Private Practice s04e02 Episode Script

Short Cuts

We're gonna be late for work again.
We're newlyweds.
Newlyweds have lots of sex.
We have a reason to be late.
Ignore it.
- Maybe it's work.
- It's him.
- Ignore it! - Okay.
You've gotta do something.
I Violet, do not pick up that phone.
Violet.
Hey.
Can you believe Michael got kicked off last night? I mean his food looked amazing.
I know, I know.
I thought Sharon would go.
All she talks about is how she uses organic ingredients.
Well, I thought her cupcakes looked like poop.
There gonna keep Sharon as long as they can - Yeah.
Because she's got a big rack, right? Well, did you go online? No, you gotta see the outtakes.
I mean, she was weeping.
She knows she sucked.
Violet, hi.
Cooper has to go.
I was having a conversation, Charlotte.
It's what we do, me and Violet.
I mean, "American bake-off" discussion every Tuesday morning.
You know this.
Wednesdays it's "The New York Times" crossword puzzle.
Thursdays it's your plans for the weekend.
Fridays it's "runway.
" Saturdays and Sundays, it's how much she hates her mother, then how much you love your mother.
- On Mondays, it's margaritas.
- We're best friends.
It's our thing.
* do my thing to keep the money paying * * only one, and this is where I'm staying * Vi, hey.
Sorry about that.
Uh, no, Charlotte had a whatever.
It's fine.
Um, okay, so who wins the cookie-off next week? * - Stop that.
- Hmm? What? Stop Looking at me like we just did dirty things to each other.
* Oh, oh * But we did just do dirty things to each other this morning.
- Okay, Sam.
- Hmm? Look, this elevator is going to stop, and people could be milling around.
M milling? - That that's a thing now? - Yeah.
- People mill in our in our office? - People do mill.
See? Nobody.
Okay.
- Come - Nope.
Missed your chance.
- Sam.
- Too late.
Sorry I was late.
I had a last-minute freak-out over what to wear.
Well, the bar for psych consults is pretty low.
Not when you're the one on the couch, honey.
It came down to pantsuit versus pencil skirt.
But with these thighs, the pantsuit does me no favors.
You look lovely.
Haven't met many women like me, have you, darlin'? Not enough.
Uh, but I know that Dr.
Wallace has.
Thank you.
You must be Jane Finch.
And you must be the guy who needs to tell her she can chop off my penis.
* You're glaring.
I'm waiting for my patient to finish her consult with Sheldon.
- So the glaring is just - "American bake-off"? Oh, I know, right? I mean, they're baking cakes, for God sake.
Why does that warrant a 2-hour conversation? Look, it's not like we're saying they can't be friends.
We're just asking 'em to cut back a little on the phone calls Showing up at the house unannounced - Gossipy walks - Margarita Mondays.
- Right.
We're not asking for much.
- So I'll talk to Violet.
And I'll talk to Cooper.
No history of alcohol problems.
No drug use.
And to save time, I promise, I've never been abused.
You've done this before.
I did the required year of therapy and then some.
And do you know what I learned? All the right answers to the questions - we ask gender reassignment candidates.
- That what I told my parents on my 9th birthday was pretty much right.
My only problem is that my outsides don't match my insides.
And you feel like surgery is the answer? Dr.
Wallace, would I let them remove my testicles and carve me a brand-spankin'-new vagina if I wasn't sure? It's all in there, you know? About my, uh, suicide attempt.
I've read it, but these are just another doctor's notes, and I'd rather hear from you about what happened.
I was a kid, 19, on my own by then.
Old enough to know for sure I was in the wrong body, but too young to have enough money to do anything about it.
I got frustrated, then resentful, then depressed.
Wrist cutting is a violent act against yourself.
Did you, h Hate myself? I hated my circumstances.
I know who I am, Dr.
Wallace.
I'm a woman inside.
I' put in the time, and I've scraped together the money.
And now I want to be a woman outside.
All I need is your blessing.
- Anybody know anything about this? - No idea.
- Well, I came for the doughnuts.
- There aren't any doughnuts.
- Well, I've been terribly misinformed.
- Stick around, Sheldon.
Naomi said she wants to discuss something with all of us.
Did did did we miss anything? Doughnuts, apparently.
Hi.
Uh, so, uh, I I have an idea that I want to talk to everyone about.
Um, I, uh, well, okay, uh Let me back up.
Last night, uh, William White died.
Oh, Nai.
I'm sorry.
Don't.
Please don't.
I'm fine.
It's been a long time coming, and we both knew that it was happening, and I am fine, and I don't want to discuss it.
But what I do want to discuss is this I want to merge Oceanside Wellness and Pacific Wellcare.
I I mean, wouldn't that be sort of complicated? I mean, the the finances of it alone are No.
No, no, no.
It's not an issue.
William left me his foundation to run with millions, many, many millions.
So we now have the resources.
We can do some good here.
We great even.
You know, uh, you know, b being a doctor is supposed to be a noble calling, but we know that that's not always the case, you know? There's only so much money, and so much time, and and the real world intrudes, and, uh, you have to compromise, but now we don't have to.
Sam when Sam and I were first thinking about O.
W.
G.
, we imagined a practice where we could really get to know every single one of our patients and spend the time with them that they needed.
And now we can do that.
We can do anything and and everything.
So - Sounds good to me.
- I have no problem with it.
Will this include full kitchen access? Everybody's on both floors all the time anyway, so what difference does it make? Anything else? Umm No, no.
I I I guess not.
How's the pain? Any better? My migraine's gone.
I definitely feel more relaxed.
But I think a big part of that is that Dr.
Freedman's been watching Zack for the past hour.
He's a good kid.
Yeah, he is.
I love him.
Just, dealing with his autism is It's getting worse? Well, he's getting bigger, so the fits are sometimes hard to control.
Sometimes it gets a little scary.
I I hate to say that, you know, that sometimes I'm afraid of my kid.
You're doing everything you can for him, Sydney.
It's just important to remember to take care of yourself as well.
Hi, sweetie.
How'd it go? Great.
I think the new meds are working.
He's much calmer than he was last week.
I did notice that his eyes are a little glassy.
Has he been running a fever or No.
Okay.
Just to be on the safe side, I'd like to take some blood and make sure - it's not an adverse reaction.
- Oh, that's not necessary.
We should get going.
- Come on, baby.
- Well, it's just a precaution.
It's not you're already here.
It'll just take a few minutes.
I can't.
I just Sydney, what's going on? I stopped giving Zack your pills.
Uh, may I ask why? I've been giving him, uh, the drug that Dr.
Wilder prescribes for my migraines.
Sydney, that is not a good idea.
Why? What have you been giving him? Marijuana.
Before you say anything, I had no idea Sydney was giving her pot to Zack.
Wh why were you giving it to her in the first place? It was the only thing that helped her chronic migraines.
Medicinal marijuana is legal in the state of California, Cooper, - in case you missed the - I okay.
Do you have any idea what it would do to an autistic 12 year old? Okay, I know Sydney.
We know Sydney.
She wouldn't do something like this unless she was desperate.
I've been treating Zack for over a year.
**** I know the challenges she's facing, but you're talking about a brain that's still developing, not to mention the risk of addiction, increased anxiety maybe, but - Maybe? Are you gonna condone this? Really? I don't condone anyone misusing any prescription.
And giving it to her kid? Of course not.
I just I understand her dilemma.
Conventional treatments have failed, so now she's willing to try anything.
I've seen the literature, Pete.
I know that there is a small group of doctors that say that it works with autistic kids.
Okay.
Then maybe it's time - for you to consider the possibility - No, what I was gonna say was, and I have treated kids older than Zack, healthy kids, that have ended up with behavioral problems that I mean, there are so many other therapies out there that are proven to work better without the possible long-term side effects.
Look, I don't like what Sydney did any more than you do, but maybe we need to keep an open mind here.
If marijuana is helping Zack, we owe it to both of them to at least talk about it.
Okay, the reason we decided to keep our relationship a secret had nothing to do with Naomi.
Right? It's because we wanted to give ourselves a chance to to see what this you know, what we are.
- Yeah, but the merger means - I know.
I know what the merger means.
I mean, God, she's Naomi, Sam.
She's gonna be here all day.
She's gonna figure out that we're together.
Which is why we need to tell her.
Look, we know what we are.
All right? We work.
As a couple, we work.
There's no reason to hide this from her.
Maybe we wait just a little while, though.
I mean, give her a chance to grieve William.
You know, let her get her feet back under her? Do you want me to tell her? If you're afraid, then I can - No, I'm not afraid.
I I just wh - You just what? Fine.
I'll I'll tell her.
- I can tell her.
- No, I should.
I'll tell her about us.
When I wrote you that prescription, I assumed you would use it responsibly.
Since when is a mother helping her child irresponsible? When it involves giving him a drug any drug not prescribed for him, because along with breaking the law, you violated my trust.
I knew you weren't gonna like it.
I just didn't feel like I had a choice.
You have other options, anti-hyperactivity meds.
- We tried those.
- Behavioral therapies.
We gave up on that two years ago.
Come on.
Don't you think I've tried everything, read every book? I'm sorry.
I'm just really tired.
I'm just tired.
And, uh I don't know how to do this anymore.
I don't know how to get through the day.
Okay.
We'll come up with another plan to help Zack.
When? Soon.
I know how difficult this is for you.
Don't.
Don't say that.
Do you have an autistic child? Have you ever even thought what this is like every single day? You don't know.
Nobody knows.
I'm a single mother! My husband left me because he couldn't handle this.
You have no idea! You have no idea how difficult this is! Get out! What? I won't give him your pot, so you can go! Okay?! Holá, chica.
Why aren't you in Seattle? Well, I got to the airport and remembered I'd already been there.
So I went to Mexico instead.
The plan was to see Derek in Seattle.
Yeah, well, plans change.
What'd I miss? Well, Naomi wants to merge the practices.
That's cool.
That's not cool? Sam and I are a couple.
Go, Addison.
I mean, is he as good in bed as I think he is? Because he has big hands.
I mean, he has big, gifted hands.
Shut up.
Naomi doesn't know.
No one knows.
And I don't want to talk to you about Sam's hands.
If I had that man in my bed, I would be shouting it from the rooftops.
- I'd write a song.
- Amelia, it's hard.
Yeah, it's hard.
Amelia, I need you to be a grown-up here.
Okay.
You need to tell her because she's your best friend, and not telling her that's underestimating your friendship.
What am I gonna say? How about "Here's the deal, Nai.
I'm banging Sam.
If you promise not to be mad, I'll buy you a Gucci bag"? Would would you ever try to bribe Derek? If I thought it would work, absolutely.
Fine.
I'm gonna tell her.
I'll just put it out there, and and see what happens.
S so I woke up in a bed full of cookie crumbs, right? With my comparative lit prof right right next to me.
And the worst part was, she still gave me a "C" in the course.
That's nothing.
Sophomore year at college Yeah? I went straight from an all-night party to the airport.
I was supposed to go home and see my family.
I got on the wrong plane.
I ended up in North Dakota.
- What, you flew there direct? - I had to change planes.
What's so funny? He Ah, nothing.
Nothing, man.
You heard the man.
Oh, Cooper told you.
Look, we are we are not here to judge.
No, but I might want to make an appointment with you for a prescription.
I have this ache in my back.
Hey, I was just looking for you.
We have a little problem.
Is that a polite way of you asking me not to shave my legs with your razor? Well, I do want that.
But it's about Cooper.
You want to change Cooper? You and Cooper, actually.
A little less you and Cooper.
N now come on, Violet.
He calls every morning.
He checks in after dinner.
- So what? It's only phone calls.
- And texts and e-mails, and he's on our couch three nights a week watching tv.
- Don't he and Charlotte have cable? - Cooper is my friend.
- Yeah, well, that's fine.
- Oh, I'm so glad to get your approval.
I just want to draw some lines, and so No, no, you want to have some control of my best friend.
A friend I understand.
But a guy who can't decide what color boxers to wear without consulting you first? That I'm having some trouble with.
You are so wrong.
And besides, Cooper wears briefs.
Hey, Mr.
Pusher Man.
Hey, uh, we're in the middle of a conversation here, Cooper.
Oh, yeah? Is about, uh, whether to prescribe pot to an autistic 12 year old? 'Cause I bet I know what you think.
What are you talking about? I suggested we discuss it.
It's an adolescent with developmental issues.
- There's no discussion.
- Nothing you're doing is working.
- You know what? - C can we take this down a notch? Okay, would you prescribe medical marijuana to a patient if you knew it would treat their destructive behavior? - A 12-year-old patient also knowing that it can cause long-term problems.
I'm not getting dragged into this.
Uh-huh.
Let him go.
It's his problem.
Until he calls, and I have to spend the rest of the night on the phone with him.
Hey.
There you are.
Hey.
Um, I, uh, I I followed up with Pete about the merger.
And he just keeps saying, you know, "it sounds good, sounds good.
" So I I don't know.
I guess that means that it - Sounds good to him? - Yeah.
You know, Charlotte and Cooper don't seem to care.
And and Sheldon's more excited about the fact that there's a cookie drawer up here than a possibility of a 2-shrink practice.
I Did you expect more resistance? I don't I don't know.
I I guess I've been so overwhelmed with everything that's happened lately, I I don't know.
I'm just I guess I'm just waiting to get hit with something else.
- What's wrong? - Nothing.
That's not a "nothing's wrong" face, Addie.
What's wrong? No, I, uh I I just wanted to tell you that I'm sorry about William.
He was an amazing guy.
Yeah, he was.
You know, there's not too many of those around.
No, there aren't.
So about Jane Finch.
I know you're experienced with these types of cases, - and I appreciate it.
- I'd like to see her again.
Well, as I understand it, she's already done the mandated therapy.
I just need a second psychiatrist to sign off to meet the standard of care requirement.
Well, I'm not a rubber stamp.
You really have a problem here? Jane cut her wrists, which on its own doesn't necessarily disqualify her, but the explanation she gave her first therapist, - she repeated it to me verbatim.
- Points off for consistency? No, for being rehearsed.
She came into my office, she had all the right answers, including about the suicide attempt.
- And you think she's hiding something? - I need to know that she isn't.
Her "up with people" attitude notwithstanding, unless Jane is stable with a realistic appreciation not only of who she is but who she's going to become, gender reassignment surgery can do more harm than good.
Now isn't that a lot to ask of someone who feels like they're trapped in the wrong body? It's like demanding a sick person get well before you give 'em the medication they need.
Look, I'm not saying no.
But this isn't a boob job or a tummy tuck.
We're looking at a surgery that is fundamentally gonna change who Jane is forever.
A surgery that she desperately wants, that she's done everything she's supposed to to get ready for, and that's scheduled for the day after tomorrow.
Surgical team is prepped and ready to go.
Well, apologies if my professional judgment is inconveniencing you, okay? Is it your professional judgment, Sheldon? Or are you just making this difficult because I picked Cooper instead of you? You should understand two things.
First, I'm right about Jane.
Second, we can be good colleagues without being good friends or really just friends at all.
Hi.
I did what Dr.
Wilder said.
He told me not to give him pot anymore, and I didn't.
And I threw t what I had left, but look at him.
He's worse than before.
This is probably a reaction to him coming off the drug so quickly.
I can't, uh, I can't do this anymore.
I need to know this plan.
Which plan? Dr.
Wilder, he he came over earlier, and he said that you were gonna find a way to help us.
No, Zack.
Hey, Zack.
Okay, okay.
Zack, come here.
Okay.
No one's gonna hurt you, but you have to take it easy.
I got you.
- Please give him the marijuana.
It worked.
It helped him.
We'll find another treatment, okay? - No, but that could take weeks to see results.
- I need help now.
- We'll get through it.
No, we won't.
I won't.
Please just give him the drugs.
I'm sorry.
I can't do that.
Aah! You told me this skirt worked, so I know I'm not back here for any bad news after my session with that cute little head shrinker.
Please, no.
Dr.
Wallace is concerned that you told him what you thought he'd want to hear.
And that makes me crazy? Then tell me what to do.
Stop pretending what you're going through isn't painful and lonely.
I can't do that, because the one time I gave in and really let myself think about what my life has been up to now * Talking away * So instead I'm faking it till I make it.
* I'll say it anyway * And I've almost made it.
You can't fool him, Jane.
I don't want to fool him.
I want him to understand that the pain and the loneliness, are not me.
They're the result of not being able to be me.
* Take on me * Tell him that.
Be honest.
* Take me on * * I'll be * * gone * * in a day or two * Hey.
I was wondering where you were.
Hey.
Yeah, I left work early so I could, uh, take a run.
That's a long run.
Yeah, I, uh lot to think about.
You're mad.
I'm disappointed.
I was going to tell her.
I was.
Look, there's never gonna be a right time, Addison.
So either you tell her or Or what? Are you threatening me? I'm not No, I'm not threatening you.
* Take on me * Do you need for us to be sneaking around? What what's that supposed to No, I'm just saying, maybe you like it all hot and secret un until it blows up.
What, because I had an affair, then that means that I All right, I'm saying, it's possible that cheating you know, turns you on.
* Two * Wow.
Addison.
- I was just - Go! Sorry.
No, no, stay, - because this conversation is over.
- It's not over.
Okay, I love it here, and I love both you guys.
So can you not fight, 'cause it makes it really awkward for me.
* right.
* Oh, the things that you say * Okay.
* Is it life * I'm sorry that I but, Addison either you're ready to be in this, really in this or you're not.
* You're shying away * I'll tell her.
I will, tomorrow.
* Take on * * me * * Take * You want one? Uh, no.
I had a drink with Violet.
Of course you did.
Well Pete's being an ass.
She needed someone to talk to.
So naturally, she thought of you? Well, yeah.
She had a rough day.
Try telling a patient who waited her whole life for a surgery she can't have it.
Sheldon didn't approve Jane's procedure? Don't pretend to care about it now.
Well that's not fair.
I mean, if you want to talk about it, all you gotta do is ask.
Did Violet ask? Or did you just check in with her like you always do? Come on, Charlotte.
We both have friends.
I mean, you have you know, Sheldon.
You know Sheldon doesn't want to be friends anymore, which would be fine if I could come home and know that you'd be here instead of off with - Okay.
You're blowing it way out of proportion.
No, this would be blowing it out of proportion.
* Ooh * * in a day or two * * Ooh * * Aah! - No! - Oh, Cooper.
No.
No.
What the hell are you doing here? Charlotte threw a drink my face! Get out.
- I'm sorry.
- Get out! - I'm gone.
I'm gone.
Sorry.
- Out! - Sorry.
- Out! Interrupting our makeup sex? I grant you, that was a little - Horrifying.
- It was a little unfortunate.
But he he's going through an adjustment period.
No, enough.
Violet, it has got to stop.
I mean, calling at all hours of the night, barging in here whenever he pleases.
I I'm not asking you to cut him out.
I'm not.
But you gotta set some limits, and if you don't, I will.
Okay.
Well, let's just get something straight here.
I mean, I I married you, but I'm not just some little wife you can boss around.
Violet don't get all, like Don't get all what? Don't get all "Violet" about this? He is my best friend.
And you don't get to order me around and just expect me to obey.
I you want obedience? Get a dog.
So tell me what you want to know? When you wake up from this surgery, what do you think will be different? I think people will finally see me the way I see myself.
I'll be able to bond with women and flirt with men instead of feeling socially homeless.
Maybe one day I'll even fall in love and have someone love me back.
And you think a surgery can give you all that? Do you know the expression "you take yourself wherever you go"? I'm not myself, Dr.
Wallace, not yet.
And you think that Dr.
King can help you with that more than I can? I knew there was something between you two.
I just didn't think it was a competition.
What you've been through is very painful.
And there's no shame in that.
But to get past it, to get comfortable with who you are and who you want to be, you have to work through the pain, not smile through it.
Well, if you're that intent on making me miserable, Dr.
Wallace, we can talk about the day my father kicked me out of the house after he caught me trying on my mother's bra or the first time I went home with a man and got beaten up after he found out what I thought he already knew.
We can talk about the jobs I haven't gotten or the friends I've lost.
Just tell me what you want to hear.
All of it.
You're not gonna let me have the surgery, are you? Not yet.
Hey, got your text.
Yeah, um so I spent an hour yesterday - wrestling Zack to the ground.
- Oh, is he okay? Well, pot or no pot, his emotions are all over the place.
I gave him a sedative to calm him down so Sydney could take him home.
But while I am trying to find a long-term solution, - you're promising her a quick fix.
- Uh, no.
What I said was, you would find a way to help Zack.
Pardon me for having some confidence in your medical abilities.
Stop meddling.
Stop barging in.
What? Give me your key to the house, Cooper.
Forget it.
Violet gave it to me.
She's the only one who can ask for it back.
Oh, for God sake.
Would you grow up, Cooper? Believe me, I'll be sure to knock next time.
The image of your ass is permanently burned into my retinas.
And I'll grow the hell up when you do.
No.
Uh, you grow up first, and then I will grow up.
- No, you grow up first.
- No, you grow up first.
Just grow up.
If you grow up, I'll grow up.
I don't know whether to give them boxing gloves or a time-out.
Well, I know that Pete can take a punch.
Well, lately he can't take anything coming from Cooper.
- Yeah, I heard about the ass incide.
- It was not a big deal.
- Well, it wasn't your ass.
- He cannot tell me what to do.
My parents did that to each other, and I I hated it.
He's the man you love.
He's asking you to do something that's very important to him.
That's the thing about relationships even if it's not your ass, you still have to care.
You either have something against Jane or something against me, because that woman is damned if she does and damned if she doesn't with you.
I want to help her.
Then sign off on me doing the surgery.
You can give her what she wants, yes, - but not what she needs.
- I can change her life in a way no amount of jawboning ever will.
You really think so? A few flicks of a scalpel, reroute a little plumbing, and all of the insecurity and self-loathing that built up over her whole lifetime just just disappears? At least it's a start.
Why are you so invested in Jane? I grew up with a daddy who told me how sweet I was, taking care of two little brothers who still depend on me.
And I became a doctor because I couldn't imagine anything better than a job where, every day, you got to help people.
But somehow along the way, I developed a reputation as being cold and unemotional.
And now I'm the bitch.
Charlotte You gonna tell me it's not the case? I'm not asking you to cry for me, Sheldon.
I'm just asking you to help me spare someone more pain.
Jane's had way more than her share in this life.
What? You keep showing off your humanity like that we might actually become friends again.
What happened? He started again.
He flew into a rage.
- He started himself and hitting me.
- Did you give him anything, Sydney? - I just I couldn't handle it anymore.
- What'd you give him? I bought some weed off the street.
Tox screen positive for phencyclidine.
What's happening? What's happening? The marijuana you gave him was laced with P.
C.
P.
- B.
P.
's 180 over 120.
- He's in hypertensive crisis.
No.
- Give him 5 of lorazepam and start him on a nipride drip.
It looked the same as the stuff that I got from Dr.
Wilder.
Does it look the same now? Well, isn't that still what you want? More than anything.
Then I hope you'll continue to work with Dr.
Wallace.
I know, and I I understand.
I have work to do.
Will you call me and let me know how it's going? Of course.
Because we're just pushing off our date in the operating room, right? Jane it's gonna be okay.
One way or another.
* I could come across * * as easy * * oh, but every time time * * you leave me * * I want more * How is he? Uh, stable.
What the hell was she thinking? I don't know.
She almost killed him.
* Bring your love * Look, I know this is on me, too.
I prescribed her the pot in the first place.
You didn't know this would happen.
Damn it.
Yeah.
* Oh, 'cause there is no one else * Hey, this thing with Violet Uh, in the future, I will call first or not call as much, whichever.
Yeah.
Yeah.
* Bring your love * Hey.
Hey.
Do you remember these? Oh.
These are the plans we had drawn up for the fourth floor expansion.
Back when we thought we were gonna be so successful that we needed more space.
Things didn't exactly turn out the way we planned, did they? * Pass me by * Well, things aren't bad.
They're just, uh they're just different.
Yeah.
* I could come across * Why are you here? Oh.
I came to see how you were doing.
William.
Oh.
