"Yeah,oh... no,no,he just said that'cause we used to be married." "It's just a force of habit." "Oh,that explainseverything." "Except that I checkedyour insurance forms,and you're still married." "So that makes youa lying,adulterous skank." "Oh,no." "No,no.No,no,nurse hisel." "Ow,ow,ow,ow!" "Ow,nurse hisel!" "Ugh!" "Nurse--oh!" "Nurse hisel,I can explain." "Can you,skank?" "Yes." "Okay." "I am married,but it's only because my insurance ran out." "My ex-husband hasa really good coverage plan, so he said thathe would remarry me so I couldget my operation." "Only I didn'twanna tell dr." "Ron 'cause I didn't want himto be an accomplice to fraud." "So you're what... protecting him?" "Yeah." "It--yes,I am." "Okay." "As long as you're nottwo-timing him." "He feelsso strongly about you." "I know." "I read the card." "But did you readbetween the lines?" "What do you mean?"

"But you haveto act surprised,okay?" "Oh,yeah,I'll be surprised." "So I guess we have the wholeinsurance thing worked out." "Oh!" "Pfft." "Don't worryabout that." "Please." "Who am I to cast stones?"

"Don't you remember?" "For the record,I did not punch my son." "I slapped himwith an open palm." "Yeah,but,mom,the thing is, when you drink,you don't knowyour own strength." "This is ridiculous." "Can't you seethis is a performance?" "Mrs. Van de kamp,I've heard enough." "Clearly,this environment isa highly dysfunctional one." "Andrew has retained my services in order to pursuea healthier living situation." "And what might that be?" "I,um,I wanna be emancipated." "Emancipated?" "As an emancipated minor,andrew would be able to live on his own." "He'd still go to school,of course, but he'd be releasedfrom all adult supervision." "Well,that's the silliest thingI've ever heard of." "How wouldhe support himself?" "Well,he'd be in completecontrol of his own finances." "So that's what this is about--your trust fund?" "Obviously,we'd all prefer not to go to family court, but with the violenceand your D.U.I. Charge, it could get ugly." "Uh,mr." "Bormanis," "I'll need a little timeto think about this." "You have 24 hours." "boy,it really lookslike we're having a good time." "I sure hope this works." "Well,as long as they don'tmake me play guitar," "I thinkwe're home free." "Mr. And mrs." "Solis,rhoda can see you now." "Wow!" "It looks like you spendlots of time with these kids." "Oh,we take our rolesas godparents very seriously." " Don't we,honey?" " Mm-hmm." "Yes." "Oh,they're precious.What are their names?" "Parker and,uh... porter,uh... and,uh... well,they're all p'S.It is super cute." "One sec.Do you need me,helen?" "Hello,gabrielle." "Carlos." "I didn't knowyou were adopting." "Preston!" "The other one's nameis preston." "helen,you work here?" "You all know each other?" "What a small world." "It sure is." "Mrs. Solis hired my sonto do her yard work." "And also,she would rape him." "Okay,first of all,it was statutory, and it happenedso long ago." "Was it?" "I thinkit was only about a year ago." "No,it was a year, because it was right beforeyour husband went to prison on slave labor charges." "Rhoda,if you don't mind," "I think I'll handlethe soils case myself." "I'd like to make it my top priority.Okay." "Oh,and,um,gabrielle,don't bother trying to contact any other adoption agenciesin the area." "I'll make surethey know all about you." "I think I haveto break up with dr." "Ron." "What?" "Why?" "Because he's a gem." "And apparentlyhe loves me." "I'm sorry.I'm not following." "Lynette,he is everything" "I could possibly wanting a boyfriend, and I just don't knowif I feel that... spark." "You know,and I really want to." "Aw,sweetie." "And he keeps telling mehow special I am and how muchI mean to him... how he wants to holdmy beating heart in his hand." "Maybe it's because I just haven'tfelt that thunderbolt yet." "You know,with mike,it hit me.With karl,it his me." "I didn't have to worryabout how I felt becausethe thunderbolt told me." "Yeah,yeah.Gotta love the thunderbolt." "Do I,though?" "I mean,I do" "But I don'ttrust it anymore." "You know,those relationshipsturned out to be disasters." "Maybe I shouldstick it out with dr." "Ron, and I should try heading downa road that's growing and slower intoa sort of kind of love that would sustain itselffor 50 years." "Right?" "Stability,comfort,endurance--I deserve that." "Oh,yes!" "Of course you do." "Still,you gotta lovethe thunderbolt." "That's not helpful." "Sorry." "Ah,this is a sign." "Will you shut up?" "We lost a baby,found outwe can't conceive another one, and ran into helen rowlandat an adoption agency." "God is obviouslytrying to tell us something." "Carlos,we're catholics,okay?" "God is pretty johnny one note on the whole subjectof procreation." "Hey,and will you stopwith this defeatist attitude?" "Okay,do you wanta baby or not?" "I think it's time that we facedreality-- we're bad people,and we probably don'teven deserve to be parents." "Well,then who the hell does?" "I mean,look at all the idiotspopping kids." "Okay,they're not any morequalified than we are." "I don't know." "Look,carlos... it doesn't matterwhat we've done in our past." "Being a parentmeans rising to the occasion, and that's exactlywhat we're gonna do when we bring our baby home." "This is the first time I really felt likeyou wanted to have a baby." "(Sighs)well,this is the first time someone told meI couldn't have one." "Okay,so whatare we gonna do?" "I mean,no adoption agencyis gonna touch us now." "There are waysto get babies,carlos." "It just might cost us." "I have some contactsin the police department." "I've been making calls,but I can't seem to get a straight answerabout your dad." "I don't understand.How do they just lose somebody?" "They don't,not by accident." "But I don't think what happenedto your dad was an accident." "What's thatsupposed to mean?" "zach!" "Mrs. Tillman." "Hello,zachary.You look terrible." "Oh,mr." "Delfino." "Isn't thisjust a picture?" "Felicia,why are you here?" "Young zacharyand I didn't exactly part on the best of terms." "In fact,when the weather's damp," "I'm still remindedof our last good-bye." "But forgive and forget.That's my motto." "Macaroon?" "dad!" "You all right?" "now how did you knowl love macaroons?" "it won't end here,you know.Noah taylor doesn't give up." "Look,don't worry about us.We'll be gone by morning." "No,it's too latefor that now." "I guarantee he's got people watching you." "What is it withyou anyway?" "First,you want me to run." "Now you want us to stick around likesitting ducks for this maniac." "Go ahead,run." "Noah's gotthe cops in his pocket." "What do you think's gonna happenthe first time you try to buy gas with a credit card oropen a new bank account?" "So I'm a dead man." "Maybe not." "Not if we usewhat leverage we have." "No way." "The old man's gonna be dead in a couple of months,maybe less." "Let him meet zach," " play the doting grandfather" " I said forget it." "I'll do it." "If it meanshe'll leave us alone," "I'm readyto be leveraged." "Nicholsonwill be coming in in about 15 minuteswith a pitch, so let's grab everybody and make surewe're all on the same page." "Hang on a second." "What's going on?" "I need to say this." "Ah,yeah..." "I have been giving youa lot of grief lately about being the boss." "But it's justhard for a guy to feel like he's not in chargeof any part of his life." "But,honey, it goes back and forth." "I know." "But it just feelsa little one-sided lately, and sometimesI need to drive the train." "But,look,I know it is my issue." "It's my issue, and I will step upand deal with it." "Mmm." "Whoa." "Hello." "What's going on,huh?" "I'm picking up where we left off." "Last night." "Oh,I get it." "I get it." "Ooh!" "This is your ideaof driving the train." "And it's very manlyand really impressive, but it's really,reallybad timing." "You can't be serious." "Mmm." "We're gonna--we're gonna be late." "Yeah,we are goingto be late." "Okay." "There is nothingmore important than family." "And I think it's so unfairsome are denied their god-given rightto parent just because of a fewsordid incidents in their past." "Now" "I may have to exploresome unconventional paths to find your child." "I might even have to take actionsome might view as unsavory." "But before I do..." "I need proofthat the two of you are prepared to facethe challenges ahead." "$20,000." "Is that proof enoughfor you?" "Yes,it is." "Nice to meet you,young man." "I'm not gonna hug you." "I don't careif you are my grandfather." "Ah." "That's okay.Hugging's not really my thing." "Mike,could you wait outside?" "I'd like to be alonewith zachary." "Not a chance." "Just curious... why was it so importantyou see me?" "You're my grandson." "My flesh and blood." "Isn't it only natural I'd wanta relationship with you?" "What kind of relationshipcan we have when I know you triedto kill my dad?" "Surely,you can understand the rage I must feeltowards your father." "Go ahead." "Feel all the rageyou wanna feel." "But if anythinghappens to him," "I swear to god you are nevergonna see me again." "You only met metwo minutes ago, and here you are, already blackmailing me." "I couldn't be prouder." "I'm serious." "I want you to swear you're notgonna do anything to my dad." "Which dad?" "You have two of 'em." "You knowwho I'm talking about-- my dad,the man who raised me, the only mani'm ever gonna care about." "So swear." "I swear." "Well,now thatthe ground rules have been set, who's up for somemeaningless small talk?" "well,if it isn'tthe plumber." "You here to see susan?"

"He used words like"soul mate" and "eternity."" "I almostpuked in the vase." "What'd susan thinkabout that?" "Well,she seemedto be really into it." "Mike!" "Oh,wait,stop!" "Go back!" "Stop!" "Stop a second." "Hey!" "What are you doing here?" "I just,uh,wanted to wishyou luck before your surgery." "Aw,that's so sweet." "You came all the waydown here just for me." "Yep."
