00:06Donnell, you are my new favorite person.
00:10Okay, why?
00:13You agreed to escort my niece to Cotillion.
00:15That took a huge weight off of our shoulders.
00:18No, it's okay.
00:19It gives me a chance to take my tux out of retirement.
00:22You know, Samantha's, she's pretty fun for a kid.
00:26She told me she was working for your new business.
00:28She's like a brand rep or something.
00:31Oh, our team brand ambassador.
00:34Right.
00:35And she told me you were in town for the dedication ceremony at the pre-clinic.
00:40I think it's really beautiful that your mom found a way to keep your dad's memory alive.
00:46Mom did that all right.
00:47How'd it go?
00:51Vinny, anyone ask? This room's closed for a private event. No exceptions.
00:54Sure thing, boss. Will do.
00:57Now we can have that conversation if you want.
01:00I didn't mean it had to happen right now, although I'm happy that you're taking this so seriously.
01:05Well, clearly it's been weighing on you ever since Deanna said...
01:09What were her words exactly?
01:12That I'm pathetic.
01:14I couldn't go six months without throwing myself at a man I hardly even know.
01:18Well, she's wrong, especially about the last part. You know me better than anyone. More than I'm comfortable with, to
01:25tell the truth.
01:25That's what I want. The truth. Even the details that you think don't matter.
01:30Why? To pass some arbitrary test of Deanna's?
01:34Deanna's comment made it more pressing, but you're right. It's been something that I've been wanting to talk about for
01:39a long while.
01:40I only held off because I knew it was an issue for you.
01:43But people who are in real relationships know these kinds of things about each other, and it helps them understand
01:50each other better.
01:50Are we having the relationship talk now? Should I be taking notes?
01:56For the next few minutes, I want this to be a no-snark zone. Agreed?
02:03Agreed.
02:05Me knowing more about you puts us on more equal footing.
02:08For example, I have no doubt that you thoroughly investigated my background when you targeted my business.
02:14You know it.
02:16Turnabout's fair play.
02:19Well, I can't argue with that.
02:21But I will say that I'm not really a believer in fair play.
02:26I play for keeps.
02:28You know it.
03:02I can't get over how incredible that ribbon-cutting ceremony was.
03:05You should have been there, Naomi.
03:07I'm sorry. I hate that I missed it, but I had a deposition this morning.
03:11But clearly, the clinic services are in high demand.
03:14The line was wrapped around the block when I got there later in the day.
03:17The turnout shows that we were able to get the word out even better than we had hoped.
03:21And not everybody was able to be seen by a doctor, but we handled all the most urgent cases and
03:25scheduled appointments for the rest.
03:27Nice.
03:28You know, when Leslie came to me with the idea for the free clinic, I had no idea it would
03:33turn into something so organized and efficient.
03:36She was smart enough to recruit Eva, who has been a huge help.
03:42And you.
03:43Yeah.
03:44Heard Leslie gave a speech.
03:46And I gotta say, it wasn't half bad.
03:50She really pulled from how tough it was to try and afford medical care back when she was struggling.
03:55Yeah, I'm sure it was.
03:56So hopefully this means she's not gonna just drop the clinic like an old toy when something more exciting comes
04:01along.
04:02Well, even if that happens, I'm sure you'll be able to get another donor to replace her.
04:08We could do that?
04:09Well, yeah.
04:10If you can show them the impact the clinic is having, you know, that they'll get a real bang for
04:15their charitable buck.
04:16And given your great start, it could be a real possibility.
04:22Well, I'm in the mood to celebrate.
04:24What do you say you, me, and Jacob go out?
04:26What time does the shift end?
04:46We gotta find a better location to do these pickups.
04:49Relax.
04:51Shanice and all the doctors you know have already gone home for work.
04:53And I actually just left on a break.
04:55In fact, I'm about to go meet up with her now.
04:58You need to stop wasting that girl's time.
05:06Hello, Cat.
05:07Wrong Richardson, Grandad.
05:09Oh, well, this Richardson is just as welcome and a very pleasant surprise.
05:15Grandad didn't tell you I was stopping by?
05:17I called her earlier to see if you two were up for visitors.
05:20She told me to let myself in.
05:21You'll have to forgive your grandmother, son.
05:23I don't doubt she really wanted to see you, but she's already asleep and probably not long
05:32after you two spoke.
05:34I'm glad she's getting some rest.
05:35I know how hard that latest round of chemo was on her.
05:39Yeah.
05:40Oh, and if Cat is coming to visit, too, I can text her and tell her it would be better
05:45for tomorrow.
05:46Indeed, I guess you hadn't heard.
05:49Your sister is our new house guest.
05:54Maybe Deanna was right, and I should have given her a heads up about my mom and Joey.
05:59Uh, no.
06:00The point of the ceremony was to honor your father, and that's where the focus needed to be.
06:06Besides, it is not your job to run interference for your mother.
06:11Also, I'm having a really hard time wrapping my head around Vanessa being romantically involved
06:17with Joey Armstrong.
06:18I mean, is there a chance you and Deanna misread the situation?
06:24I don't know.
06:25You know, every time I turn around, they're together, and I just can't help but feel like...
06:29There are feelings going on there.
06:30Yeah, exactly.
06:32You know, I was a little relieved you didn't know about it all.
06:35I was afraid the gossip would be all over town, but I guess it's going to be now since Deanna
06:40made such a scene at Uptown.
06:42I never thought anything like this would happen.
06:44Yeah, I can relate to that.
06:46I mean, it's not on the same level, but my parents have started dating other people since
06:52they're divorced, and my mom is really hitting the dating scene hard.
06:56She has, like, this whole new personality, Nicole After Dark.
07:00Wow.
07:01Right.
07:02But I am trying really hard to support her because my mom has been through it, and she deserves
07:11to be happy.
07:12Yeah, same here.
07:14I'm not going to lie, though.
07:14It is really hard to get used to.
07:17Oh, very same here.
07:19But I feel like even Nicole After Dark isn't seeing someone shady, though.
07:23Well, if it helps, Joey does have his good points.
07:28You know, I can never tell at the end of this, but I'm starting to kind of like the guy.
07:32Oh, well, I have a new bullet point.
07:36Joey really helped my family when Chelsea went missing.
07:40Beats, please.
07:41Uh, I went to him for some information on Chelsea's kidnapper, and he gave me some pushback,
07:48but it came through in the end.
07:50Wait, uh, Joey was involved with Chelsea's kidnapping?
07:53Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.
07:55Um, the kidnapper had an account with Joey's escort service, which meant he was able to give
08:02us access to her payment information.
08:04Wait, uh, sorry, Joey has an escort service?
08:07Heart Attach?
08:09Get it?
08:12Are you okay?
08:14I'm gonna go grab more coffee.
08:16All right.
08:17Yeah, I'll wait.
08:23Chelsea fam, we have a surprise for you.
08:25You guys went crazy over the Chelsea Cat dream bag.
08:29We seriously thought that the site was gonna crash.
08:31We could not have anticipated the outpour of support, and we can't thank you enough.
08:36We had so many of you in our DMs asking about the next drop.
08:39You asked, you begged, and you shall receive.
08:45Oh, my gosh.
08:47Ready?
08:48Yes.
08:49Yes.
08:50The Anita baby.
08:51Inspired by our grandmother, Anita Williams-Dupree.
08:55This newest addition to the Chelsea Cat line will be available today in red, white, and black.
09:02So click the link in our bio.
09:04Oh, who am I kidding?
09:06You know what to do.
09:08Love you guys.
09:10I've always felt it was unwise to be too forthcoming about my past.
09:16It's bad for business, among other things.
09:19I had hoped that by now you'd trust the last thing I want to do is hurt you.
09:26What do you want to know?
09:28Tell me about your father.
09:30We're not easing into this, are we?
09:32I don't know how long this window's going to stay open.
09:36Point taken.
09:38All right.
09:39The simplest way to sum up my father.
09:43Old school syndicate and proud of it.
09:46Where?
09:47New York.
09:49What was your relationship like?
09:51I was his apprentice.
09:54While other kids spent their summers playing stickball in the streets and going to amusement parks,
10:00I was riding shotgun with my father while he went on his numbers route.
10:04Or I was being schooled in the fine art of cleansing cash.
10:09Did you enjoy that?
10:12Nobody asked.
10:13It didn't matter.
10:15I went where I was taken and I did what I was told.
10:18Until you didn't.
10:20See, you do know me.
10:23So what happened when you mouthed off?
10:29My, uh, my father was of the Iron Fist school of parenting.
10:38At least with his son.
10:40He hit you.
10:41Depended on his mood.
10:44Sometimes, yeah.
10:46Other times it just seemed like I ceased to exist in his eyes.
10:50He would leave me at a stop with no way to get home.
10:55That son of a bitch.
10:56No.
10:57No, my grandmother was a fine woman.
11:02You know, the few times, and I mean very few times, that I made him laugh.
11:09That seemed like the highest praise I could ever receive.
11:14That's how desperate I was for his approval.
11:17How long did this abuse go on?
11:20Until I was big enough to put a stop to it.
11:24Permanently.
11:30I won't send Ashley your regards, since you're supposed to be out of town.
11:43Look, man, I meant what I said.
11:45Leave Ashley alone.
11:46It's not gonna happen for you two anyway.
11:48You don't know that?
11:49Did she ever tell you why her last relationship ended?
11:52Because she found out Derek was lying to her.
11:55She broke up with him that same night.
11:57And they were engaged.
11:58So what makes you think she gonna put up with your BS?
12:00Well, she'll never know about my sidekick.
12:02Problem solved.
12:02Ashley's a smart girl.
12:04Sooner or later, she'll see right through you.
12:06Just like your lawyer wife sees through you?
12:08She could.
12:09Which is why I'm staying away until my debt is paid.
12:11And why you need to end this thing with Ashley.
12:13If she finds out what's going on, it puts all of us at risk.
12:16Look, I'm being careful.
12:17There are plenty of other pretty girls in the DMV.
12:19Find someone else to mess with.
12:21This conversation's over.
12:26You know, I wish we could go out tonight, but Jacob's out of town doing some specialized training.
12:32Oh, is this that forensics program he was telling me about a few weeks back?
12:37You know, he didn't really get into the details with me.
12:40I guess that's why I haven't heard from him in a minute.
12:43And here I was, thinking it was because you guys have been spending all your time with Ash and her
12:48new guy.
12:49I did see the two of them recently.
12:53And yes, they are still going out, if that's what you're really asking.
12:56I already knew that.
12:58She brought him by the clinic this morning before the ribbon cutting.
13:01She wants to sign up as a volunteer.
13:03See, I think that's amazing.
13:05That Ashley is determined to support you and the clinic.
13:08Yeah, me too.
13:10It was great seeing her.
13:12Just not with Grayson.
13:15Off the record, what do you really think of the guy?
13:20How can you be so calm when your company's making so many sales?
13:24Oh, I am nowhere near calm.
13:27Ever since our first purse hit the market, it never gets old.
13:33Um, I don't say this often, but enough about me.
13:38I might have messed up mentioning Heart Attach.
13:41I know Joey doesn't like to blast the fact that he owns it, so maybe don't share that tidbit with
13:47your mom.
13:47I feel like she already knows.
13:49I was telling her a story the other day about Heart Attach.
13:53Because some students on campus use it.
13:57And she got all tense.
13:59She said she heard about it from a garden party or something.
14:01Well, that could be true.
14:02A lot goes on behind those gates.
14:05I don't know.
14:05Her explanation felt a lot more like an excuse to me.
14:09I feel like she might know about Heart Attach through Joey.
14:12Which means she must have some idea that Joey owns it.
14:17Is she in so deep with him that she's keeping his secrets?
14:19Well, it could be as simple as she just really wants you to like her new boyfriend.
14:25It's so weird to picture her with someone who's the complete opposite of my dad.
14:30I mean, folks looked up to my father.
14:32Well, until they found out what a complete mess he made of his life right before he died.
14:36Uh-uh.
14:37People still respect your father.
14:39He was a good man and a great doctor.
14:43Those were the only parts of him I ever saw.
14:45My mom and him, they kept all the gambling and all the bad stuff hidden away.
14:51Now I feel like she's probably hiding more stuff from me.
14:54Like I'm a kid who can't handle the truth.
14:56To be fair, it seems like your sister's having a hard time dealing right now.
15:00I'm not my sister, though.
15:02And it's time my mother start to recognize that.
15:05When you say you stopped your father permanently...
15:09Well, I didn't kill him.
15:13I'm glad you showed that much restraint.
15:15He doesn't sound like very pleasant company.
15:18Oh, no.
15:19He could really turn on the charm for some people.
15:22Yeah, with his son.
15:24Yeah, he was a total hard ass.
15:27With his wife.
15:28He was the boss, but had a gentler touch.
15:34And with my sister.
15:36I tell you, there was nothing too good for daddy's little sweetheart.
15:40You never told me you have a sister.
15:44Well, there's a reason for that.
15:52If you've accepted Ashley dating other people, why are the questions about Grayson?
15:57I just want you to take on the guy.
15:58You've spent more time around him than I have.
16:02I don't really know him well, but he really seems to like Ashley.
16:06And vice versa.
16:08You notice anything odd about him?
16:12No, but I get the feeling you have.
16:14I know this is not going to sound like some huge red flag.
16:18But when Ash brought him by the clinic, he wandered off.
16:24Do you mean he left?
16:27More like when exploring.
16:29Gave himself his own tour of the clinic.
16:31And not just pop his head into the door kind of thing either.
16:34When Ash was ready to leave, we had to go hunting for the guy.
16:38Maybe he was just trying to be polite.
16:40Give you and Ashley some privacy.
16:42Plus, there had to be other people checking the place out.
16:45Reporters.
16:46Volunteers familiarizing themselves with the layout.
16:48People with a reason to be curious.
16:50Okay, so what are you accusing him of?
16:52You think he took something?
16:54No, I checked.
16:55Seriously?
16:56You counted all the cotton swabs?
16:59Thanks.
17:01No, look.
17:02I know it sounds like I'm being jealous or paranoid or both.
17:05And trust me.
17:06I have tried to talk myself out of this feeling I have about the guy.
17:11What feeling?
17:13Just keep an eye out on Ash, okay?
17:16That's all I'm asking.
17:19Of course.
17:20That goes without saying.
17:25Hey, there you are.
17:28Yeah, sorry I'm late.
17:30The elevator got stuck.
17:33Well, remind me to tell you about the time I got stuck in that elevator.
17:40You bought me a cup of coffee.
17:41I need to pay you back.
17:43Just get it the next time.
17:45That's what you said the last time.
17:47Is it?
17:48Look, I appreciate the gesture, but I can afford a cup of coffee.
17:52Hey, don't make me sorry that I told you about my financial situation.
17:58You can get it the next time, I promise.
18:01I always want you to be honest with me.
18:04Of course.
18:07So, did you hear how the clinic opening went?
18:10Oh, yeah.
18:11I was actually just reading about it.
18:12It sounds like it was a huge success.
18:14Just so happy for Derek and, quite frankly, a little bit relieved.
18:19It sounds like you were worried that he was going to screw things up.
18:22No, not at all.
18:23I just, I'm glad he has something positive to focus on.
18:27I've been getting worried about him.
18:30So, if I wasn't in the picture, do you think you and him would have worked things out?
18:37Where is that coming from?
18:39Was your sister older or younger?
18:41Younger, younger, and there was a cute kid, adept at getting what she wanted.
18:47Well, I take it your father was completely smitten and she knew it?
18:51Yes and no.
18:53I think she was a bit too much like him for his taste.
18:59Head strong, ambitious.
19:03She wanted dad to put her talents to good use for the family business.
19:08He wouldn't hear of it.
19:10Let me guess.
19:12You would have gladly changed places with her.
19:15In a heartbeat.
19:17My mother wanted me to go to college and study finance and game theory.
19:22I can see that.
19:24My father couldn't.
19:26And my mother always deferred to him, so.
19:31In the end, I wound up studying game theory in my own way.
19:36What happened to Heather?
19:39We lost touch.
19:42You know what happened to my mother.
19:45The plastic surgery.
19:47I'm sorry you lost her, Joey.
19:50She thought her beauty was the only real power she had in the world.
19:55She became a slave to it.
19:59And that is about as much family history as I can take for one night.
20:06I hope that satisfies your curiosity.
20:09I certainly feel like I know you better now.
20:12And?
20:14Your father's lucky I wasn't around back then.
20:18I would have taken that sucker out for what he did to you.
20:26I love you, Joey.
20:30I'm never going to let you go.
20:37Now, I can understand why Aunt Danny's guest house might feel a little cramped, what with Madison and Chelsea engaged.
20:44And we certainly don't want Kat moving in with Tomas for the wrong reasons.
20:49But why Kat didn't just get her own place or move back home with Mom?
20:53Now, I could have asked you those very same questions when you chose to move in with us when your
21:00marriage was on the rocks.
21:02But Gran wasn't sick then.
21:05I think that's part of your sister's reasoning.
21:08She wants to be useful while your grandmother's undergoing treatment.
21:12Now, don't get me wrong.
21:14I love my baby sis.
21:15But nurturing?
21:17She is not.
21:19But she's very good company.
21:22And I'm grateful for that.
21:26Now, tell me about how the campaign is going.
21:29I have a problem.
21:31And I'm not sure this is the right time to bring it up.
21:34Please.
21:36I'm looking for something to think about other than cancer.
21:41It has to do with Joey Armstrong.
21:49Has Armstrong approached you with some new demand?
21:53I haven't heard from him since Smitty returned a campaign donation and told him to back off.
21:59Make no mistake.
22:01Joey wants you to win.
22:03Otherwise, his leverage means nothing.
22:06An information on me that he can use whenever he chooses.
22:10Well, it's been true for a while.
22:13But it didn't stop you from going forward with your campaign.
22:18Not this campaign.
22:19But I'm thinking ahead.
22:22Don't worry.
22:24I'm not resurrecting my presidential ambitions.
22:27But the party and the support of some hefty donors,
22:31they approached me last week for a possible Senate run.
22:36Approached?
22:36They were energized and encouraging.
22:40And you are?
22:42Worried.
22:43They can't afford to lose this seat.
22:45And on the face of it, I'm a shoo-in.
22:49Declining would raise quite a few eyebrows.
22:52And I have Joey Armstrong just waiting in the wings to swoop in and demand favors.
23:00Donnell.
23:01Evening, Joey.
23:03I'm going to leave you and your mother to catch up.
23:06Benny will see to it that you're not disturbed.
23:09Thanks.
23:09For everything.
23:12Think nothing of it.
23:17What happened with Deanna?
23:20I followed her to Orphe jeans and tried to talk to her,
23:23but she was too angry to hear anything I had to say.
23:26I hope that anger wasn't directed at you.
23:28Some of it was.
23:30Yeah.
23:31I mean, she was pretty pissed at me.
23:32I didn't tell her about you and Joey.
23:35I am so sorry you got caught in the middle of this baby,
23:38especially at a time when you two need each other so much.
23:40She'll calm down.
23:42Eventually.
23:44And then I'll try again.
23:46Where is she now?
23:48She'll be back on campus by now.
23:50I made sure she got on the train safely.
23:58You are the best brother.
24:02And son.
24:05I just think to myself what dad would want me to do.
24:08It makes me feel like he's still here,
24:10watching over us all.
24:14Are you worried because I'm volunteering at Derek's clinic?
24:18Because, you know, I'm only doing that because they need the extra help.
24:20I don't have a problem with that, believe me.
24:23But when you said how much you still care about him,
24:27it made me wonder.
24:29Hey.
24:31Stop wondering.
24:33Derek and I were just friends.
24:35We tried to be something more for a long time,
24:38and we couldn't make it work for a lot of reasons.
24:43You have nothing to be jealous of.
24:45And as for Derek,
24:46he knows better than to not even discuss you with me now.
24:51Well, what about your other friends?
24:53I mean, they must have opinions about us.
24:55Well, Naomi and Shanice are just glad that that whole Derek drama is over.
25:01What about Jacob?
25:03Well, Jacob hardly knows you yet, so I don't think he has an opinion one way or the other.
25:11He's away training at that work thing, right?
25:14Uh-huh.
25:17But enough about me and my friends.
25:19What about you?
25:20How are you?
25:21You went to see her mom last night, right?
25:23Yeah, yeah.
25:24Yeah, that's a good thing I did.
25:26They are super understaffed at the assisted facility.
25:33They had given her her meal, but I had forgot to check on her afterwards,
25:37so she hadn't eaten.
25:39I had to feed her.
25:42The tremors in her hands have gone so bad that she can't feed herself anymore.
25:46So.
25:47I'm so sorry that her symptoms are getting worse.
25:50You know, maybe they just need to up the dosage of her medication,
25:54or it could be her diet, too.
25:56Too much protein can really reduce the efficacy of Parkinson's meds.
26:00Yeah, I mean, I'm trying to stay on top of her,
26:02but I'm picking up an extra shift at the hospital tonight,
26:04and I can't, I can't even check in on her.
26:09You're doing the best you can.
26:12And I'm sure she appreciates it.
26:16I appreciate you.
26:22I hate that Deanna is so upset,
26:25but I don't know what else I could have done.
26:29Short of asking Joey to stay away from the dedication ceremony altogether.
26:34Well.
26:35He offered to stay away out of consideration for Deanna's feelings,
26:40but that would have just been so unfair to him
26:43after all he has given to this clinic,
26:46including cold heart cash.
26:49It was his idea to dedicate the clinic to your father's memory in the first place.
26:53Please don't keep saying that in front of Deanna.
26:56She doesn't see it as some noble gesture on Joey's part.
26:59In fact, she thinks he's being manipulative.
27:02Did you tell her that that's just not true?
27:04No, because my focus wasn't on defending Joey,
27:07but on making sure Deanna could get through this whole situation.
27:10Of course.
27:11Of course, Deanna is the priority.
27:15I just...
27:16I don't think she would be taking this so hard
27:19if she understood how kind and supportive Joey has been.
27:23If you could just explain that to her.
27:26All Deanna sees when she looks at Joey
27:28is someone who's trying to take her father's place in her mother's life.
27:33No one could ever do that.
27:37The experiences that your father and I had,
27:40getting pregnant with twins,
27:44your and Deanna's birth, raising the two of you,
27:48those are experiences that
27:51will never come again
27:52and that could never be replaced.
27:56I hear you.
27:57But I'm not the one with the problem here.
28:00Well, Deanna may hate any man you're with,
28:04it definitely doesn't help that Joey owns the casino
28:06where Dad practically drank himself into an early grave.
28:09That is not true, and it is not...
28:10Not Joey's fault.
28:12I get that.
28:13But put yourself in Deanna's shoes for one second.
28:17She feels like she's trading in her father,
28:19who she adored, her hero,
28:21for some sleazy crook.
28:26I'm sorry, am I interrupting?
28:29I hope you won't be insulted by what I'm about to say.
28:33But that concern is somewhat naive.
28:38How so?
28:40Everyone who makes it into higher office
28:42has people that he's beholden to.
28:46It could be an army of small donors,
28:49or a small ring of billionaires.
28:53More than likely, it's some combination of both.
28:57The question you should be asking is,
29:02who will I listen to?
29:05Who will I fight for?
29:06My constituents, obviously.
29:09Good.
29:10If push came to shove,
29:13would you be strong enough to resist
29:14the political pressure of Armstrong?
29:16I believe I've shown I can,
29:19and I would.
29:21I agree.
29:23And I think Armstrong's smart enough
29:25to know that, too.
29:27Wait, I know you're not telling me
29:29I should trust that guy.
29:31The one thing you can trust
29:33is that Armstrong will always
29:36protect his own self-interest.
29:40And right now,
29:41that means protecting you.
29:44What does Smitty have to say
29:46about all of this?
29:47I wanted to get your opinion first.
29:49If you were strongly opposed
29:51to the idea of a Senate campaign,
29:53it wouldn't have gone any further.
29:55But don't worry.
29:56I will talk to my husband.
29:57I've learned my lesson
29:59where Smitty and Secrets are concerned.
30:02There's no rush for the two of you
30:03to make this decision.
30:06First call, I'm guessing,
30:09Scudder and Drayton.
30:11Those were the two party leaders
30:13that approached me.
30:14Yeah.
30:15Tell them right now
30:15you need to focus on winning
30:17your current election.
30:19Which is nothing but the truth.
30:21I'm giving this race
30:22everything I have.
30:25Oh, hi, brother.
30:27Hey, sis.
30:28Nice of you to pay us a visit.
30:30I assume Granddad told you
30:32I'm living here now.
30:33I just found out.
30:35I wish I would have known sooner
30:36I would have brought you
30:37a housewarming gift, Cat Brad.
30:38Oh, well, the only gift I need
30:40is you clearing out
30:42that hideous exercise equipment
30:44from the wing where you were staying.
30:46I have much better plans
30:48for that space.
30:51Hopefully sometime soon
30:52you'll have time
30:53for more than just a coffee break.
30:55But I totally understand.
30:57You have a lot of demands
30:58on your time right now.
31:00Soon you will, too.
31:01I mean, you're going to be
31:02volunteering at the clinic
31:03on top of your
31:03regular work schedule here.
31:06We're just going to have to figure out
31:08how to spend time
31:08with each other wherever
31:09and whenever we can.
31:12I like the sound of that.
31:15And I am very happy
31:17that you're willing
31:17to be flexible.
31:19What else do you like about me?
31:21Well, you are smart.
31:26And you're funny.
31:31And you're honest.
31:33That is a super big green flag for me.
31:37Shall I go on?
31:39No, no, no, no.
31:40That about covers it.
31:42Okay.
31:45I have to get back
31:46to Mrs. Klein.
31:54You're on the wrong floor.
31:56And late coming back
31:57from your break.
31:59Is this thing with Ashley
32:01becoming a distraction?
32:22No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
32:43I picked up some sweet treats
32:45for you and Gran
32:46from Caffeine Fix.
32:47Oh, thank you, sweetheart.
32:49But with your grandmother's
32:51appetite these days...
32:52I know, which is why
32:54I got her some of their
32:55hazelnut mousse.
32:57It's delicious
32:57and it's easy on the stomach.
32:59Apple turnover for you?
33:02Aren't you thoughtful?
33:05All right.
33:05Well, she's asleep right now,
33:07but I'll put this in the fridge
33:08and we can enjoy our treats
33:10together tomorrow.
33:12Hey.
33:14Night, great guy.
33:14Good night.
33:15Good night, Martin.
33:18I'm surprised you're not off
33:20headlining some campaign fundraiser.
33:22I'm allowed the occasional night off
33:24to recharge
33:25and check in with family.
33:27Well, you can rely on me
33:29to keep you updated
33:30with the Grands.
33:31I will be right here
33:32making sure
33:33they have everything they need.
33:34Oh, so you're in charge now.
33:37Granddad and I
33:38are working on a plan
33:40to get construction
33:41to stop across the street.
33:42It's much too disruptive
33:43and Grand needs her rest.
33:46Oh, bless your heart.
33:47I love that you're pitching in
33:49and doing your part.
33:50I just hope
33:52you're not disappointed
33:53when the rankings
33:54never change.
33:56Rankings?
33:57No matter what you do,
33:59you will never dethrone
34:01the favorite grandchild.
34:04Ah, we will see about that.
34:07Donnell was just letting me know
34:09how Deanna is feeling.
34:11She's still pretty upset.
34:13Well, of course she is.
34:15Grief can rip your heart out.
34:16I think it's more
34:17than just grief, though.
34:18Of course.
34:19She's dealing with
34:20the unfairness
34:21of how her father died
34:23and so young.
34:24That's not what I meant.
34:26We're all grieving.
34:28We're all mad as hell,
34:29but Deanna's rage
34:31was on a whole different level, Mom.
34:32I mean, it was white hot
34:34and she was so harsh
34:35in a way I've never
34:36seen her act before.
34:37I mean, to have made
34:39that scene in public like that.
34:41You're right.
34:43Deanna's passionate,
34:44but she normally hates
34:46drawing attention
34:47to herself.
34:48Yeah.
34:49That's why I think
34:50there might be something
34:51else going on with her.
34:54I would never let
34:55my personal life
34:58affect my work performance.
35:01I think we both
35:02know better than that.
35:04Your personal obligations
35:06are the very reason
35:07why you need this job
35:09so badly.
35:10Rapid response from 17...
35:12So, I suggest
35:13you focus
35:14on keeping your employer happy
35:17rather than your girlfriend.
35:19Dr. Roberts to bed...
35:21I can do both.
35:22No complaints so far, right?
35:26Well,
35:28if there were,
35:31you'd already be dead.
35:54next on Beyond the Gates.
35:57Damn, Gina.
35:57I've been starving
35:58for weeks.
36:00Well, maybe we should
36:00start with an appetizer then.
36:02Stop crossing the line.
36:03You two are not going
36:04to believe who has been
36:05hijacking our wedding plans.
36:07Who?
36:08I am a grown woman.
36:11Why don't you give her
36:11some space?
36:12And I will leave
36:13when I am good and ready.
36:14Tell me what happened.
36:15Where is he?
36:16Construction on your house
36:18has been shut down.
36:19You better not mean it.
36:26For more football,
36:26you better not be
36:27based on Matری
36:31On Fiat
36:33?
36:34Or
36:35?
36:41The
36:41of
36:41?
36:41?
36:43?
36:44?
36:45?
36:46?
36:49?
36:49?
36:50?
36:52You
