The growing season is short.
We're zone 16 so our last frost-free day is May 15th.
Say, do you ever watch The Weather Channel? No.
I don't think I ever have.
It relaxes me.
What else do you like to watch? Our Munchie Meals are missing fries.
- Hmm.
- Oh, I'm sorry.
Let me see.
Raymond, the berries won't go up the straw.
Use the spoon.
Thank you.
Do you enjoy gardening, Ana? I guess I don't know.
I grew up in the city.
We had window boxes with carnations for a while.
Really? Oh, carnations are lovely.
We especially like cannas too.
Pull out.
- Pull out.
- No, not now.
- Bill, pull out.
- Margie, please.
Not ow! - Stop.
- What? You look at me sideways and I'm six months pregnant.
I don't want to get pregnant again, not so soon.
Okay? I understand.
- No, I'm serious.
- It's all right.
It's not my turn.
How are things with Nicki? Are you and she? - Are you? - Honey, please.
She hasn't gotten pregnant for four years, and we know it's not you that's the problem, so what is the problem? Oh, for Pete's sake, go to sleep.
Have you talked to her about it? Good night, Margene.
She needs to bring all this equipment herself? - A field hockey stick? - It's an athletic camp.
Archery bow? It's six weeks.
You just pick Teenie up after practice.
- It's around 5:00.
- I'll be there.
Ana again on Thursday, good.
What did you think of our date last night? I thought it was nice.
What did you think? Real nice.
Oh, wait wait wait.
Ben's flag raising on Friday? Don should've told you.
Isn't his post sponsoring the event? Oh, crud.
Could you cover? Well, I could, but I really wish you would.
I think it would mean a lot to Ben if you found the time.
- He's flag-bearer.
- Why isn't Nicki conceiving? How should I know? - Well, haven't you wondered? - Well, of course I've wondered.
So? Could mean a lot of things stress, - her father, the trial.
- Four years? Do you know if she's even seen a doctor lately? You know how she is.
If she's not telling you, she's not telling me.
Oh, Margene, I've never been so bored in my life, and it went on and on and on.
We talked about the weather and then gardening and then about bone meal.
I don't even know what.
On a date.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I guess it's not what you're used to.
Of course not.
You go out, you go to a nice restaurant, you have a lovely bottle of wine.
You know, you even go dancing.
Bone meal.
But you'll still come on Thursday, right? We're all looking so forward to it.
Everyone's kind and so polite, but God, please please, don't you ever ever desert me like that.
I won't, I promise.
Thursday will be great.
You'll see.
I gotta go, bye.
Two Jane Does down, two to go.
Where do they find these vipers? Well, Rhonda I can understand.
Do we know for certain that Rhonda's a Jane Doe? We do now, yes.
She called her mother.
Poor Lydia.
She swears she had nothing to do with Rhonda's civil case against your father.
You've got to find her.
She's burned through three foster homes.
She's gone.
She could be anywhere.
Well, there's a reason you're working in the D.
A.
's, a reason why we invested so much effort.
Well, it's not so easy.
They've put all the files into a war room.
This isn't a game we're playing.
I haven't slept in four days.
They raided the ranch in Kansas with storm troopers and took all the children.
Your father's being held by this kangaroo court and he could die behind bars.
I understand.
I'm sorry but we're gonna make it through this, Mama.
We will.
Okay, thank you.
They want me to give another deposition tomorrow.
I gotta work in the afternoon.
I can't get you up to the city.
They're gonna do it down here in a hotel room in St.
George.
Every time I see her looking at us like that, I wanna go over and take her hand and say, "This is what's going on.
" No, baby.
I don't want to put that kind of stress on her, or us.
If she went and told people that you're gonna testify against Roman before we're ready to go, we could suffer a lot of backlash, or worse.
Won't Alby protect us? We're all just safer if no one knows, especially Wanda.
I'm putting the two of you at risk is what I'm doing.
No, you're righting a wrong that was done to you, and I'm gonna back you up I'm gonna back you up 1000%.
This is how to handle this.
Okay? I know it.
This scan will map the nodes, then they can remove what they want for the biopsy.
And for the removal, will I need to spend the night? Dr.
Gowan will explain everything.
Oh.
Margie, where have you been? Big news: I sold 15 units.
I don't even want to tell you how many thousands of dollars that is.
Bill says I'm his lucky charm.
Honey, that's great but you were supposed to be back two hours ago to look after all the boys and Nell.
Nicki called me a half hour ago fit to be tied.
She has work this afternoon.
Oh, gosh, I'm sorry.
I'll make it up to her.
I will, I promise.
Sweetie, has she said anything to you about problems getting pregnant? I knew it.
What did she say? Oh no, she didn't say anything to me.
So you're concerned too.
I just can't believe we dropped the ball like this.
Barb, do you suppose that she and Bill are having - Margene.
- I know, but what if they've stopped? Fine, I'm just saying I'm not having the next baby.
No way.
Where have you been? Leaving me with babies and boys? I took care of it, Nicki.
I opened up a whole new territory for Weber.
The sports bar by the dry-cleaner's.
So what? You've been spending entirely too much time on Weber.
Margie, pour Nicki some Kool-Aid.
What is it? What's going on? I was just talking about Ana.
I don't think last night was a smashing success.
What does she want? I mean, she got the front seat and they gave her endless refills.
She's European, Nicki.
She has higher standards than us.
We need to make Thursday more romantic.
We need to step it up.
We can all bring little gifts.
Ridiculous.
Here.
Nicki.
Bill is concerned and so are we About the fact that you aren't having any more babies.
Wayne? Could you take your brothers into the other room? Bill said something? We're all just worried about you.
"We're all"? There's nothing wrong with me.
Maybe it's Bill.
Well, Margene just had one.
Maybe something awful happened to his parts since then.
Maybe Margie broke him.
There's nothing to be ashamed of.
I, of all people, know that.
I'm sure our Heavenly Father will provide for us when it's time.
Certainly it's not for you two to set the pace.
Well, we're here to help.
He teaches casino design at UNLV.
Anyway, this is what they did for the Mohegans.
- Don? - Oh.
I mean, you can clearly see these guys have a long track record in tribal casinos.
I bring the LDS sensitivity.
- Jerry, it's a great match.
- Interesting.
Don? This is the Dakota Magic built for the Sisseton-Wahpeton Sioux.
If you can plant a casino-hotel complex in the middle of North Dakota and make it sing, you know what you're doing.
Bill, I don't know how to say this tactfully, because I do like you, but if I wanted a slideshow, I could've arranged that myself.
I thought there was gonna be a model.
Isn't that what you told me? Yeah.
Yeah, that's right.
No.
Exactly, it's coming.
We asked the firm to throw together a model from the blueprints, but they well, they obviously misunderstood.
If you're gonna sell me a vision, I need something tangible to bring before my tribal council to get this off the ground.
Some glitz.
Something snazzy.
Look, I know you guys are mom and pop, and I appreciate that, but you're competing against Trump and Wynn.
What the heck was that all about? You promised him the model? I don't think I said that.
He called and asked and I don't know what I said.
Well, nuts to that.
Now we gotta shell out.
Look, I'll pony up half, but then I'm gonna need your half.
Bill, I told you, I don't have that kind of money right now.
Neither do I.
I'm as stretched as you are, but we have got to make this happen.
Bill, don't talk to me like a child.
I said no and I mean it.
Hey.
Did I do something wrong? Sarah, are we gonna talk about this ASU thing or not? I got accepted and I like it.
That's about it.
I just don't understand this sudden love for Arizona.
I mean, I know you'll get your parents off your back, but it's like you want to get away from me too.
No.
That's not it.
Have you even told your parents? Don't worry.
I'm gonna tell them.
So they don't know anything about this at all? It just happened.
You can't run away from your problems.
They'll just follow you.
I'm cold.
Can I borrow your sweater? Yeah.
Hey, if I pushed you too hard, I'm sorry.
And I can learn to accept your family.
How? Just give me a chance.
- I got to go.
- No, Sarah, not like this, you don't.
Come on.
I have to.
You know, I don't think you should be going outside of our marital bonds to discuss something as personal as my ability to conceive.
Growing the family is why we're here.
Matthew 18:5 "Whosoever shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me.
" Don't start quoting Scripture at me, Bill.
You'll lose that game quick enough.
Sweetie, Barb's not gonna have another baby and it's unfair to ask Margie to carry the load alone.
Right? Well, what about Ana? We don't marry someone to be a brood mare.
Why not? I think you need to see a doc, hon.
Just to make sure you're okay.
I just don't know if a doctor will be enough.
I feel I need a blessing from my father.
No, Nicki.
We are not going to the prison to invoke your father's blessing.
Well, if you want me to conceive and become pregnant No.
Bill, Evie and Cole couldn't have a baby for five years.
Then my father blessed them and eight months later, twins.
Wanda? - How did you get in? - The door was open.
Get rid of Kathy.
You can do it.
Assign her to someone else or I don't know what I'll do.
What's that supposed to mean, Wanda? Just or else.
Wanda, Kathy is very dear to me, as are you.
But were anything to happen to Kathy, were she to be injured or harmed in any way, it would sadden me most deeply.
That was for you.
It was Park Memorial.
Hmm, what do they want? To confirm your appointment.
- Okay.
- For what? Just my annual check-up.
Mom, I think I want to go to ASU.
ASU? Isn't it a little late to apply? I already did.
I was accepted into the nursing program.
Did you tell your dad about this? No, I just I didn't want to get you guys worked up if I wasn't gonna get in.
Honey, we saved up for the U.
There's a big difference between $5,000 in-state and $20- or $25,000 out-of-state at ASU.
I know.
I don't understand, Sarah.
What's going on? When did this happen? Don't you think that with everything going on the trial, with Nicki's family, three wives, cops, Court TV, maybe it would just be a little bit easier for me to just blend in in Arizona? Does this have anything to do with your father dating again? Or the fact that you seem so completely comfortable with it? Amen.
You will bear your husband many more children.
Thank you, Papa.
Could you leave us for a moment, Nicolette? It's okay.
Thank you, darling.
Long time no see.
What do you want? Many of my accusers have recanted their lies.
I came here for Nicki.
I won't have anything to do with your trial.
And I have learned the identity of one of my two remaining accusers.
Rhonda Volmer.
Well, Roman, are her accusations true? Certainly not.
She's an opportunist.
And she presses a civil trial against me as well.
And the other women? Their allegations of accessory to I have never suborned coercive copulation.
Never.
I have counseled obedience and I have helped wives find harmony with their husbands.
Glad to hear it.
I want you to find Rhonda and bring her to me.
I'm not your errand boy.
If I can't find her and convince her to renounce the lies she speaks against me, I will put your wives and children on the stand to testify to her credibility, and everything that you're trying to hide about your life will come tumbling out in open court.
Don't you dare try to drag my family into this.
I am an innocent man defending himself.
You come at me, I will do everything in my power to see you locked up for the rest of your life.
No, you won't.
You're a good man devoted to his family and you will do anything to protect them, even become an errand boy.
And if I don't help him find her, he's gonna put you and the children on the witness stand.
He can't do that.
Well, he can't.
This trial is a cesspool and it's pulling us in.
No, you've got to do something, I don't care what.
This is madness.
These are our children and I won't let them be pawns in the hands of Roman Grant.
I'll talk to Lee Hatcher.
I'll figure something out.
In the meantime, I'm doing everything I can as fast as I can to get our interests out of Utah.
But we've gotta tighten belts.
I'm pouring a lot of money into the casino.
- I mean, just that model alone - That model cost $18,000.
Weber corporate accounts doesn't have it.
Then we're just gonna have to take it out of personal funds.
From where? Sarah just announced that she's been accepted into Arizona State.
- We didn't save for an out-of-state school.
- I know.
We have got to move forward on the casino.
We have no choice.
This whole thing could come crashing down on us.
This trial is toxic.
The atmosphere's poisonous.
We've got to protect ourselves from the fallout.
You better get ready.
Ana's gonna be here in half an hour.
- How'd the blessing go? - Fine, Margene, just fine.
I'm sure when all is said and done, I'll match you baby for baby.
So just drop it.
Nicki.
Do you really want to have another baby? Because even though it is your turn, you can be honest with me.
It is my wifely duty to bear as many children as I can to bless this family and bring everlasting glory to my husband in the afterlife.
I thought we could have a serious conversation about this.
I am serious.
Dad, did Mom tell you I got moved up a rank? I'm the flag-bearer on Friday.
I'm gonna be running the whole show on my own.
- No, she didn't.
- I did tell you.
I said I could go but I thought you should.
Oh, crud, Ben, I'm sorry.
It's cool.
Mom's fine.
- Hey.
- Hey.
Who is your cute- but-tortured friend? He's my Uncle Franky.
He left the compound two weeks ago.
- Shut up.
- Meet your first suburban predator.
- Shut up.
- We were just debating whether Dad should be sent to Social Services for choosing to marry a fourth wife instead of sending his beloved daughter, who would be me, to college in Arizona.
Well, he's entitled to build his family, isn't he? My ward has outreach services and relief society has clothes and a food bank.
Hey, let Opie breath, Bang Bang.
Hi, I'm Donna.
Take me out.
Donna, Heather! So you girls are allowed to date before you're placed? We even have sex if we feel like it.
You know what sex is, right, Opie? Yeah, we had large farm animals on the compound, so we got the idea.
I don't know where it came from.
I just started telling him about the machines and he said, "Maybe one or two.
" Then I said, "Why not 20?" Then he laughed, then I laughed, and he said, "Let me think about it.
" And I said, "No.
You can decide right now.
" Nicki.
Well, it's the fifth time we've heard this.
Nicki.
At first I was like, "No deal.
" But I refused to leave until he agreed to 15.
Bill, you talked to him later.
You know how good I did, and I can do it again and again.
I think I finally found my calling sales associate.
- Margie.
- So, Ana, how many times a year do they give the dental hygienist exam? - Twice a year October and May.
- Oh.
This was so delicious.
I'd serve it with Bordeaux.
You like nice French Bordeaux? Actually, I've never tasted wine.
Margie, I think you're neglecting the calling you were already called for.
Our devotion to our children.
I mean, what are we gonna do about who takes care of them anyway? We'll figure it out.
So far, figuring it out means you go waltzing off and I'm stuck and late for work and Barb is late for her class.
I mean, this is just me being honest with you.
Well, I'm sorry about that.
Well, what are we really gonna do? We can hire a babysitter.
There are three moms here.
I mean, hiring a sitter is the last thing we should do.
I mean, we should be able to take care of our children with mothers to spare.
Has anyone seen any good movies recently? I'm sorry, Ana.
Four years ago I was your babysitter.
Remember that? When you were low man on the totem pole and needed my help? Bill? We'll work it out.
Maybe this just isn't the time for you and Weber.
I just have one more semester at the U.
And we all discussed it and we all agreed that it was Nicki's turn to work.
My job is very important for my self-esteem, Marge.
She's finally trying to assimilate and that's so very important to us.
Excuse me.
- Margie.
- Bill! Don't worry.
We'll work it out.
Come on, you're my lucky charm.
There's another meeting with Jerry tomorrow.
I need you to pick up the architect's model and bring it to the office.
And be sure to wear that red dress.
You know the one.
Did you have enough to eat? Yes, plenty, thank you.
It was very delicious, Barb.
Would you just excuse me for a minute? I can't believe you picked this moment to be sour in front of Ana.
You started it, Marge.
I mean, all you could do was talk about yourself.
I was sharing a story.
It's what you do on a date.
You know, I don't have time for this.
This is a pain in the neck.
We're a family.
We don't date.
This is all your fault.
You could've stayed in your place and let Bill go out and do the heavy lifting, but no, you had to get us all involved.
This was supposed to be a romantic evening.
Well, it wasn't, was it? This is our chance to get to know her, to make an educated decision, to have our say.
Well, I don't see why we should have to bend to her.
We're a catch.
She should take us as we are.
Here.
You okay? Oh, yeah, here you are.
I'm sorry.
I know this isn't what you expected but we've never dated before.
I see.
Ana, we don't really know how to do it, but we'll get the hang of it.
Bill, it was fine.
Have a biscuit.
- Alby.
- Joseph.
We have a problem.
Your wife came to see me and asked me to have Kathy removed from your home.
- Wanda spoke to you? - Yes, she was disturbed.
Well, she didn't really mean anything, I'm sure.
She threatened to harm Kathy if I didn't remove her.
Wanda sometimes has trouble resolving conflicts.
Two of my witnesses are gone.
I can't lose Kathy.
If you can't control Wanda and keep her in harmony, I will send her far far away.
Leave my house.
Ooh.
I'm sorry I'm late.
It was heck getting out of the house.
- Is Jerry here? - All ready.
Ready to go.
Here we go.
Let's get this show on the road.
Let me get a pen.
Uh Stupid, stinking drawer.
I can't do anything right.
Margie, honey, do me a favor.
Take the model into my office.
What? You can't go to a meeting like this.
I'm fine.
Pull yourself together.
What's the matter with you? I will not pull myself together.
Then go home.
I don't want you here.
We're in the middle of an important deal and you're acting like a complete jackass.
Margie and I can handle this.
Oh, great, she's your new partner now? We need this casino.
We need it.
If you can't work with me, if we can't work together anymore, maybe we should think about parting ways.
A 50,000- square-foot facility set on two and a half acres, restaurants, kid's attractions attached.
I like it, Bill.
I do.
But honestly, I'm wondering if this is the right time for us.
It's a slam dunk.
A Mormon-oriented casino an hour-plus from Salt Lake? What's changed? Look, your D and B's check out.
Home Plus is a solid, conservatively run business.
But you and your partner Don's participation is not relevant to this deal.
The time is now, Jerry.
You mean when there's a big trial coming and polygamy's on the front page of every paper in the country? We've waited seven years to find the right relationship.
We can wait a few more.
Wait, I don't think that you understand where Bill's coming from.
My husband has three wives and eight children and he's constantly pulled in all directions.
- Margie.
- And I've never known a man who's kinder, more even-handed and compassionate under incredible demands and stress.
It's just who he is.
But I don't think it's fair to tar him with the abuses of polygamy.
- Margie, that's enough.
- No.
Let's just put this all out there on the table.
Because if that's what this is, if that's what this is all about, then that's just prejudice and bigotry.
That'd be the same as dismissing you as a dirty Indian or some drunken, lazy redskin.
I said my piece.
Let's not push it.
I just said the truth.
Sometimes the best thing to say is nothing, Margene.
What have you gone and done? Peg.
Peg.
What the heck's going on with Don? You're not pressuring him with your feelings about gambling, are you? Don't assume you know my private feelings, Bill.
Look, I'm sorry but you're wrong.
Everything could crumble.
We're vulnerable.
Weber's less vulnerable.
That's been my strong opinion Drop it, Bill.
I'll follow you all the way home if I have to.
Oh, Bill, Vernie and Jojo ran off.
Ran off? Together? They took their kids, our kids, Don's children.
I don't believe it.
As of a week ago, Don and I are sadly monogamous.
So our problems are pretty immediate, so back off.
- How you feeling? - How does it look? I won't have an answer until the biopsy comes back from the lab.
But you have a sense of how it looked I'm sure.
There's no official diagnosis.
We have to wait until the pathologist reads the sample.
Do you have someone here to drive you home? I feel fine to drive.
I know but it's the rule.
You can't be released without a ride.
I'm so sorry.
You're a good man, Don.
They'll come back to you.
But if they don't? I have no rights.
I can't go to the courts.
I can't see my little boys or girls.
I'm not gonna get through this.
Why didn't you come to me? I feel so embarrassed.
I failed as a man.
No no, you didn't.
Our Heavenly Father has a plan.
You have to have faith in that.
And you'll fight for your children.
No, our lawyer said to drop it.
If I fight, they'll say we're a cult, that we brainwashed and abused them.
I can't even claim my own children without fear of arrest.
What kind of world are we living in? Yeah, hi, Barb.
I can't talk right now.
We don't know anything yet.
Well, we're gonna make it through this.
Seven years ago, I felt alone and frightened of dying, but I'm not afraid anymore.
Now I'm part of something strong.
Just look at what our family's become.
You're right.
But we have to keep growing no matter what.
That's why Ana.
If she's the right one for us.
I don't know her well enough to be sure that she's a right fit.
She does seem to have a good head on her shoulders.
It gives me great comfort to know what heaven will look like and who our family will be there.
Don't tell anyone, not until we know more.
This life is nothing compared to what comes next.
I thought you could use a good home-cooked meal.
Look at you.
Oh, you just give and give and don't know how to stop.
Well, let's eat some right now.
So what brings you here? Well, I worry about you out here alone in this van.
I'm very resourceful.
This is how I grew up.
Bill wants me to have another baby.
Well, you really should have had more by now, Nicolette.
I saw how having so many hurt your relationship with Papa.
Not true.
The more children, the higher I rose in his estimation.
Honey, our real power as women is our ability to bear our husbands large and robust broods.
But you did resent us for making you more mother and less wife.
Are you deliberately not having babies? You are, aren't you? You were raised better than that! I'm just worry Bill's spread too thin.
If you're letting a desire to have a relationship with your husband stand between you and your duty, you're on the path to ruin.
Your problem is you've never wanted to submit.
Let's face it, you've always been a little bit selfish.
Why are you massaging that bird's anus with a Q-Tip? He's got a pasted vent.
He can't poop.
Oh.
Honey, might you tell me from where you made the purchase of that bird in case I might want one for companionship? What do you want? I came to introduce you to your new sisterwife.
This is Jodean.
All the other old ones are out in the car.
Hello, Sister Lois.
Show her what I bought you.
I treat all my wives with respect if they're deserving of it.
I look forward to the chance to get to know you, Sister Lois.
I can come by and make you lunch sometimes if you'd like.
Hmm.
Get out.
Both of you! I'll be right out.
You see that? You see how she listens? You are gonna learn to listen.
And you are gonna come to respect me.
Anyone can marry a whore and get her respect.
You! Falling from my fond esteem is not what you want to do.
Just do me in and get it over with, Frank.
You killed my heart and my soul 30 years ago.
You will be in harmony with me.
Just do me in, you miserable man.
Do it.
Do it.
Stop! Get back! Get back! Stop! Ah! Hello, Ana.
What's up? I know it's last minute, but I can't make dinner tonight.
Please tell everyone I'm sorry.
A shift came up at work and I promised I'd cover.
It's almost 7:00.
It's too late for a shift.
Ana, talk to me.
What's going on? - They don't need me.
- Who? You know, your wives.
They have no use for me.
That's not true.
You've just gotta dive in.
You can't hang back in these kind of situations.
You gotta make room for yourself at the table.
There is no room for me in those houses, in those lives for me.
This is new for all of us, Ana.
We're just all trying to find our way along.
Well, maybe I just won't be any good at it.
- Ana, just come over.
- I have to go.
Where's Barb? She's upstairs.
Nick, I need to tell you something.
Barb had some tests at the hospital.
What for? She had four lymph nodes removed for biopsy.
She might be having a reoccurrence.
Oh no, Bill.
We'll have the report tomorrow.
It's going to be okay.
Don't, Nicki, don't.
This has to stay between us.
Not Barb, Bill.
No.
Nicki, please.
She doesn't want anyone to know.
She wants to tell you herself when she's ready.
I'm as afraid as you are, but we have got to stay positive.
Oh, there you are.
Ready to start dinner? You bet.
Ready.
I want to talk to you about something.
Sure, Barb, whatever you need.
This is a sensitive subject, I know, but we need to talk about it.
Yes yes.
It's it's all gonna work out.
What are you talking about? What are you talking about? Margie and I are going with you to the fertility clinic.
Do we have to talk about me now? It's all right.
We haven't given the blessing enough time.
Nicki.
Fine.
I'll get the day off and I'll make an appointment.
You don't have to.
I made an appointment with a specialist tomorrow at 11:00 A.
M.
He sent away my son.
He sent away my Franky.
- He's deader than a doornail.
- Hush.
He's still breathing.
Now I know what you endured when Bill was driven away.
Are you finished? What have I done? What have I done? I'm gonna be cast out.
Frank is my husband.
He's my priesthood holder.
Get out to that car and get all of them out of here.
What do I tell them? Frank is staying here for dinner.
Pork chops.
We all crash here.
One of the older guys started renting it.
He was kicked off a few years ago.
Come on.
Let's just check it out and see what it's like.
We started calling it the "Butt Hut" because of that couch that your mom and dad gave us.
You can't fit one more butt on it.
Okay, so you guys just all live here on your own without any supervision? Fun.
Serious delinquency.
Hi, Franky.
Charlotte and Charlene.
Their mother took them and ran.
They're just counting the days till they're 18 and can move back to the compound.
You're wicked.
You're Satan's tool.
Dude, that's herpes! Ugh, gross.
Sarah, I think those two boys on the sofa are doing like meth or heroin or uppers or something.
Shhh.
- Are you Sarah? - Bow, man.
She's a queen.
There's some guy out front who wants to talk to you.
What are you doing here? I, uh I followed you.
Are you stalking me? Look, hey.
They have radio stations and jobs in Arizona too.
You know, I can I can see what I can get in Phoenix.
But you wanted a promotion at your job.
You wanted to get into the newsroom.
Sarah, we can build a nice life together.
You know? So I will go where you want to go.
I'm sorry, I just don't think that will actually work.
Aren't you listening? I said I'd go with you.
Why are you being this way? Because I don't think that you're the right guy for me.
I'm not in love with you.
Wow.
You know, I just don't I don't get it.
You know, you're choosing the family that you've been complaining about ever since I met you.
I mean, what is this place? You know, I thought you wanted to be free.
You know, I threw you a lifeline, but you're just throwing it away.
You okay? Um, not so good.
Sarah, Ben, you have to come see this right now.
Come on.
Come on.
I can't believe it.
It's the rat's nest.
It's Granny's house! It's like she's in love with herself.
She's lost her mind.
- You know Rhonda? - Yeah, kinda.
- You know her too? - She stayed with us.
She's not that bad.
She's okay.
Wait a second, are you and Rhonda - Are you? - No, not exactly.
This is too perfect.
You have a crush on Granny's boyfriend.
Wish I could come with you and make amends.
I know I could fix things.
I know Jerry likes me.
Honey, I've got to see Jerry alone if this is going to work out.
I just wanted to be invaluable.
At least semi-invaluable.
You are, sweetie.
You're invaluable to me.
I couldn't do anything.
L I couldn't have anything if you weren't.
Maybe I just have some more to learn.
It was just a rookie mistake.
How do I look? You look like a million bucks.
Jerry.
I need to speak to you one more time before you go.
First off, my wife said some things yesterday I thought about what she said about the bigotry.
There was some truth to it.
We have too much in common to let this fall apart.
What do you think we have in common, Bill? Your people were forced onto reservations.
In a way, my people were too.
We're both trying to improve the lot of those we love and maintain a sacred life in the midst of a culture that's forgotten what's holy.
It's an unlikely partnership, yours and mine.
We both have a shared history together that needs mending.
Let's mend and prosper at the same time.
Look, I'm not Vegas, I'm not glitzy.
I'm just a regular guy trying to support my family.
Miss Grant? The doctor's ready to see you.
Good luck.
Barb before you married me and Nicki did you and Bill talk about how many children you wanted? You know, on your own? I guess I always thought we'd have six or seven.
Now I'd have had Bill's children for as long as our Heavenly Father wanted.
Losing the ability to give that to Bill was quite a blow.
But sometimes, as you know the choice isn't ours.
I've decided I need to do that same thing.
I need to be a mother now.
And sometime in the future, I'd like to do something that has to do with sales.
But only selling something I believe in.
- I think - It's okay.
You don't have to say anything.
All set.
Looks good.
How long does it take for birth control pills to wear off? You're on birth control? - Yes.
- How long have you been on them? For a few years and then I stopped.
But I think I might have damaged myself permanently.
How long ago did you stop? - Three days.
- You're fine.
In a month or two you should begin ovulating again.
Miss Grant, I don't have many patients who come to see me for fertility counseling who are actually on birth control.
Do you want to have another child? Yes.
You do know it's your choice? No, it's not.
I've never had a choice ever.
I've always been told what to do and I've always done it.
- Always.
- You can be completely honest with me.
Do you understand? Because I'm sensing some confusion here.
I want to have children.
I'm not a monster.
I want to do my part.
I love children.
I love being a mother.
It's important to me.
Do you want me to write you a prescription for more birth control pills for the time being? Yes.
I want to move Weber from strictly sales and leasing to actual profit-sharing with the users.
And with Jerry's land and the federal incentives, we won't have to leverage a thing.
It's perfect.
A perfect high-reward, low-risk investment.
His tribal council still has to vote to authorize.
They did.
There you go, son.
Go on.
Go with your brother.
I think I know where we can get the loan from too.
I want to go to the same bank that pours the money into Vegas Garnet National.
Of all the so-called ironies, a Mormon-run bank.
They'll look into you, Bill.
That's why I want you to apply for the loan.
You're the most creditworthy monogamist I know now.
I could do this another way, but you're my partner in all this, Don.
You gotta be protected too so you can rebuild your family.
This is it, Don.
This is the solid foundation we've been looking for to build our earthly and celestial kingdoms.
Hey, Mom, it's me.
I wanted to share something with you.
I got be at a public event with all my boys.
We were all able just to be together.
Well, that just makes my day.
I'm awfully glad for you.
Things are getting better, Ma, little by little.
All things come to those who wait.
You tell me there's an angel In your tree Did he say he'd come To call on me? Hey.
I missed you.
I missed you too.
- Is it just us? - Just us.
We came by for an indoors picnic.
Everybody now Bring your family down To the riverside - Hello.
- Hi.
Look who's here.
Margene, grab that end.
- Welcome.
- That's great.
Whoo! Hello? No, you're not interrupting.
Thank you, Doctor.
Thank you so much for calling.
Uh-huh.
Next year.
And see the red flame light the sky Burn down the mission Burn it down to stay alive It's our only chance of living Take all you need To live inside.
