00:08:19,708 --> 00:08:22,000
And I read about these treatments
they're doing in Germany
176
00:08:22,083 --> 00:08:23,875
that apparently are really effective.
177
00:08:23,958 --> 00:08:26,083
And I will stop working…
178
00:08:26,166 --> 00:08:27,083
- Alex.
- And move in.
179
00:08:27,166 --> 00:08:29,708
And I will take care of you
until you get better.
180
00:08:29,791 --> 00:08:30,791
No.
181
00:08:32,125 --> 00:08:35,500
No magic treatments in Germany.
182
00:08:35,583 --> 00:08:40,083
No cure that's ten times worse
than the disease.
183
00:08:41,916 --> 00:08:43,625
It's not going to make a difference.
184
00:08:43,708 --> 00:08:44,916
Not this time.
185
00:08:49,375 --> 00:08:50,375
Come here.
186
00:08:52,875 --> 00:08:58,000
[soft, gentle music playing]
187
00:08:59,583 --> 00:09:01,375
What am I going to do with you?
188
00:09:01,458 --> 00:09:03,375
[Alex sighs softly]
189
00:09:03,458 --> 00:09:05,291
What am I going to do without you?
190
00:09:14,500 --> 00:09:19,166
[music continues]
191
00:09:22,333 --> 00:09:26,041
[melancholy music plays]
192
00:09:42,958 --> 00:09:44,208
[knocking on door]
193
00:09:48,916 --> 00:09:50,041
Hey, sweetie.
194
00:09:51,208 --> 00:09:52,875
Ready to make an appearance?
195
00:10:01,125 --> 00:10:02,166
Gonna be okay?
196
00:10:09,750 --> 00:10:13,375
- [calming piano music playing]
- [subdued chatter]
197
00:10:14,625 --> 00:10:17,125
- Hi, Sam.
- It's good to see you. Really is.
198
00:10:25,875 --> 00:10:28,375
- [Alex] Don't you think it's surreal?
- [Lucas] How do you mean?
199
00:10:28,458 --> 00:10:32,000
All of these people here except
the one person who's supposed to be.
200
00:10:33,250 --> 00:10:36,958
I keep expecting her to walk out of
the kitchen and tell me to stop slouching.
201
00:10:37,958 --> 00:10:39,500
[indistinct conversation]
202
00:10:41,083 --> 00:10:43,083
I didn't know Dad was gonna be here.
203
00:10:45,125 --> 00:10:47,583
[Lucas] They were married for 20 years,
most of them, happy.
204
00:10:47,666 --> 00:10:49,708
- Of course he was gonna be there.
- Whatever.
205
00:10:49,791 --> 00:10:51,083
I just hate when he talks as if
206
00:10:51,166 --> 00:10:52,875
the divorce was
some kind of mutual decision.
207
00:10:52,958 --> 00:10:54,916
Like, bro, he left her.
208
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,250
I hope your mom was clear
about dividing stuff up.
209
00:10:57,333 --> 00:11:00,208
You don't wanna be like the Nelsons.
They don't talk to each other anymore.
210
00:11:00,291 --> 00:11:04,000
Agreed. As long as I get
the Tamayo painting in the front hall.
211
00:11:04,083 --> 00:11:07,583
God, Mom's barely been gone a week,
and all you can talk about is her stuff?
212
00:11:07,666 --> 00:11:09,875
That's easy for you to say.
You're inheriting the company.
213
00:11:09,958 --> 00:11:11,875
You don't know that.
I've barely worked a year.
214
00:11:11,958 --> 00:11:14,333
Why do you think
Catherine spent so much time training you?
215
00:11:14,416 --> 00:11:16,083
God, you make me sound like a pet.
216
00:11:16,166 --> 00:11:17,625
Stop it, both of you.
217
00:11:17,708 --> 00:11:19,375
Alex is doing great at work.
218
00:11:19,458 --> 00:11:21,791
She's entirely ready for what's ahead.
219
00:11:39,916 --> 00:11:43,416
Hello, everyone. Apologies for being late.
220
00:11:43,500 --> 00:11:47,416
I'd just like to say
how truly sorry I am for your loss.
221
00:11:47,500 --> 00:11:49,291
Uh, who are you exactly?
222
00:11:49,375 --> 00:11:51,458
My name is Brad Ackerman.
223
00:11:51,541 --> 00:11:54,500
I worked with your mother
on the final draft of her will.
224
00:11:54,583 --> 00:11:57,666
- Where's old man Sullivan?
- Mr. Sullivan is in his office.
225
00:11:58,250 --> 00:12:00,750
Um, it's Brad, right?
226
00:12:00,833 --> 00:12:02,875
I'm sorry,
but are you even a partner here?
227
00:12:02,958 --> 00:12:05,500
I'm an associate partner.
228
00:12:06,083 --> 00:12:08,375
[hushed] Maybe we should ask
to see his law degree.
229
00:12:08,458 --> 00:12:09,791
You must be Alex.
230
00:12:10,541 --> 00:12:11,583
And let me guess,
231
00:12:11,666 --> 00:12:15,583
Julian, Catherine, Lucas, and Zoe.
232
00:12:15,666 --> 00:12:17,958
Congratulations on
the birth of your daughter, Emma.
233
00:12:18,041 --> 00:12:19,208
Thank you.
234
00:12:20,000 --> 00:12:22,625
Your mother was an amazing woman.
235
00:12:23,750 --> 00:12:27,750
Even when she was sick,
she was so strong and funny,
236
00:12:28,375 --> 00:12:30,541
and, I don't know if this makes any sense,
237
00:12:30,625 --> 00:12:34,583
present in everything
that she said and did.
238
00:12:35,166 --> 00:12:38,958
I'm honored she chose me
to be the executor of her estate.
239
00:12:39,625 --> 00:12:40,791
Shall we begin?
240
00:12:40,875 --> 00:12:42,541
"I, Elizabeth Rose,
241
00:12:42,625 --> 00:12:46,083
a resident of Brooklyn, New York,
and a citizen of the United States,
242
00:12:46,166 --> 00:12:48,250
declare this to be my final will."
243
00:12:48,333 --> 00:12:49,791
[whispers] This is so weird.
244
00:12:49,875 --> 00:12:54,500
"To Julian, I leave
my Loeb edition of Plato's works."
245
00:12:54,583 --> 00:12:59,958
"A gentle reminder that he may not always
be the smartest person in the room."
246
00:13:00,041 --> 00:13:01,208
[chuckles]
247
00:13:01,916 --> 00:13:06,208
"The Tamayo painting, an evocative
reminder of the heritage of our family,
248
00:13:06,291 --> 00:13:07,791
I leave to Zoe."
249
00:13:07,875 --> 00:13:12,041
"She can share it with Lucas,
as long as he never leaves her."
250
00:13:12,125 --> 00:13:13,625
[Zoe giggles softly]
251
00:13:13,708 --> 00:13:14,541
I would never.
252
00:13:16,208 --> 00:13:18,333
Next is your mother's house.
253
00:13:18,416 --> 00:13:21,041
"It is my wish that
neither the house nor its contents
254
00:13:21,125 --> 00:13:23,500
be sold or leased for 12 months."
255
00:13:23,583 --> 00:13:25,583
"My children may inhabit the home
during this time,
256
00:13:25,666 --> 00:13:27,541
but for no longer
than 90 consecutive days."
257
00:13:27,625 --> 00:13:28,958
[Julian] Whoa, sorry to interrupt.
258
00:13:29,041 --> 00:13:32,041
Did our mother explain
why she wanted us to keep the house?
259
00:13:32,125 --> 00:13:34,250
I wish we could keep it forever.
260
00:13:34,333 --> 00:13:37,041
The house is Mom. It's our history.
261
00:13:37,125 --> 00:13:39,541
Yeah, that's sweet, Alex.
Do you know what the taxes are?
262
00:13:40,208 --> 00:13:43,041
Brad, are you sure she understood
how expensive this will be?
263
00:13:43,125 --> 00:13:46,166
In fact, she made provisions
to cover any costs.
264
00:13:47,416 --> 00:13:49,666
- Shall we move on to Rose Cosmetics?
- [music builds]
265
00:13:49,750 --> 00:13:53,416
"My children's shares
of Rose Cosmetics will stay at 20%."
266
00:13:53,500 --> 00:13:58,250
"The remaining shares and title of CEO
will go to my daughter-in-law,
267
00:13:58,333 --> 00:13:59,958
Catherine Williams Rose."
268
00:14:00,041 --> 00:14:01,250
[music stops]
269
00:14:01,333 --> 00:14:02,166
Wait, what?
270
00:14:02,250 --> 00:14:03,541
Your mother's remaining shares
271
00:14:03,625 --> 00:14:06,166
of Rose Cosmetics
will go to your sister-in-law,
272
00:14:06,875 --> 00:14:07,875
Catherine.
273
00:14:11,541 --> 00:14:13,208
[poignant music plays]
274
00:14:13,291 --> 00:14:17,833
Her last directive is that
Catherine appoint a new head of marketing.
275
00:14:18,458 --> 00:14:19,958
But I'm head of marketing.
276
00:14:20,958 --> 00:14:22,666
Not after today.
277
00:14:22,750 --> 00:14:23,875
So I'm fired?
278
00:14:26,416 --> 00:14:28,583
She's firing me from the grave? What…
279
00:14:28,666 --> 00:14:31,583
Aren't there, like,
laws or something against that?
280
00:14:33,875 --> 00:14:36,166
"Finally, my beloved daughter, Alexandra,
281
00:14:36,250 --> 00:14:39,083
is to collect her inheritance
at a later date."
282
00:14:39,750 --> 00:14:44,500
And there is an asterisk here which
I'm meant to explain to you privately.
283
00:14:44,583 --> 00:14:45,458
[Alex] This is insane.
284
00:14:46,125 --> 00:14:48,666
I mean, how long have you actually
been doing wills and dying?
285
00:14:48,750 --> 00:14:52,375
I've been doing estate planning
at the firm for three years now.
286
00:14:52,458 --> 00:14:53,625
Three years. Wow.
287
00:14:53,708 --> 00:14:55,416
You're basically
a regular Thurgood Marshall.
288
00:14:55,500 --> 00:14:57,666
That's nice, thank you. I appreciate that.
289
00:14:57,750 --> 00:15:01,416
- Please don't talk to me like that.
- Or what? You'll take away my inheritance?
290
00:15:01,500 --> 00:15:04,750
I'd like you to consider that
your mother was a very intelligent woman
291
00:15:04,833 --> 00:15:06,875
whose main concern is what's best for you.
292
00:15:06,958 --> 00:15:08,458
- Right, as in firing me.
- Trust her.
293
00:15:08,541 --> 00:15:10,916
- And disinheriting me.
- She did not disinherit you.
294
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:14,791
Her only daughter. And I get nothing.
Not even a piece of furniture!
295
00:15:17,041 --> 00:15:20,375
I know what you're thinking.
You're thinking that this is about money
296
00:15:20,458 --> 00:15:22,041
and jewelry and whatever.
297
00:15:22,125 --> 00:15:23,333
But the thing is,
298
00:15:23,416 --> 00:15:27,416
yesterday, the only thing
that I wanted was her bed.
299
00:15:27,500 --> 00:15:31,083
That's it. I just wanted
her old rickety iron bed
300
00:15:31,166 --> 00:15:33,791
so I could just lay in it and curl up…
301
00:15:35,375 --> 00:15:37,666
and just pretend
that she was still with me.
302
00:15:41,666 --> 00:15:42,833
[Brad sighs]
303
00:15:44,500 --> 00:15:45,458
[exhales]
304
00:15:45,958 --> 00:15:48,750
I know how close you and your mother were.
305
00:15:50,125 --> 00:15:51,875
She told me many times.
306
00:15:52,791 --> 00:15:55,375
She just had
something else in mind for you.
307
00:15:58,041 --> 00:15:58,958
What is this?
308
00:16:01,833 --> 00:16:04,083
She wanted you to open it
when you were alone.
309
00:16:04,916 --> 00:16:06,666
Do you have a DVD player?
310
00:16:06,750 --> 00:16:10,458
Yeah. It's in the closet
next to the VCR and the butter churn.
311
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:14,250
My boyfriend has an Xbox.
312
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:16,458
Yeah, that'll work.
313
00:16:17,041 --> 00:16:19,625
Go home. See what's in the envelope.
314
00:16:19,708 --> 00:16:22,958
Hopefully some of this
will start to make some sense.
315
00:16:23,041 --> 00:16:25,041
[emotional music playing]
316
00:16:26,541 --> 00:16:28,166
My lawyer will be in touch.
317
00:16:30,125 --> 00:16:31,750
I… I am your lawyer.
318
00:16:34,333 --> 00:16:36,333
- [ship horn honks]
- [gulls cry]
319
00:16:55,750 --> 00:16:56,750
Finn?
320
00:17:00,000 --> 00:17:01,000
Hello?
321
00:17:44,458 --> 00:17:45,416
[dings]
322
00:17:49,583 --> 00:17:50,416
[dings]
323
00:17:58,833 --> 00:17:59,833
[Elizabeth] Hey, Bean.
324
00:18:00,333 --> 00:18:01,583
You must be so pissed off.
325
00:18:01,666 --> 00:18:03,791
[scoffs] It's not funny, Mom, and--
326
00:18:03,875 --> 00:18:05,375
It's not funny, I know.
327
00:18:06,208 --> 00:18:08,000
But I'm gonna explain, okay?
328
00:18:08,875 --> 00:18:14,166
Last week, I was getting
my so-called affairs in order.
329
00:18:14,250 --> 00:18:18,333
Oh my God, the crap
that we hold onto for no apparent reason.
330
00:18:18,416 --> 00:18:23,041
But it was actually
this amazing life flashback. You know?
331
00:18:23,125 --> 00:18:25,791
I mean, it was actually a you flashback.
332
00:18:25,875 --> 00:18:28,208
I got to… Look at all this stuff I found.
333
00:18:28,291 --> 00:18:32,416
Look, all your finger paintings,
report cards.
334
00:18:32,500 --> 00:18:37,291
But in the middle of it all,
I found this piece of paper.
335
00:18:39,416 --> 00:18:40,416
A life list.
336
00:18:41,416 --> 00:18:42,708
Your life list.
337
00:18:43,916 --> 00:18:45,375
I love this list.
338
00:18:46,666 --> 00:18:47,708
[sighs]
339
00:18:48,625 --> 00:18:54,375
This list is such a reflection
of who you are.
340
00:18:54,458 --> 00:18:57,000
Who I was. I was 13 when I wrote it.
341
00:18:57,083 --> 00:18:59,791
And I know, obviously, you have changed.
342
00:18:59,875 --> 00:19:01,625
Oh my God,
it's like she's listening to me.
343
00:19:01,708 --> 00:19:04,458
And I think that's my concern,
344
00:19:05,125 --> 00:19:09,916
is that I don't know
that you have replaced this with anything.
345
00:19:11,541 --> 00:19:15,541
I wonder, have you given up
your dreams and your aspirations?
346
00:19:16,375 --> 00:19:17,541
Your goals?
347
00:19:18,041 --> 00:19:20,666
And don't tell me Rose Cosmetics, because
348
00:19:21,666 --> 00:19:23,750
I feel like I gave you this cozy job
349
00:19:23,833 --> 00:19:27,500
that allowed you to run away
from who you really are.
350
00:19:27,583 --> 00:19:31,208
- [scoffs] Thanks a lot.
- So okay, let's look at the list.
351
00:19:32,208 --> 00:19:34,666
"Help people and make a difference."
352
00:19:35,458 --> 00:19:37,833
"Be a great teacher."
353
00:19:39,166 --> 00:19:42,500
Alex, you are a born teacher.
354
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:46,583
Okay, "learn to drive, get a tattoo."
You can skip those, please, dear God.
355
00:19:46,666 --> 00:19:48,375
- [Alex laughs]
- My one request…
356
00:19:49,333 --> 00:19:50,875
"Find true love."
357
00:19:51,541 --> 00:19:54,291
Why do I have a horrible feeling
you've given up on that too?
358
00:19:54,375 --> 00:19:55,666
[whispers] That's not fair.
359
00:19:55,750 --> 00:19:58,208
I want you to know how incredible you are.
360
00:20:00,291 --> 00:20:02,291
I want you to live your best life.
361
00:20:02,958 --> 00:20:05,458
You have to get yourself
out of this hole you're in.
362
00:20:05,541 --> 00:20:06,791
I'm not in a hole.
363
00:20:06,875 --> 00:20:09,541
I'm sorry, that's not up for discussion.
364
00:20:10,250 --> 00:20:15,875
I'm not gonna be around to dig you out,
but I can sure as hell leave you a shovel.
365
00:20:18,333 --> 00:20:20,833
I want you to complete this list, Bean.
366
00:20:23,125 --> 00:20:24,166
Hold on.
367
00:20:25,083 --> 00:20:26,916
Mom, you can't just say that and…
368
00:20:29,333 --> 00:20:33,333
Okay. Every time
you check off something from the list,
369
00:20:33,416 --> 00:20:36,541
Brad is going to give you
one of these DVDs,
370
00:20:36,625 --> 00:20:39,000
which I am going to record.
371
00:20:39,083 --> 00:20:44,291
And once the list is completely finished,
you will get this envelope.
372
00:20:45,625 --> 00:20:46,791
But the clock is ticking.
373
00:20:47,500 --> 00:20:52,166
The list has to be finished by New Year's.
Otherwise, no envelope.
374
00:20:52,250 --> 00:20:54,041
Oh my God, I can't believe this.
375
00:20:55,958 --> 00:20:57,916
I'm not screwing around, Bean.
376
00:20:58,875 --> 00:21:00,125
This is serious business.
377
00:21:02,250 --> 00:21:03,500
This is your life.
378
00:21:05,208 --> 00:21:06,208
And I love you.
379
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:09,458
See you on the next DVD.
380
00:21:18,250 --> 00:21:19,166
[sighs]
381
00:21:21,291 --> 00:21:22,875
[Megan] This is crazy.
382
00:21:22,958 --> 00:21:24,708
"Go all out in a mosh pit."
383
00:21:24,791 --> 00:21:27,125
- "Play one-on-one with a New York Knick."
- [Zoe laughs]
384
00:21:27,208 --> 00:21:29,541
"Do stand-up comedy."
Walk me through that.
385
00:21:29,625 --> 00:21:34,625
Lucas and I once swore that we would do
open mic night at the Comedy Cellar.
386
00:21:34,708 --> 00:21:36,500
And… and I still have the jokes I wrote.
387
00:21:36,583 --> 00:21:38,833
- I gonna need to read those.
- "Make peace with Dad."
388
00:21:38,916 --> 00:21:41,375
"Be a great teacher." You can do these.
389
00:21:41,458 --> 00:21:42,875
- Mm-hmm.
- You should do these.
390
00:21:42,958 --> 00:21:45,500
Why? So I can inherit some money?
391
00:21:45,583 --> 00:21:47,500
- Yeah.
- No, it's just gross.
392
00:21:48,416 --> 00:21:51,583
Besides, I swore that I would never
step foot into a classroom ever again.
393
00:21:51,666 --> 00:21:54,500
Oh my God, who cares?
Temp for a couple of weeks.
394
00:21:54,583 --> 00:21:58,333
Roll out one of those rickety TVs,
pop on Land Before Time, and then voilà.
395
00:21:58,416 --> 00:22:00,375
Or maybe you enjoy teaching again.
396
00:22:00,458 --> 00:22:02,041
Isn't that the idea here?
397
00:22:02,125 --> 00:22:03,333
Not my idea.
398
00:22:03,416 --> 00:22:06,125
Alex. I've known you for a long time.
399
00:22:06,208 --> 00:22:09,250
You'd never enjoy running that company,
no matter what you tell yourself.
400
00:22:10,333 --> 00:22:12,375
Love when you guys get real.
401
00:22:12,458 --> 00:22:14,291
Hmm, "Find true love."
402
00:22:14,833 --> 00:22:15,791
You love Finn, right?
403
00:22:15,875 --> 00:22:17,375
He's so sweet, so fun.
404
00:22:18,125 --> 00:22:19,708
Apparently has a ginormous willy.
405
00:22:19,791 --> 00:22:23,750
There's been three new iPhones
since you've been together.
406
00:22:23,833 --> 00:22:26,416
You should know by now
if you love the guy.
407
00:22:26,500 --> 00:22:30,208
Yeah, but living together was just
supposed to be like a temporary thing,
408
00:22:30,291 --> 00:22:34,541
and then Mom got sick, and it just seemed,
you know, easier not to find my own place.
409
00:22:34,625 --> 00:22:36,833
Which is exactly what she meant.
410
00:22:36,916 --> 00:22:38,625
You're not dealing with shit.
411
00:22:38,708 --> 00:22:40,625
Like not telling Finn about the list?
412
00:22:43,000 --> 00:22:45,541
Do you remember when Lucas and I broke up
before we got engaged?
413
00:22:45,625 --> 00:22:48,708
The whole world remembers.
Didn't Anderson Cooper do a special?
414
00:22:48,791 --> 00:22:49,916
Hilarious.
415
00:22:50,750 --> 00:22:54,916
I asked your mom for advice,
and she told me about her true love test.
416
00:22:55,458 --> 00:22:56,500
Remember that?
417
00:22:57,166 --> 00:22:58,125
Vaguely.
418
00:22:58,791 --> 00:23:01,291
There's four questions
you're supposed to ask yourself?
419
00:23:01,791 --> 00:23:03,458
Or is that Passover?
420
00:23:03,541 --> 00:23:05,333
Yes, four questions.
421
00:23:07,250 --> 00:23:11,083
One, can you tell him
everything in your heart?
422
00:23:12,291 --> 00:23:15,000
Two, is he kind?
423
00:23:16,500 --> 00:23:20,875
Three, does he help you
become the best version of yourself?
424
00:23:21,791 --> 00:23:22,666
Meaning?
425
00:23:22,750 --> 00:23:26,625
Alex in full flight with Finn.
426
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:33,000
Four, can you imagine him
as the father of your children?
427
00:23:35,875 --> 00:23:36,875
[thoughtful music playing]
428
00:23:36,958 --> 00:23:39,166
Elizabeth said to ask myself
those questions,
429
00:23:39,250 --> 00:23:41,833
and if Lucas passed, I was on my way.
430
00:23:43,625 --> 00:23:45,833
This is totally crazy. I know.
431
00:23:47,125 --> 00:23:48,416
But I trust your mom.
432
00:23:50,625 --> 00:23:52,375
Besides, what have you got to lose?
433
00:23:57,791 --> 00:23:58,875
[Alex] Is Finn kind?
434
00:23:59,541 --> 00:24:00,541
Absolutely.
435
00:24:01,625 --> 00:24:04,541
Does he help me
become the best version of myself?
436
00:24:10,291 --> 00:24:12,708
Can I tell him everything in my heart?
437
00:24:14,041 --> 00:24:15,541
I can barely tell myself.
438
00:24:18,458 --> 00:24:21,458
Can I imagine him being
the father of our children?
439
00:24:25,958 --> 00:24:27,583
- [zombie moaning]
- [person screaming]
440
00:24:27,666 --> 00:24:29,291
What the hell are you doing?
441
00:24:29,375 --> 00:24:31,208
- Oh, hey, babe.
- Hi.
442
00:24:31,291 --> 00:24:32,541
I'm just, uh… [coughs]
443
00:24:32,625 --> 00:24:35,000
…doing the stoner test of my game.
444
00:24:35,083 --> 00:24:36,083
The what?
445
00:24:36,583 --> 00:24:37,750
The stoner test?
446
00:24:37,833 --> 00:24:40,708
Kids like to play video games stoned,
447
00:24:40,791 --> 00:24:43,833
so you have to make sure
it's still easy enough while you're high,
448
00:24:43,916 --> 00:24:46,958
but still super challenging
when you're not high.
449
00:24:47,041 --> 00:24:48,333
Know what I mean?
450
00:24:49,625 --> 00:24:51,666
I need to talk to you about something.
451
00:24:51,750 --> 00:24:52,708
Like, now?
452
00:24:53,833 --> 00:24:54,791
Yeah.
453
00:24:58,000 --> 00:25:01,041
You know, as a life motivator,
this is kind of genius.
454
00:25:01,125 --> 00:25:03,875
I think you should totally go for it.
I mean, it's your inheritance.
455
00:25:03,958 --> 00:25:04,958
- Really?
- Yeah.
456
00:25:05,041 --> 00:25:08,166
Think about how much freedom
it would give you. Both of us, actually.
457
00:25:08,250 --> 00:25:10,541
I mean, I could finish
designing American Zombie,
458
00:25:10,625 --> 00:25:12,541
you'd run the company instead of teaching.
459
00:25:12,625 --> 00:25:13,583
What company?
460
00:25:13,666 --> 00:25:15,625
The gaming company
I'm always talking about.
461
00:25:15,708 --> 00:25:19,125
You'd be like the… the brander
or whatever, and we'd hang 24-7.
462
00:25:19,208 --> 00:25:20,791
Wait, is that how you see me?
463
00:25:20,875 --> 00:25:23,875
Working for you
at your non-existent gaming company?
464
00:25:23,958 --> 00:25:25,958
No, it's our company.
465
00:25:26,041 --> 00:25:28,500
Come on, it'd be fun
working together again.
466
00:25:28,583 --> 00:25:30,875
Remember when
we used to have fun before your whole
467
00:25:30,958 --> 00:25:32,083
[hushed] death fixation?
468
00:25:32,166 --> 00:25:33,541
Finn, my mother just died.
469
00:25:33,625 --> 00:25:38,458
I know, but I think you should try
having fun again, because fun is so… so…
470
00:25:38,541 --> 00:25:39,791
- So fun?
- Yeah.
471
00:25:39,875 --> 00:25:43,875
Fun's fun. That's actually… See,
that's a great slogan for the company.
472
00:25:43,958 --> 00:25:46,833
And fun's way more fun
with some scratch in your pocket.
473
00:25:46,916 --> 00:25:50,125
Like, say we want to have kids one day.
How are we supposed to afford that?
474
00:25:50,208 --> 00:25:52,375
I'm sorry, now you want to have kids?
475
00:25:52,458 --> 00:25:54,416
Not really, but I know you will.
476
00:25:54,500 --> 00:25:56,625
So what else do we have to do?
477
00:25:56,708 --> 00:25:57,875
[poignant music playing]
478
00:25:57,958 --> 00:25:59,958
Mosh pit? Cool.
479
00:26:00,041 --> 00:26:01,625
Get tattoos?
480
00:26:01,708 --> 00:26:03,125
Why not matching?
481
00:26:05,500 --> 00:26:06,500
Find true love?
482
00:26:07,833 --> 00:26:12,000
Baby, I want to make true love to you
right now on the Crate and Barrel.
483
00:26:13,625 --> 00:26:14,500
Mm-mm.
484
00:26:14,583 --> 00:26:17,416
[thunder rumbles]
485
00:26:17,500 --> 00:26:20,708
Alex, come on!
You're totally overreacting!
486
00:26:20,791 --> 00:26:22,625
Come up and let's talk about this!
487
00:26:22,708 --> 00:26:26,250
You don't have to work
at the video game company. I was joking!
488
00:26:26,750 --> 00:26:27,916
It was a joke!
489
00:26:28,666 --> 00:26:31,166
It was a funny joke.
490
00:26:44,500 --> 00:26:45,833
I hope you're happy.
491
00:26:58,791 --> 00:27:00,458
- [traffic noises]
- No thanks.
492
00:27:04,291 --> 00:27:05,750
[Brad] Your mother would be so happy.
493
00:27:05,833 --> 00:27:09,166
Yeah, well, like Zoe said,
what have I got to lose?
494
00:27:09,250 --> 00:27:13,666
I'm single, unemployed,
and I like crossing things off of lists.
495
00:27:15,291 --> 00:27:18,875
Plus, it's the only way
that I get to see my mom's DVDs, right?
496
00:27:18,958 --> 00:27:23,166
Yes, there's another one waiting for you
every time you do an item on the list.
497
00:27:23,250 --> 00:27:25,083
- Can I ask you something?
- Yep.
498
00:27:25,166 --> 00:27:26,583
DVDs? Seriously?
499
00:27:26,666 --> 00:27:31,583
Your mother wanted you to have something
tangible, you know, that you could keep.
500
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:35,583
Is that your girlfriend?
501
00:27:35,666 --> 00:27:37,625
Nina. She lives in Chicago.
502
00:27:37,708 --> 00:27:38,708
- May I?
- Yeah.
503
00:27:41,333 --> 00:27:42,166
Wow.
504
00:27:42,250 --> 00:27:46,250
- She's, like, really beautiful.
- You say that like it's a big surprise.
505
00:27:46,333 --> 00:27:53,291
Well, she has amazing cheekbones and
what appears to be a perfect body. And…
506
00:27:54,333 --> 00:27:56,166
And you have lunch on your tie.
507
00:27:56,750 --> 00:27:57,583
That's funny.
508
00:27:57,666 --> 00:28:00,333
You should let me know
when you do the stand-up.
509
00:28:00,416 --> 00:28:01,750
I will put Nina back.
510
00:28:01,833 --> 00:28:04,958
Is this what it's going to be like
with us the whole time?
511
00:28:05,041 --> 00:28:07,875
I'm just doing what your mom asked me to.
512
00:28:07,958 --> 00:28:08,791
That's it.
513
00:28:09,750 --> 00:28:10,625
I'm sorry.
514
00:28:12,833 --> 00:28:14,000
And in the meantime…
515
00:28:15,833 --> 00:28:17,750
How hard can it be to read a book?

Same. In high school,
and then in college too.

Then the other night I was on TikTok,

self-loathing, and I decided to try again.

and I got into the rhythm of it,

and now I… I can't put it down.

00:37:08,083 --> 00:37:09,083
Good luck.
687
00:37:12,666 --> 00:37:13,583
[exhales]
688
00:37:22,708 --> 00:37:25,541
[soft, hopeful music playing]
689
00:37:27,458 --> 00:37:29,375
[class bell rings]
690
00:37:29,458 --> 00:37:30,625
[books fall]
691
00:37:33,083 --> 00:37:34,416
[voices approaching]
692
00:37:39,166 --> 00:37:40,375
Good morning.
693
00:37:41,458 --> 00:37:42,500
I'm Miss Rose.
694
00:37:43,416 --> 00:37:47,083
Hey, guys, can we just please
quiet down so we can get started?
695
00:37:47,166 --> 00:37:48,333
- [boy] Whoa!
- Aaron!
696
00:37:48,916 --> 00:37:51,125
Aaron, come on. Give me my sweater.
697
00:37:51,208 --> 00:37:53,916
- Can you please give her the sweater?
- It's not even funny.
698
00:37:54,000 --> 00:37:56,208
Aaron, come on, man.
Pink's not even your color.
699
00:37:56,291 --> 00:37:58,291
[students laugh]
700
00:38:00,500 --> 00:38:02,000
- Thank you, Your Majesty.
- Thanks.
701
00:38:02,083 --> 00:38:05,583
Some people think
Hamlet is a play about indecision.
702
00:38:05,666 --> 00:38:10,166
You know, the feeling when
you can't decide between Edward and Jacob,
703
00:38:10,250 --> 00:38:12,916
or whoever the hot vampires are
these days.
704
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:15,833
Miss Rose,
you gotta update your references.
705
00:38:15,916 --> 00:38:17,875
- [students laugh]
- [Alex sighs]
706
00:38:17,958 --> 00:38:20,333
[Alex] So I want everyone
to write about a time
707
00:38:20,416 --> 00:38:23,333
when they had
something really important to do.
708
00:38:23,416 --> 00:38:25,250
But like Hamlet,
709
00:38:25,333 --> 00:38:27,500
you couldn't quite
find a way to take action.
710
00:38:27,583 --> 00:38:28,833
You have 30 minutes.
711
00:38:28,916 --> 00:38:32,625
[pages rifling]
712
00:38:42,291 --> 00:38:44,166
Wow, that's really beautiful.
713
00:38:44,250 --> 00:38:45,250
Thank you.
714
00:38:46,625 --> 00:38:49,708
But it's not the assignment we're doing,
is it, Ezra?
715
00:38:50,708 --> 00:38:51,708
Whatever.
716
00:38:53,166 --> 00:38:55,750
You know, that's not a bad word
for thinking about Hamlet.
717
00:38:56,541 --> 00:38:59,416
- Why not use it as a starting point?
- Maybe 'cause I don't care.
718
00:39:00,291 --> 00:39:02,916
Maybe because "to be or not to be"
is a stupid question.
719
00:39:03,000 --> 00:39:04,666
Hmm. Maybe.
720
00:39:06,375 --> 00:39:08,291
Or maybe it's the most important question.
721
00:39:08,375 --> 00:39:09,666
[Ezra sighs]
722
00:39:09,750 --> 00:39:13,250
And hey, if you don't agree with me,
then maybe you can write about that.
723
00:39:14,166 --> 00:39:17,333
In the meantime, I will take a deeper
dive into your beautiful art.
724
00:39:17,416 --> 00:39:18,583
Hey, give that back!
725
00:39:18,666 --> 00:39:20,708
Absolutely, the second you're done.
726
00:39:21,375 --> 00:39:22,750
Ah! Ow!
727
00:39:22,833 --> 00:39:23,875
[students exclaiming]
728
00:39:23,958 --> 00:39:26,750
- Ezra, what do you think you're doing?
- Taking action.
729
00:39:26,833 --> 00:39:29,083
[students exclaim, laugh]
730
00:39:29,166 --> 00:39:30,000
Oh my God.
731
00:39:30,625 --> 00:39:33,041
He wouldn't do the assignment,
and then he gave me the finger.
732
00:39:33,125 --> 00:39:35,041
Only after you took away
his prized possession.
733
00:39:35,125 --> 00:39:38,125
- Right, but I didn't know that.
- It was in the folder I asked you to read.
734
00:39:38,208 --> 00:39:39,666
[Alex] Ten minutes before class.
735
00:39:39,750 --> 00:39:42,875
Alex, these children
are in a very vulnerable place.
736
00:39:42,958 --> 00:39:46,208
Before anything else, you have to
understand that if this is gonna work.
737
00:39:46,291 --> 00:39:49,833
Ms. Howard, I can teach these kids. I want
to teach them. Please don't fire me.
738
00:39:49,916 --> 00:39:50,916
[man] Who's getting fired?
739
00:39:51,000 --> 00:39:52,750
Nobody. Yet.
740
00:39:52,833 --> 00:39:55,958
This is Alex Rose, the teacher
recommended by Brad Ackerman.
741
00:39:56,041 --> 00:39:58,791
And it's her first day,
and it's not going particularly well.
742
00:39:58,875 --> 00:40:02,000
Well, I remember your first day, Carol.
Actually, I remember the whole week.
743
00:40:02,083 --> 00:40:02,916
[Carol] Very funny.
744
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:05,541
Maybe you can help Alex
get the hang of how things work?
745
00:40:05,625 --> 00:40:07,250
[man] Yeah, I'd be delighted.
746
00:40:07,333 --> 00:40:08,583
Girl with Moby Dick.
747
00:40:10,333 --> 00:40:12,833
That did not come out right.
748
00:40:13,875 --> 00:40:16,583
Ezra's mom died last year,
and he and his aunt are here
749
00:40:16,666 --> 00:40:19,750
while she sorts out
a complicated family situation.
750
00:40:19,833 --> 00:40:21,416
My mother died recently.
751
00:40:21,500 --> 00:40:22,458
I'm so sorry.
752
00:40:22,958 --> 00:40:24,916
Thank you. Uh, but I'm thinking
753
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:27,291
maybe it's something
I could connect with him about.
754
00:40:27,375 --> 00:40:29,458
Yeah, it's not a bad idea. It's…
755
00:40:29,541 --> 00:40:32,625
I'd just wait a little bit
before trying it out.
756
00:40:33,375 --> 00:40:35,416
- But I--
- Kids like Ezra are a bit like cats.
757
00:40:36,000 --> 00:40:38,708
- Like cats?
- You have to wait for them to come to you.
758
00:40:38,791 --> 00:40:40,666
Even when everything in your body
759
00:40:40,750 --> 00:40:43,833
is screaming out
to scratch them behind their ears.
760
00:40:43,916 --> 00:40:45,708
- Patience--
- …is a virtue.
761
00:40:45,791 --> 00:40:47,000
- Right.
- Yeah, the one that
762
00:40:47,083 --> 00:40:48,875
I'm still getting acquainted with.
763
00:40:49,791 --> 00:40:52,708
- [he laughs uncomfortably]
- Thank you, Dr. Taylor.
764
00:40:52,791 --> 00:40:54,250
Anytime, Miss Rose.
765
00:40:54,333 --> 00:40:55,458
Alex.
766
00:40:55,541 --> 00:40:56,541
Garrett.
767
00:40:58,250 --> 00:40:59,958
Should we do the rest of these files?
768
00:41:00,041 --> 00:41:00,875
Sure.
769
00:41:00,958 --> 00:41:03,625
Yeah. Oh shit, I mean, I-I can't.
770
00:41:03,708 --> 00:41:08,083
I… I thought we'd be done at six,
and I have a dinner date to get…
771
00:41:08,166 --> 00:41:10,875
With my dad.
I have dinner with… with my dad.
772
00:41:10,958 --> 00:41:13,333
But can we maybe try again?
773
00:41:13,416 --> 00:41:16,000
Yeah, I'm here Mondays and Thursdays.
774
00:41:16,583 --> 00:41:19,333
Or you can call me anytime.
775
00:41:21,375 --> 00:41:22,375
[Alex] Hey, Dad!
776
00:41:23,583 --> 00:41:24,791
Hey.
777
00:41:24,875 --> 00:41:27,000
Sorry, there was a problem on the train.
778
00:41:27,083 --> 00:41:30,041
Well, always leave a little extra time,
then there won't be--
779
00:41:30,125 --> 00:41:31,583
…be any problems, I know.
780
00:41:32,208 --> 00:41:34,833
But a life without problems
would be kind of boring, wouldn't it?
781
00:41:34,916 --> 00:41:37,791
[laughs] Yeah.
I'll take that under consideration.
782
00:41:37,875 --> 00:41:39,833
Come on. How are you doing?
783
00:41:40,375 --> 00:41:41,250
[Alex] Good.
784
00:41:41,333 --> 00:41:44,833
A women's shelter. That's… different.
785
00:41:44,916 --> 00:41:48,000
But good. Good.
I'm happy you're teaching again.
786
00:41:48,083 --> 00:41:50,625
Thanks. Now if I could just manage
not getting fired.
787
00:41:50,708 --> 00:41:53,083
- Well, don't do that, Alex. Come on.
- What did I do?
788
00:41:53,166 --> 00:41:56,416
That self-deprecating. It's not funny
or charming. You're an adult now.
789
00:41:56,500 --> 00:41:57,833
Did you ever think it was funny?
790
00:41:57,916 --> 00:41:59,250
- Not really.
- Yeah.
791
00:41:59,333 --> 00:42:03,458
But as your mother used to say,
my sense of humor's a little… Hm.
792
00:42:05,083 --> 00:42:07,500
You know, she really wanted us
to get along better.
793
00:42:08,166 --> 00:42:09,916
Not be so angry with each other.
794
00:42:10,000 --> 00:42:12,625
I'm all for it.
And… and I'm not angry with you.
795
00:42:12,708 --> 00:42:15,250
Okay, sometimes a little frustrated.
796
00:42:15,333 --> 00:42:17,958
Thing is, Dad, I'm really trying
to make this new path for myself,
797
00:42:18,041 --> 00:42:22,375
and I'd just like to feel that
you could, you know, support me.
798
00:42:22,458 --> 00:42:26,291
Lucas told me about the will.
And of course, anything that you need.
799
00:42:26,375 --> 00:42:28,458
No, not money.
800
00:42:28,541 --> 00:42:31,458
Emotional support, Dad. Jesus.
801
00:42:34,708 --> 00:42:35,750
What?
802
00:42:36,708 --> 00:42:40,041
- It seems you're the angry one, not me.
- I'm not angry.
803
00:42:40,125 --> 00:42:41,625
Okay, fine, maybe a little.
804
00:42:41,708 --> 00:42:43,041
About what?
805
00:42:45,583 --> 00:42:48,375
At some basic level,
I always feel like I'm letting you down.
806
00:42:50,583 --> 00:42:52,875
Do you remember when I told you
I was gonna quit teaching?
807
00:42:52,958 --> 00:42:53,791
Yeah.
808
00:42:53,875 --> 00:42:56,583
You literally told me
that you weren't surprised.
809
00:42:56,666 --> 00:42:57,500
- No.
- Yeah.
810
00:42:57,583 --> 00:42:59,500
No, I said I was disappointed.
811
00:42:59,583 --> 00:43:01,125
Look, you had a few bumps along the way,
812
00:43:01,208 --> 00:43:03,958
and you gave up on a career
that you cared deeply about.
813
00:43:04,541 --> 00:43:06,750
Like, what was I to do,
lie and give you a hug?
814
00:43:07,500 --> 00:43:10,041
Come on, no disrespect,
but your mother had that covered.
815
00:43:10,125 --> 00:43:12,833
Right, 'cause who in their right mind
would hug their kid
816
00:43:12,916 --> 00:43:15,291
after they've just been unfairly fired?
817
00:43:15,375 --> 00:43:17,166
[scoffs] Also, Mom never lied to me.
818
00:43:17,250 --> 00:43:18,416
Oh, come on!
819
00:43:18,500 --> 00:43:20,875
Whatever, this was her idea
of working things out.
820
00:43:20,958 --> 00:43:23,458
- You think your mom was so damn perfect.
- She was pretty awesome.
821
00:43:23,541 --> 00:43:25,291
Yeah, God forbid anyone should say a word
822
00:43:25,375 --> 00:43:28,333
that would knock her off her majestic
pedestal, but I promise you, Alex,
823
00:43:28,416 --> 00:43:30,791
she was not perfect,
and she was not a saint.
824
00:43:30,875 --> 00:43:34,041
Oh really? What?
What did she do that was so terrible?
825
00:43:34,125 --> 00:43:36,375
What, she let the dog eat
your Eddie Bauer slippers?
826
00:43:36,458 --> 00:43:38,750
- That's not funny.
- Didn't pay her library fines?
827
00:43:38,833 --> 00:43:42,166
Oh, she cheated on her taxes.
No, wait, cheated on you.
828
00:43:46,208 --> 00:43:47,583
Dad?
829
00:43:47,666 --> 00:43:50,000
Excuse me, can I get the check, please?
830
00:43:50,625 --> 00:43:51,458
Dad.
831
00:43:55,333 --> 00:43:57,875
She cheated on you,
that's what you're saying, isn't it?
832
00:43:58,375 --> 00:44:01,333
Dad, you can't just drop a bomb
like that and walk away.
833
00:44:01,916 --> 00:44:04,458
I was 15 when you got divorced,
is that when it happened?
834
00:44:04,541 --> 00:44:06,375
Why are you running away from me? Stop!
835
00:44:08,083 --> 00:44:10,083
Things happen in a marriage, Alex.
836
00:44:10,791 --> 00:44:14,708
But we got through it, and we managed
to have some pretty good years together,
837
00:44:14,791 --> 00:44:16,791
so can we please just leave it at that?
838
00:44:16,875 --> 00:44:17,833
No, we can't.
839
00:44:20,416 --> 00:44:21,750
Please, I need to know.
840
00:44:25,291 --> 00:44:26,791
It was before you were born.
841
00:44:28,625 --> 00:44:31,000
It wasn't just a fling. Something…
842
00:44:36,541 --> 00:44:38,083
Something else happened.
843
00:44:39,750 --> 00:44:40,666
Oh.
844
00:44:42,291 --> 00:44:44,500
Why don't we go for a walk, sweetheart?
845
00:44:44,583 --> 00:44:46,583
[emotional music playing]
846
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:05,375
Are you kidding me?
847
00:45:07,875 --> 00:45:09,500
Let me get this straight.
848
00:45:09,583 --> 00:45:11,333
You're saying that Dad…
849
00:45:11,416 --> 00:45:12,833
…is not actually my father.
850
00:45:15,708 --> 00:45:19,875
Mom had an affair
with a musician named Johnny Alvarez.
851
00:45:20,708 --> 00:45:23,625
Apparently he played at a club
they'd go to in the Village.
852
00:45:24,458 --> 00:45:26,416
Um, that's just…
853
00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:28,708
I don't know what to say.
854
00:45:29,958 --> 00:45:31,333
Johnny Alvarez?
855
00:45:32,375 --> 00:45:33,625
Sounds like Mom had a type.
856
00:45:33,708 --> 00:45:34,625
Lucas.
857
00:45:34,708 --> 00:45:37,208
She ended the relationship
when she got pregnant,
858
00:45:37,291 --> 00:45:43,583
and she and Dad made this agreement
not to tell me. Or any of us.
859
00:45:43,666 --> 00:45:46,291
Like that was the way
that they could save their marriage.
860
00:45:46,833 --> 00:45:50,541
Alex, I can't imagine how difficult
it must be to make sense of this.
861
00:45:50,625 --> 00:45:53,625
I'm somewhere between numb
and completely furious.
862
00:45:55,000 --> 00:45:56,041
Like, who am I?
863
00:45:57,333 --> 00:46:00,875
And why didn't anyone,
namely Mom, bother to tell me?
864
00:46:02,166 --> 00:46:04,000
It definitely explains
a lot about me and Dad.
865
00:46:04,083 --> 00:46:06,083
Why he never could love me
the same as you guys.
866
00:46:06,166 --> 00:46:09,333
- No.
- Hey, that is not true, okay?
867
00:46:09,416 --> 00:46:11,791
And he's still your father.
He's the man who raised you.
868
00:46:12,916 --> 00:46:13,833
I don't know.
869
00:46:15,833 --> 00:46:17,166
I think I need to find him.
870
00:46:17,250 --> 00:46:19,000
I'm not sure that's a good idea.
871
00:46:19,083 --> 00:46:20,708
Julian, how can you say that?
872
00:46:20,791 --> 00:46:22,916
Alex should know
who her biological father is.
873
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:25,958
I know, but the company is
a trusted family brand…
874
00:46:26,041 --> 00:46:27,583
- [Lucas sighs]
- …going through… What?
875
00:46:27,666 --> 00:46:31,041
It's going through a big transition
right now, and if the story gets out--
876
00:46:31,125 --> 00:46:32,625
The story? Are you kidding me?
877
00:46:32,708 --> 00:46:38,458
Alex, we are all going to do whatever
we have to do to help you with this.
878
00:46:38,541 --> 00:46:40,000
Okay, that's not what I meant.
879
00:46:40,083 --> 00:46:43,458
- Jesus, why am I always the bad guy?
- Because you're so fucking good at it.
880

[footsteps approaching]
881
00:46:53,333 --> 00:46:55,291
Julian didn't mean that.
882
00:46:56,208 --> 00:46:58,500
He's just been having
a really hard time lately.
883
00:46:58,583 --> 00:46:59,458
With what?
884
00:46:59,541 --> 00:47:01,291
Raising two wonderful children?
885
00:47:02,125 --> 00:47:03,666
Being married to the perfect woman
886
00:47:03,750 --> 00:47:07,125
who took the perfect job
that I was apparently unfit to handle?
887
00:47:07,208 --> 00:47:09,416
A hard time that his mother died.
888
00:47:11,833 --> 00:47:13,958
You're not the only one missing her.
889
00:47:14,666 --> 00:47:16,666
[emotional music playing]
890
00:47:36,291 --> 00:47:37,875
[Alex] I'm here to see Brad Ackerman.
891
00:47:37,958 --> 00:47:38,875
I'm Alex Rose.
892
00:47:38,958 --> 00:47:39,875
Is he expecting you?
893
00:47:40,458 --> 00:47:42,041
- No, but I'm sure if you--
- [Brad] Alex!
894
00:47:42,125 --> 00:47:44,000
- Hey!
- Did we have an appointment?
895
00:47:44,083 --> 00:47:45,958
I-I was just about to go shopping.
896
00:47:46,041 --> 00:47:50,833
Nina's coming into town next week,
and I thought it was time for a new tie.
897
00:47:50,916 --> 00:47:52,875
- Because of what I said?
- Yep.
898
00:47:52,958 --> 00:47:57,416
You know, I always hoped, if only
I could change just one person's life.
899
00:47:57,500 --> 00:47:59,041
[laughing] Why are you here?
900
00:47:59,125 --> 00:48:00,833
Uh, I finished Moby Dick.
901
00:48:00,916 --> 00:48:04,208
Thought I'd pick up my DVD, and, um,
902
00:48:04,291 --> 00:48:06,458
I wanted to ask
for your help with something.
903
00:48:07,250 --> 00:48:09,416
Sure… I think.
904
00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:13,666
[Alex] The thing I keep obsessing about
is why she didn't tell me.
905
00:48:13,750 --> 00:48:15,291
We told each other everything.
906
00:48:15,375 --> 00:48:18,083
Was she afraid or ashamed?
907
00:48:18,666 --> 00:48:20,958
Did she ever give you
a hint about any of it?
908
00:48:21,041 --> 00:48:23,625
No, no, she never said a word.
909
00:48:23,708 --> 00:48:27,000
Honestly, the whole thing
seems really just unlikely.
910
00:48:27,083 --> 00:48:28,916
Maybe it's a part of who she really was,
911
00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:32,791
and it's one of the reasons she sent me
on this crazy "Alex in Wonderland" journey
912
00:48:32,875 --> 00:48:34,583
to find out for myself.
913
00:48:34,666 --> 00:48:36,250
- No, way too boring.
- What?
914
00:48:36,833 --> 00:48:38,500
Make an effort here, Bradley.
915
00:48:41,083 --> 00:48:42,166
So…
916
00:48:43,041 --> 00:48:44,750
Will you help me find Johnny Alvarez?
917
00:48:44,833 --> 00:48:47,541
Yeah, yeah, of course.
We could start by googling him.
918
00:48:47,625 --> 00:48:49,500
Wow, you really do think of everything.
919
00:48:49,583 --> 00:48:52,041
Okay, smarty-pants,
what did you come up with?
920
00:48:52,125 --> 00:48:56,125
A bandleader named Johnny Alvarez,
except he was born in 1918.
921
00:48:56,208 --> 00:48:59,291
Uh, I tried John, Juan, Jonathan…
922
00:48:59,375 --> 00:49:01,375
There's, like, a thousand entries.
923
00:49:03,791 --> 00:49:06,125
Perfect…
for your middle school graduation.
924
00:49:06,791 --> 00:49:09,208
Come on, this is
the amazing Tina we're talking about.
925
00:49:09,291 --> 00:49:11,708
Nina, actually.
926
00:49:11,791 --> 00:49:18,458
Um, there is someone that I use
on divorce cases, but she's not cheap.
927
00:49:18,541 --> 00:49:19,541
[Alex exhales]
928
00:49:19,625 --> 00:49:22,708
- If the money's a problem, I can talk--
- No, it's not the money. It's…
929
00:49:24,416 --> 00:49:27,000
It's like I've fallen down
this weird rabbit hole.
930
00:49:27,583 --> 00:49:30,625
Old family secrets, private detectives,
931
00:49:31,458 --> 00:49:32,875
becoming friends with a lawyer.
932
00:49:33,541 --> 00:49:35,000
Nothing makes sense anymore.
933
00:49:35,083 --> 00:49:36,583
So we're friends now?
934
00:49:45,166 --> 00:49:46,000
Looks good.
935
00:49:46,083 --> 00:49:47,250
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
936
00:49:47,333 --> 00:49:49,416
Now all you need is a suit to go with it.
937
00:49:50,000 --> 00:49:51,041
I was actually just--
938
00:49:51,125 --> 00:49:52,541
Shh.
939
00:49:52,625 --> 00:49:54,041
- Get a new suit.
- Yeah.
940
00:49:59,208 --> 00:50:00,250
[Elizabeth] Hiya, Bean.

I got for the camera?

Hmm. Needs a little love.
945
00:50:13,250 --> 00:50:18,166
Well, I'll have to get that
taken care of before I…
946
00:50:23,375 --> 00:50:27,833
Before I… Why is it so hard to say "die"?
947
00:50:27,916 --> 00:50:29,500
[laughs]
948
00:50:30,333 --> 00:50:31,291
I'm gonna die.
949
00:50:33,333 --> 00:50:34,666
How does that line go?
950
00:50:35,958 --> 00:50:41,250
"What dreams may come
when we shuffle off the mortal coil must…"
951
00:50:41,750 --> 00:50:43,791
- "…must give us pause."
- "…give us pause."
952
00:50:43,875 --> 00:50:47,666
"…must give us pause."
Ah, that's got a nice ring to it.
953
00:50:49,166 --> 00:50:52,666
Like I could stick around,
but in some cool dream state
954
00:50:52,750 --> 00:50:54,625
without pain or suffering.
955
00:50:58,041 --> 00:51:00,791
Speaking of suffering,
how friggin' long is this book?
956
00:51:01,541 --> 00:51:05,833
I just kept looking for
some sort of inspiring connection
957
00:51:05,916 --> 00:51:08,458
between the book and the list.
958
00:51:09,000 --> 00:51:10,958
But the best I could come up with was,
959
00:51:11,041 --> 00:51:14,416
I'm Ahab, you're my whale,
960
00:51:15,166 --> 00:51:19,208
and I've set you off
on this hopeless quest.
961
00:51:20,083 --> 00:51:21,916
I mean, I got a lot of nerve.
962
00:51:22,000 --> 00:51:23,833
- No, Mom, you have--
- Right?
963
00:51:24,416 --> 00:51:26,458
What am I doing? Playing God?
964
00:51:27,833 --> 00:51:30,625
As if I'm some kind of paragon of…
965
00:51:32,083 --> 00:51:36,708
wisdom and virtue, which I can
assure you, my darling, that I am not.
966
00:51:37,625 --> 00:51:38,916
Yeah, so, um,
967
00:51:40,375 --> 00:51:41,375
Dad told me.
968
00:51:42,000 --> 00:51:44,000
The truth is, I…
969
00:51:45,166 --> 00:51:46,291
I…
970
00:51:51,583 --> 00:51:54,125
Truth is, I woke up this morning,
and I was convinced
971
00:51:54,208 --> 00:51:58,125
that I should release you
from this lunatic mission.
972
00:51:59,583 --> 00:52:01,291
But then I looked at the list again,
973
00:52:01,375 --> 00:52:05,041
and I'm telling you, I know
you were only 13 when you wrote it…
974
00:52:06,458 --> 00:52:07,583
but it is a map

toward your best self.
You know what I mean?

or if you're feeling like a failure,
977
00:52:18,333 --> 00:52:19,208
it's okay.
978

Yeah.

You had a lot of heart,
but maybe not so much discipline.
993
00:53:28,375 --> 00:53:31,833
Hmm. I wanted to play Green Day
and Fiona Apple,
994
00:53:31,916 --> 00:53:34,458
and you made me do scales and Bach.
995
00:53:35,500 --> 00:53:37,625
So why "Clair de Lune"?
996
00:53:39,416 --> 00:53:40,791
It was my mom's favorite.
997
00:53:42,166 --> 00:53:44,125
Your mother was a special lady.

And I was sad to hear about her passing.

I know you don't take on
many students, Ms. Wyman,
1000

but it would have meant so much to her
if she knew I was doing this with you.

All right, three conditions.

- Mm.

00:55:56,041 --> 00:55:56,875
Hey, Miss Rose!
1027
00:56:06,708 --> 00:56:07,708
Yeah.
1028
00:56:07,791 --> 00:56:11,208
[Alex] Okay, so I didn't pretend that Ezra
was a cat, and yes, it totally backfired…
1029
00:56:11,291 --> 00:56:12,291
Yeah, truly.
1030
00:56:12,375 --> 00:56:13,208
You look nice.
1031
00:56:13,291 --> 00:56:16,750
No, no, no, that's fine.
Just say hi to Theo from me. Okay, bye.
1032
00:56:17,333 --> 00:56:18,458
- Hi.
- Sorry.
1033
00:56:18,541 --> 00:56:20,791
- You were saying?
- I didn't pretend Ezra was a cat.
1034
00:56:20,875 --> 00:56:22,041
No, no, after that.
1035
00:56:22,125 --> 00:56:25,416
Oh. Uh, I think I said, you look nice.
1036
00:56:25,500 --> 00:56:27,416
That was it. Thank you. You look--
1037
00:56:27,500 --> 00:56:29,958
Wet, angry, and frustrated.
I need your help.
1038
00:56:30,041 --> 00:56:31,416
You never called me.
1039
00:56:31,500 --> 00:56:32,583
I know, I meant to.
1040
00:56:33,875 --> 00:56:36,166
But then all this messed up
family stuff happened--
1041
00:56:36,250 --> 00:56:37,416
That's a coincidence.
1042
00:56:37,500 --> 00:56:41,250
Messed-up family stuff is my speciality,
and I really would love to help.
1043
00:56:41,333 --> 00:56:46,208
It's just, I'm late for a meeting
and I have this thing later, hence,
1044
00:56:46,291 --> 00:56:47,458
monkey suit.
1045
00:56:49,666 --> 00:56:51,416
Hey, why don't you come with me?
1046
00:56:51,500 --> 00:56:52,583
My date canceled,
1047
00:56:52,666 --> 00:56:56,000
and we can talk about Ezra
or anything you want to talk about.
1048
00:56:56,083 --> 00:56:57,833
Oh, I don't know.
1049
00:56:57,916 --> 00:57:00,833
I'm not really the kind of person
you want to take to a fancy event.
1050
00:57:00,916 --> 00:57:01,875
Says who?
1051
00:57:02,416 --> 00:57:05,000
[party music playing]
1052
00:57:05,083 --> 00:57:07,416
- [Alex] This is fantastic.
- [Garrett] Pretty great, isn't it?
1053
00:57:08,750 --> 00:57:10,375
Holy shit, is that Patrick Ewing?
1054
00:57:10,458 --> 00:57:12,291
[Garrett] Wait, you're into basketball?
1055
00:57:12,375 --> 00:57:15,083
I was the point guard
at the Ditmas Park Middle School team.
1056
00:57:15,166 --> 00:57:18,041
I loved the Knicks,
and I need to talk to him.
1057
00:57:20,041 --> 00:57:21,458
It's kind of a long story.
1058
00:57:21,958 --> 00:57:24,125
Which I will tell you if you're very good.
1059
00:57:24,791 --> 00:57:27,791
Well, if you're very good,
I might just introduce you to him.
1060
00:57:28,583 --> 00:57:29,791
You know him?
1061
00:57:29,875 --> 00:57:32,416
I'm just gonna check my coat.
I'll be right back.
1062
00:57:34,916 --> 00:57:35,750
Patrick Ewing.
1063
00:57:41,125 --> 00:57:43,291
- Yeah. Thank you.
- You're welcome.
1064
00:57:54,916 --> 00:57:56,000
[laughs quietly]
1065
00:57:58,416 --> 00:58:00,208
Aren't you supposed to wear a tux?
1066
00:58:00,291 --> 00:58:02,625
[laughs] Aren't you supposed
to be wearing a fancy gown?
1067
00:58:02,708 --> 00:58:04,791
Oh, don't be so gender normative.
1068
00:58:05,458 --> 00:58:08,791
At least you got yourself a nice tie.
You look damn good, counselor.
1069
00:58:08,875 --> 00:58:10,125
He does, doesn't he?
1070
00:58:10,791 --> 00:58:12,541
- [Nina laughs]
- Alex, this is Nina Keller.
1071
00:58:12,625 --> 00:58:14,666
- Ah!
- Nina, this is my client, Alex Rose.
1072
00:58:14,750 --> 00:58:17,125
It's so nice to meet you, Nina.
I've heard so much about you.
1073
00:58:17,208 --> 00:58:20,416
Yeah, you too. I think
you may be Brad's favorite client.
1074
00:58:20,500 --> 00:58:22,291
Nina just got offered a job
1075
00:58:22,375 --> 00:58:24,416
heading the Mayor's
Sustained Manhattan Initiative.
1076
00:58:24,500 --> 00:58:26,458
- Wow.
- Looks like she's moving back to New York.
1077
00:58:26,541 --> 00:58:29,083
"Just when I thought I was out,
they pulled me back in."
1078
00:58:29,166 --> 00:58:30,750
- [Nina laughs]
- Well, congrats.
1079
00:58:30,833 --> 00:58:33,916
What are you doing here? This is
the last place I'd think to find you.
1080
00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:34,833
She's with me.
1081
00:58:34,916 --> 00:58:35,958
[Alex] Hey.
1082
00:58:36,041 --> 00:58:37,125
Garrett.
1083
00:58:37,208 --> 00:58:38,916
- [Garrett] Nina.
- Dr. Taylor.
1084
00:58:39,000 --> 00:58:40,916
- You know each other.
- [Brad] …know each other.
1085
00:58:41,000 --> 00:58:43,791
That makes perfect sense.
Garrett knows everyone.
1086
00:58:43,875 --> 00:58:45,208
And I thought I was special.
1087
00:58:45,291 --> 00:58:49,791
And you are special. Nina and I had
a disastrous date a long time ago.
1088
00:58:49,875 --> 00:58:52,833
It's impossible to have
two alphas in a relationship.
1089
00:58:52,916 --> 00:58:54,916
Someone always has to be
the beta. [laughs]
1090
00:58:55,000 --> 00:58:56,416
I guess that's where I come in.
1091
00:58:56,500 --> 00:59:01,041
Oh, that's not what I meant.
You have all the alpha a girl needs.
1092
00:59:01,625 --> 00:59:03,500
Oh, did you hear that?
I have all of the alpha…
1093
00:59:03,583 --> 00:59:04,750
[Alex] Cheers to your alpha.
1094
00:59:04,833 --> 00:59:06,500
- [Garrett] To Brad's alpha.
- [Nina] Cheers.
1095
00:59:06,583 --> 00:59:09,291
- [Brad] Wow. That's… Cheers.
- [Alex] I love this so much.
1096
00:59:09,375 --> 00:59:13,458
I will have, uh, the 16-year-old scotch.
Thank you.
1097
00:59:13,541 --> 00:59:14,916
it's quite the turnout we got here.
1098
00:59:15,000 --> 00:59:17,416
Hey, yeah. Yeah, we did good, right?
1099
00:59:17,500 --> 00:59:21,208
Partly thanks to you persuading
the firm to buy, what, three tables?
1100
00:59:21,291 --> 00:59:23,625
Yeah, it was a bit cheaper
than making me partner, so…
1101
00:59:23,708 --> 00:59:25,000
[Garrett laughs]
1102
00:59:26,083 --> 00:59:27,916
So, you and Nina?
1103
00:59:28,000 --> 00:59:30,625
Yeah. So, you and Alex.
1104
00:59:30,708 --> 00:59:32,666
Oh, she was kind enough
to step in last minute.
1105
00:59:32,750 --> 00:59:36,250
[Brad] Yeah, no, that makes sense.
She doesn't seem like your usual type.
1106
00:59:37,416 --> 00:59:38,625
What's my usual type?
1107
00:59:38,708 --> 00:59:42,208
- Oh, I don't know. Someone a little less…
- [Alex] Tips in the rebound for the win!
1108
00:59:42,291 --> 00:59:43,666
And then the crowd goes nuts.
1109
00:59:43,750 --> 00:59:44,958
…whatever that is.
1110
00:59:45,041 --> 00:59:47,791
Whoa! And it was just epic.
1111
00:59:47,875 --> 00:59:51,666
Exactly. The thing
I didn't know I was missing.
1112
00:59:52,958 --> 00:59:55,541
- The best Knick ever!
- [Patrick Ewing laughs]
1113
00:59:55,625 --> 00:59:58,541
You know, I can't believe
you got Patrick Ewing's email.
1114
00:59:58,625 --> 01:00:00,125
[Alex laughs]
1115
01:00:00,208 --> 01:00:02,416
I think he was just trying
to get rid of me.
1116
01:00:02,500 --> 01:00:03,500
No.
1117
01:00:04,666 --> 01:00:06,083
You totally charmed him.
1118
01:00:07,500 --> 01:00:09,166
Like you totally charmed me.
1119
01:00:09,250 --> 01:00:11,250
[romantic music playing]
1120
01:00:13,083 --> 01:00:15,458
You know, I really like talking to you.
1121
01:00:16,708 --> 01:00:19,125
And I really like listening to you talk.
1122
01:00:19,208 --> 01:00:21,208
Well, I really like talking to you too.
1123
01:00:22,083 --> 01:00:23,291
And listening.
1124
01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:25,083
And sometimes,
1125
01:00:25,791 --> 01:00:28,625
I like to look really deep into your eyes.
1126
01:00:29,333 --> 01:00:31,583
Are we having a staring competition?
1127
01:00:33,625 --> 01:00:34,458
Wow.
1128
01:00:34,958 --> 01:00:38,916
Well, don't let me distract you, 'cause
I'm determined to win fair and square, but
1129
01:00:39,416 --> 01:00:41,833
how about a proper date?
1130
01:00:42,958 --> 01:00:44,500
Well, what about the fact that we--
1131
01:00:44,583 --> 01:00:45,583
Work together?
1132
01:00:48,333 --> 01:00:50,458
Technically, I'm a mere consultant.
1133
01:00:50,541 --> 01:00:52,666
There's nothing mere about you.
1134
01:01:04,791 --> 01:01:07,916
I've been wanting to do that
ever since I saw you on the A Train.
1135
01:01:11,041 --> 01:01:12,416
So, how about that date?
1136
01:01:12,916 --> 01:01:14,958
What do you think
we've been doing all night?
1137
01:01:15,541 --> 01:01:16,750
Oh, okay.
1138
01:01:16,833 --> 01:01:17,916

So, Lucas is my bud, always has been.
1141
01:01:32,500 --> 01:01:35,958
His wife is Zoe, and we became best
friends the minute they started dating.
1142
01:01:36,041 --> 01:01:39,833
And, uh, Julian is the number one son
and teaches law at Columbia.
1143
01:01:39,916 --> 01:01:41,291
Wow, I'm impressed.
1144
01:01:41,375 --> 01:01:43,375
- Yeah, so is he.
- [Garrett laughs]
1145
01:01:44,708 --> 01:01:47,166
Shit, I really didn't want
to be late today.
1146
01:01:47,666 --> 01:01:49,041
Look, we're not late.
1147
01:01:49,541 --> 01:01:52,958
You don't have anything to prove
to your brothers or your dad or anyone.
1148
01:01:56,666 --> 01:01:57,666
Thank you.
1149
01:01:59,750 --> 01:02:01,791
- [Julian] Sorry. I'm…
- [Catherine] If he says lecture…
1150
01:02:01,875 --> 01:02:03,625
- [Lucas] Garrett's a hit.
- It's fascinating.
1151
01:02:04,250 --> 01:02:05,125
[Alex] Yeah.
1152
01:02:05,625 --> 01:02:06,791
Can I say something?
1153
01:02:07,375 --> 01:02:10,500
You look different. In a really good way.
1154
01:02:11,791 --> 01:02:12,916
I feel different.
1155
01:02:13,916 --> 01:02:16,791
I mean, Garrett has
something to do with it, but…
1156
01:02:17,458 --> 01:02:19,666
- It's also this life list thing.
- Yeah?
1157
01:02:19,750 --> 01:02:22,458
Yeah. Who knows if I'll do it all, but
1158
01:02:23,166 --> 01:02:25,583
I don't know, I wonder
if that's even the point, you know?
1159
01:02:25,666 --> 01:02:27,083
What about make peace with Dad?
1160
01:02:28,333 --> 01:02:30,875
I think he just wants
to find a way forward.
1161
01:02:30,958 --> 01:02:32,458
I know, I know, but…
1162
01:02:33,250 --> 01:02:37,500
I need to find out about Johnny first, and
we haven't had any luck finding him, so…
1163

- [man] Hi, guys, your table is ready.
- Come on up.

1177
01:04:26,375 --> 01:04:28,416
Remember the summer
when you and your brothers
1178
01:04:28,500 --> 01:04:31,208
did the combination
car wash and lemonade stand,
1179
01:04:31,291 --> 01:04:35,000
and your brothers just assumed the money
would go to their video game fund…
1180
01:04:35,083 --> 01:04:38,833
Education is an important part of how we
support our families while they live here.
1181
01:04:38,916 --> 01:04:42,166
But you hung these everywhere
1182
01:04:42,250 --> 01:04:44,250
until they finally had to relent,
1183
01:04:44,333 --> 01:04:46,791
and all the money
went to the Humane Society.

Oh my God! Are you okay?
1196
01:05:24,291 --> 01:05:26,750
[Elizabeth] I thought I said
mosh pits were out of the question.
1197
01:05:26,833 --> 01:05:28,875
- Yeah!
- Yeah!
1198
01:05:28,958 --> 01:05:35,125
Just don't go anywhere near
a tattoo parlor or any vehicle whatsoever.

- I know you're trying, but…
- [Zoe] Got it?
1202
01:05:44,666 --> 01:05:47,375
I want you to write a letter
from you to yourself.
1203
01:05:47,458 --> 01:05:50,166
[Elizabeth] So here we are.
Be a great teacher.

["Clair de Lune" continues on piano]
1205
01:05:52,500 --> 01:05:54,666
I watched that movie that you gave me.
1206
01:06:01,791 --> 01:06:03,291
[Elizabeth] I always knew you were.
1207
01:06:07,916 --> 01:06:10,291
And if you are
actually watching this right now…
1208

Alex!
1217
01:07:21,166 --> 01:07:23,041
- Hey!
- Dad.
1218
01:07:23,750 --> 01:07:25,791
What are you doing
in this neck of the woods?
1219
01:07:25,875 --> 01:07:28,666
I was just getting coffee
with a… a work friend.
1220
01:07:28,750 --> 01:07:29,958
How about you?
1221
01:07:30,041 --> 01:07:32,833
I just had a meeting nearby.
I'm kind of waiting for my Uber now.
1222
01:07:34,500 --> 01:07:36,041
I'm sorry I haven't been in touch.
1223
01:07:36,125 --> 01:07:38,000
No, I-I understand.
1224
01:07:38,083 --> 01:07:40,416
I mean, I think I understand.
1225
01:07:41,583 --> 01:07:43,083
I just need a little more time.
1226
01:07:43,666 --> 01:07:44,625
I know.
1227
01:07:50,958 --> 01:07:52,166
It's good to see you.
1228
01:08:06,041 --> 01:08:07,166
Hey, sorry I'm late.
1229
01:08:07,250 --> 01:08:09,916
You're not. I'm early.
Uh," Clair de Lune."
1230
01:08:10,875 --> 01:08:12,791
[both] Nine down, three to go.
1231
01:08:13,375 --> 01:08:14,291
Jinx.
1232
01:08:14,375 --> 01:08:16,625
I want to put the detective back on.
1233
01:08:17,208 --> 01:08:20,291
I know, I know you're gonna say she hit
a dead end and that it's a lot of money--
1234
01:08:20,375 --> 01:08:21,583
I already did it.
1235
01:08:23,875 --> 01:08:26,916
I know, you can pay me back later or not.
1236
01:08:27,000 --> 01:08:29,583
You could just keep being my stylist. Um…
1237
01:08:30,166 --> 01:08:33,541
The point is,
we have to find Johnny, right?
1238
01:08:37,791 --> 01:08:38,750
Thanks.
1239
01:08:39,416 --> 01:08:40,541
Yeah, of course.
1240
01:08:41,750 --> 01:08:42,833
Ooh, sandwiches.
1241
01:08:44,708 --> 01:08:46,250
[Brad] So how are things with Garrett?
1242
01:08:46,333 --> 01:08:47,375
[Alex] Good. Really good.
1243
01:08:47,916 --> 01:08:48,833
[Brad] Okay.
1244
01:08:49,458 --> 01:08:51,375
Why are you looking at me like that?
1245
01:08:51,958 --> 01:08:53,666
It's probably nothing, it's just…
1246
01:08:54,500 --> 01:08:56,916
Do you think it's strange
he never wants to stay at my place?
1247
01:08:57,000 --> 01:09:00,208
Like, he always picks the movie
or the restaurant.
1248
01:09:00,708 --> 01:09:03,125
I don't know, it's kind of like
we live entirely in his world
1249
01:09:03,208 --> 01:09:05,500
and only occasionally will he visit mine.
1250
01:09:05,583 --> 01:09:06,666
Yep.
1251
01:09:06,750 --> 01:09:07,791
What?
1252
01:09:07,875 --> 01:09:09,583
It doesn't sound like nothing, right?
1253
01:09:09,666 --> 01:09:13,750
Like, how do you really know someone
unless you've seen their bookshelves
1254
01:09:13,833 --> 01:09:16,375
or, like, the crazy shit
they keep in their fridge?
1255
01:09:17,333 --> 01:09:20,500
How come every time we talk about Garrett,
you get all weird?
1256
01:09:20,583 --> 01:09:21,833
I thought you guys were friends.
1257
01:09:21,916 --> 01:09:25,000
We are friends. Of a certain kind.
1258
01:09:25,083 --> 01:09:26,750
The kind that
don't really like each other?
1259
01:09:26,833 --> 01:09:31,375
The point is that you should
talk to him about it before it festers.
1260
01:09:32,166 --> 01:09:33,000
Okay.
1261
01:09:38,583 --> 01:09:41,708
[chill music playing]
1262
01:09:41,791 --> 01:09:46,541
[Garrett] Sakina grew up here
but works in Mumbai doing microfinancing,
1263
01:09:46,625 --> 01:09:49,708
and Russell is the president
of the Psychiatric Institute.
1264
01:09:50,291 --> 01:09:51,500
Hey, can I ask you a favor?
1265
01:09:51,583 --> 01:09:53,875
- Uh-huh.
- Can we not talk about the list tonight?
1266
01:09:53,958 --> 01:09:55,416
Why? Everyone loves that story.
1267
01:09:55,500 --> 01:09:57,416
It's not a story, it's my life,
1268
01:09:57,500 --> 01:10:00,708
and I'm starting to feel
like a favorite pet trick.
1269
01:10:00,791 --> 01:10:04,083
Yeah, no, of course, sure. No life list.
1270
01:10:05,750 --> 01:10:06,750
Are you okay?
1271
01:10:07,833 --> 01:10:08,875
Yeah.
1272
01:10:08,958 --> 01:10:09,791
Alex?
1273
01:10:11,500 --> 01:10:13,000
It's nothing, it's just…
1274
01:10:14,500 --> 01:10:16,791
How come we never stay at my place?
1275
01:10:17,416 --> 01:10:19,375
Like, make dinner at my place.
1276
01:10:19,458 --> 01:10:21,791
Because you love my apartment.
1277
01:10:21,875 --> 01:10:24,625
I do, it's amazing, it's just…
1278
01:10:25,125 --> 01:10:25,958
It's yours.
1279
01:10:26,041 --> 01:10:29,125
It's your life and your friends and…
1280
01:10:30,958 --> 01:10:35,041
I don't know, I thought maybe you'd want
to be a bigger part of my life too.
1281
01:10:35,125 --> 01:10:38,000
Yeah, yeah, and we've hung out
with your family. We--
1282
01:10:38,083 --> 01:10:39,500
We had brunch once.
1283
01:10:41,291 --> 01:10:45,000
You always say that I should work harder
at unraveling my feelings, so…
1284
01:10:46,083 --> 01:10:48,208
Here they are, unraveled.
1285
01:10:50,208 --> 01:10:52,333
Thank you, and I'm sorry.
1286
01:10:53,333 --> 01:10:54,916
I'm sorry, you're right, I'm just…
1287
01:10:55,000 --> 01:10:57,625
I'm a really bad guest
'cause I'm a bit of a control freak.
1288
01:10:58,666 --> 01:11:00,708
I'm a lot of a control freak.
1289
01:11:00,791 --> 01:11:02,625
Maybe you should see a shrink.
1290
01:11:04,791 --> 01:11:06,666
Well, maybe I should
just stay at your place.
1291
01:11:06,750 --> 01:11:07,958
Really?
1292
01:11:08,541 --> 01:11:09,625
Really.

Oh, just give me one second.

Hello, Bradley.
1297
01:11:26,666 --> 01:11:27,750
Yeah, what's up?
1298
01:11:27,833 --> 01:11:28,958
[door opens]
1299
01:11:30,833 --> 01:11:32,125

1301
01:11:33,333 --> 01:11:35,333
- Baby?
- They found my dad!
1302
01:11:35,916 --> 01:11:37,208
They found Johnny.
1303
01:11:37,291 --> 01:11:40,625
He lives in Vermont, and he's still
a musician, just under a different name.
1304
01:11:40,708 --> 01:11:43,000
- Which is why we couldn't find him.
- Incredible.
1305
01:11:43,083 --> 01:11:44,333
Your father was missing?
1306
01:11:44,416 --> 01:11:45,916
No. Yes.
1307
01:11:46,000 --> 01:11:49,000
It's kind of a long story,
which I guess now I have to tell you.
1308
01:11:49,083 --> 01:11:52,000
Which is fine because I didn't get
a chance to read your New Yorker article,
1309
01:11:52,083 --> 01:11:54,583
and Garrett says that
we can't talk about Meghan Markle.
1310
01:11:54,666 --> 01:11:56,541
[both laughing]
1311
01:11:56,625 --> 01:11:57,750
Hi, I'm Alex.
1312
01:11:57,833 --> 01:11:59,125
- Hi.
- [Alex] Hi.
1313
01:11:59,208 --> 01:12:00,083
Hi.
1314
01:12:00,166 --> 01:12:03,166
[serene music playing]
1315
01:12:10,916 --> 01:12:12,500
[Brad] So, what have you decided?
1316
01:12:12,583 --> 01:12:15,000
Uh, well, Garrett and I are driving up
to Burlington tomorrow.
1317
01:12:15,083 --> 01:12:18,333
I'm gonna show up at the club where
Johnny's band plays and see what happens.
1318
01:12:18,416 --> 01:12:20,416
Are you sure that's not,
like, too in his face?
1319
01:12:20,500 --> 01:12:23,291
Maybe, but if I call him out of the blue
and he blows me off,
1320
01:12:23,375 --> 01:12:25,041
I don't know if I can handle that,
you know?
1321
01:12:25,125 --> 01:12:26,583
[doorbell rings]
1322
01:12:26,666 --> 01:12:28,625
I gotta go.
My first dinner guest has arrived.
1323
01:12:28,708 --> 01:12:30,250
- I'll keep you posted.
- Good luck.
1324
01:12:30,333 --> 01:12:32,166
- Thanks. Coming!
- [phone disconnects]
1325
01:12:34,833 --> 01:12:37,041
- Ta-da! Hey!
- Hey!
1326
01:12:37,125 --> 01:12:39,000
- How are you?
- Mwah. Come on in.
1327
01:12:39,666 --> 01:12:42,750
Place looks fantastic
with all the new furniture. It feels so…
1328
01:12:42,833 --> 01:12:43,875
Small?
1329
01:12:44,583 --> 01:12:47,208
It feels so you. So adorable.
1330
01:12:47,291 --> 01:12:48,291
You're sweet.
1331
01:12:49,125 --> 01:12:52,041
Okay, let me take this to the kitchen
and I'll go get changed.
1332
01:12:53,166 --> 01:12:54,416
Make yourself at home, okay?
1333
01:12:54,500 --> 01:12:55,833
Thank you. Yeah.
1334
01:13:10,791 --> 01:13:12,166
[creaks]
1335
01:13:12,250 --> 01:13:15,291
Oh, don't sit in the armchair.
I have to get the springs fixed.
1336
01:13:15,375 --> 01:13:17,208
- Okay.
- [doorbell rings]
1337
01:13:17,291 --> 01:13:18,750
Can you get that, please?
1338
01:13:20,250 --> 01:13:21,083
Hi.
1339
01:13:21,166 --> 01:13:24,208
Wow. You're even hotter than Alex said.
1340
01:13:24,791 --> 01:13:25,666
[laughs quietly]
1341
01:13:25,750 --> 01:13:26,916
- I'm Megan.
- I'm--
1342
01:13:27,000 --> 01:13:30,791
Garrett, duh. This is my girlfriend,
Nell. Alex, we're here.
1343
01:13:30,875 --> 01:13:31,875
[Alex] Be right there.
1344
01:13:31,958 --> 01:13:33,166
Hey. What's up?
1345
01:13:34,083 --> 01:13:36,666
- Hi.
- [Megan] Wow, this place is tiny.
1346
01:13:36,750 --> 01:13:38,458
I wonder what she's paying.
1347
01:13:38,541 --> 01:13:41,166
- [door closes]
- Oh. My. God.
1348
01:13:41,833 --> 01:13:42,833
[laughs]
1349
01:13:42,916 --> 01:13:44,583
Alex, you got a tattoo?
1350
01:13:44,666 --> 01:13:46,291
- Is that the… Yeah.
- The list!
1351
01:13:46,375 --> 01:13:49,125
I can't believe how much
she's already done.
1352
01:13:49,208 --> 01:13:53,291
Oh, except that one
still isn't crossed off.
1353
01:13:54,166 --> 01:13:57,291
Get with the program, Garrett.
She's only got till New Year's.
1354
01:13:57,375 --> 01:13:58,333
[doorbell rings]
1355
01:13:58,416 --> 01:13:59,583
I got it.
1356
01:13:59,666 --> 01:14:02,291
[Megan] Love her, she's getting the door
in somebody else's house.
1357
01:14:02,375 --> 01:14:03,291
Hello.
1358
01:14:03,375 --> 01:14:04,791
- Hi. I'm Zoe.
- [Nell] Hey.
1359
01:14:04,875 --> 01:14:07,291
- Nell. Nice to meet you.
- Oh, I've heard so much about you.
1360

01:22:24,583 --> 01:22:25,791
Oh shit.
1528
01:22:25,875 --> 01:22:26,916
Oh shit.
1529
01:22:27,708 --> 01:22:28,625
Hey.
1530
01:22:29,416 --> 01:22:30,583
Do you have a cell phone?
1531
01:22:30,666 --> 01:22:31,583
Uh, yeah.
1532
01:22:31,666 --> 01:22:32,958
Yeah? Hand it over.
1533
01:22:33,041 --> 01:22:33,916
What?
1534
01:22:34,000 --> 01:22:35,291
I want to take a selfie.
1535
01:22:35,375 --> 01:22:38,708
It will last way longer than you two
staring a hole through my head.
1536
01:22:38,791 --> 01:22:39,833
I'm sorry, we--
1537
01:22:39,916 --> 01:22:41,750
Are you from the revenue?
1538
01:22:41,833 --> 01:22:45,625
It's… Uh… [clears throat]
We're not from the IRS.
1539
01:22:45,708 --> 01:22:49,875
Actually, my name is Brad,
and this is Alex.
1540
01:22:50,458 --> 01:22:52,125
Alexandra, actually.
1541
01:22:53,208 --> 01:22:54,166
Rose.
1542
01:22:56,750 --> 01:22:57,875
Hi.
1543
01:22:57,958 --> 01:22:58,833
Alexandra.
1544
01:23:00,083 --> 01:23:00,958
Surprise.
1545
01:23:01,875 --> 01:23:04,000
Alexandra Carolina Rose.
1546
01:23:04,875 --> 01:23:06,250
You know my full name.
1547
01:23:06,333 --> 01:23:08,750
Of course.
I wrote a song when you were born.
1548
01:23:08,833 --> 01:23:11,458
It was called
Una Rosa Con El Nombre De Otra.
1549
01:23:11,541 --> 01:23:13,250
A sad love song.
1550
01:23:14,083 --> 01:23:15,500
About Elizabeth and you.
1551
01:23:16,125 --> 01:23:17,416
Did you ever record that?
1552
01:23:17,500 --> 01:23:21,583
No. No, no. It was just a way
of dealing with life in the moment.
1553
01:23:22,916 --> 01:23:24,916
So, I'm curious,
what kind of music do you like?
1554
01:23:26,208 --> 01:23:27,083
All kinds.
1555
01:23:27,666 --> 01:23:31,041
Lately, I've been listening to
this Mexican singer I really like,
1556
01:23:31,125 --> 01:23:32,166
Natalia Lafourcade.
1557
01:23:32,250 --> 01:23:33,375
Uh-huh.
1558
01:23:33,458 --> 01:23:36,541
Oh, and I've been taking
piano lessons for a while now.
1559
01:23:36,625 --> 01:23:38,916
It's a lot of work
to get good at an instrument.
1560
01:23:39,000 --> 01:23:40,416
- [Johnny laughs]
- Or anything.
1561
01:23:40,500 --> 01:23:43,666
Yeah. Life, for instance.
1562
01:23:45,250 --> 01:23:47,708
To the memory of your beautiful mother.
1563
01:23:49,166 --> 01:23:50,125
Cheers.
1564
01:23:56,125 --> 01:23:57,583
Can I ask you something?
1565
01:23:58,250 --> 01:24:00,166
Were you ever curious about me?
1566
01:24:00,250 --> 01:24:01,333
Of course.
1567
01:24:02,458 --> 01:24:05,208
I played a gig in New York
a long time ago.
1568
01:24:05,291 --> 01:24:07,375
And while we were in town, I…
1569
01:24:08,208 --> 01:24:11,541
I drove out to Brooklyn and
I parked my car in front of your house.
1570
01:24:12,291 --> 01:24:14,750
I saw your brothers
coming back from school
1571
01:24:14,833 --> 01:24:19,750
and Sam honking his horn
as he pulled into the driveway.
1572
01:24:19,833 --> 01:24:24,500
And then the front door opens and…
1573
01:24:26,291 --> 01:24:29,083
a little girl comes out to greet her dad.
1574
01:24:29,583 --> 01:24:32,291
No, I don't think I ever did that.
1575
01:24:32,375 --> 01:24:37,125
He swings you round and round, and then
the two of you go back into the house.
1576
01:24:37,708 --> 01:24:38,708
No, that…
1577
01:24:40,083 --> 01:24:42,541
That's just not something
that Samuel would do with me.
1578
01:24:44,041 --> 01:24:48,791
Maybe because the fact is
he isn't my real father.
1579
01:24:49,833 --> 01:24:50,875
You are.
1580
01:24:52,791 --> 01:24:56,375
There are facts, and there's what's true.
1581
01:24:57,250 --> 01:24:59,541
And a person needs to make room for both.
1582
01:25:04,166 --> 01:25:05,083
What's his name?
1583
01:25:05,166 --> 01:25:06,000
- Brad.
- Brad.
1584
01:25:07,000 --> 01:25:10,000
Brad seems like a cool guy.
Is he your… your boyfriend?
1585
01:25:10,083 --> 01:25:11,083
- No.
- No?
1586
01:25:11,166 --> 01:25:12,166
No, he's, um…
1587
01:25:13,750 --> 01:25:15,458
He's just a really great friend.
1588
01:25:15,541 --> 01:25:17,000
- [man] Hey, Johnny.
- Yeah?
1589
01:25:17,583 --> 01:25:18,583
You ready?
1590
01:25:19,375 --> 01:25:20,750
Yeah. Back to work.
1591
01:25:20,833 --> 01:25:23,041
Right, yeah. Of course.
1592
01:25:23,125 --> 01:25:24,083
Um…
1593
01:25:24,583 --> 01:25:26,875
Can we maybe talk some more after the set?
1594
01:25:26,958 --> 01:25:30,208
Uh, that's going to be tricky, but we can
meet tomorrow morning if you want.
1595
01:25:30,291 --> 01:25:32,666
- Where are you staying?
- At the Marriott on Cherry.
1596
01:25:32,750 --> 01:25:36,666
Uh-huh. Yeah, they make a pretty good
corned beef hash there, yeah.
1597
01:25:38,041 --> 01:25:39,250
Ten in the morning.
1598
01:25:41,416 --> 01:25:43,541
That would be wonderful.
1599
01:25:43,625 --> 01:25:45,125
I'll see you in the morning.
1600
01:25:45,708 --> 01:25:46,666
Bye, Alexandra.
1601
01:25:58,208 --> 01:26:00,166
Hey. How'd it go?
1602
01:26:01,000 --> 01:26:04,916
[guitar playing melancholy tune]
1603
01:26:10,625 --> 01:26:16,166

[song fades out]
1605
01:26:55,375 --> 01:27:00,625
I mean, it was awkward,
but at the same time, it felt so… real.
1606
01:27:00,708 --> 01:27:01,916
- Yeah.
- Intimate.
1607
01:27:02,833 --> 01:27:03,916
I don't know.
1608
01:27:04,583 --> 01:27:07,583
And he has this really cool way
of saying things like,
1609
01:27:07,666 --> 01:27:10,125
"There's facts, and there's what's true."
1610
01:27:10,208 --> 01:27:11,583
- [Brad exhales]
- [Alex laughs]
1611
01:27:11,666 --> 01:27:14,166
What about when he asked
if we were from "the revenue"?
1612
01:27:14,250 --> 01:27:15,750
- Yeah.
- He's such a man's man.
1613
01:27:15,833 --> 01:27:16,666
I know!
1614
01:27:17,791 --> 01:27:19,458
By the way,
he asked if you're my boyfriend.
1615
01:27:19,541 --> 01:27:20,541
- No way.
- Yeah.
1616
01:27:22,250 --> 01:27:23,208
I think he liked you.
1617
01:27:23,291 --> 01:27:24,708
["Doctor My Eyes" plays in background]
1618
01:27:24,791 --> 01:27:26,958
[Brad] So what you're saying is
you're moving to Vermont.
1619
01:27:27,041 --> 01:27:29,666
Mm-hmm. I mean, why not? It's beautiful.
1620
01:27:29,750 --> 01:27:32,750
- Okay.
- And there's cows, and I love cows.
1621
01:27:32,833 --> 01:27:36,916
And there's ice cream.
And my dad lives here.
1622
01:27:37,000 --> 01:27:38,541
No, you're a city girl.
1623

You milking cows?
Are you kidding? That's not--
1624
01:27:40,916 --> 01:27:43,250
I wouldn't be milking the cows.
Are you nuts?
1625
01:27:43,333 --> 01:27:44,333
[rock song plays]
1626
01:27:44,416 --> 01:27:46,833
There's the facts,
and then there's the truth.
1627
01:27:46,916 --> 01:27:51,458
No. No, he said there is facts,
and then there's what's true.
1628
01:27:52,041 --> 01:27:53,208
What's true?
1629
01:27:53,291 --> 01:27:57,250
Okay. Fact, this is a glass.
1630

- Uh-huh.
- Truth…

We need another drink.

- We have to play Sinéad.

- Just have some variety in our evening…
- No. No.

01:34:11,750 --> 01:34:14,708
Okay. Why didn't you tell me this
before you got into bed with me?
1701
01:34:14,791 --> 01:34:16,625
I know I should have.
1702
01:34:17,208 --> 01:34:20,500
- Yeah.
- Everything just happened so fast, and…
1703
01:34:20,583 --> 01:34:22,041
[phone buzzes]
1704
01:34:22,791 --> 01:34:23,666
[van door opens]
1705
01:34:26,333 --> 01:34:27,583
[Brad] Ugh…
1706
01:34:28,166 --> 01:34:29,500
Yeah. [sighs]
1707
01:34:31,500 --> 01:34:32,333
Sorry.
1708
01:34:34,916 --> 01:34:37,333
Don't go. Please, Alex.
1709
01:34:43,166 --> 01:34:45,541
Look, Garrett is an amazing guy.
1710
01:34:46,416 --> 01:34:48,041
I get it. He's…
1711
01:34:49,208 --> 01:34:53,791
sophisticated and accomplished, and he… I…
1712
01:34:55,833 --> 01:34:57,166
[exhales]
1713
01:34:58,541 --> 01:35:00,000
I don't believe you love him.
1714
01:35:00,666 --> 01:35:02,166
I don't even really think you like him.
1715
01:35:02,250 --> 01:35:04,750
- You like how you feel about yourself…
- You need to stop talking.
1716
01:35:04,833 --> 01:35:06,000
- When you're with him.
- Wow.
1717
01:35:06,083 --> 01:35:09,083
You need validation
even after everything you've done…
1718
01:35:09,166 --> 01:35:11,166
- You're full of shit.
- …since your mom died.
1719
01:35:11,250 --> 01:35:13,416
Telling me what I want
and how to live my life.
1720
01:35:14,500 --> 01:35:16,541
Right, 'cause that would be Garrett's job.
1721
01:35:16,625 --> 01:35:18,625
[poignant music plays]
1722
01:35:18,708 --> 01:35:20,416
[laughs quietly]
1723
01:35:20,500 --> 01:35:21,416
Wow.
1724
01:35:32,916 --> 01:35:33,791
[door closes]
1725
01:35:43,541 --> 01:35:44,541
[building door closes]
1726
01:35:50,625 --> 01:35:51,583
It's okay.
1727
01:36:01,125 --> 01:36:02,041
[Alex sighs]
1728
01:36:02,541 --> 01:36:04,791
The other night wasn't about the list.
1729
01:36:05,375 --> 01:36:09,916
I was just freaking out about the broken
armchair, and your friends were…
1730
01:36:11,833 --> 01:36:14,458
And the book I gave you
that you didn't read.
1731
01:36:17,000 --> 01:36:18,000
But then…
1732
01:36:19,500 --> 01:36:22,333
I have just spent the whole weekend
missing you.
1733
01:36:23,750 --> 01:36:26,333
I spent the whole weekend
missing your smile
1734
01:36:26,416 --> 01:36:29,833
and missing all your goofy stuff.
1735
01:36:31,083 --> 01:36:34,916
And I realized that we can do this.
That I can do this.
1736
01:36:37,625 --> 01:36:39,416
You didn't ask me how it went with Johnny.
1737
01:36:42,166 --> 01:36:45,000
I'm so- I'm sorry. How… How did it go?
1738
01:36:45,875 --> 01:36:46,875
Not great.
1739
01:36:49,666 --> 01:36:50,666
The thing is,
1740
01:36:51,916 --> 01:36:56,291
my messy place,
my friends, the books I read…
1741
01:36:57,625 --> 01:36:58,708
They're me, Garrett.
1742
01:37:02,000 --> 01:37:03,041
They're all me.
1743
01:37:10,583 --> 01:37:15,041
[quiet, resolute music playing]
1744
01:37:55,375 --> 01:37:57,583
[indistinct conversation]
1745
01:38:06,916 --> 01:38:08,500
[birds chirping]
1746
01:38:10,416 --> 01:38:11,625
[Alex] Hey.
1747
01:38:11,708 --> 01:38:12,708
Hey.
1748
01:38:13,916 --> 01:38:14,916
[Alex] Shall we?
1749
01:38:17,166 --> 01:38:18,125
Yeah.
1750
01:38:20,916 --> 01:38:23,625
I don't understand why
Lucas wants us to meet with a broker.
1751
01:38:23,708 --> 01:38:27,083
We can't put the house on the market
until the new year.
1752
01:38:32,833 --> 01:38:35,375
If you don't mind me asking, how are you?
1753
01:38:36,333 --> 01:38:39,041
Good. How are you? How are the kids?
1754
01:38:39,583 --> 01:38:40,583
They miss you.
1755
01:38:41,333 --> 01:38:42,208
Yeah, me too.
1756
01:38:44,208 --> 01:38:46,416
When is Lucas getting here?
I have stuff to do.
1757
01:38:46,500 --> 01:38:48,375
[Lucas] I'm here! Hey!
1758
01:38:49,583 --> 01:38:51,708
Hi, what's up?
1759
01:38:51,791 --> 01:38:53,833
- Where's the broker?
- Broker's not coming.
1760
01:38:53,916 --> 01:38:54,875
What?
1761
01:38:54,958 --> 01:38:56,958
Yeah, I've got something
I want to show you.
1762
01:38:57,541 --> 01:38:59,625
Just, it's gonna be all right, just…
1763
01:39:00,833 --> 01:39:04,083
Whoa, what? I don't understand.
1764
01:39:05,250 --> 01:39:07,125
[Alex] Camping out under a full moon.
1765
01:39:07,208 --> 01:39:08,916
Number seven on the list.
1766
01:39:09,000 --> 01:39:10,041
Bingo.
1767
01:39:10,125 --> 01:39:11,583
- This is sweet but…
- No, Chloe--
1768
01:39:11,666 --> 01:39:13,666
Guys, just stop. Just shut up.
1769
01:39:13,750 --> 01:39:15,333
Both of you shut up, okay?
1770
01:39:15,416 --> 01:39:18,458
We are gonna do this so, uh…
1771
01:39:19,958 --> 01:39:23,666
Let's crack open the wine, get started.
1772
01:39:24,500 --> 01:39:25,458
Yeah?
1773
01:39:27,583 --> 01:39:28,458
Yeah.
1774
01:39:29,583 --> 01:39:32,000
[Alex] So I got there at 10, and
1775
01:39:32,583 --> 01:39:34,500
half an hour went by, and then an hour.
1776
01:39:34,583 --> 01:39:37,083
And Johnny never showed up,
and you're just sitting there waiting.
1777
01:39:38,958 --> 01:39:40,333
Must've been so tough, Alex.
1778
01:39:41,291 --> 01:39:42,291
I'm sorry.
1779
01:39:42,375 --> 01:39:43,875
[Alex] I wasn't totally surprised.
1780
01:39:44,916 --> 01:39:45,916
I liked him.
1781
01:39:47,250 --> 01:39:50,208
But even though he told me stuff,
it kind of felt like he was
1782
01:39:50,291 --> 01:39:52,458
- holding something back, you know?
- [Julian] Mm-hmm.
1783
01:39:52,541 --> 01:39:55,583
Have you called Dad?
Since you-you got back?
1784
01:39:56,916 --> 01:40:00,666
I mean, I-I get it.
You're not… You're not ready, but…
1785
01:40:01,791 --> 01:40:03,625
All he does is ask about you.
1786
01:40:06,333 --> 01:40:08,666
Remember when you said
that finding out about Johnny
1787
01:40:08,750 --> 01:40:11,041
explained a lot about
your relationship with Dad?
1788
01:40:12,541 --> 01:40:14,166
I felt the same way.
1789
01:40:15,041 --> 01:40:18,291
Except for me, it was you and Mom.
1790
01:40:20,166 --> 01:40:21,083
Your bond.
1791
01:40:22,583 --> 01:40:25,166
Your little secrets
and your private jokes.
1792
01:40:25,750 --> 01:40:29,583
Like a club the rest of us
weren't allowed into.
1793
01:40:33,666 --> 01:40:36,833
Maybe for a moment think about
what that was like for Dad.
1794
01:40:38,041 --> 01:40:39,125
For Lucas and me.
1795
01:40:43,500 --> 01:40:44,750
Is that how you felt?
1796
01:40:48,541 --> 01:40:49,541
Wow.
1797
01:40:50,916 --> 01:40:51,875
I had…
1798
01:40:52,875 --> 01:40:54,041
I had no idea.
1799
01:41:01,833 --> 01:41:03,500
I think I need another drink.
1800
01:41:05,916 --> 01:41:07,916
[Lucas] Ah.
1801
01:41:10,500 --> 01:41:12,041
I just remembered something.
1802
01:41:20,041 --> 01:41:22,583
- [Julian] Uh…
- [Alex] Julian, what are we doing up here?
1803
01:41:22,666 --> 01:41:24,708
Uh… Oh yeah.
1804
01:41:25,458 --> 01:41:26,916
It's over here.
1805
01:41:27,000 --> 01:41:29,458
[Lucas] When's the last time
we were all up here together?
1806
01:41:29,541 --> 01:41:30,416
[Alex] Ages.
1807
01:41:31,125 --> 01:41:32,208
Incredible.
1808
01:41:32,291 --> 01:41:34,666
[laughs] It's still here.
1809
01:41:36,375 --> 01:41:39,250
- Oh my God, dude. [laughing] What?
- [Alex splutters]
1810
01:41:40,416 --> 01:41:43,333
Julian, you little devil. This whole time
you never said anything?
1811
01:41:43,416 --> 01:41:46,875
Look, even anal brainiacs
need to unwind sometimes. Okay?
1812
01:41:47,500 --> 01:41:48,666
Think it's any good? [sniffs]
1813
01:41:48,750 --> 01:41:50,875
It's been here for, like, 15 years.
1814
01:41:51,375 --> 01:41:54,291
Well, there's only one way to find out.
1815
01:41:55,625 --> 01:42:00,041
[Alex, stoned] So, Julian came up here
for his secret stash.
1816
01:42:00,625 --> 01:42:03,708
What about you, Lucas?
What shenanigans did you get up to?
1817
01:42:04,750 --> 01:42:07,375
I-I lost my virginity
1818
01:42:08,166 --> 01:42:10,500
in that corner, on that mattress,
1819
01:42:11,416 --> 01:42:12,375
with Valerie Hoffman.
1820
01:42:12,958 --> 01:42:14,708
- Wow!
- [Alex] Valerie Hoffman?
1821
01:42:14,791 --> 01:42:15,833
Yes.
1822
01:42:15,916 --> 01:42:17,416
Dude, she was so out of your league.
1823
01:42:17,500 --> 01:42:18,541
Dude, I know.
1824
01:42:18,625 --> 01:42:19,958
- [Alex snickers]
- Uh…
1825
01:42:20,041 --> 01:42:24,166
- I don't know, it was a one-time thing.
- I bet.
1826
01:42:24,250 --> 01:42:26,125
[Lucas] It was like, all I remember
1827
01:42:26,208 --> 01:42:29,375
is hearing Oprah
on the TV downstairs the whole time.
1828
01:42:29,500 --> 01:42:31,166
[Julian and Alex laugh]
1829
01:42:31,250 --> 01:42:32,916
[Julian] What about you, little sister?
1830
01:42:33,000 --> 01:42:35,041
Any secrets we should know about?
1831
01:42:36,375 --> 01:42:40,166
I used to have these really elaborate
sleepovers with my friends.
1832
01:42:41,750 --> 01:42:44,291
And there was one night
that we each wrote down
1833
01:42:44,375 --> 01:42:47,458
all the things that
we wanted to accomplish in life.
1834
01:42:48,000 --> 01:42:49,583
[Lucas] Like, the list?
1835
01:42:51,625 --> 01:42:52,458
Yeah.
1836
01:42:54,041 --> 01:42:55,000
[Lucas] Wow.
1837
01:42:56,750 --> 01:42:57,750
And here we are.
1838
01:42:57,833 --> 01:42:59,291
[Alex exhales]
1839
01:43:02,083 --> 01:43:02,958
Alex?
1840
01:43:04,083 --> 01:43:05,041
Yeah?
1841
01:43:06,666 --> 01:43:07,666
What are they like?
1842
01:43:09,833 --> 01:43:11,500
The DVDs Mom left you.
1843
01:43:25,833 --> 01:43:28,083
- Ready?
- Yes.
1844
01:43:30,791 --> 01:43:32,833
Remember the summer
when you and your brothers
1845
01:43:32,916 --> 01:43:35,375
did the combination
car wash and lemonade stand,
1846
01:43:35,458 --> 01:43:39,916
and your brothers assumed that the money
would go to their video game fund,
1847
01:43:40,000 --> 01:43:43,250
but you hung these everywhere…
1848
01:43:43,333 --> 01:43:45,458
- [brothers laughing]
- …until they finally had to relent,
1849
01:43:45,541 --> 01:43:48,375
and all the money
went to the Humane Society.
1850
01:43:48,458 --> 01:43:51,583
What? I thought I said
mosh pits were out of the question.
1851
01:43:51,666 --> 01:43:53,500
- [Alex laughs]
- Fine.
1852
01:43:53,583 --> 01:43:59,333
Just don't go anywhere near
a tattoo parlor or any vehicle whatsoever.
1853
01:43:59,916 --> 01:44:01,625
I want you to live your best life.
1854
01:44:02,291 --> 01:44:04,833
You have to get yourself
out of this hole that you're in.
1855
01:44:05,583 --> 01:44:10,833
I'm not gonna be around to dig you out,
but I can sure as hell leave you a shovel.
1856
01:44:11,833 --> 01:44:14,291
Do you remember
the cottage we rented upstate?
1857
01:44:14,375 --> 01:44:19,333
And at night, we would all go sit out
on the porch together
1858
01:44:19,416 --> 01:44:22,208
and just look at the moon and the stars.
1859
01:44:23,583 --> 01:44:30,250
And it seemed like the only time that
we didn't have to talk or tease or argue.
1860
01:44:31,666 --> 01:44:34,166
And sometimes you'd curl up
in your father's lap,
1861
01:44:34,750 --> 01:44:36,500
and it was just quiet.
1862
01:44:38,791 --> 01:44:44,291
Just a moment
to experience that sense of wonder
1863
01:44:45,416 --> 01:44:50,375
and reflect and be grateful
for all that we have.
1864
01:44:50,458 --> 01:44:52,416
And most of all, for each other.
1865
01:44:53,916 --> 01:44:54,875
Hi.
1866
01:44:57,166 --> 01:44:58,375
Hey, Dad.
1867
01:44:59,541 --> 01:45:00,791
[Samuel] So happy to see you.
1868
01:45:04,041 --> 01:45:08,083
[uplifting music playing]
1869
01:45:10,000 --> 01:45:12,791
I would pull up in the driveway,
home from work…
1870
01:45:14,750 --> 01:45:17,958
…run out of the house,
