00:05Sweetheart, I am capable of walking under my own power.
00:08No one is questioning your might, my love.
00:11I'm just following through on my promise of door-to-couch service.
00:16You promised not to treat me like a porcelain doll.
00:18I am not leaving your side until we know how you're going to respond to chemo.
00:24Aren't you tired of watching?
00:26You watched me read, you watched me nap,
00:29you watched that medicine drip into me, hopefully working its magic,
00:33all this watching.
00:34Your time could have been better spent.
00:37Where else would I have been?
00:38With the girls.
00:40I know how nerve-wracking it is waiting for these results.
00:43They were waiting for word that you got through the chemo.
00:47Any other answers are for another day.
00:50Well, Leah said today.
00:53And you haven't made a single call.
00:57I've been busy watching my favorite program.
01:00The Anita Show.
01:02Vernon.
01:05Martin called.
01:08If it was good news, you would have already shared it with me to lift my spirits.
01:12The doctor said for you to stay calm.
01:15And my husband's closed lips are preventing that.
01:18The results are in.
01:21Nicole is not a carrier.
01:22Oh, thank God.
01:26You always use your words precisely.
01:28You didn't say Danny.
01:30We always knew there was a probability.
01:34Now it's a reality.
01:37Danny has the Broca gene.
01:41A watched phone never rings.
01:43I know no such thing.
01:46What does it say about me that the people I love the most don't want me around?
01:50Father says he's fine to tend a mother on his own and my girls didn't want me to come get
01:54their blood drawn with them.
01:56And you think your presence is going to change how tired Anita will be or impact the results?
02:01No.
02:02Do you need to be there for them or be there for you?
02:06For both.
02:08My mother made me and my girls are me.
02:11Naomi and Chelsea are the best parts of me.
02:16And you think your comfort's in?
02:18As a mother, I...
02:20I would be bawling over the needle going in and they don't need that.
02:23They still need you and they want you.
02:26Even if you can't be there physically.
02:30Besides, there's a chance that they don't even get the gene.
02:32This is me, Andre.
02:34The math just doesn't math like that for me.
02:37The chips rarely fall in my favor.
02:39My girls.
02:41Hey, come on.
02:41Come on.
02:42There's no sense in getting yourself all worked up.
02:43I am trying to be positive.
02:45But my results are in.
02:47Why would I think my kids would escape the same fate?
02:50Why wouldn't you?
02:51I just keep thinking about all the choices.
02:53Maybe you should stop thinking altogether.
02:55Okay?
02:57Let me distract you.
03:01Hey.
03:03You came.
03:04You texted.
03:05I love that we're here.
03:07At Uptown?
03:09That I can text you with no notice and you show.
03:12I'm here for whatever you need.
03:14No judgment.
03:16But was this really a spontaneous text?
03:19Didn't you get the results today?
03:20Are you trying to find out if I am dying to see you or if I'm actually dying?
03:26Sorry.
03:27I can't seem to steer myself away from Gallo's humor.
03:32Yes.
03:33The results came back.
03:37Nicole.
03:37I tested negative.
03:40I don't get it.
03:42Why aren't you happier?
04:16Hey.
04:17Oh, my bad.
04:20What's up?
04:20What you need?
04:21The sticky fingers case?
04:23Akai has to sharp-nip the crew hitting some kitty smash and grab.
04:26It's an organized six-figure menace.
04:29Right.
04:29Right, right.
04:30Okay.
04:31Um, yeah.
04:32Detective Wells.
04:33He's staking the warehouse.
04:35And, um, Officer Lane.
04:38He set up a meeting with Defense Gerber.
04:41You want to let me know when you clocked in and ready to work?
04:44I was just about to review this file.
04:46But you never give me an update without thorough details.
04:49Where's your head?
04:52All my life.
04:54I've gotten blood work done more times than I can count.
04:56But this time, this could really change everything.
05:00Well, I hope you still think that knowledge is power.
05:03Because it is.
05:04The more you know, the more you can prepare.
05:07Yeah.
05:07And knowledge is time, too.
05:09Time to appreciate your health if the test comes back negative.
05:12And if it's positive?
05:15Time to make a plan and to stay out of it.
05:18You managed to peek in on your grandmother?
05:20No, only Grandad was allowed in.
05:22Grand's edict.
05:23But they just got home.
05:24And Chelsea?
05:25Same as me.
05:27Anxious.
05:28But Chelsea and Needles are not friends.
05:31So, Madison's in there holding her hand.
05:34Hey.
05:35Thank you again for getting us in there so quickly.
05:39Don't mention it.
05:40I'm just happy I can do my job.
05:42And thank you for connecting us with that new lab tech.
05:46He really has a magic touch, doesn't he?
05:48I wouldn't know.
05:49Well, you could when you go out with him tonight.
05:53Oh.
05:58When we were in med school, they framed it like it was a game of chance.
06:02Rolling the dice to see what your body was wired for.
06:06I wish my sister's luck had been different.
06:09It's just the first steps.
06:12Yes, there is an elevated risk.
06:13But it doesn't mean that Danny's going to develop cancer.
06:16And you'll be there with her along the way.
06:20I will do a Long Island iced tea.
06:22Excellent choice.
06:24Club soda for me.
06:26I'll be back with your drinks.
06:31You usually go for a lot less proof and more presentation.
06:35You knocking a classic?
06:37It gets the job done.
06:39What's the job?
06:41What happened to I'm here for you, Nicole?
06:43Whatever you need, Nicole.
06:44I am here for you.
06:46I know the science.
06:48But she is my sister.
06:52She is the first person I got to love since the day she was born.
06:58Not just love.
07:00Protect.
07:03When those results came in, all I could think was not Danny.
07:11I would trade places with her in a heartbeat.
07:14Is that what she would want?
07:17She is happy I was spared.
07:21The only good thing to come out of this is my clean test means that Kat and Martin are out
07:27of danger.
07:29And Danny's beans.
07:31Her daughters may also have inherited the gene.
07:36Anita got diagnosed with breast cancer.
07:38Oh, man.
07:41I'm sorry to hear that.
07:43Her children got tested to see if they inherited the carrier gene.
07:46And Danny's test came back positive, which puts Naomi and Chelsea at risk, too.
07:50Yeah, baby.
07:51Why didn't you tell me?
07:52Well, at least switching it to your mother.
07:55Because you always said to not act until you know all the facts.
07:58This isn't the case.
07:59I'm where you unload at the first end of trouble.
08:01And Naomi's our family, too.
08:04How's she doing?
08:06You know her.
08:07Going full on Naomi.
08:09Making playlists for Anita and blowing up her group chat with her mother and her sister and scouring the internet
08:13for info like it's her job.
08:15Any cracks in the armor?
08:16Nah.
08:18Naomi's made of Dupree Steel.
08:20I'm the one who's feeling it.
08:22This cancer thing is scaring the hell out of me.
08:26Well, Madison must have a way with her hands because you don't look phased at all.
08:30Well, not just Madison.
08:32That cute lab tech.
08:33You had me doing this breathing exercise thing.
08:35I barely felt a prick.
08:37Closest thing I've been to a threesome since I gave them up for true love.
08:41See?
08:42The hot tech's got fans.
08:44You're relentless.
08:46Go to her.
08:47You've got this, little sis.
08:50Yeah.
08:51Nurse Tia, dial me.
08:52I'll need to.
08:55Well, thanks for coming to the lab.
08:58Yeah, I couldn't leave you alone with Grayson.
09:00That man takes off his lab coat and I swear, all the nurses just stop and watch like he's Magic
09:04Mike.
09:06You did amazing.
09:08Well, now if you just hold my hand 24-7.
09:11Millions live with a variant and never get the disease.
09:14Keep reminding me.
09:16Graham getting sick, it's forced me to take a long, hard look at myself and I need to make some
09:21major changes.
09:24You are more excited about my date than I am.
09:27What?
09:27He's patient and dreamy.
09:30I like him for you.
09:31And you're basing this off what?
09:33A blood test?
09:33If my coffee date ends like that, things will have gone very, very wrong.
09:38Oh, come on.
09:40You can enjoy his excellent bedside manner, if you know what I mean.
09:45I'm just dipping my toe in the water.
09:47What is with the hard sell?
09:48You survived the first awkward run-in with Derek, did the moping and ditched the sweatpants.
09:55Ergo, you are showing signs of actually being over your ex.
09:59Isn't it time to see who else is out there?
10:03I love these shoulders, and your skin is so soft.
10:08Mine, your lips so supple and sweet are mine.
10:14Mine love you too.
10:17And I love you.
10:23I may have lost the genetic lottery, but the loved one?
10:28Baby, I ran the tables.
10:33We both did.
10:36Danny, I was out there wandering, because no place felt like home.
10:41After my parents died, I had convinced myself that I wasn't bothered, and that my life was exactly the way
10:50I wanted it.
10:52But then this magical, beautiful, insanely inspiring woman popped up.
10:59You made me stop wandering, Danny.
11:02You became my home.
11:08And here I was, thrashing around, mourning something that meant nothing.
11:16You didn't know what you were missing.
11:19And I didn't know you were coming.
11:23You're my home too.
11:30Danny's finally pulled her life back together.
11:33The boy we thought was a toy is now our favorite son-in-law.
11:36She couldn't be prouder of Naomi's success.
11:39She and Chelsea are closer than they've ever been.
11:42Her business is growing.
11:44Danny is flourishing.
11:45And now she's got to deal with my broken genes.
11:47I will not be the reason our baby girl goes off the rails.
11:51Danny's resilient.
11:52I still hear the sound of the gunshots of Danny's resilience.
11:57That was then.
11:58This is now.
12:00And you cannot possibly blame yourself.
12:03Can't I?
12:05Vernon, I don't know when it happened, but I believed our hype.
12:10I bought into the Duprees, the shiny family up on the hill.
12:15But the bloodline that we are so proud of, that's where the culprit lies.
12:19We thought we were passing on our prized family genes when I was really passing on an intruder.
12:26And that cancer that is not only threatening my life, but now Danny's and possibly our grandchildren,
12:33also kept me from being with her when she found out.
12:36It's not a curse.
12:39It touches almost every family.
12:43That's not on the name.
12:44It's not on you.
12:46It's the nature of the beast itself.
12:49Well, that beast has kept me away from my baby long enough.
12:53We can call.
12:54I need to look her in her eye and tell her I am sorry with my arms around her.
13:00After you've rested, Dr. Bauer was adamant, as am I.
13:05Vernon, this is our journey, but it is my body, and I know when I'm fine.
13:11And Dr. Bauer's instructions are not law.
13:14Nor are they mere suggestions.
13:17You've just acknowledged that Anita Dupree is human.
13:21I am being as good a patient as I am capable of.
13:26But coddling me when what I need is just a few streets away
13:29is the exact opposite of the prescription for peace.
13:34You are as stubborn as the day I met you.
13:37More!
13:41I'll have Titus bring the car around.
13:51Do you know what I hate on top of everything else?
13:54Tell me.
13:55This just reinforces the narrative.
13:59The tale of two sissies.
14:01Danny's poor Danny.
14:02The hot mess with drama around every possible turn.
14:05And I, I am.
14:07Little Miss Perfect Nicole.
14:10Aren't you poor Danny-ing her right now?
14:12Thinking you can handle cancer better than she can?
14:15Ouch.
14:15But fair.
14:18I've never seen Danny like that.
14:21But you, you're pretty flawless.
14:24Mm-mm.
14:25Mm-mm.
14:27Don't say that.
14:28I've looked at you.
14:29I've listened to you.
14:30I've kissed you.
14:32You, you should own it.
14:35I am just as messed up as everybody else.
14:41I have just learned ways to cope.
14:44It comes with the territory of the profession.
14:47Josh, can I have another one, please?
14:49Nothing for me.
14:51Life isn't a professional setting, Nicole.
14:53Doctor, heal thyself.
14:55Or maybe just be yourself.
14:58No one expects the calm and perfect veneer at all times.
15:02I expect it.
15:04Hell, just a few months ago, I called myself the family fixer.
15:08Well, my family doesn't have fixers, so what does that job entail?
15:11Making sure that nobody falls.
15:13And if and when they do, I am there.
15:18Sounds noble.
15:20And exhausting.
15:24It is.
15:28I don't need fixing.
15:31So how about you pack up all those tools?
15:34And just be real with me.
15:37You want me to be real?
15:39Yes.
15:40Fine.
15:43Take terrified.
15:45Multiply it by a million.
15:47And that is me.
15:54You do know how to distract.
15:57But now that the tell portion is over, show me the love.
16:04No words.
16:06Just hands.
16:14And...
16:15And...
16:25And...
16:29And...
16:30Okay.
16:33Okay.
16:36I'm gonna get that when I come back
16:40I'm gonna make sure the rest of the world is forgotten about
16:43Oh, uh, Miss Anita
16:50Vernon, we were not expecting you
16:53Please, can I get you some tea or some juice?
16:55I just need my Danny
16:56Sure, she's in the bedroom, but she may not be dressed yet
17:00I brought that child into this world
17:03You think I haven't seen her naked behind?
17:07You can't stop a determined Dupree
17:10Let me get that for you
17:12So, uh, how was chemo?
17:16Well, she seems to be tolerating it well so far
17:20Or she could be operating on sheer adrenaline
17:26And how are you?
17:29Everything in our family flows from her
17:32If she's sick, it feels like we all are
17:36And this news about Danny
17:38Hey, just tell me, what can I do?
17:41Well, while Anita's holding her baby, maybe
17:44You and I can have a father-in-law to son-in-law chat
17:49Danny?
17:50Mother?
17:52You're not supposed to be out of the house
17:54Do you think I pitched a fit with your father to come here and talk about myself?
17:59Daddy told you I have the broca gene
18:03He did
18:05Come here, baby
18:12When those vials were filling up
18:14The only thing I could think about was my kidnapping
18:16Oh, Chelsea
18:18This isn't about crazy, Allison
18:20It's about after
18:21You've been doing amazing
18:22But I've also been something else
18:25Something I've never been before
18:26Careful
18:28With reason?
18:29You took control of your socials?
18:31You've been teaching your Chelsea fam about online safety?
18:33Remember what I said when you asked me the meaning of life the day we met?
18:37That you're game for anything
18:39I used to go to the airport
18:41Close my eyes and pick a destination on the board
18:44And you and I, we've never had a real getaway
18:47We're busy, we live full lives
18:49We have demanding schedules
18:51We do, but how much of that is me just being chicken?
18:55Being spontaneous used to be my superpower
18:58What are you saying?
19:00Graham's sick
19:01And she's lived a lifetime of doing the right things
19:05I think it's time for me to stop playing it so safe
19:10What are you afraid of?
19:12Mother
19:13Shouldn't be Anita Dupree
19:15Anita Williams
19:16She came from the poorest part of Chicago
19:21Used her voice
19:22Led the articulants
19:23Earned an EGOT
19:24Became a philanthropist
19:25And still somehow
19:27She genuinely feels that her children are her greatest accomplishment
19:32Above everything else
19:37She beat every single odd to become who she is today
19:45What if she doesn't be this one?
19:48She will bring all of the above to the fight
19:51I have seen it personally with every reconstruction that I've done
19:54And you have seen it in the patients that you counsel
19:57Mind or matter is real
20:02She will get the best care money can buy
20:06The cancer doesn't care about that
20:09It doesn't care that she is a mother
20:11A wife
20:12A grandmother
20:13A star
20:14All it cares about is taking
20:18And the kind mother has
20:20It is violent
20:24Josh, can I get another drink, please?
20:27No, no, no
20:27Let me take an hour
20:29What?
20:31You don't like the real me already?
20:34No, no
20:34I just don't know that you want to share her with the whole restaurant
20:42Being scared doesn't mean you can't also be strong
20:45God knows if anything happened to your mother, I would be lost too
20:49But you need to hold it together for Naomi, son
20:53I'm trying, Pops
20:57The priests have their hands full, but mine and your mother's aren't
21:00You know, Naomi's our family too
21:02Lean on us
21:05Let's say a prayer for her at church Sunday
21:08Or you can come with us
21:10Yeah
21:11Yeah, we'd like that
21:12Good
21:14Now go see your woman
21:16All right
21:17I just gotta take care
21:18Hand your calls off
21:20This mess will be here in the morning
21:21All right, we'll debrief then
21:26Take good care of Naomi
21:28All right
21:29Thanks, Pops
21:31Coffee
21:31Coffee
21:32On the first date is a tragedy
21:34The coffee breath, the laptops
21:37Grayson deserves better
21:39You know what?
21:40I think you should go on this date instead of me
21:43Or I could come with you
21:46Come again?
21:47A double date
21:47No
21:51Grayson
21:52Ashley wants to ask you something
22:00What's up?
22:02Um, non-stop drama
22:04You?
22:06Low light kid with leukemia this morning
22:10High light
22:11You finally agreeing to do coffee with me
22:14Um, high light
22:17Me being able to help my bestie and her sis
22:19Thanks to you
22:21Low light, the reason why
22:24Yeah, I could tell
22:25They were anxious
22:26You know, alleviating tension's kind of my gift
22:30Oh, is it?
22:31Mm-hmm
22:31You know, there's only one way you're gonna find out
22:38Um, would it be okay if we change plans tonight?
22:41If you need to be with your friend, though
22:43I totally get it
22:44I do
22:44I just want you to come, too
22:51It's not easy to take on a Dupree
22:56Jacob and Smitty, they, uh
22:58They rose to it
23:00Ted and Bill, they failed spectacularly
23:05They forgot the secret
23:08Which is?
23:09Appreciate their strengths
23:11Their bravado
23:14Be the place where they can
23:17Feel what they need to feel
23:19Yeah
23:20The soft place to land
23:22You follow?
23:24I do
23:24Good, because otherwise
23:26There'd be someone else
23:28Waiting to be Danny's safe space
23:33Sweetheart, I want to apologize to you for passing on this gene
23:37Come on
23:39This isn't your fault
23:40It's just cells and bad luck
23:43I know it's beyond my control
23:45But if I could have
23:46I would have done anything to spare you this
23:49Maybe if I had known sooner
23:51How?
23:52They didn't even know this gene existed
23:54Until after Nicole and I were born
23:57You couldn't have changed the course of our lives short of making us not exist at all
24:02And I sure as hell am glad to be in this world as your daughter
24:09You know, when your father and I first got together
24:13I imagined that our daughters or sons would be little versions of us
24:20You wish I'd been more like you, I'm sure
24:23No, no
24:25I was delighted at how you and Nicole
24:28Were not mini-me's
24:30But your own wonderfully independent, occasionally infuriating selves
24:38But of course my vanity
24:40Always enjoyed seeing those little bits of us in you
24:43And some of that fire
24:46Definitely came from me
24:49But I never thought
24:51That I would pass on something that could hurt my baby girl
24:54No
24:56What you feel
24:59Is exactly what I'm feeling
25:02The guilt
25:03The bargaining
25:06Because that thing in you
25:08That might be in me
25:11I might have passed down to my girls
25:15And that feeling is worse than being sick myself
25:19I will find this a table while you guys get the apps and cocktails
25:23Ashley is just so very thirsty
25:26Uh-huh
25:29John?
25:31Yeah, sorry about that
25:33She's usually not so mad matchmaker
25:36And I know that bringing my bestie on our first date is breaking pretty much every role
25:40I get it
25:41I get it
25:42Besides, she's got me from coffee to drinks and a whole double date
25:45Maybe she's my best friend
25:47Hey babe
25:48Hey
25:48Aren't we supposed to be curled up binging reality TV right now?
25:52Ugh, she's been so much sad this week
25:55I couldn't miss a chance to do some healing
26:05Do you remember Long Island can also sneak up on you?
26:08Boo!
26:10I'm not scared
26:12I just want to make sure you don't feel like the Long Island Express train hits you in the morning
26:17It wouldn't be my first hangover
26:19Besides, I am in my own home
26:21With my own liquor cabinet
26:24Which means the highest quality
26:27And it's not like I am leaving and driving
26:31Worst case, I might do some
26:34Internet shopping
26:35Nicole
26:36One night
26:38Just one night
26:39I don't want to have any answers
26:41I want to let my hair down
26:42Just one night, Carlton
26:45I thought you were the guy that I could let loose with
26:48Turns out that you are all sentiment and no follow through
26:52You know what?
26:52You have been kind
26:54You brought me home
26:55You can leave now
26:57Maybe you can take Miss Perfect out when she returns to her factory settings
27:01That is if she still wants to go out with you
27:03Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
27:07I would not dream of letting you drink alone
27:16I thought you were going to say we should start jogging or cut back on steak
27:20You know, things that actually prolong life
27:22Living on the edge sounds like the opposite
27:26Close your eyes
27:27Why?
27:28Do you trust me?
27:30Yes
27:30Then close your eyes
27:38I want to do much more of that
27:40Well, that makes two of us
27:42But
27:42And I don't need to take some big physical risk, okay?
27:45I just want to feel at home in my skin again
27:48Even if that means sharing my body with this evil gene
27:52I want to kiss my girlfriend in the middle of a hospital
27:55I want to fill up that map on my phone with so many pins that you can't even see map
27:59I want to learn things from strangers
28:03And this ticking gene bomb
28:06It may be just that
28:08But it's also a gift
28:10It reminded me of what I'm missing
28:13Do you get what I'm trying to say?
28:16Yeah, yeah, I do
28:17And I want you to be with me every step of the way
28:20This adventure, it isn't just mine, okay?
28:23It's ours
28:27I thought you might enjoy an Aperol Spritz
28:30Yeah
28:31Slightly less aggressive than the Long Islands you love
28:36Yum!
28:37You thought right
28:45Do you remember this one?
28:47How could I forget?
28:49Certified classic
28:52I enjoyed dancing with you at our indoor picnic
28:56Then maybe we should do it again
28:59Nothing I'd like more
29:08Would you like that more?
29:09Where?
29:14Me?
29:15Oh, I'm sorry
29:18Is this version of me not to your liking?
29:20No, no, no, no
29:21I want every version of you, Nicole
29:26But tonight isn't our night
29:29I want you to choose me when you aren't taking time off from being yourself
29:34Look at me
29:36I don't want to be your escape, Nicole
29:40I want to be your real light
29:46I'm looking at these bottles of scotch
29:48And I'm trying to figure out why none of them are together with their friends
29:53Friends?
29:54Yes, but then I realized that the bartender organized them by size and shape as opposed to type
30:02Which I think is much cooler
30:04And you think is lame?
30:08Interesting
30:10Now, most men don't have that attention to detail
30:14Well, does it help that I also noticed that that bottle of cognac has a sexy shape?
30:20And?
30:21And yours is even sexier
30:22Okay
30:26What?
30:26How many times have you used that line?
30:28Just a few times
30:29Yeah, maybe a couple
30:30You know?
30:30Do it
30:31But you're the first woman to call me out on it
30:34The others are being polite
30:36And you're being honest
30:38Mistake?
30:39If honesty scares me, then yes, but spoiler
30:44It doesn't
30:46Mm, that was definitely a scoot
30:47You saw that?
30:48I saw the scoot, babe
30:50And I also see that new couple friends alert going off in your head
30:53But remember, Ashley has to like the new puppy before we adopt him
30:57Well, she's definitely attracted to the new puppy
30:59So what do you do to relax?
31:02Um, read
31:05Work out
31:07Okay, fine
31:07I'll admit I like to clean and organize
31:10But now it seems like I'm saying that just to impress you
31:14I'm just very detail-oriented
31:17You see, I'm a guy who really enjoys details
31:20Hmm
31:22Like the way you naturally tilt your head so when I come in for that first kiss
31:26No head-butting
31:28How very conscientious of you
31:30Actually, bumping noses is the number one cause of injuries
31:33In first kisses, so
31:35If that's your way of saying you are an expert
31:39Maybe you should initiate things
31:42I mean, what if I go in for the first kiss?
31:44Have you ever?
31:48Actually...
31:50No
31:57Okay, I was, uh, I was about to go in for it, but, um, Naomi's watching, so
32:02Oh, oh, oh, you're gonna let that stop you, huh?
32:05Uh-huh, yep, I am, I'm gonna let that stop me
32:06I'm gonna take a step back and I'm gonna stay professional
32:10In front of my friends
32:11If that's what you want
32:15But I was wondering
32:15You know how some people can tie a knot in a cherry stem with their tongues?
32:23You offering to do that?
32:24Well, I can't do all the work
32:25I'm initiating the first kiss
32:29Okay
32:31Deal
32:32Right here, now
32:35My apartment
32:37In the time it takes to get there
32:40Let's go
32:46Now, where were we?
33:16You know I enjoy acting like we're body language experts with TMZ
33:19But is there any chance we're on Ashley's date because you wanted to skip out on your hospital visit?
33:25Nope, Grayson has excellent hands
33:29Naomi, listen
33:30This gene thing is like a loaded gun being waved around your family
33:34It doesn't have to go off for you to feel the trauma
33:37Grayson isn't the only one with hands, shoulders, and ears here for you
33:41And knowing that is part of the reason I haven't fallen apart yet
33:45But can we please not worry about things we can't control?
33:49Sure, anything you want
33:50I want to put all my energy into getting grand better
33:54Making sure my friend is happy
33:56And right now, being third and fourth wheels with my husband
34:01Okay, hey
34:02Grayson, this is my husband Jacob
34:04Thanks for letting us crash, man
34:05Hey, happy to meet Ashley's people
34:08Uh, don't need us, but we're gonna take off?
34:12Where to?
34:15Ashley's gonna show me how she organizes her place
34:20You're welcome
34:22Thanks, Naomi, I really need it tonight
34:25Me too
34:28Okay
34:28Good to meet you, Jacob
34:30You as well
34:32How are my granddaughters?
34:34Better than their mother
34:36Blood tests are done
34:37Now just waiting and praying
34:42And you scheduled your follow-up?
34:44If the worst happens, you need to act quickly
34:46I will, I will, I just need a minute to process
34:50Only a minute
34:54Thanks for coming, Mom
34:56You are exactly what I needed
35:00And you always are
35:07Not only do you have to watch for Danny's demons
35:09You gotta look for the one waiting in the wings, too
35:14Yeah, I remembered your warning earlier today
35:17When that demon showed up in Danny's room
35:19Comforting her
35:20I know Bill Hamilton is lurking
35:23Oh, but I drew a line
35:24Yeah, I told Bill that Naomi and Chelsea might need him
35:27But Danny doesn't
35:29She already has a husband and that's me
35:31Good man
35:33Allow me to ease your worries where Danny's concerned, sir
35:36There is nothing or no one more important to me than she is
35:41Losing Danny to this disease or to someone else is not happening
35:45Hernan, it's time to go home
35:47Are you tired, my love?
35:49Relieved
35:51I see exactly what I hoped I'd see
35:54Our daughter is the same capable woman today as she was yesterday
35:58Like mother, like daughter
36:01This road may be tougher than we thought
36:04But then so are we
36:05And no one needs to pity either of us
36:08Cancer simply is no match for two formidable Dupree women
36:14And that's that
36:38That's for the profit
36:38That's why it's a tough
36:39.
36:39.
36:40.
