"A lemon battery." "When you put your tongue on the wire you get zapped like a Taser." "He begged me to do it." "Yeah, it was awesome." "Paige, I'm throwing in a couple of your favorite applesauce cookies." "Make sure you test your blood-sugar level before you have them, okay?" "Here, catch." "Mom, duck." "Tuna." " Since when did you not like tuna?" " Since I read it's got mercury." " But if you want me to eat poison..." " Yep." "That's why I made tuna, Paige." " So that I could poison you." " Whatever." "I'll trade it." "Did you show Grandma your science project?" " Yes." " Yes, she did." "Very impressive." "Not really." "Henry's making an earthquake simulator." "He says he's doing it himself, but his dad's an architect," " so you know he's doing it for him." " I hate that." "I have this afternoon free." "Maybe we could finish yours together." "I can do it myself." " Just let her go to school." " Why don't we call the uncles?" "I mean, if Henry's gonna use his family resources, why don't we take full advantage of ours?" "If I say yes, will you leave me alone, even at the fair?" "Yes, I'll pretend we've never met." "Hey, we're on." " Bye, Grandma." " Bye, sugar pie." "See you." " Bye, Grandma." " Bye, Coop." " Bye!" " I love you!" "Okay." "You won't believe what happened last night..." "Who is that child?" "I don't recognize her." "She's been so obstinate lately." "Downright obnoxious." "Oh, pre-teens." "They're hard." " Anyway, last night..." " No, they call them "tweens" now, Mom." "Tweens." "And if I'm not the most neglectful mother in the world," "I'm the most stifling." "Mothers are never right." "So, Sarah, listen, I need your advice..." "You think this is cosmic payback for me and Kitty for when we were..." "Sarah, for God's sake, will you shut up?" "Simon called." " He left two messages this morning." " You didn't call him back, did you?" " Why, do you think I should?" " No!" "He dropped off the face of the earth for six weeks after you donated to his "charity."" " But he didn't cash the check." " Because you canceled it." " What if he has a legitimate excuse?" " Unless he's been locked up in Gitmo, he had no reason not to pick up the phone and call you." " I'm such a fool." " No, Mom." "You've done nothing wrong, but he's shown you who he is:" "An untrustworthy jerk that doesn't deserve your affections." " You're right." " Good girl." "Why does it take six days to see if an embryo has turned into a blast?" "Yeah, and then we have to wait nine months to see if we made a baby." "You think any of my embryos will make it into a blast?" "Yeah, I'm sure they did." "Some of them." " Your sperm tested better." " Yours tested fine." " Adequate." " Adequate is fine." "This is our file." " Kevin, back away from the desk." " I just wanna peek." " Sorry to keep you waiting." " Oh, that's okay." "We don't mind." "No." "We can't wait to hear the news." " Not that we know what it is, we don't." " Kevin, don't be weird." " Sorry." " Okay, let's see." "Your egg donor produced ten viable eggs, you each fertilized five, and as of this morning, eight of those embryos have progressed to blastocysts." "That's what we wanna see." " Oh, my God." " That's incredible." "Right now, five of the blasts are yours, Kevin." " And three are Scotty's." " I'm sorry." "Are you..." "Five out of five?" " I can double-check the labs." " Not that three isn't great." " Are you okay?" "I mean, are you all right?" " Yeah." "I'm thrilled." "Now, we still need to wait and see how many of these blasts become advanced blasts." "I'll call you in the morning with a progress report." "I can't believe this is actually happening." "I know!" "We're actually gonna be dads." "It's freaking me out." " Don't be weird." " Sorry." "Sorry." " So are you kicking me out?" " Officially you're on academic probation." "But you are going to have to raise your grade point average 2.3 points if you want to remain in the program." "I've seen this happen time after time." "Students struggle with medical school." "Sometimes they even manage to graduate." "And then the boards come up and they're unable to pass the exam." "And a degree without a license is meaningless." "So are you telling me I should drop out, or?" "I just don't wanna see you waste your time." " And if I decide to stay?" " Well, here's your reading list." "Next semester starts in a week." "If you want to stay, I suggest you put that time to good use." "Okay, I, yeah, I'll go to the library right away." "Justin, if you are committed to see this through, you have to step up." "Step up." "Got it." "Fine, I'll have my accountant call you." " Holly?" " Yeah." " You mind if I come in?" " No." "I would like to talk to you about Ryan." "Well, I hope he doesn't want his job back, because I just gave someone else his desk." "No, Ryan resigned because he wanted to." "In fact, I think he's probably relieved that he doesn't work here anymore." "He's not the only one." "So I know that you think that he's responsible for this spill at our storage facility." "No, Saul." "It wasn't a spill." " We lost our entire stock." " He's gone now, Holly." " He can't do any more damage." " But you agree that he did it." "Well, given the amount of hostility and resentment he has towards my family," "I would say yes, it's probable." "But he also donated his bone marrow to Kitty." "Look, what he did for Kitty and for your family is incredible." "But he is part of this current investigation." "I just talked to the insurance adjusters the other day, and they think that they have enough evidence to bring a case against him." "But what if we dropped the investigation?" " What?" " He wants to start over, Holly." "If he's charged with corporate sabotage..." "What do you want from him?" "Are you aware of what you're asking from me?" "They have already proven that this is not an accident." "If we do not help them finish this investigation and we do not act accordingly, we will get no reimbursement for our loss." "So we take a hit." "He's the one responsible for Kitty being well now." "Fine." "Fine?" "What do you want me to say?" "I'm not gonna argue that anything is as important as Kitty's life." "Forget how much Ryan cost this company or anyone else." "It's family first." "It's bad business, but it is the Walker way." " Come on." "Can't you understand that..." " Oh, Saul, please." "I get it." "You want me to let Ryan off the hook just like you wanted me to let Tommy off the hook." "It is nothing new." "I'm done fighting it." "Is that all?" "Yeah." "That's all." "Thank you." "Hi." "Could you connect me to Dennis York, please?" "Who is it?" "It's Simon." "Yes." "Well, just one moment, please." "I'll be right there." "Just..." "I'm on my way." "Just..." "Simon." "What are you doing here?" "I wasn't sure if you were checking your phone messages." "No, I've been checking them." "I've just been very busy." "Oh, I'm sorry if I'm interrupting." "I..." "I thought maybe if I tried my luck in person, you'd give me the chance to explain." "That was a bad idea." " I'll go." " No." "Simon, we should talk." "Please come in." "We'll talk." "Okay." " And?" " That's it." "The light goes on." "That's awesome." "Isn't it, Kevin?" "Well, yeah, yeah." "Yeah, it's awesome." "You know what?" "It's a little hard to see." " Really?" " Yeah, no, I saw it, too." "I just think..." "You know what?" "I think we could amp this up." " Get it?" "Amp it up?" " I know what a pun is." "I just didn't really get a charge out of it." "I like you, Paige Whedon." " So, what should we do to see it better?" " Nothing." "The project is perfect." "Yeah, yes, it is perfect." "But you know what?" "When I walk into a courtroom, I think of two things, okay?" "Facts and presentation." "The fact is the battery works." "Great." "If we could build a bigger battery and turn on something bigger," "I think we would really wow the judges." " Like a radio?" " Yeah, a radio is a good start." " I'm off to Aunt Kitty's." " Mom, do we have a radio?" " A radio?" "Why?" " Do we have one or not?" "Yes." "Yes." "I think there is an one in the attic." "I'll get it." "Thank you." "She won't let me near this project." "What can I say?" "I think I've got the touch." " Have you ever argued with a tween?" " I have." "I live with him." "Says the Miley fan." "It's good practice for you two." "Okay, I'm off." "I'm off!" " Bye." " Bye." "You know, if you're not in the mood, we don't have to do this." "Yeah, no." "Why wouldn't I be in the mood?" "No reason." "Okay, just because you're feeling full of yourself because" " you have five healthy embryos..." " What are you talking about?" "It doesn't mean I'm not happy with my three." "And you should be." "Three's great." "Oh my God, if you could hear yourself right now." " Kevin, it's not..." " I found one." "Okay." "Great." "That's what they call it?" "Really?" ""Bone-break fever"?" " That's its name?" " Yes, and for good reason." "I felt like my entire body was in a vise." "By the time I got over it," "I figured it would be best to explain to you in person." "And that was a bad call." "Just wait a second." "Just go back." "What happened now with the community bank you started?" "As soon as I found out that this guy Carlson was stealing from me," "I flew straight to Guatemala." " I thought you flew straight to Florida." " No, it was..." "There was a layover." "But as it turned out, the president of the bank was also onto him, so when I got to Guatemala City, we just turned him over to the authorities." "And then that's when you went into the jungle?" "Right." "I wanted to check on my projects." "They were all up and running and everything would've been great if it hadn't been for that one mosquito bite." "You don't believe a word I'm saying, do you?" "No, I do." "I do." "I do." "I believe you." "Nora, do you know what worried me the most is that you would think that's what I would do to you." " Try and take your money." " No, I..." "Well, I..." "You know, I have to be honest." "I've been confused." "I've been worried and..." "I don't know." "I started to think it was all a dream, whatever we were." "I'm sorry I put you through this." "Especially when Kitty's going through something much worse." "I wish I could have been here to help." "Well, she's in remission now, and that's all that counts." "I know we can't pick up right where we left off." "I know that." "But can I at least see you again?" "Oh, I just..." "I just need some time." " I understand." " Okay." "I'll wait." "I'm persistent." "I'll wait." "Okay." "So finally in a mood to sell?" "We'll see." "We haven't started negotiating yet." "Holly, my offer is more than fair." "Yeah, if I were only selling a couple of shares." "But you would have a major say in how this company was run, so that has to be figured into the price as well." "It is." "Two hundred and fifty is already over value." "Four hundred a share." "That's..." " You're kidding, right?" " Everyone has a price." "That's mine." " Four hundred?" "That's crazy." " See, I don't think so." "I mean, correct me if I'm wrong, but you have been waiting for this opportunity your whole life." "Ojai Foods was yours, not William Walker's." "Isn't that the way that you see it?" "But he landed you in jail and he took the whole thing for himself." "So I am offering you a chance to get it back and to wield power over his entire family." "Now, Dennis, if revenge is what you're after, then 400 dollars is a steal." "You're really persuasive." "Three-fifty." "And that's final." "It's an offer worth considering." " I'll think about it." " Forty-eight hours and it's off the table." "Understood." "Holly?" "Just out of curiosity, when we last spoke, you had no interest in selling." "What changed your mind?" "The Walkers come with a whole lot of family drama." "I'm getting real tired of it." "See you, Dennis." " Hey." " Hey." "What do you got there?" "Well, my OB says that I need more calcium in my diet." "And since I hate milk..." "Chocolate." "Chocolate chip." "Chocolate chip cookie dough." "Getting a jump on the next semester?" "No, I'm getting a jump on electrons and electrodes." "Sarah asked me and Kev to help Paige with her science project." " You have time for that?" " You implying I don't have time for that?" "Honest answer?" "I'm a little surprised that you're helping Paige when your advisor gave you a reading list a mile long." " Does Sarah know what's going on?" " Does she know I'm failing?" "No." " And she's not gonna find out either." " She'd understand." "There's nothing to understand." "I don't even understand." "Did you tell him about Kitty or that you found out that you're gonna be a new father?" "I did." "And you know what it sounds like?" "It sounds like my dog ate my homework." "He thinks I should drop out." "How could he say that?" "He's your advisor." " Yeah, well, that was his advice." " Well, that's ridiculous." " You're gonna be an amazing doctor." " I don't need the encouraging right now." "I'm past needing a cheerleader." "Maybe he's right." "Maybe I don't have what it takes to finish." " I'm sure that everyone in your class..." " But they're not on probation." "I don't know, all right?" "I'm not making a decision right now." "We need to talk about this." "I can't think about this, all right?" "I'm late." " One point twenty-three watts." " Okay, more lemons, doctor." "Stat!" "Stop calling me doctor." "Why did we pay for these?" "We own a fruit company." "Well, desperate times call for desperate measures." " Okay, how are we doing on this display?" " We are still glittering." " My father would be so proud." " Great." "Make sure you get the corners." "I don't know why I'm so worried about being a dad." " I think I was born to do this." " Whoa." "Look at this thing." "Remember when we used to steal this and take it to the beach?" "Can we forget the "back in the day" speech and concentrate on the dancing hamster?" " No dancing hamster." " What do you mean no dan..." "How could they be out of dancing hamsters?" " That's the key to our success." " A dancing rodent is the key?" "Yeah, make the judges laugh." "That's basic." " Did you check Aisle 7?" " I did and that's what I bought." "Of course you picked a robot." "How butch." "Wait, how is a robot butch?" "Watch." "Turn it on." " Yeah!" " Awesome." " Okay, that's pretty butch." " See?" " A science project is about science." " I beg to differ." "Paige, don't let anyone tell you winning doesn't matter." "It does." "Aren't you gonna tell me, "No it doesn't"?" "If you can't do it, you can't do it, right?" "That's the way the world works." "Wow, medical school is teaching you something." " Yeah, you have no idea." " What your uncles are trying to say is that it's learning that's important." "So what about the disco balls?" "Are we still using them?" "Absolutely." "Our brother Kevin, who did the baking-soda volcano six years in a row?" " Dressed as a wizard, don't forget." " And Justin's there too." "Well, now that's a good idea." "You know, Justin." "Justin who just didn't do his science projects altogether." "Considering how much I helped him at school, he owes me big time." "But I'm just glad that Paige accepts their help because God knows she does not want mine." " Are you all right?" " I'm fine." "I just always keep checking to see if it's swelling." " You're feeling better though, right?" " I am." "It's just a very bad habit." "As a matter of fact, I spoke with Dr. Avadon yesterday who told me that my white blood-cell count?" " Higher than ever." " Unbelievable, Kitty." "How is it having Robert home?" "Oh, well, it's..." "You know, it's really, really nice for me." "He says he's happy." " But you don't think he is happy?" " I just think he misses the campaign." "Well, it would be weird if he didn't miss it." "I mean, it's hard to say goodbye to something you deeply and truly love." "But you do it." "You do it." "You say, "Hasta la vista, baby."" " Stop." " Wait, what are we stopping?" " You're taking him back." " I haven't!" " I haven't made any decisions." " This is a bad mistake." " Fill me in." "What's going on?" " Simon's back." "Oh, my God." "Oh, my God." "You're kidding me." "He had the nerve to show his face?" "That would require bravery." "He just called." " He came to the house, actually." " What?" " You said you weren't gonna see him." " He showed up on my doorstep begging me to just hear him out." "Just because I hear what he has to say does not make me the village idiot." " No." "But believing him does." " Oh, she didn't mean that." " Yes, she did." "Yes, she..." " Yes, I did." "Yes, I did." " I did. 100 percent." " Okay, she meant it, but she meant it out of love and concern." "I'm very protective." "You're too forgiving, Mom." "I'm an adult." "I can take care of my own affairs." "I'm not gonna stop worrying about you." "Look, you know, Sarah, I think that in this case Mom is right." "Well, we're always bitching that she butts into our lives," " so let's just stop butting into hers." " Thank you." "I think." " How about now?" " Nope." " What do you mean, "nope"?" " I mean, we don't have enough volts." "Unless you don't understand the basic concept of how a battery works." "All this science is making me hungry." "Do you wanna help me make something in the kitchen?" " Can I, Uncle Kevin?" " Absolutely." "As long as it doesn't involve fruit." "Are we really out of lemons?" " Paige said the radio was fine." " That's not enough." " It's enough for her." " This is gonna work, okay?" " So don't give up so easily." " You know what?" "Fine." "You do it." " What are you doing?" " Look, I'm done." "You obviously know what it takes to succeed, so just..." "You finish it." "What's going on with you?" "I can't watch you take over Paige's project." "Do you honestly think it helps her?" "Because it doesn't, Kevin." "So what if she wins now?" "Someday she'll be in a place where no one can help her and it's all on her." " And then what?" " Justin, she's in sixth grade." "And so was I. And I might've learned something if you and everybody else in this family didn't do everything for me." "What are you talking about?" "You're in medical school." "Yeah, and I'm failing out." "What?" "I'm on academic probation and they're trying to kick me out." "Oh, God." "All right." " Does Mom know?" " Kevin, I'm a grown man." "They don't send report cards home." "But it doesn't matter because I'm gonna drop out." "I gotta go." "Please tell Paige everything's okay and I'll see her at the science fair." "Pick up." " Sarah, where are you?" " Paige wanted some space." " Why, is everything okay?" " No, it is not." "It's a disaster." "Henry's earthquake simulator is out of control" " and there's no way he made it." " You don't know that." " I do." "Where are you?" " I'm about to leave, but listen, I found out this thing about Simon." " Simon?" "Who's Simon?" "Mom's Simon?" " I Googled him again." "There's this picture of him from some Boca Raton Society page." "He's at a benefit with an older attractive woman on his arm." "Marilyn Weisman." " Maybe he has a thing for older women." " No, but what if he has one in every city?" "Don't you think I should tell Mom?" "You should forget about Simon, think about Henry." " Don't you mean Paige?" " No." "I mean, yeah." " Look, just get down here." " Cooper!" " Okay." " We got it." "Wow, Paige, I gotta say, it looks fantastic." "Yeah, really." " Do you think it's better than Henry's?" " Yeah." " Who's Henry?" "Your nemesis?" " It's more like Kevin's nemesis." "Hi." "Could you wait one second for me?" " Have you seen Kevin?" " Yeah." "I saw him just a second ago." " You want me to find him?" " Tell him it's important." " Yes, doctor, go ahead." " Let's do a few little tweaks here." "Hi." "You interested in earthquakes?" "I'm sure Henry can answer any of your questions." "Actually, yeah." "I do have a couple of questions, Henry." "Paige, look at that!" "It's gigantic." "Oh, my gosh." "I can't believe you did all of this." "Well, Uncle Kevin thought of it and Uncle Justin did the battery work." "Wait until you see the robot start dancing." " Is he gonna dance?" " That's what the disco balls are for." "Oh, yes, of course." "Well, that's obvious." "Terrific work, Justin." "Now, you see, Paige, if you keep working on your science, maybe one day you too will end up in med school." " I wanna be a fashion designer." " That's good too." "I'm gonna go find Rebecca." " Are you okay?" " Yes." "Paige's moment." "Paige's moment." " Okay, so, what does he dance to?" " Disco." "Don't tell me." "That was Kevin's idea?" "And you figured this equation out yourself?" "It wasn't hard." "My manipulated variable is the building's construction material." "My responding variable is how long it takes for the building to collapse." "Right." "How long did it take to build the model?" " A couple days." " A couple of days?" "What's your superpower?" "Architecture?" "Seriously, one dad to another, you built most of this yourself, right?" "I'm sorry, whose father are you?" "That's not relevant." " What's your name?" " Sterling." " Kevin." " Sterling Kevin." "Good luck." "I practically had them disqualified." "I talked to the clinic." " What?" "Really?" " Yeah." " And?" " Well, it's not great." "Only four of ours made it to advanced blasts." " You're kidding." " I'm trying to not get depressed." " I mean, we still have four." " Of course." "Of course." "No, you're absolutely right." "Our baby is our baby." "Did any of yours make it?" "No, actually, the four that didn't make it are yours." "Mine are all good." "I lost four?" "The doctor said there's no rhyme or reason." "I mean, your embryo could end up becoming the one." " Are you okay?" "Because I know that..." " I'm fine." "I'm fine." "Look, I knew we didn't have any control over this, so I should..." "I should get back to Paige." " Do you wanna talk about this..." " No, no, I don't." "I'm fine." "Oh, wow." "Paige." "Didn't this turn out great?" "I love it." "It's so bright and the information is very well laid out." "Coop, what do you think?" " Can I go see the volcano?" " Yeah, sure." " Don't stick your finger in it though, okay?" " What took you so long?" "Well, I got the impression that you kind of wanted some space." " Whatever." " I really can't win with you these days." "Where's Grandma?" "Is she here?" "She went to look at some booths." "Why don't you go and look at some too?" "Yeah, why don't I?" " Is she gone?" " Yeah." "Okay, huddle up." "I've been doing some reconnaissance." " Reconnaissance?" " Sizing up the competition." "Seriously lame." "But you're right about that Henry kid." "So I think we pump up the volume, squeeze in a few more oranges." " Do we have enough time?" " Yeah, but we've gotta get going." " Mom, there you are." " Sarah, Sarah." "Look at this young..." "This young woman has found out that it's better to water plants with water than with soda." "That's a stunning finding." " Mom, can I talk to you, please?" "Listen." " Yes." "I know Simon gave you an explanation, but I found something out about him." "Sarah, what part of "I can handle it" don't you understand, huh?" "Listen, I was just..." "I was looking around online..." "What?" "Are you spying on him again?" "Well, Googling is not spying." "It's social networking." "Anyway, listen, I know that you're fond of him, but I found something out about him that..." "There is nothing about Simon that I don't already know." "God." "What is this guy's power over you?" "Look, now you're insulting me." "He has no power over me." "I know exactly what I'm doing." "This is him here." "I'm gonna take the call." " Fine, I wash my hands off it." " Okay." "Hi." "Be careful." "None of that fruit's glued to those boxes." "What are you doing?" "I already set this up." " We want the robot to dance longer." " Dance longer?" "You have to come see this booth." "It's about the brain and how..." " Kevin, what's your problem?" " I'm not giving up on victory, okay?" " That's not how you look at the world." " Because you're a role model?" " Can you just..." " Not right now." "Watching you like this, I know I made the right decision." " What decision?" " Come on, guys." "What's going on?" " You're supposed to be finished." " The judging is ready to start." " One more and we're there." " You think there's room?" " Yeah." " It's gonna topple." "Would you all just be quiet and let me do this?" "Kevin!" "Kevin!" "Paige, I am so sorry." "Oh, it's all right." "Don't panic." "We'll pick them all up one at a time." " Paige, I promise we'll fix this." " No, it's ruined because you butt in!" "Why can't you just stay out of it and let me do it myself?" "You know what they say:" "Don't cry over spilt fruit." " Sorry." "Unfunny." " Oh, no, it's not that." "It's just this whole citrus debacle is my fault." "Actually, I was watching, and unless you made those lemons fall with your mind, you're in the clear." "No, trust me, she didn't want my help." "She told me again and again, but did I listen?" "No." "I forced her uncles upon her, so now she hates me." "If it makes you feel any better, my daughter forbade me to come within 10 feet of her booth." "Apparently, everything I do is a colossal threat to her precarious social standing." "Sounds like she's been hanging out with Paige." " I don't know if it's the..." " Oh, you're doing it." "You just connect the one to the other, right?" "I think." "I wouldn't worry too much about it." "I don't think it's you." "I mean, I think it's the age." " God help us when they're teenagers." " I know." "I thought my ex would be better equipped to deal with it." "Turns out she fights with Libby more than I do." "Oh, you're divorced." "Me too." "I don't know." "Maybe I should just stay out of everybody's business." " She'll always be your daughter." " Oh, yeah." "The problem is my mother feels the same way." " I can't help you there." " Yeah." "Right." "This little guy's got to go in." " Do you mind?" " No, not at all." "Thank you." "What did you say your name was?" " Roy." " Thank you, Roy." "I'm Sarah." " So how does this work?" " So it's called sensory integration." "You have your five senses." "You have your touch, your sight, your smell, your taste, and of course, your hearing." "And they all connect to different parts of the brain." "Go ahead." "You can try it." "Yeah." "All right." "So I take the marble." "Put it in the eye right there." "See?" "The eyes took a picture of it, but the brain didn't know what to do with it, so it got lost." "Is that what happens to you?" "No, it's more like I know what I wanna say, but when I go to write it down, my brain gets all the information confused." " Well, that sounds like a bummer." " I just wish I figured it out a lot sooner." " Third grade would've been more fun." " Yeah." "You're telling me." " Hey, Rebecca." " Hey, Alex." " It's a pretty great project, isn't it?" " Yeah, it is." "I just thought..." "You talk about how hard you study and you take these tests and you think that you aced them and then you don't, you don't know why." "No, I..." " Maybe I should get tested." " I think you should." "There you are." "Do you mind if I join you?" "We don't have to talk." "You can just yell at me." "Or, you know, maybe I'll talk." "Because, Paige, this really isn't your mom's fault, okay?" "It's my fault and I am really, really, really sorry." "You know, when I was your age, I was..." "I was teased a lot." "Because you were gay?" "Yeah, well, maybe." "Although nobody really knew back then." "I was a really weird kid." "I mean, for my sixth-grade talent show, I sang a medley from Grease." "Including the Sandy numbers." "And you don't think anyone knew you were gay?" "That's not the point." "I was trying to prove something." " That you're not gay?" " No, that..." "That I wasn't a dork." "So my science project was all about your dorkiness?" "Yeah." "Kind of." "You know, the sad thing is," "Scotty and I were trying so hard to be dads and I think I just screwed up the first test drive." "Don't worry." "It's not like you're gonna get a 12-year-old right off the bat." "Okay." "So how do I make it up to you?" "Can we just sneak out back and get out of here?" "We could." "We could just do that." "Or you could walk back in there with your head held high and present your project." " But it fell apart." " No." "My project fell apart." "Yours didn't." " So did Kevin find her?" " I don't know." "Okay, we're gonna have to stall because she's up next." " Paige Whedon?" " She's in the ladies room." " Yeah, just a minute." " No, wait." "I'm here." "Go get them." "My science project illustrates how a battery can be made using citrus fruit." "It was a lot bigger, but it got knocked down." "But that's okay." "I can still show you the principle." "I used two different types of metals, copper and zinc." "When you squeeze the lemon, the juice acts as a conductor, and the electrons flow through the wires in one direction." "There you go." "A battery." "I'm telling you, it's the wrong move." "How?" "If York is willing to buy your shares at that price, that's gonna more than make up for what you lost in your savings." "And if this is about Rebecca and Justin, you're gonna be in a much better position to help them with the baby if you make this sale." "No, see, you're just not getting it." "I countered with this huge amount to test him." "He was already paying way more than he should have been." "And Io and behold, he bit." "He came all the way up to 350, which is insane." "Well, he is insane." "I mean, he has this ancient grudge against William Walker." "He's obsessed with a dead man." "He's worse than you are." "Trust me, David." "I have looked at this at every single angle." "York had years to make his move." "He's a cattle man, he's got plenty of money." "Why would he come out of the woodwork now?" "I am telling you this is not about the past." "This is about the present." "Who cares?" "Just go to the Walkers and see if they'll beat his price." "Are you kidding?" "They would laugh in my face." "All right, well, fine." "At least you can say you asked." "Holly, make this sale." "Before York wakes up and realizes he's throwing his money away." "But what if he's not?" "What if he's getting the bargain?" "All right, now you lost me." "I think that York knows something about the value of Ojai that I don't." "Do you have evidence of that?" "Because you know Ojai better than anybody." "Maybe I don't." "I don't know how many lemons and oranges, just they all fell to the ground." "But she took one lemon and a little wire and put it in and this one little light just lit up." " I wish I could have seen it." " She was great." "Really, really great." "Nora." "I'm glad you wanted to see me." "Well, I was thinking, and from my experience, what we have together is rare." "I think so too." "So I would like to try again if you want that." "I do." "I do." "I'm sorry you have to leave town again." " Tomorrow?" " Yes." "Yes." "I've been putting off a meeting with this donor for a while and I..." "What time does your plane leave?" "Six o'clock." "Why don't you come over for lunch?" "I would love that." "Nora, you won't regret this." "I promise you." "No, I know I won't." " Hey!" "You slept in." " I was tired." "I used to dream that you would sleep past 7:00." " Here you go." " Dreams come true." "I'm so proud of you, honey." "Honorable mention." "That's a very big deal." "I'm just glad Alex's brain thing won instead of Henry's." "Do you remember last year when we made that maze together and you trained the little rat to run through it?" "His name was Ratmandoo and you hated him." "I did not hate Ratmandoo." "I just didn't like his slimy little tail and the way he:" "Okay, I hated him." "But I really loved working on that together with you." "I know you think I can't do anything without your help, but I can." "I know." "Paige, it's not that I don't trust you." "I guess it's nice to know that you need me." "And I miss that sometimes." "I still can't drive and stuff." "Great." "Paige, you are such a smart and capable, mature young lady." "I'm sorry if I got in your way." "It's Kaya." " Can I take it?" " Yeah." "Go ahead." "Hey." "Hold on a sec." " Thanks, Mom." " You betcha." "I know!" "Can you believe he did that?" "He's such a loser." "He'll have plenty of time to practice..." " Hurry up, we're gonna be late." " It's a doctor's appointment." "No matter how late you are, they still keep you waiting." "That's because everyone thinks that." "If people showed up on time it would work." "Stop worrying." "Everything's gonna be fine." "I'm not worried." "I know what she's gonna say." "We should implant two embryos and they should both be yours." "Well, it's not her decision to make." "I almost cost Paige her honorable mention yesterday because I wanted her to come in first." "Her idea was perfect." " I tried to make it better with a disco ball." " Actually I liked that part." "You know what I should've done?" "I should've left her alone." "And of course I would love the chance to be the biological father, but that's not gonna make me a better dad." "What would make me a better dad is knowing it's not about me." "Well, you know, it also means that no matter what, we're in this together." "Which is why I want to use one of yours and one of mine." "No, it's too much of a risk." "Biology isn't fair." "That doesn't mean that we can't be." "Really?" "Okay." "Nora, you didn't have to do all this." "Well, I tried to be festive." "That's what I love about you." " You make everything special." " I try." " Mom?" " We're in here, sweetie." "I just wanted to apologize for the..." " Simon." " Hey, Sarah." "I didn't realize." "I'm sorry, Mom." "I'll come back." "Oh, no, sweetie." "Don't go." "We're just having lunch before Simon leaves town." "Go on." "Have a sandwich." "My daughter worries about me." "It's silly." "All my kids, they worry about their old mom." " I think it's sweet." "It shows they care." " Although you did disappear." "But like I told her, you had a perfectly reasonable explanation." "Well, it wasn't reasonable, it was crazy, but crazy things happen." "Simon had bone-break fever." " That sounds horrible." " Yeah." "It was." " You should've stayed in Boca Raton." " Boca?" "Yes, he had to go there before he went down into the jungle." "Isn't that what you said?" "Anyway, let's get back to Boca." "My friends who winter there say it's lovely." " Do you know Marilyn Weisman?" " Marilyn Weisman?" "Actually, I didn't know Marilyn until yesterday." "How about you, Simon?" "Sure." "We've met." "Well, I was talking to Marilyn on the phone yesterday and guess what, Sarah?" "Her daughter Rachel is the public defender in Orange County and she went to law school with Kevin." " No." "What a small world." " Yes." "Yes, isn't it?" "And the funny thing is, she says she knows you very well." " Nora, whatever she said..." " And the two of you were quite serious with each other for a brief time not too long ago." " Just friends." " Friends or is she another investor?" "The plot thickens." "You are both very photogenic, might I add." " Maybe I should go." " Sit." "Marilyn invested a very large sum of money in one of Simon's causes, then woke up to an empty bed and a big empty bank account." "No." " Nora, you're not gonna believe this..." " You're right, I don't believe it." "You're a liar." "And somehow I didn't see it, which is crazy because I was married to one for forty years." "Oh, that's not Marilyn Weisman, is it, Mom?" "No, I don't think so." "I think that's probably Detective Tanner." " You called the police?" " Marilyn did." "Gosh, I'm so sorry about those charges she's filed." "Nora." "Nora." "Please..." "I really wouldn't keep Detective Tanner waiting if I were you." "Take a sandwich." "God, Mom!" "That was like..." "That was incredible." "You were like a Bond girl." "Not a Bond girl." "I was like Bond." "Not his girl." " Nora, I was terrified back there." " There's the Bond girl." "I called Saul to come here in case there was trouble." "I had my finger on the alarm's panic button the whole time I was there." "Mom, I am in awe of you." "Well, Sarah, you're not the only one who knows how to Google." " You okay, sweetheart?" " Yes, I'm fine." "I'm fine." " It was very satisfying." " Saul, pass me my phone." " Who are you calling?" " Kitty!" "Come on." "This is the stuff that legends are made of." "Kitty?" "Sarah." "Listen, press "conference."" "I'll wait while you get everybody."
