Previously on "Ordinary Joe"
I can't have kids.
Look, if it's a dealbreaker, I
No chance.
I have a chance to be reinstated,
and it would really be helpful
if you would speak on my behalf.
But you're still drinking.
We've gone so far down a wrong path.
It's pretty clear we've
come to the end of it.
There are a lot of smart people
trying to help your mom.
So hopefully, she'll be back home soon.
I never should have talked
to that guy at the shelter.
I told him about school,
and now my mom's in prison.
Oh, I just loved your application.
Your story about kid-sitting
your friend's son and
That's our godson, Christopher.
He's one of the reasons
why we're adopting in the first place.
You also forced me
out of my comfort zone
into something better.
You make me better.
- I'm sorry.
- No, no, no, it's my fault.
No.
- You okay?
- Mm.
I'm sorry. That shouldn't have happened.
We can do this.
Come on, come on, come on.
Three.
You keep going, baby. It's
gonna be out at any time.
Oh, it has to.
Do you think that really helps?
Gravity opens up the pelvis
so the baby can descend
into the birth canal.
Hey. Little late for a workout, huh?
- Hey. What's up, man?
- All right, man.
I'm glad Lucas is doing good.
Thanks. Hey, Mal. How you feeling?
Like I'll be pregnant
until the end of time.
- Whoo.
- And these exercises
are shockingly exhausting.
- Yeah.
- Nine. Ten.
Okay. Whoo. Break time.
Yeah, come sit. Relax.
Let me help you down.
No, no. You were
doing so great, okay?
Hey, sweetie, she's tired.
She just said, "I want a break."
- I'll do it with you.
- Okay.
I know what's going on here.
- What?
- What's happening?
You two are just trying to win that bet
on when baby Payne will arrive.
- No!
- We wouldn't do that.
Amy, you voted for today.
That's why you're hurrying me up.
And you voted for some time next week.
Not just any day, okay?
First of all, it was Valentine's Day
because I'm a hopeless romantic.
Oh, please. You just wanna win $200.
Last pie of the night.
- Excuse me.
- La suprema deluxe de la casa.
- Oh, I look at that pizza.
- Nice. Thank you.
Oh, for family only, y'all.
This baby needs to come, stat.
Do you know that my extended
family has been staying with us
since the due date,
which was a week ago?
Six people, two bedrooms.
Never get a spare bedroom in New York.
People will come and
they will never leave.
That is why I have a tiny apartment
so that when my family comes to visit,
they stay in a hotel.
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
- My God.
- Oh, wow.
- Is that is that your water?
- Oh, my.
- Whoa.
- Oh, my.
Okay, you gotta call the ambulance.
We are prepared for this.
We got this together, okay, baby?
- Call the ambulance!
- It's gonna happen.
- Call the ambulance, man.
- I got a playlist.
- What am I forgetting?
- Okay, where's the bag?
- Where's the bag?
- Call the ambulance.
- Ooh.
- Oh!
Suckers!
Oh, that ain't funny.
Look, I might be a
million years pregnant
but I can still do a prank.
- That's not funny.
- That's ain't cool.
Not funny.
Oh, my God.
Joe! Joe, are you okay?
Joe. Oh, my God. Joe!
No! Joe!
Help! Help!
Somebody help us!
What'd you do to my car, son?
Dad?
Driving drunk, cheating on Amy.
This isn't the Joe I know.
I don't know what happened.
Life threw you off track
and into a tree.
Help me.
What do we got?
Suspected drunk driver,
straight into a tree.
Car's completely totaled.
He's lucky he's still alive.
- Let's get him to imaging.
- All right.
We're gonna put him bay
one. Let's go. Ready?
Pupils filly dilated.
Blunt-force trauma to the head.
This isn't the Joe I know.
Oh, my gosh, is this Joe Kimbreau?
Think so.
That's too bad. Look at that hand.
Notify next of kin.
Did you hear what I said, Eric?
I am the worst person.
Stop self-flagellating. Relax.
- You want some coffee?
- I basically cheated on Jenny.
No, you did not cheat on Jenny.
Hey Amy, if you saw Eric
kiss some random woman
This is the adoption lawyer.
- I gotta take this.
- No, no, no. Yeah, go. Go.
- Oh, man.
- Hello, this is Amy.
Basically, you know, Kinsley came over
and, you know, it was snowing,
so I told her she could stay
and we ended up having
some drinks on the couch.
- Stay over?
- Look, the point is,
is that she just made
me feel good, right?
She inspired me these last few weeks.
And as soon as she saw
those dumb zipper pants,
she, like, saw a whole new product.
She saw a whole new company,
man, a whole new me.
Okay, that sounds like validation.
It does not mean that you two
are in love with each other, okay?
Right. I'm not. I'm
not in love with her.
- It's it's a feeling, right?
- Yes.
It's that feeling I should
be feeling with Jenny.
You two are living over FaceTime.
It's not sustainable, right? So
So what am I supposed to do about it?
Do something romantic.
Valentine's Day is a few
days from now, okay?
We have not missed
a Valentine's Day
together since college.
All right, all right.
Don't break that streak. Keep it going.
Yeah, but there's Chris
and there's school.
Make a road trip out
of it. Bring him along.
A father-son buddy film. Go for it.
- A road trip?
- Yes.
- To Atlanta.
- Uh-huh.
Thank you. Yes, we'll talk soon.
- Okay.
- Okay.
- Okay.
- Tamara picked us.
She's going to give
birth in a couple days.
We're gonna be parents.
Are you kidding?
Oh, baby!
What what the hell happened?
He's up. Hey.
Oh, my God.
Is anyone hurt?
Oh, my God.
Is Dionne okay?
Yeah. She's gonna be fine.
Doctors released her this morning.
- Oh.
- And no one else was hurt.
Yeah, that crush was pretty bad.
You scared us all, man.
Joe, I know you don't want to hear
Amy, stop, please.
It was a blizzard, okay?
I got in a car crash in a blizzard.
- Yeah, you were drunk.
- I was
I had a few drinks. I wasn't drunk.
Can you give us a couple
of minutes, please?
Yeah.
Amy, come on.
I really don't wanna do this right now.
Dionne? Really?
Your personal trainer?
That's so cliché.
Whatever you have to do
to spin this for your
campaign, I'm fine with it.
I don't care about any of that.
Joe, whatever happens with our marriage,
I love you.
I don't want you to die.
I'm not trying to kill myself.
It sure seems like it.
Police brutality. Racial profiling.
For some people, these
are just buzzwords,
but for my family, they're real,
which is why I've invited my family
to be my first guests on my new podcast,
"Chasing Justice."
Papi, will you start us off?
Please welcome Riel Kindelán.
I spent two years in prison
for a crime I didn't commit,
all because an angry
cop abused his power.
When my dad was in prison,
every way I can show Come on guys.
- Is that okay?
- It's okay.
We can edit it out.
When my dad was in prison,
every way that I can
show him love was cut off.
- I mean, the prison guards
- Shh.
Threw away a card that I got him
because it had glitter on it.
And they wouldn't let us
bring him any food from home.
It was inhumane.
What about the racist cop
who started all of this?
Officer Evans?
He saw my father, a brown man,
and assumed that he was a criminal,
and he was never punished for that.
Oh, no, he's actually
running for city commissioner
of Miami's District One.
We see his ads everywhere.
- And he has a lot of support.
- Mm-hmm.
The same man who kept us apart.
I really wish there was
something we could do about it.
Well, there is. We could protest.
Raise money for his opponent.
He's running unopposed.
Well, then we find
someone to run against him.
I heard you needed a lawyer.
I needed a friend.
I can't deal with the
team of suits right now.
Well, I don't practice criminal law,
but my associate Deborah does.
So a DUI with injury.
The passenger will probably sue,
but we'll cross that bridge.
Now, you are a celebrity,
so the judge is likely to
make an example out of you.
Luckily, I am friends
with the Cayuga County ADA,
and she's willing to deal.
I can get you probation
instead of jail time
if you agree to rehab.
No.
- Shows initial remorse.
- No, no. No rehab, okay?
Can't I just pay a fine or something?
I have a tour to get back to.
Thought the tour was canceled.
Whatever. I don't need rehab.
Why don't I give you two a minute?
Sure.
Thanks.
Joe, I was I was wrong
not to tell you about
the pregnancy after college.
And I was wrong again ten
years later when I did.
Joe, if that caused whatever
you're going through right now,
I apologize.
It didn't.
And I'm not mad at you.
I wish you would've told me
so I could have supported you.
Well, I'm sorry I never
gave you that chance.
Maybe we'd be Zeke Turner's parents.
Who knows?
But those years after graduation
they were the worst years of my life.
My mom died.
And I had Zeke and I
gave him to the Turners
and then I went to law school.
Ten year plan, right?
But I couldn't do it. I couldn't study.
I couldn't go to class.
I couldn't get out of bed.
They put me on academic probation.
Probation. Me, the former valedictorian.
And that spring,
I took a leave of absence
and went home.
And my dad, he
He asked how he could help me,
and I couldn't even admit
that something was wrong.
It took me two months to ask for help.
I had to want to live.
And you need to want that too, Joe.
Hey, buddy. Lookit, traffic's moving.
It's grooving. Let's
have a little smile, huh?
Dad, what's really going on?
What do you mean?
Why are you in such a crazy rush
to see Mom all of a sudden?
Did you tell her about Kinsley?
What do you mean, tell her about her?
That you guys just sold
your company to Berman's?
Oh. Yes, no, I haven't yet.
I wanna tell her in
person on Valentine's Day
just 'cause we've
missed so many holidays
together already, you know?
She was just here for Christmas.
Yeah, but that's not enough.
That's not enough time.
I miss her still. Don't you?
Yeah, but I also have school.
Our class is watching the SpaceX launch
and learning about rocket propulsion.
I don't wanna miss that.
I know, bud, but lookit,
this is your mom's first big trial,
and that's educational and it's family.
I've already learned
that I can spend an hour
trying to get on the bridge
and still see my house
in the rearview mirror.
So tell me, how did
the podcast go today?
I know that Amy was really excited
to have such great guests
for her first episode.
It was good. Cathartic.
Thought-provoking.
- Thank you.
- Very thought-provoking.
Amy, you've always inspired me.
And you were the only
one who could talk me
into running for the school board.
And she was only ten years old.
She beat my best friend Christy's mom.
Christy never spoke to me again.
So I I decided to
run for city commissioner
against the corrupt cop
that arrested your father.
Mom, that's amazing.
It's an opportunity to show
the world who this man is.
- Mm-hmm.
- And who we are.
You'll be incredible, mi alma.
So how can we support you?
Money, Joseph.
Politicians only want money.
I will be your first donor.
- Oh, okay!
- Wow.
Wepa, wepa, wepa!
- Salud, salud.
- AquÃ.
- Cheers.
- Cheers.
You sure you don't want some wine?
Oh, I'd love to, but
I'm about to be on duty.
I got you.
Yeah.
Thanks.
Now we gotta take you
to the police station.
It's just a formality.
They wanna take your
picture like everyone else.
We love you!
Thank you.
- Hey.
- Hey.
I wanna show you
something before we leave.
Okay.
I saw him, Uncle Frank.
Dad, at the car crash.
I, uh
I know it wasn't him, but
it looked so real.
Oh, my God. Is this ours?
Snagged it before the department
had it auctioned off for scrap.
- Does it run?
- Not yet.
But if you help me,
we can have her purring
by the time you get
your driver's license.
A Porsche.
Are you kidding me?
I've always wanted one.
Yeah, me too.
But on a cop salary, it would
take me another 20 years,
so we have to build our own.
Maybe you'll be able to hand it down
to your kid one day.
Here.
Hang this on the rearview.
That's Saint Christopher.
So he's with you wherever you go.
He ever tell you the whole
story behind this car?
Just said he got it through the NYPD.
Yeah.
It'd been in a single-car accident.
DUI.
Driver got jail time, had
to surrender the vehicle.
Your old man, he'd been
drinking a lot back then.
This car, somehow, it changed him.
He started to focus all of
his addictive personality
into fixing it up instead of drinking.
He got himself clean.
And you and him working on it together,
that really helped him, Joey.
I wish he would've told me that.
Yeah, we're not so big
on talking about things.
Yeah.
You know, if your pops was here,
he'd probably tell you
the same thing I'm gonna.
Go to rehab, Joey.
Go to rehab.
I'll go.
I'll go.
I never thought my daughter would date
a man in blue, Joe.
Well, I understand how
you feel, Riel, I truly do.
Amy told me the whole story,
and that officer should
have been charged.
I know you're nothing
like that officer, Joe.
Absolutely not.
But surely your precinct
has bad officers
like the one who assaulted me.
How does a good guy like you justify
working in a place like that?
- Papi.
- That's a good question.
I'm not blindly loyal to the uniform.
So if I see something, I speak up.
Amy tells me you're
considering testifying
on behalf of your uncle
for his reinstatement.
Okay, that was way different.
And you know what?
That was a long time ago.
I mean, he did it, right?
Whatever he's been accused of?
Technically, yes, but
it's it's complicated.
The truth is never complicated.
He's family.
One day, I might be family too.
- I'm so sorry.
- No, I'm sorry.
I think I made things
uncomfortable for your family.
- It's fine.
- Okay.
- Be safe.
- Okay.
Really?
What was that all about?
Amy, I
Your father and I were talking earlier,
and we're wondering,
is Joe the only thing
keeping you here in New York?
I live here.
But why do you live here?
You're a waitress at a pizza shop.
You can't afford your rent.
And the local Democratic Party
has essentially blackballed you.
Why not come home?
Ay, Mom, stop, please, okay?
You could have your dream job in Miami.
Be my campaign manager.
Our family united against the man
who tried to destroy us.
We can't lose.
Not with you by my side.
Hey, bud, you haven't said a word
since we crossed into Maryland.
I don't know. I just feel bad.
If we flew, we would
have been there by now
and had all that extra time with mom.
Yeah, sure, but airlines are idiots.
They destroy, like,
10,000 power chairs a year.
We can't risk that, so,
you know, we're driving.
No biggie.
How am I gonna fly into space
if I can't even fly on a regular plane?
I mean, you saw "The Right Stuff."
Their training's insane.
Okay, first of all, that was a movie.
Based on a nonfiction book.
Okay, sure, but it was
set, like, 60 years ago.
Astronauts don't train
like that anymore.
Yeah, but still, just doesn't
Look, Chris, right now, it may be hard
for a disabled person
to travel into space,
but it doesn't mean that
it's always gonna be that way.
Who knows?
I mean, Stephen Hawking
took a zero-gravity flight.
So maybe one day, you will
design an adaptive spaceship
just like we designed
those adaptive zipper pants.
You gotta dream big, Chris.
Life is full of endless possibilities.
Like french fries. You
want some french fries?
- You read my mind.
- Yeah, baby.
Good morning.
And a good morning to you, Ms. Banks.
Is everything okay?
I still feel kind of embarrassed
about the way I acted the other night.
I don't know what got into me.
Hey, we all gotta blow
off some steam sometimes.
Game time.
- Hey, good morning.
- Good morning.
Good morning.
Hi.
Hi.
It's gonna be okay.
One day at a time, kid.
You sound like a greeting card.
It's not your fault.
We just want you to get better.
I am so sorry.
The investigator's
so-called new evidence
came out of nowhere.
This isn't your fault.
You got the investigator to confess
to violating Marilyn and Misty's rights,
got the judge to throw out
Misty's interview, and then
And then we learned
that we can never get too comfortable.
We've got to come up
with a new legal strategy,
or our client goes back to jail.
What about jury nullification?
It's quite a Hail Mary.
On closing, we appeal
to the jury's humanity,
their sense of justice.
We get the jury to agree
that the law is unjust,
Marilyn goes free.
Okay, that's our new strategy, then.
I'll do the closing tomorrow.
Wait.
Can I still do it?
I discovered the investigator's
violation of Misty's rights,
I got the judge to rule to
dismiss Misty's testimony,
and, more importantly, I'm a mom.
I have a kid practically the same age.
I know what Marylin is going through.
Let me convince the jury.
Well, you just convinced me.
Hey, wake up, sleepyhead.
Huh? You slept hard in there.
- Where are we?
- I don't know.
Why don't you take a look for yourself?
Am I still dreaming,
or are we at
the Wallops Island Spaceport
in Virginia?
'Cause that looks a lot
like the SpaceX Falcon 9.
Well, I couldn't let my son
miss out on learning about propulsion,
and I realized that the SpaceX launch
was on our way over,
and now you get to see it in person,
which I think is way better
than watching it on TV
in Mrs. Durkin's class.
I love you, Dad.
I love you too.
Five, four, three,
two, one!
I'm here today to speak
on the fitness of my uncle,
I'm here today to speak
on the fitness of my uncle,
Frank Kimbreau, as it relates
to his possible reinstatement.
Officer Frank Kimbreau is a
good man and a good officer.
Always has been.
But in the aftermath of
the tragic events of 9/11
when his brother, my father,
officer Christopher Kimbreau was killed,
he fell prey to his demons.
He had what my grandmother
used to call "the allergy."
He's an addict.
But in the decades since then,
he has worked hard to kick that allergy
and to become the type of officer
that this department can be proud of.
And he's been successful doing that.
But those demons are back.
And as much as I would
like to sit up here
and say exactly
what he wants me to say,
I do not think that my uncle is fit
to return to active duty.
Not yet.
Not now.
He needs help first.
Thank you.
Good afternoon.
In a few minutes,
the judge is going to instruct you
to only follow the letter of the law
as you deliberate.
Thing is, this case is about more
than the letter of the law.
It's about a single mom, Marylin.
Last year, Marilyn lost
her husband to COVID.
And despite working two jobs,
she and her daughter ended up homeless.
But to keep one thing
normal for her daughter,
Marylin decided to
keep Misty in the school
that she had been attending
since the age of five,
where everyone already knew her as Mimi
and where the lunch staff
knew to give her a special meal
for her peanut allergy
and where she spent afternoons
with her best friends in the math club.
They're gonna say that this is a crime,
but I say this is just being a good mom.
I have a son that's
close in age to Misty,
and, God forbid, I was
to face a similar dilemma,
I know I would do
the exact same thing Marylin did.
Marilyn Harris did nothing wrong.
So as you consider the evidence,
consider this:
is it a crime to love one's child
and want to give them a better life?
Thank you.
We have made a decision.
Officer Kimbreau, please rise.
Officer Frank Kimbreau
will be reinstated
pending his completion
of a 30-day alcohol
rehabilitation program.
Joe.
Joe, look at me.
Hey, I don't wanna do
this right now, okay?
- I did what I thought was right.
- Just shut up.
It's not your fault, okay?
I just want you to get
the help that you need.
Yeah, I know you do, kid.
I know.
You gonna answer that?
- Hey, Eric, what's going on?
- Joe! Yes.
Mallory is going into labor right now.
- Now? Right now?
- It's coming!
- Right now, man.
- Just hang tight, okay?
I called an ambulance. It's delayed.
- I'll be right there, okay?
- Okay.
Well, there's traffic on 31st Street,
and there's a broken-down garbage truck.
It's blocking the whole street, okay?
Hey, hey. Just stay calm.
I'll be right there, okay?
Okay. Thank you, buddy. Thank you.
The baby's coming.
I'm gonna be an uncle.
They're stuck at the restaurant.
I gotta go. I gotta go.
All right, go, go, go, go, go.
I'll call ahead to the hospital.
Okay!
Will the defendant please rise?
In the case of the State
of Georgia v. Harris,
we, the jury, hereby find the defendant
not guilty on the charge
of criminal fraud.
One more time inhaling
the arms up overhead.
Exhaling back down into warrior two.
Inhale.
At any time taking your child's pose.
- Relaxing your breath.
- Making amends,
apologizing to the ones we've hurt,
no matter how small or how long ago,
is crucial to a successful recovery.
As addicts, we've all
made crappy decisions
that have hurt the ones we love.
And, you know, apologizing
for those decisions
will eventually put you on a path
to making better ones.
Listen, I've been thinking.
I'm not going back to New York.
I've decided to stay home in Atlanta.
Open my own firm with a mission
to service lower income neighborhoods,
- vulnerable populations.
- Wow.
Just like we did with this case.
It's inspired me. You've inspired me.
And, Jenny, I want you to be my partner.
- Me?
- Yeah.
- Your partner?
- Yeah.
Barrett, I haven't even
graduated law school.
I'm still a paralegal.
Yeah, who just won a jury
trial despite the fact
that the prosecution had
her client dead to rights.
You're a freaking rainmaker, Banks.
You could take the bar
exam right here in Georgia.
I'd have to talk to Joe and Chris.
Of course, of course. Talk to 'em.
Blankenship and Banks, huh?
It's got a nice ring to it.
I'll think about it.
You got this.
Okay, just keep breathing. You got it.
Doing great. You're doing so good.
- Where is this doctor?
- How far apart?
- 15 seconds.
- Okay.
- Should I get the doctor?
- Soon, okay?
- Is the epidural still working?
- Babe, the epidural is working, okay?
- Okay.
- Just breathe and be calm.
- Do you know this, though?
- Yes, I do.
- Okay.
- Ah.
Oh, oh.
Uh-oh. Uh-oh. This isn't good.
- This isn't good.
- I'm sure it's fine.
It's an alarm. You know
what an alarm means.
- It means that something is bad.
- Yes, because she's connected.
Honey, we need to be calm for her.
- Okay, okay, okay.
- Okay.
Normal deceleration of
the baby's heart rate.
- Okay, uh, yeah, I
- She wants out, mama.
Let's get you into
a better position, okay?
She's been here for this
has been going for an hour
Put your one foot up here
- and your other foot is here.
- Okay.
We're gonna start
pushing very soon, okay?
On the count of three.
Hey. Valentine's baby!
Oh, boy, you better cut
it with those pranks.
- Come on, get us out of here.
- All right, we're gonna go.
Joe, we're gonna be just fine.
- Yeah, we're gonna be great.
- Once I get in your car.
Which has the beautiful
emergency lights.
- Yeah.
- I'm gonna give birth
in my beautiful birthing
suite with my essential oils
and my cozy socks
and my birthing playli
Those were kind of close together.
Let's just keep moving, all right?
- Oh, no.
- What?
- It's happening.
- No, no, no, no.
- The baby.
- No, it's not happening
- Now! It's happening now!
- No, no, no!
Not right now. Honey, not now!
Get my birth playlist!
Get my birth playlist!
All right. This is happening.
This is happening.
- Right now?
- It's happening, yeah.
I need my John Legend!
I need my John Legend!
Mal, you got this, okay?
I want you to take a deep breath.
I'm right here with you, baby.
- I'm right here.
- Is that how they taught you?
I'm a cop. I am not a nurse.
- But I'm I got you.
- I need my John Legend!
No, I need my John Legend!
- Just breathe right now.
- She needs her John Legend.
- Upstairs, man!
- Okay.
Give me your hands! Give me your hands!
My head's underwater
But I'm feeling fine
You got this. You got this.
You're crazy, but I'm
- Deep breath. Deep breath.
- Out of my mind
You're not crazy, baby.
'Cause all of me loves
You're doing great. Okay.
- All of you
- Perfect.
All your curves and all your edges
One breath, one breath.
One, two, three. One, two, three.
All
- Of you
- You got it, baby.
One more. One more. You got this.
- Come on. Just one more.
- Okay, one, two, three.
Oh, my God!
Keep pushing now! Keep pushing.
My God, I am pushing!
You got it, babe. Here it comes.
- One more. One, two, three.
- Ready? Three, two, one.
I give you all
- You got it!
- There you go.
Good?
You did it. You did it.
- Is she here?
- Yes, she's right here.
Let me see her.
She's right here.
- Oh, my God. Oh, my.
- She's perfect.
Oh, my. Oh, my.
Wow, so tiny.
We did it.
- Oh, you got her?
- Yeah. Beautiful.
I got her.
- Aw.
- Yeah.
- Aw.
- Yeah.
Joe?
Where'd the godfather go?
- Hey. He's right back there.
- Right here.
- Hey.
- Hey.
- It's your turn.
- Yeah?
- Yes.
- All right.
Be careful.
- Are you ready for this?
- I'm ready for this.
All right. Here we go.
There you go.
Ah. Wow.
- Pretty cool.
- Yeah.
I have so many stories
to tell you about your dad
and how I made him
the man that he is today.
That's a lot of confidence right there.
- Never misses a beat.
- I'm just kidding.
Your dad is the man by himself.
And his wife.
- Hi.
- Hey.
- Hey.
- Hey.
A baby.
Can you believe this?
Oh, here, I brought you your slippers.
Thank you very much.
Here you go. How are you feeling?
I'm okay.
- Congratulations, guys.
- Thank you.
Joe's a natural.
Wanna hold the baby?
- Please.
- Go for it.
- Here you go.
- Yeah.
You got it.
Yeah.
Oh, hey, man.
Sorry to hear your wife's gonna lose.
I really liked her.
Hey, I got a question for you.
I'm trying to get out of here.
Do you know where I can
find a phone to make a call?
You ran a great campaign.
Thanks.
Are you gonna be okay?
Yeah. I'll be fine.
Okay.
Okay. Thank you.
This is it.
Yes, it is. You ready?
I'm ready.
- Happy Valentine's!
- Surprise!
Oh, my God. Joe. Chris.
Oh! Did you grow?
Yeah, he did.
We got tired of living
our lives over FaceTime.
And we decided that when
we're together as a family,
that's when we're on the right path.
Wow, thank you.
Jenny.
Let's renew our vows.
The baby just dropped.
It was incredible.
I wish you could have seen it.
Joe, I want to tell you something.
I'm gonna run my mother's
campaign for city commissioner.
That's great.
I'm moving to Miami.
Miami?
I work at a pizza shop.
I can barely afford my apartment,
and my career's on pause
for who knows how long.
The plan was always
to move back to Miami.
What about us?
Amy, listen to me.
What's back there in that
room with Eric and Mal,
that love and that
family, I want that, okay?
I want that, and I want it
with you, okay?
- Joe
- No, hear me out.
Marry me.
Marry me.
I have made so many
crappy choices in my life
that I wish I could undo.
What we have is so special, and
I turned my back on you
when you needed me the most.
I am so sorry.
All I can do now is fix it.
I do wanna live again,
with you.
Every bone in my body knows
that you are the one for me.
It's always been you.
I should've come to the lake house.
Let me make the right choice this time.
Please.
Every decision you make,
you write your own life story.
But you don't always get
to write your own ending.
All you can do is chase what you love
and see what's next.
Previously on "Ordinary Joe"
I can't have kids.
Look, if it's a dealbreaker, I
No chance.
I have a chance to be reinstated,
and it would really be helpful
if you would speak on my behalf.
But you're still drinking.
We've gone so far down a wrong path.
It's pretty clear we've
come to the end of it.
There are a lot of smart people
trying to help your mom.
So hopefully, she'll be back home soon.
I never should have talked
to that guy at the shelter.
I told him about school,
and now my mom's in prison.
Oh, I just loved your application.
Your story about kid-sitting
your friend's son and
That's our godson, Christopher.
He's one of the reasons
why we're adopting in the first place.
You also forced me
out of my comfort zone
into something better.
You make me better.
- I'm sorry.
- No, no, no, it's my fault.
No.
- You okay?
- Mm.
I'm sorry. That shouldn't have happened.
We can do this.
Come on, come on, come on.
Three.
You keep going, baby. It's
gonna be out at any time.
Oh, it has to.
Do you think that really helps?
Gravity opens up the pelvis
so the baby can descend
into the birth canal.
Hey. Little late for a workout, huh?
- Hey. What's up, man?
- All right, man.
I'm glad Lucas is doing good.
Thanks. Hey, Mal. How you feeling?
Like I'll be pregnant
until the end of time.
- Whoo.
- And these exercises
are shockingly exhausting.
- Yeah.
- Nine. Ten.
Okay. Whoo. Break time.
Yeah, come sit. Relax.
Let me help you down.
No, no. You were
doing so great, okay?
Hey, sweetie, she's tired.
She just said, "I want a break."
- I'll do it with you.
- Okay.
I know what's going on here.
- What?
- What's happening?
You two are just trying to win that bet
on when baby Payne will arrive.
- No!
- We wouldn't do that.
Amy, you voted for today.
That's why you're hurrying me up.
And you voted for some time next week.
Not just any day, okay?
First of all, it was Valentine's Day
because I'm a hopeless romantic.
Oh, please. You just wanna win $200.
Last pie of the night.
- Excuse me.
- La suprema deluxe de la casa.
- Oh, I look at that pizza.
- Nice. Thank you.
Oh, for family only, y'all.
This baby needs to come, stat.
Do you know that my extended
family has been staying with us
since the due date,
which was a week ago?
Six people, two bedrooms.
Never get a spare bedroom in New York.
People will come and
they will never leave.
That is why I have a tiny apartment
so that when my family comes to visit,
they stay in a hotel.
Oh, oh, oh, oh.
- My God.
- Oh, wow.
- Is that is that your water?
- Oh, my.
- Whoa.
- Oh, my.
Okay, you gotta call the ambulance.
We are prepared for this.
We got this together, okay, baby?
- Call the ambulance!
- It's gonna happen.
- Call the ambulance, man.
- I got a playlist.
- What am I forgetting?
- Okay, where's the bag?
- Where's the bag?
- Call the ambulance.
- Ooh.
- Oh!
Suckers!
Oh, that ain't funny.
Look, I might be a
million years pregnant
but I can still do a prank.
- That's not funny.
- That's ain't cool.
Not funny.
Oh, my God.
Joe! Joe, are you okay?
Joe. Oh, my God. Joe!
No! Joe!
Help! Help!
Somebody help us!
What'd you do to my car, son?
Dad?
Driving drunk, cheating on Amy.
This isn't the Joe I know.
I don't know what happened.
Life threw you off track
and into a tree.
Help me.
What do we got?
Suspected drunk driver,
straight into a tree.
Car's completely totaled.
He's lucky he's still alive.
- Let's get him to imaging.
- All right.
We're gonna put him bay
one. Let's go. Ready?
Pupils filly dilated.
Blunt-force trauma to the head.
This isn't the Joe I know.
Oh, my gosh, is this Joe Kimbreau?
Think so.
That's too bad. Look at that hand.
Notify next of kin.
Did you hear what I said, Eric?
I am the worst person.
Stop self-flagellating. Relax.
- You want some coffee?
- I basically cheated on Jenny.
No, you did not cheat on Jenny.
Hey Amy, if you saw Eric
kiss some random woman
This is the adoption lawyer.
- I gotta take this.
- No, no, no. Yeah, go. Go.
- Oh, man.
- Hello, this is Amy.
Basically, you know, Kinsley came over
and, you know, it was snowing,
so I told her she could stay
and we ended up having
some drinks on the couch.
- Stay over?
- Look, the point is,
is that she just made
me feel good, right?
She inspired me these last few weeks.
And as soon as she saw
those dumb zipper pants,
she, like, saw a whole new product.
She saw a whole new company,
man, a whole new me.
Okay, that sounds like validation.
It does not mean that you two
are in love with each other, okay?
Right. I'm not. I'm
not in love with her.
- It's it's a feeling, right?
- Yes.
It's that feeling I should
be feeling with Jenny.
You two are living over FaceTime.
It's not sustainable, right? So
So what am I supposed to do about it?
Do something romantic.
Valentine's Day is a few
days from now, okay?
We have not missed
a Valentine's Day
together since college.
All right, all right.
Don't break that streak. Keep it going.
Yeah, but there's Chris
and there's school.
Make a road trip out
of it. Bring him along.
A father-son buddy film. Go for it.
- A road trip?
- Yes.
- To Atlanta.
- Uh-huh.
Thank you. Yes, we'll talk soon.
- Okay.
- Okay.
- Okay.
- Tamara picked us.
She's going to give
birth in a couple days.
We're gonna be parents.
Are you kidding?
Oh, baby!
What what the hell happened?
He's up. Hey.
Oh, my God.
Is anyone hurt?
Oh, my God.
Is Dionne okay?
Yeah. She's gonna be fine.
Doctors released her this morning.
- Oh.
- And no one else was hurt.
Yeah, that crush was pretty bad.
You scared us all, man.
Joe, I know you don't want to hear
Amy, stop, please.
It was a blizzard, okay?
I got in a car crash in a blizzard.
- Yeah, you were drunk.
- I was
I had a few drinks. I wasn't drunk.
Can you give us a couple
of minutes, please?
Yeah.
Amy, come on.
I really don't wanna do this right now.
Dionne? Really?
Your personal trainer?
That's so cliché.
Whatever you have to do
to spin this for your
campaign, I'm fine with it.
I don't care about any of that.
Joe, whatever happens with our marriage,
I love you.
I don't want you to die.
I'm not trying to kill myself.
It sure seems like it.
Police brutality. Racial profiling.
For some people, these
are just buzzwords,
but for my family, they're real,
which is why I've invited my family
to be my first guests on my new podcast,
"Chasing Justice."
Papi, will you start us off?
Please welcome Riel Kindelán.
I spent two years in prison
for a crime I didn't commit,
all because an angry
cop abused his power.
When my dad was in prison,
every way I can show Come on guys.
- Is that okay?
- It's okay.
We can edit it out.
When my dad was in prison,
every way that I can
show him love was cut off.
- I mean, the prison guards
- Shh.
Threw away a card that I got him
because it had glitter on it.
And they wouldn't let us
bring him any food from home.
It was inhumane.
What about the racist cop
who started all of this?
Officer Evans?
He saw my father, a brown man,
and assumed that he was a criminal,
and he was never punished for that.
Oh, no, he's actually
running for city commissioner
of Miami's District One.
We see his ads everywhere.
- And he has a lot of support.
- Mm-hmm.
The same man who kept us apart.
I really wish there was
something we could do about it.
Well, there is. We could protest.
Raise money for his opponent.
He's running unopposed.
Well, then we find
someone to run against him.
I heard you needed a lawyer.
I needed a friend.
I can't deal with the
team of suits right now.
Well, I don't practice criminal law,
but my associate Deborah does.
So a DUI with injury.
The passenger will probably sue,
but we'll cross that bridge.
Now, you are a celebrity,
so the judge is likely to
make an example out of you.
Luckily, I am friends
with the Cayuga County ADA,
and she's willing to deal.
I can get you probation
instead of jail time
if you agree to rehab.
No.
- Shows initial remorse.
- No, no. No rehab, okay?
Can't I just pay a fine or something?
I have a tour to get back to.
Thought the tour was canceled.
Whatever. I don't need rehab.
Why don't I give you two a minute?
Sure.
Thanks.
Joe, I was I was wrong
not to tell you about
the pregnancy after college.
And I was wrong again ten
years later when I did.
Joe, if that caused whatever
you're going through right now,
I apologize.
It didn't.
And I'm not mad at you.
I wish you would've told me
so I could have supported you.
Well, I'm sorry I never
gave you that chance.
Maybe we'd be Zeke Turner's parents.
Who knows?
But those years after graduation
they were the worst years of my life.
My mom died.
And I had Zeke and I
gave him to the Turners
and then I went to law school.
Ten year plan, right?
But I couldn't do it. I couldn't study.
I couldn't go to class.
I couldn't get out of bed.
They put me on academic probation.
Probation. Me, the former valedictorian.
And that spring,
I took a leave of absence
and went home.
And my dad, he
He asked how he could help me,
and I couldn't even admit
that something was wrong.
It took me two months to ask for help.
I had to want to live.
And you need to want that too, Joe.
Hey, buddy. Lookit, traffic's moving.
It's grooving. Let's
have a little smile, huh?
Dad, what's really going on?
What do you mean?
Why are you in such a crazy rush
to see Mom all of a sudden?
Did you tell her about Kinsley?
What do you mean, tell her about her?
That you guys just sold
your company to Berman's?
Oh. Yes, no, I haven't yet.
I wanna tell her in
person on Valentine's Day
just 'cause we've
missed so many holidays
together already, you know?
She was just here for Christmas.
Yeah, but that's not enough.
That's not enough time.
I miss her still. Don't you?
Yeah, but I also have school.
Our class is watching the SpaceX launch
and learning about rocket propulsion.
I don't wanna miss that.
I know, bud, but lookit,
this is your mom's first big trial,
and that's educational and it's family.
I've already learned
that I can spend an hour
trying to get on the bridge
and still see my house
in the rearview mirror.
So tell me, how did
the podcast go today?
I know that Amy was really excited
to have such great guests
for her first episode.
It was good. Cathartic.
Thought-provoking.
- Thank you.
- Very thought-provoking.
Amy, you've always inspired me.
And you were the only
one who could talk me
into running for the school board.
And she was only ten years old.
She beat my best friend Christy's mom.
Christy never spoke to me again.
So I I decided to
run for city commissioner
against the corrupt cop
that arrested your father.
Mom, that's amazing.
It's an opportunity to show
the world who this man is.
- Mm-hmm.
- And who we are.
You'll be incredible, mi alma.
So how can we support you?
Money, Joseph.
Politicians only want money.
I will be your first donor.
- Oh, okay!
- Wow.
Wepa, wepa, wepa!
- Salud, salud.
- AquÃ.
- Cheers.
- Cheers.
You sure you don't want some wine?
Oh, I'd love to, but
I'm about to be on duty.
I got you.
Yeah.
Thanks.
Now we gotta take you
to the police station.
It's just a formality.
They wanna take your
picture like everyone else.
We love you!
Thank you.
- Hey.
- Hey.
I wanna show you
something before we leave.
Okay.
I saw him, Uncle Frank.
Dad, at the car crash.
I, uh
I know it wasn't him, but
it looked so real.
Oh, my God. Is this ours?
Snagged it before the department
had it auctioned off for scrap.
- Does it run?
- Not yet.
But if you help me,
we can have her purring
by the time you get
your driver's license.
A Porsche.
Are you kidding me?
I've always wanted one.
Yeah, me too.
But on a cop salary, it would
take me another 20 years,
so we have to build our own.
Maybe you'll be able to hand it down
to your kid one day.
Here.
Hang this on the rearview.
That's Saint Christopher.
So he's with you wherever you go.
He ever tell you the whole
story behind this car?
Just said he got it through the NYPD.
Yeah.
It'd been in a single-car accident.
DUI.
Driver got jail time, had
to surrender the vehicle.
Your old man, he'd been
drinking a lot back then.
This car, somehow, it changed him.
He started to focus all of
his addictive personality
into fixing it up instead of drinking.
He got himself clean.
And you and him working on it together,
that really helped him, Joey.
I wish he would've told me that.
Yeah, we're not so big
on talking about things.
Yeah.
You know, if your pops was here,
he'd probably tell you
the same thing I'm gonna.
Go to rehab, Joey.
Go to rehab.
I'll go.
I'll go.
I never thought my daughter would date
a man in blue, Joe.
Well, I understand how
you feel, Riel, I truly do.
Amy told me the whole story,
and that officer should
have been charged.
I know you're nothing
like that officer, Joe.
Absolutely not.
But surely your precinct
has bad officers
like the one who assaulted me.
How does a good guy like you justify
working in a place like that?
- Papi.
- That's a good question.
I'm not blindly loyal to the uniform.
So if I see something, I speak up.
Amy tells me you're
considering testifying
on behalf of your uncle
for his reinstatement.
Okay, that was way different.
And you know what?
That was a long time ago.
I mean, he did it, right?
Whatever he's been accused of?
Technically, yes, but
it's it's complicated.
The truth is never complicated.
He's family.
One day, I might be family too.
- I'm so sorry.
- No, I'm sorry.
I think I made things
uncomfortable for your family.
- It's fine.
- Okay.
- Be safe.
- Okay.
Really?
What was that all about?
Amy, I
Your father and I were talking earlier,
and we're wondering,
is Joe the only thing
keeping you here in New York?
I live here.
But why do you live here?
You're a waitress at a pizza shop.
You can't afford your rent.
And the local Democratic Party
has essentially blackballed you.
Why not come home?
Ay, Mom, stop, please, okay?
You could have your dream job in Miami.
Be my campaign manager.
Our family united against the man
who tried to destroy us.
We can't lose.
Not with you by my side.
Hey, bud, you haven't said a word
since we crossed into Maryland.
I don't know. I just feel bad.
If we flew, we would
have been there by now
and had all that extra time with mom.
Yeah, sure, but airlines are idiots.
They destroy, like,
10,000 power chairs a year.
We can't risk that, so,
you know, we're driving.
No biggie.
How am I gonna fly into space
if I can't even fly on a regular plane?
I mean, you saw "The Right Stuff."
Their training's insane.
Okay, first of all, that was a movie.
Based on a nonfiction book.
Okay, sure, but it was
set, like, 60 years ago.
Astronauts don't train
like that anymore.
Yeah, but still, just doesn't
Look, Chris, right now, it may be hard
for a disabled person
to travel into space,
but it doesn't mean that
it's always gonna be that way.
Who knows?
I mean, Stephen Hawking
took a zero-gravity flight.
So maybe one day, you will
design an adaptive spaceship
just like we designed
those adaptive zipper pants.
You gotta dream big, Chris.
Life is full of endless possibilities.
Like french fries. You
want some french fries?
- You read my mind.
- Yeah, baby.
Good morning.
And a good morning to you, Ms. Banks.
Is everything okay?
I still feel kind of embarrassed
about the way I acted the other night.
I don't know what got into me.
Hey, we all gotta blow
off some steam sometimes.
Game time.
- Hey, good morning.
- Good morning.
Good morning.
Hi.
Hi.
It's gonna be okay.
One day at a time, kid.
You sound like a greeting card.
It's not your fault.
We just want you to get better.
I am so sorry.
The investigator's
so-called new evidence
came out of nowhere.
This isn't your fault.
You got the investigator to confess
to violating Marilyn and Misty's rights,
got the judge to throw out
Misty's interview, and then
And then we learned
that we can never get too comfortable.
We've got to come up
with a new legal strategy,
or our client goes back to jail.
What about jury nullification?
It's quite a Hail Mary.
On closing, we appeal
to the jury's humanity,
their sense of justice.
We get the jury to agree
that the law is unjust,
Marilyn goes free.
Okay, that's our new strategy, then.
I'll do the closing tomorrow.
Wait.
Can I still do it?
I discovered the investigator's
violation of Misty's rights,
I got the judge to rule to
dismiss Misty's testimony,
and, more importantly, I'm a mom.
I have a kid practically the same age.
I know what Marylin is going through.
Let me convince the jury.
Well, you just convinced me.
Hey, wake up, sleepyhead.
Huh? You slept hard in there.
- Where are we?
- I don't know.
Why don't you take a look for yourself?
Am I still dreaming,
or are we at
the Wallops Island Spaceport
in Virginia?
'Cause that looks a lot
like the SpaceX Falcon 9.
Well, I couldn't let my son
miss out on learning about propulsion,
and I realized that the SpaceX launch
was on our way over,
and now you get to see it in person,
which I think is way better
than watching it on TV
in Mrs. Durkin's class.
I love you, Dad.
I love you too.
Five, four, three,
two, one!
I'm here today to speak
on the fitness of my uncle,
I'm here today to speak
on the fitness of my uncle,
Frank Kimbreau, as it relates
to his possible reinstatement.
Officer Frank Kimbreau is a
good man and a good officer.
Always has been.
But in the aftermath of
the tragic events of 9/11
when his brother, my father,
officer Christopher Kimbreau was killed,
he fell prey to his demons.
He had what my grandmother
used to call "the allergy."
He's an addict.
But in the decades since then,
he has worked hard to kick that allergy
and to become the type of officer
that this department can be proud of.
And he's been successful doing that.
But those demons are back.
And as much as I would
like to sit up here
and say exactly
what he wants me to say,
I do not think that my uncle is fit
to return to active duty.
Not yet.
Not now.
He needs help first.
Thank you.
Good afternoon.
In a few minutes,
the judge is going to instruct you
to only follow the letter of the law
as you deliberate.
Thing is, this case is about more
than the letter of the law.
It's about a single mom, Marylin.
Last year, Marilyn lost
her husband to COVID.
And despite working two jobs,
she and her daughter ended up homeless.
But to keep one thing
normal for her daughter,
Marylin decided to
keep Misty in the school
that she had been attending
since the age of five,
where everyone already knew her as Mimi
and where the lunch staff
knew to give her a special meal
for her peanut allergy
and where she spent afternoons
with her best friends in the math club.
They're gonna say that this is a crime,
but I say this is just being a good mom.
I have a son that's
close in age to Misty,
and, God forbid, I was
to face a similar dilemma,
I know I would do
the exact same thing Marylin did.
Marilyn Harris did nothing wrong.
So as you consider the evidence,
consider this:
is it a crime to love one's child
and want to give them a better life?
Thank you.
We have made a decision.
Officer Kimbreau, please rise.
Officer Frank Kimbreau
will be reinstated
pending his completion
of a 30-day alcohol
rehabilitation program.
Joe.
Joe, look at me.
Hey, I don't wanna do
this right now, okay?
- I did what I thought was right.
- Just shut up.
It's not your fault, okay?
I just want you to get
the help that you need.
Yeah, I know you do, kid.
I know.
You gonna answer that?
- Hey, Eric, what's going on?
- Joe! Yes.
Mallory is going into labor right now.
- Now? Right now?
- It's coming!
- Right now, man.
- Just hang tight, okay?
I called an ambulance. It's delayed.
- I'll be right there, okay?
- Okay.
Well, there's traffic on 31st Street,
and there's a broken-down garbage truck.
It's blocking the whole street, okay?
Hey, hey. Just stay calm.
I'll be right there, okay?
Okay. Thank you, buddy. Thank you.
The baby's coming.
I'm gonna be an uncle.
They're stuck at the restaurant.
I gotta go. I gotta go.
All right, go, go, go, go, go.
I'll call ahead to the hospital.
Okay!
Will the defendant please rise?
In the case of the State
of Georgia v. Harris,
we, the jury, hereby find the defendant
not guilty on the charge
of criminal fraud.
One more time inhaling
the arms up overhead.
Exhaling back down into warrior two.
Inhale.
At any time taking your child's pose.
- Relaxing your breath.
- Making amends,
apologizing to the ones we've hurt,
no matter how small or how long ago,
is crucial to a successful recovery.
As addicts, we've all
made crappy decisions
that have hurt the ones we love.
And, you know, apologizing
for those decisions
will eventually put you on a path
to making better ones.
Listen, I've been thinking.
I'm not going back to New York.
I've decided to stay home in Atlanta.
Open my own firm with a mission
to service lower income neighborhoods,
- vulnerable populations.
- Wow.
Just like we did with this case.
It's inspired me. You've inspired me.
And, Jenny, I want you to be my partner.
- Me?
- Yeah.
- Your partner?
- Yeah.
Barrett, I haven't even
graduated law school.
I'm still a paralegal.
Yeah, who just won a jury
trial despite the fact
that the prosecution had
her client dead to rights.
You're a freaking rainmaker, Banks.
You could take the bar
exam right here in Georgia.
I'd have to talk to Joe and Chris.
Of course, of course. Talk to 'em.
Blankenship and Banks, huh?
It's got a nice ring to it.
I'll think about it.
You got this.
Okay, just keep breathing. You got it.
Doing great. You're doing so good.
- Where is this doctor?
- How far apart?
- 15 seconds.
- Okay.
- Should I get the doctor?
- Soon, okay?
- Is the epidural still working?
- Babe, the epidural is working, okay?
- Okay.
- Just breathe and be calm.
- Do you know this, though?
- Yes, I do.
- Okay.
- Ah.
Oh, oh.
Uh-oh. Uh-oh. This isn't good.
- This isn't good.
- I'm sure it's fine.
It's an alarm. You know
what an alarm means.
- It means that something is bad.
- Yes, because she's connected.
Honey, we need to be calm for her.
- Okay, okay, okay.
- Okay.
Normal deceleration of
the baby's heart rate.
- Okay, uh, yeah, I
- She wants out, mama.
Let's get you into
a better position, okay?
She's been here for this
has been going for an hour
Put your one foot up here

- Okay.
We're gonna start
pushing very soon, okay?
On the count of three.
Hey. Valentine's baby!
Oh, boy, you better cut
it with those pranks.
- Come on, get us out of here.
- All right, we're gonna go.
Joe, we're gonna be just fine.
- Yeah, we're gonna be great.
- Once I get in your car.
Which has the beautiful
emergency lights.
- Yeah.
- I'm gonna give birth
in my beautiful birthing
suite with my essential oils
and my cozy socks
and my birthing playli
Those were kind of close together.
Let's just keep moving, all right?
- Oh, no.

- The baby.
- No, it's not happening
- Now! It's happening now!

Not right now. Honey, not now!
Get my birth playlist!
Get my birth playlist!
All right. This is happening.
This is happening.

- It's happening, yeah.
I need my John Legend!
I need my John Legend!
Mal, you got this, okay?
I want you to take a deep breath.
I'm right here with you, baby.

- Is that how they taught you?
I'm a cop. I am not a nurse.

My head's underwater
But I'm feeling fine

You're crazy, but I'm

'Cause all of me loves

Good?
You did it. You did it.

Let me see her.
She's right here.

- She's perfect.
Oh, my. Oh, my.
Wow, so tiny.
We did it.
- Oh, you got her?

I got her.

Where'd the godfather go?
- Hey. He's right back there.
- Right here.

- All right.
Be careful.
- Are you ready for this?
- I'm ready for this.
All right. Here we go.
There you go.
Ah. Wow.
- Pretty cool.
- Yeah.
I have so many stories
to tell you about your dad
and how I made him
the man that he is today.
That's a lot of confidence right there.
- Never misses a beat.
- I'm just kidding.
Your dad is the man by himself.
And his wife.
- Hi.
- Hey.
- Hey.
- Hey.
A baby.
Can you believe this?
Oh, here, I brought you your slippers.
Thank you very much.
Here you go. How are you feeling?
I'm okay.
- Congratulations, guys.
- Thank you.
Joe's a natural.
Wanna hold the baby?
- Please.
- Go for it.
- Here you go.
- Yeah.
You got it.
Yeah.
Oh, hey, man.
Sorry to hear your wife's gonna lose.
I really liked her.
Hey, I got a question for you.
I'm trying to get out of here.
Do you know where I can
find a phone to make a call?
You ran a great campaign.
Thanks.
Are you gonna be okay?
Yeah. I'll be fine.
Okay.
Okay. Thank you.
This is it.
Yes, it is. You ready?
I'm ready.
- Happy Valentine's!
- Surprise!
Oh, my God. Joe. Chris.
Oh! Did you grow?
Yeah, he did.
We got tired of living
our lives over FaceTime.
And we decided that when
we're together as a family,
that's when we're on the right path.
Wow, thank you.
Jenny.
Let's renew our vows.
The baby just dropped.
It was incredible.
I wish you could have seen it.
Joe, I want to tell you something.
I'm gonna run my mother's
campaign for city commissioner.
That's great.
I'm moving to Miami.
Miami?
I work at a pizza shop.
I can barely afford my apartment,
and my career's on pause
for who knows how long.
The plan was always
to move back to Miami.
What about us?
Amy, listen to me.
What's back there in that
room with Eric and Mal,
that love and that
family, I want that, okay?
I want that, and I want it
with you, okay?
- Joe
- No, hear me out.
Marry me.
Marry me.
I have made so many
crappy choices in my life
that I wish I could undo.
What we have is so special, and
I turned my back on you
when you needed me the most.
I am so sorry.
All I can do now is fix it.
I do wanna live again,
with you.
Every bone in my body knows
that you are the one for me.
It's always been you.
I should've come to the lake house.
Let me make the right choice this time.
Please.
Every decision you make,
you write your own life story.
But you don't always get
to write your own ending.
All you can do is chase what you love
and see what's next.
