00:00:33,094 --> 00:00:35,688
(gentle somber music subsides)

5
00:00:35,730 --> 00:00:38,213
- How have you been responding
to the medication, Maria?

6
00:00:45,060 --> 00:00:46,263
- She's been withdrawn.

7
00:00:48,150 --> 00:00:49,500
I think it's getting worse.

8
00:00:52,260 --> 00:00:53,460
- Explain what you mean.

9
00:00:57,240 --> 00:00:58,443
- Before the medication,

10
00:01:00,540 --> 00:01:01,923
she was talking a lot more.

11
00:01:04,170 --> 00:01:07,788
Now, I'm lucky if I even get
a simple answer to a question

12
00:01:07,830 --> 00:01:10,030
of, "Baby, would you
like some more coffee?"

13
00:01:11,550 --> 00:01:13,518
Is this some of the side
effects of the medication?

14
00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:15,618
- For the first couple weeks, yes.

15
00:01:15,660 --> 00:01:18,288
At least until the body gets used to it.

16
00:01:18,330 --> 00:01:22,458
- Dr. Cannon, it's been
more than two weeks.

17
00:01:22,500 --> 00:01:23,973
It's hitting six weeks.

18
00:01:27,720 --> 00:01:28,743
Should I be worried?

19
00:01:30,570 --> 00:01:32,163
- No, I don't think so.

20
00:01:35,220 --> 00:01:36,770
Have you returned back to work?

21
00:01:38,580 --> 00:01:39,413
No.

22
00:01:40,707 --> 00:01:41,540
I haven't.

23
00:01:46,050 --> 00:01:48,800
I don't think it's a good
idea to be leaving her alone.

24
00:01:51,060 --> 00:01:53,465
- I think you should return back to work.

25
00:01:53,507 --> 00:01:55,107
The sooner the better for Maria.

26
00:01:58,110 --> 00:02:01,038
- I've been doing some
research online on some info.

27
00:02:01,080 --> 00:02:04,293
And a forum suggested maybe
getting her a realistic doll.

28
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:07,218
What are your thoughts on that, doctor?

29
00:02:07,260 --> 00:02:09,203
- I don't think that's a good idea, Avery.

30
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:12,168
- Why not?

31
00:02:12,210 --> 00:02:13,623
I've tried everything.

32
00:02:16,470 --> 00:02:17,853
I just want my wife back.

33
00:02:21,210 --> 00:02:22,923
- The state that Maria's in now,

34
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:27,588
bringing that type of
attachment in will only bring fuel

35
00:02:27,630 --> 00:02:28,463
to the fire.

36
00:02:30,930 --> 00:02:33,528
May I suggest you contact a friend of mine

37
00:02:33,570 --> 00:02:35,553
who specializes in home care for Maria?

38
00:02:40,020 --> 00:02:41,565
This will help you get back to work.

39
00:02:41,607 --> 00:02:43,413
And to get her back to normal.

40
00:02:47,490 --> 00:02:49,190
- Was she ever get back to normal?

41
00:02:50,790 --> 00:02:52,383
- Grief has no expiration date.

42
00:02:53,550 --> 00:02:55,863
Surround her with love. That tends to help.

43
00:02:59,370 --> 00:03:00,463
And I'll see you two

44
00:03:04,675 --> 00:03:05,758
in two weeks.

45
00:03:08,188 --> 00:03:11,355
(gentle somber music)

46
00:03:29,818 --> 00:03:33,818
(gentle somber music continues)

47
00:03:51,659 --> 00:03:55,576
(gentle somber music subsides)

48
00:04:33,818 --> 00:04:34,651
- Baby.

49
00:04:36,780 --> 00:04:38,280
You haven't touched your food.

50
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:48,063
You're not hungry?

51
00:05:09,870 --> 00:05:11,070
You ready for your bath?

52
00:05:15,496 --> 00:05:18,663
(gentle somber music)

53
00:05:29,388 --> 00:05:32,055
(water gushing)

54
00:05:45,723 --> 00:05:48,806
(gentle sober music)

55
00:06:32,842 --> 00:06:36,259
(cupboard door slamming)

56
00:06:41,733 --> 00:06:45,150
(cupboard door slamming)

57
00:06:46,523 --> 00:06:49,023
(Avery sighs)

58
00:07:06,690 --> 00:07:07,523
Baby.

59
00:07:09,330 --> 00:07:10,788
Please.

60
00:07:10,830 --> 00:07:11,663
Talk to me.

61
00:07:14,022 --> 00:07:16,439
(Maria sobs)

62
00:07:20,270 --> 00:07:21,437
Say something.

63
00:07:26,662 --> 00:07:27,829
Say something.

64
00:08:07,739 --> 00:08:11,822
(people chattering indistinctly)

65
00:08:15,450 --> 00:08:17,688
- He was referred by a
close colleague of mine,

66
00:08:17,730 --> 00:08:18,693
Donald Cannon.

67
00:08:19,650 --> 00:08:20,483
- Yes.

68
00:08:21,390 --> 00:08:23,958
He said that you could
supply home care services

69
00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:24,843
for my wife.

70
00:08:26,550 --> 00:08:31,550
- So, what is it that you
truly need from us, Mr. Brooks?

71
00:08:31,740 --> 00:08:33,393
- Recently we lost our daughter.

72
00:08:36,030 --> 00:08:37,563
She's grieving tremendously.

73
00:08:40,050 --> 00:08:42,693
She's barely said two
words since the passing.

74
00:08:45,000 --> 00:08:46,323
- I can't imagine.

75
00:08:47,700 --> 00:08:51,453
Losing a child is heartbreaking, I'm sure.

76
00:08:52,560 --> 00:08:55,110
- I haven't been able to
get her back up and going.

77
00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:59,823
- What did she do before
your daughter's passing?

78
00:09:02,730 --> 00:09:04,383
- She was a pastry chef.

79
00:09:05,940 --> 00:09:10,353
She specialized in birthdays,
weddings, et cetera.

80
00:09:12,420 --> 00:09:15,393
- Okay. Has she baked anything since?

81
00:09:16,980 --> 00:09:18,528
- No.

82
00:09:18,570 --> 00:09:19,403
Nothing.

83
00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:25,653
I just want my wife back.

84
00:09:27,683 --> 00:09:30,603
I mean, I know that grief
doesn't have a time limit on it,

85
00:09:32,430 --> 00:09:33,980
but I need to get back to work.

86
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:38,463
I just want us to move past this.

87
00:09:41,400 --> 00:09:42,543
- I understand.

88
00:09:44,370 --> 00:09:46,203
Grief is tricky, Mr. Brooks.

89
00:09:47,940 --> 00:09:50,793
Moving on is hard when it's so fresh.

90
00:09:52,290 --> 00:09:53,193
However,

91
00:09:55,260 --> 00:09:58,188
I do offer home care services,

92
00:09:58,230 --> 00:10:00,828
and I have a nurse that can assist her.

93
00:10:00,870 --> 00:10:03,378
Our services consist of activities,

94
00:10:03,420 --> 00:10:07,818
take her for walks, things
that will bring her back around.

95
00:10:07,860 --> 00:10:09,768
May I ask, is she eating?

96
00:10:09,810 --> 00:10:10,643
- No.

97
00:10:11,557 --> 00:10:12,390
Barely.

98
00:10:14,370 --> 00:10:17,373
She takes a bite of a
bagel, but that's about it.

99
00:10:19,260 --> 00:10:21,213
- Coffee? Water?

100
00:10:22,140 --> 00:10:23,583
- Oh, she loves her coffee.

101
00:10:26,130 --> 00:10:30,063
- I do have a nurse,
her name is Carla Wales,

102
00:10:32,040 --> 00:10:35,178
that will offer
round-the-clock services for her.

103
00:10:35,220 --> 00:10:36,843
Do you have a room available?

104
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:39,663
- Yes, I do actually.

105
00:10:41,490 --> 00:10:43,673
- When would you like
the services to start?

106
00:10:45,210 --> 00:10:46,443
- As soon as possible.

107
00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:48,978
I need to get back to work.

108
00:10:49,020 --> 00:10:51,153
- Okay, we need to discuss her schedule.

109
00:10:52,620 --> 00:10:55,338
Although it mentions
round-the-clock services,

110
00:10:55,380 --> 00:10:58,158
my nurses are off on the weekends.

111
00:10:58,200 --> 00:10:59,583
Is that gonna be a problem?

112
00:11:01,080 --> 00:11:02,418
- No.

113
00:11:02,460 --> 00:11:04,210
I'm sure I can manage the weekends.

114
00:11:06,510 --> 00:11:08,103
- Well, it's settled.

115
00:11:10,650 --> 00:11:13,395
- Thank you.

116
00:11:13,437 --> 00:11:16,728
- You can expect Carla to drop by tomorrow.

117
00:11:16,770 --> 00:11:18,078
- Thank you.

118
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:19,570
- Enjoy the rest of your day.

119
00:11:46,590 --> 00:11:47,423
- Maria.

120
00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:51,593
Sweetheart.

121
00:11:54,930 --> 00:11:56,380
I'm going back to work today.

122
00:11:59,910 --> 00:12:01,460
You're not gonna be home alone.

123
00:12:02,910 --> 00:12:03,743
Okay?

124
00:12:10,110 --> 00:12:11,988
There's a nurse that's
coming here to help assist you

125
00:12:12,030 --> 00:12:13,630
with anything that you may need.

126
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:18,593
Okay?

127
00:12:26,160 --> 00:12:27,310
I'm going back to work.

128
00:12:31,324 --> 00:12:34,241
(doorbell ringing)

129
00:12:35,104 --> 00:12:40,104
That's her.

130
00:12:42,564 --> 00:12:43,942
Carla?

131
00:12:43,984 --> 00:12:45,361
- [Carla] Carla Wales.

132
00:12:45,403 --> 00:12:46,903
- Please, come in.

133
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:57,003
- Carla, this is my wife, Maria.

134
00:12:58,080 --> 00:13:00,813
Maria, this is Carla.

135
00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:03,970
She'll be taking care of you.

136
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:09,950
This is normally what she does.

137
00:13:11,220 --> 00:13:12,273
She doesn't respond.

138
00:13:14,490 --> 00:13:16,040
She sits in that chair all day.

139
00:13:25,950 --> 00:13:26,783
So,

140
00:13:27,630 --> 00:13:30,630
normally I try to wake up in
the mornings and fix breakfast.

141
00:13:31,590 --> 00:13:33,240
It's not a big breakfast anymore.

142
00:13:34,470 --> 00:13:35,883
She doesn't eat as much now.

143
00:13:37,410 --> 00:13:38,883
I wasted a lot of food.

144
00:13:40,680 --> 00:13:42,768
She will take a bite of a bagel,

145
00:13:42,810 --> 00:13:45,693
and she will drink her
coffee, and she likes it hot.

146
00:13:47,580 --> 00:13:50,583
Some mornings, she likes to
go out and sit in the day room.

147
00:13:53,130 --> 00:13:55,428
That's pretty much her daily routine.

148
00:13:55,470 --> 00:13:56,303
- What happened?

149
00:14:00,420 --> 00:14:01,913
- Let me show you to your room.

150
00:14:11,100 --> 00:14:14,043
This one is off limits.

151
00:14:16,590 --> 00:14:18,140
I don't like for her to see it.

152
00:14:21,720 --> 00:14:22,770
We lost our daughter.

153
00:14:25,860 --> 00:14:27,033
After years of trying.

154
00:14:29,910 --> 00:14:32,793
Once we finally got the
daughter that we prayed for,

155
00:14:34,620 --> 00:14:35,973
she died two months later.

156
00:14:38,250 --> 00:14:39,700
Maria still hasn't recovered.

157
00:14:43,590 --> 00:14:45,490
Something happened during the cesarean

158
00:14:46,860 --> 00:14:49,360
that caused her to have
an emergency hysterectomy.

159
00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:52,953
So now,

160
00:14:56,580 --> 00:15:00,513
the chances of us having
another child are none.

161
00:15:03,180 --> 00:15:04,053
- I understand.

162
00:15:14,970 --> 00:15:15,920
- Here's your room.

163
00:15:17,220 --> 00:15:18,920
I hope it's accommodating for you.

164
00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:22,743
- Yes, it is.

165
00:15:59,069 --> 00:16:02,058
- (sighs) Well, I guess
I'd better get going.

166
00:16:02,100 --> 00:16:05,493
I should be home around like
6:00 PM later on this evening.

167
00:16:07,492 --> 00:16:09,588
(sighs) Also remember,

168
00:16:09,630 --> 00:16:12,498
no matter how she rejects or receives you,

169
00:16:12,540 --> 00:16:13,690
she can never fire you.

170
00:16:15,180 --> 00:16:16,983
I paid the contract and signed.

171
00:16:18,450 --> 00:16:20,778
- Okay. Would you like
me to prepare dinner?

172
00:16:20,820 --> 00:16:22,370
That's in our contract as well.

173
00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,128
- Yeah, that sounds great.

174
00:16:25,170 --> 00:16:28,218
- Okay, what would you like
me to make, what's her favorite?

175
00:16:28,260 --> 00:16:31,893
- She likes salad, and she
also happens to like meatloaf.

176
00:16:33,480 --> 00:16:35,298
- Meatloaf and salad? (chuckles)

177
00:16:35,340 --> 00:16:37,458
We'll just do the meatloaf.

178
00:16:37,500 --> 00:16:39,348
- Okay, that sounds good.

179
00:16:39,390 --> 00:16:42,393
- Meatloaf, string beans and potatoes?

180
00:16:43,560 --> 00:16:44,718
- Country girl.

181
00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:45,988
- Born and raised.

182
00:16:46,030 --> 00:16:49,278
(both chuckle)

183
00:16:49,320 --> 00:16:51,288
- Thank you again, Carla,

184
00:16:51,330 --> 00:16:53,130
for taking on such a difficult task.

185
00:16:56,700 --> 00:16:58,158
- You're welcome.

186
00:16:58,200 --> 00:16:59,033
- All right.

187
00:17:05,590 --> 00:17:08,173
(door closing)

188
00:17:18,210 --> 00:17:19,758
- Mrs. Brooks,

189
00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:21,400
would you like some more coffee?

190
00:17:26,760 --> 00:17:27,593
- Yes.

191
00:17:28,588 --> 00:17:29,421
- Okay.

192
00:18:28,017 --> 00:18:31,184
(gentle somber music)

193
00:18:57,916 --> 00:19:01,916
(gentle somber music continues)

194
00:19:13,439 --> 00:19:17,356
(gentle somber music subsides)

195
00:19:20,197 --> 00:19:22,864
(ominous music)

196
00:19:43,076 --> 00:19:46,326
(ominous music livens)

197
00:19:48,048 --> 00:19:50,631
- [Maria] Come outta there now.

198
00:19:52,020 --> 00:19:53,298
- I'm sorry.

199
00:19:53,340 --> 00:19:56,553
- He told you not to go in there.

200
00:20:02,370 --> 00:20:04,263
Don't let it happen again.

201
00:20:09,125 --> 00:20:10,398
(phone ringing)

202
00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:11,273
- Avery?

203
00:20:12,360 --> 00:20:13,968
Welcome back, my boy.

204
00:20:14,010 --> 00:20:15,228
- What's up, bro?

205
00:20:15,270 --> 00:20:16,698
- You holding it together?

206
00:20:16,740 --> 00:20:18,543
- Yeah. It's rough.

207
00:20:19,410 --> 00:20:21,961
But Maria and I, we're
gonna get through this.

208
00:20:22,003 --> 00:20:23,208
- Of course you are.

209
00:20:23,250 --> 00:20:24,450
Maria doing good though?

210
00:20:26,490 --> 00:20:29,178
- Yeah, she is. She's still not talking.

211
00:20:29,220 --> 00:20:31,188
- Hit her pretty hard, huh?

212
00:20:31,230 --> 00:20:34,338
- Yeah, she definitely
took a turn for the worst.

213
00:20:34,380 --> 00:20:37,368
I just hired her around-the-clock
home care service

214
00:20:37,410 --> 00:20:38,418
to help her getting back

215
00:20:38,460 --> 00:20:40,938
to doing the things that she loved to do.

216
00:20:40,980 --> 00:20:44,028
Plus, I needed to get back to work.

217
00:20:44,070 --> 00:20:45,146
- I feel that.

218
00:20:45,188 --> 00:20:46,758
You don't think you came
back too soon though?

219
00:20:46,800 --> 00:20:47,633
- Nah.

220
00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:50,500
Them bills ain't gonna pay themselves.

221
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:53,568
- Well, Ms. Barnette
sent me in here to tell you

222
00:20:53,610 --> 00:20:55,797
she need that Winston
account on her desk by noon.

223
00:20:55,839 --> 00:20:58,158
(Avery sighs)

224
00:20:58,200 --> 00:20:59,928
- Some things never change, I see.

225
00:20:59,970 --> 00:21:00,888
- You the man.

226
00:21:00,930 --> 00:21:02,658
She just know you can
make it happen, that's all.

227
00:21:02,700 --> 00:21:05,418
- You could too, if you
could stop parlaying.

228
00:21:05,460 --> 00:21:07,008
- Hey, hey. (chuckles)

229
00:21:07,050 --> 00:21:08,815
My gambling's not the
problem. (phone ringing)

230
00:21:08,857 --> 00:21:09,648
- Then what is?

231
00:21:09,690 --> 00:21:11,173
- It's that competitor, Stricky McRoy.

232
00:21:13,077 --> 00:21:13,868
- (chuckles) I don't know about that.

233
00:21:13,910 --> 00:21:16,471
- [Shawna] Mr. Brooks, Mrs.
Barnette needs your reports

234
00:21:16,513 --> 00:21:18,346
by the end of the day.

235
00:21:21,833 --> 00:21:24,063
- I got it. I'll get them done.

236
00:21:26,792 --> 00:21:29,959
(gentle somber music)

237
00:21:49,350 --> 00:21:51,029
- Hey, how was work?

238
00:21:51,071 --> 00:21:52,305
- [Avery] It was good.

239
00:21:52,347 --> 00:21:54,318
Did I receive a package today?

240
00:21:54,360 --> 00:21:55,848
- No you didn't.

241
00:21:55,890 --> 00:21:57,678
- Well, I'm waiting on a
very important package.

242
00:21:57,720 --> 00:21:58,511
When it gets here,

243
00:21:58,553 --> 00:22:00,124
can you make sure it's in my room, please?

244
00:22:00,166 --> 00:22:01,918
- I sure will.

245
00:22:01,960 --> 00:22:03,378
- You got it smelling really good in here.

246
00:22:03,420 --> 00:22:06,018
- [Carla] Well, it's about
done. Come on, have a seat.

247
00:22:06,060 --> 00:22:06,893
- Sure.

248
00:22:19,949 --> 00:22:22,068
Why don't you join us?

249
00:22:22,110 --> 00:22:24,363
- Oh, no, I'm gonna eat later.

250
00:22:25,380 --> 00:22:26,171
- [Avery] Oh please,

251
00:22:26,213 --> 00:22:28,008
after you've been slaving
over the stove all day?

252
00:22:28,050 --> 00:22:29,350
It's the least you can do.

253
00:22:30,810 --> 00:22:31,643
- Okay, sure.

254
00:22:57,960 --> 00:22:59,853
- [Avery] So, how did today go?

255
00:23:02,790 --> 00:23:04,053
- It went pretty well.

256
00:23:07,140 --> 00:23:08,673
She stayed to herself.

257
00:23:09,780 --> 00:23:11,508
She did ask for another cup of coffee,

258
00:23:11,550 --> 00:23:12,950
but that was pretty much it.

259
00:23:27,150 --> 00:23:29,918
- She went in the room, Avery.

260
00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:32,627
(ominous music)

261
00:23:34,290 --> 00:23:35,483
- [Avery] What'd you say, honey?

262
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:41,733
- She went in our daughter's room.

263
00:23:48,420 --> 00:23:49,878
- I'm sorry.

264
00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:51,048
I got the rooms confused,

265
00:23:51,090 --> 00:23:52,600
I was only in there a quick second.

266
00:23:52,642 --> 00:23:54,618
- I've asked you not to go in there.

267
00:23:54,660 --> 00:23:56,768
Please respect our wishes.

268
00:23:56,810 --> 00:23:57,601
(ominous music livens)

269
00:23:57,643 --> 00:23:59,673
As you can see, it would upset her.

270
00:24:04,590 --> 00:24:06,590
- Yes, I'm sorry. It won't happen again.

271
00:24:07,468 --> 00:24:08,301
- It better not.

272
00:24:20,430 --> 00:24:22,321
- [Angelo] What up, boy?

273
00:24:22,363 --> 00:24:23,868
- What's up, bro?

274
00:24:23,910 --> 00:24:26,063
You going to get drinks
with the fellas tonight?

275
00:24:27,300 --> 00:24:28,668
- No.

276
00:24:28,710 --> 00:24:29,583
I can't do that.

277
00:24:30,480 --> 00:24:31,780
- Maria's still down, huh?

278
00:24:33,450 --> 00:24:35,868
- It's not gonna happen overnight, Angelo.

279
00:24:35,910 --> 00:24:37,773
- Yeah, I know. That's my bad, bro.

280
00:24:42,689 --> 00:24:43,938
(phone ringing)

281
00:24:43,980 --> 00:24:44,898
- Mr. Brooks,

282
00:24:44,940 --> 00:24:47,508
don't forget your meeting
with Mrs. Barnette at 3:00 PM.

283
00:24:47,550 --> 00:24:48,378
- Okay.

284
00:24:48,420 --> 00:24:49,253
Thank you.

285
00:24:52,620 --> 00:24:54,108
- What you over here looking at, boy?

286
00:24:54,150 --> 00:24:54,983
Yo.

287
00:24:55,950 --> 00:24:58,488
This is not the dolls
I be seeing on TikTok.

288
00:24:58,530 --> 00:25:00,154
That is crazy. Please
tell me you're not thinking

289
00:25:00,196 --> 00:25:02,160
of getting Maria one of these dolls, bro.

290
00:25:04,710 --> 00:25:05,988
- I need to.

291
00:25:06,030 --> 00:25:07,368
- No you don't, bro, trust me.

292
00:25:07,410 --> 00:25:10,188
I'm gonna send you the
video I saw on TikTok, it's crazy.

293
00:25:10,230 --> 00:25:11,748
You gonna have to let
her grieve naturally, bro,

294
00:25:11,790 --> 00:25:12,581
this is not a good idea-(phone ringing)

295
00:25:12,623 --> 00:25:16,248
- Thanks for voicing
concern, but I got this.

296
00:25:16,290 --> 00:25:18,918
- [Shawna] Mr. Brooks,
you have a call on line one.

297
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:19,793
- Lunch?

298
00:25:21,270 --> 00:25:22,103
Sure.

299
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:33,018
- Brooks.

300
00:25:33,060 --> 00:25:34,710
- Hey, Mr. Brooks, this is Carla.

301
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:38,298
I was just wondering if you
thought it was a good idea

302
00:25:38,340 --> 00:25:39,940
if I take her to the park today.

303
00:25:41,790 --> 00:25:43,098
- I'm sure that'll be fine.

304
00:25:43,140 --> 00:25:45,258
- I think it'll be a great idea.

305
00:25:45,300 --> 00:25:47,238
I just wanted to call and
get your permission first,

306
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:48,768
make sure it was okay.

307
00:25:48,810 --> 00:25:49,643
- How is she?

308
00:25:50,730 --> 00:25:52,008
- She's doing great.

309
00:25:52,050 --> 00:25:54,300
I think some fresh air
will do her real good.

310
00:25:55,320 --> 00:25:56,153
- I agree.

311
00:25:58,230 --> 00:25:59,754
I'll see you when I get home.

312
00:25:59,796 --> 00:26:04,796
- [Carla] All right, see you.

313
00:26:05,654 --> 00:26:06,584
(Avery sighs)

314
00:26:06,626 --> 00:26:09,793
(gentle somber music)

315
00:26:30,494 --> 00:26:33,477
(gentle somber music subsides)

316
00:26:33,519 --> 00:26:36,019
(eerie music)

317
00:26:45,150 --> 00:26:45,993
- Excuse me.

318
00:26:47,550 --> 00:26:49,083
My name is Avery Brooks.

319
00:26:51,330 --> 00:26:54,708
I'm trying to check on an
order that I recently purchased.

320
00:26:54,750 --> 00:26:56,118
I had originally done mail-in,

321
00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:59,343
but somehow the tracking
number is unavailable.

322
00:27:01,493 --> 00:27:03,443
- Do you have your confirmation number?

323
00:27:05,130 --> 00:27:07,578
- Hmm, I don't.

324
00:27:07,620 --> 00:27:09,198
But I do have my phone number,

325
00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:12,018
is there any way that you
can look it up that way?

326
00:27:12,060 --> 00:27:13,953
- No. What is the last name?

327
00:27:15,750 --> 00:27:17,268
- Brooks.

328
00:27:17,310 --> 00:27:18,603
Avery Brooks.

329
00:27:20,820 --> 00:27:21,653
- One moment.

330
00:27:24,796 --> 00:27:28,296
(eerie music intensifies)

331
00:27:35,610 --> 00:27:38,103
- I see that you have a
great selection of dolls.

332
00:27:39,810 --> 00:27:42,813
- There are many selections online.

333
00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:47,513
- I've seen.

334
00:27:50,250 --> 00:27:51,543
Do they really help?

335
00:27:53,670 --> 00:27:55,870
- I wouldn't be selling
them if they didn't.

336
00:27:57,210 --> 00:27:58,953
Do you remember the doll's name?

337
00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:03,113
- Name?

338
00:28:05,130 --> 00:28:07,038
I don't, I don't understand.

339
00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:08,793
- All of the dolls have a name.

340
00:28:10,650 --> 00:28:11,613
- I don't remember.

341
00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:14,913
Maybe if I seen her I wouldn't know.

342
00:28:15,810 --> 00:28:17,883
- Well, then take a look around.

343
00:28:24,120 --> 00:28:27,453
(eerie music continues)

344
00:28:40,403 --> 00:28:41,903
- I don't see her.

345
00:28:44,100 --> 00:28:47,553
- Tell me, Mr. Brooks, why
are you purchasing the doll?

346
00:28:51,040 --> 00:28:51,831
- Your website says

347
00:28:51,873 --> 00:28:54,243
that it helps with
grief-stricken individuals.

348
00:28:55,890 --> 00:28:57,093
- That's true.

349
00:28:59,670 --> 00:29:01,473
- So, I got one for my wife.

350
00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:07,260
We recently lost our daughter.

351
00:29:10,620 --> 00:29:11,643
- I see.

352
00:29:13,440 --> 00:29:14,273
I'll be back.

353
00:29:15,161 --> 00:29:18,494
(eerie music continues)

354
00:29:46,440 --> 00:29:49,338
Mr. Brooks, is this the one you picked out?

355
00:29:49,380 --> 00:29:51,513
- Yes. This is the one.

356
00:29:52,770 --> 00:29:54,870
- [Mrs. Sekans] Sorry about the confusion.

357
00:29:56,100 --> 00:29:57,888
- Are there any instructions?

358
00:29:57,930 --> 00:30:00,588
- No. There's no instructions.

359
00:30:00,630 --> 00:30:02,988
Once the doll is connected to your wife,

360
00:30:03,030 --> 00:30:04,803
the healing process will begin.

361
00:30:07,290 --> 00:30:10,248
- You sure? Is there anything
that I need to say to her?

362
00:30:10,290 --> 00:30:12,768
- It will manifest in time.

363
00:30:12,810 --> 00:30:16,128
Whatever your wife need
will be through the doll.

364
00:30:16,170 --> 00:30:20,673
Now, if you'll excuse me,
I have more orders to fill.

365
00:30:23,610 --> 00:30:24,803
- Thank you, Ms...

366
00:30:26,380 --> 00:30:27,213
- Sekans.

367
00:30:29,370 --> 00:30:30,633
- Yes. Thank you.

368
00:30:51,859 --> 00:30:55,109
(eerie music subsides)

369
00:30:57,948 --> 00:30:58,781
Hey.

370
00:31:02,450 --> 00:31:04,188
Is she asleep?

371
00:31:04,230 --> 00:31:07,503
- Yeah. She turned in early tonight.

372
00:31:09,120 --> 00:31:10,818
I put you a plate in the microwave

373
00:31:10,860 --> 00:31:12,978
when I seen you we're gonna be late.

374
00:31:13,020 --> 00:31:16,053
- Yeah, work went a
little longer than expected.

375
00:31:17,730 --> 00:31:20,628
So, how did today go?

376
00:31:20,670 --> 00:31:22,863
- Today was great, we went to the park.

377
00:31:28,140 --> 00:31:30,363
Uh, what was her name?

378
00:31:32,430 --> 00:31:33,263
- Whose name?

379
00:31:34,170 --> 00:31:35,003
- Your daughter.

380
00:31:38,760 --> 00:31:39,593
- Eliza.

381
00:31:42,330 --> 00:31:44,330
She was named after Maria's grandmother.

382
00:31:46,890 --> 00:31:47,723
Why you ask?

383
00:31:49,867 --> 00:31:52,293
- That was the name
that she muttered earlier.

384
00:31:54,660 --> 00:31:55,493
- Hmm.

385
00:31:57,360 --> 00:31:59,373
And what exactly did she say?

386
00:32:00,810 --> 00:32:04,023
- She told me to go check on Eliza.

387
00:32:05,190 --> 00:32:08,058
I wasn't really sure
who she was referring to.

388
00:32:08,100 --> 00:32:10,623
I figured it was your
daughter, but I wasn't sure.

389
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:13,700
- So what did you say?

390
00:32:15,720 --> 00:32:18,483
- I didn't say anything, I
just figured she was tired.

391
00:32:19,590 --> 00:32:20,423
- Yeah.

392
00:32:23,010 --> 00:32:24,660
Grief doesn't come with a manual.

393
00:32:29,033 --> 00:32:32,043
- (sighs) Yeah, we just gotta
take it one day at a time.

394
00:32:36,570 --> 00:32:37,403
How'd she die?

395
00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:43,073
- SID.

396
00:32:50,700 --> 00:32:51,533
- Um,

397
00:32:52,500 --> 00:32:53,400
what's that?

398
00:32:56,970 --> 00:32:58,070
- They're grief dolls.

399
00:33:03,390 --> 00:33:04,488
- I looked those up before,

400
00:33:04,530 --> 00:33:06,543
I heard a lot of bad things about 'em.

401
00:33:09,630 --> 00:33:11,973
- Yeah, I've heard that before.

402
00:33:16,170 --> 00:33:19,173
- Me personally, I don't
think it's a good idea, Avery.

403
00:33:20,070 --> 00:33:22,383
I've read horror stories
about those things.

404
00:33:25,860 --> 00:33:28,623
- Carla, have you ever been in love?

405
00:33:30,810 --> 00:33:31,643
- No.

406
00:33:37,255 --> 00:33:41,672
- Then you can't possibly
understand the power of it.

407
00:33:44,760 --> 00:33:46,683
I love that woman in there,

408
00:33:48,450 --> 00:33:50,718
and I'm willing to do anything

409
00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:52,310
to get her to come back around.

410
00:33:54,030 --> 00:33:58,773
So if that doll is gonna help
me to do that, then so be it.

411
00:34:01,140 --> 00:34:04,443
Bottom line is, I want my wife back.

412
00:34:06,134 --> 00:34:08,134
(sighs)

413
00:34:21,911 --> 00:34:24,411
(chill music)

414
00:35:00,840 --> 00:35:02,823
- Sorry I hurt your feelings earlier.

415
00:35:04,170 --> 00:35:05,003
- It's fine.

416
00:35:06,720 --> 00:35:11,220
- Is there anything I can
do to make it up for you?

417
00:35:18,327 --> 00:35:19,908
You know, sometimes in life,

418
00:35:19,950 --> 00:35:21,963
things come that's gonna challenge us,

419
00:35:22,980 --> 00:35:24,230
but we gotta get through.

420
00:35:26,820 --> 00:35:28,113
Do you agree with that?

421
00:35:30,600 --> 00:35:31,433
- Yes.

422
00:35:37,980 --> 00:35:40,550
- When's the last time you've been touched?

423
00:35:44,157 --> 00:35:45,324
- A long time.

424
00:35:47,340 --> 00:35:48,173
Too long.

425
00:35:49,074 --> 00:35:52,407
(chill music continues)

426
00:36:12,900 --> 00:36:14,370
I can help you with that.

427
00:36:18,090 --> 00:36:18,923
- Please.

428
00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:21,233
Help me.

429
00:36:22,810 --> 00:36:26,143
(chill music continues)

430
00:36:42,835 --> 00:36:45,615
(chill music subsides)

431
00:36:45,657 --> 00:36:46,490
- Avery.

432
00:36:47,883 --> 00:36:48,716
Get up.

433
00:36:52,743 --> 00:36:54,288
Avery.

434
00:36:54,330 --> 00:36:56,750
How much of this liquor you done had?

435
00:36:58,350 --> 00:37:00,793
- What's going on? (groans)

436
00:37:02,340 --> 00:37:03,640
- You need to go lay down.

437
00:37:05,279 --> 00:37:06,168
- Yeah.

438
00:37:06,210 --> 00:37:08,610
- You was having a wild
dream there, wasn't you?

439
00:37:09,660 --> 00:37:10,791
- Good night.

440
00:37:10,833 --> 00:37:12,423
- Good night, Mr. Brooks.

441
00:37:15,750 --> 00:37:18,833
(gentle sober music)

442
00:37:29,023 --> 00:37:31,690
(feet stepping)

443
00:37:35,040 --> 00:37:37,233
- Good morning, Avery. How's Maria?

444
00:37:38,730 --> 00:37:40,458
- She's doing fine.

445
00:37:40,500 --> 00:37:43,050
- Well, that's great. I'm
here to congratulate you.

446
00:37:44,580 --> 00:37:45,678
- On what?

447
00:37:45,720 --> 00:37:48,108
- The Riots Corporation is
considering us for their account,

448
00:37:48,150 --> 00:37:49,550
and it's all because of you.

449
00:37:51,030 --> 00:37:51,821
- Really?

450
00:37:51,863 --> 00:37:53,898
- Yeah, Shawna's planning
the banquet as we speak

451
00:37:53,940 --> 00:37:55,878
for some of our projected clients.

452
00:37:55,920 --> 00:37:58,169
The Riots Corporation
will be our top priority.

453
00:37:58,211 --> 00:37:59,002
(phone ringing)

454
00:37:59,044 --> 00:38:02,238
The banquet will be held the
last Saturday of this month.

455
00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:03,318
Do you think Maria will be ready

456
00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:05,160
to join you on this important night?

457
00:38:07,320 --> 00:38:08,153
- Mm.

458
00:38:09,030 --> 00:38:10,680
I can't even get her out the bed.

459
00:38:12,150 --> 00:38:13,398
You should go without me.

460
00:38:13,440 --> 00:38:16,638
- Are you kidding me? We
have a lot of hands to shake.

461
00:38:16,680 --> 00:38:19,458
It's an important deal,
you have to be there.

462
00:38:19,500 --> 00:38:21,378
I'm sure Maria has a sister or a cousin

463
00:38:21,420 --> 00:38:23,470
that can take her place to accompany you.

464
00:38:25,920 --> 00:38:27,318
- I'm sure I'll find someone.

465
00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:28,893
- Good. Give my best to Maria.

466
00:38:37,021 --> 00:38:40,998
- Hey. You gonna grab
drinks with us tonight?

467
00:38:41,040 --> 00:38:42,498
- Not tonight.

468
00:38:42,540 --> 00:38:43,908
- Maria... Maria.

469
00:38:43,950 --> 00:38:45,018
I know, bro.

470
00:38:45,060 --> 00:38:46,510
Bro, didn't you hire a nanny?

471
00:38:47,400 --> 00:38:48,858
- She's a home care provider.

472
00:38:48,900 --> 00:38:49,788
- Same thing.

473
00:38:49,830 --> 00:38:52,878
What I'm saying is, why
can't she watch Maria

474
00:38:52,920 --> 00:38:54,918
while you come and grab drinks with us?

475
00:38:54,960 --> 00:38:55,793
- Trust me.

476
00:38:56,640 --> 00:38:58,813
You wanna do more than just grab a drink.

477
00:38:58,855 --> 00:38:59,688
- (scoffs) Yeah.

478
00:39:04,260 --> 00:39:06,063
- Here you go, Mr. Brooks.

479
00:39:08,040 --> 00:39:10,328
Um, you know I'm available to escort you

480
00:39:10,370 --> 00:39:11,763
to the banquet if you like.

481
00:39:13,080 --> 00:39:16,578
- Um, no thank you. I'll be fine.

482
00:39:16,620 --> 00:39:19,068
- Well, let me know if
you change your mind.

483
00:39:19,110 --> 00:39:19,943
- [Avery] Sure.

484
00:39:26,131 --> 00:39:27,468
- Mm-mm-mm.

485
00:39:27,510 --> 00:39:29,328
Now, that's a fine woman.

486
00:39:29,370 --> 00:39:30,738
- I wouldn't know.

487
00:39:30,780 --> 00:39:33,228
- You might be married,
but you ain't blind.

488
00:39:33,270 --> 00:39:34,470
- Practice self control.

489
00:39:35,550 --> 00:39:38,028
I would never cheat on my wife.

490
00:39:38,070 --> 00:39:38,903
- Drinks?

491
00:39:40,830 --> 00:39:41,663
- No.

492
00:39:42,630 --> 00:39:43,503
See you tomorrow.

493
00:39:49,383 --> 00:39:52,466
(gentle sober music)

494
00:40:25,860 --> 00:40:26,703
- Oh hey.

495
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:29,873
- What's up?

496
00:40:33,973 --> 00:40:34,806
So,

497
00:40:35,962 --> 00:40:37,428
how did today go?

498
00:40:37,470 --> 00:40:40,203
- It went good. She
said she would eat later.

499
00:40:41,550 --> 00:40:43,158
- She said that?

500
00:40:43,200 --> 00:40:46,113
- Yeah, she's been saying
one or two words lately.

501
00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:48,113
- Hmm.

502
00:40:49,260 --> 00:40:50,560
You're really helping out.

503
00:40:52,243 --> 00:40:54,483
- (sighs) I've been doing what I can.

504
00:41:00,630 --> 00:41:01,518
How was work?

505
00:41:01,560 --> 00:41:02,960
What's wrong? You seem down.

506
00:41:04,230 --> 00:41:05,063
- Nothing.

507
00:41:07,620 --> 00:41:08,913
Well, it's work.

508
00:41:10,889 --> 00:41:13,848
(Avery sighs)

509
00:41:13,890 --> 00:41:15,153
- Tell me about it.

510
00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:19,098
- I think I just scored my firm

511
00:41:19,140 --> 00:41:21,190
one of the biggest accounts they've seen.

512
00:41:24,180 --> 00:41:25,180
- Well that's great.

513
00:41:26,850 --> 00:41:28,443
- Yeah, it is.

514
00:41:30,379 --> 00:41:31,428
(Avery sighs)

515
00:41:31,470 --> 00:41:33,408
They're holding a banquet
for potential new clients

516
00:41:33,450 --> 00:41:34,850
a couple Saturdays from now.

517
00:41:36,750 --> 00:41:39,693
My boss, she wants me to bring Maria,

518
00:41:41,358 --> 00:41:43,283
but I don't think she's gonna be up for it.

519
00:41:44,610 --> 00:41:46,438
- You can't go alone?

520
00:41:46,480 --> 00:41:47,313
- No.

521
00:41:48,600 --> 00:41:51,183
My boss says I need an escort.

522
00:41:52,200 --> 00:41:54,700
She said it will be a
better look for the company.

523
00:41:57,180 --> 00:41:58,953
It's just adding more stress to me.

524
00:41:59,910 --> 00:42:00,743
- Hmm.

525
00:42:02,430 --> 00:42:03,933
Well, I'm free.

526
00:42:05,204 --> 00:42:08,277
- (chuckles) Oh no, I
can't ask you to do that.

527
00:42:09,870 --> 00:42:12,033
- I don't do anything on the weekends.

528
00:42:13,410 --> 00:42:15,303
I can go, I can go with you.

529
00:42:17,070 --> 00:42:17,903
- Okay.

530
00:42:18,870 --> 00:42:21,653
Well, I guess you'll be
escorting me to the banquet.

531
00:42:21,695 --> 00:42:23,523
- (chuckles) I guess I will.

532
00:42:27,180 --> 00:42:28,013
- Thanks.

533
00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:48,953
Maria.

534
00:42:53,490 --> 00:42:54,323
Honey.

535
00:42:59,792 --> 00:43:02,625
I have someone I want you to meet.

536
00:43:25,720 --> 00:43:27,220
It's a grief doll.

537
00:43:29,130 --> 00:43:30,093
Her name is Libby.

538
00:43:33,570 --> 00:43:36,513
The website says it's
supposed to help comfort you.

539
00:43:44,673 --> 00:43:46,173
(sighs) See you later tonight.

540
00:43:52,620 --> 00:43:55,278
I might be a little late
coming home this evening.

541
00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:57,120
I got some work to do at the office.

542
00:43:58,860 --> 00:44:01,698
- Okay, I'll check in
with you about noontime.

543
00:44:01,740 --> 00:44:03,318
- Okay, I'll call you around lunch,

544
00:44:03,360 --> 00:44:04,610

(phone ringing)

563
00:45:43,860 --> 00:45:45,168
- Hello?

564
00:45:45,210 --> 00:45:46,353
- Hello, Carla?

565
00:45:47,610 --> 00:45:49,533
- No, it's me.

566
00:45:51,210 --> 00:45:52,043
- Maria?

567
00:45:55,316 --> 00:45:56,688
How you feeling, baby?

568
00:45:56,730 --> 00:45:58,968
- I feel wonderful.

569
00:45:59,010 --> 00:46:00,528
Libby has kept me so busy,

570
00:46:00,570 --> 00:46:03,588
but she's been asleep most of the day.

571
00:46:03,630 --> 00:46:05,748
- [Avery] Hmm. So
you're bonding with Libby?

572
00:46:05,790 --> 00:46:07,878
- Yes I am.

573
00:46:07,920 --> 00:46:09,858
Honey, we need to go shopping on Saturday

574
00:46:09,900 --> 00:46:11,903
to get Libby some more things, okay?

575
00:46:12,990 --> 00:46:15,048
- [Avery] Sure. Anything for you, baby.

576
00:46:15,090 --> 00:46:16,383
Is Carla nearby?

577
00:46:19,980 --> 00:46:21,858
- Yes, she is.

578
00:46:21,900 --> 00:46:24,843
She wasn't when I
needed her earlier though.

579
00:46:27,750 --> 00:46:29,350
I'm gonna go lay Libby down now.

580
00:46:32,340 --> 00:46:33,978
- Carla, you there?

581
00:46:34,020 --> 00:46:34,853
- Yes.

582
00:46:36,090 --> 00:46:39,168
- She seems to be doing fine.
She sounds like her old self.

583
00:46:39,210 --> 00:46:42,138
- Avery, I have a bad feeling about this.

584
00:46:42,180 --> 00:46:44,103
- The doll is not to replace Eliza.

585
00:46:45,090 --> 00:46:48,438
Just hang in there with
me. I need your help.

586
00:46:48,480 --> 00:46:49,473
- Okay, sure.

587
00:46:51,780 --> 00:46:54,888
- I have to work late
tonight, so I'll be a little late.

588
00:46:54,930 --> 00:46:56,698
- All right. See you later.

589
00:46:56,740 --> 00:46:58,345
- Okay. Talk to you later.

590
00:46:58,387 --> 00:46:59,220
- Okay.

591
00:47:07,955 --> 00:47:10,622
(water running)

592
00:47:35,460 --> 00:47:36,293
- Carla.

593
00:47:37,740 --> 00:47:38,770
Where are you?

594
00:47:43,904 --> 00:47:44,737
Carla.

595
00:47:55,140 --> 00:47:55,973
- What is it?

596
00:47:56,880 --> 00:47:58,580
- Did you not hear me calling you?

597
00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:00,933
- I was in the shower.

598
00:48:01,950 --> 00:48:04,248
- Well, Libby needs some diapers.

599
00:48:04,290 --> 00:48:06,725
Go down to Target and get some.

600
00:48:06,767 --> 00:48:08,748
- (chuckles) Are you serious?

601
00:48:08,790 --> 00:48:10,593
- Do you wanna keep your job?

602
00:48:11,790 --> 00:48:12,708
- Yes.

603
00:48:12,750 --> 00:48:14,973
- Then I'm not kidding. Go.

604
00:48:20,490 --> 00:48:21,390
- What's going on?

605
00:48:22,230 --> 00:48:24,678
- Mrs. Brooks want me to go down to Target

606
00:48:24,720 --> 00:48:26,958
and get Libby some Pampers.

607
00:48:27,000 --> 00:48:28,803
- And? What's the problem?

608
00:48:34,740 --> 00:48:35,573
Thanks.

609
00:48:41,538 --> 00:48:44,868
(people chattering indistinctly)

610
00:48:44,910 --> 00:48:48,018
- How is things going
with the Brooks family?

611
00:48:48,060 --> 00:48:50,448
That's what I'm here to talk to you about.

612
00:48:50,490 --> 00:48:52,038
- Why? What's going on?

613
00:48:52,080 --> 00:48:53,208
I just spoke with Mr. Brooks,

614
00:48:53,250 --> 00:48:55,608
and he said everything's going well.

615
00:48:55,650 --> 00:48:57,558
- Did he mention the doll?

616
00:48:57,600 --> 00:48:59,598
- No, he did not.

617
00:48:59,640 --> 00:49:00,513
- He should have.

618
00:49:01,830 --> 00:49:02,663
- What's wrong?

619
00:49:04,260 --> 00:49:06,678
- Mr. Brooks got his wife
one of those grief dolls,

620
00:49:06,720 --> 00:49:07,578
you heard about 'em?

621
00:49:07,620 --> 00:49:09,825
- [Ms. Ryder] Yes, I've heard of them.

622
00:49:09,867 --> 00:49:11,688
- (sighs) Well, he got her one,

623
00:49:11,730 --> 00:49:13,608
and instead of it making her better,

624
00:49:13,650 --> 00:49:15,108
I believe it's messing up her mental.

625
00:49:15,150 --> 00:49:16,100
- What do you mean?

626
00:49:17,040 --> 00:49:18,990
- She wants me to take care of the doll

627
00:49:19,830 --> 00:49:21,183
like it's a real baby.

628
00:49:22,200 --> 00:49:24,948
This is bizarre. It's crazy.

629
00:49:24,990 --> 00:49:25,893
I can't do it.

630
00:49:28,504 --> 00:49:32,013
- (sighs) Carla, this is your job.

631
00:49:33,180 --> 00:49:34,653
It's the reason it's for you.

632
00:49:35,670 --> 00:49:37,300
This is the most money

633
00:49:38,430 --> 00:49:40,563
in a contract this company has received.

634
00:49:42,810 --> 00:49:44,883
Besides, we need the funds.

635
00:49:45,810 --> 00:49:48,723
- Ms. Ryder, please.
Can I switch with Rissa?

636
00:49:50,340 --> 00:49:51,173
- No.

637
00:49:52,763 --> 00:49:55,968
The Winstons love Rissa,
she's been there two months.

638
00:49:56,010 --> 00:49:58,113
She's developed quite an impression.

639
00:49:59,160 --> 00:50:00,768
- Please.

640
00:50:00,810 --> 00:50:02,223
I can't do this.

641
00:50:03,930 --> 00:50:06,152
- Carla, you're supposed to do it.

642
00:50:06,194 --> 00:50:07,744
There's a reason it's with you.

643
00:50:08,850 --> 00:50:12,228
This is the most money you have received.

644
00:50:12,270 --> 00:50:14,058
You say you wanna go to art school,

645
00:50:14,100 --> 00:50:16,053
so save the money and go back.

646
00:50:17,070 --> 00:50:18,303
- I'm just scared.

647
00:50:19,290 --> 00:50:22,503
She's obsessed with this doll,
this is gonna be a problem.

648
00:50:23,844 --> 00:50:25,444
- It is not your responsibility.

649
00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:27,603
You have a job to do.

650
00:50:32,250 --> 00:50:34,263
Do you think you came back too soon?

651
00:50:35,460 --> 00:50:37,068
- I'm fine.

652
00:50:37,110 --> 00:50:38,013
- Are you sure?

653
00:50:40,080 --> 00:50:40,998
- Yes, Ms. Ryder,

654
00:50:41,040 --> 00:50:43,840
this doesn't have anything
to do with my mother's death.

655
00:50:45,120 --> 00:50:46,083
I'm just,

656
00:50:47,460 --> 00:50:48,293
I'm okay.

657
00:50:49,860 --> 00:50:50,778
I'm fine.

658
00:50:50,820 --> 00:50:52,983
- Okay. Come back Friday.

659
00:50:59,970 --> 00:51:01,917
- [Rissa] I hate Miss Winston's dog.

660
00:51:01,959 --> 00:51:03,433
- Aw, I love dogs.

661
00:51:03,475 --> 00:51:05,208
(television playing in background)

662
00:51:05,250 --> 00:51:08,418
- You love dogs, I can't stand them.

663
00:51:08,460 --> 00:51:10,660
I can't wait till this
assignment over with.

664
00:51:11,520 --> 00:51:14,823
- Well, at least you got beings that move.

665
00:51:16,820 --> 00:51:18,540
- What? What you mean?

666
00:51:20,141 --> 00:51:22,338
- (sighs) I am down there with the Brooks,

667
00:51:22,380 --> 00:51:25,683
and I'm telling you right
now, I am about to lose it.

668
00:51:27,270 --> 00:51:29,373
- Oh, you got the rich couple.

669
00:51:30,300 --> 00:51:32,298
How'd you get that? You lucky.

670
00:51:32,340 --> 00:51:34,068
- 'Cause when I came back from my leave,

671
00:51:34,110 --> 00:51:35,748
you already had a client,

672
00:51:35,790 --> 00:51:37,758
and that's the that case I got stuck with.

673
00:51:37,800 --> 00:51:38,633
- How is she?

674
00:51:39,870 --> 00:51:41,478
- Well,

675
00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:43,083
she was great at first.

676
00:51:45,240 --> 00:51:47,118
I used to just make sure she had a coffee

677
00:51:47,160 --> 00:51:48,948
and something to eat.

678
00:51:48,990 --> 00:51:51,258
But things done change now.

679
00:51:51,300 --> 00:51:52,173
- What you mean?

680
00:51:54,360 --> 00:51:56,478
- Here come her husband
with that grief doll,

681
00:51:56,520 --> 00:51:57,618
you heard about them?

682
00:51:57,660 --> 00:51:59,418
- Yeah, I heard about it.

683
00:51:59,460 --> 00:52:00,738
- Well, he got her one,

684
00:52:00,780 --> 00:52:02,388
and she acting like the doll real

685
00:52:02,430 --> 00:52:05,058
like her daughter done came
back from the dead or something.

686
00:52:05,100 --> 00:52:06,482
This is insane.

687
00:52:06,524 --> 00:52:09,274
(Rissa chuckles)

688
00:52:10,877 --> 00:52:13,292
For real, Rissa. It's not funny.

689
00:52:13,334 --> 00:52:14,913
- (laughs) It's not funny.

690
00:52:16,050 --> 00:52:18,018
But I know your expressions.

691
00:52:18,060 --> 00:52:19,038
What they do?

692
00:52:19,080 --> 00:52:20,028
- I'm serious,

693
00:52:20,070 --> 00:52:24,267
she told me to go to Target
and get that doll some diapers.

694
00:52:24,309 --> 00:52:26,892
(Rissa laughs)

695
00:52:31,080 --> 00:52:32,417
For real, Rissa.

696
00:52:33,720 --> 00:52:35,303
- I know it's not funny,
I know it's not funny.

697
00:52:37,110 --> 00:52:37,943
But,

698
00:52:40,050 --> 00:52:41,400
what you gonna do about it?

699
00:52:43,710 --> 00:52:46,323
- I'm so sick of her
and that dang-gone doll.

700
00:52:47,370 --> 00:52:49,738
I'm gonna burn it or
something, I'm getting rid of it.

701
00:52:49,780 --> 00:52:51,355
- Girl, what you gonna do?

702
00:52:51,397 --> 00:52:53,843
- I ain't going nowhere,
'cause I need that money.

703
00:52:54,720 --> 00:52:56,118
- [Rissa] You right.

704
00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:57,210
So how's the husband?

705
00:52:58,140 --> 00:52:59,403
- Oh, he all right.

706
00:53:02,910 --> 00:53:05,838
Okay, he is fine.

707
00:53:05,880 --> 00:53:09,262
But I must say, I've been
keeping it very professional.

708
00:53:09,304 --> 00:53:11,360
- (chuckles) It shouldn't have been me.

709
00:53:11,402 --> 00:53:12,528
'Cause you know my sick life,

710
00:53:12,570 --> 00:53:15,108
I would've been right up under him.

711
00:53:15,150 --> 00:53:16,308
- We know.

712
00:53:16,350 --> 00:53:17,778
Because you a freak.

713
00:53:17,820 --> 00:53:20,148
- And he is. (chuckles)

714
00:53:20,190 --> 00:53:24,138
- But, he asked me to go to a banquet

715
00:53:24,180 --> 00:53:26,568
at his job with him this weekend.

716
00:53:26,610 --> 00:53:28,160
- And why his wife ain't going?

717
00:53:29,130 --> 00:53:30,558
- I told you, the lady loony

718
00:53:30,600 --> 00:53:31,878
ever since she done got that doll,

719
00:53:31,920 --> 00:53:34,308
she can't go out there
and embarrass him like that.

720
00:53:34,350 --> 00:53:36,858
I agreed to go with him,
he need peace on that night.

721
00:53:36,900 --> 00:53:38,238
- So y'all done gotten close?

722
00:53:38,280 --> 00:53:40,038
- Not really close.

723
00:53:40,080 --> 00:53:41,688
He just talks to me about everything

724
00:53:41,730 --> 00:53:44,666
'cause his wife not in her right mind.

725
00:53:44,708 --> 00:53:46,188
- All right, now.

726
00:53:46,230 --> 00:53:49,968
Don't let him give you that
thunderbolt. You know the rules.

727
00:53:50,010 --> 00:53:51,618
- I'm just doing my job, trust me,

728
00:53:51,660 --> 00:53:53,060
I'm keeping it professional.

729
00:53:54,122 --> 00:53:55,205
- Yeah, okay.

730
00:54:14,640 --> 00:54:15,473
- Baby.

731
00:54:17,370 --> 00:54:18,243
How did today go?

732
00:54:19,620 --> 00:54:21,708
- It was wonderful.

733
00:54:21,750 --> 00:54:23,493
I love her so much.

734
00:54:26,430 --> 00:54:27,630
- I'm glad you do, baby.

735
00:54:30,090 --> 00:54:33,183
- Thank you for bringing
Libby into my life.

736
00:54:34,200 --> 00:54:35,913
She's made me so happy.

737
00:54:41,730 --> 00:54:42,580
- You're welcome.

738
00:54:53,970 --> 00:54:56,778
- Honey, not tonight.

739
00:54:56,820 --> 00:54:58,953
Libby is right in the next room.

740
00:55:01,650 --> 00:55:04,578
- Maria, it's been eight months.

741
00:55:04,620 --> 00:55:06,093
I have needs, Maria.

742
00:55:07,500 --> 00:55:09,108
- Do you?

743
00:55:09,150 --> 00:55:11,448
Well, Libby has needs too.

744
00:55:11,490 --> 00:55:14,733
So like I said, not tonight.

745
00:55:22,457 --> 00:55:24,957
(chill music)

746
00:55:56,640 --> 00:55:58,373
- [Avery] Nice place you have here.

747
00:56:00,570 --> 00:56:03,721
- Thanks. This is my little castle.

748
00:56:03,763 --> 00:56:05,413
- [Avery] I see you're an artist.

749
00:56:08,160 --> 00:56:10,278
- [Carla] Once upon a time.

750
00:56:10,320 --> 00:56:12,318
That's a piece I did for a client.

751
00:56:12,360 --> 00:56:14,193
I don't do much art these days.

752
00:56:16,200 --> 00:56:17,033
- Why not?

753
00:56:18,420 --> 00:56:20,388
- It costs money to get in those art shows

754
00:56:20,430 --> 00:56:22,068
I wanna participate in.

755
00:56:22,110 --> 00:56:22,943
- How much?

756
00:56:24,720 --> 00:56:25,593
- A lot.

757
00:56:26,790 --> 00:56:27,691
- Try me.

758
00:56:27,733 --> 00:56:29,748
(chill music continues)

759
00:56:29,790 --> 00:56:31,690
- Mr. Brooks, I don't need your money.

760
00:56:34,530 --> 00:56:36,138
- I just wanna thank you,

761
00:56:36,180 --> 00:56:38,903
and compensate you for going
with me tonight to the banquet.

762
00:56:40,050 --> 00:56:42,813
You handed yourself
beautiful and professional.

763
00:56:46,140 --> 00:56:46,983
- Thanks.

764
00:56:49,110 --> 00:56:52,803
It's a $5,000 entry fee for each piece.

765
00:56:53,940 --> 00:56:55,578
- How many pieces do you have?

766
00:56:55,620 --> 00:56:56,453
- Four.

767
00:57:00,022 --> 00:57:00,855
- Done.

768
00:57:01,937 --> 00:57:04,443
You'll have your bonus
by the end of the contract.

769
00:57:10,490 --> 00:57:13,791
- Can I ask you to do
something else for me?

770
00:57:13,833 --> 00:57:14,666
- Sure.

771
00:57:16,693 --> 00:57:18,276
- Can you unzip me?

772
00:57:19,243 --> 00:57:20,617
- Yes.

773
00:57:20,659 --> 00:57:23,992
(chill music continues)

774
00:57:45,519 --> 00:57:48,852
(chill music continues)

775
00:57:51,052 --> 00:57:55,196
- I'll be right back, I
know you gotta get home.

776
00:57:55,238 --> 00:57:56,071
- Yeah.

777
00:57:57,661 --> 00:57:58,494

(Carla vomits)

791
00:59:03,270 --> 00:59:04,103
- Carla.

792
00:59:05,220 --> 00:59:06,093
Where are you?

793
00:59:08,130 --> 00:59:12,543
- Yeah, I'll be out in a minute. (sighs)

794
00:59:13,409 --> 00:59:16,242
(toilet flushing)

795
00:59:20,266 --> 00:59:22,766
(Maria sighs)

796
00:59:28,470 --> 00:59:29,303
Yes?

797
00:59:30,180 --> 00:59:32,298
- Libby needs a pediatrician.

798
00:59:32,340 --> 00:59:34,335
I need you to make her
a doctor's appointment.

799
00:59:34,377 --> 00:59:35,943
- (chuckles) Are you serious?

800
00:59:36,900 --> 00:59:40,323
- You heard me. Set Libby
up a doctor's appointment.

801
00:59:41,160 --> 00:59:42,468
- I'm sorry Mrs. Brooks,

802
00:59:42,510 --> 00:59:45,198
but I cannot fulfill that request for you.

803
00:59:45,240 --> 00:59:48,588
- Well, if you can't fulfill that request,

804
00:59:48,630 --> 00:59:50,148
then you're fired.

805
00:59:50,190 --> 00:59:51,387
Go pack your things.

806
00:59:51,429 --> 00:59:54,987
- (chuckles) You can't fire
me, only Mr. Brooks can.

807
00:59:55,029 --> 00:59:58,635
- (scoffs) Is that what he told you?

808
00:59:58,677 --> 00:59:59,468
(ominous music)

809
00:59:59,510 --> 01:00:02,043
Who do you think has
been paying your salary?

810
01:00:03,660 --> 01:00:06,378
I'm the one with all the money.

811
01:00:06,420 --> 01:00:09,318
My family's old money, to be exact.

812
01:00:09,360 --> 01:00:11,103
And Avery,

813
01:00:12,030 --> 01:00:13,788
he's broke.

814
01:00:13,830 --> 01:00:17,857
So like I said, go pack
your things and get out.

815
01:00:20,271 --> 01:00:25,271
- (scoffs) I sure will.

816
01:00:46,240 --> 01:00:49,657
(ominous music subsides)

817
01:00:53,314 --> 01:00:55,981
(phone ringing)

818
01:01:02,970 --> 01:01:06,183
- Mr. Brooks, Mr. Lewis is
confirming lunch at two o'clock.

819
01:01:07,950 --> 01:01:09,423
- No, reschedule.

820
01:01:10,800 --> 01:01:15,123
- And Mrs. Burnett would like
the weekly report in an hour.

821
01:01:17,310 --> 01:01:18,783
- I'll get right on it.

822
01:01:18,825 --> 01:01:20,598
- Are you all right, Mr. Brooks?

823
01:01:20,640 --> 01:01:22,127
Is there anything I can do?

824
01:01:27,493 --> 01:01:28,861
- Yes.

825
01:01:28,903 --> 01:01:30,324
Leave.

826
01:01:30,366 --> 01:01:31,199
- Okay.

827
01:01:41,970 --> 01:01:43,496
- What up, bro?

828
01:01:43,538 --> 01:01:45,138
Why weren't you at the
meeting this morning?

829
01:01:45,180 --> 01:01:46,023
- Not right now.

830
01:01:48,995 --> 01:01:50,268
- Why you acting like you
done cheated on your wife

831
01:01:50,310 --> 01:01:53,073
and you scared to tell her? (chuckles)

832
01:01:56,173 --> 01:01:57,540
- I did.

833
01:01:57,582 --> 01:01:58,832
- You did what?

834
01:02:02,820 --> 01:02:04,068
- I cheated on her with Carla.

835
01:02:04,110 --> 01:02:04,901
- The help?

836
01:02:04,943 --> 01:02:06,558
Man, how you gonna do that to Maria?

837
01:02:06,600 --> 01:02:07,550
- It just happened.

838
01:02:08,430 --> 01:02:10,398
We had too many drinks.

839
01:02:10,440 --> 01:02:11,958
- So what you gonna do?

840
01:02:12,000 --> 01:02:15,501
- [Shawna] Mr. Brooks,
you have a call on line two.

841
01:02:15,543 --> 01:02:16,843
- Man, you gotta tell her.

842
01:02:17,880 --> 01:02:19,230
I'm here if you wanna talk.

843
01:02:20,250 --> 01:02:21,083
- All right.

844
01:02:28,770 --> 01:02:29,603
Brooks.

845
01:02:31,020 --> 01:02:32,388
- [Carla] Avery.

846
01:02:32,430 --> 01:02:34,980
I need you to stop by my
house when you leave work.

847
01:02:36,090 --> 01:02:37,398
- Why?

848
01:02:37,440 --> 01:02:38,748
Aren't you at our house?

849
01:02:38,790 --> 01:02:40,413
- Mrs. Brooks fired me.

850
01:02:41,820 --> 01:02:43,248
- She did what?

851
01:02:43,290 --> 01:02:44,538
- You heard me.

852
01:02:44,580 --> 01:02:46,713
I gathered all my things and I left.

853
01:02:48,130 --> 01:02:49,378
- I'll talk to her.

854
01:02:49,420 --> 01:02:53,418
- [Carla] No. Maybe this is for the best.

855
01:02:53,460 --> 01:02:55,279
- I'll come by after work.

856
01:02:55,321 --> 01:02:56,571
- [Carla] Okay.

857
01:03:03,800 --> 01:03:06,467
(ominous music)

858
01:03:17,190 --> 01:03:19,038
- When did you take the test?

859
01:03:19,080 --> 01:03:19,913
- This morning.

860
01:03:22,710 --> 01:03:23,810
What are you gonna do?

861
01:03:24,960 --> 01:03:25,830
- What you mean?

862
01:03:27,287 --> 01:03:28,998
- You're keeping it?

863
01:03:29,040 --> 01:03:30,513
- Yes, I'm keeping it.

864
01:03:31,410 --> 01:03:32,868
- Carla.

865
01:03:32,910 --> 01:03:33,743
No.

866
01:03:36,210 --> 01:03:37,698
This will destroy Maria.

867
01:03:37,740 --> 01:03:38,808
- You should have thought about that

868
01:03:38,850 --> 01:03:40,248
before you slept with me, Avery.

869
01:03:40,290 --> 01:03:41,631
- It was a mistake.

870
01:03:41,673 --> 01:03:43,518
(Carla chuckles)

871
01:03:43,560 --> 01:03:45,438
- You know what the old folks used to say?

872
01:03:45,480 --> 01:03:47,441
Mistakes equal consequences.

873
01:03:47,483 --> 01:03:48,372
- No.

874
01:03:48,414 --> 01:03:49,205
No.

875
01:03:49,247 --> 01:03:51,738
No, you got to get rid of it.

876
01:03:51,780 --> 01:03:52,923
- No, I'm not.

877
01:03:54,570 --> 01:03:56,058
I'm keeping it.

878
01:03:56,100 --> 01:03:58,008
So when our child gets older,

879
01:03:58,050 --> 01:03:59,268
you could look them right in their eyes

880
01:03:59,310 --> 01:04:01,253
and tell 'em that you didn't want them.

881
01:04:02,790 --> 01:04:04,008
- Carla.

882
01:04:04,050 --> 01:04:05,973
You already know that Maria's sick.

883
01:04:08,160 --> 01:04:09,810
I don't want to hurt her anymore.

884
01:04:12,210 --> 01:04:13,510
- We've already done that.

885
01:04:17,131 --> 01:04:22,131
(phone buzzing) (ominous music continues)

886
01:04:25,800 --> 01:04:26,633
- Hello?

887
01:04:31,080 --> 01:04:31,913
I'm on the way.

888
01:04:37,140 --> 01:04:37,973
I gotta go.

889
01:04:39,810 --> 01:04:41,618
Something's wrong with the doll.

890
01:04:41,660 --> 01:04:44,327
(Carla scoffs)

891
01:04:44,369 --> 01:04:45,536
Please, Carla.

892
01:04:46,727 --> 01:04:48,560
Just think about this.

893
01:04:50,579 --> 01:04:52,829
- You can let yourself out.

894
01:05:06,956 --> 01:05:09,373
(Maria sobs)

895
01:05:13,922 --> 01:05:17,422
(ominous music continues)

896
01:05:33,287 --> 01:05:34,120
- Baby.

897
01:05:36,236 --> 01:05:37,824
Baby, what's wrong?

898
01:05:37,866 --> 01:05:41,334
- She did something to
her, I can't find Libby. (sobs)

899
01:05:41,376 --> 01:05:42,167
- Who did something?

900
01:05:42,209 --> 01:05:43,607
- Go.

901
01:05:43,649 --> 01:05:48,188
- I can't find my Libby.

902
01:05:48,230 --> 01:05:52,425
She took my baby. (sobs)

903
01:05:52,467 --> 01:05:53,975
She took my baby.

904
01:05:54,017 --> 01:05:57,517
(music turns sentimental)

905
01:06:04,654 --> 01:06:06,442
She took my baby.

906
01:06:06,484 --> 01:06:07,484
- It's okay.

907
01:06:09,453 --> 01:06:11,563
(music turns ominous)

908
01:06:11,605 --> 01:06:14,022
(Maria sobs)

909
01:06:38,065 --> 01:06:41,565
(music turns sentimental)

910
01:07:06,594 --> 01:07:09,011
(Maria sobs)

911
01:07:15,905 --> 01:07:18,655
(trunk opening)

912
01:07:34,606 --> 01:07:38,439
(sentimental music continues)

913
01:07:42,892 --> 01:07:45,642
(trunk slamming)

914
01:07:54,142 --> 01:07:56,892
(engine revving)

915
01:08:02,392 --> 01:08:05,059
(ominous music)

916
01:08:16,029 --> 01:08:17,529
- What did you do?

917
01:08:18,960 --> 01:08:21,888
- I'm sorry? I don't understand.

918
01:08:21,930 --> 01:08:24,733
- This doll is destroying my family.

919
01:08:24,775 --> 01:08:25,566
(ominous music turns tense)

920
01:08:25,608 --> 01:08:29,298
- Mr. Brooks. The doll is
not destroying your family.

921
01:08:29,340 --> 01:08:30,273
You are.

922
01:08:31,530 --> 01:08:32,480
- What do you mean?

923
01:08:33,324 --> 01:08:36,198
(sighs) You said this doll
was gonna help my wife.

924
01:08:36,240 --> 01:08:38,140
It has done nothing but cause trouble.

925
01:08:39,180 --> 01:08:40,023
- Explain.

926
01:08:41,790 --> 01:08:44,298
- She thinks the doll is real.

927
01:08:44,340 --> 01:08:45,948
- No, she doesn't.

928
01:08:45,990 --> 01:08:48,843
She is only responding
to what you gave her.

929
01:08:49,710 --> 01:08:50,748
You bought the doll

930
01:08:50,790 --> 01:08:53,478
in hopes that it would
heal her broken heart.

931
01:08:53,520 --> 01:08:54,420
It did, didn't it?

932
01:08:56,400 --> 01:08:58,818
- You said that it would heal her.

933
01:08:58,860 --> 01:09:02,118
- I did, that's what I
said, that's what it's doing.

934
01:09:02,160 --> 01:09:04,308
Maria is healing.

935
01:09:04,350 --> 01:09:07,338
She knows the doll is not her daughter.

936
01:09:07,380 --> 01:09:09,459
It's only comforting her

937
01:09:09,501 --> 01:09:12,588
of what could have been
with her own daughter.

938
01:09:12,630 --> 01:09:17,343
Let it run its course,
or you will be sorry.

939
01:09:18,960 --> 01:09:22,368
- I've had enough. Take
it back, I want a refund.

940
01:09:22,410 --> 01:09:24,408
- [Mrs. Sekans] Sorry, Mr. Brooks.

941
01:09:24,450 --> 01:09:27,633
No exchanges or refunds.

942
01:09:28,987 --> 01:09:31,833
- (sighs) Then just take it back.

943
01:09:33,780 --> 01:09:36,603
My peace is payment enough.

944
01:09:37,845 --> 01:09:39,653
I don't want anything to do with this doll.

945
01:09:47,946 --> 01:09:51,863
(tense ominous music subsides)

946
01:09:55,508 --> 01:09:58,091
(gentle music)

947
01:10:14,967 --> 01:10:15,800
You okay?

948
01:10:16,948 --> 01:10:18,365
- Yeah. I'm fine.

949
01:10:24,120 --> 01:10:24,953
- Baby.

950
01:10:26,970 --> 01:10:28,657
I know that the doll is gone.

951
01:10:31,620 --> 01:10:33,963
But can we start over and begin fresh?

952
01:10:34,977 --> 01:10:36,477
Get you healing the right way?

953
01:10:37,770 --> 01:10:38,603
- Yes.

954
01:10:42,240 --> 01:10:43,793
- You're feeling a little better.

955
01:10:45,330 --> 01:10:48,330
At first I wasn't able to talk
to you. Before the doll came.

956
01:10:50,310 --> 01:10:52,533
- Libby, Avery.

957
01:10:53,490 --> 01:10:54,323
- Yes.

958
01:10:55,350 --> 01:10:56,183
Libby.

959
01:10:58,020 --> 01:10:59,893
- She meant a lot to me.

960
01:11:01,216 --> 01:11:05,707
And she was helping fill
the void after Eliza passed.

961
01:11:05,749 --> 01:11:09,918
(gentle music continues)

962
01:11:09,960 --> 01:11:12,768
I thought that she would
help fill those wounds,

963
01:11:12,810 --> 01:11:15,093
but she didn't.

964
01:11:17,280 --> 01:11:20,133
I'll admit that, for a second,

965
01:11:21,660 --> 01:11:23,133
she felt real.

966
01:11:25,260 --> 01:11:28,968
But nothing can ever replace the true love

967
01:11:29,010 --> 01:11:30,983
that you feel for your own child.

968
01:11:33,600 --> 01:11:34,433
- Baby.

969
01:11:35,490 --> 01:11:36,663
Let's start fresh.

970
01:11:38,790 --> 01:11:40,833
I'll be here for you like never before.

971
01:11:42,960 --> 01:11:47,043
We can heal together
the way that God intended.

972
01:11:48,720 --> 01:11:49,553
- Okay.

973
01:11:50,870 --> 01:11:51,703
- But baby,

974
01:11:53,430 --> 01:11:55,853
there's something I have to
tell you before we start over.

975
01:11:57,632 --> 01:11:58,715
- What is it?

976
01:12:02,160 --> 01:12:03,110
- I made a mistake.

977
01:12:05,400 --> 01:12:07,067
- What did you do, Avery?

978
01:12:11,593 --> 01:12:13,263
- I had an affair with Carla.

979
01:12:16,590 --> 01:12:17,451
- I know.

980
01:12:17,493 --> 01:12:20,826
(gentle music subsides)

981
01:12:21,660 --> 01:12:26,660
I knew that one day you would
be touched by another woman.

982
01:12:28,680 --> 01:12:30,603
It's my fault.

983
01:12:32,280 --> 01:12:34,728
I was so consumed with grief

984
01:12:34,770 --> 01:12:38,088
that I neglected to realize the love

985
01:12:38,130 --> 01:12:40,053
that still surrounded me.

986
01:12:43,719 --> 01:12:45,273
- (sighs) Baby.

987
01:12:47,400 --> 01:12:48,233
There's more.

988
01:12:51,630 --> 01:12:53,088
She's pregnant.

989
01:12:53,130 --> 01:12:53,963
- What?

990
01:12:57,180 --> 01:12:59,913
- She's pregnant. I just found out today.

991
01:13:04,890 --> 01:13:09,890
- So I guess that means
you'll leave me for her,

992
01:13:10,260 --> 01:13:13,788
since she's able to give
you something that I can't.

993
01:13:13,830 --> 01:13:15,573
- What? No, no.

994
01:13:16,470 --> 01:13:19,308
We would just co-parent. But that's it.

995
01:13:19,350 --> 01:13:22,233
You're my wife, and I love you.

996
01:13:23,850 --> 01:13:26,658
That was a mistake that
shouldn't have happened.

997
01:13:26,700 --> 01:13:28,878
I'm so, so sorry.

998
01:13:28,920 --> 01:13:30,828
- I think I need to go lay down.

999
01:13:30,870 --> 01:13:32,538
Let me go.

1000
01:13:32,580 --> 01:13:33,413
I got it.

1001
01:13:37,164 --> 01:13:39,664
(Avery sighs)

1002
01:13:47,940 --> 01:13:49,308
- So tell me, Avery,

1003
01:13:49,350 --> 01:13:51,953
what was so important that
you had to see me a week early?

1004
01:13:54,328 --> 01:13:56,778
(ominous dramatic music)

1005
01:13:56,820 --> 01:13:57,963
- I had an affair.

1006
01:14:00,916 --> 01:14:02,418
(Avery sighs)

1007
01:14:02,460 --> 01:14:03,783
- At a time like this,

1008
01:14:04,920 --> 01:14:07,320
why would you risk you
and Maria's relationship?

1009
01:14:08,646 --> 01:14:10,234
- I know.

1010
01:14:10,276 --> 01:14:11,109
I know.

1011
01:14:12,017 --> 01:14:12,850
I know.

1012
01:14:14,368 --> 01:14:18,118
- (sighs) Who was the woman?

1013
01:14:23,760 --> 01:14:26,210
- You know the agency that
you recommended me to?

1014
01:14:27,090 --> 01:14:27,923
- Mm-hmm.

1015
01:14:33,161 --> 01:14:35,208
- It was the nurse Carla.

1016
01:14:35,250 --> 01:14:37,000
- You had an affair with the nurse?

1017
01:14:38,514 --> 01:14:39,633
(sighs) Oh boy.

1018
01:14:40,560 --> 01:14:41,433
That's not good.

1019
01:14:43,260 --> 01:14:44,643
Does Maria know about this?

1020
01:14:46,451 --> 01:14:47,493
- (sighs) Yes.

1021
01:14:49,020 --> 01:14:49,853
She does.

1022
01:14:53,310 --> 01:14:54,903
I told her about it last night.

1023
01:14:58,830 --> 01:14:59,930
- How did she take it?

1024
01:15:03,090 --> 01:15:04,653
- Actually very well.

1025
01:15:10,170 --> 01:15:14,253
Until I told her the second part.

1026
01:15:16,740 --> 01:15:17,640
- And what's that?

1027
01:15:18,588 --> 01:15:22,838
(ominous dramatic music continues)

1028
01:15:30,058 --> 01:15:32,376
- Carla's pregnant.

1029
01:15:32,418 --> 01:15:35,251
(therapist sighs)

1030
01:15:38,820 --> 01:15:41,178
- You're having a baby by your mistress?

1031
01:15:41,220 --> 01:15:42,813
- She's not a mistress.

1032
01:15:45,270 --> 01:15:46,870
She went with me to the banquet.

1033
01:15:48,870 --> 01:15:50,433
We had a couple drinks.

1034
01:15:52,455 --> 01:15:55,638
(Avery sighs)

1035
01:15:55,680 --> 01:15:58,653
It was a one-time thing.
And now she's pregnant.

1036
01:16:02,880 --> 01:16:03,843
- And let me guess.

1037
01:16:05,220 --> 01:16:06,093
She's keeping it?

1038
01:16:08,100 --> 01:16:09,033
- Of course.

1039
01:16:10,140 --> 01:16:10,990
Why wouldn't she?

1040
01:16:15,780 --> 01:16:17,380
- What did Maria say about this?

1041
01:16:23,640 --> 01:16:25,923
- She said that she was going to lay down.

1042
01:16:27,360 --> 01:16:28,360
- How did she do it?

1043
01:16:32,760 --> 01:16:34,411
- What do you mean?

1044
01:16:34,453 --> 01:16:37,353
- Did she do it swiftly? Abrasive?

1045
01:16:38,970 --> 01:16:39,963
- Very calm.

1046
01:16:42,690 --> 01:16:43,523
- Huh?

1047
01:16:45,455 --> 01:16:46,288
Hmm.

1048
01:16:48,450 --> 01:16:50,070
- What do you mean by "hmm-hmm"?

1049
01:16:55,516 --> 01:16:56,516
- That means

1050
01:16:57,947 --> 01:16:58,960
you just awakened

1051
01:17:01,616 --> 01:17:03,033
a tragic villain.

1052
01:17:07,080 --> 01:17:08,733
- Tragic villain,

1053
01:17:10,140 --> 01:17:11,013
what do you mean?

1054
01:17:15,750 --> 01:17:20,750
- A tragic villain is someone
who becomes the enemy

1055
01:17:23,010 --> 01:17:28,010
through personal laws,
trauma, flawed choices.

1056
01:17:31,290 --> 01:17:33,768
Making their wrongdoings understandable,

1057
01:17:33,810 --> 01:17:36,723
even sympathetic, despite
the harm that they cause.

1058
01:17:40,080 --> 01:17:42,180
- What does that have to do with anything?

1059
01:17:43,440 --> 01:17:44,890
- Let me paint you a picture.

1060
01:17:48,827 --> 01:17:53,027
You told your wife that you
had an affair with her nurse.

1061
01:17:55,530 --> 01:18:00,530
Then you told your wife that
you're having a baby by her.

1062
01:18:02,160 --> 01:18:03,963
That puts salt in your wife's wound,

1063
01:18:05,280 --> 01:18:09,213
because the baby that she
buried for you is deceased.

1064
01:18:11,340 --> 01:18:13,683
Don't you think that awakened the beast?

1065
01:18:20,670 --> 01:18:22,323
- Maria isn't like that.

1066
01:18:23,580 --> 01:18:25,906
- This could get bad, Avery.

1067
01:18:25,948 --> 01:18:26,998
You have to trust me.

1068
01:18:33,028 --> 01:18:34,445
- I know my wife.

1069
01:18:36,660 --> 01:18:37,863
She's not gonna hurt me.

1070
01:18:38,910 --> 01:18:39,813
Nor herself.

1071
01:18:41,820 --> 01:18:42,653
- All right.

1072
01:18:44,220 --> 01:18:45,370
Call me if you need me.

1073
01:18:46,680 --> 01:18:47,513
- Of course.

1074
01:18:53,086 --> 01:18:56,169
(gentle sober music)

1075
01:18:58,020 --> 01:19:00,470
- Do you have something
you want to tell me?

1076
01:19:01,648 --> 01:19:02,481
- No.

1077
01:19:04,557 --> 01:19:06,171
- Are you sure?

1078
01:19:06,213 --> 01:19:07,143
- Yes, ma'am.

1079
01:19:14,850 --> 01:19:16,503
- Carla, you are lying.

1080
01:19:18,477 --> 01:19:20,394
And I know you're lying

1081
01:19:22,230 --> 01:19:25,714
because I just got a call from Dr. Cannon.

1082
01:19:25,756 --> 01:19:26,898
(music turns suspenseful)

1083
01:19:26,940 --> 01:19:28,323
- Okay, and so what?

1084
01:19:34,470 --> 01:19:35,303
- Okay.

1085
01:19:36,480 --> 01:19:38,230
I'm not gonna beat around the bush.

1086
01:19:39,630 --> 01:19:42,783
Did you have an affair with Mr. Brooks?

1087
01:19:46,500 --> 01:19:47,523
Did you?

1088
01:19:50,340 --> 01:19:51,173
- Yes.

1089
01:19:55,410 --> 01:19:59,538
- You have been with me for 10 years.

1090
01:19:59,580 --> 01:20:01,548
You're one of the best.

1091
01:20:01,590 --> 01:20:04,413
And you know what the contract states.

1092
01:20:05,370 --> 01:20:08,403
No sexual relations with the clients.

1093
01:20:10,191 --> 01:20:12,916
(Ms. Ryder sighs)

1094
01:20:12,958 --> 01:20:13,749
(suspenseful music turns tense)

1095
01:20:13,791 --> 01:20:15,798
I have no choice but to let you go.

1096
01:20:15,840 --> 01:20:19,248
- Ms. Ryder, no, I need this job.

1097
01:20:19,290 --> 01:20:21,918
Well, you should have thought of that

1098
01:20:21,960 --> 01:20:25,128
before you slept with Mr. Brooks.

1099
01:20:25,170 --> 01:20:28,653
You have jeopardized the entire company.

1100
01:20:29,910 --> 01:20:33,048
Ms. Brooks may very well sue us.

1101
01:20:33,090 --> 01:20:34,548
- Please.

1102
01:20:34,590 --> 01:20:35,673
I can fix this.

1103
01:20:39,120 --> 01:20:41,118
- You can fix this?

1104
01:20:41,160 --> 01:20:43,653
I don't see how you can fix this.

1105
01:20:45,990 --> 01:20:48,453
How are you going to smooth it over?

1106
01:20:52,260 --> 01:20:56,673
I have an obligation
to protect this company.

1107
01:20:58,410 --> 01:20:59,823
I have no choice.

1108
01:21:00,690 --> 01:21:03,877
You're dismissed, you can
clean your locker on the way out.

1109
01:21:13,877 --> 01:21:16,710
(Ms. Ryder sighs)

1110
01:21:21,780 --> 01:21:23,838
- [Rissa] Girl, you
shouldn't have got caught.

1111
01:21:23,880 --> 01:21:24,813
- Get caught?

1112
01:21:26,220 --> 01:21:28,653
That ain't even the
half of it, I'm pregnant.

1113
01:21:29,970 --> 01:21:31,203
- Oh my God.

1114
01:21:32,280 --> 01:21:34,248
Girl, you should have got a plan B.

1115
01:21:34,290 --> 01:21:35,433
- I'm not gonna that.

1116
01:21:37,080 --> 01:21:40,308
We did what we did. This baby coming.

1117
01:21:40,350 --> 01:21:41,868
- Girl, what you gonna do?

1118
01:21:41,910 --> 01:21:45,378
I understand he's gonna
be your rich baby daddy.

1119
01:21:45,420 --> 01:21:47,028
But at the end of the
day, what you gonna be?

1120
01:21:47,070 --> 01:21:49,368
His mistress for the rest of your life?

1121
01:21:49,410 --> 01:21:50,808
- I'm not a mistress.

1122
01:21:50,850 --> 01:21:53,400
It only happened once,
it's not gonna happen again.

1123
01:21:54,870 --> 01:21:56,388
- Was it good?

1124
01:21:56,430 --> 01:21:58,578
- [Carla] This is serious, Rissa.

1125
01:21:58,620 --> 01:22:00,213
- I am serious. Was it good?

1126
01:22:01,187 --> 01:22:03,078
- (chuckles) Yes.

1127
01:22:03,120 --> 01:22:05,358
But that's besides the point.

1128
01:22:05,400 --> 01:22:07,188
I lost my job today.

1129
01:22:07,230 --> 01:22:09,580
- Girl, both of us didn't
want that job no way.

1130
01:22:10,590 --> 01:22:12,468
- I don't have no money coming in,

1131
01:22:12,510 --> 01:22:14,568
I don't know what I'm gonna do.

1132
01:22:14,610 --> 01:22:16,623
- Well, there's always McDonald's.

1133
01:22:18,750 --> 01:22:20,418
- You don't take nothing serious.

1134
01:22:20,460 --> 01:22:22,113
- Okay, (chuckles) okay.

1135
01:22:23,310 --> 01:22:25,968
Listen, you know I got coins in the bank.

1136
01:22:26,010 --> 01:22:28,060
If you need anything, you know I got you.

1137
01:22:29,131 --> 01:22:32,058
- (sighs) My mama would
be turning over in her grave

1138
01:22:32,100 --> 01:22:33,903
if she know what I done did.

1139
01:22:34,890 --> 01:22:39,048
- Everybody makes mistakes.
You just gotta learn from 'em.

1140
01:22:39,090 --> 01:22:43,608
Now, you said the problem
is that his wife is crazy.

1141
01:22:43,650 --> 01:22:46,044
Now, that's gonna be your problem.

1142
01:22:46,086 --> 01:22:48,618
(Carla sniffles)

1143
01:22:48,660 --> 01:22:49,774
- Mm.

1144
01:22:49,816 --> 01:22:50,649
Mm-mm.

1145
01:22:53,378 --> 01:22:56,711
(tranquil upbeat music)

1146
01:23:22,218 --> 01:23:26,385
(tranquil upbeat music continues)

1147
01:23:56,694 --> 01:24:00,777
(tranquil upbeat music subsides)

1148
01:24:21,552 --> 01:24:22,343
- Hey baby.

1149
01:24:22,385 --> 01:24:23,218
- Hello.

1150
01:24:24,731 --> 01:24:26,241
Good?

1151
01:24:26,283 --> 01:24:28,700
- Yeah, that's very good. Mm.

1152
01:24:30,412 --> 01:24:32,838
Thanks for letting Carla
and the baby come by.

1153
01:24:32,880 --> 01:24:34,218
- Of course.

1154
01:24:34,260 --> 01:24:36,018
They're our family now.

1155
01:24:36,060 --> 01:24:38,073
And I love them.

1156
01:24:40,380 --> 01:24:43,128
- And, why you cook cake?

1157
01:24:43,170 --> 01:24:46,638
- Well, Avery Junior's
turning three months,

1158
01:24:46,680 --> 01:24:50,673
so I thought we could all
celebrate together, as a family.

1159
01:24:52,906 --> 01:24:54,415
(doorbell ringing)

1160
01:24:54,457 --> 01:24:55,407
- That must be her.

1161
01:25:10,920 --> 01:25:12,123
- Come in, you two.

1162
01:25:15,630 --> 01:25:16,773
Can I hold him?

1163
01:25:19,170 --> 01:25:20,003
- Yeah.

1164
01:25:25,890 --> 01:25:29,238
So Maria, I see you're
back to baking again.

1165
01:25:29,280 --> 01:25:30,703
- [Maria] Yes, I am.

1166
01:25:31,797 --> 01:25:33,348
- [Avery] And she baked
something for Avery Junior

1167
01:25:33,390 --> 01:25:35,040
celebrating turning three months.

1168
01:25:36,300 --> 01:25:38,238
- Oh, sweet.

1169
01:25:38,280 --> 01:25:43,188
- I cut us all a slice for
us to eat at the same time.

1170
01:25:43,230 --> 01:25:47,043
Avery Junior is a miracle
baby. Don't you think so, Carla?

1171
01:25:48,480 --> 01:25:51,858
- Yeah, I don't have a sweet tooth today.

1172
01:25:51,900 --> 01:25:54,228
- It's not about having
a sweet tooth, silly.

1173
01:25:54,270 --> 01:25:56,523
It's about celebrating together.

1174
01:25:57,850 --> 01:25:59,548
- Yeah. What you say, Carla?

1175
01:25:59,590 --> 01:26:01,203
After she's been baking all day.

1176
01:26:05,160 --> 01:26:08,088
- So, we're all gonna take three bites

1177
01:26:08,130 --> 01:26:10,323
to celebrate three months.

1178
01:26:14,730 --> 01:26:16,413
- I'll take three small bites.

1179
01:26:30,499 --> 01:26:32,916
(Maria hums)

1180
01:26:40,260 --> 01:26:41,133
Maria.

1181
01:26:42,780 --> 01:26:44,898
I thought you was gonna bite it with us.

1182
01:26:44,940 --> 01:26:48,437
- I will in a second.
I'm holding Avery Junior.

1183
01:26:51,010 --> 01:26:53,427
(Maria hums)

1184
01:26:59,552 --> 01:27:02,135
(Carla heaves)

1185
01:27:03,903 --> 01:27:06,486
(Avery heaves)

1186
01:27:19,455 --> 01:27:22,955
(Maria continues humming)

1187
01:27:25,456 --> 01:27:27,726

(Maria continues humming)

1190
01:27:47,885 --> 01:27:51,552

1191
01:28:17,463 --> 01:28:21,630

I'm over here at the books house.

1201

1204
01:29:24,420 --> 01:29:27,408
