"Previously on "october road"." "I never dreamt I'd be traveling the whole world with a boy who never left the house." "Itas to end." "He's like my brother." "If he's having marital problems," "I should be helping him." "I should not be pickling his wife on the side." "Leslie's my girlfriend." "I will not even take a nap until you and your tired gang are suffering sideways, till nick garrett is gone for another ten years." "Hey,eddie." "It's me." "Just making sure we're still on for 3:00." "maybe he didn't go to the barbecue." "Maybe something came up." "Maybe he just doesn't want to be seen with me." "Janet,don't go there." "You know,my mom broke up with big cat." "So maybe now you and her can get together." "you really thin the kid is yours?" "Peanut allergy-- he's got one." "I need nick." "Where's nick?" "Have you met aubrey?" "don't move." "Don't move." "I think he's breathing." "Stay with me,son." "Oh,no." "How is he?" "Well,uh,they're,um,not sure yet." "what happened exactly?" "I mean,the kid took a spill on hisike." "He went ass over teakettle on his handlebars." "The doctors think there's some kind of internal bleeding from the fall." "Where's hannah?" "She's with sam." "How did this happen?" "I'm not sure,owen." "We were sitting in the house." "We heard tires screeching,ran out, and mrs.Womack saw sam lying in the middle of the road wiped out." "When she drove around the corner, she almost creamed him." "Your father had ronnie call E.M.S. Right away." "Come on,ronnie!" "He wasn't breathing' right." "The paramedics said respiratory distress caused a blackout while he was riding his bike." "Why was he having trouble breathing?" "His peanut allergy." "No way." "for real?" "He must have eaten something with peanuts, but nobody knows what or why... which is crazy,because he's always so super careful about those things." "He used to joke he doesn't even like reading the "peanuts" comic strip because he's afraid it'll make his throat close." "a little sticky monster." "Okay,everybody-- everybody has to try alison's favorite-- macadamia peanut butter cake." "yeah!" "yeah!" "Is he okay?" "He's a dad." "You comfy?" "I like it here... in your arms." "Well,we fit together." "Good proportions." "ergonomically,we work." "It's time for me to feed the starving masses,isn't it?" "Sadly,yes." "well,duty calls." "And you know what they call a pizza without a pizza delivery girl?" "No,what?" "It's nothing but a slab of bread, cheese and red sauce growing cold on the counter near the glowering glare of mr.Onny pippilito,my boss, or as he is also known, the hairiest man in all the world." "I am genuinely crazy about this girl." "Who are you talking to?" "Invisible tom." "Right,well,more about him later,okay?" "Sure." "I mean,it's fine,'cause what would a shut-in be without a few imaginary friends?" "Oh,it's when they start to feel threatened by your presence that we should worry." "I still can't believe a fraternity house moved into your neighborhood." "Did you know that 80% of U.S.Presidents since 1900 were members of a fraternity?" "I think these guys are in danger of bringing down that statistic." "dr." "Benton to radiology." "How is he?" "Uh,well,he just got out of the cat scan... and the bleedingin his belly's getting worse." "They have to operate." "They have to cut open my little boy." "But they said he's gonna be fine,right?" "Hannah?" "No,nick,they didn't say that." "a whole team of doctors,and not one of them ever said he was gonna be fine." " Well,what did they say?" "Did-- - okay,okay,enou talk." "Come on." "Let's go sit down." "You know,I ran out there." "I saw this kid lying in the street." "And it's awful,but I-it got more awful." "I thought this kid lying in the road-- he could be my own flesh and blood." "I know." "If something happens to him,the fact that I missed out on these last ten years... missing out on ten years with your son... nothing easy about that." "October Road Season 01 Episode 05" "oh,excuse me." "Are you in charge of sam daniels?" "I am." "We're headed into surgery now." "Okay." "Is he gonna be okay?" "He's in very good hands." "Sir,um,his allergic reaction" "I think I know what caused it." "It was macadamia peanut butter frosting from my wife's birthday cake." "I think that I accidentally put it up on his face,and-- okay." "Thanks." "I was the sticky monster." "I understand." "You do?" "I do." "Nick?" "We're gonna head out." "Leslie's got some stuff she's gotta do, and I don't think we can be much more help here." "I understand." "Sam will be in my prayers." "Thank you." "So I think I'm gonna hang." "Yeah,I think you should." "Thanks for comingwith me,though." "He'll be okay." "Yeah,I hope so." "I'm mind-kissing you right now." "You are?" "I am." "Between the dean,the dad,your ex, the setting,the circumstances," "I think a mind-kiss is most appropriate." "And gabriel diaz taught his daughter one thing before he up and lt with her piano teacher." "And that was?" "Appropriateness." " I'll come back later... - okay." " If that's okay." " Yeah." "Good luck." "we should do this again sometime." "I would love to." "How about we hit the museum?" "They're showing "lawrence of arabia" in crisp 70-millimeter, and you kind of remind me of peter o'toole." "Yeah." "us chiseled british rapscallions are often confused." "So we can go?" "Oh." "Um..." "I'm sorry." "Just totally spaced." "it's okay." "But have no fear." "I do own the remastered version, never viewed." "We could peel back the cellophane together." "How could a girl say no?" "How you doing?" "I'm chug." "We just moved in across the street." "Great." "Can I help ya?" "You got any sugar?" "We're making a grain alcohol punch." "Really?" "Did you hear that?" "That's fantastic." "It really--it really happens?" "What really happens?" "The neighbor borrowing a cup of sugar." "It'S... never mind." "It's-- um,all right,forget it." "I'll go get you some sugar." "You're the pizzadelivery chick,aren't you?" "Yup." "Nice." "I love pizza." "here you go." "Thanks,dude." "Peace out." "Well,he seems like a nice enough guy." "I hope tomorrow he needs an egg." "you don't have to stay." "I know." "I want to." "Why?" "Sam's my friend." "Sam can't be your friend." "Sam's 10." "I'll stay a little while longer." "How's that?" "Suit yourself." "Arturo tuskanini!" "Who?" "Sam's teddy bear." "Well,it's a walrus with only one eye, but he never sleeps without it." "You want it in bed with him when he wakes up from surgery." "I'll run back to the house and get it." "Thanks,janet." "Hey,I just heard." "H-how's sam?" "Touch and go." " Look,janet,about the barbecue-- - don't,not now." "Sam's in surgery,and hannah wants me to get his 1-eyed teddy walrus." "And in the grand scheme of what's important and what's not, the 1-eyed teddy walrus takes priority over an undercooked explanation for why you blew me off." "Well,let me come with you." "not necessary." "Look,I-I won't slow you down,and... you don't even have to talk to me if you don't want to." "Hell,you could-- you could even put me in the trunk." "I'd like to put you in the trunk and drive the carinto a lake." "Okay,let's go." "hannah?" "Hey,owen." "This is all because of me." "What is?" "Sam's allergic reaction." "I'm the one who caused it." "You?" "Um... at the barbecue,alison's birthday cake." "The macadamia peanut butter frosting." "It got on my fingers, and I played sticky monster." "I wasn't thinking." "Some of it got on sam's cheek." "He must have licked it off." "I should've said something when we got here,I know,but-- hannah!" "I know." "I know." "I know." "I'm so sorry." "Is your son gonna be all right?" "I was here when they brought him in." "He's in intensive care." "As is my wife rose,my wife of 56 years." "56 years?" "The doctors said,uh, she's not in very good shape this time." "Told me to,uh,prepare for the worst." "I'm sorry." "Thank you." "How old is your son?" "My son is 10." "My grandfather taught me when I started drinking coffee to like it without cream or sugar... 'cause you never really can count on there being cream or sugar." "You should go back to the hospital." "What for?" "You should be there." "Nick really needs you." "It's not that kind of a relationship, which is why I guess it was so easy for him to just... get out and go without ever looking back." "You know,robert,it's timesike these that we should just put our anger aside." "I'm not angry." "I admire it." "He's a strong kid." "He's tough." "You're getting a chance at a do-over." "Most people never get a do-over." "Be a shame to squander it." "We used to do this thing when the boys were very young,and I'd,uh... open my arms wide..." "I'd say,"I got hugs for sale."" "And they'd say,"how much?"" "And I'd say..." ""this one's for free, but I'm charging you double for the next."" "And then,um... you'd hug." "We'd hug." "You okay?" "I was the guy who would eat six buckets of fried chicken because eddie said he'd give me $50 if I did it or start a bar fight with a bunch of bikers because one of 'em looked at ikey wrong." "I was that guy." "You could count on me for dumb stuff on the constant." "But then I met you, and we started our family, and that guy went away because the thought of doing anything to jeopardize my family, ruin what we've worked so hard to build-- is horrifying." "Which is why I can't understand why I would do something so stupid." "What I know is that you are an amazing parent and an amazing husband and that nothing you could ever do could compromise the life we have built for ourselves." "Six buckets of fried chicken?" "I was a savage." "You saved me." "what happened?" "unbelievable." "Have you been drinking?" "Yeah,um,this is how I drink." "I pour the beer all over my body." "I find osmosis gives me a better buzz." "You're being sarcastic." "Yes,I am." "Please--please tell me what happened." "I delivered ten pies to the house across the way." "The frat house?" "Yeah." "Yeah,to chug and his friends." "You remember chug,right?" "Well,clearly they were successful with their grain alcohol punch." "But they had little interest in pizza." "They pawed at me." "They tossed me around." "They spray beer all over me." "It was like a rugby match, only I was the ball." "It's a ball in rugby,right?" "It is." "Can you please continue?" "My boob was grabbed." "They howled." "They were howling." "Your boob was grabbed,and they howled?" "!" "I had it under control." "I kicked one of the guys hard in the nuggets, and he howled on top of the howling, and then I ran as fast as I could over here." "Is that blood?" "It's tomato sauce." "Phil,don'T." " What are you" " I will smote them!" "Or smite them... s-smit?" "This is--what-- how do you-- how do you even conjugate that verb?" "!" " Phil,don't be ridiculous." " I will." "I will." "I will." "Phil!" "it's okay,man." "It's not okay." "They're-- they're just stupid kids." "It doesn't matter." "I..." "I've encountered worse." "I can't do it." "Good." "That's good." "I don't want you to." "They're hockey players, so you wouldn't stand a chance." "I can't do it." "'m gonna go home." "I told jenny she'd have to only sit till 11:00." "Okay." "Think I'm gonna stick around here for a little bit, make sure sam's gonna be okay." "I figured you would." "jamie alworth to reception... hey,uh,I'll walk you out,'cause I,uh, I left my phone in my truck." "Thanks,buddy." " All righ bye." " Bye." "It's not in his bedroom." "Well,what--what's it look like?" "What color is it?" "Like a 1-eyed walrus most likely encrusted in dirt and drool." "Please start looking,okay?" "Okay,okay." "Why the panic?" "It's the least I can do for them after what I've caused." "What are you talkin' about?" "If I hadn't actually believed in the possibility of a "we," an "us," a "janet and eddie,"" "then hannah wouldn't have sent sam to the barbecue to find you, and none of this would have happened." "Janet,it's gonna be okay." "I can't even look at you without wanting to break something over your head¡ª something heavy like a bottle or a cement truck." "The thing that kills me,eddie,no fooling, is that I feel like I've lost a friend." "And when you've never been in a relationship, friends are what you cherish." "Well,I... you've never been in a relationship?" "Not now." "Walrus." "Oh!" "Here he is." "Arturo tuskanini!" "Thank god." "Leave it to sam to name a stuffed walrus after the greatest italian conductor of his time." "Yeah." "He's a good egg,sam." "Hannah told me that you come by every now and then... took sam to little league tryouts... and every time a new "star wars" movie comes out, you take him to see it." "I... kid doesn't have a dad,is all." "You know,nick thinks he's sam's dad." "Yeah." "I kinda always thought so,too." "Which is why you come around." "ray." "dr." "Trevor pick up 6922... how is he?" "Um,he's in surgery." " I swear to god,ray,if anything happens to him-- - listen,he'll be fine." "Come on." "He's sam daniels,duke of cool." "He'll be fine." "Excuse me." "I'm just gonna grab some coffee." " You guys need anything?" " Uh,no." " Okay." " Thanks." "you hear about sam?" "Owen just called and told me." "Why are you sittin' in the dark?" "This thing about sam really got you that busted up?" "It's very upsetting... but that's not all." "you scared me." "Well,hospitals can be scary places." "Yeah,made more so when you just sneak up behind a guy." "Can I buy you a drink?" "They got cocoa?" "Yeah." "Probably not very good." "Well,bad cocoa is better than good tea, rose always says." "we've been together for 56 years." "56." "I married her the same day that,uh, marilyn monroe marrd arthur miller." "That was a joke to our friends, because rose was beautiful,and I was,uh... me." "even had the,uh,arthur miller spectacles." "Which I always thought was a better word than glasses." "Like everything you look at through them is A... spectacle." "And she was... my rose." "When I first met her, I wasn't sure she liked me." "My father said, "you know that rose down at the bakery-- she sure is sweet on you."" "I said,"how do you know?"" "He said,"well,every time you walk out of the room, her eyes turn gray." ""And when you return,they turn blue again."" "I said,"that's possible."" "He said,"how do you know,smart guy? "" "You ever seen the color of her eyes when you're not in the room?" "Look,I'd like to stay." "Well,it's gonna be a long night, and janet's coming back, and my parents are driving in from the cape." "Ray,there's reallynothing to do here but wait." "And of course you've got garrett,so... he's leaving." "He's just" "I--I'm sorry,uh, I said I wasn't gonna bring it up." ""Don't bring it up," and then what do I do, not even six minutes in?" "You bring it up." "Yeah." "Call me if you need me." "Okay." "I'm praying for the duke of cool." "is sam gonna be all right?" "I don't know." "Watching owen in there... all torn up..." "I wanted to die." "I did,too." "There's too much that can be lost if we don't stop." "So good-bye,and thank you." " there you are." " Hey." "*******" "I was...what goes on?" "Just got off the phone with eddie." "Physical phil's in a bad way." "We gotta get over there." "What's wrong with that nusk?" "Batteries run out on his remote?" "Oliver stone got the flu?" "No,this isn't funny." "We're in hard-core "honor amongst men" territory here." "Great." "My specialty." "This is where he was born." "Sam?" "Was his father here when he was born?" "No,he wasn'T." "What goes on with this gavin goddard guy?" "Please,let's not talk about him right now." "can I ask you a question?" "Sure." "Did you ever miss me?" "Hannah,of course I missed you." "I didn't understand." "How could I?" "I mean,it was so..." ""how could he not come home... come back... to me?"" "Because all I thought about that whole summer... was seeing you again." "You don't know how many times I wanted to call, how many times I reached for the phone, but... freshman year, when I broke my ankle skating, you and eddie made me those crutches made out of hockey sticks and duct tape." "I loved those crutes." "You guys wrote the lyrics of every soundgarden song ever written all over them." "and long after my ankle healed, sometimes when my parents and billy were out," "I would walk on those crutches." "Like way beyond after I needed them," "I would just walk on them just because you made them for me." "And I really,really, really loved leaning on them." "So,phil,so did they-- did they touch her?" "They touched,and they shook, and they howled." "Wait,you didn't say anything about "shook."" "Those animals." "Well,we're working on the payback right now." "Phys is on their D.W.P." "Page trying to get the heat shut off." "It's not too bad, considering the cold front coming in." "When I think of the names they must have called her,awful names¡ª wait,wait." "They called her names?" "Who are they?" "They don't have the right to even have names." "All right,owen,chill." "No,ikey,I will not." "You know what?" "I'm taking away their names." "I'll knock their names right off their faces." "I will own their names!" "Their names will be mine!" "Stop him." "Owen!" "Owen!" "Here,just go ahead." "Bet that,baby." "Chug's all in." "There you go." "Here." "There you go." "Yeah," "I'll...prepare for the ouch,boys!" " who are you?" " Prepare for the ouch!" "owen,chill!" "Owen,stand down!" "you want this?" "Do you want this?" "Are you the police?" "I am the police of your soul, and you are under arrest,mister!" "You... should... not... be... rude... to... women... who... bring... you... food!" " They're children,dude!" " What?" "Look at 'em." "They're kids!" "The kid in the corner just crapped his rubber pants the moment you walked in here,man!" " But what they did-- - yeah,it ain't right,bro." "Don't we have enough regrets tonight?" "He's right,O." "Let's go." "Fine." "My little buddy got himself a conscience." "You guys get a hall pass." "But don't take it lightly." "You were spared." "But if you ever engage in that type of disrespect towards women again,we will be back, and that next time will make this time look like the good old days." "come on." "Mr. Bolivar, is there any word on your wife?" "She's still with me." "That's all I can hope for." "Ms. Daniels?" "Your son is out of surgery." "We found the splenic source of his injury and tied it off." "Barring a potential rebleed, he should do just fine." "Well,can I see him?" "Well,he's still in recovery." "He's--he's sleeping" "I'm sorry." "It's immediate family only." "what is it?" "If I keep holding out  will the light shine through?" "Under this broken roof  it's only rain that I feel" "I've been wishing out the days all alone  come back" "I have been planning out  all that I'd say to you  since you slipped away" "know that I still remain true" "I've been wishing out the days please say... any news on the boy?" "They just went down to check on him." ""They"?" "The parents-- nick and,uh,hannah." "Oh,yeah." "Nick and hannah." "It's been a hard night for those two." "But they love each other." "It's clear as day... and I've lived many days." "and in the night" "I've been waitin' for... my sweet boy." "you are so beautiful." "Do you know that?" "Even like this... attached to things that boys your age shouldn't be attached to." "You're still beautiful." "thank you for being so sweet and so kind... and for being my besfriend in the world." "no one makes me laugh like you... and you love to do it when I have a mouthful of soda,don't you?" "So that root beer comes shooting out of my nose." "I need you,buddy." "I need you,and I love you... and I miss you, and I can't wait to talk to you again." "And the days, they linger on" "and every night what I'm waiting for" "is the real possibility  that I may meet you in my dream... hey,dad,it's me." "Um,sam's out of surgery." "Looks like he's gonna be all right." "Hannah is with him now." "Um,I just... just wanted to tell you." "Okay?" "Bye." "mr." "Bolivar finally leave?" "Uh,no,he just went to the bathroom,I think." "bad news about his wife?" "What do you mean?" "I mean,is she okay?" "Rose bolivar died six days ago." "She did?" "She did." "That poor man hasn't left this hospital since." "How's the boy holding up?" "He's still sleeping." "Mr. Bolivar,I..." "I don't mean to be inappropriate, but,um... well,the nurse... she told me about rose." "She told you about rose?" "Yeah." "I know it's--it's hard... and I'm so sorry for your loss,but... you should go home." "I'm sure that there's somebody who can pick you up." "I thought I would be with her forever." "Everything we did,we did together." "We arrived at this hospital together." "If I pass through those doors out into there, it would be the first time I've seen the world without rose at my side," "and that's not a world that I want to be a part of-- a world where it's me without rose." "So I'll sit here... in the place that rose and I last knew... together." "a mideast peace summit... hi." "You sent your friends?" "What?" "No,I didn't" " I didn'T... no,here's the thing" " I don't like fights,okay?" "Fights are gross,particularly the ones you send your friends to go and fight for you¡ª extra particularly the ones that are brought to my boss' attention, even though I already told you I had this handled!" "Okay,they got fired up,all right?" "I couldn't stop them." "It's sad,you know?" "'Cause I really like you, and the fact that you don't leave the house- it doesn't bother me a lick..." " okay,please,could you-- - until now, because if you're gonna fight your battles, much less my battles,of your own couch, well,I just don't think that's very darn peter o'toole of you,dude." "All right,wait." "Just wait." "Would you please wait?" "Sorry,phys." "That's our bad." "Did--that's really-- did you" "I don't--I can't believe-- did you--that's amazing." "That astounds." "Did you--that-- she was my-- she was-- she was my--my--my-- possibility." "Yes." "Possibility." "Exactly,man." "Yeah." "I know the feelin'." "We've been living together for five years now." "When are you gonna remember I don't drink?" "Just keep holding out hope for you,pal." "he's awake,and they said he's through the worst of it." "Oh,thanks." "He'll really appreciate that." "Can we see him?" "Yeah,he'd love that." "I'm sorry,but it really is immediate family only." "Sorry." "Go ahead." "Tell him I'll be by later." "Okay." "Thank you for-- go." "Like--okay." "All right,if she needs anything, you call me,all right?" "Absolutely." "Thank you." "Take care,nick." "Well,now that's good news." "Yeah." "Well... what say we?" "Me and you." "Me and you what?" "Shuffle on outta here... a couple of mack daddies walkin' in the sun." "I..." "I can'T." "Sure you can." "It's a new day out there... the great unknown." "I just want to stay here." "Look,it's daunting,I know." "I mean,trust me, nobody knows that more than I do." "But we have to do this,to press on." "that's what I'm talkin' about." "rose-- she loved the morning." "She said every morning was a clean slate, a chance to start things all over again." "I wish I could have met her." "She sounds amazing." "She was more than amazing." "She was rose, and there'll never be another one like her again." "You find that one,nick... the right one..." "It's a gift from god that not everyone is lucky enough to receive." "And you've got to accept that gift, but you've got to accept it now." "That's why it's called "the present."" "Hannah." "No." "Not anymore." "Hannah... she doesn't have3ofeelings for me like that." "You're wrong." "I don't think so." "What would you know,smart guy?" "Have you ever seen the color of her eyes when you're not in the room?" "Good luck,nick." "Enjoy your present." "I'll see you around,mr." "Bolivar." "dad?" "I-I got hugs for sale." "How much?" "This one's free." "The next one I'll be charging double." "it's gonna be all right." "It'll be all right." "that's my telephone." "Who's this?" "hello?" "Owen rowan." "Ray cataldo." "Hey,big cat." "What goes on?" "Me and you should go for a beer sometime." "Something I want to talk to you about... something I think you're gonna find very interesting."
