never.
00:48:52Yeah, I like that.
00:48:54That's nice.
00:48:55Ooh.
00:48:56What about this for the Allens?
00:48:58No, it's not upscale enough for what Jerry's looking for.
00:49:00She wants solids, whites, off creams.
00:49:02Um, elegant without being too showy.
00:49:05Yeah.
00:49:06Yeah.
00:49:09Oh, what about that?
00:49:11Is that elegant enough?
00:49:16Yes.
00:49:17Exactly.
00:49:22Oh, no.
00:49:24What?
00:49:25Oh.
00:49:27Come on.
00:49:29Come on.
00:49:29You deserve it.
00:49:31Just pick it up.
00:49:32Just try it.
00:49:34Just pick it up.
00:49:38She's cute.
00:49:39Oh, she's so cute.
00:49:41Okay.
00:49:41Okay.
00:49:43Yep.
00:49:51You guys almost done with your homework?
00:49:53Yeah.
00:49:54Yep.
00:50:11Nice bag.
00:50:13Looks expensive.
00:50:15For new clients this month, we can afford a little luxury.
00:50:23How many glasses is that?
00:50:27It's apple cider.
00:50:30Mm-hmm.
00:50:34Who is Griff Walker?
00:50:36He's a friend from therapy.
00:50:38Why?
00:50:40A friend with a criminal record.
00:50:43Interesting choice.
00:50:46Oh, you didn't know that?
00:50:49What is this?
00:50:50Have you been looking through my phone?
00:50:52No, I didn't need to.
00:50:54I just needed to look at my phone.
00:50:56I was sitting here in my house with my kids, minding my own business,
00:51:00when I get this email.
00:51:07It's not Griff.
00:51:08He's not like that.
00:51:10Booming business.
00:51:11New purse.
00:51:13New man.
00:51:14Rod, not here.
00:51:15Please.
00:51:16When were you planning to tell all of us that you'd moved on?
00:51:19Griff is just a guy who lost his wife.
00:51:21Look, I barely know him.
00:51:22There's no affair.
00:51:23There never was.
00:51:24I can't trust you.
00:51:26Of course you can trust me.
00:51:27No.
00:51:28The signs were there all along.
00:51:29The drinking.
00:51:30The pills.
00:51:30You disappearing all day from me and the kids.
00:51:33I'm at work.
00:51:35Work?
00:51:36Your little interior design business?
00:51:39That's what you call a job?
00:51:41Give me a break.
00:51:42You're not a mother to these children anymore.
00:51:44You're not even a wife to me.
00:51:46I didn't choose this.
00:51:48Someone needed to make money.
00:51:50Oh, so now you're the victim.
00:51:52The cheater is the victim.
00:51:56Kids, clear the table.
00:51:57Dinner's ready.
00:51:58Okay.
00:52:21Trauma is real.
00:52:23When we suffer from trauma, we can sometimes find ourselves inviting in people.
00:52:28People who don't have our best interests at heart.
00:52:33Today I want to talk about narcissists.
00:52:36Personalities who have an excessive interest in their own appearance.
00:52:40Their own control over the world.
00:52:43They are entitled, lacking empathy.
00:52:46They lash out when threatened.
00:52:50Nothing is ever their fault.
00:52:53Bad outcomes are always the symptom of something someone else did.
00:52:57A narcissist has this compulsion for control.
00:53:05Sometimes the only way to handle a narcissist is to give them that control they so desperately desire.
00:53:12Lend it to them.
00:53:13For the short term.
00:53:15But do so knowing that the control you're giving them is only in their minds and not in yours.
00:53:36Oh, sorry.
00:53:37Sorry, I didn't mean to startle you.
00:53:40I didn't see you in group.
00:53:41Oh, I snuck in late.
00:53:43The kids have been so busy with school and sports.
00:53:46It's hard to find the time.
00:53:49Uh-huh.
00:53:50Um, look, I don't mean to sound crazy, but did you happen to write my husband Rodney an email?
00:53:59Your husband?
00:54:01Yeah, um, did you tell him to back off so we could be together?
00:54:07Hmm.
00:54:11So you put the letter in the mailbox too?
00:54:15You serious?
00:54:16Well, did you?
00:54:19Morgan, I didn't email your husband.
00:54:21And I haven't written a letter by hand in, I don't know, ten years?
00:54:25Listen, I thought we could help each other, but whatever's going on between you and your husband, just leave me
00:54:33out of it.
00:54:49Hey.
00:54:52Sorry, I am so sorry.
00:54:54Save your breath.
00:54:55They are long gone.
00:54:57Sorry.
00:54:58Don't be.
00:55:00We have a new client.
00:55:03I knew it, I knew it.
00:55:05I always said confidence is key.
00:55:07And look at that.
00:55:08You have it.
00:55:08You are the best.
00:55:10No, you are the best.
00:55:12Yes.
00:55:16Okay, I've gotta ask.
00:55:21What is going on with you?
00:55:23You've been really...
00:55:25off.
00:55:29No, I'm good.
00:55:30It's just...
00:55:31You know, with kids and sports and...
00:55:40Wasn't Rodney in...
00:55:42Dallas for Valentine's?
00:55:51I'm really sorry.
00:55:55No, it...
00:55:57It must be the wrong year.
00:56:00Morgan...
00:56:03He is not a good partner.
00:56:04Okay?
00:56:05I'm sorry, but...
00:56:06Someone needs to say it.
00:56:09It's...
00:56:11It's...
00:56:12It's...
00:56:12complicated.
00:56:13Yeah.
00:56:15Yeah, I know.
00:56:16But it's also really simple.
00:56:18Okay?
00:56:18He's full of it.
00:56:19And he...
00:56:20He doesn't treat you well.
00:56:26I don't even know who I am anymore.
00:56:28I am a horrible mom.
00:56:31I am a horrible wife.
00:56:32No, don't say that.
00:56:33No, that's not true.
00:56:34You don't know what I've done.
00:56:35Look, you don't get it, alright?
00:56:37I...
00:56:38I pushed him down the stairs.
00:56:40What?
00:56:40I hit him.
00:56:42What?
00:56:43I did it at Kevin's birthday party.
00:56:45I hit him.
00:56:48Morgan...
00:56:48Morgan, please, you just don't get it, alright?
00:56:52No.
00:56:53Mm-mm.
00:56:55Okay, I do not need to relive that any more than I already did, okay?
00:56:58No.
00:56:59No, Morgan.
00:57:00That is not what happened.
00:57:05Get off of me!
00:57:07Get off!
00:57:12What was that?
00:57:13I said,
00:57:14don't call me crazy.
00:57:17You don't want me to call you crazy?
00:57:19Stop mixing wine and pills.
00:57:21Get off of me!
00:57:23Get off me!
00:57:31You hit me.
00:57:32Now get inside and don't make a scene.
00:57:39I never would have said anything like that to you.
00:57:41You think I'm an idiot, Rodney?
00:57:44Ah!
00:57:47Ah!
00:57:57Reg?
00:57:59Rod, are you okay?
00:58:01What the hell are you doing?
00:58:03Me?
00:58:04Are you trying to kill me?
00:58:05Daddy!
00:58:06Are you okay?
00:58:08Yeah, it's fine. I'm fine.
00:58:09It's okay.
00:58:09Mommy, we didn't mean to push me.
00:58:11Okay?
00:58:11She's just upset.
00:58:30Guys, you're going to be sick.
00:58:34You're so strong, okay?
00:59:05You're so strong, okay?
00:59:10Maybe run up to the hall.
00:59:15Rod, you should go.
00:59:17I need to talk to my husband.
00:59:28Why?
00:59:32What?
00:59:33There's piss all over my purse.
00:59:37Maybe the cat pissed on him.
00:59:39For once in your life, stop lying.
00:59:46Oh, yeah.
00:59:47Yeah, so that's cat piss.
00:59:50I don't know.
00:59:51Maybe.
00:59:51Yeah, maybe.
00:59:53Maybe like how you lost your jobs.
00:59:55What are you talking about?
00:59:57It's always someone else's fault, isn't it, Rodney?
01:00:00Oh, I got another one.
01:00:02Remember when you went to Dallas for an interview over Valentine's Day?
01:00:06Or did you?
01:00:07Maybe instead, you spent the weekend playing golf.
01:00:13Oh, I'm such a fool.
01:00:16For all these years, you had me convinced that I was the broken one, the crazy one, the drunk
01:00:21one, the one who wouldn't move on from the memory of our son, the one who acted like a
01:00:26child and needed to grow up.
01:00:28That I was bad.
01:00:30Okay.
01:00:31So this is all my fault now.
01:00:34You know, Morgan, this is why marriages fail.
01:00:38Because you move on and you leave all of us behind.
01:00:41You go out and get your fancy new job and your new man.
01:00:46Please tell me, do you even care about this family anymore?
01:00:50You are still behaving like a child.
01:00:53This is your fault.
01:00:54It's not your fault.
01:00:56What?
01:00:57It's yours.
01:00:59Are you turning my own children against me, you ungrateful...
01:01:03Go away!
01:01:04Shut up, you little brat!
01:01:05Hey, no!
01:01:06You do not touch him and you do not get to talk to any of us like that anymore.
01:01:12Oh, yeah?
01:01:13Yeah.
01:01:13Or what?
01:01:15I want a divorce.
01:01:22Let's go, let's go.
01:01:23Let's get in the car.
01:01:25Come on, baby girl.
01:01:25Hustle up.
01:01:30All right, come on.
01:01:30Let's go.
01:01:31In the car.
01:01:33Here.
01:01:34Get in, baby.
01:01:37Morgan, stop!
01:01:39Morgan, don't do this.
01:01:40Rodney, stop.
01:01:41Don't do this.
01:01:41No, no, no.
01:01:42Rodney, please, stop.
01:01:42No, no, no.
01:01:43Come back inside.
01:01:43Let's talk about this.
01:01:45Stop this.
01:01:45Please, don't leave me.
01:01:46Rodney, we're done.
01:01:48Please, we're done.
01:01:50Don't do this.
01:02:24Oh, nice.
01:02:26Ooh, it's so good to eat it.
01:02:30It's so bad.
01:02:33It's so bad.
01:02:36Ah!
01:02:39Oh, it's cold.
01:02:41Amelia!
01:02:44Oh, my gosh, Mason, do not eat that.
01:02:47That frosting is like blue.
01:02:51It's okay.
01:03:00Come on in.
01:03:02Come on in.
01:03:09Hey, guys.
01:03:11Merry late Christmas.
01:03:12Merry Christmas, Dad!
01:03:14Hi, buddy.
01:03:15Hi, buddy.
01:03:16You guys ready for a road trip?
01:03:17Aunt Lizzie's is so far away.
01:03:21Well, maybe these will help.
01:03:22No way!
01:03:23This is amazing, Dad.
01:03:25The batteries are charged and ready to go.
01:03:27Thank you, Dad!
01:03:30I will go get the kids' stuff.
01:03:40Hey, one, two, three, four, shirts.
01:03:46You know I could fix that floorboard?
01:03:48No.
01:03:50That's okay.
01:03:50I actually like it.
01:03:52It lets me know when the kids try to sneak downstairs to get ice cream.
01:03:55Hmm.
01:03:57Rodney seems, um, normal-ish.
01:04:01Yeah.
01:04:01No, he's been really great, actually.
01:04:04It's his week with the twins,
01:04:05but when my sister called asking if they could visit for Christmas,
01:04:08he gave up his time so they could go.
01:04:11Hmm.
01:04:13And you're going on this drive with him to Florida?
01:04:17Uh-huh.
01:04:19And after you drop off the kids,
01:04:21Rod is driving you back?
01:04:28Are you sure you want to be alone with him for two hours?
01:04:32He's turned over a new leaf.
01:04:33I'm okay to...
01:04:35It'll be good for us.
01:04:37Yeah.
01:04:44You want me to get this?
01:04:46Yeah.
01:04:47Thanks.
01:04:49Mm-hmm.
01:05:07It looks like your business has been doing really well.
01:05:09I see your ads on Facebook all the time.
01:05:13Yeah, it's been great.
01:05:18I'm proud of you.
01:05:26I'm...
01:05:27I'm glad you're good, T-Rod.
01:05:29It's okay.
01:05:29You don't have to...
01:05:30I have to say that.
01:05:31No, I mean, really.
01:05:31I mean, you've...
01:05:32You've cleaned up.
01:05:33You've been nice to the kids.
01:05:35I'm really happy you're thriving.
01:05:38I'm really happy you're thriving.
01:05:49Thank you again for driving.
01:05:52Um, I'd like to get the kids through the first week of school after break, but I, uh, I could
01:05:57give them back the second.
01:06:00It might be better if you just keep them through January.
01:06:06Is everything okay?
01:06:09I'm not...
01:06:11I'm not okay.
01:06:15You know, you can still tell me anything.
01:06:23I have cancer.
01:06:26Pancreatic cancer.
01:06:33It's stage three and two, and the doctors say it's still confined to the pancreas, but the tumor's grown, and
01:06:44it's spread into the lymph nodes.
01:06:52I'm not gonna beat it.
01:06:54No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:06:57It's okay.
01:06:58You're gonna be okay.
01:07:00I'm so sorry.
01:07:02I should have been a better father and a better husband.
01:07:08It's okay.
01:07:17Yep.
01:07:18I'm sorry I lost it like that.
01:07:20No, it's...
01:07:21It's okay.
01:07:24Hey, you should know, um, I put my affairs in order.
01:07:29I don't have a lot, but you and the kids will collect all my insurance.
01:07:32Please, don't give up like that.
01:07:34Look, there's chemo, surgery, radiation.
01:07:37Rodney, you can beat this.
01:07:40You were always so positive.
01:07:44Even when we lost Kevin.
01:07:47It was a disaster.
01:07:49No.
01:07:50You took it head on.
01:07:52I just hid from it.
01:07:56Well, we've been through a lot, so...
01:08:00Yeah.
01:08:04Hey, um...
01:08:06Do you think maybe if the chemo and radiation and stuff all works,
01:08:14maybe you and I could work, too?
01:08:20Rod, I'm here for you.
01:08:23Through it all.
01:08:27But only as a friend.
01:08:31Good night.
01:08:32Good night.
01:08:39Good night.
01:08:44Good night.
01:08:47Good night.
01:08:51Good night.
01:08:52I don't know.
01:09:40I don't know.
01:09:53I don't know.
01:10:43I don't know.
01:10:58I don't know.
01:11:39I don't know.
01:12:04I don't know.
01:12:23I don't know.
01:12:38I don't know.
01:12:41Where is your husband?
01:12:42I don't know.
01:13:02Please, please, please, don't kill him, Hussle.
01:13:03Please, please, I love him more than anything, please.
01:13:06I love him more than anything.
01:13:07Please don't kill him.
01:13:08Please.
01:13:08Please, please, please, please, please.
01:13:09You love him?
01:13:11Of course, of course I do.
01:13:13I love him so much.
01:13:14Please.
01:13:15You love him?
01:13:16Yes.
01:13:17Please.
01:13:18Don't kill him.
01:13:19Please.
01:13:22Where's your jewelry?
01:13:23I don't know.
01:13:25I don't know.
01:13:30I love you.
01:13:35All right.
01:13:57Please, you don't have to do this.
01:14:12Please, help me.
01:14:19Please, help me.
01:14:21Please, help me.
01:14:45Don't move until you hear a horn honk three times, or I'll kill you.
01:14:50I'll kill you.
01:15:05Logan, no problem.
01:15:09Honey, it's okay.
01:15:10You're safe.
01:15:11I'm here.
01:15:12I'm right here.
01:15:20There.
01:15:21Is that better?
01:15:24When I find out who did this, I'm gonna kill him.
01:15:27I'm just glad you got here when you did.
01:15:30Yeah, me too.
01:15:34Can I have your phone?
01:15:35I wanna call my dad.
01:15:36Yeah, of course.
01:15:40We should call the police too.
01:15:43Yeah, good idea.
01:15:47Woohoo!
01:16:01Good evening, Rodney Metzer.
01:16:03Yes, sir.
01:16:04I was the one that called.
01:16:06We were told there was a break-in?
01:16:08Yes, there was.
01:16:10But, you know, everything's fine now.
01:16:12We're okay.
01:16:14Thanks for being here so quickly.
01:16:16Yeah, well, can you tell us a little more about what happened?
01:16:19Yeah, sure, of course.
01:16:21It's just, you know, everything's calmed down now.
01:16:26Or, you know, it's late.
01:16:28Uh, we're safe now.
01:16:31What was that?
01:16:34I don't know.
01:16:40I'm sorry.
01:16:41I was, um, I was trying to stand.
01:16:43I'm still just a little bit woozy.
01:16:46Jeez.
01:16:46Rick, call medical.
01:16:47And a detective.
01:16:48We need them right away.
01:16:50Yeah.
01:16:50And, uh, can you sweep the exterior just in case?
01:16:52Yeah.
01:16:53I'm sorry, ma'am.
01:16:54We did not understand how serious this was.
01:16:56Yeah, uh, um, someone broke in.
01:17:00She was attacked, but we're okay now.
01:17:08Ma'am, can you tell me anything else?
01:17:12I was in the bedroom.
01:17:14He was, um, wearing a mask.
01:17:18Um, he had a gun.
01:17:20I think, I think it was my gun.
01:17:25He assaulted me.
01:17:28Yeah.
01:17:29Uh, when I got here, she was on the deck, terrified.
01:17:34And, um, I must have scared them off just in time.
01:17:38I, I, I don't know where they went.
01:17:41So you were not here during the attack?
01:17:44Oh, no, no.
01:17:45I don't, I don't live here.
01:17:46We're separated.
01:17:51I understand.
01:17:53But, it's a good thing I got here when I did.
01:17:54Otherwise, who knows what could have happened.
01:17:58Jones, there's no sign of anyone on the property.
01:18:01Basement door is open, though.
01:18:03Mr. Metzer, why don't you go with Officer McLaughlin?
01:18:05Show him where you found Ms. Metzer.
01:18:07I really want to stay.
01:18:08Now, please, you can take him through everything, moment by moment.
01:18:10It will help us tremendously.
01:18:13Yeah, of course.
01:18:24Ma'am, you can talk to me.
01:18:26Do you know who did this?
01:18:34Is he still on?
01:18:35I don't know.
01:18:37I don't know.
01:18:38I don't know.
01:18:38He might be.
01:18:38He might be.
01:18:39Okay.
01:18:41Wait right here.
01:18:44Like I said, if I hadn't got here, who knows what might have happened.
01:18:49I was very brave, Mr. Metzer.
01:18:52You have any idea who might have done this?
01:18:55Oh, actually, yeah.
01:18:58Before the divorce, there was this guy, Griff Walker.
01:19:01He was obsessed with Morgan.
01:19:04He would call and text her all the time.
01:19:06And then it got worse.
01:19:08He sent some threats in the mail.
01:19:09He even emailed me and told me to leave her.
01:19:13Really?
01:19:14Do you still have these emails?
01:19:16Oh.
01:19:18Yeah, that's it right there.
01:19:22Sick bastard.
01:19:24Can I hold on to this?
01:19:25Yeah, definitely.
01:19:26I want to give this to the detectives when they get here.
01:19:30Can you take us upstairs to the bedroom?
01:19:32Yeah.
01:19:33Sure.
01:19:36You know, you two go on up.
01:19:37I'm right behind you.
01:19:38I'm going to send this right away.
01:20:04It's good.
01:20:11I don't know.
01:20:12I'm going to send this back in.
01:20:12I think we're going to send it.
01:20:12It's okay.
01:20:12I don't know if I'm going to send it.
01:20:12We're in the air.
01:20:12I don't know if I'm going to leave you an air.
01:20:12I got the air in the air.
01:20:13I gotta hold it down.
01:20:14I got the air in the air.
01:20:14It's okay.
01:20:19I got the air in the air.
01:20:33I thought you were taking us upstairs.
01:20:35Yeah, yeah, I just need to be with Morgan right now.
01:20:41Of course.
01:20:44How about you and I go up?
01:20:46And Rick here can keep her company.
01:20:48No, she's scared.
01:20:50I think she needs me, okay?
01:20:52It's okay, I can go up there with you.
01:20:55You sure?
01:20:57Yeah.
01:20:59I'm good.
01:21:10I guess the guy tried to rob the place, too.
01:21:13You'll have to ask Morgan about jewelry and stuff.
01:21:17Yeah, he didn't.
01:21:19He didn't take much.
01:21:21Don't worry, man.
01:21:22We're gonna get this guy.
01:21:25I'm just glad you arrived when you did, sir.
01:21:28Yeah, me too.
01:21:30Otherwise, my kids might not have a mother right now.
01:21:34Isn't that a terrible thought?
01:21:37How did you even think to come here tonight?
01:21:42Uh, well, I was at my place, and I got this strange call.
01:21:49Just breathing on the other end of the line.
01:21:52And I got this weird feeling, and I just felt like I had to come check on her.
01:22:04Whoa, whoa, whoa, what are you doing, man?
01:22:06Metzer, you have the right to remain silent.
01:22:08Are you serious?
01:22:09Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law.
01:22:12No, no, this is not right.
01:22:13You have the right to an attorney.
01:22:14If you cannot afford one, one will be provided for you.
01:22:16You understand the rights of this place to you.
01:22:18Morgan!
01:22:20Nod if you understand.
01:22:23Nod.
01:22:25I got it.
01:22:52All right, all right.
01:23:04How do you plead?
01:23:08Guilty.
01:23:09Excuse me?
01:23:11Louder, please.
01:23:13Guilty.
01:23:14I'm guilty.
01:23:17All right.
01:23:18I will accept a plea of guilty.
01:23:20Do you have anything you'd like to add?
01:23:24Yes.
01:23:26I, um, I just want to say I'm sorry.
01:23:35I fell down this dark path, but I love my wife.
01:23:46I love her, and I never meant to, I never meant to hurt her.
01:23:57Miss Metzer, I understand you have a statement you'd like to share with the court today.
01:24:02Yes, Your Honor.
01:24:17Not only will the statement be to my attacker, it will be my last words to the man I once
01:24:25thought was the love of my life.
01:24:30Rodney, love does not emotionally abuse.
01:24:36Love does not break into your home in the middle of the night.
01:24:42Love does not strike you countless times with a gun, tie you up, and strangle you.
01:24:50Love does not sexually assault you.
01:24:56Love does not leave you outside with a pillowcase over your head, wondering if you are ever going to see
01:25:03your children again.
01:25:07I gave you my heart and soul, and you tried to destroy them.
01:25:12And here's what I have to say in response.
01:25:34Thank you for the gift of my children.
01:25:40Even though you are a monster, my heart aches that our children will not have a father.
01:25:49This attack wasn't just a trauma.
01:25:51It was a blessing in disguise.
01:25:56Rodney, it is time to let you go and lay you down to rest.
01:26:14I can now walk with confidence, knowing that the pain you gave me has been turned into power.
01:26:21Hey, Mom.
01:26:22What's for a breakfast?
01:26:25Whatever you want, my little loves.
01:26:29And that I now know what true love is.
01:26:34It's how I feel about our kids.
01:26:38And how I feel about myself.
01:26:41To do love.
01:26:54I feel about myself.
01:27:11Once again, I know I know what true love.
