01:15One person's success
01:17Is another person's definition of failure

04:37doesn't mean you give up i'm making a choice i won't keep battling cancer if it's gonna be like this
04:46sweetheart you can't predict that this torture will get even more agonizing given the past
04:55it's a safe guess anita i have had an amazing life one that has surpassed my wildest dreams
05:03i've seen the world sang to sold out audiences married the love of my life and raised a beautiful family
05:11why are you speaking in the past gents because chemo has taught me something
05:18that i care more about the quality of my life than its length
05:24these treatments are destroying my body and my spirit
05:30i will have painkillers on hand
05:35but i will live the remaining
05:38days as i see fit
05:42remaining
05:43that way
05:45i will go out on my own terms
05:48rather than suffer
05:51for god knows how long
05:53until the inevitable happens
05:56it is not fair to me
05:58or you
06:00now i want you to ask danny and nicole
06:03to come in here
06:05i want them to witness me signing the dnr
06:14you and randy makes me think he has some type of ulterior motives
06:20unless you put him up to something
06:23wait you think i suggest that he spin the block
06:25what do i get out of that
06:26i don't know it's strange
06:29i mean his sudden interest
06:31especially since he's all up into church now
06:37uh-uh unless there's some high stakes bingo games in the basement that can't be true
06:44i swear he told me that he's going to services and everything
06:50it's like that man is at war with who he is versus who he wants to be
06:53how else would you explain that behavior
06:57he's either going through a midlife crisis
06:59or he's working the angle
07:01what do you think
07:04oh here we go
07:05look i gotta get back at it

10:44in her mind
10:46in her mind
10:48daddy
10:49daddy
10:51it seems your mother has
10:54lost her will to live

11:02she wants to quit her chemotherapy
11:04what
11:04if she does that the cancer's going
11:07she intends to sign a do not resuscitate order
11:11oh come on
11:13she wants to die on her own terms
11:16she wants to give up
11:18you can't let her do that

11:35yes
11:35we will
11:36this will not be the end
11:41at this point i'll take all the help i can get
11:51look the only agenda randy has
11:54is satisfying his own horniness
11:56if he's got some maniacal plan that involves getting you in his bed
11:59i don't know about it
12:00look i got your damn charges dropped
12:02don't i deserve some credit
12:03you came through

18:02anita's battle
18:02with cancer
18:03isn't going
18:03well
18:06i just don't
18:07understand
18:07she seemed
18:08so strong
18:09in her interview
18:10you know i was
18:11thinking
18:11if anita
18:13actually
18:14dies
18:16yes
18:17i don't know
18:18how chelsea
18:19and naomi
18:19will be able
18:20to handle it
18:20i'd probably
18:21fall apart
18:21myself
18:22that's
18:23understandable
18:24i mean anita
18:25has always been
18:25like a mother
18:26to you
18:28if
18:30that happens
18:32i'll be here
18:33to put you
18:33back together
18:35danny tested
18:36positive for that
18:36broca gene
18:37i had a stroke
18:38which puts me
18:39at risk
18:39for all sorts
18:40of issues
18:40and not to
18:40mention that
18:41weird blood test
18:41that's reminding
18:42me that
18:42things can
18:43change at
18:44any time
18:45just
18:48as much
18:48as i hate
18:49to admit it
18:50i'm already
18:51vulnerable
18:52you know i may
18:53not be here
18:53for the kids
18:54i already have
18:56not to mention
18:56a brand new
18:57human you and
18:57i could bring
18:58into the world
19:00what are you
19:01saying
19:02with all this
19:03to consider
19:05i'm not sure
19:06i want to
19:07have another
19:08child anymore
19:11is this the
19:12female client
19:13you mentioned
19:13before
19:14the one
19:15whose case
19:15haley got
19:16billed
19:16to do
19:16pro bono
19:17same one
19:18and you got
19:19the charges
19:19dropped
19:21but i just
19:22can't
19:23shake the
19:24suspicion
19:25that there's
19:25more to her
19:25story than
19:26she's letting
19:26on
19:27what's bothering
19:28you about it
19:28whenever you're
19:29prepping a defense
19:30the first step
19:31is a background
19:32check
19:32usually that report
19:33would show
19:34former addresses
19:36jobs schools
19:37outstanding debt
19:38things like that
19:39and hers
19:39her client report
19:41came back showing
19:42hardly anything
19:43a birth certificate
19:44a single job
19:45in her entire
19:46employment history
19:47is it possible
19:48she's only ever
19:49worked and lived
19:50in one place
19:51maybe but
19:52we also run
19:53checks on a
19:54client's digital
19:54footprint
19:55usually that'll
19:56turn up
19:56website subscriptions
19:58several social
19:59media accounts
20:00but this woman
20:00one account
20:01with a couple
20:02of posts
20:03that is weird
20:04i don't know
20:05anybody who's
20:06that far off
20:07the grid
20:07you don't think
20:08i'm overreacting
20:09not at all
20:11i've heard enough
20:12crime podcasts
20:13to know
20:14nobody's spotless
20:15unless they're
20:16hiding something

20:19different identity

26:55many more chapters
26:57in the book
26:58of debris
27:01don't you want
27:02to see what
27:02happens next
27:07you think that
27:08maybe she's been
27:09lying about who
27:10she is this
27:10entire time
27:11was the case
27:12serious
27:14serious enough
27:15that a conviction
27:15would have meant
27:16multiple years in
27:17prison
27:17yeah
27:19was it
27:19lynette wise
27:20embezzlement
27:21can't confirm
27:23privileged

27:37that happens
27:37occasionally
27:38after that
27:40he got the
27:41charges dropped
27:42why would he
27:43do that
27:45apparently it
27:46was a request
27:47from hayley
27:48since
27:49this client
27:50was with her
27:51when she was
27:52mugged
27:52hayley felt like
27:54she owed her

31:24to me
31:24to me
31:26to me
31:27to me
31:27to me
31:27to me
31:28Look, I got things going on, so what does your highness need now?
31:31Okay, newsflash.
31:33Now, this gonna sound crazy, but I am so grateful for Danny.
31:39Thanks to those airhead daughters she gave him and her crappy DNA,
31:43Bill no longer wants me to push out his big-ass baby.
31:48Okay, as if you could actually do that.
31:50You still sneaking the pill?
31:51Of course.
31:53You still hooking out with Lynette?
31:55Yeah.
31:56She told me a little notice would have been nice.
31:59What did you expect I was gonna do?
32:01I told you I would keep Lynette in check,
32:04and she's hell-bent on staying in town,
32:06so this way I get to stay in her head and her bed.
32:10So pillow talk, espionage is your grand plan?
32:14But Lynette ain't dumb.
32:16She's more suspicious now than ever.
32:17And what's this about you going to church?
32:20Never mind that.
32:21Look, she tried to trick me by implying that you got tipsy
32:25and let our plans slip.
32:27The fact that she's still questioning us
32:30after getting everything she wants only means one thing.
32:33You're right.
32:35She's a threat.
32:37And now that the U.S. Attorney is no longer pursuing the case,
32:42I'm expected to just move on.
32:44Speaking from personal experience,
32:46that's difficult when you know someone isn't being held responsible for their crimes.
32:52Feels like I've been played.
32:55So what are you gonna do?
32:58Not sure.
32:59But I know I want the full story.
33:02So you seriously rather spend the night with lions, tigers, and bears
33:06than room service and functional bathrooms?
33:09Okay, how about we meet in the middle?
33:11Have you ever heard of glamping?
33:14You would think all of the years of me rejecting his camping idea
33:18would have made an impression.
33:20Ted, not all women think that roughing it in the wilderness is fun.
33:24See?
33:25She gets it.
33:26We all have our own definitions of R&R.
33:31Mother told me that she had a chat with you.
33:34Ah, yes.
33:35She gave me the push I needed.
33:37Although I didn't love how it came about.
33:41Janice, I know you're aware of the decision my mother was facing.
33:45I'm happy to relay that she has changed her mind.
33:49She is gonna keep fighting for her life.
33:51Hopefully we have her around for many, many years to come.
33:55All right.
34:00What are you doing here?
34:01I got your text.
34:03Figured I'd come in person to tell you mom's doing better.
34:06Oh, okay, good.
34:07Thanks for the update, but you could have just called.
34:11Today was hard.
34:13And after I talked, I figured
34:16you were the right person to come to.
34:19You know, Mother's always been this pillar of strength.
34:23Even in hard times, she's maintained composure.
34:27She stood tall, leaned on her principles.
34:32But today,
34:35she wanted to give up.
34:38She wanted to quit chemo
34:40and let whatever would happen, happen.
34:44I'm trying to convince her to stay with us.
34:47I'm glad you did.
34:51I mean, this whole thing has got me in some sort of existential crisis, too.
34:57In what way?
35:00No.
35:02Hayley and I have been, you know, talking about trying for a baby.
35:06But I'm having second thoughts.
35:08You know, it hit home that I might not even be around to raise him or her.
35:12So now you have an upset wife on top of everything else?
35:16No, no.
35:17Actually, she was surprisingly understanding.
35:21She sees how affected I am by Anita's condition.
35:25She knows, like everyone else,
35:26she mothers one in a million.
35:29You fight dirty,
35:32getting the girls to remind me of
35:34all the things I have to look forward to.
35:37It was a by any means necessary situation.
35:41I've always been able to find the silver lining,
35:44to see the glasses half full.
35:48You met a new version of yourself today.
35:51This illness is changing me.
35:55And the pain will come back.
35:58And we'll do whatever it takes
36:00to make you comfortable as you fight this.
36:03Okay.
36:06Thank you for not giving up.
36:24Thank you for not giving up.
