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.
00:02:47You can do this, baby.
00:02:48I know you can do this.
00:02:49OK, good.
00:02:50Now, push.
00:02:54Push.
00:02:55Good.
00:02:56Push, 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.
00:03:01You're doing it.
00:03:02The head is coming.
00:03:03Oh, Morgan, it's.
00:03:04I got him.
00:03:05I got him.
00:03:06Do you want to cut the cord?
00:03:08Yeah.
00:03:25OK, we do need to take him now.
00:03:34Can we just have a few minutes?
00:03:36I'm sorry.
00:03:36Do you remember what we talked about?
00:03:38Every minute matters.
00:03:42Yeah, OK.
00:04:02As we suspected from 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 from his left atrium to his heart.
00:04:20We have to go into surgery right away.
00:04:31You'll put it on him soon.
00:04:34Yeah.
00:04:45Hey, you know, you and me, we've been together
00:04:49since we were 14 years old.
00:04:53And right now we're being tested.
00:04:56But I want you to know that I'm going to take care of you.
00:05:01And we're going to be OK.
00:05:04No matter what.
00:05:15Mr. and Mrs. Metzer, I'm very sorry.
00:05:28You are my sunshine, my only sunshine.
00:05:33You make me happy when skies are gray.
00:05:40You'll never know, dear, how much I love you.
00:05:45So please don't take my sunshine away.
00:05:51So please don't take my sunshine away.
00:05:54You are my sunshine, my only sunshine.
00:06:01You make me happy when skies are gray.
00:06:08You'll never know, dear, how much I love you.
00:06:14So please don't take my sunshine away.
00:06:21So please don't take my sunshine away.
00:06:51I'll take care of our folks when they get here.
00:06:55You want to go upstairs and rest?
00:07:13Sorry, is she, is she doing OK?
00:07:17She just needs her hand.
00:07:18She's upstairs.
00:07:19OK.
00:07:22Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry.
00:07:25It's not right, Rodney.
00:07:27It's not right.
00:07:29It's not right.
00:07:30I'm going to rest your mother.
00:07:31No, no, no, no.
00:07:57It's not right.
00:08:00I'm not right, let's go.
00:08:08It looks like her birthday, mom is going to be there.
00:08:10I totally notice her birthday with her daughter's
00:08:39Hey, hon.
00:08:39Smells great.
00:08:41Well, it better, because I had to start over twice.
00:08:46So how was your run this morning?
00:08:48It was good.
00:08:50Enlightening.
00:08:51Or at least trying to make it enlightening.
00:08:53Oh, yeah?
00:08:54Yes.
00:08:54And actually something I want to talk to you about.
00:09:00Uh, yeah, me too.
00:09:02And I have some news.
00:09:04It's not the good kind.
00:09:06Okay, you first.
00:09:09Apparently, Daniel has been holding it against me
00:09:12that I missed so much time from work after the hospital.
00:09:18And he fired me.
00:09:19What?
00:09:22That's what I said, but there's no HR at the car lot,
00:09:26so there's not really anything I can do
00:09:28unless we want to hire an attorney
00:09:30and go through the expense of all that.
00:09:33But you needed me here, so whatever.
00:09:36Screw that guy.
00:09:37Well, what are we going to do about money?
00:09:41Well, I'll get another job.
00:09:44You know, I always thought I could be good at interior design,
00:09:47so maybe now I could start that.
00:09:49Babe, come here.
00:09:51I got you.
00:09:52Main of the house, remember?
00:09:53Mm-hmm.
00:09:55Besides, I think you need a degree for any decent job in design.
00:09:58But don't worry, it's okay.
00:10:00We have plenty of dough in the trust fund.
00:10:02We're going to be fine.
00:10:05Oh.
00:10:06Anyway, what was your thing about?
00:10:09Oh, um, I just hope you like my new cranberry sauce.
00:10:16Must be a heck of a sauce.
00:10:17Let's try it.
00:10:37Hey, honey.
00:10:39Yeah?
00:10:40There is, uh, something I want to talk about.
00:10:45Sure what?
00:10:49Uh, it's kind of a big thing.
00:11:05Oh.
00:11:06I 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, we at least, we owe ourselves that.
00:12:01You sure you're ready?
00:12:05Mm-hmm.
00:12:07Okay.
00:12:32Five more minutes.
00:12:38Mm-hmm.
00:12:40Mom!
00:12:41Amelia, you took my spaceman!
00:12:43Mason won't share with me.
00:12:44You never share anything with me!
00:12:47Not your dad.
00:12:47Tell Mason to share.
00:12:49I don't care.
00:12:50Dad!
00:12:52I'm sorry.
00:12:53Mason, share with your sister.
00:12:54Fine.
00:12:55Mom, can we have pancakes this morning?
00:12:58Pancakes!
00:12:59Pancakes!
00:13:00Pancakes!
00:13:01Oh, the tickle dragon is angry!
00:13:03Tickle, tickle, tickle, tickle, tickle!
00:13:05Tickle, tickle, tickle, tickle!
00:13:07Got you, got you.
00:13:08Okay, okay, okay, I'm gonna get on those pancakes.
00:13:09Where do you think you're going?
00:13:10You cannot escape the tickle dragon!
00:13:12Tickle, tickle, tickle, tickle, tickle, tickle, tickle, tickle!
00:13:17Oh.
00:13:18Does Kevin like pancakes as much as us?
00:13:22Oh, I don't know, honey.
00:13:23He never got to try them.
00:13:28All right, come on, you two hooligans.
00:13:30Let's get downstairs.
00:13:32Let's get downstairs.
00:13:59Morgan?
00:14:02Morgan?
00:14:03Do you want to finish your story?
00:14:06Oh, um, yeah.
00:14:09Um, I feel like I'm the only one who's trying to keep Kevin a part of our lives.
00:14:17You know, we bake a cake for him at every birthday.
00:14:21We sing and blow out candles.
00:14:24He's got a stocking at Christmas.
00:14:27Tell the twins about their big brother.
00:14:40Uh, the kids, they, they go along with it.
00:14:44You know, they sort of get it as much as they can.
00:14:48They ask about him sometimes.
00:14:50But Rodney, he just, he tolerates it.
00:14:56Those memories can take a toll on everyone.
00:15:00I know.
00:15:01I just, I feel so isolated.
00:15:05You know, I, I initially thought the kids could replace Kevin, but they didn't.
00:15:12And, and, I don't work, so my life is just Rodney and the kids and, and those memories.
00:15:38Hey.
00:15:40Oh, hi.
00:15:42Um, I was just, uh, I dropped my keys and was just, uh, sorry for disturbing your story.
00:15:52I, I didn't mean to.
00:15:53No apology needed.
00:15:57Are you okay?
00:15:58Yeah.
00:16:00I mean, no, I'm not, but I need to be.
00:16:04You know, I got kids too, and after their mother, you know.
00:16:11Mom, I'm all I have.
00:16:13It must be really hard.
00:16:15You're doing a great job, though.
00:16:18Yeah.
00:16:20Hiding in the parking lot.
00:16:22Instead of going home to make dinner for my kids.
00:16:24No, I mean, being here, coming to group.
00:16:27And look, it, it gets better.
00:16:30Not a lot, but enough to go on.
00:16:37My favorite spot is hiding in the closet.
00:16:40Lights off.
00:16:41Total darkness any time of the day.
00:16:45And hey, as for dinner, how about you surprise them with a few of these?
00:16:51Yeah, my kids love donuts.
00:16:54Well, you'll be a hero then.
00:16:59Well, what about your twins?
00:17:03I stole plenty.
00:17:05Oh, I'm Griff, by the way.
00:17:07Griffith Walker.
00:17:08Morgan Metzer.
00:17:12You're a real life save of Morgan.
00:17:18Anyway, I hope to see you around.
00:17:19Yeah, me too.
00:17:22I hope to see you around.
00:17:22No, I have no clue.
00:17:24I hope to.
00:17:28No, I have no clue.
00:17:33Yeah, I love you.
00:17:38Oh, my God.
00:17:40Oh, my God.
00:17:40Oh, my God, oh, my God.
00:17:41Oh, my God.
00:17:43Oh, my God.
00:17:45Oh, my God.
00:17:48Oh, my God.
00:18:19It's great, great.
00:18:22Because you belong like this.
00:18:46Where's your husband?
00:18:53Hey, guys.
00:18:54Hey, Mom.
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?
00:19:12Um, I always do group on Tuesday,
00:19:15and 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.
00:19:23Don't worry about it.
00:19:26Guys, 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.
00:19:31Sorry, 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.
00:19:44Hello.
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.
00:20:14Rod, I'm so sorry.
00:20:15I know you are.
00:20:16It's just...
00:20:18It is what it is.
00:20:34You okay?
00:20:36I'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.
00:21:00And I've been reading up on investing.
00:21:03I can save us on commissions and do just as well if I start managing the account myself.

00:30:11Uh...
00:30:12So your trust account is overdrawn.
00:30:16Looks like there's interest.
00:30:18It means the money is gone.
00:30:20The trust is gone.
00:30:22How is that possible?
00:30:27Don't you watch the news?
00:30:30Inflation.
00:30:30Banks going under.
00:30:31The...
00:30:31The Fed's been raising rates like crazy,
00:30:34and we leveraged the trust to buy bonds
00:30:36back when rates were low.
00:30:37Now it's all...
00:30:38It's all just worthless.
00:30:40How does it...
00:30:40How does that even happen?
00:30:41You're not gonna understand it, okay?
00:30:42The money is just gone.
00:30:44All right?
00:30:44It's...
00:30:45It's...
00:30:46It...
00:30:46It's gone!
00:30:54Oh, well...
00:30:55Sell the house.
00:30:56I'll...
00:30:56I'll get a job.
00:30:57I mean, we'll figure it out, all right?
00:30:59We'll make it work.
00:31:31You have a beautiful house.
00:31:33Thank you for inviting me into it.
00:31:34And I would love to turn your house into a home
00:31:37where I can help you create the perfect warm family space
00:31:40for your baby and the newlywed couple.
00:31:42So let me show you what I mean.
00:31:44This should be the nursery.
00:31:46You do not want to go up and down the stairs
00:31:48every time you have a wet diaper.
00:31:51And then down the road,
00:31:52you should transform this area to more of a mudroom.
00:31:55We could do lockers right there.
00:31:57I have twins.
00:31:58So whether it's soccer cleats or ballet shoes,
00:32:01you're gonna need the space.
00:32:02And then I was thinking for the entryway,
00:32:05some runners.
00:32:06Something durable though.
00:32:07Something where you do not have to get down
00:32:08on your hands and knees to clean every month.
00:32:11And then the kitchen.
00:32:13I was thinking maybe more of a neutral palette
00:32:15with a backslash.
00:32:17All right.
00:32:18Now if you're open to it,
00:32:19this color would be amazing in the entryway.
00:32:22Yes.
00:32:23And I mean, yes to working with you.
00:32:25I just, I love your vision for us and the house.
00:32:29And let's do it.
00:32:31Don't you need to ask your husband?
00:32:32Oh no.
00:32:33He trusts me with all things house and home.
00:32:37Amazing then.
00:32:38I will get started right away.
00:32:40Great.
00:32:41We can find him.
00:32:53Morgan?
00:32:55Oh, hey Nicole.
00:32:56Hey.
00:32:57Good to see you again.
00:32:58Nice to see you.
00:32:58Are you redoing your kitchen or?
00:33:01No.
00:33:02I actually started my own design company.
00:33:05You're, you're kidding.
00:33:07That is incredible.
00:33:08Yeah.
00:33:09And pretty scary.
00:33:10I just landed my first big job.
00:33:12A starter home for a family coming from a New York apartment.
00:33:14So they don't have a stick of furniture and the house is totally bare.
00:33:18I'd pitch them on having this whole company and how I could handle it all, but it's just
00:33:24me.
00:33:24So.
00:33:26Well, you've done it before.
00:33:28I've seen your house, remember?
00:33:29So.
00:33:30Are you still selling insurance?
00:33:33I am.
00:33:34Yeah.
00:33:34Yeah, I am.
00:33:35Even though it is wildly, wildly mundane.
00:33:41Would you want to work for me?
00:33:46What?
00:33:47What?
00:33:47Me?
00:33:48You're serious?
00:33:49Yeah.
00:33:53Yes, I would.
00:33:54Can I?
00:33:54Oh my God.
00:33:55Oh my God.
00:33:56Wait, when do I start?
00:33:57What?
00:33:57Alright, and you're starting right now because I just, I don't.
00:33:59Okay, so this is the pallet that I was going for.
00:34:12Hey.
00:34:13Did you get a message?
00:34:15No, I've been working out.
00:34:16What's up?
00:34:16Babe, I won.
00:34:17I won it.
00:34:19I won.
00:34:20That's great.
00:34:20Huffle is so lovely.
00:34:22And the house, I mean, it's completely bare, but I mean, it's got natural light.
00:34:25There's an open floor plan.
00:34:26Hey, I actually have some good news too.
00:34:30There's this equity firm in Dallas and they're going to fly me in for an interview.
00:34:35Rodney!
00:34:35Oh my gosh, that's terrific.
00:34:37And you are so incredibly sweaty.
00:34:39But I don't even care because I'm so proud of you.
00:34:43There's one thing.
00:34:44The interview is on Valentine's Day, so I would have to cancel our dinner.
00:34:49Okay.
00:34:50Yeah.
00:34:51No, that's good.
00:34:52Yeah?
00:34:53And you can watch the kids for a few days?
00:34:55Yeah.
00:34:55Yes, yes.
00:34:56I can juggle the kids and the new job.
00:34:59Plus, I've got Nicole working for me now too, so it'll help.
00:35:02Oh.
00:35:02You hired someone?
00:35:04Yeah.
00:35:04Your buddy Tom, his ex-girlfriend.
00:35:07Alright, I'm going to get dinner started for the 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.
00:35:26Okay, we'll just make it quick.
00:35:33Oh, Mason, come on.
00:35:34Please don't eat from there.
00:35:36Alright, give me 15 minutes and I'll have 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.
00:36:17I'll tell you when you're 18.
00:36:18Shoot.
00:36:19Shoot.
00:36:28What?
00:36:44I like the grey one.
00:36:46It looks good on you.
00:36:48Well, you 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 gonna be gone for Valentine's Day.
00:37:26But I did get you something.
00:37:32Rod.
00:37:34I'm gonna 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.
00:37:38I don't want a gun in our house.
00:37:39Calm down.
00:37:40It has a trigger lock.
00:37:41It's fine.
00:37:42I need you and the kids safe, no matter what.
00:37:49Okay.
00:37:49Fine.
00:37:50Fine.
00:37:54You're welcome.
00:37:56Rod, I said I wasn't in the mood.
00:37:59Rodney?
00:38:00I said I...
00:38:01Rodney?
00:38:01I don't...
00:38:04What are you doing?
00:38:06Rodney?
00:38:07I need you.
00:38:17I need you, buddy.
00:38:20Ahh.
00:38:22Ahh.
00:38:25Ahh.
00:38:28Ahh.
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?
00:39:26Really?
00:39:27It was that bad.
00:39:28I 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, anyways, it's just, it's just been hard for him.
00:39:49Yeah, but you make great money now, right?
00:39:52I mean, isn't he happy about that?
00:39:55Yeah.
00:39:57Yeah, he is.
00:40:04Morgan.
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 mailbox.
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?
00:40:57Of course not.
00:41:12Oh my God.
00:41:24Oh my God.
00:41:26Oh my God.
00:41:45We got a letter from the credit card company.
00:41:47Did you happen to take out a second card?
00:41:50Said 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, I 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.
00:42:27No, Rodney, stop.
00:42:28No, no, no. You want to see your receipts.
00:42:29Never mind. Stop. Never mind.
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?
00:44:51Mommy just doesn't feel it. She's just upset. She's just upset. She's just upset. I need her. She's bad. She's
00:45:03just upset. You're right 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?
00:46:57Oh, God.
00:47:01Oh, God.
00:47:07Oh, God.
00:47:10Oh, God.
00:47:18I'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.
00:48:07Never.
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.
00:48:21You 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?
00:48:58Mmm, no, it's not upscale enough for what Jerry's looking for.
00:49:00She wants solids, whites, off creams.
00:49:03Um, elegant without being too showy.
00:49:05Yeah.
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.
00:49:33Just pick it up.
00:49:38She's cute.
00:49:40Oh, she's so cute.
00:49:41Okay.
00:49:42Okay.
00:49:50Bonitos.
00:49:52You guys almost done with your homework?
00:50:11Nice bag.
00:50:12Looks expensive.
00:50:15Four new clients this month.
00:50:17We 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,
00:50:59minding 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.
00:51:12New man.
00:51:14Rod, not here.
00:51:15Please.
00:51:15When were you planning to tell all of us
00:51:17that 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, the signs were there all along.
00:51:29The drinking, the 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,
00:52:25we can sometimes find ourselves
00:52:26inviting in people.
00:52:28People who don't have
00:52:29our best interests at heart.
00:52:32Today I want to talk about narcissists.
00:52:36Personalities who have an excessive interest
00:52:38in their own appearance,
00:52:40their own control over the world.
00:52:43They are entitled,
00:52:45lacking empathy.
00:52:47They lash out when threatened.
00:52:50Nothing is ever their fault.
00:52:53Bad outcomes are always the symptom
00:52:55of something someone else did.
00:52:57A narcissist has this compulsion
00:52:59for control.
00:53:05Sometimes the only way
00:53:06to handle a narcissist
00:53:07is to give them that control
00:53:09they so desperately desire.
00:53:12Lend it to them
00:53:13for the short term.
00:53:15But do so knowing
00:53:17that the control you're giving them
00:53:19is only in their minds
00:53:20and 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.
00:53:42Oh, I snuck in late.
00:53:43The kids have been so busy
00:53:44with 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,
00:53:53but did you happen to write
00:53:55my husband, Rodney, an email?
00:53:59Your husband?
00:54:01Yeah, um,
00:54:04did you tell him to back off
00:54:05so we could be together?
00:54:11So you put the letter
00:54:12in the mailbox, too?
00:54:15You're 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
00:54:22in, I don't know,
00:54:23ten years?
00:54:25Listen, I thought we could help each other,
00:54:28but whatever's going on
00:54:29between you and your husband,
00:54:31just leave me out of it.
00:54:50Hey.
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.
00:55:02Yes!
00:55:03Oh, I knew it, I knew it.
00:55:05I always said confidence is key,
00:55:06and 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 got to ask.
00:55:21What is going on with you?
00:55:23You've been really...
00:55:25off.
00:55:28No, 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.
00:55:59Morgan.
00:56:02He 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...
00:56:12Complicated.
00:56:13Yeah.
00:56:15Yeah, I know.
00:56:16But it's also really simple.
00:56:18Okay?
00:56:18I...
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.
00:56:29I'm a horrible mom.
00:56:31I'm 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, all right?
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 at Kevin's birthday party.
00:56:45I hit him.
00:56:47Morgan.
00:56:48Morgan, please, you just don't get it, all right?
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.
00:57:01That is not what happened.
00:57:05Get off of me!
00:57:07Get off!
00:57:12What was that?
00:57:13I said, don'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!
00:57:30You 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!
00:57:45Ah!
00:58:00What the hell are you doing?
00:58:03Me?
00:58:04You're trying to kill me?
00:58:05Daddy!
00:58:06Are you okay?
00:58:08Yeah, I'm fine.
00:58:08I'm fine.
00:58:09It's okay.
00:58:09Mommy, they need to push me, okay?
00:58:11She's just upset.
00:58:32You're so strong, okay?
00:58:36Okay.
00:59:05Oh!
00:59:06...back in another bunker there, a short life.
00:59:08...trick, so we can't try to come out soft
00:59:10and maybe run up to the hall.
00:59:15Rod, you should go.
00:59:17Morgan.
00:59:18I need to talk to my husband.
00:59:19...tick, it's rough on the golf course
00:59:21around the greens here.
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. Maybe.
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.
01:00:01Remember when you went to Dallas for an interview
01:00:04over 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
01:00:18that I was the broken one, the crazy one, the drunk one,
01:00:22the one who wouldn't move on from the memory of our son,
01:00:24the one who acted like a child 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?
01:00:49You 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?
01:01:02You 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.
01:01:21Let's go, let's go.
01:01:23Let's get in the car.
01:01:25Come on, baby girl.
01:01:25Hustle up.
01:01:30Alright, 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.
01:01:41Rodney, please stop.
01:01:42Come back inside.
01:01:43Let's talk about this.
01:01:45Please don't leave me!
01:01:46Rodney!
01:01:47We're done.
01:01:48Please, we're done.
01:02:10We're done.
01:02:24Oh, nice!
01:02:26Oh, nice.
01:02:27So good.
01:02:27Are you ready?
01:02:30It's so bad.
01:02:34It's so bad.
01:02:35It's so bad.
01:02:44Oh my gosh, Mason, do not eat that.
01:02:47That frosting is like glue.
01:03:00Come on in.
01:03:09Hey, guys. Merry late Christmas.
01:03:12Merry Christmas, Dad!
01:03:14Hi, buddy. Hi.
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! This 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 kid stuff.
01:03:36Yeah.
01:03:40One, two, three, four.
01:03:43Shirts.
01:03:46You know I could fix that floorboard?
01:03:48No.
01:03:49That's okay. I actually like it.
01:03:51It 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. No, he's been really great, actually.
01:04:04Um, it's his week with the twins, but when my sister called asking if they could visit for Christmas, he
01:04:08gave up his time so they could go.
01:04:11Hmm.
01:04:13And you're going on this drive with him to Florida?
01:04:16Uh-huh.
01:04:19And after you drop off the kids, Rod 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. I'm okay. It'll... It'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. I see your ads on Facebook all the time.
01:05:13Yeah, it's been great.
01:05:18I'm proud of you.
01:05:27I'm... I'm glad you're good, T-Rod.
01:05:29It's okay. You don't have to... have to say that.
01:05:31No. I mean, really. I mean, you've... you've cleaned up. You've been nice to the kids.
01:05:35I'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... I'm not okay.
01:06:14You know you can still tell me anything.
01:06:23I have cancer.
01:06:26Pancreatic cancer.
01:06:33It's... stage three and two.
01:06:37And the doctors say it's still confined to the pancreas.
01:06:42But the tumor's grown and...
01:06:45It's spread into the lymph nodes.
01:06:52I'm not gonna beat it.
01:06:54No. No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
01:06:57It's okay. You're gonna be okay.
01:07:00I'm so sorry.
01:07:02I should've 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... it'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.
01:07:36Rodney, 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...
01:08:08the chemo and radiation stuff all works...
01:08:14maybe you and I could work too?
01:08:20Rod, I'm here for you.
01:08:22Through it all.
01:08:27But only as a friend.
01:08:31Goodnight.
01:08:37You have to.

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 going to 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, just breathing on the other end of
01:21:51the line, and I got this weird feeling, and I just felt like I had to come check on her.
01:22:05Oh, 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 I've dispersed to you.
01:22:18Morgan!
01:22:20Nod if you understand.
01:22:23Nod.
01:22:23Then we'll be at the other end of 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...
01:23:29I just want to say I'm sorry.
01:23:35I fell down this dark path.
01:23:40But...
01:23:43I love my wife.
01:23:46I love her.
01:23:48And I never meant to...
01:23:52I never meant to hurt her.
01:23:56Ms. Metzer, I understand you have a statement
01:24:00you'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.
01:24:29Rodney.
01:24:32Love does not emotionally abuse.
01:24:36Love does not break into your home in the middle of the night.
01:24:41Love does not strike you countless times with a gun, tie you up, and strangle you.
01:24:51Love does not sexually assault you.
01:24:56Love does not leave you outside with a pillowcase over your head, wondering if you were ever going to see
01:25:03your children again.
01:25:07I gave you my heart and soul, and you tried to destroy them.
01:25:13And 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.
01:25:44That 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.
01:25:59And 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.
01:26:22Let's for a breakfast.
01:26:25Whatever you want, my little loves.
01:26:30And 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.
01:27:11I am looking up.
01:27:11I am the middle of my family.
