00:01Here. You can have mine.
00:04You were tossing and turning all night.
00:07Thanks, babe.
00:08I don't know how you didn't sleep well.
00:10Knowing you and Chelsea are safe and didn't inherit the gene variant had me out like a light.
00:16Got it. I guess that means we're not completely out of the woods yet.
00:22You're right. I, uh...
00:23We're still worried about your mom and the possibility of her someday having cancer.
00:28How would you feel if the variant was still a threat?
00:33Well, if I were Danny, relieved, I hope.
00:36I'd try to stress less and put all my energy and focus into taking care of myself.
00:41I'm just glad you're in the clear. We don't have to worry about it.
00:47Jacob, I...
00:48Anything else I can get you?
00:50Um, we'll just take the check, please.
00:52Okay.
00:53Thanks.
00:55Already?
00:56Are you going into work early?
00:58Yeah. I gotta sign a new case and it's got a lot of moving pieces, so I gotta read up
01:02on it.
01:03I can't afford to get caught off guard right now, you know?
01:06Sounds major.
01:07It is.
01:08But what about you? Are you okay?
01:09I don't have to leave right this second.
01:13Actually, there is something I wanted to talk to you about.
01:16Okay.
01:18Thanks.
01:21Never mind.
01:22We could talk about it later. Maybe with Trudy?
01:25Our therapist?
01:27Maybe. If it's important, I can stay. What's up?
01:36I had a feeling I'd find you here.
01:38Yeah, but why are you here, Danny?
01:39Look, you constantly popping by here is becoming a problem.
01:42Since when do you care about optics?
01:44Since Tomas saw us last night.
01:46Yeah, he was working late and he saw the kiss.
01:49Don't worry though, I'm on it.
01:51Worry is the last thing on my mind.
01:54If there is one person who can keep a dirty little secret in Fairmont Crest, it is the great Bill
02:00Hamilton.
02:01How ironic is this?
02:03Every moment between us has the potential to turn into the newest scandal.
02:08Fun.
02:10You just don't quit.
02:12No, Bill.
02:14You don't quit.
02:16Once again, you have it all.
02:18The loyal, devoted wife waiting at your beck and call.
02:23And yet the woman who could bring your world crashing down?
02:28She's irresistible to you.
02:33Right?
02:35Wrong.
02:37And what about that little boy toy husband of yours that you claim to be so in love with?
02:42I adore him.
02:44Now and always.
02:46Unlike your sham of a wife, we have nothing but mutual understanding and respect between us.
02:54Which leads me to my original question, why are you here?
02:58If I'm not welcome, kick me out.
03:02Say less.
03:10You were saying?
03:56You're making my own.
03:58You're making your own joke.
03:59I'll never play out with your own joke.
04:02If I'm alone, I'll never be as if you want to be a pastor.
04:04You're making my own joke.
04:05Kimo, Cloud, I won't be here to be annoyed by it.
04:10Well, hopefully, this will help make the appointment a little more tolerable.
04:16Oh, thank you. That is so sweet.
04:19Here to serve, my love. Here to serve.
04:22Ah, you ready to head out?
04:25Aren't you forgetting something?
04:28I am.
04:33Shame on me.
04:41Well, now, that is a proper send-off.
04:45It's a send-off?
04:47That's right. I will be attending this morning's session without you.
04:53Anita, we talked about this.
04:56There's absolutely no way I'm letting you go to Kimo alone.
05:00And that is fine with me.
05:02But you will not be accompanying me this morning.
05:05And I've already arranged for your replacement.
05:11What the?
05:16Oh, sorry. My hands are full.
05:21Double shot latte for you.
05:22Cafe mocha for your mocha mommy.
05:26Well, thank you.
05:28But why do I feel like there's something attached to this generosity?
05:33Smart girl.
05:34It's time to talk strategy, and I need you on your A game.
05:39Mama, what are you plotting now?
05:41Oh, you thought this was about me?
05:43Huh? No, no. Valentine's Day is in less than three weeks, so I need you to get ahead of it.
05:50So, what's that fine brown-eyed stallion planning?
05:56Isaiah and I are going with the flow, okay? We don't want to get too serious too soon.
06:02So, you don't want him to show you that you're special? That you're set apart from the rest of the
06:10world?
06:11We don't need some manufactured holiday to express how we feel about each other.
06:15Baby, men are simple creatures, okay? They need to be guided.
06:20Okay, well, what about you? Does that detective have something romantic planned?
06:26Maybe I'm keeping my options open.
06:30Please don't tell me you're holding out for Dad.
06:34Baby girl, my teddy bear and I are actual friends again.
06:38Next step, happily ever after.
06:44Dad is dating someone.
06:48Isn't this such a beautiful day?
06:50Dr. Banks, to bed, 425.
06:51Someone's happy.
06:53You're practically floating.
06:55I'm just having a fabulous morning.
06:58Hmm, I see.
06:59Does this have anything to do with a certain plastic surgeon that walks these halls?
07:04Maybe.
07:05So, the date last night went well.
07:08The evening went well.
07:10Middle of the night went well.
07:13And early this morning went well.
07:23Danny.
07:24Yes, Bill.
07:26Oh, Bill.
07:30Bill!
07:32Are you all right?
07:34Caroline said you wanted to see me.
07:44I have been dying to do that ever since I heard the news.
07:48The universe is smiling down on you, my dear.
07:51I am eternally grateful.
07:52My girls won't have to face that cursed gene and they can live their lives freely.
07:57I'm so sorry I wasn't free to celebrate with you last night.
08:00Don't even.
08:01Someone had to keep the Curtis Dupree-
08:03Dupree-Curtis agency alive.
08:06Thank you for handling that mess with Mignon, by the way.
08:09Could you believe that she took off her red bottoms and threw them at another model?
08:13I can believe it because I've done it.
08:15I could teach a master class on learning from your mistakes.
08:18All of which have led to the thoughtful, well-rounded woman you are today.
08:23So, did you just have a quiet evening?
08:26Something like that.
08:27Let's get mimosas, shall we?
08:31Danny.
08:33What did you do?
08:37I saw Bill.
08:40Good to see you, Sharon.
08:42Oh, Vernon, hi.
08:44I take it you're my stand-in for today.
08:47That's right.
08:48We're overdue for some girl time.
08:49I'm just happy she took me up on my offer.
08:52You don't mind, do you, sweetheart?
08:54Not at all, no.
08:55There are very few people I would entrust with my wife's well-being.
09:00You're one of them.
09:01I'm sure you've got a lot to catch up on.
09:04Yes, we do.
09:05So, I called Martin and I asked him to meet you at the club.
09:09I reserved your favorite squash court and I made sure your table was ready for breakfast afterwards.
09:14Well, I guess there's nothing for me to say but yes, dear.
09:19I'll be right here when you return.
09:21Oh, no, no, no, no.
09:22You don't have to sit around waiting for me.
09:24Go on and enjoy your day.
09:28Yes, dear.
09:32I love you.
09:33I love you.
09:37Thanks, Sharon.
09:39Call me if you need anything at all.
09:41I will.
09:45Good morning, Hawthorne.
09:47Morning yourself, Hawthorne.
09:49Hmm.
09:50I would ask if y'all wanted to split a stack of pancakes, but it looks like I'm late to
09:53the party.
09:53Yeah.
09:54We're just finishing up.
09:55Well, you're welcome to join us.
09:57Jacob was just leaving anyway.
09:59Wait, I thought you said you wanted to talk.
10:00Oh, it's no biggie.
10:01It can wait.
10:02I want to hear how Banneker's going.
10:05Mm-hmm.
10:05Citizen law.
10:07It is amazing.
10:08Man, the ones who left home to study here remind me how much courage it takes to chase
10:12a dream.
10:13And the local kids just made me glad to be back.
10:15Man, I'm so happy you found your calling, Isaiah.
10:18I'm happy for you, too, bro.
10:20I know it hasn't been the easiest since you've been back.
10:22Especially with Pops, is what he's trying to say.
10:24It's not exactly like I'll follow the family's footsteps.
10:28Being a cop doesn't mean automatic approval.
10:30I've practically done everything he's ever asked of me, and he still gives me grief.
10:34You?
10:36Pops Golden Boy.
10:37Yeah, whatever.
10:38He keeps questioning everything.
10:40My decision making, my judgment.
10:42It's like he doesn't trust me.
10:44Growing up, you literally could do no wrong.
10:47If Pops tripping like that, something must have changed.
10:54And you know my outfit was on point for the club, which was stunning.
10:58It's like I've been there for events, but nothing compares to the luxury feeling like
11:02it was tailored just for us.
11:03Talk about a white glove experience.
11:06It was perfect until Nicole walked in with Carlton.
11:11Shut up.
11:12I would have been mortified.
11:14I mean, I can tell she was completely blindsided, which I understand.
11:17I wanted to give her the heads up, but I never got the chance to.
11:19How did she react?
11:21Exactly the way you expect.
11:23The picture of grace.
11:24Nicole Dupree is a class act.
11:26Wow.
11:27I want to be her when I grow up.
11:29Man, hanging out with Derek ever since our breakup teeters between slightly tense and
11:34a hot, bumbling mess.
11:36Some people are just better at exes than others.
11:38Nicole wasn't even bothered.
11:40In fact, she wished us a good night.
11:42Her and Carlton didn't stay long, though.
11:44He probably wanted to eat somewhere else out of respect for Ted.
11:46What, was Ted thrown?
11:47Was he nervous?
11:48Oh, completely unfazed.
11:50I mean, Ted was determined to make sure I knew I was the priority.
11:54Totally attentive the rest of the day.
11:56And afterwards, too, apparently.
12:00Well.
12:01Well.
12:04Hey.
12:05Hi, beautiful.
12:06You got a break anytime soon?
12:08Oh.
12:09I gotta go check.
12:10Oh, well, look at there.
12:11She has a break coming up right now, actually.
12:14Coffee?
12:15Let's do it.
12:27Nah, nah, nah.
12:29We're not doing that.
12:30Eva.
12:30Uh, I give you a name, and the next thing I know, you're off digging in your magic box
12:35full of wigs and trench coats.
12:37I know who it is.
12:39It is that trifling nurse, Ratchet.
12:42See, I had already peeped her.
12:43I am my man.
12:45Right?
12:45Just a nasty little two-faced Jezebel, acting like she likes peaches.
12:50Mama.
12:51Please do not get fixated on this, okay?
12:54Look what happened when I finally let Tomas go, instead of fighting for a man who wanted
12:58somebody else.
13:00I found my own happiness.
13:03That's the difference between you and me.
13:06Baby, you moved on from any unrequited love.
13:09Now you are telling me to abandon my soulmate.
13:13No, I am begging you to not go up to that hospital and cause a scene.
13:18I mean, think about it.
13:19You can ruin the friendship you and Dad have built if you upset her.
13:23You don't want that, right?
13:26I am not thinking about going up to that dog-owned hospital, okay?
13:31I mean, come on.
13:32That trifling heifer, she cannot hold a candle to your mother.
13:36He refuses to see me as a professional.
13:38He keeps going on and on about lack of experience, but how the hell am I supposed to get that
13:42if he keeps me on the bench?
13:43Well, babe, I thought you just said you got a case.
13:46I mean, you sounded excited about it.
13:48I am, but I basically had to beg for that, even though it was my lead to begin with.
13:51Oh, come on.
13:53You're the chief of police's son.
13:55If Elon is careful about what he assigns you, I'm sure there's a reason for it.
14:00Like what?
14:01If he kept throwing you major investigations, don't you think the other detectives would
14:05start to feel resentful toward their boss or you?
14:09She got a point.
14:10You know, if Pops, he might just be trying to protect his rep and his youngin' at the
14:14same time.
14:15Look, I got a simple theory for you.
14:18All right, despite his flaws, and he has many, the man has love for you.
14:22If you're always rearing up for dangerous cases, it's probably just him trying to keep
14:25you safe.
14:26Nah, man.
14:26There's always a possibility of danger any time you go undercover.
14:30Undercover?
14:31Wait, you're going undercover for this case?
14:33Babe, relax.
14:34Your man knows what he's doing.
14:38But all right, I gotta go.
14:39I can't give the boss any reason to pull me.
14:57It's a great job simplifying the language in paragraph 13.
15:00I'm sure the Hendersons had questions.
15:02Part of client care is making sure they feel considered throughout the litigation process.
15:07Precisely.
15:08And you see, it's that type of approach to the work that keeps me impressed by you.
15:11It's all part of the gig.
15:13No, I mean it, Tomas.
15:14You've been my eyes and ears when I really needed it.
15:17And, you know, you've demonstrated real leadership and maturity over the last few months, especially
15:22when I had my stroke and when I had to pivot when Chelsea was missing.
15:26So, I appreciate the dedication.
15:29It's important to me that you know I've got your back.
15:32In and out of the courtroom.
15:34Is that right?
15:35You can rest assured knowing I have no intention of jeopardizing my future at this firm.
15:42Then I guess it's settled.
15:52A little early in the day, you know?
15:54No, I think the moment calls for it.
15:56What are we toasting?
15:58Your promotion, junior partner.
16:02It'll be non-equity, of course, but I'm sure you'll be happy with your new compensation package.
16:07I'll have Caroline email everything over.
16:09Thank you, Bill.
16:10You won't regret it.
16:14The hole that this man has over you.
16:17It is not what you're thinking.
16:19Bill has been so supportive since Mother's diagnosis and mine.
16:23It's a side of him I haven't gotten to see very often.
16:27Oh, that makes sense to me.
16:28You can always count on a fixer to be good in a crisis.
16:31It's the long haul where there are many, many weaknesses come to the forefront.
16:36I went to his office with pure intentions.
16:39To thank him and show gratitude with his favorite takeout.
16:44We laughed, we reminisced, we talked about the past.
16:47It was nice.
16:48That's all that happened.
16:50I kissed him.
16:52There it is.
16:54You're like a moth to the flame.
16:56How many times are you going to willingly get burned?
16:59It wasn't like some passionate longing.
17:01It was nostalgia.
17:03It was remembering a man that I loved dearly and showing him appreciation.
17:08That's it.
17:09It wasn't the two of you falling back into your usual dysfunctional pattern.
17:13Let me say it like this.
17:15If I was addicted to Bill Hamilton, this isn't one drink is too many, a thousand are never enough.
17:20No, this was me picking up the drink, sipping it, and putting it down.
17:24And walking away.
17:25For good.
17:27How to God you mean that, Dani?
17:30Because you have tortured yourself at the hands of Bill Hamilton long enough.
17:37You've raised a responsible adult.
17:39Trust her to make her own decisions.
17:40I could if this weren't completely out of character for her.
17:44She's been through a lot lately.
17:46Breaking up with Derek and then pouring her heart out to Andre only to get rejected?
17:51She told me that she was going to focus on herself and her career for a while.
17:55Maybe she changed her mind.
17:59Jumping headfirst into a fling with a man that she hardly even knows?
18:03I don't even recognize her right now.
18:08It's a mother's job to worry.
18:10It's also your job to let Ashley learn through experience.
18:14But what did she told you about the new guy?
18:17Oh, that's the thing.
18:18She didn't tell me.
18:19She tried to hide it.
18:21Proving she knows that I wouldn't have approved.
18:24If Derek had mentioned it, Ashley would still be sneaking around with some stranger.
18:29Wait a second.
18:30How is any of this even Derek's business?
18:34No way you're a cat person.
18:36Well, usually the little scratches and the white hairs on my clothes gives it away.
18:40But, um, yeah.
18:42Well, they are a passionate bunch, aren't they?
18:44Have you ever had one?
18:45No.
18:46Um, no.
18:47Not yet.
18:49What's your cat's name?
18:51Darcy.
18:52Like in Pride and Prejudice.
18:54So he's stuck up.
18:56He's royalty.
18:57I just pay rent in his palace.
18:59It sounds about right.
19:03What are we laughing at?
19:04Hey.
19:06Hey, Ash.
19:07How's it going?
19:09And, um, I don't think I caught your name.
19:12I'm Derek.
19:13Grayson.
19:14Um, Derek Grayson works at the hospital with me.
19:17Yeah, yeah.
19:18We crossed paths in the elevator the other day.
19:21You said you work in the lab, right?
19:22Yes, I've got a good memory.
19:25So what's up, Derek?
19:28Is there something I can help you with?
19:30Yeah.
19:30You can keep your claws out of what's mine.
19:34Excuse me?
19:35I've already told you once, but clearly you are hard-headed as hell.
19:40You know what?
19:41I don't even have time for this.
19:42As for what I have to say, it's quick.
19:46You've been clinging on to Ted, thinking that you can have what doesn't belong to you.
19:52But I'm here to give you one last reminder.
19:56Back off.
19:58I heard your little threat the first time.
20:00And guess what?
20:02I didn't care then, and I don't care now.
20:05Ooh, look at Miss Nurse Ratched all ready to fight.
20:09You may be Ted's baby mama, but that was decades ago.
20:13And it seems as though you're the only one not over it.
20:17Decades?
20:18Girl, we made sweet, sweet love just months ago.
20:25Now look, he's a man, and I know he may have needed a release, but know that's what you'll
20:33always and forever will be, a warm body.
20:38We created a life, and you will never be able to compete with that.
20:45Well, one thing's true.
20:48You're definitely on a break from reality.
20:57I'll show you reality when I drag you across this tile by your scalp.
21:02You need to leave before I have security escort you to the psych ward, and we have some pretty
21:07big guys on duty today, so it's your call.
21:11We'll pick this up later, when you won't see me coming.
21:22PT's going great, and my legs getting stronger by the day.
21:28So, what's up with you two?
21:30Any fun plans for the weekend?
21:31Uh, actually, I was hoping to catch a movie with Gracie.
21:35Oh, that's right.
21:36What are we going to watch?
21:36Sci-fi, thriller, what are we doing?
21:38Hmm, either, or maybe even both.
21:42More about the company.
21:44You know, we should probably be heading back to work.
21:47Definitely.
21:47Okay.
21:48Um, you know what, just give me a second.
21:51I'll meet you outside.
21:53Of course.
22:00What the hell, Derek?
22:02What?
22:03Don't play dumb, you just tried to ruin my date.
22:05I thought we agreed to be friends.
22:07I was being friendly.
22:08That was deliberate sabotage.
22:11And now I know how my mother found out that I was dating someone.
22:15Yeah, I'm, I might have mentioned something to Jan, but I, I assume she knew.
22:20Unbelievable.
22:25I don't understand how this is his business.
22:27She's being reckless, Mona.
22:29She doesn't know anything about this man, where he's from, what his family is like, like mother, like daughter.
22:35Oh, I know you are not comparing my relationship with Owen to Ashley's whatever with whomever.
22:43You and Owen have only met recently, but you believe he's the one.
22:49I haven't seen him a very long time, which means I know exactly what I'm looking for and can recognize
22:55it when I see it.
22:56There's a difference.
22:57So you think Ashley doesn't know what she wants right now?
22:59I think she's on a rebound right now and is going with whatever feels good in the moment.
23:05And that scares me.
23:07Pam, there is nothing to worry about.
23:10I ended the kiss.
23:11I don't want him back.
23:12Did Bill want to go further?
23:14As far as I could tell, he was willing to go as far as I was.
23:18Which tells me everything.
23:21Danny, you were never the problem in your marriage.
23:25It was that manipulative, philandering dog.
23:29He's gotten everything he said he wanted and he still wants more.
23:32Can't you see that?
23:33What does that have to do with our kiss?
23:35It is time, my darling, for you to let yourself off the hook for your marriage failing.
23:42Finally and absolutely.
23:45There is nothing you could have done to prevent the last year of your life.
23:49You're right.
23:51And Bill leaving gave me what I never knew I needed.
23:56Real freedom.
23:58And the man I deserved all along.
24:01I know it's silly to be this head over heels for someone my age.
24:06But Andre, he's just everything.
24:11Then don't ruin it.
24:13Bill has put you through hell and back.
24:17You deserve to be with a man who loves and respects you.
24:23What are you knitting?
24:25Ah, not sure yet.
24:27A throw.
24:30Only time will tell.
24:32Maybe it'll land in your Christmas stocking this year.
24:35Oh, thank you.
24:36But no thank you.
24:38After I get through this, I don't want to see anything chemo-related again.
24:44If I get through this.
24:46Uh-uh, we're not doing that.
24:47Life is in the power of the tongue.
24:50You know that.
24:51I know.
24:53But there's cancer.
24:57Cancer is tough.
24:59But my best friend's tougher.
25:02She once chased this girl down mag mile, honey,
25:05because she tried to swipe our silk scarves from a music festival and got them back.
25:12My mother stayed up all night working on those scarves for us.
25:16Anita Dupree.
25:19You're going to survive this thing.
25:22Say it with me.
25:24Sharon, please.
25:26I need to talk about this honestly, and I can't do that with Vernon.
25:30I can't do it with my family.
25:32It's just too difficult for them.
25:38Okay.
25:41Let's do it.
25:42Let's play Worst Case Scenario.
25:52Oh, I'm sorry.
25:54You need to dominate the conversation.
25:56I wanted to hear how things are going with Sexy Santa.
26:02Not great.
26:03It's fizzling out.
26:05I guess it wasn't meant to be.
26:06Oh, too bad.
26:08You know, Owen has a brother.
26:10Want me to get more info?
26:12No, don't worry about me.
26:14Maintaining the goals and making sure I'm right with the Lord keeps me plenty busy.
26:21That's very honorable.
26:23But me, I need a little more earthly satisfaction if you get my drift.
26:30I get it just fine.
26:34Our WNBA star is killing it.
26:36Playing in front of thousands clearly works wonders for her confidence.
26:40Astrid's attitude definitely commands the space, but she needs to work on her angles.
26:45See this shot?
26:46If she just stretched out her leg and tilted her head back, it'd be better.
26:50How are the Zoom sessions going?
26:52They're going well enough, but this tells me that we need to connect in person.
26:55Set it up?
26:56Absolutely, of course.
26:57Now, there's also the issue of scouting for the Maison Blumel fragrance art.
27:02Right.
27:04Maison is seductive.
27:05It's masculine.
27:06We need a male.
27:08No one who's ordinary looking.
27:09Someone who's tall, with strong, unique features, like...
27:18Him.
27:21That's Jacob's little brother, Isaiah.
27:23Oh, good.
27:24You already know him.
27:25Do you think he might be interested in modeling?
27:27He just got back to town.
27:29Wouldn't hurt to ask.
27:34Another time.
27:36When his tongue isn't quite so occupied.
27:39I cannot believe that Derek was bold enough to do something like that.
27:43Really?
27:44Derek.
27:45The same guy who pretended to be paralyzed because he thought it would be romantic to surprise you.
27:50Huh.
27:51Well, he needs to get a life.
27:53Or a woman.
27:55Quick.
27:56Well, it's not like he hasn't had the chance.
27:57You remember that firefighter.
27:58Yeah.
28:00Cheryl.
28:01Well, he should totally take her out.
28:04You should tell him to call her.
28:07Now, you know I am not the one to meddle in everybody else's business.
28:11Come on, Shanice.
28:12You guys, you have your own friendship.
28:14And he will totally take it better coming from you.
28:17Okay, fine.
28:18But only because I'm in such a good mood today.
28:21I owe you one.
28:28Hey, Naomi.
28:30I wasn't expecting you today.
28:31Are you here for your test results?
28:33Oh, um, no.
28:35I got those a couple nights ago.
28:40Let's move over here.
28:53Well, I have it.
28:56I have the same variant that mom and gran have, so that means my chances of getting certain types of
29:01cancers are increased.
29:05I'm so sorry.
29:11Look, I know you've done your own research, but I have to say it, okay?
29:14Just because you have the gene does not mean you are automatically going to get this disease.
29:18Yeah, I know.
29:19I know you know.
29:21Do you believe it?
29:24I'm, um, processing.
29:27How'd the family take it?
29:29I haven't told them yet.
29:32Okay, it's been a couple of nights.
29:35You told Jacob, though.
29:38He doesn't know either.
29:41And I'd really appreciate if this just stayed between us.
29:46I'm confused.
29:48Why would you hide something like this?
29:52I've been researching estate planners after Vernon goes to sleep.
29:59I want my ducks in a row.
30:01I don't want him to have to worry about wills and finances and arrangements.
30:07Girl, don't you tell me you've planned your own home going.
30:11I've been thinking about it.
30:13I've been thinking about it.
30:13There's this company that can take your remains and mix it with a special soil and turn you into a
30:20tree.
30:20It's called a living memorial.
30:23Did you know about that?
30:25No.
30:26But there's something poetic about your essence still existing in the world.
30:34Well, my family could come visit me.
30:37You and Tracy could come and sing while my leaves dance in the wind.
30:42Sounds kind of nice, right?
30:45And how is Vernon going to feel about you making all of these plans behind his back?
30:53My Vernon, I didn't realize how really intertwined we have become over all these years until I went to Chicago
31:03for rehearsals last year.
31:04I could feel that man needing me from hundreds of miles away.
31:10He has been the rhythm of the center of my soul for what feels like forever.
31:22You know, you hear about those couples who have been together a lifetime and one passes away.
31:30And a few days later, the other follows from a broken heart.
31:36I cannot leave this earth peacefully, knowing his broken heart is because of me.
31:44Sis, a love like yours transcends space and time.
31:51You think that kind of soul connection just stops?
31:54No.
31:55You will always exist within him.
32:01And yes, if this disease takes you, it will be hard on all of us.
32:11But we won't let Vernon fall through the cracks.
32:16Because we'll hear you shouting down from heaven, telling us to keep that man going for you.
32:24And for your family that you made together.
32:30And even when enduring the deepest grief,
32:39life, it will go on.
32:42And your girls will reach incredible heights.
32:46And your grandchildren and their children will have extraordinary lives of their own.
32:52Because you showed them how.
32:55And we will honor everything you are.
33:02Till we meet again.
33:05And we will.
33:06Whether it'll be at that tree of yours or out there in them streets paved with gold, honey.
33:14We will, my sister.
33:33When Jesus is my portion, my constant friend is he.
33:43His eyes on the sparrow.
33:49And I know he watches me.
33:57Your texts have become my favorite notification.
33:59Thanks for the invite.
34:00Of course.
34:02So, you hungry?
34:03Did I have a great avocado toast?
34:05No, I grabbed something earlier at Orphie Jeans with Jacob and Naomi.
34:08Oh.
34:09And I'm slick, still full from this coffee mama brought me.
34:12You wanted me to meet you at Uptown because...
34:16Foolishly listening to something my mother said.
34:18You can go if you want.
34:20Your place?
34:21Let's go work up an appetite.
34:24We're losing him.
34:26Don't you worry.
34:28I'll track him down.
34:31When I got the results, mom was standing right there.
34:35And she had been so worried about Gran, I didn't want to add to that.
34:39Okay, that makes sense.
34:41But what's stopping you from keeping this from Jacob?
34:44A better time?
34:45I was going to tell him earlier today, but then he started talking to me about feeling pressure at work,
34:51and he had just taken on this undercover assignment.
34:54That sounds dangerous.
34:55Yeah, that's exactly how I was feeling.
34:57So, he doesn't need any distractions, and I would never forgive myself if I caused him to get hurt.
35:03So, this will just have to wait.
35:06Okay.
35:08Your secret's safe with me.
35:12A morning without you has felt like an eternity.
35:17How did everything go?
35:19I serenaded her with my beautiful voice.
35:22Oh, a private articulance concert.
35:25If I could have been a fly on the wall.
35:28It was sweet.
35:29I drifted off before I was even...
35:33Before I...
35:35Sweetheart!
35:36Yes!
35:47Next, on Beyond the Gates.
35:49Oh, my God.
35:51That dress, the hair.
35:53She looks...
35:54Fine as hell.
35:56There's an issue.
35:57Are you kidding me?
35:58I mean, there's been no change for months.
36:00What are we talking about here?
36:01I am headed to the hospital to do research on preventative cancer treatments.
36:05Why?
36:06You tested negative for the variant.
36:08Hey, Dad.
36:09How long's this been going on?
36:11You know what's up, Andre.
36:12You know what you have to do.
36:14Yeah.
36:14I found the love of my life.
36:16I love you enough to walk away.
36:39I don't know.
36:40You know what's up, Diego?
36:41I love youント 400 people.
36:42It was a football playing, eh?
36:43Of course, I wasabi there.
36:43Oh, you said something.
36:45I found the life of my life.
36:47I want life to window stuff.
36:47I'm a great guy that woke me up.
36:47You
