Royal Pains s06e02 Episode Script
All in the Family
Previously on Royal Pains I'm Emma.
I'm a friend of Divya's.
I'm Emma.
I'm a friend of Jeremiah's.
Appletini, please.
- I'm Emma.
- Evan R.
Lawson.
Hi.
- Where did your friend go? - Emma said she was your friend.
She told me the same thing.
Emma told me she was a patient.
Who were you looking for today at Shadow Pond? I was looking for my father.
Well, who is your father? I've heard many different things about you.
Well, Emma has another one to add to the list The truth.
So with Hank back and the summer season here and Hankmed business picking up, you need to focus on work, and we need to take a backseat.
Okay, we do need to take a backseat but, uh, not because of me.
You're working full-time with Russell.
You're buying art.
You're selling art.
You're placing art.
You are helping to run the Hampton's office of Sutton and Chesterfield.
Like, that's that's huge.
Nothing's more important than that, nothing.
I love you.
I love you.
And I love the way this is going.
Can I jump in? Verbally, of course.
Because you Well, we have just done such amazing work these past few months.
I want to take a moment to acknowledge you Well, us.
Thank you.
Thanks, Bob.
We're really happy with how this has gone too.
Not gone going.
It's a journey.
Yeah, um, it's - You want me to do it? - Yeah.
We we feel that we are ready to conclude our journey Not our journey.
No.
No, we're we're great.
Um, our journey.
It's like you said last session.
I found my center.
- Paige found her center.
- Yeah.
So, really, we're totally centered.
If you really feel that way, far be it from me to deny you your feelings.
Congratulations.
Can I jump in, not verbally, physically? Sure.
- Henry.
- Hey.
You left me five voice mails.
What's the big emergency? We won at therapy, by the way.
I found my center.
That's great.
Listen, um What I'm about to say is gonna sound crazy, and there's really no way to couch it.
- Already bored.
- We have a sister.
- We have a sister? - We have a sister.
Her name's Emma Miller.
She's 18.
- Come on.
- I told you it's gonna sound crazy.
Where is this sister? Emma.
Her name's Emma.
And she's out on the patio.
Now, just tell me, are you up for meeting her, or do you need some time to process this first? Okay.
- Hi, there.
- Hi.
Oh, it's you.
- We met at the puja.
- Yeah.
Appletini, right? That's me.
So you're our sister, huh? Yeah.
I-I didn't say anything because I wasn't looking for you or for Hank.
Yeah, right, um, she came here to meet dad.
Dad? Yeah, I thought he was in the Hamptons.
Yeah, he's not.
He's in Mexico.
He's whale watching and staying in a yurt.
Yeah.
No, I filled her in.
So All right, uh, no offense or anything, but you just kind of showed up out of nowhere, so why should we believe you? I-I have DNA proof.
Oh, yeah.
No one has DNA proof these days.
Okay, um Honestly, this is why I wanted to talk to him, not you guys.
Does dad know about this? That she's in town, no.
That she exists, yeah.
- That was my first question.
- What? He deserted us.
He met my mom, Meredith, when they were both in St.
Louis Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Chapter ten, dad's book He talks about a Meredith.
I know.
I know.
Okay, I-I didn't mean to upset you guys.
This was a mistake.
I-I should have just waited to talk to him.
No, no, no, no.
Wait, Emma.
Please don't go.
Evan still needs some time to process this, and to be honest, so do I.
Okay, I'm going to Europe.
I can't really change my travel plans, um But here, uh Let me give you my contact information.
Um You know, maybe we can stay in touch.
You're on Instagram, right? Great.
What just happened? I lost my center.
I mean, this can't be true, Henry.
You know, I had the same reaction you did.
- But now that I've slept on it - I know.
Oh, it's ringing.
Voice mail.
Oh, just tell him on the voice mail.
Okay, uh, dad, look, I know it's gonna be tough to reach you this week, but - Just tell him.
- - In case you get this - Tell him.
- It's important that you call us.
- Tell him.
- Bye.
You didn't tell him.
I can't tell the man his daughter's here in a voice mail.
Oh, my God.
We don't know she's his daughter, Hank.
Why would she make it up? I can think of a million reasons why.
Okay, great.
Name one.
Maybe she believes he's her father, but she's mistaken.
Okay, think about this.
What if she's not mistaken? She is mistaken, Henry.
None of this fits.
It just It doesn't sound like dad.
You mean the guy who walked out on us, the guy who built a wind farm, the guy who served time? What if the new Eddie has been a complete lie? What else could dad be hiding? What if there are others, Henry? What if dad just fornicated his way across the country and we have 18 siblings we've never met? No, I'm not saying that.
I'm just saying let's try and hold our judgment on dad and Emma and all of this until we get the facts.
Yeah, Ken, you're really on death's door.
I'm not the patient, Hank.
He is.
That's a do-over.
Oh, uh, hi.
I'm Hank.
I'm a doctor who thought he was here to see Ken.
Hi.
I'm Aaron.
I'm the head tennis pro who told Ken I was fine.
I just had some nausea after dinner last night with him.
So far, that's not a symptom.
Oh, so you've eaten with Ken too? Yes, I have.
Seriously, I'm good.
Ken's just very overprotective of his clients.
Ah.
I wish he felt that way about his doctors.
Damn it.
Ken, you got to stop trying for so much topspin.
Yeah, a little less topspin, Ken.
Sorry, guys.
Never-stop-trying is my middle name, okay? It's hyphenated.
Oh, it's hyphenated.
She is so gonna kick his butt.
Fantastic.
I will clear my schedule.
On second thought, now that he reps her, she will let him win.
Oh, she's his client.
I thought she was yet another new girlfriend.
Tracy's my best pro And probably the best player in Hamptons right now.
She is the real deal.
She's special Damn it.
And also the reason I didn't call off your visit.
Tracy's game's been off.
It's her footwork, her timing It's just not right.
She says she feels great, but I think it has to do with her injury.
What happened? She tore her hamstring last year at the Tallassee open, dropped out of the tourney and dropped off the map.
She moved to Costa Rica and cut off the world.
Well, looks like she reconnected.
Yeah, I needed a female pro, and she wants to compete again.
But you don't think she's 100%.
At 90%, she could clean the court with just about anybody.
Ken saw her hit yesterday and insisted that I introduce him before some other agent snagged her.
- Of course.
- That's what dinner was last night.
- Ah.
- But something is not right.
If she's still hurt, she could reaggravate the injury, which would be bad for my business, but worse, it could end her career.
She's too good for that.
- Okay, I'll talk to her.
- No, don't.
- Now I'm confused.
- She'll think I said something.
Tracy is incredibly stubborn on the court and off.
I was thinking you could give physicals to all my pros.
I will need them for insurance at some point, and this way, Tracy doesn't feel singled out.
You've really thought this through.
Tennis pros aren't all just strong serves and great hair.
No, they're not.
- Ow! - Oh! That's gonna leave a mark.
- Oh, oh, Hank - I'm gonna Ken? Kenneth? Guess who has a blouse full of spit-up.
Oh, more importantly, guess who rolled over today.
Oh, Sashi.
She's developmentally on target.
Babies begin rolling over at approximately four months.
It won't be long before I have to worry about baby proofing.
Did we interrupt you? Oh, no, I was just typing up the the soap notes from last week's patients.
You are becoming a workaholic.
There's a lot to do running Hankmed.
I didn't realize how much until the summer season started.
Mm.
Um, now that Hank is back Do you think I'll go back to being just a Hankmed doctor? You should discuss that with Hank, but you should also know, as medical director, you've done a wonderful job.
I'm gonna change.
Would you mind holding Sashi for me? Not at all.
- Yes.
- Oh, okay.
Hello, Sashi.
How did it feel to roll over? Oh, no, not again, Jeremiah.
It's okay.
I take it as a sign she's comfortable with me.
And reflex is normal at this age.
If we were smart, we would invest in a dry-cleaning business.
Mm-hmm.
So, any chance you're free for a physical sometime? Physical? For me? Why? - Aaron had asked if - - Aaron asked you to give me a physical.
I said I was fine.
No, no, he asked me to schedule them for all the pros.
Plus, I did hear that you were injured.
I'm good.
Any part of you that's not good? Just some normal fatigue.
I'm clawing my way back into playing shape, working here, signing with Ken, and hopefully nailing a spot in the Palm Springs Tennis Classic.
Sounds exhausting.
I'll have plenty of time to be exhausted when I stop playing, but until then, I have to play every point as if my life depended on it.
Well, in order to help you do that, we should get you an MRI to make sure your hamstring looks as good as you feel.
- Sure.
- Okay, great.
Here it is Steamboat Eddie,chapter ten.
Ha-ha.
Meredith in italics St.
Louis, 1996.
"And even though Meredith and I were ships passing, I will never forget a saying she lived by.
" What? "For every action, there's a consequence.
" Well, there's an understatement.
It's kind of ironic, that's for sure.
Oh, my go where is she? She said noon.
It's 12:15.
To an 18-year-old, that's, like, 30 minutes early.
Relax.
Please Please stop saying relax.
I'm not relaxed, Paige.
I have a kid sister who showed up out of nowhere, and she's really nice, and she's smart.
But how do we how do we even know she's my sister? How do we know she's our sister, huh? Okay, Evan, think of what Bob would say.
Stay centered.
Breathe.
I'm not calling her a liar.
I'm just saying that why should we believe her, 'cause she just shows up and says it? She has DNA proof.
What are you, a molecular biologist all of a sudden? I'm sorry.
Honey, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
We don't know what she wants.
We don't know who she is.
We know nothing about her.
Which is why we are here to get her to come to dinner, but if you want to keep snapping at me, maybe you should be doing this by yourself.
No, no, I can't.
I need you.
Please.
Oh, there she is right there.
There goes my theory she's after dad's money.
What money? Hey.
Thanks.
Hey.
Sorry I'm late.
You must be Paige.
I'm Emma.
It's so nice to meet you.
Oh, uh, doing your homework? He, uh, doesn't believe I'm his sister.
I didn't say that.
I mean, it's fine.
I don't blame you.
If some kid showed up and said what I'm saying I'd call her a liar and tell her to shut the front door.
What did you say? What? That's a that's an expression that someone I know uses.
Eddie.
Listen, Emma, we're so happy you had the courage to come to the Hamptons and to meet Hank and Evan, and we just don't want you to get away without getting to know you Right, Evan? Right.
Yeah.
Well, it, uh, means a lot that you're even pretending, but unfortunately, I don't think I can.
- Well, that's too bad.
- Yeah.
By the way, I-I love your bag.
Is it from Berkeley's on Main? Yeah, how did you know? I saw it in their window.
Look, I'm having lunch, and I would love to talk more, but I actually have to get inside.
My friends are waiting.
I'm sorry.
Well, will you just think about coming to dinner tonight? I can't.
I have so much to do before Europe.
Sorry.
You should come.
I mean Yeah I think it would mean a lot to Us You know, all of us, and, uh And I'm not pretending.
Okay.
Who could say no to that? All right.
Here we go Well, maybe it's the common curse Maybe things get bad before they get worse I don't want to become someone Who can't live up to what I already done Don't keep it just to figure it out Well, it rains and pours And then it runs out Shh And just when I thought I could take no more Well, here comes a comeback The kid is back, he's back on track Bye.
There goes my hero He's the underdog Ah, I hope she's not overheating.
- Hank? - Yeah? I love how attentive you are to Sashi.
Wha oh.
Have I been helicoptering? Just a smidge.
I just want to make up for every smile, hiccup, and poopy diaper I missed.
Perfect.
So I'll call you at 2:00 A.
M.
and 5:00 A.
M.
every morning for the next 12 months.
Okay, all right, I'll back off.
You've probably got your hands full at Jeremiah's.
I mean, he must be constantly cleaning every surface, picking up every binky Actually, he has been surprisingly, shockingly serene.
I was worried that we would give him a nervous breakdown, but I think that the company is good for him.
I'm happy to hear that.
How much longer you think you can stay with him? I hate imposing.
I thought for sure we'd be gone by now, but after the C-section, - I needed the help.
- Right.
Well, if you ever need a place, you two can always crash with Uncle Hank.
That's very kind, and I'm not the only one with a new family member.
- How is all that going? - I don't know, you know.
You can't prepare for something like this.
- At first, I thought I was totally fine - Hey, guys.
I'm so sorry I'm late.
I had a lesson with the Sander twins.
They were locked in a five-set death match.
Most competitive eight-year-olds I've ever seen.
Hmm.
Uh, should we get started? Okay.
All right.
Blow, blow, blow, blow, blow.
Okay.
Everything looks good.
I'll call the hospital and let them know we're on our way.
Okay.
- The hospital? - Yeah, for the MRI.
Tracy, we want to make sure your hamstring is fully healed.
You don't want to reaggravate it.
I won't.
How can you be so sure? Because I I never had a torn hamstring, Hank.
I, um, had a broken heart.
That's why I quit playing.
I couldn't focus on tennis or on anything, so I faked the injury and then moved to Costa Rica to get as far away from the pain as possible.
I'm sorry.
Don't be.
I'm much better now.
You know what? Tennis saved me.
I realized how much I love it, and being back in the Hamptons has really helped me.
I My focus is back, and I am ready to play every point like my life depended on it.
You the doc? Yes, I'm Dr.
Jeremiah Sacani.
Whoops.
Yeah.
Um How did you get a knife stuck in your hand? It's pretty dead here in the afternoon, so I was teaching myself a knife trick.
Still kind of learning this one.
I had dinner at Benihana last week.
Anesthesia.
Okay, pretty good capillary refill.
Um, I should make sure you haven't injured any pertinent structures.
What are you doing? It's a digital Allen test, followed by a two-point discrimination.
When I let go, the blood should return to your hand in less than seven seconds.
Cool.
Can you move that thumb for me? Just a little.
And the index? Okay.
Ow.
Now, was that "ow" in one or two spots? - Two.
- Oh, great.
Um, it looks like you missed the superficial and the deep palmar arterial arches, as well as the flexor and extensor tendons and the digital nerves.
Fortunately, the knife landed parallel to the metacarpals in the proximal web space.
Well, I made sure not to remove the knife.
I know that's the worst thing you can do.
You're not supposed to take it out.
I can put it back in if you like.
So this place is quiet in the afternoon? Yeah, between 3:00 and 5:00 P.
M.
, it's a total graveyard.
Yeah, so I'm taking the year off before college, and I figured that New York would be the perfect stopover if I wanted to meet my father.
Does your mom know you're here? Yeah, she wasn't exactly thrilled at the idea.
I mean, she's not Eddie's biggest fan.
Right.
Well, we can understand how she feels.
You know what? On behalf of all Lawsons everywhere, let me apologize for dad walking out on you, 'cause it's well, we know; We've we've been there.
Yeah, we have.
- He's not the same guy he used to be.
- No.
Yeah, he really is a very sweet man.
- Mm-hmm.
- He's awesome.
He really is.
Oh, my gosh.
She is so cute.
How old is she about four months? - Exactly.
- Not bad.
- Do you like kids? - Yeah.
Yeah, I-I used to do a lot of babysitting at home.
Big Jim insisted that I learn about earning my own money.
Big Jim? Were you into wrestling back then? No, he was my mom's boyfriend.
He was this crazy-rich oil baron who swept us all off to Dallas where, you know, everything is bigger, or at least I thought until I saw this place.
- Is that where you go school? - Uh, went.
Yeah, um, right outside Dallas Um, Brampton Academy.
Oh, my gosh.
It was so Texas.
Girls' hair had, like, a minimum height requirement.
Emma, it's really nice just getting a chance to know you.
Is there any chance you could stay a little longer? Dad should be back in a few days.
Yeah.
Well, my friends and I have been planning this trip for so long.
- Could you change your ticket? - Maybe.
Um, the tag - Do you want some scissors? - Uh, no.
Just stay.
Europe's not going anywhere.
- It's been there for hundreds of years.
- Thousands.
Even better.
Yeah.
Okay.
Uh Okay, I'll see if the Blackstone can extend my reservation.
- Great.
- Yes.
Then it's settled.
Everyone raise a glass.
To Emma and how lucky we are to have the chance to make up for the 18 years we missed.
Ahh.
Hey, Hank.
Oh, hey, Tamra.
Surprised to see you out of the O.
C.
I'm surprised to see you.
Are you a member here? Well, you know how exclusive it is, so shh.
- So you're not a member.
- Not even close, no.
Well, I'm gonna head to the fitness studio and Nice seeing you.
Okay, bye.
Oh, love to Eddie and Sydney, Spencer, Sophia, and Ryan.
- Nailed it.
- Thank you.
- Hank.
- Hey, Aaron.
You want to hit? Uh, yeah, I just don't have a racket, sneakers, or talent.
Give me one lesson, and you can start hustling on the doctor circuit.
How about we do business first? I got the results from the physicals.
Almost everyone did great.
Almost everyone.
- You mean Tracy? - I mean you.
You're the only one who didn't show.
I run 6 miles a day and do 200 push-ups, 100 crunches, and play hours of tennis.
I'd know if there's something wrong with my body, and you should know there's something wrong with Tracy's.
Thank you.
I might take 10%, but I give 100%.
Guess who's playing in the Palm Springs Tennis Classic.
Guess whose genius made it happen.
Well, congratulations to both of you.
Pack your bags, baby, 'cause your days as a lowly club pro They're over.
No offense Harry? Hey, hey, you okay? That's it.
Now, exhale.
You okay? What do you think of my drop shot? I-I think it's just the heat.
Another one? He's been having headaches.
How did you know? Aaron, how long have you had them? Uh Since mid-May, since we got back from Costa Rica and and since the summer heat started.
I-I just need to drink more water.
I'm sorry.
You were both in Costa Rica? That's where Aaron tracked me down to convince me to come work here.
Is Tracy in danger too? She's got this tournament that I got her.
Ken, do you mind stepping away? I just I need to talk to them medically.
No, we have agent-client confidentiality.
Right, which would be great if that were a real thing.
It was worth a shot.
When you were in Costa Rica, did you two live in close quarters? No, we don't do that anymore.
We we dated but ended it last year.
Ah, okay, um, did any of you get any bug bites when you were there? Have you been to Costa Rica? When you get off the plane, they should welcome you with, "welcome to paradise.
You are no longer the top of the food chain.
" Okay, I need to draw some blood and test you both for parasites.
Parasites? Yeah, you could have something called Chagas Disease.
It's a tropical illness caused by triatomine bites.
These bugs are common in central America, and the bites can cause fevers, headaches, rashes, and severe body fatigue Symptoms that are especially problematic for an athlete.
But you said the physicals were clean.
Yeah, well, some parasitic infections don't show up in standard blood tests.
And if we have this Chagas Disease, is it treatable? Caught early, absolutely.
And if it's not caught early? Let's not worry about that now.
Too late.
- Sorry, Jeremiah! - No, that's okay.
Are Aaron and Tracy okay? Uh, hopefully.
We'll check their blood to make sure.
What about you? What about me? I'm a little worried about you, Hank.
I mean, there's no making fun of me.
There's no biting comments.
There's no eye rolls.
It's like you don't even care anymore.
It it's been a strange few days.
It turns out I have a sister.
Other than Evan? She's 18 A half sister, my father's daughter, and she just showed up here.
- Wow.
Surprise.
- Yeah, surprise.
You happy, sad, angry? - Yes.
- Let me guess Evan's freaking out, but you're stoic.
You're a lot like me, Hank.
A rock on the outside, but we feel very deeply in here.
Yeah.
It's it's been on my mind.
That's heavy stuff.
I don't know what to think.
I dug out from underneath his craziness, but now it's all back, you know, after I finally make peace with him and and how he's changed.
And all along, he's had another kid Hmm.
This sweet girl.
I'm having trouble remembering all the reasons I forgave him, you know.
It's just it's hard to know what's real.
We've got doctor-patient confidentiality, right? Unfortunately, yes.
Growing up, we were always competitive, even though I always won.
Well, I don't know about that.
And now I look at you sometimes, and I-I envy you.
I mean, you got a lot of people who love you, all these people who matter to you.
No matter how many long-lost siblings pop up and no matter what your crazy father's doing, you're always gonna have those people keeping you strong.
That is real.
This girl has no idea how lucky she is to have you as a brother.
- Thanks, man.
- Yeah, bring it in.
- What? - Bring it in.
Come on.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
All right? And if you tell anyone I said any of this stuff, I'm gonna sue you within an inch of your life.
I can assure you no one will ever know this happened.
Okay.
You sure you're all right? I told you I'm fine.
It's just, when we run, I'm always having to catch up to you, so I'm used to following the back of your head.
Yes, just like this.
This is great.
Perfect.
I'm sensing I'm just sensing that you're still mad at me.
What's going on? Is it Bob? Is it 'cause we'd normally be in session with Bob right now? No, it's it's It's not you or Bob.
It's Emma.
You're not buying the whole half sister thing either, huh? It's not that.
Um Last night at dinner, it seemed like she was trying too hard All the talk about boarding school, and when I noticed the dress she was wearing still had the tag on it, she looked really uncomfortable.
Okay, well, I mean, she could have just been embarrassed that you saw it, though.
Well, I wondered the same thing.
So I called her this morning at the Blackstone to apologize and was told that no one with her name was staying there.
She could have just registered under a different name.
I mean, she wouldn't be the first wealthy person to want to keep her identity a secret, right? Maybe I see my younger self in Emma - Uh-huh.
- All that privilege but still feeling like she has to prove herself.
Evan, she bought a new dress just to have dinner with us.
I think she's insecure and probably very impressionable.
You're worried about her.
I-I know you have questions, but we don't know the people she's hanging out with.
I mean, what are they doing there so late at night? Are they a bad influence? I didn't think much about it when he told me, but when Hank drove her back to the Blackstone last night, she actually had him take her to the Flying Point instead, said she wanted to meet some friends.
And did Hank meet any of these friends at the Flying Point? We don't know how old they are.
Don't forget Emma's underage.
No, she insisted that he drop her off.
You see what I mean? Well, maybe we should meet these friends of hers.
Sure, I know her.
Follow me.
Emma? Evan, this way.
Why are we going in the kitchen? - Hey.
- Oh, hello.
I was just dropping off diapers for Divya.
She ran out.
Oh, well, that was nice of you.
Are you leaving? Uh, well, since my house is empty, I thought I would go there and catch up on work.
Right.
Um Before you do Jeremiah, I-I don't know if I ever thanked you for taking over and and running Hankmed while I was gone.
It it was a great responsibility, which I-I took very seriously.
I know.
Last summer We had our issues.
Do you think we can ever get back to where we once were? - No, I don't.
- Oh.
We don't have to go backwards in order to move forwards.
That was then, and a lot's happened since, and I-I do enjoy working for Hankmed.
Oh, well, I'm very glad to hear that.
So I assume, now that you're back, you'll want to resume running the company.
Honestly, no.
I don't.
It's been heaven just treating patients.
Jeremiah, how would you feel about continuing to be Hankmed's medical director? Great.
Great.
Your blood smears are clean.
Hank, I'm sorry if I was difficult earlier.
I'm a concierge doctor in the Hamptons.
That wasn't difficult.
You don't want to challenge me.
I'm very competitive.
Okay.
Aaron, Aaron, you're not done yet.
Tracy, are you okay? Tracy? Tracy? Tracy? Uh, not yet, Tracy.
Not yet.
She doesn't look good.
Aaron, I'll take care of her.
Aaron, let's take those leads off and get you some water.
Okay.
Huh, these delta waves weren't present during your physical.
So why are they there now? They only appear when you're having an attack.
It's called Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.
What is it? It's a disorder of the electrical system of your heart, which can cause irregular heartbeats.
You've probably had it your whole life, though it's only started to manifest itself now, which is common.
That's why my game's been off.
But now that we know you have it, it can be easily controlled with medications.
Tracy, I said it can be easily controlled.
I heard you.
Then why do you look so anxious? Because there's one thing you haven't told me yet.
Can I still play tennis? As if your life depended on it.
Okay.
I know you're worried, but you shouldn't be.
Hank will take care of everything So Tracy's gonna be fine.
- Oh, thank God.
- That's great news.
Uh, Divya, would you give me a moment with Aaron? Of course.
Are you in love with Tracy? Am I what? I told you we ended it last year.
I-I know.
I know.
But your symptoms seem to be Tracy-based.
They come on when you're concerned for her safety or worried about her leaving.
- "Tracy-based"? - Mm-hmm.
That's quite a diagnosis.
Did you go to medical school for that? The nausea at dinner with Keller and Tracy.
You collapsed when you heard she got into the tournament and could be leaving the club, and just now you were having trouble breathing when she went down.
When Tracy and I dated, it was pretty serious.
We hung out a lot.
I broke up with her last year during the tournament to focus on my game.
It crushed her, and little did I know how much it crushed me too.
I was so in love with her.
And when she came back here, I realized that I still am.
I don't want to lose her again.
You don't have a Costa Rica infection.
I think you're suffering from anxiety.
Anxiety? Anxiety wouldn't make me hyperventilate, wouldn't make me collapse.
You go to medical school for that? Huh.
So what do I do? Well I can prescribe you some antianxiety medications, or you could just go out there and talk to her.
Okay.
Good luck.
We just feel horrible.
I mean, we had no idea she was washing dishes.
We just wanted to make sure she was okay.
- We did - In through the nose, Evan.
I'm afraid we chased her away.
You tried to help.
As you both know, it's the journey that matters most Not just yours, Emma's too.
She just looked so defensive.
She knew we knew she'd been pretending to be rich, so she just took off, and we don't know where she went.
We don't know where she went.
We don't know if she's okay.
Your concern for her is admirable, but Emma's not here.
You are.
You came back.
Why? We need to talk about your journey, not Emma's.
- That's it.
- What's it? The ferry.
- She's going home.
- Of course.
- Let's go.
- Right.
No, no, wait.
Call Hank and tell him to look for her at the ferry.
There's one stop I think Emma needs to make before she takes off.
This isn't a rental shop, dear.
You don't just take what you want and then return it when you're done.
That's not what I did.
It's exactly what you did, twice.
Please, give me my money back.
Should we call the police? Mr.
and Mrs.
Lawson, how nice to see you both.
Hi, there.
Everything okay here? Everything's fine.
Just a young lady trying to take advantage.
This is Emma.
She happens to be my sister, actually.
I bought these clothes, and now she won't give me my money back.
Really? I'm afraid that's not quite the whole truth.
- She wore the items.
- No, I didn't.
Meryl, it seems to me your return policy is clearly displayed.
- Yes, Mrs.
Lawson, but - Then give Emma her money back.
Right away, Mrs.
Lawson.
Thank you.
Well, she did not like me.
Hold on a second.
What do you expect? You bought and wore those clothes knowing you were gonna return them.
Well, yeah, I mean, technically, that's allowed.
Yeah, but you lied.
You shouldn't do that, Emma.
You shouldn't lie to people - Not to that woman in there.
- Or to us.
Yeah.
Look, we should talk.
Sure.
Not here, though, back home.
Okay.
I didn't just come here to meet Eddie.
I came here to show him how well I've done without him.
I mean, if he doesn't need me, then I sure as hell don't need him.
But when I saw how you guys live, I mean, I realized that my real story wasn't going to impress him.
Wait a second, I'm sorry.
Your real story? Yeah, what does that mean? My mom never found an oil baron.
I'm the manager of a diner in St.
Louis.
There's no Brampton Academy, and there is no fancy adventure in my future.
Well, I mean Unless you consider the bus ride back home fancy.
Why did you make it all up? Well, I realized that my real story wasn't gonna impress anyone in the Hamptons or any of you, and that's when I bought the nice clothes, and I had to get the job for cash.
- But you were driving a BMW.
- That's right.
No one is ever nice to the valet.
I slipped him some money to borrow the car.
The last thing I wanted to do was to show up here like I was asking for something.
I'm sorry I lied to you guys.
Well, for what it's worth, Emma, I'm more impressed by your real story than the one you made up.
Emma, you don't ever have to pretend with us.
You are family, and we want you to stay now more than ever.
Yeah.
We want to get to know you, the real you.
I mean, I You have an amazing family.
I don't want to mess that up.
Okay, what's the matter? I heard the tone in the voice mail.
I tried to call.
I know when my children need me.
Do you know when I need you? I'm so sorry.
We haven't been introduced.
Eddie R.
Lawson.
I'm Hank and Evan's dad.
Why do you look so familiar? I'm Emma Your daughter.
Dad Do you remember Meredith? So you're Meredith's child.
So why don't we just cut to the chase? What does Meredith want, and why are you here?
I'm a friend of Divya's.
I'm Emma.
I'm a friend of Jeremiah's.
Appletini, please.
- I'm Emma.
- Evan R.
Lawson.
Hi.
- Where did your friend go? - Emma said she was your friend.
She told me the same thing.
Emma told me she was a patient.
Who were you looking for today at Shadow Pond? I was looking for my father.
Well, who is your father? I've heard many different things about you.
Well, Emma has another one to add to the list The truth.
So with Hank back and the summer season here and Hankmed business picking up, you need to focus on work, and we need to take a backseat.
Okay, we do need to take a backseat but, uh, not because of me.
You're working full-time with Russell.
You're buying art.
You're selling art.
You're placing art.
You are helping to run the Hampton's office of Sutton and Chesterfield.
Like, that's that's huge.
Nothing's more important than that, nothing.
I love you.
I love you.
And I love the way this is going.
Can I jump in? Verbally, of course.
Because you Well, we have just done such amazing work these past few months.
I want to take a moment to acknowledge you Well, us.
Thank you.
Thanks, Bob.
We're really happy with how this has gone too.
Not gone going.
It's a journey.
Yeah, um, it's - You want me to do it? - Yeah.
We we feel that we are ready to conclude our journey Not our journey.
No.
No, we're we're great.
Um, our journey.
It's like you said last session.
I found my center.
- Paige found her center.
- Yeah.
So, really, we're totally centered.
If you really feel that way, far be it from me to deny you your feelings.
Congratulations.
Can I jump in, not verbally, physically? Sure.
- Henry.
- Hey.
You left me five voice mails.
What's the big emergency? We won at therapy, by the way.
I found my center.
That's great.
Listen, um What I'm about to say is gonna sound crazy, and there's really no way to couch it.
- Already bored.
- We have a sister.
- We have a sister? - We have a sister.
Her name's Emma Miller.
She's 18.
- Come on.
- I told you it's gonna sound crazy.
Where is this sister? Emma.
Her name's Emma.
And she's out on the patio.
Now, just tell me, are you up for meeting her, or do you need some time to process this first? Okay.
- Hi, there.
- Hi.
Oh, it's you.
- We met at the puja.
- Yeah.
Appletini, right? That's me.
So you're our sister, huh? Yeah.
I-I didn't say anything because I wasn't looking for you or for Hank.
Yeah, right, um, she came here to meet dad.
Dad? Yeah, I thought he was in the Hamptons.
Yeah, he's not.
He's in Mexico.
He's whale watching and staying in a yurt.
Yeah.
No, I filled her in.
So All right, uh, no offense or anything, but you just kind of showed up out of nowhere, so why should we believe you? I-I have DNA proof.
Oh, yeah.
No one has DNA proof these days.
Okay, um Honestly, this is why I wanted to talk to him, not you guys.
Does dad know about this? That she's in town, no.
That she exists, yeah.
- That was my first question.
- What? He deserted us.
He met my mom, Meredith, when they were both in St.
Louis Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Chapter ten, dad's book He talks about a Meredith.
I know.
I know.
Okay, I-I didn't mean to upset you guys.
This was a mistake.
I-I should have just waited to talk to him.
No, no, no, no.
Wait, Emma.
Please don't go.
Evan still needs some time to process this, and to be honest, so do I.
Okay, I'm going to Europe.
I can't really change my travel plans, um But here, uh Let me give you my contact information.
Um You know, maybe we can stay in touch.
You're on Instagram, right? Great.
What just happened? I lost my center.
I mean, this can't be true, Henry.
You know, I had the same reaction you did.
- But now that I've slept on it - I know.
Oh, it's ringing.
Voice mail.
Oh, just tell him on the voice mail.
Okay, uh, dad, look, I know it's gonna be tough to reach you this week, but - Just tell him.
- - In case you get this - Tell him.
- It's important that you call us.
- Tell him.
- Bye.
You didn't tell him.
I can't tell the man his daughter's here in a voice mail.
Oh, my God.
We don't know she's his daughter, Hank.
Why would she make it up? I can think of a million reasons why.
Okay, great.
Name one.
Maybe she believes he's her father, but she's mistaken.
Okay, think about this.
What if she's not mistaken? She is mistaken, Henry.
None of this fits.
It just It doesn't sound like dad.
You mean the guy who walked out on us, the guy who built a wind farm, the guy who served time? What if the new Eddie has been a complete lie? What else could dad be hiding? What if there are others, Henry? What if dad just fornicated his way across the country and we have 18 siblings we've never met? No, I'm not saying that.
I'm just saying let's try and hold our judgment on dad and Emma and all of this until we get the facts.
Yeah, Ken, you're really on death's door.
I'm not the patient, Hank.
He is.
That's a do-over.
Oh, uh, hi.
I'm Hank.
I'm a doctor who thought he was here to see Ken.
Hi.
I'm Aaron.
I'm the head tennis pro who told Ken I was fine.
I just had some nausea after dinner last night with him.
So far, that's not a symptom.
Oh, so you've eaten with Ken too? Yes, I have.
Seriously, I'm good.
Ken's just very overprotective of his clients.
Ah.
I wish he felt that way about his doctors.
Damn it.
Ken, you got to stop trying for so much topspin.
Yeah, a little less topspin, Ken.
Sorry, guys.
Never-stop-trying is my middle name, okay? It's hyphenated.
Oh, it's hyphenated.
She is so gonna kick his butt.
Fantastic.
I will clear my schedule.
On second thought, now that he reps her, she will let him win.
Oh, she's his client.
I thought she was yet another new girlfriend.
Tracy's my best pro And probably the best player in Hamptons right now.
She is the real deal.
She's special Damn it.
And also the reason I didn't call off your visit.
Tracy's game's been off.
It's her footwork, her timing It's just not right.
She says she feels great, but I think it has to do with her injury.
What happened? She tore her hamstring last year at the Tallassee open, dropped out of the tourney and dropped off the map.
She moved to Costa Rica and cut off the world.
Well, looks like she reconnected.
Yeah, I needed a female pro, and she wants to compete again.
But you don't think she's 100%.
At 90%, she could clean the court with just about anybody.
Ken saw her hit yesterday and insisted that I introduce him before some other agent snagged her.
- Of course.
- That's what dinner was last night.
- Ah.
- But something is not right.
If she's still hurt, she could reaggravate the injury, which would be bad for my business, but worse, it could end her career.
She's too good for that.
- Okay, I'll talk to her.
- No, don't.
- Now I'm confused.
- She'll think I said something.
Tracy is incredibly stubborn on the court and off.
I was thinking you could give physicals to all my pros.
I will need them for insurance at some point, and this way, Tracy doesn't feel singled out.
You've really thought this through.
Tennis pros aren't all just strong serves and great hair.
No, they're not.
- Ow! - Oh! That's gonna leave a mark.
- Oh, oh, Hank - I'm gonna Ken? Kenneth? Guess who has a blouse full of spit-up.
Oh, more importantly, guess who rolled over today.
Oh, Sashi.
She's developmentally on target.
Babies begin rolling over at approximately four months.
It won't be long before I have to worry about baby proofing.
Did we interrupt you? Oh, no, I was just typing up the the soap notes from last week's patients.
You are becoming a workaholic.
There's a lot to do running Hankmed.
I didn't realize how much until the summer season started.
Mm.
Um, now that Hank is back Do you think I'll go back to being just a Hankmed doctor? You should discuss that with Hank, but you should also know, as medical director, you've done a wonderful job.
I'm gonna change.
Would you mind holding Sashi for me? Not at all.
- Yes.
- Oh, okay.
Hello, Sashi.
How did it feel to roll over? Oh, no, not again, Jeremiah.
It's okay.
I take it as a sign she's comfortable with me.
And reflex is normal at this age.
If we were smart, we would invest in a dry-cleaning business.
Mm-hmm.
So, any chance you're free for a physical sometime? Physical? For me? Why? - Aaron had asked if - - Aaron asked you to give me a physical.
I said I was fine.
No, no, he asked me to schedule them for all the pros.
Plus, I did hear that you were injured.
I'm good.
Any part of you that's not good? Just some normal fatigue.
I'm clawing my way back into playing shape, working here, signing with Ken, and hopefully nailing a spot in the Palm Springs Tennis Classic.
Sounds exhausting.
I'll have plenty of time to be exhausted when I stop playing, but until then, I have to play every point as if my life depended on it.
Well, in order to help you do that, we should get you an MRI to make sure your hamstring looks as good as you feel.
- Sure.
- Okay, great.
Here it is Steamboat Eddie,chapter ten.
Ha-ha.
Meredith in italics St.
Louis, 1996.
"And even though Meredith and I were ships passing, I will never forget a saying she lived by.
" What? "For every action, there's a consequence.
" Well, there's an understatement.
It's kind of ironic, that's for sure.
Oh, my go where is she? She said noon.
It's 12:15.
To an 18-year-old, that's, like, 30 minutes early.
Relax.
Please Please stop saying relax.
I'm not relaxed, Paige.
I have a kid sister who showed up out of nowhere, and she's really nice, and she's smart.
But how do we how do we even know she's my sister? How do we know she's our sister, huh? Okay, Evan, think of what Bob would say.
Stay centered.
Breathe.
I'm not calling her a liar.
I'm just saying that why should we believe her, 'cause she just shows up and says it? She has DNA proof.
What are you, a molecular biologist all of a sudden? I'm sorry.
Honey, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
We don't know what she wants.
We don't know who she is.
We know nothing about her.
Which is why we are here to get her to come to dinner, but if you want to keep snapping at me, maybe you should be doing this by yourself.
No, no, I can't.
I need you.
Please.
Oh, there she is right there.
There goes my theory she's after dad's money.
What money? Hey.
Thanks.
Hey.
Sorry I'm late.
You must be Paige.
I'm Emma.
It's so nice to meet you.
Oh, uh, doing your homework? He, uh, doesn't believe I'm his sister.
I didn't say that.
I mean, it's fine.
I don't blame you.
If some kid showed up and said what I'm saying I'd call her a liar and tell her to shut the front door.
What did you say? What? That's a that's an expression that someone I know uses.
Eddie.
Listen, Emma, we're so happy you had the courage to come to the Hamptons and to meet Hank and Evan, and we just don't want you to get away without getting to know you Right, Evan? Right.
Yeah.
Well, it, uh, means a lot that you're even pretending, but unfortunately, I don't think I can.
- Well, that's too bad.
- Yeah.
By the way, I-I love your bag.
Is it from Berkeley's on Main? Yeah, how did you know? I saw it in their window.
Look, I'm having lunch, and I would love to talk more, but I actually have to get inside.
My friends are waiting.
I'm sorry.
Well, will you just think about coming to dinner tonight? I can't.
I have so much to do before Europe.
Sorry.
You should come.
I mean Yeah I think it would mean a lot to Us You know, all of us, and, uh And I'm not pretending.
Okay.
Who could say no to that? All right.
Here we go Well, maybe it's the common curse Maybe things get bad before they get worse I don't want to become someone Who can't live up to what I already done Don't keep it just to figure it out Well, it rains and pours And then it runs out Shh And just when I thought I could take no more Well, here comes a comeback The kid is back, he's back on track Bye.
There goes my hero He's the underdog Ah, I hope she's not overheating.
- Hank? - Yeah? I love how attentive you are to Sashi.
Wha oh.
Have I been helicoptering? Just a smidge.
I just want to make up for every smile, hiccup, and poopy diaper I missed.
Perfect.
So I'll call you at 2:00 A.
M.
and 5:00 A.
M.
every morning for the next 12 months.
Okay, all right, I'll back off.
You've probably got your hands full at Jeremiah's.
I mean, he must be constantly cleaning every surface, picking up every binky Actually, he has been surprisingly, shockingly serene.
I was worried that we would give him a nervous breakdown, but I think that the company is good for him.
I'm happy to hear that.
How much longer you think you can stay with him? I hate imposing.
I thought for sure we'd be gone by now, but after the C-section, - I needed the help.
- Right.
Well, if you ever need a place, you two can always crash with Uncle Hank.
That's very kind, and I'm not the only one with a new family member.
- How is all that going? - I don't know, you know.
You can't prepare for something like this.
- At first, I thought I was totally fine - Hey, guys.
I'm so sorry I'm late.
I had a lesson with the Sander twins.
They were locked in a five-set death match.
Most competitive eight-year-olds I've ever seen.
Hmm.
Uh, should we get started? Okay.
All right.
Blow, blow, blow, blow, blow.
Okay.
Everything looks good.
I'll call the hospital and let them know we're on our way.
Okay.
- The hospital? - Yeah, for the MRI.
Tracy, we want to make sure your hamstring is fully healed.
You don't want to reaggravate it.
I won't.
How can you be so sure? Because I I never had a torn hamstring, Hank.
I, um, had a broken heart.
That's why I quit playing.
I couldn't focus on tennis or on anything, so I faked the injury and then moved to Costa Rica to get as far away from the pain as possible.
I'm sorry.
Don't be.
I'm much better now.
You know what? Tennis saved me.
I realized how much I love it, and being back in the Hamptons has really helped me.
I My focus is back, and I am ready to play every point like my life depended on it.
You the doc? Yes, I'm Dr.
Jeremiah Sacani.
Whoops.
Yeah.
Um How did you get a knife stuck in your hand? It's pretty dead here in the afternoon, so I was teaching myself a knife trick.
Still kind of learning this one.
I had dinner at Benihana last week.
Anesthesia.
Okay, pretty good capillary refill.
Um, I should make sure you haven't injured any pertinent structures.
What are you doing? It's a digital Allen test, followed by a two-point discrimination.
When I let go, the blood should return to your hand in less than seven seconds.
Cool.
Can you move that thumb for me? Just a little.
And the index? Okay.
Ow.
Now, was that "ow" in one or two spots? - Two.
- Oh, great.
Um, it looks like you missed the superficial and the deep palmar arterial arches, as well as the flexor and extensor tendons and the digital nerves.
Fortunately, the knife landed parallel to the metacarpals in the proximal web space.
Well, I made sure not to remove the knife.
I know that's the worst thing you can do.
You're not supposed to take it out.
I can put it back in if you like.
So this place is quiet in the afternoon? Yeah, between 3:00 and 5:00 P.
M.
, it's a total graveyard.
Yeah, so I'm taking the year off before college, and I figured that New York would be the perfect stopover if I wanted to meet my father.
Does your mom know you're here? Yeah, she wasn't exactly thrilled at the idea.
I mean, she's not Eddie's biggest fan.
Right.
Well, we can understand how she feels.
You know what? On behalf of all Lawsons everywhere, let me apologize for dad walking out on you, 'cause it's well, we know; We've we've been there.
Yeah, we have.
- He's not the same guy he used to be.
- No.
Yeah, he really is a very sweet man.
- Mm-hmm.
- He's awesome.
He really is.
Oh, my gosh.
She is so cute.
How old is she about four months? - Exactly.
- Not bad.
- Do you like kids? - Yeah.
Yeah, I-I used to do a lot of babysitting at home.
Big Jim insisted that I learn about earning my own money.
Big Jim? Were you into wrestling back then? No, he was my mom's boyfriend.
He was this crazy-rich oil baron who swept us all off to Dallas where, you know, everything is bigger, or at least I thought until I saw this place.
- Is that where you go school? - Uh, went.
Yeah, um, right outside Dallas Um, Brampton Academy.
Oh, my gosh.
It was so Texas.
Girls' hair had, like, a minimum height requirement.
Emma, it's really nice just getting a chance to know you.
Is there any chance you could stay a little longer? Dad should be back in a few days.
Yeah.
Well, my friends and I have been planning this trip for so long.
- Could you change your ticket? - Maybe.
Um, the tag - Do you want some scissors? - Uh, no.
Just stay.
Europe's not going anywhere.
- It's been there for hundreds of years.
- Thousands.
Even better.
Yeah.
Okay.
Uh Okay, I'll see if the Blackstone can extend my reservation.
- Great.
- Yes.
Then it's settled.
Everyone raise a glass.
To Emma and how lucky we are to have the chance to make up for the 18 years we missed.
Ahh.
Hey, Hank.
Oh, hey, Tamra.
Surprised to see you out of the O.
C.
I'm surprised to see you.
Are you a member here? Well, you know how exclusive it is, so shh.
- So you're not a member.
- Not even close, no.
Well, I'm gonna head to the fitness studio and Nice seeing you.
Okay, bye.
Oh, love to Eddie and Sydney, Spencer, Sophia, and Ryan.
- Nailed it.
- Thank you.
- Hank.
- Hey, Aaron.
You want to hit? Uh, yeah, I just don't have a racket, sneakers, or talent.
Give me one lesson, and you can start hustling on the doctor circuit.
How about we do business first? I got the results from the physicals.
Almost everyone did great.
Almost everyone.
- You mean Tracy? - I mean you.
You're the only one who didn't show.
I run 6 miles a day and do 200 push-ups, 100 crunches, and play hours of tennis.
I'd know if there's something wrong with my body, and you should know there's something wrong with Tracy's.
Thank you.
I might take 10%, but I give 100%.
Guess who's playing in the Palm Springs Tennis Classic.
Guess whose genius made it happen.
Well, congratulations to both of you.
Pack your bags, baby, 'cause your days as a lowly club pro They're over.
No offense Harry? Hey, hey, you okay? That's it.
Now, exhale.
You okay? What do you think of my drop shot? I-I think it's just the heat.
Another one? He's been having headaches.
How did you know? Aaron, how long have you had them? Uh Since mid-May, since we got back from Costa Rica and and since the summer heat started.
I-I just need to drink more water.
I'm sorry.
You were both in Costa Rica? That's where Aaron tracked me down to convince me to come work here.
Is Tracy in danger too? She's got this tournament that I got her.
Ken, do you mind stepping away? I just I need to talk to them medically.
No, we have agent-client confidentiality.
Right, which would be great if that were a real thing.
It was worth a shot.
When you were in Costa Rica, did you two live in close quarters? No, we don't do that anymore.
We we dated but ended it last year.
Ah, okay, um, did any of you get any bug bites when you were there? Have you been to Costa Rica? When you get off the plane, they should welcome you with, "welcome to paradise.
You are no longer the top of the food chain.
" Okay, I need to draw some blood and test you both for parasites.
Parasites? Yeah, you could have something called Chagas Disease.
It's a tropical illness caused by triatomine bites.
These bugs are common in central America, and the bites can cause fevers, headaches, rashes, and severe body fatigue Symptoms that are especially problematic for an athlete.
But you said the physicals were clean.
Yeah, well, some parasitic infections don't show up in standard blood tests.
And if we have this Chagas Disease, is it treatable? Caught early, absolutely.
And if it's not caught early? Let's not worry about that now.
Too late.
- Sorry, Jeremiah! - No, that's okay.
Are Aaron and Tracy okay? Uh, hopefully.
We'll check their blood to make sure.
What about you? What about me? I'm a little worried about you, Hank.
I mean, there's no making fun of me.
There's no biting comments.
There's no eye rolls.
It's like you don't even care anymore.
It it's been a strange few days.
It turns out I have a sister.
Other than Evan? She's 18 A half sister, my father's daughter, and she just showed up here.
- Wow.
Surprise.
- Yeah, surprise.
You happy, sad, angry? - Yes.
- Let me guess Evan's freaking out, but you're stoic.
You're a lot like me, Hank.
A rock on the outside, but we feel very deeply in here.
Yeah.
It's it's been on my mind.
That's heavy stuff.
I don't know what to think.
I dug out from underneath his craziness, but now it's all back, you know, after I finally make peace with him and and how he's changed.
And all along, he's had another kid Hmm.
This sweet girl.
I'm having trouble remembering all the reasons I forgave him, you know.
It's just it's hard to know what's real.
We've got doctor-patient confidentiality, right? Unfortunately, yes.
Growing up, we were always competitive, even though I always won.
Well, I don't know about that.
And now I look at you sometimes, and I-I envy you.
I mean, you got a lot of people who love you, all these people who matter to you.
No matter how many long-lost siblings pop up and no matter what your crazy father's doing, you're always gonna have those people keeping you strong.
That is real.
This girl has no idea how lucky she is to have you as a brother.
- Thanks, man.
- Yeah, bring it in.
- What? - Bring it in.
Come on.
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
All right? And if you tell anyone I said any of this stuff, I'm gonna sue you within an inch of your life.
I can assure you no one will ever know this happened.
Okay.
You sure you're all right? I told you I'm fine.
It's just, when we run, I'm always having to catch up to you, so I'm used to following the back of your head.
Yes, just like this.
This is great.
Perfect.
I'm sensing I'm just sensing that you're still mad at me.
What's going on? Is it Bob? Is it 'cause we'd normally be in session with Bob right now? No, it's it's It's not you or Bob.
It's Emma.
You're not buying the whole half sister thing either, huh? It's not that.
Um Last night at dinner, it seemed like she was trying too hard All the talk about boarding school, and when I noticed the dress she was wearing still had the tag on it, she looked really uncomfortable.
Okay, well, I mean, she could have just been embarrassed that you saw it, though.
Well, I wondered the same thing.
So I called her this morning at the Blackstone to apologize and was told that no one with her name was staying there.
She could have just registered under a different name.
I mean, she wouldn't be the first wealthy person to want to keep her identity a secret, right? Maybe I see my younger self in Emma - Uh-huh.
- All that privilege but still feeling like she has to prove herself.
Evan, she bought a new dress just to have dinner with us.
I think she's insecure and probably very impressionable.
You're worried about her.
I-I know you have questions, but we don't know the people she's hanging out with.
I mean, what are they doing there so late at night? Are they a bad influence? I didn't think much about it when he told me, but when Hank drove her back to the Blackstone last night, she actually had him take her to the Flying Point instead, said she wanted to meet some friends.
And did Hank meet any of these friends at the Flying Point? We don't know how old they are.
Don't forget Emma's underage.
No, she insisted that he drop her off.
You see what I mean? Well, maybe we should meet these friends of hers.
Sure, I know her.
Follow me.
Emma? Evan, this way.
Why are we going in the kitchen? - Hey.
- Oh, hello.
I was just dropping off diapers for Divya.
She ran out.
Oh, well, that was nice of you.
Are you leaving? Uh, well, since my house is empty, I thought I would go there and catch up on work.
Right.
Um Before you do Jeremiah, I-I don't know if I ever thanked you for taking over and and running Hankmed while I was gone.
It it was a great responsibility, which I-I took very seriously.
I know.
Last summer We had our issues.
Do you think we can ever get back to where we once were? - No, I don't.
- Oh.
We don't have to go backwards in order to move forwards.
That was then, and a lot's happened since, and I-I do enjoy working for Hankmed.
Oh, well, I'm very glad to hear that.
So I assume, now that you're back, you'll want to resume running the company.
Honestly, no.
I don't.
It's been heaven just treating patients.
Jeremiah, how would you feel about continuing to be Hankmed's medical director? Great.
Great.
Your blood smears are clean.
Hank, I'm sorry if I was difficult earlier.
I'm a concierge doctor in the Hamptons.
That wasn't difficult.
You don't want to challenge me.
I'm very competitive.
Okay.
Aaron, Aaron, you're not done yet.
Tracy, are you okay? Tracy? Tracy? Tracy? Uh, not yet, Tracy.
Not yet.
She doesn't look good.
Aaron, I'll take care of her.
Aaron, let's take those leads off and get you some water.
Okay.
Huh, these delta waves weren't present during your physical.
So why are they there now? They only appear when you're having an attack.
It's called Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome.
What is it? It's a disorder of the electrical system of your heart, which can cause irregular heartbeats.
You've probably had it your whole life, though it's only started to manifest itself now, which is common.
That's why my game's been off.
But now that we know you have it, it can be easily controlled with medications.
Tracy, I said it can be easily controlled.
I heard you.
Then why do you look so anxious? Because there's one thing you haven't told me yet.
Can I still play tennis? As if your life depended on it.
Okay.
I know you're worried, but you shouldn't be.
Hank will take care of everything So Tracy's gonna be fine.
- Oh, thank God.
- That's great news.
Uh, Divya, would you give me a moment with Aaron? Of course.
Are you in love with Tracy? Am I what? I told you we ended it last year.
I-I know.
I know.
But your symptoms seem to be Tracy-based.
They come on when you're concerned for her safety or worried about her leaving.
- "Tracy-based"? - Mm-hmm.
That's quite a diagnosis.
Did you go to medical school for that? The nausea at dinner with Keller and Tracy.
You collapsed when you heard she got into the tournament and could be leaving the club, and just now you were having trouble breathing when she went down.
When Tracy and I dated, it was pretty serious.
We hung out a lot.
I broke up with her last year during the tournament to focus on my game.
It crushed her, and little did I know how much it crushed me too.
I was so in love with her.
And when she came back here, I realized that I still am.
I don't want to lose her again.
You don't have a Costa Rica infection.
I think you're suffering from anxiety.
Anxiety? Anxiety wouldn't make me hyperventilate, wouldn't make me collapse.
You go to medical school for that? Huh.
So what do I do? Well I can prescribe you some antianxiety medications, or you could just go out there and talk to her.
Okay.
Good luck.
We just feel horrible.
I mean, we had no idea she was washing dishes.
We just wanted to make sure she was okay.
- We did - In through the nose, Evan.
I'm afraid we chased her away.
You tried to help.
As you both know, it's the journey that matters most Not just yours, Emma's too.
She just looked so defensive.
She knew we knew she'd been pretending to be rich, so she just took off, and we don't know where she went.
We don't know where she went.
We don't know if she's okay.
Your concern for her is admirable, but Emma's not here.
You are.
You came back.
Why? We need to talk about your journey, not Emma's.
- That's it.
- What's it? The ferry.
- She's going home.
- Of course.
- Let's go.
- Right.
No, no, wait.
Call Hank and tell him to look for her at the ferry.
There's one stop I think Emma needs to make before she takes off.
This isn't a rental shop, dear.
You don't just take what you want and then return it when you're done.
That's not what I did.
It's exactly what you did, twice.
Please, give me my money back.
Should we call the police? Mr.
and Mrs.
Lawson, how nice to see you both.
Hi, there.
Everything okay here? Everything's fine.
Just a young lady trying to take advantage.
This is Emma.
She happens to be my sister, actually.
I bought these clothes, and now she won't give me my money back.
Really? I'm afraid that's not quite the whole truth.
- She wore the items.
- No, I didn't.
Meryl, it seems to me your return policy is clearly displayed.
- Yes, Mrs.
Lawson, but - Then give Emma her money back.
Right away, Mrs.
Lawson.
Thank you.
Well, she did not like me.
Hold on a second.
What do you expect? You bought and wore those clothes knowing you were gonna return them.
Well, yeah, I mean, technically, that's allowed.
Yeah, but you lied.
You shouldn't do that, Emma.
You shouldn't lie to people - Not to that woman in there.
- Or to us.
Yeah.
Look, we should talk.
Sure.
Not here, though, back home.
Okay.
I didn't just come here to meet Eddie.
I came here to show him how well I've done without him.
I mean, if he doesn't need me, then I sure as hell don't need him.
But when I saw how you guys live, I mean, I realized that my real story wasn't going to impress him.
Wait a second, I'm sorry.
Your real story? Yeah, what does that mean? My mom never found an oil baron.
I'm the manager of a diner in St.
Louis.
There's no Brampton Academy, and there is no fancy adventure in my future.
Well, I mean Unless you consider the bus ride back home fancy.
Why did you make it all up? Well, I realized that my real story wasn't gonna impress anyone in the Hamptons or any of you, and that's when I bought the nice clothes, and I had to get the job for cash.
- But you were driving a BMW.
- That's right.
No one is ever nice to the valet.
I slipped him some money to borrow the car.
The last thing I wanted to do was to show up here like I was asking for something.
I'm sorry I lied to you guys.
Well, for what it's worth, Emma, I'm more impressed by your real story than the one you made up.
Emma, you don't ever have to pretend with us.
You are family, and we want you to stay now more than ever.
Yeah.
We want to get to know you, the real you.
I mean, I You have an amazing family.
I don't want to mess that up.
Okay, what's the matter? I heard the tone in the voice mail.
I tried to call.
I know when my children need me.
Do you know when I need you? I'm so sorry.
We haven't been introduced.
Eddie R.
Lawson.
I'm Hank and Evan's dad.
Why do you look so familiar? I'm Emma Your daughter.
Dad Do you remember Meredith? So you're Meredith's child.
So why don't we just cut to the chase? What does Meredith want, and why are you here?
