Royal Pains s07e03 Episode Script

Playing Doctor

Oh, hi.
I'm Evan R.
Lawson, your Interim Hospital Administrator, here to let you know about my new weekly video blog, Administration Corner.
Check it out on the internal employee website, which if you're watching this you probably already have 'cause it's the only place it's posted.
Anyway, um I want you to know that my door is always open.
My mind is always open.
Basically I just want things to be really open around here.
I believe in complete transparency, and I hope you do too.
So if you see me in the halls, don't be afraid to come up to me, look me right in the eye, and engage with me.
Just to sum up: Evan R.
Lawson.
Complete.
Transparency.
Thanks a lot for watching.
I'll see you next week.
Do I seem accessible? - Very.
- Great.
I just want everyone to know that while I'm only here temporarily, I'm fully committed.
Nailed it.
And I think it'll help if the hospital staff knows they can talk to me about anything.
So that's why I'm going for - Complete transparency.
- Yeah.
Yes, that is completely transparent.
Great.
Post it.
Yeah, posting it.
Oh, wait.
It's my lab results.
Oh.
Yeah.
Yeah, it confirms everything the endocrinologist expected.
My, uh, motility and sperm count are low.
Honey, remember, low isn't no.
That's true.
Now I just have to motivate them, right? On the bright side, these loose-fitting pants they suggested are insanely comfortable.
They're like dressy pajama jeans.
And there's our favorite doctor's order.
- Mm.
- Mm-mm.
Complete transparency isn't always good.
You're right.
Wow.
Uh-uh.
Why not? Because I can hear people outside.
And I'm gonna be nervous about somebody knocking.
Call me "50 Shades of Normal," but I prefer it at home.
That could take a while.
Maybe not.
I'm getting an estimate this morning.
You're meeting another contractor? Yeah, and hopefully this one doesn't suggest rebuilding the entire house.
Hey.
Find a time to come by the guest house for lunch.
It's homey enough.
And now they think they have a claim that I'm an unfit mother.
Well, that's absurd.
Oh, I know.
And the thing is Rafa knows it too.
He knows me.
We used to be in love.
Why would he do this? I just don't understand.
Well, call Rafa and find out.
Well, that's the problem.
I can't.
My lawyer absolutely insists that I stay out of it.
So people who don't know me or Rafa are doing all of the talking, and I can do nothing.
I'm powerless, and I hate it.
That sounds so frustrating.
It is.
I just I can't stand being silenced.
Hey, is there anything I can do? No.
No, thank you.
Just be prepared.
I might be a bit bossy today with my patients.
Well, that wouldn't be Fine.
A bit bossier than usual.
This should be a fun day.
Saw your blog this morning, Mr.
Lawson.
- Oh.
- Very interesting.
Thanks, Dr.
Hauptschein.
Yeah, that that's my goal actually, to post a lot of interesting things and be transparent.
That'll keep 'em coming back.
Hey, get out of here! Now! No, I need a doctor! Help! Security, get him out of here.
My, uh my appendix, it burst! Your appendix is fine.
If I see you again, I'll burst it for you.
Whoa, whoa, what's going on here? Margaret, the doors of Hamptons Heritage are open to everyone.
Not perfectly healthy paparazzi.
Tim here was trying to fake his way into the ER to get pictures of a celebrity patient.
Is that true? Well - Get him out of here.
- Let's go.
- Let me just - Don't come back, okay? Guys like Tim disgust me.
That's 'cause they're disgusting.
Everyone's entitled to privacy, especially in a hospital.
Well, you got that right.
Now where's this celebrity at? Hello.
Who is that? Are you the only person on the planet who has not seen Michelangelo? Of course I've seen Michelangelo.
Whoa, whoa, whoa.
That's Cole Chapman-Smith? Yeah.
Oh, my God.
Are you kidding? Oh, my God! I didn't even recognize him.
He is a chameleon.
Mr.
Chapman-Smith, it is it is such an honor to have you in my ER.
I just Sorry, I'm Evan R.
Lawson, I'm the Hospital Administrator.
I just wanted to say welcome.
Well, hey, man.
Hey, Evan.
What's up? Oh, not much.
I just Are you okay? In any pain or anything? I'm good man, yeah.
I'm totally numb.
Oh, that's great.
Yeah.
Sorry.
You're just right there.
My wife and I loved you as Michelangelo.
Is it true that after you got the part you built a church in your backyard and then spent the next six months painting the ceiling, like on your back? That would be totally crazy.
Oh, oh No, I painted exactly as Michelangelo did, upright on a scaffold from the 16th century.
That's awesome.
Well, you were You were great.
I mean, deserving of every award that followed, too.
- Thank you.
- Hey, excuse me.
You've got some deep lacerations here.
I didn't see any trauma to the bone.
I'll need, like, 20 stitches.
Exactly 20.
As soon as I saw that visible dark red muscle, I knew Tim's camera had done some damage.
Wait, Tim hit you with his camera? Why would he do that? He's a local nuisance, Evan.
He's been stalking me for days.
This morning, I catch him hiding in my bushes, trying to take a photo of me in my costume fitting.
So I try and grab his camera.
He starts swinging it around.
Next thing I know, I'm bleeding all over my driveway, and my shoulder's sliced open.
Oh, and the wanker just Tweeted my location.
Cool.
I'm out.
You most certainly are not out.
You risk infection, scarring, no.
Yeah, I appreciate the concern, darling, but this costume's kinda top secret.
I like to be in control of when things leak.
Fine.
Put this on.
Yeah, they're not taking my picture in this either.
Well, you absolutely cannot leave.
I absolutely will not stay.
And I absolutely have the solution.
So was this clinda in this? It it is, yeah.
Could you just try to keep still.
I'm trying to sew your arm.
Yeah, of course, of course.
And before that you used lidocaine.
I did, I did.
Arm needs to really stay still.
- Stay still, yeah, yeah.
- Okay.
If you didn't have any lidocaine, what would you use? Uh, I could use liquid Benadryl.
Liquid Benadryl, okay.
That would work? Well enough, yeah.
I sometimes have to improvise.
Oh, interesting.
So this, is this Vicryl or Prolene? Uh, Prolene.
Did you study medicine before you became an actor? No, no, no, but I'm, uh Well, I'm studying it now.
I'm about to play a doctor.
Yeah, the truth of my characters means everything to me, Hank.
Vox veritas vita.
"Speak the truth as a way of life.
" Hmm, hmm.
So if you didn't have Prolene, what could you use? Well, I could use tailor's thread.
- Brilliant.
- Mm-hmm.
Anything else? Uh, dental floss.
Very cool.
Anything else? Catgut.
From a dead cat? Actually, "catgut" is short for "cattle gut.
" A dead cow? Allison, we could use a dead cow! Hank, this is amazing.
Anything else? Can't we just assume you have dental floss? Not when a cow is the coolest.
- Uh.
- But how would I do that? How would I use a cow? Well, you have to strip the intestinal lining, and then you have to dry it before stitching anything.
It would take a long time.
Well, not on film, because that's what editors are for.
Right.
I like this, Hank.
I do.
I want to shadow you.
You could help me keep the medicine real.
Uh, thank you, but I'm not sure that's the best idea.
Come on, doesn't it bug you when they get medicine wrong in movies? Uh, not really, no.
You must notice mistakes all the time.
Well, it does kinda bug me when a patient in asystole is shocked.
And don't get me started on transthoracic intracardiac injections.
- Mm, I know.
- I mean, if you ever see a person jamming an epi shot into someone's chest, stop them.
It could be fatal.
Oh, but what really drives me crazy, people in TV comas.
They're supposed to be intubated, and they never are.
Why? I don't know.
I haven't studied comas.
But you could teach me.
Ah.
Mr.
Abua? That is me.
I'm Divya Katdare.
I'm here for your appointment.
I was expecting Jeremiah Sacani.
He was called out of town.
He asked me to meet with you.
So, you are also a doctor? No, but as a physician assistant, I am more than capable.
I understand that it has been requested that you have a pre-marital genetic test? And what could you know of Kallmann syndrome? I know that it is a rare and serious genetic disease, which causes renal agenesis and hyposmia, amongst other symptoms, and can be fatal.
Okay.
This disease has plagued my family for generations.
My fiancée is a distant cousin, and unfortunately she is a carrier.
You must be very anxious to get your own results.
Shall we go inside so I can do the blood draw? No need.
Here it is.
Is that your blood? It is the blood I would like you to test.
I need to do the draw myself.
Then I will decline.
And that is your right.
But as the results are supposed to be reported, I'll need to tell Mr.
King that you refused the test.
That is not his name.
That is his title.
He's the king, and I am his son.
Fine, then I can address you as Prince.
Crown Prince.
And you should know that both my marital future and my family's future depend on the result of this blood test.
As Crown Prince, I respectfully appreciate your predicament.
But here's mine.
I can report your refusal or I can draw your blood.
So, what would you like to do? The chimney cracks need to be patched.
Some of the missing roof tiles should be replaced, but that's it.
Okay.
How long would it take to do both? Let me think.
Gus, are you Still thinking.
Probably gonna take a few days.
A few days? We can live with that.
Hey, Mr.
Lawson, loved your blog.
- Oh, wow.
- So original.
- Really? - Very inspirational.
Oh, thank you.
Thanks a lot.
What are all the accolades about? Uh, nothing.
Just my blog.
It's gonna change everything.
The only thing that ever changes around here are the fancy pants administrators.
Ah.
Maybe not those pants.
What? Hank would you please tell Margaret how great my blog is? Oh, my God, it's so great.
Thank you.
Sounds so awesome.
You haven't even seen it, have you? Not yet.
But I saw Cole Chapman-Smith.
He's fine.
All stitched up.
I heard.
I also heard he asked to observe you on some house calls.
Yeah, he'll go with me tomorrow.
What? That's that's awesome.
And your patients are cool with it? - What'd you tell 'em? - The truth.
I said a non-medical person wants to do research for an upcoming project.
An upcoming project.
Listen to you with your Hollywood lingo.
"Upcoming project" is not lingo.
- It's English.
- Oh.
Anyway, I asked if this observer could join me at their appointments, and no one objected.
They all said yes.
I'm just surprised you said yes.
Just trying to be open to new experiences.
And what about old experiences, you open to those too? Ev It'll be 25 years.
You know it's not my thing.
Couldn't help it.
Had to ask, right? Yeah, I know you did.
I'll see you later, okay? Good morning.
Hello.
Can I help you? Hank, it's me.
Oh, Cole! Wow, that's quite a disguise.
I didn't recognize you.
That's kinda the point.
My presence can be a distraction.
This way I can focus, not have the focus on me.
How do I look? Uh, you look You look great.
Yeah, am I wearing these correctly? Uh, actually the earpieces need to point forward.
Forward, yes.
Yeah, but otherwise, yeah, you look like a doctor.
Do me a favor and help me check my props.
Oh, feel free to just yeah, let's take a look.
Uh, you got a B.
P.
cuff.
You've got some syringes, some scalpels.
You got some bandages.
What's with the Rambo knives and the talc? Bowie knife, sulfur powder, double-laced lancet.
This is my favorite.
Check this out.
Bone amputation saw.
Oww! Um, I'm confused.
Are you playing a doctor or an old-timey serial killer? My next role actually takes place in a post-apocalyptic wasteland.
I'm the last doctor on what remains of Earth.
If I can't save you, no one can.
Clear! That sounds like a great movie.
Thanks, man.
Cole, today's house calls are pretty standard.
I don't know if you're gonna learn a lot about post-apocalyptic medicine or Forget about all that stuff, Hank.
It's not the medicine I'm most interested in.
It's you.
- Me? - Yes.
How do you get the patients to trust you? What makes everybody worth saving? Where did that come from? I have no idea.
I'm just me.
But who is the real me? Who's the man behind the medicine? Why did you choose to become a doctor? Um I wanted to help people.
I was good at science.
See, that's what you tell people, Hank.
I want deeper answers.
I want the truth.
I'm telling you the truth.
Shh.
The real truth.
Today, Hank Lawson, I'm gonna find out what makes you tick.
Hmm.
Come on, and I assume you're professionals, right? All right, let's start with the movers.
Hold.
Short that one.
Stop! Not you.
Deep breaths.
That's it, deep breath.
In.
And out.
We're gonna need some large towels to clean that up.
It's a hazard.
Thank you.
You can't keep doing this, Marcus.
You can't keep putting stuff in your nose, mouth, or any other holes.
It's just a battery.
Hey, batteries are dangerous, all right, pal? Take your pants off and get up here! I'm not wearing any pants! Oh, my God.
I am so sorry.
I thought you were Evan.
That's a first.
And hopefully a last.
Yeah.
I take it that Hank is not here.
Uh, no, not for hours.
Anything I could help you with? I was looking for advice.
I need to deliver some unfortunate news to a patient.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I hate it when bad things happen to good people.
Actually, he's not a very good person.
Oh, well, that's sort of a silver lining.
Though I sort of understand why he is the way he is.
Due to a genetic anomaly, he can't marry the woman that he loves.
Oh, that's so sad.
I want to cry.
All right, babe, I hope you're ready! 'Cause it's baby-making time.
And now I want to cry too.
Divya, hello.
And good-bye.
Bye-bye.
Oh, my God.
Wow.
I am so freaking lucky.
Mm.
You are so freaking cold.
Oh, yeah.
Keeping my swimmers cool.
Supposed to motivate them.
No, not here.
- What do you mean? - Upstairs.
I've got music and lit candles.
I don't need any of that.
I just need you.
Right now.
- Ow! - What? Yeah, it's a phone.
All right, now it's baby-making time.
Listen, man, I get it.
I get where you get your God complex.
I do not have a God complex.
You're a hero.
You're a healer.
You're a messiah.
None of these either.
Let me just find my phone.
I mean, it's obvious that you're a perfectionist.
So not a perfectionist.
- Is that Cole Chapman-Smith? - Yeah.
But it's obvious to me that you help your patients both spiritually and physically, as well as emotionally.
You're in tune.
You're responsive, - You listen.
- Yeah, totally.
Do you see my phone over there? No, no.
You know, you're in touch.
But here's the thing.
But see, I need to understand your need.
Where is its source? Are its headwaters Do something.
Born out of passion? Or compassion? Or longing? You know, or or or love? Ow, hey! Stop it! Or desire? Or fear? Wait a minute.
You have a cell phone.
Can I borrow it, please? What makes you tick? I guess I am motivated by the desire to Yes, there you are! Got it! It must have fallen somewhere.
Huh.
Come on, let's go.
Aren't you gonna answer it? No, it's just Evan.
Probably bugging me to watch his video blog.
There is nothing wrong with seeking approval from those we love.
That's it.
He's who makes you tick.
Yeah, right.
Let it go.
Let it go.
Stay calm.
Man, that was close.
Right? It was kinda hot.
I can't believe he hasn't seen my blog yet.
Shut up.
You are certain I tested positive? I am positive.
I mean, you are positive.
Yes.
I am certain.
But even though you and your fiancée are both carriers for Kallmann syndrome, there is no guarantee that your children will develop the disease.
Though the chance is greater? That's true.
And that is enough for my father.
I cannot marry her.
I am so sorry.
On the contrary, Ms.
Katdare, I must thank you.
You have saved my life.
Hey.
Hey.
Where's Cole? Uh, he had a notes call with his writers.
I had some time to kill, so I thought I'd stop in.
But you look busy, so I'll just No, no, no, no.
Never too busy for my brother.
Okay.
Or something that's really important to my brother.
Look, Ev I don't know why I never go.
I'm sorry I'm weird about it.
That's not what I'm talking about.
After 25 years, I'm resigned to going alone.
It's okay.
Oh, so what My blog, Henry.
I was talking about my blog.
Oh, right.
And as it turns out, I did take a look.
You you watched it! I did, I did.
And you know what? Really great work.
Really great work.
Thanks.
Thanks, man.
What's your favorite part? Oh, my God, favorite part? I liked it all.
I mean, I didn't memorize it, but the whole I mean, every little, you know, little nuance.
Can you stop looking at me like that? Like what? Okay, I didn't watch it.
I didn't it's a blog for your employees.
Why do you need my approval? I don't need your approval, Henry.
You're my brother.
I want you to care.
That's all.
Oh, God.
Fine, I will watch it now.
Well, I don't want to show it to you now.
Are you kidding me? No, I'm not kidding you.
I want you to be excited, Henry! Okay, you know what? Between you and Cole, I've had enough of the crazy today.
I'm gonna go.
Buh-bye.
I lied! I'm sorry! Please, don't go.
Stay.
Have a seat.
Okay.
Enjoy.
I'm Evan R.
Lawson, your Interim Hospital Administrator, here to let you know about my new weekly video blog, Administration Corner.
Check it out It's good, right? It's I'm proud of my effort, you know? I put a lot of effort into it, and people are responding around here.
Yeah, you know, it's kind of hard to listen when you're talking.
I'm sorry.
Right, I'm sorry.
Yeah, thank you.
Thanks.
My mind is always open.
Basically I just want things to be really open around here.
I believe in complete transparency.
Why would you post your lab results? What? Yeah, it's It's a semen analysis.
No, no, it Just to sum up No.
Evan R.
Lawson.
Complete.
Transparency.
Oh, my God.
I must have accidentally attached both files.
Wait, you have low motility? This is a clinical issue.
Why wouldn't you tell me about this? Because I was too embarrassed to share it with you.
But not with the whole hospital.
Oh, my God.
The whole hospital saw it.
How do I'm sure that fixed it.
So, neither you nor your fiancée ever wanted to get married? Not to one another, no.
It was arranged by our families.
I didn't expect this bad news to be good news.
Yes.
I've been given a reprieve.
Saved by my own DNA.
For your sake, I'm glad.
And I do hope that you have a bride of your choice waiting in the wings.
There is no point.
My father will select the next suitable candidate the moment he gets these results.
You cannot believe something like this can happen in the 21st century, but you do not understand the traditions of my people.
Actually, I think our families are not that different.
I managed to escape an arranged marriage myself.
Then your father cannot be as commanding as mine.
Oh, no? He's no king.
He's more like a dictator.
How did you stop him? It wasn't easy.
I had a lot of false starts.
But finally I just had to stand up for myself.
It was terrifying, but also empowering.
What the Gus? Oh, hey, Paige! You're worried.
- Uh - Don't be.
Yes, there are a few problem areas, but it's not as bad as it looks.
So are we talking days or weeks now? Technically, it could be both.
So, we shouldn't unpack? Yeah, I'd, uh hold off on that.
Hank.
Come on in.
Oh, thanks.
Seriously? You can't do that.
I know.
That's why I'm practicing.
- Ah.
- I'm running late for a town board meeting, so I insisted we get started.
I still don't know your observer's name, but he's very charming.
Oh, yes, he is.
How's my blood pressure, dear? Yes, how is it, Doctor? What's the systolic number? Hmm.
You know what, you might want a second opinion.
So let me just step on in there.
- Take over.
- Thanks so much, Doctor.
It's good to see you again, Pam.
I was so happy to hear that you were re-elected.
I know that all my patients voted for you.
Well, thank you for your support.
You always have it.
Okay Hmm.
That's higher than last year, Pam.
Oh, crap.
Now you're gonna ask me about the diet plan we worked out.
Have you lost any weight? I've gained a few pounds.
This is not good for your diabetes, Pam.
It's not all my fault.
My constituents are constantly feeding me.
Community events and service breakfasts.
I get it.
Last year I gained 55 pounds.
I told myself I had to for the job.
I'm sorry, why would a doctor need to gain weight? It's complicated, and she's pressed for time right now.
Okay.
But let me just say that it felt great to get back in shape.
Thank you.
Look, I don't know much about being a mayor.
Came close once, but they decided to go ethnic.
But I do know how it feels to be number one and have to fulfill people's expectations, to set the tone.
You know, when people look up to you, it can be a bitch.
I get it, you know? You want to be one of the guys.
A regular Joe.
But that's not what you signed up for.
It's not what I signed up for either.
We're leaders.
It's on us to set the example.
It's on us to be the best we can be.
It's on us to make sure that every damn man gets home alive.
Damn straight.
I can do this.
So, what movie was that from? Brothers At Arms.
That scene would have got me an Oscar if it hadn't been cut.
Or at least a SAG Award.
Well, whatever.
You fooled Pam.
Damn it, he's found me again.
Is that the paparazzo who tore up your arm? Hang on.
I can lose him.
Whoo! Ha! Are you kidding me? This car is awesome! I know, right? Turbo V8 engine.
No one can catch me in this thing.
Oh, and did I mention, launch control? Whoo! Ha, bye, Tim! Oh, yeah! - You're definitely safe.
- Nice.
Whoo! Nailed it.
Nicely done.
You know, for the record, I wasn't fooling the mayor.
I was actually drawing on an experience from my own childhood to inspire her.
Ah.
Mrs.
Holiday.
She ran our school drama club.
Raconteur, bon vivant, cat enthusiast.
She cast me in my first play as the Artful Dodger.
I was terrified, but she told me I would be fine, I should do it, and that my parents would be proud.
And after that I was hooked.
Well, parents can be real motivators.
My parents didn't show up to the performance.
They were, uh, too busy.
Ah-ha.
I'm sorry.
Ah, don't be.
I mean, yeah, my parents were self-absorbed, but, you know, it wasn't a big deal.
It wasn't life-changing.
It wasn't as if one of them died or something.
You talked to Evan.
He did mention that you became a doctor to save other people's lives because you couldn't save your mother's.
Actually, it's not quite that simple.
I mean, my mom was amazing.
She died way too young.
But She had high expectations.
She pushed me hard.
When she got sick and our dad took off, and she knew Evan and I would be on our own, she pushed me even harder.
She'd been really disappointed by one man in her life, and she wasn't about to let me follow in his footsteps.
That sounds like a lot of pressure.
Yeah, it was.
And when I was in medical school and in my residency, and even now, I am still chasing her approval.
Just, uh I don't want to let her down.
You know, that, uh that paparazzo should've passed us by now.
- Tim? - Yeah.
Well, maybe he found a shortcut.
There isn't one.
Come on, let's go.
Hey.
Ugh, I'm stuck.
- Please help me.
- Okay, okay.
Tim, I'm a doctor.
- Does your neck hurt? - No.
Okay.
Good pulse.
Your fingers, can you move them at all? Yeah, a little bit.
My arm really hurts.
Shouldn't we just wait for the ambulance? We don't have time.
His arm, it's turning blue.
Uh, Cole, get your saw.
Field amputation.
Just get it.
Okay.
Please, I can't lose my arm.
As soon as we get it out, the blood will start flowing.
You should be okay.
Okay.
Here, good.
Okay.
Here we go.
Okay.
Easy, easy, easy.
Okay, okay.
What's wrong? His fingers, they're still blue.
Pallor.
All right, can you feel any of this? No, it's numb.
Okay, paresthesia.
Ow, ow, ow, ow! And pain.
Compartment syndrome.
All right, I need you to switch places with me, Cole.
Ow.
Okay.
So much fluid has built up inside his arm, it's preventing the flow of blood.
If we don't release that pressure right now, your arm will die.
Listen to me, I need you to hold his arm very still.
If it moves an inch to either side, we could slice open an artery or cut right through a nerve.
W we? Yeah, we.
I'm gonna need your help.
So take a deep breath, take a deep breath, and act like a doctor.
That I can do.
Okay, good.
Okay.
This is gonna hurt.
I'm ready.
- I was talking to Tim.
- Okay.
Okay, that's it.
Just hang in there, Tim.
Hang in there.
That's it.
You'll feel better in a little bit.
Okay, okay.
That's it.
Good.
It worked.
Tim, you're gonna be okay.
Thank you.
You got it.
I just need to get some more gauze.
Okay.
Hi.
This way.
Sorry to interrupt.
You can leave us.
I can't accept this.
But it is my thanks for your advice.
I called my father and stood up for myself.
Finally.
I'm glad to hear that.
And while I will accept your thanks, I must return this extravagant gift.
I insist you keep it.
It comes from a very special place.
Oh, are these stones from your country? No.
Van Cleef & Arpels.
But they convey a meaning that comes from my heart.
Aquamarine is the symbol of courage.
And diamonds represent personal strength.
Together, they make me think of you, a woman who takes control of her destiny and always speaks her mind.
Not always.
Got your favorite cookies.
You got my message? Babe, I know you're embarrassed.
But think about what everyone's been saying, that you're brave, honest, inspiring.
So, yeah, maybe this wasn't the kind of transparency you were going for, but maybe that's okay.
I just can't believe I did something so stupid.
Hey, it's been a hard week for you.
You have the anniversary.
You've started a new job.
It's easy to see why you got distracted.
Yeah.
Oh, my God, I begged Hank to see it.
I, like, begged him.
It was so humiliating.
I sat him down, I was like, "Here, here's my computer.
Enjoy.
" And he was like, "Why am I looking at a sperm document?" - Oh, babe.
- Like, I And then I was like, "Oh, my God," and started hitting keys, sorta like smashing it, like that was gonna fix this.
And then I completely went crazy.
- I'm sorry, it's not funny.
- It was funny.
And then I grabbed it, like I turned into Arnold Schwarzenegger, I was like, "Why? Come on! "You stupid computer, no! Yah!" Aah, okay.
You need to stop.
Okay, are you done? Yeah.
You're right.
You're completely right.
Even if this wasn't the kind of transparency I was going for, people are liking it.
So why would I let it get me down? I've got everything going for me.
I've got a great wife, a great job, a snake-free home.
About that.
Oh, God.
Turns out the work is gonna take longer than we thought.
So, we're gonna be at the guest house a while longer.
I'm sorry, that sucks.
I know it's not your idea of the perfect family home.
That's okay.
Things will never be perfect.
And our family home is wherever we are as we start this family, which means for now we're gonna have to improvise.
- Really? - Yeah.
I'm just not ready for complete transparency.
I like what you did there.
I'm worried about how many CCs we're administrating Uh, Cole? Start without me.
What are you doing? A differential.
You're not a doctor.
Okay.
Yeah.
How's Tim? A good deal of fascia necrotized distally from the antecubital fossa, so they'll asses for a split-thickness skin graft in the morning.
Hank, I'm not a doctor.
Oh, right.
He'll be fine.
Tim can go home in a few days.
Good, good, 'cause as much as that guy pissed me off, without him, I wouldn't have met you.
Listen, Hank, thank you so much for everything.
Oh, you're welcome.
It's been great getting to know you, Cole.
It's been a blast.
Yeah.
Hank.
Come here.
Okay.
Look, I bet your mom would have been very proud of you today.
I would have given you an A-plus.
I, uh I appreciate that.
It's been hard to admit that my mom wasn't perfect.
Maybe that's why it's hard talking about her with Evan.
See, to him, she was perfect, and I want to protect that memory for him.
But I've been protecting it for myself too, and maybe I don't need to anymore.
I know you're big on the truth, so thank you.
Thank you for helping me get to mine.
Oh, my God.
That's Cole Chapman-Smith! Oh, I've been spotted.
Excuse me.
Oh.
- He's so cute.
- He is You know how much I love our daughter.
Everyone who knows me knows how much I love Sashi, so these claims that I am an unfit mother, they they make no sense.
You're using a video to try and take Sashi away, not just from me but but from her home, from everybody that loves her, from everything that she's ever known.
I won't let that happen.
She belongs with me.
So don't make me take her far away so that you cannot find her, because I will.
And you will never see her again.
Is that clear? Never! Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt.
No, no, um It's all right.
It's, uh, it's Rafa.
You hung up on him, huh? No, he wasn't there.
It was just a message.
You left that on his voice-mail? Did I sound crazy? No, no, not at all.
Except for maybe the part where you threatened to kidnap his child.
And I have this amazing new job.
Well, it's temporary.
But Boris asked me to do it, so I know, it's crazy, right? It hasn't been easy.
But, uh I think my staff is starting to respect me.
So that's pretty cool.
What else? Paige sends her love.
And, uh, oh, my God, Mom, guess what? We're gonna start a family.
Your baby's gonna have a baby.
I'm so excited.
Uh we both are.
Just wish you were here to help us.
I have so many questions already.
Anyway, enough about me.
Hey.
Hey.
You came.
Yeah.
Hey, Ma.
I really miss her.
I do too.
She was the perfect mom.
Yeah.
Yeah, she was.
