my wife cheated on me.
She accused me of cheating on her so she could get a better divorce settlement, and she knows I won't fight it.

You know it creeps me out.
Okay,well,stop stop being so macho.
What are you gonna do,light candles now? Yes,as a matter of fact.
Look,I'm creating a meditative atmosphere.
It's a well-known fact meditation can help minimize pain.
The only thing you're minimizing right now is my testosterone level.

- you want me to stay with you? - Kevin,I'm not dying.
- You don't need to keep a vigil for me.
- Okay,fine.
Back in a bit.
- how did it go? - He'd be a model patient if he weren't so ornery.
Is he really not taking any medication? - Aspirin,ibuprofen.
- That's not enough.
No.
The doctors told him yesterday point-blank,by not taking the painkillers, he's interfering with his own recovery.
He not sleeping.
He's not resting.
He's just not getting better.
Just because you're staying with your daddy,paige, doesn't mean you can use that tone with me.
Well,I am sorry that you think that.
I still love you.
Okay?Bye-bye,chicken.
Yeah,I got mother of the year all sewn up.
- Where's justin? - Taking a bath.
Is he still in pain? - Yes.
- Bad.
He's still not taking his meds.
He's afraid.
He wants to stay sober.
Yeah,but if by not taking them he's stalling rehab, or worse,risking more injury he could have trouble walking,running mm,surfing.
Did you try surfing? Yes,I offered to buy him a new surfboard.
What,am I crazy?I'm terrified 'll become an addict again.
I know what he went through,what we all went through.
You're not crazy,mom.
Every time I talk to him,it's like talking to a stone wall.
Well,I think we should keep trying.
how do you manage to smell so good, even in the basement of a chemical plant? God,is there some sort of presidential aftershave you're wearing? You smell like a power devil.
- A power devil? - yeah.
Is that like a tasmanian devil?'Cause I think I shot one of those once.
Okay,uh,listen.
Hey.
Six minutes ago I learned that your ex-wife courtney is going on "larry king," where she will be nastily telegenic while also sympathetic and vulnerable.
Look,people are sick of that stuff.
They want to talk about health care,jobs,the war, why it's 72 degrees in iowa in the middle of october.
Right? What?Whywhy are you giving me that face? Well,because travis has a point.
They also want to make sure that you didn't throw your wife under a bus in a mad dash to power.
- Youyou're definitely gonna have to talk to her.
- Thank you.
Finally.
So you think that I should crawl into the gutter with her.
No.
No,I don't think you're gonna have to crawl.
II think she'll drag you there.
Enough.
I have voters to meet with.
He so listens to you.
I'm awed.
- He has to make up his own mind.
- Yes,but you can help him with that.
we have to muzzle her,kitty.
Would you talk to him? As his smiling fiancee or his communications director? Either,but pick one.
I'll go along with whichever you decide.
so you're gonna love this accounting program.
And as the business grows, you can expand the functionality to handle online orders.

Well,I just couldn't spend another second away from my girls.
I swear I could eat this child up.

Yeah,I was thinking about that week in maui and how you wore an orchid in your hair every day,and I oh.

I brought you a ginger ale.
Thanks.
Mom,I'm okay.
I'm fine.
Oh,yeah,you're fine.
You're terrific.
We should all be so lucky.
All right,tell me,what's the fastest way out of this conversation? - By having it.
- Okay,I'm not "fine.
" No,you're not fine.
I think we you should explore the possibility of taking the pain medication.
You realize you're talking to your son justin? The youngest one,the one with the drug problem? I've talked to all of your doctors and your physical therapist.
I even called dr.
Benedict.
My pediatrician?Mom,you know what?I'm not 12 years old,okay? This isn't strep throat.
He's one of the most respected doctors in this town.
They all agree that if we keep the dosage low, - if we monitor - mom,I don't care what they think! Okay,did you call the rehab where I sobered up?Did you call my sponsor? When you got sober,I was there every day,.
and I worried about you every minute that I wasn'T Do you think I want to be standing here advocating you - using drugs again for any reason? - Then why are you doing it,mom? Because I'm old enough to know that when life does something this horrible to you,there are no rules as to how to get over it.
You just have to do whatever you can,anything you can,to make it better.
Ma,I can't,okay?"Anything" is not an option for me.
Proudly Presents Season 2 Episode 3 Can we at least discuss this? Would you please stop walking so fast? - I got a plane to catch.
- Honey,it's your plane.
They're not gonna be leaving without you.
I am not gonna beg my ex-wife not to discuss an affair that I never had.
Okay,fine,fine.
Don't beg.
Justjust draw that line in the sand.
Do you have any idea how much the electorate loathes politicians right now? It has been crooks,liars and hypocrites since the salem witch trials.
I'm not gettin' down in the muck while insisting that faith and honor be restored to american politics.
You're not gonna survive a sex scandal.
And the voters don't even know you yet.
There'sthere's not gonna be any insisting on anything because you're gonna end up a joke on late night.
And is this the opinion of a politico or a girl who's pissed 'cause her guy's getting slandered? if you want to bring faith back to politics,robert, you're gonna have to fight for your name.
If an uncomfortable conversation with your ex is too much to ask, well,then,yeah,the politico in me and the girl has to wonder how much faith you have in yourself.
- I hate this.
- Yeah.
Yeah,me,too.
Talk to her.
kevin,your 4:00 with mr.
Balanchine is here.
Send him waltzing on in,lisa.
Wow.
Scotty - Uh,wh-why the subterfuge? - I'm sorry.
I didn't think you'd take the meeting given how weird things were last time we met.
you know,I'm look,I'm sorry.
I sh I should never have slept with you thatthat night.
It was it was really wrong.
Well,it's not like you drugged me.
- You look good.
- Thank you.
I'mI'm okay.
It's nice to see you.
- So is everything okay? - No,kevin.
I need a lawyer,preferably one who might be flexible about payment.
Okay,what happened?Did you get nabbed shoplifting mascara and a thong? I got a D.
U.
I.
I had a glass of pinot gris,but it's impossible I was drunk.
Did they do a breathalyzer?What was your blood alcohol? Right over the legal limit.
Kevin,this cop was weird.
He took one look at me,and he was totally homophobic.
I was wearing pink shorts and an old queen t-shirt, and he smirked and put on gloves when he took my license.
And thenand then he made this face like I had some disease.
Did he?Do you have the notice to appear? - So he stopped you for a broken taillight? - I wasn't even driving wonkY.
If I lose my license,I'll get fired.
I need to be able to drive the catering van.
This is such bad timing.
I've been trying to be a grown-up.
Yeah,it's hard work,isn't it? Look,scotty,I may be able to get an iffy ticket thrown out, but next time,will you please take a cab? You know,the thought of you in jail is pretty terrible, but someone hurt,that's worse.
- Does this mean you'll help? - Of course.
- that is not what he looked like,dad.
- Oh,come on.
I've got eyes in my head,little girl.
That prom date sasquatch in a powder blue t.
It was the same color as that karmann ghia that tony campbell used to drive.
It was a beetle.
- He runs his own architecture firm now.
- Really? It's a tough business.
Yeah,it's tougher still when you don't have daddy's money to get you started.
I always wondered why you didn't go into architecture,jules.
Well,she still could.
My little girl can do anything she sets her mind to.
- I always wanted to be a dancer.
- No problem.
Just have to amputate those two left feet of yours.
what? Nothing,it's just it's nice to hear you laugh.
- Well,I'll drink to that.
- hear,hear.
- Cheers,dear.
- Cheers,dad.
- You know,this pinot is not half bad.
- You sound surprised.
Well,it's not like you've got that much experience in the winemaking business.
What I lack in experience I make up for with hard work.
Well,I think both of you have been working too hard.
Jules,what do you say tomorrow you and lizzie and i have an adventure? I would love to see the huntington gardens.
- That sounds great.
- good.
And,uh,if the girls aren't around, uh,what do you say you and I get into some trouble on our own? Trouble? Sign me up.
Mom,thank you very much for dinner.
I think I'm gonna go watch a little T gonna go watch a little tv.
- no,no,I got it.
- No,no,you know - I got it.
- I can do it.
When you're off the crutches,then you can do the dishes, not that you've ever done them before.
So just go and lie down.
All right,mom.
It shouldn't still be this bad.
I think he's doing much better than when he first came home.
In what way? I don't know,but I think it's incredibly brave of him to try to get through this without the drugs.
It's not bra,it's pigheaded.
He's always been that way.
Justin sets his mind on something it doesn't matter how wrong it is I can't budge him.
But how he takes care of that knee over the next few months will affect the rest of his life.
If he can't rehab properly because of the pain nora,have you tried telling him all of this? Of course you have.
You're you.
That's why he won't listen to me.
He'llisten to you,rebecca.
NoraI don't know.
Please,I need your help.
I justI-I don't think I feel comfortable trying to convince him to take drugs.
Do you think I do? But I have talked to every doctor.
I have googled every web site in existence looking for another option,and there isn't any.
The only option I have left is you,rebecca.
Please,please,please talk to him.
I'll try.
Thank you.
I stopped mr.
Wandell, who was in a rusted orange 1972 ranchero missing a taillight.
And you stopped him for the taillight? And felt that, because of his demeanor and his breath,alcohol had been imbibed recently.
- What was his demeanor? - A lot of catty back talk.
And you gave him a breathalyzer test? His blood alcohol level was .
08, which is just over the legal limit.
It also appeared he was living in his vehicle.
It's like an extra closet,is all.
I don't think that's relevant,officer.
And the breathalyzer machine is accurate enough to be used as evidence in a court of law in the state of california? Yeah,standard.
Standard except when said breathalyzer hasn't been calibrated every month.
Your honor,I wish to introduce into evidence,with the court's permission, the maintenance records for the instrument in question serial number 4-5-6-4-7-0-2.
Oh,officer,if you'd like to have a look at it, we'll happily wait for you to put your gloves on, seeing as how you needed them to inspect my client's license.
Your honor,we take this charge very seriously.
However,it is not my expectation when I ask,as a formality, to inspect the maintenance records of the instrument in question, that two regularly scheduled inspections were missed.
- Officer phipps.
- Yes,your honor? Your honor,this invalidates the basis of the case.
And seeing as how my client's blood alcohol was barely above the legal limit - enough.
Case dismissed.
- Thank you You got bubkes,son.
He also called me "little miss officer," your honor.
Sue him for defamation.
Next case.
- you're my hero.
- I gotta get back to the office.
- The pro bono circus hour's over.
- Look,um,I know I can't pay you,but at least let me take you to dinner? - I can get us into san estephe.
- San estephe?Are you kidding? It takes months to get a reservation there,and I know you can't afford it.
And you know what?I'm not gonna dine and ditch with you,scotty.
You know,trust me,please.
Just,like,a little bit of faith? Oh,hey.
What are you up to? I am going on a field trip,and you're comin' with me.
Yeah.
Good luck getting that past general walker.
Yeah,well,she's out running errands.
Now's our chance.
courtney.
Well,you're traveling without your entourage, so that begs the question,what do you want? I think you know.
- You look tired.
- I'm running for president.
- Of course I'm tired.
- I'm not entirely sure I want to discuss this with you,robert.
You never hear me when I speak, and you're better at debate than I am,so why not spare ourselves? Can we go inside?Because I think mrs.
Anderson is probably shooting photos for the "inquirer" as we speak.
You don't have anything to be afraid of.
I'm giving an honest account of what it means to be the wife of a politician.
What,you expect me simply to be invisible? You gave up honesty the day you accused me of screwing the nanny.
Well,I don't know what happened.
You refused to talk about it.
You refused to talk about anything except your career, when you were even here,which was rarely.
So you're gonna go on television and play the victim and search for a book deal? It is so cynical.
I am asking you what if you don't win the nomination? You taught me that timing is everything,and it's a good story,right? The dutiful political wife giving luncheons and speeches, helping brand your mythology.
I listened to you.
I advised you,and you dropped me.
Is this the same self-justification you're gonna use when our children are old enough to know that you lied? Well,they'll have kitty mccallister by then,so what does it matter? You know,you are not just slinging mud at me.
You are completely defiling yourself.
D I know you.
You won't be able to live with it.
Well,it can't be any worse than what I've lived with till now.
- Why couldn't we go to a nice museum? - I know.
- You hate golf.
- I don't hate golf.
I loathe it.
I despise it.
I would rather spend all eternity at a dinner party seated next to britney spears than waste an afternoon lugging clubs around a bunch of overfed, overprivileged arnold palmer wannabes,but for you,I'll swallow it.
Oh,except I have to spend time with this putz.
If you weren't here as a buffer,I would wrap my 9-iron around his neck.
Do it now and I'll spot you three strokes.
yes!That's what I'm talkin' about.
- you boys are goin' down.
- Yeah,make it four.
Buck up,son.
We'll find something you're good at.
you know what,ben?Your folksy shtick,it's it's getting a little bit old.
So,uh,we're being honest now,are we? - Yeah.
You bet.
- Then open your eyes.
- Julia's in trouble.
- You've been here 24 hours, and you think you know what's going on? E calls us most every night,sobbing.
- Did you know that? - Of course I know that.
- She's my wife.
- Then help her.
- What's going on,tommy? - We're leaving.
Now.
Look,I want you out of my house,tonight.
Oh,you got that right,tom.
And since you can't take care of your family, I'm taking julia and lizzie with me.
when did you start taking pictures? This summer,right after my sculpture phase, but right before dabbling in french.
It's quite impressive.
you know,I tried to,um I tried to imagine what it was like out there for you.
I just couldn't see it.
Even when I saw news footage,it just didn't seem real.
Yeah.
If you ever need to talk - can we get the check? - Yeah.
I was talking to your mom.
She's worried about you.
She's really worried about your pain level.
I know,but you know what?I had surgery.
I'm gonna feel pain.
Yeah,but there wouldn't be if you took the pain medication they prescribed for you.
Thank you very much.
- Oh.
- I'll get that.
- ah!Ah! - justin? Justin,whatwhat happened? What can I do? - Okay,ready? - Yeah.
- One,two,three.
- Careful.
Careful.
Careful.
- I'm sorry.
- oh,god.
Okay.
Just try to get some rest,okay? nora?Nora,are you mad at me? I didn't say that.
You are.
You're mad at me.
That's what my mom does when she's mad at me.
You took him out without his wheelchair.
I was trying to talk to him about the painkillers likeou asked me to.
Remember "operation nora"? Operation nora was,"hey,justin,"why don't we wheel into the living om " so I might discuss with you the advantages of the pain medication? " Operation nora was not a trip downtown.
Oh,'cause you think that's what I was trying to achieve today, - him having an attack like that? - Well,what were you thinking? Oh,I don't know.
Maybe get his mind off of things a little bit? Remind him that his life can be fun? It won't be fun again for a very,very long time.
Okay,you know what?I was trying to help you.
I'm sorry if I didn't do it exactly the way you wanted me to.
Maybe you should write me a script next time.
- That's not fair.
- Well,I'm trying.
- None of this is my fault.
- Yes,iis some of it.
A little of it.
I'm sorry.
Oh,I'm sorry.
I'm not mad at you.
God,I'm not mad at you.
II'm mad at everyone else.
I'm still mad at justin for signing up.
I'mI'm mad at his dead father for letting him go even though begged him not to.
Even last year, even with william's death,amidst it all,tre was always this sense of of reason to it.
But not with this.
This time there's only pain.
That's why I want him to take his medication.
The only good that will come out of any of this is when it finally stops.
let me pull another one for you,okay? Come on in.
It's all right.
Don't be afraid.
Uh,areare we allowed to be in here? 'Cause usually 5-star restaurants don't like the patrons entering through the alleyway.
Actually,the restaurant is closed for another hour.
Please have a seat.
And a nice white burgundy for you while I work.
- You work here? - I am still a cater waiter.
I am still dirt poor,but I have been putting myself through chef school in pasadena.
I came in top of my ass and won an internship here as apprentice sous chef.
The lobster ravioli in a meyer lemon and butter emulsion on a bed of sauteed baby watercress and fried capers.
You made this? Kevin,in less than an hour, people will pour through those doors,and this place will be a madhouse until midnight.
And then the staff,totally wired and really beat,we have some wine.
See,I wasn't drunk.
It was the end of my first month here,and I was really happy because I was changing my life.
So thank you.
To changing our lives.
Americans need a new kind of leadership - bold,modern and traditional - how bad was it? I had frostbite.
I could've used a parka.
What are you thinking? Well,I'm not gonna stand around on the sidelines and watch.
- You're gonna go see her.
- Ye,I am.
Look around,robert.
We're in an auditorium full of high school teachers.
They're not gonna elect henry viii as president.
No,I'm going to do my job.
But I I'm sorry,but I need to ask you.
The nanny storyis it ever gonna blow up in our face? I told you the first time it came up.
- No.
- with that,ladies and gentlemen - okay? - I give you the next leader of the free world - now let me go talk to these teachers.
- An america hero senator robert mccallister! thank you.
Oh,so get this.
Your dad was to take you and elizabeth home, and not just for the weekend.
I think it's a good idea.
Just for a while.
- I can clear my head.
- Clear it of what? Please try and understand.
it'll be easier this way.
I know it doesn't seem fair or rational - what do you mean? - I can't,tommy.
It's too hard.
What's too hard,julia?What?What are you talkin' about? William's death.
You pressured me to go to the vineyard that day.
And at the hospital,I'd just had the babies.
I needed some time,and you kept pressing me for a decision.
And I didn't know what to do.
- So you decided that - that is not true,julia.
- We decided together.
- Okay,I know,I know,I know it's crazy.
I do,okay?But I can't help it.
I blame you,tommy.
I want to get past this.
I think if I go away,I'll be able to put it in perspective.
You think? I need this.
Otherwise we're not gonna make it.
I am so impressed at how you've pulled your life together.
Does this mean I can't tease you anymore? No,please,never stop teasing me.
It is gonna take a lot of meals like this for you to pay your legal bill,sir.
That's fine by me.
- You know what?I I'm justI mean - oh.
Oh,god.
No.
- I'm sorry.
- No,no,no.
- Scotty,scotty,I'm in a relationship.
- Oh! Oh,so I guess I'mot the only one who's changed.
Who? Uh,he'she's the the brother of my sister's fiance, and it's,you know,it's - the minister? - Yeah.
Oh,god.
Wow.
Where's his church? Uh,malaysia.
Excuse me?Rtesia? Malaysia,on an island called,um, tioman,uh,which you might recognize from the movie "south pacific.
" So he's really available.
You know,tioman is famous for,uh, the red flying squirrels and,um,the the slow loris and the walking catfish.
Well,I'm really happy for you all of you,including the catfish.
- I'm sorry.
- Yeah,me,too.
Um,I should probably get back to work.
It's about to get busy,and I need some time to poach my fool head in vermouth.
You know,it's it's just timing.
Thank you.
- how bad is it? - It's pretty bad.
Honey,I wish you'd reconsider.
Don't you think I want to take the pills,mom? Then why don't you? the doctors have said we could monitor the dosage.
We'd be very careful.
Don't you get it?I'm lucky.
My friends are dying over there,mom.
I got off easy.
Are you punishing yourself? I don't know.
I don't know what I'm doing,mom.
I don't know.
Listen to me.
No one,no one wants you to hurt any more than you have to.
You didn't create this war.
The fact that you're here alive and someone else isn't it isn't fair,it's awful,but it's a gift.
- It hurts so much.
- I know.
- I know.
I know.
I know.
- It hurts so bad.
I'm here.
I'll do whatever you want.
I want you to fill the prescription.
Okay.
I already called it in.
I just have to pick it up.
Of course you did.
That's not surprising.
- It'll be okay.
- Okay.
- Scotty,Iwait - kevin,I am so working right now.
I can't talk.
- I'm sorry I made assumptions - stop,okay?Listen.
Wewe were never friends.
We jt went straight to being lovers,then fighters.
And seeing as the only gay friends I have are my sisters, maybe we could try that.
Kevin if I don't get this perfectly cooked piece of copper river salmon to david beckham at table three, you'll have to hire me as your personal chef.
- He's here? - Yes.
I'll call you later.
- Now go.
- Okay.
I have one mine for you,miss walker.
I have to finish baking a rhubarb cherry pie for the sidwell friends school auction.
I just don't understand why you're doing this.
This is about identity.
You see?Mine,not his.
You actually have no idea what it's like,do you, To have your whole life with someone erased to be by his side and,uh, and to have given up some very real part of yourself, your own dreams,so that your mate can save the world.
I'm not here to get into the middle of your relationship with robert.
I just wanted to let you know that I found bridget the nanny and for the record,yes,she did love robert just as she loved you and just as she loved your children.
And just so you and i are utterly clear, she's willing to tell the truth.
And I just thought maybeou would wa that information on the eve of your presentation.
Thank you for your time,and,uh say hi to larry.
You think you're his partner?Nobody's his partner.
He does it all alone.
I'll let myself out.
Tommy.
What are you doing here? I had to,uh,grab some stuff to, uh,bring back to the vineyard,and,uh, - I had to get out of that house - why? Did something else happen? Julia wants to take the baby and go home with her parents to arizona.
Come on,tommy,that can't be julia.
It's got to be her son-of-a-bitch father.
No.
It's her.
- Apparently,she blames me for william's death.
- What? She came right out andandand said it.
But we both made that decision.
We both did,and and now,saul,she's furious at me for some revised version of the truth.
She's grieving,tommy.
Fine,but do you know how I deal with my grief? I focus on julia and elizabeth.
All day I think about coming home to them.
Yeah,but that's how you're getting through this,tomm she can't do it your way.
Great,so what do you want me to do,justjust sit back andand watch her go? Well,maybe you have to find it in you to let her grieve her way.
I don't know if I can.
I don't know.
I know that we can get equal time on larry, but we may have to do one of the morning shows, depending on whatever it is she actually says.
- Why are you not worried? - I-i am worried.

You are part of the family,rebecca.
