Transcript
00:13I'm granting you temporary custody until we can get a straight answer from the birth
00:18father.
00:18Gabrielle got exactly what she wanted.
00:21If Edie doesn't know, then that means that you just cheated on her with me.
00:25Susan got fooled again.
00:27I'm also a member of SA.
00:30And Brie got too much...
00:31Sex Addicts Anonymous?
00:33...information.
00:37Carl Meyer didn't pray often, but when he did, it was usually to ask for God's help
00:43in breaking up with a woman, and to spare him the nasty drama that usually accompanied such
00:48callous and unexpected departures.
00:52Over the years, Carl had dumped dozens of women, and not one of them had ever seen it coming.
01:00Every retreat was always meticulously planned, right down to the personalized stationery.
01:07Hence his record of successful getaways from women who did not want to see him go.
01:13So when he decided to break up with Edie Britt, Carl prayed to God yet again to help him avoid
01:19all the unnecessary drama.
01:22Unfortunately for Carl, God was in the mood to be entertained.
01:54What the hell is this?
01:57Edie, baby, calm down.
01:59Can we just be honest with ourselves, Edie?
02:00We haven't been happy in a long time?
02:02Who are you to tell me I haven't been happy, you miserable son of a bitch?
02:06I have been ecstatic!
02:08Okay.
02:09I'm the one who hasn't been happy.
02:11Then why did you propose to me?
02:14I don't know.
02:15I have told every woman in this town that we are getting married, and all you have to
02:18say to me is, I don't know?
02:20What else do you want me to say?
02:22I'm sorry.
02:23What's going on?
02:25Is there someone else?
02:31Oh, my God.
02:42Oh, crap.
02:52Come on.
03:12As he sat there, Carl couldn't help but wonder why God had forsaken him.
03:18It never occurred to him that God might be a woman.
03:28God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can
03:35and the wisdom to know the difference.
03:37The members of the Fairview chapter of AA ended every meeting with a prayer.
03:42And while most were asking God for help in resisting temptation, Brie van der Kemp was busy thinking thoughts that
03:51were downright sinful.
03:53Amen. Keep coming back. It works if you'll work it. Amen.
03:59I think you'd love the opera. The music and the voices. It's just all so passionate.
04:06Yeah, 300-pound sopranos seducing balding tenors. That'd be hot.
04:10You're making fun of me. Huh?
04:13Brie.
04:14Yes?
04:14Yeah.
04:16Maybe a little bit.
04:21What's going on here?
04:23Claude.
04:24We made plans, remember?
04:26I'm sorry. I was just about...
04:28Yeah, I saw what you were just about to do.
04:31I'm sorry, Peter, but who is this?
04:33This is Claude.
04:35He's my sponsor.
04:36Oh! Your AA sponsor?
04:37No. I'm his other sponsor.
04:41For my sex addiction.
04:43Oh.
04:44Damn it, Peter. What did I tell you?
04:47Avoid lust triggers.
04:48And what is she?
04:50Come on. Don't do this, man.
04:51She's a lust trigger. A lust trigger!
04:55Um, excuse me. I don't know what that means, but could you please stop saying it?
04:59Where's your chip? Give it to me.
05:02Do you remember how low you'd sunk when we met?
05:05This represents 12 months of hard work. Not giving in to your urges.
05:10Now, if you want to blow all that on this woman, just tell me now so I can stop wasting
05:14my time working with you.
05:26I don't want to blow it.
05:31Good. And tell the pretty lady goodbye, and that you can't socialize with her anymore.
05:38And do it quick. I'm hungry.
05:45Bad news. Ed wants us to push through tonight and finish the Edelstein reality pitch.
05:50But we're not presenting for another two weeks. Why don't we start tomorrow?
05:53But how would that help Ed avoid his marital problems?
05:56What?
05:56Oh, he's right. I hear Ed fighting with Fran on the phone every day through the office walls.
06:01That would explain all our working hours.
06:03Yeah, but you lucked out, Scavo. Darlene talked him into cutting the people who have kids in daycare loose.
06:07Hey, great. Let's go before he changes his mind.
06:09But that doesn't include you, Miss Senior VP. Ed wants you in the conference room now.
06:13You're kidding.
06:14You're his security blanket, Lynette. He stays, you stay.
06:17Jerry, can you help me get the kids down in the car?
06:19Oh. Yeah.
06:20Thanks, Jer.
06:21Sure.
06:24Lynette, get those mock-ups together, will you?
06:27Jerry, I didn't know you had a kid.
06:32Yeah, um, out of wedlock.
06:35Oh. So, see you in the morning.
06:43I'm sorry I'm late.
06:47What's going on?
06:49Carl broke up with Edie.
06:50Oh, my God.
06:51Yeah, apparently he was seeing someone.
06:54Really? Did he say who it was?
06:57I know who she is.
06:59She's a man-eating, scum-sucking hoe bag.
07:03No, he did not say.
07:05You know, when Carl dumped you, I thought that it was all your fault.
07:08Yeah, I figured that you were a nag or bad in bed, but now I see that you were just
07:14a victim, too.
07:16We have a bond, Susan.
07:19Like we're sisters.
07:22There's even a pretty one and an ugly one.
07:25Edie?
07:25Oh, I'm just saying that Carl screwed us both.
07:28Yes. Like you wouldn't believe.
07:30Guys, I'm all for bashing exes, but let's save a little of our hate for his partner in crime, the
07:34other woman.
07:35Yeah.
07:36You know, they're always coming up with these excuses to justify being a homewrecker.
07:40Exactly.
07:41Like he wouldn't have been with me if he was getting it at home.
07:43Yeah.
07:43Oh, honey, you're the love of my life. She's just a runner-up.
07:46Oh, look, the baby's doing something really cute.
07:53She's sleeping.
07:54Like an angel.
07:56Look, I think we all know that Carl is a dog.
07:59I mean, but let's face it.
08:00If these tramps weren't laying out the buffet, he wouldn't be chowing down.
08:03Well, every situation is different, and it's hard to judge until we know all the details.
08:09Which, obviously, I don't know, because how would I know?
08:13She's a slutty, slutty whore, absolutely.
08:17Yeah.
08:22Are you sure she needs that? I just put sunscreen on her.
08:24Yes, she needs the bonnet. It completes the outfit.
08:27Oh, for God's sakes, Gabby.
08:29She's never too young to start assessorizing.
08:32Besides, all the neighbors are out today, and I want them to see how happy we are.
08:35I wish they were us.
08:44Hey, uh, baby's a beauty.
08:46We think so, but we're a little biased.
08:49Oh, wow, she's got my eyes.
08:53Huh?
08:54I'm Dale.
08:56Dale Helm. I'm the baby's birth father.
09:02Oh, hi, Dale. Nice to meet you.
09:06A lot of people have been looking for you.
09:08Yeah, I know. Lawyers and stuff.
09:09I got kind of held up in Florida longer than I thought.
09:13Spring break, right?
09:14Yeah.
09:15Oh, man, we were wasted 24-7.
09:17And I got the message, and just thought my friends were messing with me.
09:21Those butt wads.
09:25Well, it's a good thing he's here.
09:27We can take him to the lawyer's office, and you can sign over full custody to us.
09:32Hey.
09:33Yeah, uh, the thing about that is, I'm gonna want the baby.
09:47Come on, you guys. We don't have to make this ugly.
09:50You're trying to take our baby. How is it not gonna be ugly?
09:52Just keep walking, Gabby. Don't engage him.
09:54Listen, Mr. Solis.
09:55No, you listen. We were granted custody.
09:58If you want her, you talk to the judge.
10:02Hey, what is the holdup?
10:03They told me I gotta talk to a judge.
10:05What the hell are you doing here, Frank?
10:06It's his baby. Give it to him.
10:08Like hell?
10:08Hey, Mrs. Solis, can I see the baby?
10:10No!
10:11Dale, just do it already.
10:13I'm not just gonna kidnap it.
10:14Why not? They did.
10:15It is your baby. Just take it.
10:20Try it.
10:22Frank.
10:25Get in, you moron.
10:27Anyways, looks like you're doing a good job with her.
10:29Dumbass!
10:30She seems clean.
10:43And like I said, we have been very happy here,
10:46and I'm sure you will be too.
10:47Well, we just love it.
10:48Yeah.
10:48Once the stairs are repaired,
10:50I'll show you the basement.
10:53What's going on?
10:55The house just sold.
10:57Start packing.
11:00Why don't you just put Caleb in an institution?
11:02It's where he belongs anyway.
11:03My mom would never let strangers take care of him.
11:05Then why don't you call the police?
11:06Then it's not up to her.
11:07If I call the police,
11:08my mom and I go to jail with Caleb.
11:10We've been hiding a murderer.
11:12Now look, if we...
11:14If we do move,
11:15I promise I will call you every day.
11:17I don't need a phone, buddy.
11:18I need a boyfriend.
11:19Would you calm down, please?
11:20Don't tell me what to do!
11:21You know, I could go to the police myself.
11:23Danielle.
11:24I just...
11:25I love you so much,
11:26I would do anything to keep you here.
11:30Yeah, I see that now.
11:32You can't leave me alone here.
11:34You have to think of something.
11:38Don't worry.
11:41I will.
12:08I will.
12:08No.
12:12OK.
12:16Let's just stop部 where they are.
12:16Oh.
12:36Oh my god!
12:48Hey, I'm so sorry, but obviously that was just meant for Tom's eyes only.
12:53Honest mistake.
12:54Don't even worry about it.
12:56Okay.
12:57Thanks.
12:57Well, I'm gonna go back in my office and continue to feel like a huge pervert.
13:02At least you and Tom have a love life.
13:05Well, we do the best we can, given the circumstances.
13:09Better than Fran and I.
13:10We're dead in that department.
13:12I don't want to bore you with the details.
13:13I appreciate that.
13:17You know, Ed, I don't want to pry into your personal business, but if you are having
13:24problems in that area, you don't have to be resigned to it.
13:28What are you suggesting?
13:29Hookers?
13:31No.
13:31Ed Farrar doesn't pay for sex.
13:33I mean, you and Fran could spice it up a bit, you know?
13:38Get the old juices flowing again.
13:41I see.
13:43Kind of like, uh, I'd like to lick you from head to foot.
13:47Uh-huh.
13:48Okay.
13:49Well, that wasn't my best work, but you can't deny results.
13:51I am in works.
13:53When I go home tonight, Tom and I are going to...
13:58Okay.
13:58Well, I'm gonna be exhausted, so I'll probably just lay there.
14:01But, trust me, Tom is gonna go to town.
14:06That's something to think about, Lord knows.
14:08You know what the sad truth is?
14:09I have been thinking about hookers.
14:13Okay.
14:14Uh, well, I hope that helped.
14:16And I'm just gonna go back and finish so we can all get out of here.
14:19Uh-huh.
14:26Let me guess.
14:28You're not here for a bear claw.
14:30No, I'm not.
14:32You're wasting your time.
14:33Look, you don't have to worry about Peter.
14:36Not while he's with me.
14:37Yeah?
14:38Why is that?
14:39Because when it comes to sex, I have an unwavering moral compass.
14:44Truly, a man could beg and plead all day long, and it wouldn't make any difference.
14:49So since I have such strong self-control, there's really no reason for us to end our friendship.
14:54The guy's a ticking bomb.
14:56You have no idea the kind of depravity that comes with this disease.
15:00Waking up in a stranger's bed every morning, cruising the park at night looking for somebody to get off with,
15:05compulsive masturbation every chance you get.
15:14For guys like Peter and me, there's no beating in the sex.
15:19It's an empty and ugly compulsion.
15:21Well, I am sorry, but the Peter I know has a little more se...
15:25Hold on.
15:31Clyde, I need some help.
15:33What are you doing here? Are you using?
15:35No.
15:36But I bought a bag.
15:37You're an embarrassment to me.
15:39Get...
15:43There's a meeting over on 10th Street.
15:45You go there.
15:46You call me after.
15:48I'm sorry.
15:49Get the hell out of my shop.
15:54I'm also a sponsor at Cocaine Anonymous.
15:57Well, aren't you the Renaissance man?
15:59Are we done here, Princess?
16:01Not yet.
16:01You obviously have an encyclopedic grasp of everything depraved.
16:05But clearly, you don't have the slightest idea about the power of a loving relationship.
16:10This is all you are to Peter.
16:13Something to satisfy his addiction.
16:15Well, I think Peter is a better man than you do, and I am not gonna let you keep us
16:19apart.
16:19Try and stop me.
16:21Peter does everything I tell him to do.
16:24That's the one thing you can depend on with addicts.
16:27They're weak.
16:40Excuse me.
16:41May I ask you something?
16:43Yes, ma'am.
16:45If a citizen, an ordinary citizen like myself, knew of someone holding a significant amount of drugs, what would my
16:54responsibilities be?
16:55You know, under the law.
16:56No.
17:10What's all this?
17:11In this one, I ran out and got the day I found out Carl was doing it with his secretary.
17:15I think you'll find this particularly helpful.
17:17It's got a chapter called Revenge, You're Only Hurting Yourself.
17:19Yeah, you know, I'm just really not into the whole reading thing.
17:22Oh.
17:23Well, um, why don't we get you out of here?
17:26Let's go see a feel-good movie.
17:28Why are you being so nice to me?
17:30Well, I just wanna help.
17:32So how about that movie?
17:34You know how I like to heal?
17:36I get hammered.
17:38Uh, well, um, then I should just go and let you get started with that.
17:44You really wanna help me?
17:45Good.
17:46Cause I'm gonna need a designated driver.
17:48Oh, uh, okay.
17:54How could he be arrested for cocaine possession?
17:56Claude swore he was clean.
17:57It's just awful, isn't it?
17:59I mean, you never know what people are doing behind your back.
18:03Would you like some milk with your cookies?
18:06Thanks.
18:07It's just, uh, he was the best sponsor I've ever had, and I don't know what I'm gonna do now.
18:13Well, I have been doing some thinking, and here's a thought.
18:17Why don't I be your sponsor?
18:20You gotta be kidding. You don't know some thought about sex addiction.
18:23Well, cravings are cravings, and all you really need is a friend to call when you start having inappropriate thoughts.
18:29And I can be that friend.
18:31Well, there's more to it than that.
18:32Claude rescued me from some pretty nasty scenes over the years.
18:37Well, if you were in trouble, I could handle it.
18:41How can you be so sure?
18:44Because I can be very strong for those people that I really care about.
18:53How can you have any feelings for me at all? I mean, you've only known me for a few weeks.
18:57Yes, and in that time, I've come to learn that you're good and kind and smart.
19:03And yes, you have a little problem that you need some help with, but I'm willing to be there for
19:08you.
19:10So what's the big deal?
19:13If you saw me at my worst, you might not like me so much.
19:19Peter, let me be your rock. Taking care of people is what I do best.
19:26Drink your milk.
19:40I asked for extra spicy.
19:43I'm pretty sure you said medium.
19:44Are you?
19:45Well, maybe if you'd written it down, you would have spared yourself the walk of Shane back to the kitchen.
19:53Edie, why are you torturing that girl?
19:55That is her.
19:56That is the one that Carl is in love with.
19:58We have been here a million times, and you should see the way that she flirts with him.
20:02And when she comes back here, I'm gonna shove this pitcher in her perky little mug, and when she's-
20:06Let's not make a scene. It's not worth it.
20:08For the sake of argument, let's say that it's someone else.
20:12You know, probably it would be a vulnerable, lonely woman who Carl just took advantage of.
20:18And what if this poor, confused soul begged your forgiveness?
20:23What would you say?
20:28I'd say, too little, too late, bitch. And then I'd kick her.
20:35Oh.
20:36Yeah, but you don't have to worry about that, because I'm positive it's her.
20:39And who else could it be?
20:41Carl's office is all guys, and then the only women he sees are-
20:44are me, Julie, that lesbian that does his taxes, and you.
20:50You know what?
20:53It is her.
20:55Really? Why?
20:57She just spit in your wings.
21:02You got my back?
21:03Uh, sure.
21:07Here you go. Extra spicy.
21:08Ah!
21:14You did that on purpose.
21:17Ah!
21:18Ah!
21:19Ah!
21:20Ah!
21:20Ah!
21:21You!
21:24Ah!
21:26Get off me, you crap!
21:28Meyer!
21:29Four on one!
21:31A little help?
21:32Ah!
21:33Ah!
21:42So, uh, when we leave, what are you gonna miss the most?
21:48I don't know.
21:49Yeah, you do.
21:51You said goodbye to her yet?
21:54No.
21:55Look, man, it's-it's okay if you like her.
21:58You know, I think Danielle really likes you, too.
22:01Really?
22:02Yeah.
22:03She told me she'd be really sad if you left and didn't say goodbye.
22:07You know, I think that she might even want you to give her a little kiss.
22:11But Danielle doesn't even like me in her room.
22:15She gets mad.
22:18Yeah.
22:20I talked to her about that.
22:22She feels really bad.
22:24But you know what?
22:24She told me, if you come in her room again,
22:27she won't get mad.
22:36And, Kayla,
22:38she's gonna act like she doesn't want you to kiss her.
22:42But she does.
22:44She does.
22:45She does.
22:50She does.
22:52She does.
22:52She does.
22:53She does.
22:54She does.
22:54Dale Helm, like all the students at Parsons Christian Academy,
22:58was taught that his future was safely in God's hands.
23:03What he didn't know was that Gabrielle Solis was about to force a fumble.
23:09No of a devil.
23:09You know?
23:11No.
23:12No.
23:12No, no, no.
23:12No.
23:13No!
23:13No, no, no, no, no.
23:15No, no, no, no.
23:23All right, guys.
23:24You all know next week, we're playing the Falcons.
23:28We're gonna buy up those turkeys for dinner!
23:31Cause we're the Huskies!
23:34And who are the Huskies?
23:37Huskies! Huskies! Huskies! Huskies! Huskies!
23:42Huskies! Huskies! Huskies! Huskies! Huskies!
23:46What are you doing? You can't be here.
23:48Let's talk turkey. What is it gonna take for you to give up the baby?
23:51It's not gonna happen, okay?
23:53I gotta get back. I'm the quarterback. It doesn't look right.
23:55Okay, no, no. Wait. What about a car? Or college?
23:59Tuition's a killer these days. I could help you out.
24:02I don't need help. You hear those cheers? Those are for me.
24:05Last game, I threw 246 yards. With stats like that, I can get into the college of my choice.
24:11So why do you want to be a dad? These are your glory days. A baby would ruin your life.
24:16Oh, I know. But Frank said once I get the baby, he's gonna take it off my hands.
24:19That does not have been his.
24:21Libby dumped him. He thinks that if he has the baby and she sees him acting all mature, she'll take
24:24him back.
24:24No, no, no, no. I am not letting that idiot use my baby as a bargaining chip.
24:29Hey, it's out of my hands.
24:31No, it doesn't have to be, okay? Just do the right thing and sign the release form.
24:35Look, I'm really sorry.
24:50Before we adjourn today, let's take a moment to bow our heads.
25:13Hello, everyone. I'm Gabby Solis, class of 94. Woo-hoo!
25:23I just wanted to give God a big shout-out for this amazing season.
25:28The man upstairs has definitely been on your side. You want to know why?
25:33Because you boys live clean. You keep your noses up, you stay out of trouble, and you don't go around
25:39getting strippers pregnant.
25:41And that's a good thing. Because if one of you caused a scandal like that, not only would that guy
25:46get kicked off the team and lose all of his scholarships,
25:49but God would drop your school colors so fast it'd make your head spin. And then the football season would
25:55go to hell.
25:57No, pun intended. So my point is, do the right thing and no one gets hurt.
26:10Signed, sealed, delivered. Lily's ours.
26:15So, what do you think? Are you staying late again, or can I finally have dinner at home with my
26:20wife?
26:20God, I don't know. I'm going to go check with Ed.
26:25Hey, any luck with that die-eming thing?
26:28No, not really. I was online chatting with Fran a while ago, and I asked her what she was wearing,
26:32and she said a yellow blouse.
26:35Okay, that's good. Then what?
26:36Then? Yeah, that's it. I just kind of blocked.
26:40You blocked?
26:41Yeah, I don't know what else to say.
26:42You're an award-winning copywriter, Ed. You get paid to write.
26:44Yeah, jingles for oatmeal, not softcore porn.
26:47For God's sakes, it's not brain surgery. Is she still online?
26:51I think so.
26:55I love the way that blouse clings to your body.
27:05Mm-mm-mm. Nothing funny about those beautiful breasts.
27:13Yeah? What did you want to do to me?
27:18Uh...
27:23Ed, your conference call's ready.
27:25Oh, God. I almost forgot about that.
27:27Okay, I gotta go take this. You keep going, because you're doing great.
27:30No, Fred, I'm not doing this for you.
27:33What?
27:33Mm-mm.
27:38Mm-mm.
27:41Mm-mm.
27:42Mm-mm.
27:47Touch every inch of your body until you're trembling.
27:58Oh, yeah. I'll bite you good.
28:06Oh, yeah. First, I want you to touch yourself.
28:16Oh, yeah.
28:24I'm on my way.
28:36Hello.
28:37Bree. It's Peter.
28:40And I'm in trouble.
28:49I'm in trouble.
28:50I'm in trouble.
28:51Hi. I'm-I'm looking for, um, Peter McMillan.
28:55I'm not sure I know him.
28:56You should ask my wife. She organized the party.
28:59Hey, Judy, get over here and act like a hostess.
29:01Come on in, come on, come on.
29:11Hey there.
29:14Things are just getting started. After you take off your clothes, feel free to jump right in.
29:19No, no, I'm-I'm good. I'm just, I'm here to pick up my friend Peter. He's locked himself in your
29:24bathroom and I'm here to take him home.
29:25Oh, yeah, that guy. We were wondering about him. The bathroom's over there.
29:30Hey. Is that your natural color?
29:33Yes, it is.
29:34Beautiful. I wish mine would do that. This is out of a bottle.
29:40Yes, I'm aware of that.
29:48Peter? Peter Spree, are you in there?
29:53What are you doing here?
29:55I'm a sex addict. What do you think?
29:56You-you can't possibly be turned on by what's going on out there. It's-
30:00Disgusting, isn't it?
30:01Yes. Why would you want to come to a place like this?
30:04I didn't. I wanted you to come.
30:07I can't make you not have feelings for me, but I can show you who I was, what my life
30:11was like.
30:12Well, that's not your life anymore.
30:14But it could be. If I slip again, this is exactly where you could find me, or someplace worse.
30:19Then what would you think of me?
30:21Peter.
30:22Bree. It's dangerous to care about me.
30:25A lot of people have over the years, and they all end up getting hurt.
30:30Rick said he'd always be faithful. George said he'd never hurt me, and as it turned out, they were both
30:35liars.
30:37So as long as you're honest with me, you'd be amazed at what I can put up with.
30:44Now let's go home.
30:59Hey there. Did you have a late night? I hope.
31:02It was horrible. The whole thing blew up in my face.
31:07Why would you tell my wife to bite my nipple off?
31:11I didn't. I didn't. Why would she...
31:14Oh, the honeymoon thing.
31:17Yeah. And it hurt like hell then, too.
31:19It didn't take her long to figure out that I let a stranger seduce her online.
31:24Oh, God.
31:25She was so mad, she locked herself in the bathroom and called a divorce lawyer.
31:29You're getting divorced?
31:30I spent two hours pleading with her through the bathroom door, begging her not to leave me.
31:35And we finally managed to come to terms.
31:38What kind of terms?
31:40I promised her I would fire the person who did it.
31:43You're gonna fire me?
31:44No, of course not. You're too important here. I'm gonna fire Tom.
31:49I told her it was him that sent the IMs.
31:51What?
31:52I told her that he had a problem with boundaries. I'm sorry. I didn't want to do this, but my
31:58marriage was on the line.
31:59You can't make my husband your scapegoat. I won't let you.
32:04I don't have a damn choice. I can't be divorced, Lynette. I can't.
32:12He's under contract. If you just fire him, he'll sue you and I'll back him up. You need cause.
32:19Well, I guess I'll have to find cause.
32:25Shouldn't be too difficult if I look hard enough.
32:42Hey, how's the eye?
32:44Oh, it's still a little red, but I think I got all the hot sauce out.
32:48That's good.
32:49So, um, you know the other day when I said that thing about us being sisters?
32:55Well, when I said it, I really didn't mean it.
32:57Yeah, I kind of figured that.
32:58No, I mean, I really didn't mean it.
33:01But, um, now I do.
33:03Thank you. Thank you for having my back.
33:12So, do I have to worry about you attacking any more waitresses?
33:16Nah, my bar brawn days are over.
33:23Oh, you know, I, I've gotta go. I, I have a meeting.
33:26I'll talk to you later.
33:33Are you Oliver?
33:34You must be Edie. Pleasure to meet you.
33:36Oh, likewise. I hear you're one of the best private detectives in town.
33:40I do what I can.
33:41Well, come on in. Let's talk.
33:43Um, basically, I just want you to trail my ex.
33:47He, uh, left me for another woman.
33:51And I want to nail that hoe to the wall.
34:04Caleb. Hey, come on, buddy. Wake up.
34:07Caleb.
34:09It's time.
34:35Get away from me!
34:38Get away from me!
34:51Danielle.
34:52I want you to pick up the phone and call the police.
34:58No!
35:00What?
35:01Matthew and his mother have been protecting Caleb.
35:03They're in as much trouble as he is.
35:05I don't care.
35:06Mom, please. I love him.
35:09Please.
35:15If I hadn't been in the house, he could have raped her.
35:18Or worse.
35:21He's locked in his room now, so...
35:23Needless to say, the agreement between us is off.
35:26Caleb is dangerous and I want him put away.
35:28If he is not gone by tomorrow, I am calling the police.
35:31He will be. I promise you.
35:33Can I go check on Danielle?
35:34Yes.
35:41Betty. I am serious.
35:43Either you do something, or I will.
35:49Bree, stop worrying.
35:52I understand what needs to happen now.
36:00Danielle?
36:10Did it work?
36:13Perfectly.
36:15You did great.
36:24Um, so I got some rates in some mental hospitals around here,
36:27and, um, there's one called Silvercrest,
36:29which actually seems okay.
36:31Put this hand in the fridge, will ya?
36:32Then you come make it for dinner.
36:35Uh, Mom, I know you don't want to talk about this,
36:37but we have to.
36:38Mrs. Vandekamp is gonna call the police.
36:40Promise myself I would never institutionalize you, brother.
36:43Mom!
36:43How long do you think he'd be before he'd act out?
36:45Have you even hurt somebody?
36:47Couple days?
36:48Week?
36:50Then they throw him in a straitjacket
36:51and drug away what's left of his mind.
36:54Spend the rest of his life at the mercy of strangers.
36:56But if we don't send him to a hospital,
36:58he's gonna end up in prison,
36:59and don't you think that's worse?
37:01Yes, of course I do.
37:03So what the hell are we gonna do?
37:11Phenobarbital?
37:13It's easy.
37:14It's painless.
37:16Just a few extra drops.
37:18He simply falls asleep.
37:24Caleb was meant for a better world than this, Matthew.
37:29It's time to give your brother the peace he deserves.
37:46Who's the pretty girl?
37:49Oh, looks like it's daddy's turn.
37:51Yes.
37:56Mrs. Solis?
37:58Yes?
37:58We have a court order to take the Collins baby into custody.
38:02No, no, no, that's a mistake.
38:04No, we have the paperwork.
38:06The birth father signed away his rights.
38:07It's the birth mother who's protesting.
38:09What?
38:10Until the adoption is legally finalized,
38:13the birth mother can still change her mind,
38:15and she has.
38:27No, no, no, no, no, no!
38:29Gabby, wait!
38:30You?
38:32You don't even want to be a mother!
38:34Look, Frank quit using,
38:36and he got a good job done at the plant.
38:39He's really stepped up.
38:41So?
38:42Well, so we're gonna give the whole family thing a shot.
38:46Well, I'll totally give you all your money back.
38:48I don't want my money back, I want my baby!
38:55Come on, let's go.
38:56Carlos!
38:57No!
38:58Carlos, what's happening?
38:59No, no, no, ma'am.
39:00You don't understand.
39:01You don't understand.
39:02This is our baby!
39:03No!
39:04We've been feeding her,
39:06and we've been bathing her,
39:08and we wake up in the middle of the night,
39:10and we rock her!
39:11Which is crazy,
39:12because if you knew me, I don't do that.
39:13I don't do that.
39:14And my husband,
39:16my husband, he sings to her!
39:18He sings!
39:19So you can't take her away!
39:21It's too late!
39:22We've already fallen in love with her!
39:32Carlos, do something!
39:35No, you can't!
39:36No, you can't!
39:37You can't take her!
39:39You can't take her!
39:41No!
39:43She's our baby!
39:45She's our...
39:48No!
39:50Please!
39:51There is a prayer intended to give strength
39:54to people faced with circumstances
39:56they don't want to accept.
39:59The power of the prayer comes from its insight
40:02into human nature.
40:04We ask God to grant us the serenity
40:07to accept the things we cannot change.
40:09Because so many of us rage against the hand
40:12that life has dealt us.
40:14The courage to change the things we can.
40:18Because so many of us are cowardly
40:21and afraid to stand up for what is right.
40:27And the wisdom to know the difference.
40:31Because so many of us give in to despair
40:35when faced with an impossible choice.
40:40The good news for those who utter these words
40:43is that God will hear you and answer your prayer.
40:49The bad news is that sometimes
40:52the answer is no.
41:16The truth is what is important.
41:18The hopelessness of the fear
41:18which is not afraid of
41:18And the truth is that this is really
41:21That is he can leave!
41:22The trust is not the truth!
41:26It is what it means that the fear
41:27The fear is not asnonciation.
41:27The fear is not only one-sex,
41:29the fear is not only one that one-sex,
41:31the fear is not only one-sex,
