Matt Landry's dead. He made plenty of mistakes. He did some terrible things, there's no denying it. But without Matt Landry, there'd be no Frank Hogan. His anger taught me kindness. His greed taught me generosity. His indifference taught me compassion.
S1 E15Unfinished Business
I wish I could write. You're so talented.
You have to say that because you're my friend.
Because you're my talented friend.
I once played a nurse on the stage.
What a coincidence! I once treated an actress for pinkeye.
What's the bell for?
Oh! That was my idea. It's for emergencies in case Lee needs me and I'm not right here.
Are you sure you can hear it all the way down the hall? It's so small, it may not be loud enough.
Well, I don't know. He hasn't used it yet.
Why don't we test it out, just to be on the safe side?
That is a good idea. Now Lee, when I leave the room, ring the bell.
Whatever you say.
[calling from the hallway] Whenever you're ready!
Just a minute! [closes and locks the door]
Been a long time since I been in church.
Do you know why you're so special to me? Because God put you in my life for a reason....I need you just as much as you need me. And that's why we found each other.
Like the ugly duckling found his real family?
Just like that.
Who has done an act of kindness they'd like to share with the class?
I washed dishes for my mom.
Very good, Opal.
I rescued a skunk! Wanna see?!
Sure you used enough soap there, Cody?
He was pretty dirty. Has he been chasing squirrels?
Only thing Rip chases these days is his food bowl.
Sometimes I think you have the patience of a saint.
Children are like puzzles. Sometimes you have to work really hard to put the pieces together. But it's always worth it...
I believe that you are gonna make a terrific mom one day.
Because I like puzzles?
Yeah. But most importantly, because you make great shepherd's pie.
[laughing] OK.
So...
So...?
Isn't this where you're supposed to tell me I'm gonna make a great dad one day?
I don't know if that's true.
You don't?
I've never tried your shepherd's pie.
I don't know how you did it, but you worked a miracle with that little girl.
She did the hard work herself.
[narration] Sometimes our smallest actions lead to our biggest victories.
Well, if that's how you truly feel then, uh, you can't turn it down.
So you think I should go?
I think...I think you should do whatever makes you happy.
I would come back between pictures, it wouldn't be forev--
You can't. You can't promise that.
You're not making this any easier.
Maybe the best I can manage right now is just to not make it any harder.
Can't believe I'm gonna say this, but I think I owe Henry Gowen an apology.
When I grow up, I'm going to be a bear doctor.
You mean a veterinarian?
No. A bear doctor!
I've always believed that people should follow their dreams. But I don't know what my dreams are anymore.
Well, dreams can change.
...
You found a life here. And you never once felt incomplete. Not until someone else said you were missing something--something that you haven't needed for a very long time.
