00:04Previously on Beyond the Gates.
00:06May I please have your permission to date your daughter?
00:12Come on, Thelma.
00:13I'm taking you on a road trip.
00:15So, you were saying?
00:17You have outdone yourself, neighbor.
00:20You ready to step things up?
00:21What's the pickup point?
00:22Carlin Memorial.
00:23Contact will meet you in the south elevator.
00:25Your heart is so cold that Joey loads you in the freezer every night.
00:29Your heart's so empty, I can hear the wind whistling through it.
00:33Now that the man responsible has managed to get off the grid, I guess I'm just freaking out.
00:40Uh, Naomi, you do know that we're going to Uptown and not the Met Gala, right?
00:44Well, I couldn't decide what to wear and I feel like dressing up.
00:48Help?
00:50Okay.
00:51Uh, what did we do?
00:52Oh, there.
00:53Uh, this paired with, um, oh, yes.
01:02I am so glad you inherited Mom's eye for fashion because this eats down, baby sis.
01:09Okay, you're spending way too much time with Kat and me, but you ain't wrong, Queen.
01:13Jacob won't be able to keep his hands off you in this.
01:16Is it coming tonight?
01:17Uh, no.
01:19He's doing some special training out of town.
01:21Uh-huh.
01:23I thought I saw those flowers over there.
01:25For a second, I thought that they were an apology bouquet.
01:29Like Dad used to send Mom?
01:31Yep.
01:32But then I remembered who my brother-in-law is.
01:35Jacob wouldn't apologize after the fact with some arrangement that his assistant bought.
01:39You two communicate directly and face your problems head on, like a real partnership.
01:45Well, that's really nice of you to say.
01:48And no apologies necessary.
01:50We're all good.
01:51The flowers are just Jacob's way of letting me know that he's thinking of me while we're apart.
01:59This is like being at the therapist and they won't tell you what they're writing down in their little notebook.
02:04How do you know?
02:05You've been going to a therapist behind our backs?
02:07You don't have to go to know, Dad.
02:09Dad, just give me something, please.
02:14This draft is much better than the last.
02:17You're almost there.
02:18And I promise to go over all my notes when I'm finished.
02:23Yeah, because AP Psychology has been way more challenging than I thought it would be.
02:28And thanks for helping.
02:30Well, what good is having a professional writer in the house if you can't help with essays?
02:35A few more tweaks, and then you will be done with this part of the project tonight,
02:39and we will celebrate with the biggest piece of cheesecake you can stomach.
02:44With fresh strawberries and whipped cream?
02:46Oh, is there any other way?
02:48Your papa's already out getting a cake right now.
02:51Oh.
02:52You are so stupid.
03:27You are so stupid.
03:38Hi.
03:38Pick up order for...
03:40Congressman Martin Richardson.
03:41Right away.
03:48Hey, Bill.
03:49I heard about Haley.
03:51How's she doing?
03:53Well, you know, she's trying to work through it.
03:56You know, it's been rough, though.
03:59She's at home right now, getting some much-needed rest.
04:02I can't believe she was attacked.
04:04Yeah.
04:04Yeah, none of us can.
04:05You know?
04:06I mean, physically she's healing, but emotionally...
04:10It takes a little longer.
04:11Yeah, it does, especially when you don't feel like you've gotten justice.
04:15You know, idiot judge released him pending trial on his own recognizance.
04:19I wonder if I ever get my hands on that pump.
04:21You're justifiably frustrated.
04:23Yeah.
04:25Yeah, well, she'll be okay in time.
04:27Thanks for asking.
04:29You mind some unsolicited advice?
04:32It depends on what it is.
04:35Keep a close eye on Haley.
04:37The impact of that kind of violence can stay with you a lot longer than you think
04:42and surface in ways you wouldn't expect.
04:48I am not going anywhere.
04:51Maybe we ditch Tomas and Madison and just grow old together.
04:56Share the studio until we're gray.
04:59You know what?
05:00Deal.
05:03Hi, sweetheart.
05:05Your text said you'd be working late.
05:07I know you've been reading my text, but it's nice to finally get a response.
05:12It's been a while.
05:14I'm sorry.
05:15I was going to get back to you, but, you know, it's been a lot going on.
05:20So I've heard.
05:21Vanessa said you're touring condos.
05:24Want to tell me why?
05:26I saw Derek's announcement about the clinic's grand opening.
05:30He did a good job.
05:32As I expected.
05:34You would have been better.
05:35And Leslie?
05:38Exponentially worse.
05:42So, whose idea was it to partner with Garland Memorial?
05:46I suggested it, and Derek arranged it with the hospital.
05:50Now we can plan the dedication ceremony.
05:53I assume you'll be in attendance?
05:56A dedication to the late Dr. McBride?
05:59I wouldn't miss it.
05:59Wonderful.
06:01Donnell has already RSVP'd.
06:03He's trying to convince Deanna to come along this time, too.
06:06You can finally meet her.
06:10Come again?
06:11I'm also going to make a reservation at Fiola.
06:15A culinary enthusiast like you will love it.
06:20Vanessa, restaurant choices aside, do you really think it's the best time to introduce your grieving, heartbroken daughter to her
06:29mother's lover?
06:38Have a seat, man.
06:44Listen, I appreciate your words of wisdom, but I don't think those situations are the same.
06:49You know, what happened with you and Vernon on the side of that road?
06:52You know, that was extreme.
06:54It escalated fast.
06:55But Haley, she just got hurt.
06:57She was shaking up a bit, but it was over within seconds.
07:00If there's one thing I've learned, it's you never really know what would spark a trauma response.
07:09What do you suggest?
07:10Stay present.
07:12Pay attention to not only what she says, but what she does.
07:16Violent instances like this could trigger a psychological reaction that can be overlooked and dismissed.
07:23Yeah, well, she's already had at least one panic attack already.
07:27She's having trouble sleeping.
07:29Mostly, she's just overly emotional.
07:32She's too afraid to leave the house without me.
07:34Has she tried talking to someone?
07:37I just wish she had more social support.
07:39You know what I'm saying?
07:40Chelsea was able to get over her kidnapping ordeal by relying on her community.
07:45A community Haley will unfortunately never have at Fairmont Crest.
07:50Sorry for the delay, Congressman.
07:52No worries.
07:55Look, Bill, if you need anything, please let me know.
07:59Yeah, I appreciate that.
08:04Obviously, I wouldn't introduce you as my lover.
08:08For now, all Deanna would need to know is that we're friends and business partners.
08:12If she's anything like her mother, she'll see right through that.
08:16Or she could take her twin brother's approach and realize how important you are to me.
08:20Vanessa, everything you've told me about her, I just don't think that this dinner is in her best interest.
08:25You're the one that told me that her grief's been overwhelming.
08:29Joey, I appreciate how concerned you are about my daughter.
08:33But I'd like to think I know her better than you.
08:36She's getting better.
08:38On FaceTime the other night, she was like a ray of sunshine.
08:42Laughing and joyful and telling me stories about her friends.
08:47And yet, she still hasn't set foot in her childhood home because she knows her father's never coming back.
08:54I think she needs more time.
09:00You're reading this wrong.
09:03My kids have had their worlds upended with all these secrets that have come to light since Doug's passing.
09:10Now you want me to add another one?
09:13If she finds out about us before I have the chance to talk to her myself, she'll never forgive me.
09:21Anyway, the dedication won't be for a couple of days.
09:24We don't have to settle on it right now.
09:28You're leaving?
09:29I am.
09:31But not because of our disagreement.
09:32I have plans tonight.
09:34See you after?
09:36If you're lucky.
09:55Hey, Grayson.
09:57Uh, I know you got stuck at work late, but
10:00I'm at Uptown, and I thought of you.
10:03And I think you should come by if you can after.
10:07I promise I'll make it worth your while.
10:09Thanks, baby.
10:17You only get that look on your face when it's something serious.
10:21Samantha, please, just...
10:22I need a minute.
10:36It's not a big deal.
10:37It's not like Chelsea and I haven't gotten on each other's nerves before.
10:41You've had tiffs, but none that bothered you to the point of wanting to move out.
10:46Mom, please just trust me.
10:48Let us handle this ourselves.
10:49We're big girls.
10:51Okay.
10:53But if you need an ear...
10:54I know.
10:55And likewise.
10:56Good.
10:57Because there is something that I actually need to talk to you about.
11:01What's on your mind?
11:04You.
11:05Come on, Mom.
11:06And this vendetta that you have with Leslie and Eva.
11:10Oh, my gosh.
11:11I literally can't win.
11:13It's always me who's wrong.
11:15But I'm actually not wrong.
11:18That woman has gotten away with every bad deed, every conniving plan, every crime she's committed
11:24since she came into town.
11:25And everyone's just moving on like it's no big deal.
11:28That is not what we are doing, honey.
11:32So does right and wrong not matter anymore?
11:36Does Laura not matter?
11:38Of course.
11:40But you have to learn to pick your battles for your own peace of mind.
11:43And I know that is difficult to do.
11:47That woman is downright infuriating.
11:50But you are allowing her to consume you.
11:54You are not going to like hearing this.
11:57But you are behaving exactly like her.
12:01I have never even considered half the things Leslie Thomas has actually done.
12:07Like you, she has let anger overwhelm her.
12:11That and envy have been the driving force of every decision that she has made.
12:17Her wanting revenge has poisoned her.
12:20I don't want that to happen to you.
12:23So what do you want me to do?
12:25Pretend like I don't picture her in a prison cell every day?
12:29Outsmart her.
12:30She has become the expert at trolling our family.
12:33But she can only do that if we allow her to push our buttons.
12:37So take away her power.
12:39Pretend she doesn't even exist at all.
12:41Huh.
12:42Easier said than done.
12:44Focus on the good in your life.
12:45Your budding relationship.
12:47Your family.
12:48Your growing business.
12:49Well, the majority of that centers on Chelsea.
12:51And we're not in the best place right now.
12:53So, guess it's back to hating Leslie.
12:57Ahem.
13:00Well, yes, ma'am.
13:02You like it?
13:03Yeah.
13:03Okay, good.
13:04I am texting Ashley that we're on our way.
13:07Is Kat meeting us there?
13:09Um, that'll be a no.
13:11She's still ducking my calls.
13:13You guys are still fighting?
13:15I saw her the other day and I assumed you guys made up.
13:18Well, we've never had a fight last this long.
13:21I don't know what her issue is.
13:23Well, the feeling I got was that Kat's not interested in being a forever third wheel to you and Madison.
13:28Oh, when has Kat ever been a third wheel to anyone I've ever dated?
13:33When have you ever been engaged?
13:37Granddad said the same thing.
13:39It's just frustrating because I'm not trying to push Kat away.
13:43And it bugs me that she's just bailing without really talking to me about it.
13:47I mean, the way you suddenly proposed and plan to move to the other side of the world?
13:52Not moving anymore.
13:53I'm just saying.
13:55Maybe Kat is feeling discarded.
13:58Well, same.
13:59Kat's my best friend and she's not even happy for me.
14:03Okay.
14:05Change of plans.
14:06I'm disinviting you to Uptown.
14:07What?
14:08Go.
14:08Go fix this.
14:10Because the both of you clearly have things to say to each other.
14:16Hey, you made it.
14:18Did you get that work thing resolved you texted me about?
14:22Not exactly.
14:23Um, I screwed up big time today.
14:26You want to talk about it?
14:28I don't know much about working in a lab, but I am a really good listener.
14:37I know.
14:39Professionals like us, we want to do it all ourselves.
14:41But you know, Shanice has taught me recently the importance of relying on my team.
14:46So if it's not me, maybe you can talk to a lab tech or your supervisor?
14:51Yeah, it's not that simple.
14:53There's only one person who could help me right now and involving them could make this a thousand times worse.
15:01You were saying something about this last paragraph?
15:04Um, yeah, sorry.
15:06Uh, last paragraph.
15:08So, do you see the way that you looped around to your opening statement?
15:12It's really good.
15:13So you can take it further if you...
15:19Are you okay?
15:20I'm fine for now.
15:22I don't think anyone else clocked me.
15:24But we need to talk ASAP.
15:26Can you get away?
15:27Yeah.
15:28Same place?
15:29Yeah.
15:30Come now.
15:34Samantha, I have to go.
15:41Wow.
15:42You are really beating yourself up.
15:45Okay.
15:47Mistakes happen.
15:48You're only human.
15:50What you got to do is learn from them and do better next time.
15:53A smarter person wouldn't have let this happen in the first place.
15:56Not like this.
15:57Okay.
15:58You know, when I first started at Garland,
16:01I accidentally notated the wrong medication on a patient's file.
16:05And a doctor caught it and was pretty firm when he corrected me.
16:09I was humiliated.
16:10I mean, I beat myself up for the rest of my shift.
16:13But do you know what it made me realize?
16:15What's that?
16:16It was a lesson I needed to learn.
16:19I mean, thankfully, I didn't actually administer the wrong med
16:22because that would be a whole different conversation.
16:24But that incident, it taught me that I needed to slow down.
16:29Which is my advice to you right now.
16:31You are overextending yourself.
16:33And when you do that, slip-ups happen.
16:39The signs have been there all along.
16:41I've just been so focused on keeping my head down and pushing through.
16:44I ignored them all.
16:47I couldn't stop.
16:48I just had to keep going.
16:49Yeah, I hear you.
16:52Burnout comes for us all.
16:54You know, I just admitted to Shanice that I have become jaded.
16:58You are a good man, Grayson Perez.
17:01You are.
17:01I wouldn't be here if you weren't.
17:03Oh, and the way you're taking care of your mother.
17:06That shows integrity.
17:09If only I had known you before, I wouldn't be so far gone.
17:12Well, it's never too late.
17:16You don't have to carry this all alone anymore.
17:20So, whether you need help finding financial resources
17:22or you just want to vent at a bar.
17:25I'm here for you.
17:29Your pop will be back any minute.
17:31Just tell him I had to run and I'll be back soon.
17:34I'll go work on my projects.
17:41You leaving?
17:42Tyrell called for a ride from Chess Club?
17:44It's work.
17:45I have to go meet with my source.
17:46Now?
17:47I just got back.
17:48We had a whole plan.
17:49Yeah, and we'll continue when I get back.
17:52I just, right now, I have to go.
17:53All right?
17:53My whole story might be compromised.
17:55Look, I'm sorry to hear about that,
17:58but I know how important this is
18:00and how much you've been working on it.
18:01Thanks, babe.
18:02But right now, I'm more concerned about my source
18:04than my byline.
18:05What do you mean?
18:06Do you suspect they're in some danger?
18:09Did you want me to go with you?
18:10No.
18:11Bringing my famous husband would draw unwanted attention.
18:14Don't worry.
18:15I will be safe and I'll be right back.
18:18Smitty, I...
18:19And have Samantha show you her psych paper.
18:22You'll be impressed.
18:26Okay.
18:26I was going to give you space,
18:28but it seems like we need to talk this one out.
18:31Are you and Chelsea spending too much time together?
18:34Working together, living together,
18:36having the same friends?
18:37No.
18:38We've always been really good
18:39at going to our corners when we need to.
18:42I mean, we got into it
18:44when I made the decision
18:45not to test for the Broca gene, but...
18:47I thought you got past that part.
18:49Yeah.
18:50But then, all of a sudden,
18:52Chelsea was engaged.
18:53Out of nowhere.
18:55And I don't know why I'm the only one
18:57who's noticed this,
18:58but three's a crowd.
19:00Did Chelsea ask you to leave?
19:03No.
19:04I made the decision.
19:06Have you ever seen three grown women share a space?
19:09I was doing us all a favor.
19:11And Chelsea had the nerve to be offended
19:13when just a few weeks ago,
19:14she was preparing to move to frickin' Denmark
19:17without so much as a word to me.
19:20You two have a direct impact on each other's lives.
19:24And that wasn't very considerate of her.
19:26It wasn't.
19:27At all.
19:29I remember when Danny declared
19:32that she was moving off to New York
19:34to become a model.
19:35I was already away at school,
19:37but man, it hit us like a ton of bricks.
19:40And Gran recruited you
19:41to talk some sense into her?
19:43Maybe not the best decision on Mother's part.
19:45I was so upset with Danny
19:47for just being selfish,
19:50stressing Mother and Daddy out like that.
19:51How could she just toss us away?
19:54But you know what Danny did?
19:56She went from New York to Paris to Milan
20:01and became everything that she knew she was.
20:05My frustration with her decision
20:07wasn't about her at all.
20:09It was about me.
20:11What do you mean?
20:13At the time, I was going through a breakup
20:15with the first man I ever loved, Anthony.
20:17What?
20:17I never heard this part of the story.
20:19Ugh, because it was so damn awful.
20:22All I wanted was to come home for the summer
20:24and have everything be exactly the way it was
20:27when I left.
20:28I wanted comfort and family,
20:31no big changes.
20:32And my sister?
20:34All she said was,
20:36oh well, I'm out of here.
20:38Aunt Danny has always been one to follow her heart.
20:40A trait she directly passed to her daughter.
20:44Danny's decision wasn't a personal attack on me.
20:48It didn't mean that mother, daddy, and me
20:50were any less important.
20:52It just, it was something that she needed to do
20:55for her future.
20:57I hear you, Mom.
20:59I will talk to Chelsea.
21:02That's my girl.
21:08Bill, you looking for a game at Texas Hold'em?
21:10It'll take me a minute to round up some high rollers,
21:13but I can make it happen.
21:14Nah, a crowd is the exact opposite of what I need.
21:18Can we talk?
21:20Privately?
21:27What's on your mind?
21:30Your employee and my wife.
21:33Is there something about Sammy and Haley I should know?
21:39You know, Haley's been so shaken up since the mugging.
21:43You know, she's paranoid, worried, nervous all the time.
21:47She's all over the place.
21:49Well, she has been through a traumatic experience.
21:51Yeah, well, it doesn't help that your guys
21:53can't seem to find this scumbag.
21:55You know, I don't understand
21:58how this guy can rob Haley
22:00and then do the exact same thing to another woman
22:02in broad daylight,
22:03and all of a sudden, he's nowhere to be found.
22:07What does this have to do with Sammy?
22:10I thought he would have told you.
22:12You know, Haley tried to hire him
22:14as her personal bodyguard last night.
22:17Hmm.
22:19It's news to me.
22:21Listen, if I had known that was her plan,
22:23I would have come to you
22:24before she tried to poach one of yours.
22:25I appreciate the courtesy, Bill, really.
22:29Besides, I, uh, I get it.
22:32I understand why Haley would want to
22:35hire someone that she likes
22:37and already trusts.
22:39Hmm.
22:40Yeah.
22:41Yeah, they do seem to have developed a bond.
22:47But I hope there are no hard feelings.
22:49No blood lost?
22:52Actually, I admire Haley's chutzpah
22:55for going after what she wants.
22:59Sorry I am late.
23:01Had stopped by the office
23:01just as I was about to leave.
23:03She should have joined us.
23:05I have a couple more properties to show her.
23:07Oh, don't even.
23:08You know you only invited me over
23:10to dish about my date with Kyle.
23:13Guilty as charged.
23:14So?
23:17I have become the woman
23:18who kisses and tells,
23:20and I love it.
23:22Oh, he is just so...
23:25Sexy?
23:26Bigger.
23:28It's like the man invented the meaning.
23:31He touches my body,
23:32and every cell lights up.
23:34Now that is hot.
23:37I did get a surprising phone call
23:40while I was with him, though.
23:42Carlton.
23:43Don't tell me you answered.
23:45God, no.
23:46Besides, my hands were a little occupied.
23:49Mm.
23:51But he did leave the sweetest
23:53and most thoughtful message.
23:56I can't wait to see him again
23:57and tell him thank you in person.
24:00Carlton or Kyle?
24:02Carlton.
24:04Samantha was right next to me
24:05when I got your text.
24:06I was freaking out
24:07when you went radio silent.
24:08I had to do another drop.
24:10I'm surprised you went back
24:11after being recognized.
24:13Yeah, it was risky,
24:13but I'm in it now.
24:14Flaking would have been worse.
24:16Oh, your gut hasn't steered you wrong yet.
24:19Do you think the guy
24:20from the hospital is going to out you?
24:21But see, that's the thing.
24:22We were both shocked to see each other,
24:24but Grayson looks straight up terrified.
24:26Okay, well, if he's a low-level guy
24:28in the operation
24:29just looking to make some extra cash,
24:31maybe he doesn't want any trouble either.
24:33Well, no one's saying anything
24:34when I made the drop,
24:34so I'm assuming he's keeping his mouth shut.
24:36Okay, and this guy Grayson,
24:40have you arrested him before?
24:41Maybe I can link some petty crimes
24:43to the overall ring.
24:44Nah, I don't know about that.
24:46Okay, what's his last name?
24:48I'll do a dive.
24:49Perez.
24:50And how do you know him?
24:52He's dating Ashley,
24:54Naomi's best friend.
24:56Look, I know how hard it is
24:57to get over a bad day at work,
24:59so I'm not going to keep pushing,
25:00but I will leave you with this.
25:02Nothing lasts forever.
25:05And I am pretty sure
25:07you might get over all of this by morning.
25:09Yeah, more like I'll be over in the morning.
25:11Grayson, they're not going to fire you
25:14over one mix-up at the lab.
25:15Garland knows your worth.
25:16Grayson, have you ever made
25:20the wrong decision
25:21that comes back to haunt you?
25:22Over and over.
25:25You know, letting people in,
25:29not carrying your stress all alone,
25:32it helps.
25:34Can we go back to your place?
25:36Fucking private.
25:38Well, Naomi's coming,
25:40but you know, we don't have to stay long.
25:42We'll just have one drink with them,
25:44and then we can go.
25:44Ben, is she bringing her husband?
25:47Uh, no, actually,
25:48Jacob's been really busy lately.
25:50Naomi says that he's working
25:52on something special.
26:07I got your text.
26:09Yeah, I, uh, I sent you one.
26:16That's usually how text messaging works.
26:18I hate when we fight.
26:20Me too.
26:20I'm sorry, Kat.
26:21No, I'm sorry.
26:23I shouldn't have been avoiding you.
26:25I really am happy for you and Madison.
26:27You know that, right?
26:28Well, how could I?
26:29You've been MIA since the engagement,
26:32and I never meant to make it seem like
26:35the whole world had to revolve
26:36around my love life.
26:37This is colossal.
26:38You should expect the people in your life
26:40to be happy for you,
26:41and I am.
26:42I was just caught off guard.
26:44I should have told you how I was feeling.
26:46It just all happened so fast.
26:48I never intended to leave you out.
26:49Yes, I didn't realize how much of a constant
26:52you'd become in my life.
26:53With all the changes of this past year,
26:56my parents split,
26:57that woman and her child,
27:00grand sickness,
27:02I relied on you to be my Chelsea
27:05and for us to have our own thing forever.
27:07And we'll still be us,
27:09just with Madison and Tomas by our sides.
27:13It did kind of feel like you resented
27:15the fact that I'm getting married.
27:17Of course I don't.
27:18I adore Madison.
27:21The way that she stood by you
27:23these past few months,
27:25all that love and support,
27:26it's all I could have asked for.
27:28Thanks, Kat.
27:30You should have the space
27:32to be able to become
27:34the woman that you're becoming.
27:37I'm sorry if I made you feel like you did it.
27:40And so should you.
27:41And whatever step you and Tomas decide to take,
27:44I want you to take it
27:45knowing that I'm always here for you.
27:48I'm so glad we're finally talking.
27:50I missed you.
27:51I missed you more.
27:52Oh, my God.
27:52I'm going to read that seat again.
27:53As if we could stop being us.
27:56And I'm so glad that everything's worked out.
27:58You're not moving out anymore.
28:00Oh, um, Chelsea,
28:03I'm still moving out.
28:05That hasn't changed.
28:08Now, my question is,
28:10how does Joey feel about the prospect
28:12of this double date?
28:14Couldn't be more excited.
28:16Joey Armstrong
28:17couldn't be more excited
28:19about being in an enclosed,
28:20intimate space
28:21with a couple he doesn't know.
28:23What's so hard to believe about that?
28:25He's great company.
28:27Joey can make conversation
28:28with everyone
28:28from the chairman of the board
28:30to the valet attendant.
28:32The only time he's ever been nervous
28:34around people
28:35is with Donnell and Deanna.
28:37Isn't that sweet?
28:39He and Donnell did get along well.
28:41And it'll be even better with Deanna.
28:45But there is no rush
28:46for them to be introduced, right?
28:49She's still going through so much.
28:51She may be coming home
28:52for the dedication ceremony,
28:54so I was thinking
28:55of planning a nice dinner.
28:58Joey hasn't come around yet,
29:00but he will.
29:00I'm not worried.
29:03Maybe you should be.
29:05I'm sorry?
29:07Sweetie,
29:08you don't see
29:09what's staring you in the face.
29:12Why do you keep doing this?
29:16I'm sorry, Bill.
29:18Sammy is one of my best men,
29:20so I can't spare him
29:21for the message.
29:22But
29:24I do have other
29:25skilled employees
29:27who can help out
29:28if you're interested.
29:29No, that won't be necessary.
29:30We plan on getting out of town
29:31for a bit anyway,
29:32and if we don't,
29:33I can hire my own security.
29:35Ouch.
29:36Bill.
29:37You know I wouldn't
29:38send anyone to you
29:39without them being
29:40improperly vetted.
29:42It's not that I don't
29:43trust your instincts, Joey.
29:45It's just that
29:45we've always been mindful
29:46about keeping a certain
29:47level of distance between us.
29:49I understand.
29:50Mrs. Bill Hamilton
29:51flanked by known
29:52associates of mine
29:53doesn't exactly make
29:55for the best optics.
29:56Right, right.
29:57It'd make our connection
29:58just a little too plain for me,
30:00but I appreciate the offer.
30:02Well, if it helps,
30:05I've had my guys
30:06scour the entire DMV.
30:09There's no sign
30:10of the bastard.
30:11So I think it's unlikely
30:13that Haley's
30:14in any real danger.
30:15Mm-hmm.
30:16Oh.
30:17So you're saying
30:18the guy skipped town.
30:20How can you be so sure?
30:22Call it a hunch.
30:24This is getting
30:26way too close to home.
30:27What are you gonna do?
30:29Well, I'm gonna talk
30:31to Grayson directly
30:32and earn his trust,
30:33and then I'm gonna recruit him.
30:37That is ambitious.
30:40Okay, um,
30:43if you're gonna get him
30:44to trust you,
30:45then you need to offer
30:45some type of protection
30:46should things go sideways.
30:48That's true.
30:49And in order for me
30:50to trust him,
30:51he's gotta convince me
30:52that he's keeping
30:53Naomi and Ashley
30:54out of this.
30:55Okay, ma'am.
30:57Looking good, hot stuff.
30:59Stop it.
30:59Where's Chelsea?
31:00She is visiting Kat,
31:02so it's just us tonight.
31:04Hi, Grayson.
31:05Hey.
31:05Uh, you know,
31:07I'm gonna get going.
31:08I'm not feeling any better.
31:09No, hey.
31:10I didn't even get
31:10to cheer you up yet.
31:12And look, Naomi knows
31:13I don't even get into
31:13my best stuff
31:14until drink number two.
31:15Mm-hmm.
31:17Grayson's had a hard day
31:19at work today,
31:19so you know how it is.
31:22Oh, I'm sorry.
31:23Yeah, I've been there.
31:25How do you handle it?
31:27Uh, well,
31:28usually I ruminate over it,
31:30replay every moment
31:32I spent in court,
31:32review every single document,
31:34and don't stop
31:34until I see
31:35where the cracks are.
31:36Now, see,
31:36that's intense.
31:38Exactly.
31:38Don't be like me, Grayson.
31:41Stay.
31:41Blowing on the past
31:42does nothing for the present.
31:44And besides,
31:44I was really looking forward
31:45to catching up.
31:46Too bad Jacob
31:47can't join us.
31:48Yeah, but he's
31:49with us in spirit.
31:50Oh, look at
31:52what he sent me.
31:54Ooh, how gorgeous.
31:57Oh, I know that
31:58you don't know Jacob
31:59while Grayson,
32:00but he has the best husband.
32:02He's the best detective.
32:03He's pretty much
32:03the best at everything.
32:04Oh, wow.
32:05His head would explode
32:06hearing that.
32:08Why isn't he
32:09joining us tonight?
32:10Oh, he's training
32:11out of town,
32:12but he will be back soon,
32:14and then the four of us
32:15can get together.
32:20I am not judging.
32:22I am just making
32:24an observation.
32:25And what have you noticed?
32:28Well, on one hand,
32:30you say you're drawn
32:31to Joey's dangerous charm,
32:33that he's thrilling
32:34and exciting,
32:35and that speaks
32:36to a part of you.
32:37And the other part?
32:38You keep trying
32:39to make him more...
32:41respectable?
32:43You insist
32:44that he comes with you
32:46to social events
32:47at the club.
32:48We're together.
32:49Who else would I invite?
32:50You're trying to
32:51clean up his image
32:52with this clinic.
32:54You're judging a man
32:55who wants to help
32:56provide free health care
32:57to the community?
32:58Like I said,
32:58I am not.
33:00It's just easier
33:01to notice patterns
33:02when you're not sitting
33:03in the center of it.
33:05And now,
33:06you want him
33:07to go on double dates
33:08with your closest friend
33:09and have intimate dinners
33:11with your kids.
33:12I don't hear a problem.
33:15Vanessa,
33:16who are you trying
33:17to turn him into?
33:20I thought we were
33:21on the same page
33:22about this.
33:22I can hold space
33:23for you and for Madison.
33:24And I appreciate that,
33:26but this move
33:27isn't about you.
33:30Okay,
33:30it was at the beginning.
33:32I was being hasty
33:33and trying to leave
33:34before you inevitably
33:35kicked me out
33:36or left first
33:37to move in with Madison.
33:39But I told you...
33:40I know,
33:41but it's not about
33:42that anymore.
33:43I talked to Tomas
33:44and he highlighted
33:45some things for me.
33:47Living on my own
33:48is a necessary step
33:49in adulthood.
33:50You had your own place
33:52in the city
33:52before you moved
33:53into your mom's guest house.
33:55I went straight
33:56from my parents' house
33:57to Aunt Danny's.
33:59It is nice to have
34:00your own place
34:00to do what you want.
34:01Have parties,
34:02play loud music...
34:04Or walk around
34:04in my birthday suit
34:05if I want.
34:06Girl, I do that now.
34:07Yeah, I know.
34:09But I get it.
34:10I'm just gonna have
34:11to start missing
34:12you all over again.
34:13Well, I'll still be
34:14at the studio all the time.
34:15We do share a business,
34:17remember?
34:17And you'll have to help me
34:18plan the wedding
34:19of the decade.
34:20I am at your service,
34:22ready to source
34:23a perfect gown
34:24or keep unruly
34:25bridesmaids in check.
34:26You mean it.
34:28Of course I do.
34:30We are planning
34:31a wedding!
34:35Grandma helped me
34:36to understand
34:37how all these
34:37different parts
34:38of the brain
34:39interact to help
34:39process trauma
34:40and regulate emotion.
34:42How so?
34:43Well, the amygdala,
34:45for example,
34:46triggers our
34:46fight-or-flight response.
34:48It helps us learn
34:49and remember
34:50what we deemed
34:51dangerous and unsafe.
34:52That is so amazing,
34:54Samantha.
34:55I have no doubt
34:56you're gonna ace
34:57that project.
34:58Yeah, it's been
34:59kind of interesting.
35:00Our family's dealt
35:01with so much,
35:02I just wanted to,
35:03you know,
35:03try to understand it better.
35:05Not that I'd ever
35:06bring up personal
35:07matters in public.
35:08That never crossed
35:09my mind.
35:10I'm so proud of you.
35:11And Dad is, too.
35:13Oh.
35:15That's Dad now.
35:16I spoke him up.
35:17He's on his way home.
35:18How about we cut him
35:19a piece?
35:21Oh.
35:22Chelsea and Kat
35:23are gonna stop by
35:24after all.
35:24Oh.
35:26Chelsea's engaged
35:27to Dr. Montgomery,
35:27who's leading
35:28the Parkinson's project
35:29I was telling you about.
35:30That's right.
35:30I remember you telling me
35:32my mother's suffering
35:33from Parkinson's.
35:36Oh, I'm
35:38really sorry
35:38to hear that, Grayson.
35:40You know,
35:41hopefully the work
35:41Madison's doing
35:42will bring you
35:43and others like your mom
35:45some relief.
35:46I appreciate that.
35:48Yeah, I saw your
35:48grandmother's interview
35:49online.
35:50Sorry to hear about
35:51her diagnosis.
35:52Yeah.
35:53Her courage
35:54is inspiring.
35:55Yeah.
35:55To us all.
36:01You know,
36:02I should take this.
36:02It might be the hospital.
36:06Who's this?
36:07Grayson.
36:08It's Jacob.
36:09We need to talk.
36:11And don't say
36:11a single word
36:12about what you saw
36:13until we do.
36:15No.
36:26You know,
36:43you know,
36:43you
