00:00:22Wow, big yawn for a big night.
00:00:24Sorry, long day.
00:00:27In here, I thought it was charming.
00:00:28You are.
00:00:30You just make me feel comfortable.
00:00:39I had a really great time tonight.
00:00:43Me too.
00:00:45You know, you're pretty amazing.
00:00:50I think you're pretty amazing too.
00:01:03Sidney.
00:01:05Romance is hard for everyone.
00:01:07Are you okay?
00:01:07But when you have a condition that makes you pass out from strong emotions, dating becomes
00:01:11a minefield.
00:01:13Laugh too hard?
00:01:14Out cold.
00:01:15Get startled?
00:01:16Faceplant.
00:01:16Butterflies on the first date?
00:01:17I'll get help.
00:01:18Game over.
00:01:19For three million people on this planet, narcolepsy is a daily struggle.
00:01:23I'm one of the lucky few.
00:01:26My epic journey began long ago in the dark halls of junior high.
00:01:31I was just going about my life, and then suddenly...
00:01:38Instant ragdoll.
00:01:42You good?
00:01:44My mom passed away when I was little.
00:01:47I don't really remember her, but dad always made sure I never felt alone.
00:01:52He has this way of making even the hardest things feel a little lighter.
00:01:55Sleeping beauty.
00:01:58Afternoon nap is over, sleeping beauty.
00:02:00Hey, Prince no-showed.
00:02:03Yeah.
00:02:04I'm going to file an official complaint.
00:02:06Don't you worry.
00:02:06Tests, pills, therapists, nothing really worked.
00:02:12School got harder, and so did life.
00:02:20Catch it, Sydney!
00:02:22Catch it!
00:02:25Not again!
00:02:27Come on!
00:02:33Please think we're going to lunch.
00:02:35Want to come?
00:02:35I'm good here, thanks.
00:02:37Okay, okay.
00:02:46And sleeping at night?
00:02:47Forget about it.
00:02:49Especially when the hallucinations started.
00:03:16But let's not dwell on that.
00:03:18These days, I've got things under control.
00:03:21The secret?
00:03:22I stay calm, cool, and collected.
00:04:06Are you guys thirsty?
00:04:09Are you great?
00:04:11I stay home.
00:04:28Let's fly to the next episode.
00:04:32Right?
00:04:35How about now?
00:05:08No, 100%. I don't like it at all. These people moving in here are turning this neighborhood into the ghetto.
00:05:15I know. All this gangster music they're listening to and I actually hate. Now, my neighborhood is not meant to
00:05:29be apparent.
00:05:47Mary, I see how much you give to your kids and others. I know it must be hard, but you
00:05:50really are doing a great job. Hope these flowers brighten your day.
00:06:45Hey, Dad.
00:06:47Hey. I'm thinking about stopping by.
00:06:50Are you sure you're up for the journey?
00:06:52Oh, yeah. I've packed provisions. I should be good.
00:06:55Cool. Text me if you get lost.
00:06:57I will do.
00:07:15I got ice cream. Imported from the corner store. Has it really been a year?
00:07:21Almost.
00:07:23That's incredible. We are celebrating.
00:07:25Sure. Just get me a cake that says, congrats on being the most boring person alive.
00:07:31No, no. That is too wordy. We are putting in big block letters. Boring. Simpler. Bolder. Sadder.
00:07:38Hmm. Good call.
00:07:40Hey, I need your help. There's a guy at Pickleball. Luke Johnson. He has always coached me. Rise, he stands
00:07:46into the net. I can't go alone anymore. I need you. Tuesdays and Thursdays. One hour max. Sometimes two. Usually
00:07:52three.
00:07:55Tempting. We both know that's not going to happen. Because that would require...
00:08:01Leaving the house?
00:08:02Ah, right. Yeah. Bad idea. The worst.
00:08:07Hmm.
00:08:09You know, I have it good here. But sometimes I do want...
00:08:14What? Drama? Romance? Adventure.
00:08:19Romance? Hard pass. Drama? Definitely not. Adventure? Maybe.
00:08:26Right. Listen, I understand that living next to your dad is thrilling.
00:08:32Well, yeah. It's awesome. Obviously. Front row seat to your dad jokes. Literal dream life.
00:08:38Yeah. Oh, yeah. But I see you, Sid. You're lonely.
00:08:43Stop. I have you. I have my plans. We're thriving.
00:08:49Yeah. You can't fool me. You like people. You've always liked people.
00:08:55Liking people isn't the problem. It's what comes after.
00:08:59After what?
00:09:00After I try. I always end up looking like an idiot or scaring people or getting laughed at.
00:09:11It... It's fine. It's always fine. I just gotta keep things calm, cool and collected. It's what works best.
00:09:24Yeah.
00:09:27Yeah.
00:09:30Yeah.
00:09:58You're not real.
00:10:00Mm-hmm.
00:10:11Oh, my God.
00:10:31Oh, my God.
00:11:03Oh, my God.
00:11:37Oh, my God.
00:11:55Oh, my God.
00:11:56Oh, my God.
00:11:59Oh, my God.
00:12:00Oh, my God.
00:12:01It won't happen again.
00:12:04Good morning, Carl.
00:12:06Oh, hi.
00:12:08I was just admiring the flowers.
00:12:12I found the car on the sidewalk.
00:12:14It must have been the wind or something.
00:12:16I think crazy weather patterns we've been having.
00:12:19You know.
00:12:21Who is it from?
00:12:24It doesn't say.
00:12:26Oh, well, I'll keep an eye out for you,
00:12:30and we'll figure out who this was.
00:12:32You don't have to do that.
00:12:34Oh, it's not a problem at all.
00:12:35Us neighbors got to look out for each other, right?
00:12:37Bye, Carl.
00:12:39My holy beach.
00:12:40Vente, mijito.
00:13:18Oh, no.
00:13:21Oh, no.
00:13:40You're new here?
00:13:42I am new here.
00:13:43I just moved in right there.
00:13:45Want to play?
00:13:45I would love to.
00:13:47Do you have room for me?
00:13:48Yeah.
00:13:48Oh, very good.
00:13:50Very good.
00:13:50What's your name?
00:13:52Ruby.
00:13:52Ruby.
00:13:54Are you shooting one hand?
00:13:56Are you kidding me?
00:13:57Yeah.
00:13:58I got to go.
00:13:59Yeah?
00:14:00Does it hurt?
00:14:00You all right?
00:14:01Okay, I got to go.
00:14:02I got to finish saying hi to my new neighbor.
00:14:04But I'm sure I'll see you around.
00:14:18Hello there.
00:14:19Hi.
00:14:20Do you live here?
00:14:21I just moved in next door.
00:14:22Oh, no.
00:14:24The woman who lives here keeps to herself.
00:14:26The only person I've ever seen her talk to is her dad.
00:14:29He lives next door.
00:14:32I've only got glances.
00:14:34Like blink and then she's gone.
00:14:36Total shut in.
00:14:38Only opens the door to grab groceries and then poof.
00:14:41Gone again.
00:14:44Okay.
00:14:45Well, since you're here.
00:14:48Oh, for me?
00:14:51They're macaroons.
00:14:52Just for the neighborhood.
00:14:53You know, I figured I'd make the rounds.
00:14:55Love that.
00:14:56I'm Carl.
00:14:57Taylor.
00:14:58That's my house just over there.
00:14:59The one with the flower bed.
00:15:01Desperately trying to outshine Tom's lawn.
00:15:04That's his house over there.
00:15:06He mows it daily.
00:15:07Like actually, daily.
00:15:09And then there's Mary.
00:15:11Her husband currently serving overseas.
00:15:14Fighting on a distant foreign battlefield.
00:15:18Mary and her son spend every day wondering if they'll ever see him again.
00:15:25It sounds like he's in the military.
00:15:28Yeah, he's in the military.
00:15:30Yeah.
00:15:31Well, Carl, I look forward to meeting everybody.
00:15:35Hey, if you ever need anything, don't hesitate to ask.
00:15:38Okay.
00:15:39Thanks, Carl.
00:15:39I'll definitely keep that in mind.
00:15:40I'll see you again.
00:15:54I'll see you again.
00:16:27You're being ridiculous.
00:16:29Numbers.
00:16:30Focus on numbers.
00:16:33Sit!
00:16:34Hey, sorry about the surprise visit.
00:16:37Hi.
00:16:39Whoa.
00:16:39Are you okay?
00:16:40Did I scare you?
00:16:41I'm fine.
00:16:43Everything's fine.
00:16:44Okay.
00:16:46There's been a lot of excitement today.
00:16:49Do you want some tea?
00:16:52Yes.
00:16:53I'd love some tea.
00:16:57Uh-oh.
00:17:02Sorry, Sleepy Beauty.
00:17:04You don't have to call me that anymore.
00:17:06I'm fully grown.
00:17:07Oh, you are right.
00:17:09You've evolved.
00:17:11Snooze Queen it is.
00:17:13Dad?
00:17:14Hey, that is a royal upgrade.
00:17:16Don't make me laugh.
00:17:17I've already gone down once today.
00:17:19Okay, sorry.
00:17:20Sorry.
00:17:22I'm just bummed about that cake.
00:17:25Me too.
00:17:26Me too.
00:17:26Turns out hiding inside doesn't make you invincible.
00:17:35You remember that thing you said yesterday about me being lonely?
00:17:40Yeah, listen.
00:17:41You weren't wrong.
00:17:46I've got you, but I feel stuck.
00:17:53So I was thinking maybe I give therapy another go?
00:17:59Finally shut the door on this stay-inside-forever-world-is-terrifying mindset?
00:18:04Yes.
00:18:05Sid, this is great.
00:18:06Look, sometimes you've got to close one door so you can finally open the one marked adventure.
00:18:11Wow.
00:18:12That was almost profound.
00:18:15Yeah, I know.
00:18:15I should have put a pun in there.
00:18:21You sure about this?
00:18:22Yes.
00:18:23Worst case, it's a bust.
00:18:25And I go back to hermit life and no one dies.
00:18:29I love it.
00:18:30You know, actually, I heard about this therapist recently that's supposed to be...
00:18:33Perfect.
00:18:34I'll book it.
00:18:36You don't want to hear anything about the therapist?
00:18:38No.
00:18:39Because if I think about it for more than five seconds, I'll talk myself out of it.
00:18:43Okay.
00:18:44All right.
00:18:44That's my girl.
00:18:46Yeah.
00:18:47True therapy.
00:18:48May it knock some sense into you.
00:18:55It's just talking.
00:18:56Just one hour of talking.
00:18:59Totally fine.
00:19:07Totally fine.
00:20:01Sydney, are you ready?
00:20:03Uh-huh.
00:20:05It's very normal to be nervous in a first session.
00:20:09Right.
00:20:11Sorry, I've done therapy before, but it's been a while.
00:20:14Well, my dad recommended you, so here I am.
00:20:18Oh, I'm not Dr. Taylor Bennett.
00:20:23You're not?
00:20:24Nope. I'm Judy, his assistant.
00:20:27Oh.
00:20:28Dr. Bennett is just through here.
00:20:40Sydney.
00:20:45Oh, hey. Hey, you okay?
00:20:53I can't believe that just happened.
00:20:55Are you able to sit up for me?
00:20:58Uh-huh.
00:21:02Sorry, I wasn't expecting you.
00:21:08Yeah.
00:21:10Yeah, I get that reaction a lot.
00:21:12But I promise you, I've got a full degree, careful, and a lot of years of experience in helping people
00:21:18not faint.
00:21:19Let's get you down right there.
00:21:21Okay.
00:21:24I guess I thought Dr. Bennett was, well, a woman, because of your first name, Taylor.
00:21:32What about Taylor Lautner?
00:21:35Not nearly as famous as his ex, Taylor Swift.
00:21:40That's fair.
00:21:40I walked into that.
00:21:41I'll throw in Taylor Hawkins.
00:21:43Foo Fighters, respect.
00:21:45I'll counter with Taylor Dane.
00:21:47Oh, an 80s fan, huh?
00:21:49I dabble in all the decades.
00:21:52To be fair, you're not the only one with a name that swings both ways.
00:21:56That's true.
00:21:57Sydney Poitier.
00:22:00Exactly.
00:22:01Lilies of the Field.
00:22:03Brilliant.
00:22:07Um, sorry again for the dramatic entrance.
00:22:12Don't, don't give it another thought.
00:22:14Now, the important thing is that you're all right.
00:22:15Do you need any water or anything, by the way?
00:22:18I'm fine.
00:22:20Okay.
00:22:22All right.
00:22:22Well, we'll take it as slow as you need to.
00:22:25Okay?
00:22:26And I've worked with narcoleptic patients before.
00:22:29Although, to be honest, this is the first time I've seen a cataplexy episode on the first meeting.
00:22:33But I'd love to help.
00:22:35And I think that we can work through this.
00:22:40I would like that.
00:22:42Okay.
00:22:45And truly, there is no rush.
00:22:48Go as slow as you need.
00:22:49You just let me know when you're ready to begin.
00:22:55Okay.
00:23:05Well, at least you're consistent.
00:23:43Are you sure you don't need anything, Mom?
00:23:45Taylor, I'm the one with the stocked fridge.
00:23:48The question is, do you need anything?
00:23:51Besides someone to properly alphabetize your books.
00:23:54Just knowing that you're healthy and happy is enough.
00:23:57You still didn't have to move all the way here just to keep an eye on me.
00:24:01I know.
00:24:03I wanted to.
00:24:04Come here.
00:24:09Could I actually get your opinion on something?
00:24:11Always.
00:24:13I have a new client.
00:24:15It's a young woman.
00:24:16Type 1 narcolepsy.
00:24:19Cataplexy, hallucinations, sleep paralysis.
00:24:21She had five episodes during the intake.
00:24:24Yikes.
00:24:25Any updated studies?
00:24:26No.
00:24:27Nothing recent.
00:24:28Most of her diagnostics were done when she was a kid.
00:24:31One doctor tried to put her on CPAP.
00:24:33Only made it worse.
00:24:34Of course it did.
00:24:36Sounds like she needs a full reset.
00:24:38Well, see, that's what I'm trying to figure out.
00:24:40Because I don't want to make it worse, you know?
00:24:43I mean, she's someone I want to...
00:24:46She's someone I want to get it right for.
00:24:49Then start simple.
00:24:51Patterns, triggers, control where you can.
00:24:54If her body's on edge, don't throw more chaos at it.
00:24:56If she's been carrying around this diagnosis from childhood, she's not just tired.
00:25:00She's probably really scared.
00:25:03That's a good point.
00:25:06That actually helps a lot.
00:25:08Of course, sweetheart.
00:25:37Oh, Mary.
00:25:38Mary, what are you doing?
00:25:39Yeah, let me help you with that.
00:25:40Oh, thank you so much.
00:25:42You got it.
00:25:47You getting the door okay?
00:25:48I got it.
00:25:52Thanks again.
00:25:52You're very welcome.
00:25:53Have a good one.
00:25:54Ciao.
00:25:56Hey, Taylor.
00:25:57Hey, Ruby.
00:25:58Hey, guys.
00:25:59Want to see how far it goes?
00:26:01Yeah, sure.
00:26:11Let's see if I can get a ladder, I'll get it down, okay?
00:26:16Don't worry.
00:26:16The Midnight Ninja will get it.
00:26:18The who?
00:26:19The Midnight Ninja.
00:26:20Whenever I lose something outside, or get my soccer ball stuck in a tree, the Midnight Ninja
00:26:25comes out after dark, he gets it for me, and he leaves it on my porch.
00:26:30Wow.
00:26:30And you've seen him?
00:26:32Once.
00:26:32I woke up in the middle of the night, and he was outside.
00:26:36You'll see.
00:26:37All right.
00:26:37Well, you're sure.
00:26:39Have fun.
00:26:40Bye, Taylor.
00:26:41Bye.
00:26:50Get a grip.
00:27:03Hey there.
00:27:04Hey, I was wondering when I get a chance to meet you.
00:27:06I'm Taylor, your new neighbor.
00:27:10Sorry, I didn't mean to spook you.
00:27:12Do you like macaroons?
00:27:14Take them.
00:27:15Oh, yeah, I saw you!
00:27:16Ha!
00:27:18Yeah, see, my theory is if you make eye contact, they feel too guilty to come back.
00:27:23Hey, you must be the new guy.
00:27:26Hey, that's me, yeah, and I...
00:27:28Thanks for scaring off that porch, pirate.
00:27:31Okay.
00:27:32To be honest, I didn't know that's what I was doing, but look, I'm happy to help.
00:27:35Um, I heard your daughter lives here.
00:27:38I see you met Carl.
00:27:39Yeah.
00:27:39Yeah, that's right.
00:27:40I'm Wes, by the way.
00:27:42Take this.
00:27:43Taylor, very nice to meet you.
00:27:44Hey, what are you doing in an hour?
00:27:46You want to come over for dinner?
00:27:47I'm sure my daughter would love to thank you in person for saving her packages.
00:27:50I'm making my world-famous lasagna.
00:27:53Storebot.
00:27:55That's very kind of you, Wes.
00:27:57I'm going to have to take a rain check.
00:27:58My mom's actually coming over tonight.
00:28:00All right, deal.
00:28:01You can bring her.
00:28:02Wait, well, I...
00:28:03Are you sure?
00:28:04Yeah.
00:28:05Really?
00:28:05Yeah.
00:28:06Okay, yeah.
00:28:07Yeah, we'd love to.
00:28:08Um, do you want us to bring anything?
00:28:10No, you're good.
00:28:11You're good.
00:28:11Dessert.
00:28:13Ice cream.
00:28:14All right.
00:28:15Yeah, done.
00:28:16Okay.
00:28:17I'll, um, I'll see you in, uh, in an hour.
00:28:19Great.
00:28:24Seth?
00:28:26Seth?
00:28:29Hey.
00:28:31You okay?
00:28:32Uh-huh.
00:28:34Ah, I see that you have...
00:28:36Redecorated.
00:28:37Redecorated.
00:28:37Too many distractions.
00:28:40Besides, the wall doesn't look at me funny.
00:28:44Sid, I don't think anybody looks at you funny.
00:28:47Yeah, well, you didn't see me collapse five times in front of my new therapist.
00:28:53No.
00:28:54I don't know.
00:28:54Yep.
00:28:57You know Taylor, the guy next door?
00:29:00Yeah.
00:29:01Not only is he cute and charming, he also happens to be the therapist you recommended.
00:29:07No.
00:29:09Did you know?
00:29:10No, hey, no.
00:29:12No, I did not.
00:29:13I swear to you, on the last scoop of mint chocolate chip ice cream on the planet.
00:29:19I believe you.
00:29:22Okay.
00:29:23So, you're not okay?
00:29:26Not really, no.
00:29:29But, I've rearranged things, I have my noise-canceling headphones.
00:29:34I'd say I'm coping quite well.
00:29:37You know, you don't have to be perfect in front of that guy.
00:29:40I was the complete opposite of perfect.
00:29:44Now I can't stop thinking about how he's seen all of it.
00:29:49The worst of it.
00:29:50Before I even had a chance to say,
00:29:52Hey, guess what?
00:29:54I'm your next door neighbor.
00:29:56What a coincidence.
00:29:59So, we're just hiding then?
00:30:03Regrouping.
00:30:04Strategically.
00:30:06Okay.
00:30:07Oh, hey.
00:30:07Speaking of strategy.
00:30:10I may have invited Taylor and his mom over for dinner.
00:30:15Dad?
00:30:16I don't know what happened.
00:30:17He saved you packages, right?
00:30:19I panicked.
00:30:20He found out about my lasagna.
00:30:22Because I told him.
00:30:23And the rest is a blur.
00:30:24This is so bad.
00:30:27He already thinks I'm a disaster.
00:30:30No, no.
00:30:30Hey, he's a therapist.
00:30:32Right?
00:30:32He is literally paid to understand people who feel like disasters.
00:30:37Just have some dinner with us.
00:30:39No pressure.
00:30:40Just be someone who enjoys food with other humans.
00:30:47Fine.
00:30:48It's going to be so hard to make eye contact with him.
00:30:51No, we can face your chair at the wall.
00:30:58Welcome!
00:30:59We, uh, brought ice cream.
00:31:00And cake.
00:31:01Hope you like chocolate.
00:31:02Oh, we love chocolate.
00:31:05Plan.
00:31:06Wes, this is my mom, Annie.
00:31:08Annie.
00:31:08Hi.
00:31:10Wait a second.
00:31:12I know you.
00:31:13You do?
00:31:14Yeah.
00:31:15Maxim pickleball courts.
00:31:17You are a legend.
00:31:18Oh, I wouldn't go that far.
00:31:20Oh, come on.
00:31:21Her third shot drop?
00:31:23It's ridiculous.
00:31:24I don't think we've played together.
00:31:26Well, no, we have not.
00:31:28But I've watched.
00:31:29A lot.
00:31:31Do you play as well?
00:31:33Um, yeah.
00:31:34My backhand is horrible.
00:31:37However, my forehand?
00:31:38Worse.
00:31:39Yeah.
00:31:40Come on in.
00:31:40Dinner's ready.
00:31:42This is my daughter, Sydney.
00:31:45Say hello, Sydney.
00:31:47Hi.
00:31:48I'm Sydney.
00:31:50Your next door neighbor.
00:31:52Hi.
00:31:53And also, your patient.
00:31:56Don't worry.
00:31:56You're off the clocks.
00:31:58You know, what's funny is I'm the one that recommended you.
00:32:01Yeah, I had no clue you lived next door.
00:32:04Well, thank you for the referral.
00:32:06Hey, wait a second.
00:32:08It was your son that everybody was talking about a pickleball.
00:32:12How about that, huh?
00:32:13Talk about kismet.
00:32:15Indeed.
00:32:15Well, this evening just got more interesting.
00:32:19Sydney, it is lovely meeting you.
00:32:20Where should I put this cake?
00:32:22On the counter, it's fine.
00:32:28Sydney, how long have you lived here?
00:32:30A few years now.
00:32:33She mostly keeps to herself, but we're trying to change that.
00:32:38Trying being the key word.
00:32:44So, Taylor, how's therapist life treating you?
00:32:47It's good.
00:32:48Yeah, it's good.
00:32:49I love what I do.
00:32:51You know, if I can help people feel a little less alone in the world,
00:32:54it's a good day.
00:32:57He's being humble.
00:32:59He had a great practice in Denver.
00:33:01Gave it all up to keep an eye on his mom.
00:33:04Oh.
00:33:04Well, I say it's nice having your kids live nearby.
00:33:08I highly recommend it.
00:33:09You two live near one another?
00:33:11Oh, yeah.
00:33:12I live next door.
00:33:13I think it's kind of awesome, honestly.
00:33:16Being close to family, you don't see much of that anymore.
00:33:21It has its perks.
00:33:23Built-in sports system.
00:33:25Endless supply of ice cream.
00:33:30And great jokes.
00:33:31She loves the jokes.
00:33:33So, I'm playing this guy, total hotshot.
00:33:35Shows up with a monogram, paddle, matching headband.
00:33:39You would think he was about to compete in the Olympics.
00:33:41Oh, yes, sir.
00:33:43Yeah, this guy sounds like a peach.
00:33:44Oh, he was.
00:33:45And he spent half the match trash-talking me.
00:33:47No.
00:33:48You're not ready for this serve.
00:33:49Hope your reflexes are faster than average for your age.
00:33:51You've got to be kidding me.
00:33:52You name it.
00:33:53Oh.
00:33:53So, he hits this serve that is this slow, I could have checked my...
00:33:59Can I help?
00:34:00It's fine.
00:34:00I got it.
00:34:01No, no.
00:34:01It's all good.
00:34:02I love it fast.
00:34:04Yeah.
00:34:05He trips over his own shoe.
00:34:07Oh!
00:34:08Face first, right into the net.
00:34:10Oh, oh, that's amazing.
00:34:11Oh, I would have loved to have seen that.
00:34:14So, please tell me you just killed this guy.
00:34:17Well, let's just say the final score was not in his favor.
00:34:20Oh, yeah.
00:34:21I'm sure.
00:34:21I'm sure it was.
00:34:23Oh, that's good.
00:34:24That's rewarding, I'm sure.
00:34:26Hey, did you see that Brace Park they're putting in the courts there?
00:34:29No.
00:34:29Yeah, they're taking out one of the tennis courts.
00:34:31Please don't leave me alone with those two.
00:34:33Imagine a little bit, Chelsea.
00:34:35You mean to tell me you're not emotionally invested in their riveting pickleball conversation?
00:34:39Not as much as your dad.
00:34:41Your mom has a very enthusiastic storyteller.
00:34:44Oh, she just really likes pickleball.
00:34:47You could always fail.
00:34:50Make a migraine or go out the window.
00:34:54Oh, no.
00:34:55No, I could never leave you to suffer that situation alone.
00:35:00Admit it.
00:35:01You're just here for the cake.
00:35:03No, that's not true.
00:35:05I also have deep emotional ties to the ice cream.
00:35:11Sidney, hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:35:13Gotta go.
00:35:14Here we go.
00:35:15Here we go.
00:35:15I think I'm gonna move away now.
00:35:17Maybe change my name.
00:35:19Are you all right?
00:35:22Yeah.
00:35:23Just emotionally frosted.
00:35:26Oh, yes.
00:35:27Yes, that's my girl.
00:35:29Dad.
00:35:30Oh, Dad.
00:35:31I've never been so proud of you.
00:35:33That makes one of us.
00:35:35Yeah.
00:35:36Thank you for having us, Sidney.
00:35:38It was a memorable evening.
00:35:40It was something.
00:35:42I hope to see you around more.
00:35:45Maybe.
00:35:46Taylor, hey, it was great meeting you.
00:35:48Annie, you let me know if you ever want to play a game.
00:35:51No, I'd love that.
00:35:52Just don't expect me to go easy on you.
00:35:55Oh, no, heavens.
00:35:56No.
00:35:58All right, walk safe now.
00:35:59You two.
00:36:05Yeah, that was the most fun that I've had in years.
00:36:08That's great.
00:36:09I'm happy for you.
00:36:10Um, what?
00:36:12I thought that went well.
00:36:14Yeah, nothing like public humiliation around out an evening.
00:36:18Sid.
00:36:24Wow, that cake is probably still good.
00:36:28You know, I gave it a good try.
00:36:30I think I'd like to go back to being boring again.
00:36:33Oh, okay.
00:36:34Look, no pressure from me if you don't want to see Taylor.
00:36:37But are you really going to throw the towel in after one tiny little face plant?
00:36:42It's been more than one face plant.
00:36:44Ever since Taylor moved in next door, I can't stay vertical.
00:36:47Sidney, come on, don't beat yourself up.
00:36:50Tonight wasn't perfect, but you were laughing.
00:36:53You were you around others.
00:36:55Other people, not just me.
00:36:56Yeah, until I wasn't.
00:37:00Yeah, so what?
00:37:02Life is awkward.
00:37:03Sometimes it gets messy.
00:37:05Sometimes it's a chocolate cake to the face.
00:37:08But honestly, isn't that better than getting a cake that says boring because you never took a risk?
00:37:13I knew you were going to bring that cake back around.
00:37:15Of course I was.
00:37:16Are you kidding?
00:37:17I was hanging out of that since the second they walked in.
00:37:20Besides, I think Taylor and Annie are pretty good people to fall down in front of.
00:37:25You really like her, don't you?
00:37:27What, Annie?
00:37:28Yeah, she's cool.
00:37:30She's fun.
00:37:31She's competitive, man.
00:37:33She's probably the most dangerous woman with a pickleball paddle.
00:37:36Mm-hmm.
00:37:38You know she's way out of your league.
00:37:40Oh, I know.
00:37:41She's a 5.0 plus, most likely.
00:37:44I'm a 2.0, 2.5 on a good day.
00:37:48What are you talking about?
00:37:49Pickleball rankings.
00:37:51It's how you rank your play.
00:37:53Wait, what are you talking about?
00:37:55Nothing.
00:37:57Wait, what does that look?
00:37:59What look?
00:38:00Yeah, that look like you're plotting something.
00:38:03Maybe I'm just brainstorming how to avoid another surprise dinner ambush.
00:38:07Me too much.
00:38:07Me too much.
00:38:18Bye.
00:38:19Bye.
00:38:19Bye.
00:38:22Bye.
00:38:26Bye.
00:38:27Bye.
00:38:29Let's go.
00:39:09Good morning, Taylor.
00:39:12Good morning.
00:39:13Someone left this on my porch.
00:39:15I just found it with no note.
00:39:17That's a pretty thoughtful little mystery gift, isn't it?
00:39:21I thought maybe it was you.
00:39:23No, it wasn't me.
00:39:25Hey, maybe it was the Midnight Ninja.
00:39:26What?
00:39:27Ruby was saying that when her stuff gets stuck, somebody always returns it by morning.
00:39:31She calls him the Midnight Ninja.
00:39:34Midnight Ninja.
00:39:35Yeah.
00:39:42Come on.
00:39:43What's going on here?
00:39:46Hey, Tom.
00:39:47You need a hand?
00:39:49Well, not unless that hand comes with an extra can of gas.
00:39:53Sorry.
00:39:55Figures I'd run out on the day it hits optimal mowing humidity.
00:39:59All right, Grass.
00:40:01You win today.
00:40:02But tomorrow, I'm coming for you.
00:40:07Have a good one.
00:40:09Yeah.
00:40:09Sorry I, uh, wasn't more help.
00:40:11Offer still counts.
00:40:11It's...
00:40:16Oh!
00:40:20Oh, man!
00:40:21Keeping that Midnight Ninja busy, huh?
00:40:29Hey, Judy.
00:40:30Did Sydney Carter schedule another appointment?
00:40:32Hmm.
00:40:33Let me see.
00:40:36Uh, doesn't look like she has.
00:40:38Would you mind just giving her a quick call?
00:40:41See if she wants to come in again.
00:40:42Just as a, like, a courtesy follow-up.
00:40:45Sure.
00:40:45Thanks.
00:41:02Hello?
00:41:03Hi, Sydney.
00:41:04This is Judy from Dr. Bennett's office.
00:41:06Just calling to see if you want to set up another session with him.
00:41:10Oh, um, no thank you.
00:41:12I'm good for now, thanks.
00:41:14Are you sure he's really...
00:41:16Very sure.
00:41:16Thanks, Judy.
00:41:17Bye.
00:41:23Doesn't sound like she's interested.
00:41:28Okay.
00:41:29Uh, well, thank you for making the call.
00:41:57Did I do something wrong?
00:42:22Horch pirates.
00:42:24Hey!
00:42:25You get away from that lawnmower!
00:42:27Oh, no, you don't!
00:42:34Sydney?
00:42:37Uh, hi.
00:42:40What?
00:42:41I'm so sorry.
00:42:42I didn't know it was you.
00:42:43Are you okay?
00:42:45What are you doing with Tom's lawnmower?
00:42:49Filling the tank up with gas.
00:42:51At four in the morning?
00:42:55What are you doing up this room?
00:42:59Couldn't sleep.
00:43:02Sorry to hear that.
00:43:06What?
00:43:07Wait.
00:43:10Wait, Sydney!
00:43:11Sydney!
00:43:13Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.
00:43:14You're the midnight ninja?
00:43:16Hey, I...
00:43:17Sorry.
00:43:18I heard you weren't interested in any more therapy sessions with me.
00:43:22Not really.
00:43:24No.
00:43:25Did I do something?
00:43:27Because if I did, I'd really like to know so I can fix it.
00:43:30You didn't do anything.
00:43:33It's just not gonna work, okay?
00:43:35What about one more session free of charge?
00:43:38Just one more.
00:43:39And if you still feel like it's not gonna work, I won't push it.
00:43:41I promise.
00:43:44Why do you care so much?
00:43:46Why do I care?
00:43:47Because you deserve to be happy, Sydney.
00:43:50And everybody does.
00:43:52And I just think that sometimes we need that one extra person in our corner to remind us of that.
00:43:59One more session.
00:44:01That's it.
00:44:03Deal.
00:44:07Oh, is it okay?
00:44:10Sydney.
00:44:12Alright.
00:44:14You know, I'm really starting to think this is just gonna become our thing.
00:44:22Okay.
00:44:23Really hope you're alright with me breaking and entering.
00:44:27Hmm.
00:44:51Thank you, sir.
00:44:52Thank you, sir.
00:44:58Thank you, sir.
00:45:37I want to thank you for making sure I got in safely the other night.
00:45:41I mean, I did tackle you.
00:45:44And break into your house.
00:45:46So, you know, making sure you got home safe was kind of the bare minimum.
00:45:50Yeah.
00:45:56Is that poster part of a therapist starter pack?
00:45:59I swear it's in every office I've ever been in.
00:46:01I actually agonized over that poster.
00:46:05It was either that or the kitten dangling from a branch.
00:46:08Oh, yeah.
00:46:10Missed opportunity.
00:46:12The kitten's a classic.
00:46:14Yeah, well, if I ever rebrand, I'll keep that in mind.
00:46:21Thank you for being willing to give this another chance, by the way.
00:46:26One of my main goals is to help you identify what triggers your episodes.
00:46:31What puts your body on edge.
00:46:33You mean besides existing?
00:46:35I mean patterns.
00:46:37Sometimes it's tied to environments.
00:46:39Sometimes it's tied to memories.
00:46:41Things that may have happened to us.
00:46:44I try not to look back so much.
00:46:47Sure.
00:46:48Yeah, that's fair.
00:46:51But just so you know, if something does come up, you don't have to carry it alone.
00:46:59It's stupid.
00:47:00It's not stupid if it's affecting you.
00:47:02That's why we're here.
00:47:09When I was in middle school, some of the kids thought it was funny to scare me.
00:47:17Scare you?
00:47:18Yeah, slam a locker, scream in my face, jump from around a corner, just to see if I'd collapse.
00:47:27Most of the time, I did.
00:47:31I'm sorry.
00:47:33Sounds awful.
00:47:34It's middle school.
00:47:36Everyone's miserable, right?
00:47:37No, not like that.
00:47:43I guess it made me scared of being seen.
00:47:50Like I'm constantly being judged for something I can't control, so...
00:47:55So...
00:47:57I avoid people.
00:48:00No people, no surprises, no collapses, no judgment.
00:48:07Clean math.
00:48:09But no connection, either.
00:48:12You've been carrying this around for a long time.
00:48:16It's exhausting.
00:48:18I guess that part of it is.
00:48:22Sydney.
00:48:25You deserve to feel safe just being yourself.
00:48:31I don't know what that feels like.
00:48:33Well, then maybe that's where we start.
00:48:36We look at what happened, and we untangle it.
00:48:39Less fear, fewer episodes.
00:48:43More control of your life, Beck.
00:48:46Clean math.
00:48:50You make it sound easy.
00:48:51No, it's not.
00:48:54But it is possible.
00:48:57But it is possible.
00:48:58Especially if you can let go of the version of yourself that has to be in survival mode all the
00:49:02time.
00:49:05Progress, not perfection, right?
00:49:08That's exactly right.
00:49:11One step at a time.
00:49:14Ah?
00:49:17I'm sorry.
00:49:37I'm sorry.
00:49:41But it took us on the same right side.
00:50:26Okay.
00:50:27If you start spending money, I'm going to be losing.
00:50:29So get my wallet, go to the ATM, get me hundreds.
00:50:33You got it.
00:50:34If it works.
00:50:35I'm not saying it will.
00:50:36Did you know he'd be here?
00:50:39Well, I know they're related, but no.
00:50:42Annie has a game.
00:50:43I didn't know he'd be here.
00:50:45Okay.
00:50:47Am I stalling enough?
00:50:48Good luck.
00:50:49Okay.
00:50:50I'm going to let him play.
00:50:56Oh.
00:50:57Oh, funny seeing you here.
00:50:59I thought I'd offer some moral support.
00:51:02May I?
00:51:03Please.
00:51:04I brought snacks.
00:51:06Hmm.
00:51:08But do you have any pickles?
00:51:10Because pickleball?
00:51:13Sorry.
00:51:14This is what happens when your dad is your only friend.
00:51:17Yeah, well, somehow you kind of pull it off.
00:51:19Okay.
00:51:20Okay.
00:51:20That's a relief to hear.
00:51:29I think they're flirting.
00:51:32This is embarrassing.
00:51:33No.
00:51:34They're not flirting.
00:51:36They're just...
00:51:37They're just warming up.
00:51:39Oh, I'm so...
00:51:40Really...
00:51:42Really close to each other.
00:51:48You know what would be wild?
00:51:49What?
00:51:51If we helped it happen.
00:51:54And with what happened?
00:51:56Them.
00:51:57Well, just a little push.
00:52:00Two eligible adults with similar interests who clearly need an excuse to spend more time together.
00:52:06You...
00:52:07You want a parent trap then?
00:52:09Yes.
00:52:11I mean, do you think it'll work?
00:52:13I have no idea.
00:52:15But it'll be fun to try.
00:52:20Besides...
00:52:20Maybe playing social matchmaker will help me get better at being...
00:52:25I don't know...
00:52:27More social?
00:52:31Alright.
00:52:34I'm in.
00:52:36Okay.
00:52:40Lunch tomorrow sounds perfect, Mom.
00:52:42I'll see you then.
00:52:46Taylor said I should keep doing the small things for now.
00:52:50Yeah, Dad, I was thinking lunch seemed doable.
00:52:54Can you meet me tomorrow?
00:53:09Come here.
00:53:09Oh!
00:53:10Look!
00:53:11I'm sorry.
00:53:12Ah!
00:53:13I did not mean to scare you.
00:53:14I'm so sorry.
00:53:15What are you doing here?
00:53:16I'm just meeting Taylor.
00:53:17No kidding.
00:53:18I meet Sydney.
00:53:18Nice.
00:53:19At some point.
00:53:20I don't know where she is.
00:53:22Yeah.
00:53:22I don't know where Taylor is either.
00:53:24Hey!
00:53:24You gotta get in line.
00:53:26Come on, guys.
00:53:29Hey, Dad.
00:53:30Smells so good.
00:53:31I just...
00:53:32Wanted in.
00:53:34I guess there are some things that a mom would teach better than a dad.
00:53:41Like...
00:53:42Toilet seats?
00:53:43They're supposed to go down.
00:53:45Yeah.
00:53:46I had to learn that from TV.
00:54:01Oh, let me guess.
00:54:03Sydney couldn't make it.
00:54:05Yeah.
00:54:05I just got a text.
00:54:06Doesn't that...
00:54:07That's so strange.
00:54:07That's so strange.
00:54:09Hard to believe.
00:54:10Well, it is a good day for a hike.
00:54:12Let's do it.
00:54:13Do what I mean.
00:54:14Yeah.
00:54:15Make it a short one.
00:54:16We'll just go the way.
00:54:16Yeah.
00:54:17I couldn't go to any dances.
00:54:20So, my senior year, my dad shows up in a limo.
00:54:26He had left a dress out for me on my bed.
00:54:29You know.
00:54:31Okay.
00:54:33Sorry.
00:54:36Ah!
00:54:37Oops!
00:54:44Oh!
00:54:45Oh!
00:54:46I like this style.
00:54:51Oh!
00:54:54Am I serving again?
00:54:56Keep it going.
00:54:57Sorry.
00:54:58Woo!
00:54:59No!
00:55:00No!
00:55:00No!
00:55:01No!
00:55:01No!
00:55:01No!
00:55:01No!
00:55:01No!
00:55:02No!
00:55:02I'm just a...
00:55:03Sorry.
00:55:05Oh!
00:55:06Got it!
00:55:06Yup!
00:55:07Ooh!
00:55:08Ah!
00:55:09Ah!
00:55:10Whoa!
00:55:12Alright.
00:55:14All right.
00:55:17Ah!
00:55:24Ah!
00:55:25Ah!
00:55:26Ah!
00:55:30Oh!
00:55:30for sure. But you held your own out there. I mean, that backhand, that was dangerous.
00:55:34Oh, that? It was pure luck. It'll never happen again.
00:55:42Is that why you became a therapist? Because of her?
00:55:46Yeah, yeah. Growing up, she had a home office. And watching people come in with just the weight
00:55:55of the world on their shoulders and then leave with it somehow being lifted. It was like,
00:56:00watching someone do magic. Maybe you want to do the same.
00:56:06Was it hard having a therapist for a mom? Or was it just kind of nice?
00:56:11Yes. A little bit of both. She always knew when I was holding something back, which is,
00:56:17you know, it's frustrating when you're a kid who's trying to keep secrets. But at the same
00:56:24time, she was absolutely the first person I would go to when things felt overwhelming.
00:56:30What about you and your mom? If you don't mind me asking.
00:56:36Honestly, I was so young when she passed away. I don't remember much.
00:56:43But I do remember her being sweet and warm.
00:56:51Do you ever wonder if you should have stayed in Denver?
00:56:56Annie doesn't seem like she needs looking after.
00:57:00She actually had breast cancer a few years ago.
00:57:03I'm really sorry.
00:57:05It's all good now. She's good. She's more than good. You saw her on the court. She's...
00:57:11But it just, it took a long time. Too long for me to realize how much I should have been
00:57:17there.
00:57:19And then there's always that little voice in the back of your head, you know?
00:57:23One that's saying, what if it, what if it happens again?
00:57:27Well, I'm glad you're both here.
00:57:30Yeah, me too.
00:57:38Thanks for walking me home.
00:57:40Of course.
00:57:41I mean, now there is the huge inconvenience of me walking all the way back to my place, but...
00:57:47Right.
00:57:51Hey, I've been thinking.
00:57:53I want to throw a barbecue this weekend.
00:57:56Invite the neighbors. Nothing big, just outside with people.
00:58:01I don't know what I'm doing, but I think I want to try.
00:58:05I think that sounds like a great idea.
00:58:08Yeah?
00:58:08Yeah.
00:58:10Well, you're invited.
00:58:12Well, I'll be there.
00:58:15Good night, Taylor.
00:58:17Good night, Sydney.
00:58:28Burgers and veggie skewers.
00:58:33I think we're all set.
00:58:35Did you get a chance to get the tiki torches?
00:58:37I sure did.
00:58:38I'm going to set them up for you.
00:58:42I talked to all of the neighbors they're in.
00:58:46Including Coral.
00:58:48Grace yourself.
00:58:49All of them?
00:58:51Oh, yeah.
00:58:52You lit the social fire.
00:58:53I just fanned the flames.
00:58:55Wow.
00:58:56I'm regretting this already.
00:58:59How are things going with Taylor?
00:59:02What?
00:59:02Oh, there's nothing going on with me and Taylor.
00:59:07Yeah, I'm talking about therapy.
00:59:09Oh.
00:59:10Yeah, yeah.
00:59:11How's the therapy going with Taylor?
00:59:15Good.
00:59:15Good.
00:59:18Really good.
00:59:19Actually, I'm feeling braver these days.
00:59:24I guess that's what this whole barbecue thing is about.
00:59:26Me trying not to hide so much.
00:59:28Yeah.
00:59:29That's great.
00:59:30That's what you wanted, right?
00:59:31Yeah.
00:59:32Still pretty scary, though.
00:59:35I just hope it goes well.
00:59:38Hey, what could go wrong?
00:59:42Yeah.
00:59:44Boy, they really went the extra mile planning this one, huh?
00:59:47I'm really impressed with what they've done.
00:59:49Buncakes and everything.
00:59:50I have to say, you are awfully calm for being ambushed into a romantic picnic, though.
00:59:54No, it's, uh, company's good.
00:59:57It helps.
00:59:58Yeah.
00:59:58Yeah.
00:59:59Yeah.
01:00:00I've been super into you since I saw you terrorize the courts.
01:00:04You make me laugh, genuinely.
01:00:08And you're very kind.
01:00:11You have an amazing smile.
01:00:13You kill me with that smile.
01:00:15I love it.
01:00:17I'm glad they picked you to set me up with.
01:00:20Maybe they got it right, after all.
01:00:26Do you think they'll finally stop dancing around?
01:00:29Maybe if they're not distracted by the two weirdos stalking them.
01:00:32We're not stalking, we're supervising.
01:00:35Yes, you're right.
01:00:36Totally normal behavior.
01:00:38I can't even see what they're doing, can you?
01:00:40No, I think we're too full.
01:00:44Should we move closer?
01:00:47Yeah.
01:00:54Sidney, okay, Sidney.
01:00:58Sorry.
01:00:59I think I just ruined whatever that was.
01:01:04No, you didn't, you didn't ruin anything.
01:01:08This is why I don't do moments like that.
01:01:11I'm sorry.
01:01:12I should, I should have stopped it.
01:01:17I should just take you home.
01:01:21Okay.
01:01:32There's something I need to tell you.
01:01:34And it's something I probably should have said a lot sooner.
01:01:38You didn't buy a motorcycle or anything, did you?
01:01:40Because if you're having a midlife crisis early, I swear, Taylor.
01:01:43No.
01:01:45No, it's nothing like that.
01:01:47It's a lot worse.
01:01:49Worse?
01:01:50Yeah.
01:01:53It's Sidney.
01:01:57I want to help her.
01:01:59I am, I am helping her.
01:02:02But I'm also really starting to like her.
01:02:07A lot.
01:02:09Okay.
01:02:10So that's what this is.
01:02:13Has anything happened?
01:02:15No.
01:02:18Almost.
01:02:18But, but no, no.
01:02:20Taylor, you have got to step back.
01:02:24You can't be her therapist and whatever else it is you're hoping to be.
01:02:27It's not okay.
01:02:28You know that.
01:02:31That's why boundaries exist.
01:02:32To protect you both.
01:02:35But what if stepping back means I'm giving up on her when she needs me the most?
01:02:40You've done your job.
01:02:42You've done your job.
01:02:43It's not your responsibility to fix everything.
01:02:46And look, if this is meant to happen, it will.
01:02:48But it can't if you're her therapist.
01:02:54I know.
01:02:58I know.
01:03:20The Midnight Ninja.
01:03:22Yeah!
01:03:26Awesome!
01:03:37Hey! Who's that? Who's that?
01:03:39Who's out there?
01:04:04You're not here, are you?
01:04:10Am I fixed?
01:04:22Do you want cheese on yours? Yeah.
01:04:24Okay, and do you want some mayonnaise?
01:04:26There you go.
01:04:27Thanks for coming.
01:04:32Hey, thanks so much for inviting us.
01:04:35It's so nice to get out of the house and go somewhere.
01:04:38Especially if it's just across the street.
01:04:40Yeah, I wish I would have done it sooner.
01:04:42Hi! It's so great to finally meet you.
01:04:46You must be Carl.
01:04:47Yes, that's me.
01:04:49Thanks for coming.
01:04:57Oh! What are you doing here?
01:04:59Dad!
01:04:59You ready? You ready right now? I'll get you good.
01:05:01Uh, yeah.
01:05:02Okay.
01:05:02With cheese.
01:05:04Brought dessert.
01:05:06Hi! Let's get this in the freezer.
01:05:08Come inside with me. There's something I want to tell you.
01:05:11Really? I actually have something to tell you as well.
01:05:15Oh?
01:05:19So...
01:05:21I think I'm getting better.
01:05:25What?
01:05:26I had a really intense night last night where I should have had multiple cataplexy episodes.
01:05:30But I didn't.
01:05:32Wow. I mean, that sounds like progress.
01:05:37Thought you'd be a little more excited.
01:05:39I am.
01:05:40I...
01:05:41I am.
01:05:42I'm sorry.
01:05:43That's wonderful news.
01:05:44I...
01:05:45Sorry.
01:05:46You said you had something to tell me.
01:05:49Yes, I did.
01:05:51Yep.
01:05:53Um...
01:05:55I can't keep doing this.
01:06:00Doing what?
01:06:01What?
01:06:02I can't be your therapist anymore.
01:06:09Oh.
01:06:12Well, that's pretty good timing, I guess.
01:06:15I just...
01:06:16I keep thinking about us and about how I feel.
01:06:19And I mean, especially after the other day.
01:06:21You know, when we almost, um...
01:06:22Right.
01:06:24And...
01:06:25How do you feel?
01:06:29I'm falling for you, Sydney.
01:06:34And I can't be your therapist anymore because...
01:06:38Because I want to be with you.
01:06:43You do?
01:06:46Yeah.
01:06:53I don't know what I'm trying to do.
01:07:11Okay, Sydney, hey.
01:07:13Hey, hey.
01:07:14Send me.
01:07:16Stay with me.
01:07:17You're okay?
01:07:18No.
01:07:19No.
01:07:20No, I thought everything was different.
01:07:22I was sorry.
01:07:23This was a mistake.
01:07:24This is not a mistake. This is...
01:07:26Yes, it is.
01:07:28I can't believe I thought...
01:07:31I can't be the person you want me to be.
01:07:36I'm always gonna mess it up.
01:07:38This is how it's gonna be every time,
01:07:39and one day you're gonna hate me for it.
01:07:41I'm not gonna hate you for it. I want this...
01:07:44You don't understand.
01:07:45It's always going to be like this.
01:07:48It's never gonna be easy.
01:07:50And I can't...
01:07:52I won't drag you through it.
01:07:55Sydney, what are you saying?
01:07:57Please just go.
01:08:00Sydney, can we please just talk about this?
01:08:03Please.
01:08:09Okay.
01:08:41No, no.
01:08:42Don't do me wrong.
01:08:43This is delicious.
01:08:44No, no, no.
01:08:44Of course.
01:08:45You tried because...
01:08:46You, you gave it to me.
01:08:48Remember?
01:08:51Don't do me wrong.
01:08:54Don't do me wrong.
01:08:56Because it's supposed to be mine.
01:08:57Once you try it...
01:09:06Hey, there's me.
01:09:14It's okay.
01:09:15It's okay.
01:09:20It's okay.
01:09:21It's okay.
01:09:23It's okay.
01:09:26Everything's all right.
01:09:29It's okay.
01:09:30It's okay.
01:09:31It's okay.
01:09:31I got you.
01:09:46I'm gonna swing by tomorrow.
01:09:48Finish cleaning up.
01:09:51You don't have to do that.
01:09:53You don't have to do that.
01:09:54That is my right as a dad.
01:10:03I'm sorry, Syd.
01:10:07baby.
01:10:52Taylor, I brought this back.
01:10:55I even topped it off for you.
01:10:57Actually, it wasn't me who filled it.
01:10:59It was Sydney.
01:11:01No kidding.
01:11:03Well, she's going to need a few days to recover after that barbecue, but after that, I'll tell her thanks.
01:11:08Recover from what?
01:11:09She passed out.
01:11:11Right into a tiki torch, whole tablecloth, went up in flames.
01:11:15She was fine, physically, but it's kind of a scene.
01:11:22So, anyway, hope she's all right.
01:11:26She's one of the good ones.
01:11:28See you later.
01:11:30Yeah, she is.
01:12:01She's one of the good ones.
01:12:04She's one of the good ones.
01:12:07She's one of the good ones.
01:13:35She's going to be okay.
01:13:37I should have done more.
01:13:40You were there, and that's doing more than Mo.
01:13:43But I wasn't there.
01:13:45Not when she really needed it.
01:13:48Taylor, you're not a life raft.
01:13:51You have to trust she knows how to swim, or at least give her the space to learn on her
01:13:55own.
01:13:57You taught her what you could, and maybe you weren't there in that exact moment that you think she needed.
01:14:03But you showed up.
01:14:06And you just have to let her decide the rest.
01:14:11How'd you get so smart?
01:14:14Years of treating patients and raising one very stubborn son.
01:14:38You're too kind.
01:14:40Mowing Sidney's lawn and mine?
01:14:43I didn't do it to be kind.
01:14:45Both your lawns are keeping me up at night.
01:14:47Well, thank you.
01:14:49Hey!
01:14:50You gonna mow my lawn next, Tom?
01:14:52That would be a no for me, Carl.
01:14:56Well, I guess we all understand now why Sidney never leaves the house.
01:15:02That barbecue?
01:15:03Wow.
01:15:04If I faceplanted into a table and lit it on fire, I'd never show my face either.
01:15:10You know what?
01:15:10It was the tiki torch that lit everything on fire.
01:15:13And for the record, Carl, she's actually a really sweet person, okay?
01:15:17Dropped a can of gas off from my mower in the middle of the night.
01:15:21Didn't say anything.
01:15:22Just did it.
01:15:23She did it in the night.
01:15:24And secretly.
01:15:26I didn't see her do it, but Taylor told me.
01:15:29It's Sidney.
01:15:31She's the Midnight Ninja.
01:15:32Sorry, the what?
01:15:34Ask Ruby.
01:15:35She said there's someone who's been returning her soccer ball at night.
01:15:38And think about it.
01:15:40Random things showing up right when people needed it.
01:15:43Uh, not everyone.
01:15:46Well, maybe she was too busy helping people in need of kindness instead of commentary.
01:15:51And maybe it's not about being noticed, but about noticing.
01:15:58She's been showing up for us this whole time.
01:16:01And maybe it's time we start showing up for her.
01:16:14Hey, there's a gas can on your front porch.
01:16:20You okay?
01:16:22It's been a week.
01:16:25Yeah, I'm fine.
01:16:27I'm just tired.
01:16:36Yeah, I'm just tired.
01:16:41Yeah, I kind of don't believe you.
01:16:45These plants are dying.
01:16:50I'm thinking about selling.
01:16:53Well, your house?
01:16:55Yeah, I can move to Boring Oregon.
01:17:01Boring Oregon.
01:17:02That is not...
01:17:03It's a real place.
01:17:04No.
01:17:04I googled it.
01:17:07The most boring place in the world.
01:17:09Perfect for someone like me.
01:17:12Well, I think you're joking.
01:17:14But just in case you're not...
01:17:18Running away won't fix it.
01:17:21I'm just accepting things for the way they are.
01:17:24My narcolepsy won.
01:17:26I thought it could get better, but I can't.
01:17:29It's always going to be there.
01:17:35Yeah, well...
01:17:37You're right.
01:17:39It's always going to be a part of your life.
01:17:43But it does not get to take all of it.
01:17:49You wanted more.
01:17:51Remember?
01:17:52A fuller life?
01:17:56Don't let it convince you that you can't have it.
01:18:08I love you.
01:18:10And, uh...
01:18:13I will support you whatever you want to do.
01:18:20Just don't disappear.
01:18:21Just don't disappear.
01:18:29Never.
01:18:51Are you here to tell me I'm being a coward?
01:19:03You know, I used to be terrified of you.
01:19:07You represented all the things about me I wish would just disappear.
01:19:13And if I could finally make it all stop...
01:19:17Then I'd be happy.
01:19:22I realize...
01:19:24That's never going to happen.
01:19:27I guess what I'm trying to say is...
01:19:31I think it's time we learn to live with each other.
01:19:36And I mean really live.
01:19:41What do you say?
01:19:50Good night, dragon.
01:20:19We made it for you.
01:20:21We made it for you.
01:20:21We made it for you.
01:20:21Oh, wow.
01:20:24These are amazing.
01:20:25They're definitely going on my fridge.
01:20:27I just made some tea.
01:20:29Would you like some?
01:20:32I'd love some.
01:20:33How long do you steep yours for?
01:20:36Four minutes, max.
01:20:37Any longer than that, it starts to get bitter.
01:20:39Like it's holding a grudge.
01:20:42That's how I feel about Oolang.
01:20:45Someone left an art supply kit on her porch a couple weeks ago.
01:20:49My son hasn't put it down since.
01:20:52I don't know who's been sending us these gifts, but...
01:20:56If it was you...
01:20:58It meant the world.
01:21:00I'm glad they helped.
01:21:05Adjusting to my husband being overseas has been...
01:21:09Rough.
01:21:11Some mornings, flowers or an art supply kit feels like a lifeline.
01:21:17Like someone saw me.
01:21:20Even when I did not want to be seen.
01:21:24I know that feeling.
01:21:27It's hard trying to connect when you've forgotten how.
01:21:31Yeah, making friends in your thirties.
01:21:34Feels like trying to join a club no one talks about.
01:21:42Tea again next Tuesday?
01:21:46Absolutely.
01:21:53Hey.
01:21:55Um, I was hoping to catch you.
01:21:58I just wanted to apologize for not being the best neighbor.
01:22:04Wow.
01:22:06Thanks, Carl.
01:22:08These are for Mary.
01:22:10I think I owe her, too.
01:22:14Hey, Mary and I are actually having tea at my house next Tuesday if you want to join.
01:22:20Really?
01:22:21Yes.
01:22:22I'll bring scones.
01:22:24I have this recipe that is unbelievable.
01:22:28That's great.
01:22:29I missed a spot yesterday.
01:22:31Oh, it looks great, Tom.
01:22:34Hey, Carl.
01:22:35Yours is next.
01:22:37Tom, thank you!
01:22:39Don't thank me, Carl.
01:22:40Your edging is a literal disaster.
01:22:44I'm excited to try those scones.
01:22:46Oh, you're going to love them.
01:22:48I think.
01:22:50Careful around the flower bed, Tom!
01:22:51Mom?
01:23:20Sidney?
01:23:26Hi.
01:23:30Can we start over?
01:23:34Yeah.
01:23:38I'm Sidney.
01:23:40Your next-door neighbor.
01:23:43I have narcolepsy.
01:23:46Sometimes it ruins important moments, but...
01:23:49I've decided it's not going to ruin my life.
01:23:54Hi, Sidney.
01:23:57I'm Taylor.
01:24:01And I'm a therapist.
01:24:04Oh, really?
01:24:05Yeah.
01:24:08Although, full disclosure, I can't treat you.
01:24:13I see.
01:24:14It's a conflict of interest.
01:24:16Hmm.
01:24:18But I'd really love the chance to get to know you without the clipboard.
01:24:23The real you.
01:24:27Narcolepsy and all.
01:24:30If you're...
01:24:42Sidney.
01:24:47I'm good.
01:24:49Yeah.
01:24:51Yeah.
01:24:52I like it.
01:25:02I like it.
01:25:06For a long time, I thought being okay meant being invisible.
01:25:10Turns out, life doesn't work that way.
01:25:13Not even for someone like me.
01:25:15Sometimes you fall.
01:25:17Sometimes it's into a chocolate cake or a tiki torch at your own barbecue.
01:25:22But if you're lucky, there's someone to laugh with you and maybe even to catch you.
01:25:40Beautiful day for a wedding.
01:25:42You bring this love, and you may now kiss the bride.
01:25:49I still don't have it all figured out, but I'm done hiding.
01:25:53So yeah, maybe happy endings do exist.
01:25:57And maybe they're not about perfection.
01:26:00They're about finding the people who see you.
01:26:03All of you.
01:26:04And love you anyway.
01:26:06And maybe that's all we really need.
01:26:09To belong.
01:26:10Let's do it.
