[enters the apartment] Hey.
Nah. It's my first apartment, I should probably do it by myself. [turns to paint the wall]
Rebecca, look, about last night, I just wanted to say I'm sorry. I mean, God, you've lost so much in this past month, I mean, your mom and David. And... I should have been more sensitive to what you were feeling.
... I'm just scared. [turns around] If I lose you and your family, what do I have left?
Look, you're not the only one who's scared, though. Rebecca, you're my best friend in this world. Do you think I want to risk losing that?
The thing is, I think we have to. Risk it, I mean. And we should stop wasting time worrying about how it might end. Because, maybe, it... you know, maybe it won't end. Can we start over? Without all the pressure?
[smiles] There's a roller right behind you. We could start with that.
[smiles & laughs] Okay. [gets the roller] So, is this a bad time to tell you that this is the worst color on the planet?
Justin! [rushes into his arms]
Morning.What are you doing here?
I couldn't hide in my room forever. Besides I miss my mother.
Do you wanna talk about last night? I have something to tell you.
What? That living with my mom is okay?
Well that too, but it's that Rebecca loves you. Anyone can see that. And you have to reach out and open up to her so that it'll work.
It's just... I'm afraid that...
That she'll walk. It's like there's this whole other side of me, that, that, Rebecca doesn't know about and if she sees it she'll see, that I'm not good enough for her.
Justin, you can't pick and choose the sides of yourself you want Rebecca to see. Shutting her out won't help.
Look at him. I forgot how little newborns are.
What's it gonna be? Connor or Ben?
I had an idea. I mean, Trish gave us this gift and I thought maybe it would be nice if we honored her.
I think naming him Trish would be child abuse.
It means peaceful warrior.
Yeah, of course, of course. What brings you guys by today?
RRyan
Oh, you didn't get the memo? It's bring your illegitimate child to work day.
Oh, yeah, I went to that last year.
I was looking for you all over the place. Your mom said you left.
Well,you seemed pretty cght up talking with ryan.
you're not actually gonna make this about Ryan. Justin,you hung me
Because we said we weren't gonna get involved.
Oh,like this morning when you asked me to get involved,I suppose that was different?
Justin,you said that you would be there for me tonight if I went
What did you want me to do?
I wanted you to defend me. Or at least not tell me to shut up and just
You know,I'm sorry.I didn't know it was gonna go down like that,
I didn't know that your loyalty was contingent on the
Tommy might go to jail,okay? I'm sorry if my family's a little harsh
A little harsh? Talk about taking sides.
Don't! Don't act like you're above it. You took your mom's side the
Someone has to! You don't get it.
No,you don't. And no matter what,it's always gonna be the same. You
It's not gonna work. It never was.
Alright everyone, Ryan's here just be nice. Be yourselves.
Be nice or be ourselves, which is it?
I'm Kevin this is Scotty.
Hey, I'm Tommy. [They all start introducing themselves]
I told them to be themselves. Who the hell are they?
I had a weird dream last night.
Yeah that your mother and my sister were singing show tunes in tomato-red dresses.
That's so bizarre,'cause I actually had the exact same one only in my dream, we found out we were orphans.
That's a good dream. All right, tell me more.
Well, then we decided to sail off to thailand, and there were pirates.
Okay, mine. I'm a doctor and, you ... you are an amazing photographer. And on sundays we go for walks on the beach or we can go hiking with our dog buster.
Does it have to be buster ?
That's the dream I want. I want to be a doctor and I want to be a husband and I want to be a father and it's all because of you, Rebecca.
God, you make everything feel possible. You make me possible.
Justin...You make me feel the same way.
Yes. I will marry you. Oh my... yes.
Hey. You look exhausted. Are you all right?
I have so much work to do, it's insane.
Well, why don't you take a break?
Yeah, I wish. Maybe... maybe you can help me. you want to quiz me on
There's, uh, there's 27 of 'em.
Yeah. All right. Give me your hand.
Mm-hmm. Carpus. Metacarpus. Uh, digitus secundus manus. Mm-hmm.Digitus medius. And digitus... oh, God. Um... Oh, I always forget this one. Digitus...:[give her the ring] sparkly ringamus.
Oh, my God. Oh, Justin. It's beautiful.
Well, I figured it was time for an upgrade from the bent nail I made you in Mexico, so...
Oh, it's perfect. Can we afford this?
Oh, yeah. My, uh, my mom gave it to us. This was my great-grandmother's ring.
All right, now how about I take you and this rock out to dinner?
Oh, studying? Come on. That's my decoy move. I'm finished.
I love you. Mm. Now...if you want your anatomy lesson...
Have a drink before I have to introduce you to grandma.
OK but please don't say anything to your family about us doing the whole surrogacy thing.
Absolutely. Look I'm afraid once we tell my mom she's gonna want to choose the surrogate for us.
Yeah, well I'm afraid once your mom finds out she's gonna wanna be the surrogate for us.
I wasn't sure you'd be here
Rebecca Yeah, me neither.
Well, we're both here. That's a good sign right.
I guess. Justin, I know that you're under a lot of pressure. And I certainly don't wanna add to it. So do what you need to do. If you need to call off the wedding or move out, then you should.
No Becca, I, I don't wanna call off the wedding or anything. Just listen. There are gonna be times where I'm gonna wake up in the middle of the night with doubts about myself and I just need to know that you're next to me and that you believe in me.
I do believe in you. I always knew that you could do this.
Yeah. Listen, how bout, tomorow we'll drive down to Zuma Beach and we'll have a picnic.
You don't have to take me to the beach.
I want to. And if I have to study, I might as well be in a beautiful place, with a beautiful girl. I love you.
(Kitty is on the phone)
Hi. Yes, I was wondering if I could make an appointment with Dr. Avadon. Oh, no, no. She told me that she would be able to squeeze me in. Oh, sorry. Kitty. Kitty McCallister. And I was wondering also if maybe you could tell me if my test results came in.She told me that they would be in today.
(Robert comes back from his jog)
No. You're right. Of course. I'm sorry. I'll call back later. Thank you. (hangs up)
I'm sorry. What'd you say?
Kevin called me when I was out on my run. Kern knows about the heart attack.
Somebody's got my medical records. Three months ago we were telling every news organisation it was minor arrhythmia.
Well, I don't know. What are you gonna do, Robert? Sometimes medical situations are difficult to talk about.
Come on, Kitty, you're a pundit. You know what kind of narrative they're gonna write with this. "Senator McCallister misled us with a heart attack. He's untrustworthy. Not to mention the fact that he could drop dead at any moment."
No, no, no, don't you worry, darling. (kisses Baby Evan) Nobody's gonna be dropping dead around here any time soon.
No, not yet, but this is the kind of thing that could derail this campaign before it even starts, which is probably okay with you.
Oh, you know what, Robert. Please don't start that.
