"Previously on Everwood:" "Colin came through very well." "I want you to know we've done everything humanly possible to help your son." "It was what it was." "An accident." "Out of all of the people I've known my whole life you're the only one who showed up today." "When you've finished this sabbatical come back home." "This is my home now Brian." "One of the hardest things about being a father is  you never know what's yours anymore." "There's always someone out there trying to take what belongs to you." "Or at least make you share." "Your car, your home, food off your plate." "Even your own kids sometimes." "It's a constant battle  fought less with violence than with love." "Fought with the best of intentions  and scented with cinnamon." " Do you think...?" " Can't be." " You guys been cooking?" " No." " We thought you were." " Really?" " Because it smells great." " Which is why we were suspicious." " Nonnie!" " Oh Delia!" "Oh my baby!" " Grandpa?" " There he is." "Did we wake you?" "Jacob I told you to stop slamming the plates down so hard." " lf I slammed they would be broken!" " Say hello." " Delia oh my gorgeous girl!" " Jacob." "Ruth." "How did you get here?" "I would have given you a ride." " At 5:30 in the morning?" " We rented a car." "I thought we'd take a shuttle but they don't have any." "Did you know?" " No idea." " Well it's true." "You don't lock your doors either." "We noticed." "Must be very safe here." " I thought it was." " Ephram how many pieces of French toast do you want?" " Two." " Two?" "You're wasting away to nothing." " Have four." "Andy sit." "I'll get some juice." " That's okay I got it." "Come on sit down." "Sit down." "You look like hell." "With the beard the beard." "Oh my God looks just like me." "I thought Ephram was kidding when he phoned." " I can't believe you guys are here." " Me either." "Me either." "This is the best surprise!" "Sure is." "Now this wasn't on sale but I couldn't resist." "Look at all the ribbons." "Isn't it just to die?" "Is there anything else?" "Now would I come all the way from New York without stopping by Zaro's bakery?" "Black and white cookies!" "You can save that for later honey." "French toast is already dessert." "It's a Bonne Bell." "That was your mother's first lip gloss." " It tastes like candy." " It's not for eating." "It's to keep your lips shiny and pretty." "Come on." "Let's get ready for school." "Do we have to?" "I want to show Nonnie and Grandpa around Everwood." " What about school?" " What's she gonna miss in one day of third grade?" " A times table?" " Fine fine." " I wanna show them around too." " Forget about it." "Don't worry." "We're gonna have plenty of time together." "So how much time we talking about here Jake?" "A couple of days?" "There's my son-in-law." "We just got here you're kicking us out?" "No it's just that if you'd called I could have been more prepared." "How come you didn't call?" "How many months you been here already?" "It's not like I wasn't planning on inviting you." "I just wanted to wait until everything was in order." "And what's not in order?" "We'll go to the market Andy." "Don't worry about anything." "Just pretend like we're not even here." "I could never do that." "Well I gotta get to the office." "In fact why don't you two stop by later?" "If you promise not to tell the medical board I'll let you look at a couple of patients." "I couldn't do that I'm sorry." "You see I'd charge." "I hate hokum." " Did you know anything about this?" " What their trip?" " No." " So they never mentioned anything?" "They said they might come visit." "They didn't say when." "Do me a favor." "You know how you usually behave?" " Distant and miserable?" " Yeah." "Do the opposite." "That better not be for me." "Dust is our enemy today Edna." "Help." " Well this is new." " The in-laws showed up." "Out of nowhere." "In my house." "They're gonna stop by the office too." "No one is safe today." "The Hoffmans have hit Everwood." "They're old people." "Plop them in front of the TV and toss them a bag of chips every half-hour." "You don't know my father-in-law." "Not only is he one of New York's premier transplant surgeons he's also the best dad who ever lived." "He somehow managed to perform over 150 liver transplants a year and never miss a single birthday party." "Did I mention my children worship him?" " He also walks on water?" "Oh jogs on it." "Does pushups on it." "One-handed pushups." "I had this commander in Da Nang." "My first week in triage I watched her successfully resuscitate over 50 soldiers." "She was one of the best nurses and still found time to bake cookies for the platoon every Sunday without fail." " Bitch." " Is she here right now Edna?" "Is she coming to the office to judge your every move?" "I don't think so." "I win." "Take a breath there cowboy." " I can do that." " Attaboy." "You got a patient in room one." "I'll dust you heal." "Hey there Ben." "Says here you got a bad stomachache huh?" " You don't charge people right?" " That's right." " Did you come by yourself?" " Even for house calls?" "Even for house calls." "But since you're already here this doesn't qualify." "It's not me who's sick." "It's my dad." "I lied to the lady." " I see." " Could you come over to my house?" "My dad he can't move." " Need help?" " I'm okay thanks." "Breaking your back for the feminists or you don't want to talk?" "Because I can respect both." "Why wouldn't I want to talk with you Ephram?" "I don't know." "The whole mine thing?" "That was an accident." "Let's just forget about it okay?" "The bag isn't that heavy." "It's just clothes and stuff for the weekend." "I'm going straight to the hospital after school today." "You staying over in Denver?" "I'm gonna be there every weekend till Colin comes home." "He really needs me right now." "So you're not going to that party tomorrow." " No can do." " That's too bad." "It should be pretty cool." "I've never partied in a canyon before." "Us New Yorkers we're more basement people." "Just because I'm not going doesn't mean you can't." "I know that." "I gotta go." "See you later." "And this is the diner." "We eat here a lot." "What does that mean "a lot"?" "Doesn't your father cook a meal once in a while?" " Only if he's feeling cruel." " Edna!" "This is Edna." "She works for my dad." "She took me to the Army." "Then we found God." "And she rides a motorcycle." "Isn't that cool?" "A motorcycle at your age?" "Sounds a little dangerous to me but what do I know?" "You must be Delia's great-grandmother." "Nice to meet you." "This is Nonnie." "She's visiting from New York where the good bagels come from." "A pleasure." " I understand you're dropping by later." " In a little while." "I guess we'll have to postpone Operation Pickup." " Nonnie could do it with us." " Do what with you honey?" "I was gonna show her how to change a tire see how an engine works but I doubt you'd like that." " Why you know me so well already?" " Call it a hunch." "When were you planning on having this little tire seminar?" "Tomorrow afternoon 1300 hours." "We'll be there. 1:00." "That's my dad." "Oh Ben I told you not to." "He's free." "I asked." "I'm Dr. Brown." "How are you feeling?" "I'm actually feeling fine." "Ben's a worrier." "He shouldn't have troubled you." "It's no trouble at all." "I understand you're having some difficulty moving." "Yeah sciatica's been acting up." "It happens every once in a while." "I find that if I just lie here for a couple of days it gets back to normal." "But it means we're gonna miss the big father-son fly fest tomorrow." " What's that?" " It's a big fishing competition at the Larchmont River." "Ben walked off with a huge trout last year didn't you son?" "You mind if I look?" "Maybe I can do something." "No that'd be fine since you're here." " Can you sit up at all?" " You'll need a forklift." "Is your mom around Ben?" "She could take you back to school now." "My mom doesn't live here anymore." "It's just me and Benny but we're doing pretty good for ourselves." "And you get on your bike get back to school." "I'll be all right." " You'll help him?" " I'll help him." "Fabulous!" "Perfect!" " Somewhere Sinatra is smiling." " Look who's home." " 8:00?" " I stopped to get pizza." " Gino's was backed up." " We already ate." " That sounded good Ephram." " Oh not good." "A boy who hasn't taken lessons in months that sounded great." " We're still looking for the right teacher." " News to me." "If Ephram wants one he knows he can ask me." "Some things he shouldn't have to a parent should just do." "Andy honey I found some sheets for the sofa bed." "So sweetheart just tell me where you keep the extra pillows." "Nonnie you are not sleeping on the sofa." "You can have my room." "I'll sleep down here." "I wouldn't dream of it." "We don't want to impose." " I insist." "All right if you insist." "Delia!" "Go pick a bedtime story!" "Come on." "I want you to show me what they're teaching you at school." " Good night Andy." " Good night." "What kind of house is this?" "It's like an oven in here." "The waffle iron is too hot." "That's why it smells like rubber cement." "Good morning Jake." "Sleep well?" "So-so." "The mattress is a little soft." "Beware." "It cooks." "Sit down kiddo." "I'm making your favorite." " Burnt waffles." " Not that burnt so eat up." "You gotta save your strength for the father-son fly fest." "Fly fest?" "What is this some kind of rock concert?" "It's a fishing competition over at the river." "I know you like to fish I thought we'd check it out." "Three generations of fathers and sons." "What do you think?" "I think the fumes in here have done permanent damage to your brain." " Don't talk to your father like that." " Sorry." "You know maybe it'll be fun." "Hey hell let's do it." " That's okay." "If he doesn't want to go..." " Wait a minute Andy." "Hey Ephram will you do it for me?" "Huh champ?" "I mean it'll be great." "And if we don't like it we'll leave." "Okay." "But only if you promise to get breakfast on the way." "Deal." "Okay we leave in 20 minutes." "You're here early." "Morning." "Oh I slept here." "It's easier and it saves me on all the bus fare." "Guess what I brought." "Remember we were talking about last year's Christmas dinner?" " I think so." " I found it but Colin's room doesn't have a VCR so I thought we could just ask the nurses." "I don't think we should bother them with that now." "I don't think it would bother them." "It would help." " Help what?" " Help him remember his life everyone." "He will remember Amy." "In time he will." "Sweetie I know you mean well but right now the pressure you're putting on Colin and yourself it's too much." "What do you mean?" "I mean he's making fantastic progress." "He's speaking again he can sit himself up." "The doctors are optimistic about his memory returning but this takes time." "I know but I don't think we should stop pushing." "We won't." "But you have to." "You're making it worse Amy." "How?" "Your expectations." "It's a strain on all of us especially Colin." "Go home." "Take a break." "Get your life back." "We're not going anywhere." "I'm not asking you Amy." " Isn't this great?" "I wish I had a camera." " You do have a camera." "Wish I knew where it was." "Dr. Brown." " I need your help." "The brace isn't working." " They come to your home?" "I'm sorry Ben but we're on our way out." "I'll stop by later this afternoon." "You're going to the fly fest?" "I can't go." "My dad can't move." "This kid's good." "Dad don't worry about it." "We'll go." "They probably don't want three people on a team anyway." "It's true." "They don't." "Well maybe I'll meet you guys later." "By the time you get there the whole thing will be finished." "Go to your patient." "He and I will go fishing and we'll see you later." " Well have a good time." " We will." "So then when you finish tightening up the lug nuts then you put the hubcap back on and Bob's your uncle." " Can I go under with your slidey thing?" " Sure." " No!" "What does she have to see?" "I thought you were changing it." "She wants an overview of how the machine works." "What's wrong with that?" " It could fall on her head that's what." " I'll be careful." "Why does my granddaughter need to know how to change a tire?" "In case she gets a flat so she's not stranded on the highway." "That's why God invented AAA." "Why be dependent on other people for what she can do herself?" "What's wrong with help?" "Well maybe you enjoy having people wait on you hand and foot lady but Delia is a strong girl." "Don't you tell me what my granddaughter is." "I know what she is." " I think I'm stuck." " I got her." "Oh look at you." "Oh you are a mess!" " Come here." " Between dirt on my face and spit on my face I'd take the dirt." "Sweetheart look at this." "Your favorite diner's having a poetry reading tonight." " Doesn't that sound like fun?" " I guess so." "A little culture." "So it's not the Met." "But we make do right?" "Wanna have culture with us Edna?" "No thanks." "I'm not big on poetry." "Really?" "What a surprise." "Oh what the heck?" "I'm always up for new things." "I'd love to tag along if it's all right with your Nonnie." "Whatever you want Delia." "This place." "This place is amazing!" "I can't imagine why your father never brought you." "Yeah well fishing's not really our thing." "Not even the new Andy?" "The furry PTA waffle-making Andy?" " Freakazoid." "I didn't know you did sunlight." " Didn't know you moonlighted as a condom." "You're headed to the fly fest?" "Your father doesn't seem the type." "This is my grandpa." "Grandpa this is Dr. Abbott." "He's the other doctor in town." " He means the sane one." " It's a pleasure." "And this?" " My son Bright." " How are you?" " Oh good thanks." " Nice to meet you." "Well we'll just take our places then down there." "All the best gentlemen." "Time to go kick some serious fish butt." " Do fish actually..." " Oh move along son." " Funny guy." " He seems to think so." " Whole family's not that bad though." " Really?" "There's a daughter." "I knew it." "I was waiting for you to let me in on some dirt." " What's her name?" " Amy." " But things are a little awkward now." " How come?" "I kind of kissed her the other day." " Good for you." " She has a boyfriend." "Who do you think you are Russell Crowe?" "Come on show me how you cast." "Go ahead." "That's beautiful." "You're a natural." "So how big is the boyfriend?" "I'm not sure." "He's still recovering from a car wreck." "My dad operated on him." "No kidding." "I read about that." "So that's the guy." "You sure know how to pick them." "What does your father say about all this?" "We don't really talk about girl stuff." "Not even the new Andy huh?" "Two and 10." "Two and 10." "This brace is gonna be uncomfortable for a while but it'll strengthen the muscles in your back by forcing you to use better posture." "That sounds good." "You do realize though that these problems are symptomatic of a much larger issue." "No pun intended right?" "I'm not gonna lie to you." "I'm worried about your weight." "If we don't do something to bring it down these problems are only gonna get worse as you get older." "I've tried every diet in the book." "Fact is it's in my genes." "My granddaddy was fat my daddy was fat." "Genetics play a part but there are surgical procedures." "My insurance would never cover those." "It falls under "cosmetics" or something." "No I'm fine." "Nothing to worry about." "Right Ben?" "I'll tell you what." "I'll make some calls and see what I can do okay?" "We'll be in touch." "Are you really gonna call them?" "I just wanna know." "You don't have to worry so much about your dad." "He's a grownup." "He's taking care of himself." "I'll call them okay Ben?" "I promise." "I gotta talk to you." "Oh you got the results back from your IQ test?" "You failed?" "It's about Amy." "You gotta come to Sean's party tonight." "Forget it." "I already know she's not gonna be there." "You don't know." "She's on her way back from the hospital." "Colin's folks don't want her hanging out there and she's completely depressed." "What do you mean?" "Why don't they want her there?" "She's stressing everybody out." "Colin doesn't even remember who anyone is anyways." " What do you mean he doesn't remember?" " You my echo?" "Look it's bad so I'm taking her to the party tonight and you're gonna be there to cheer her up." " Why would me being there cheer her up?" " Believe me I don't get it any more than you do." "For some reason it seems like you're the only one that can make my sister smile." "How do you even know she'll come?" "Don't worry." "I'll get her there." "You just show up on time." "Bright!" "Bright I think I got something!" "Oh Lord..." "I can assure you that Mr. O'Connell needs this procedure." "It's not so he can look better in a bathing suit." "Yes well thank you very much." "You've been absolutely no help at all." "How was the fishing?" "You guys catch anything?" " You see any fish?" " That's okay." "I'm gonna take us to Gino Chang's for a dinner that you will never forget." " You're gonna love it." " Great." "I can't go." "I got a party." "Your grandfather's only in town for a while." "You can miss a party." " Actually I can't." " Andy." "I'll handle this." "I'm gonna make this simple for you." "You're not going." "So you can either sit in your room or you can come with your grandfather and I to dinner." "Your choice." "You know you can stomp all you want." "It's not gonna change anything." "Sometimes I have to be tougher with him than I wanna be." "You don't know what you're doing." "Excuse me?" "You ground him for wanting to go to a party on Saturday night but you let him quit studying the piano." "That's not right." " I'm not gonna force him to play." " Why not?" "He's not doing anything around here." "He has no friends he has no life and you're just gonna sit back and watch because you don't wanna force him?" "What kind of parenting is that?" "Look I didn't ask for your criticism Jacob and I happen to be doing the best I can." " It's not good enough." " That's a hell of an assumption." "Don't play offended with me." "You never took an interest in him and it's catching up with you." " Thank God my daughter's not alive..." " She's not and it hasn't been particularly easy in her absence so I would appreciate just a bit of understanding from you particularly since you are a guest in my house." "You know you're right." "This hasn't been easy on any of us but I'll be damned if I'll let you undo everything my daughter did for those kids." "Can't believe I'm gonna kill myself for a kegger." "Alrighty then." "We're gonna take a 10-minute intermission." "Don't..." "Don't go nowhere." "Okay." "This is Everwood's cultural epicenter?" "The local video store carries Run Lola Run." "Sweetheart stop fussing with them." " You'll get a run." " They keep on falling down." "Why don't you just take them off." "Because she's from New York where women gladly suffer for beauty." "My legs are really sweaty." "Hey hey let's see who's up next." "How many more people are there?" "You don't like the show?" "It might be over her head." "My granddaughter enjoyed The Nutcracker at Radio City and Carmen at the Met." "She can stay awake while the town's best spellers recite atop a deep fryer." "That may be but it's not gonna get any better." "I say we "am-scray."" "It's impolite to leave the theater before the performance is over." "We're not in the theater." "I'm sitting on an onion ring." "It's a question of manners which I am trying to teach my granddaughter." "The kid is full of manners." "She says please and thank you what else she need to know?" "You may not see the need to close your mouth while you chew but the Hoffmans have higher standards." "There." "Can I have a sundae now?" "Come on in it's open." "Hey Mike." "Andy Brown." "Dr. Brown it's a Saturday night." "Don't you have better places to be?" "If only I did Mike." "But I got some great news for you." " Is Ben around?" " He's back in his room." "What's going on?" "I spent the whole afternoon on the phone with insurance people." "They're awful." "So I started thinking outside of the box." "I wish you hadn't wasted that kind of time." "Lucky for you I have no life." " I talked to some friends in New York..." " On Saturday?" "Once upon a time I used to be a famous person." "People take my calls." "They said they would be happy to perform your gastric bypass for the price of one plane ticket." "What do you think about that?" "It's all very sweet but I'm not having any kind of surgery Dr. Brown." "I'm just not all that anxious to get under the knife." "You understand." "I don't." "I thought it was the money that was preventing..." "Well money was a part of it." "The truth is I am very happy the way I am." "I mean I have an occasional backache but it's no big deal." "No Mike it is a big deal." "Your back problems are the least of your concerns." "Your weight makes you more susceptible to heart disease gastric disorders not to mention type II diabetes..." "You can throw all the scary words at me." "I'm not changing my mind." "Mike listen to me." "I am telling you that you could die." "When my time comes it comes." "My dad passed at 55 but he died a very happy man." "That's really all we can ask." "No it's not." "No it's not!" "We're all entitled now to live much longer and happier lives and this surgery I'm talking about is much less invasive now." "We can keep the postoperative pain to a minimum..." "Good night Dr. Brown." " This hood taken?" " Hey." "I swear I saw an actual coyote waiting in line for the keg." " I thought you couldn't make it." " I was gonna say the same to you." "Yeah well my brother practically forced me into the car so I didn't have much choice." "Well you look nice for someone forcibly removed from home." "Thank you." "Tequila anyone?" "I can show you how to do a body shot Amy." " I'll pass." " New dude?" "I'm cool." "I can't believe you didn't want him licking your neck." "You must be seriously depressed." "So how are you?" "Really." "I'm great." "Good." "Because you know I heard Col..." "You know he's not doing that well." "Actually he's doing amazing." "Well because I mean it can take a long time to fully recuperate especially from a head trauma like this." "And how would you know Ephram?" "Have you ever known anybody in a coma before?" "I asked my dad." "I know progress can be slow." " It's even harder on the person waiting..." " Why are you telling me this?" "I didn't ask." "No I just..." "I see you so stressed out all the time." "I just wanna help." "You can't." "I'm sure you're fine Amy okay?" "But I just think maybe you should take a break." "Wait till he's back to school." "Try and move on a little bit." "You know what Ephram?" "Maybe you should move on." "Hey." "Hook me up." "Thank you." "And thanks everybody for coming." "Don't forget Thursday night is interpretive dance." "Please wear deodorant." "When did we lose her?" "I think somewhere around that nervous woman's fifth haiku." " Isn't she an angel?" " That she is." "She looks so much like my Julia." "Such soft features." "Your daughter was a beautiful woman." "Dr. Brown keeps a photograph on his desk." "She'll forget her." "She's too young." "Her memories will fade." "Ephram's won't but Delia?" "Not right." "How will she ever know how lucky she was what a wonderful mother she had?" " You'll remind her." " I can't." "I'm not here." "She's only been here a few months and already..." "She's growing up so fast." "I don't know what she likes anymore." "What to buy her." "Not that I ever knew what to buy this one." " Fiercely independent." " Tell me about it." "You'll tell me about it." "She likes you." "You have a lot in common." "It's good." "You know something tells me she's not gonna forget you Nonnie." "She has your chin you know." "Look at that." "I never noticed that before." "She does." "Excuse me." "You see a Porta-Potty?" "Never mind." "Back to work." "Dude I gotta go pee." " Dude use the bushes." " Bushes." "Okay." "Hello Mr. Bush." "You're so nice and green." "I am your sprinkler." "Sprinkler." "That's funny." "More people should like me." "Coming coming coming." "Is this your son?" "Can't be." "My son is safely tucked into his bed upstairs." " He's not Ephram Brown?" " Depends." " What did he do?" " Public intoxication and underage drinking." "He's never been a problem so we didn't take him in." "If we..." "You catch him again you better keep him." "Thank you officer." "You gotta be kidding me." " Really wanna do this right now?" " Oh yeah I think so." "What the hell's going on?" "Are you drunk?" "Not enough but we can fix that." " Toss me a Heineken." " You think this is funny?" "It's bad enough that you drank but you had to pick this weekend to turn into a teenager?" "You haven't been to a party since we got here and suddenly you're getting plastered and arrested?" "You wanna embarrass me in front of your grandparents you've done a hell of a job." "That's exactly right." "That's what this is about." "This is all about you." "I got arrested just so you could feel bad about yourself." "That's not what I meant." ""Hey look at me." "I'm Superdad." "Let's fish and make waffles."" "I got news for you." "They're not buying it but don't worry." "You raise my allowance I promise I'll give you a hug." "Right in front of Grandpa." "All right listen." "I'm not gonna talk to you when you're like this." "Go to bed." "I'll talk to you in the morning." "Okay." "You know maybe I should drink more often because not talking to me that's the best idea you've ever had." "Ever." "All right!" "Hold your horses." " Ben." " You said you were gonna help him!" "You promised me!" "Maybe if I pay you." "It's not about that." "He's not interested." " You have to make him interested!" " It's just not that simple." "Look he's my dad." "Can't you just try one more time?" "For me." "What else is there?" "Is it possible she really wants four cartons of eggs?" "We don't question the list we just do its bidding." "I think we'd better get you some aspirin." "Come on." "Or a new head." "That'd be good." "You know what you did last night was pretty stupid." "You know that?" "He was being unreasonable." "You saw." "Yeah I'm not arguing that." "But sneaking out of the house?" "Getting drunk?" " That's childish." "You're not a child." " He treats me like one." "Well don't let him." "When I was a kid we had no money my family." "I had to work every day after school just to put food on the table." "Now that makes you grow up pretty fast." "By the time I was 16 I was considered a man by my mother and father and that was one of the greatest gifts they ever gave me." "Know what I found out?" " What?" " Getting what you want is easy." "Knowing what you what that's the challenge." "That's what separates the men from the boys." " You understand?" " No not really." "Let me try it this way." "What do you want Ephram?" "I don't mean just permission to go to a party." "I mean for your life." "Right now what do you want?" "What do you wish for?" "I don't know." "Well figure it out." "Then make it happen." " I'm sorry." " I'm sorry I apologize." "Ephram." "Is this your grandfather?" "Yeah." "Grandpa this is Amy Abbott." "Amy Abbott." " Nice to meet you." " Nice to meet you." "Give me this." "I'll go get you some aspirin." "So I heard the cops busted up the party last night." "Yeah." "How long were you there?" "Long enough to move on." "What are you making?" "Well if you want the good French toast I have to make the challah from scratch." "Your grandfather can't seem to find a Jewish bakery anywhere." " Go figure." " Can I help?" "I thought you were gonna finish doing the tires with Edna." "I can do that anytime." "I'd rather stay home with you." "Did your mother ever tell you her famous Shabbat story?" "I don't remember." "Well she was right around your age and going to the yeshiva just a few blocks down from our house." "And every Friday they would do a little Shabbat service." "You know light the candles say the motzei." "Anyway every week a different child would get to lead the prayer." "Well it was a big honor and the week it was your mother's turn that's all she could talk about." "I spent an hour French-braiding her hair that morning." "I will never forget it." "So the big moment finally comes." "She walks up to the head of the table and as soon as they pin the big dolly on her head she starts screaming." "She wanted everyone to see her pretty French braid." "So what happened?" "Dossie Pearl did the motzei and your mother sat back down in her chair and at the end of the prayer smiled and said "Amen" with the rest of the children." "No one could tell your mother what to do." "She was a..." "She was a tough cookie." "Am I doing it right?" "You're doing it perfect tatteleh." "Just perfect." "You just don't know when to stop do you?" "Your son came to my house this morning." "He shouldn't have done that." "He's worried about you Mike." "And let me tell you something:" "I would give anything to have with my son what you have with yours." "You have no idea how lucky you are." "Yeah he is a good kid." "Then help him." "Help him by taking care of yourself." "Look forget everything I said the other day." "That's not what it's about." "You need to have this surgery because your son needs you." "It's as simple as that." "I'm scared." "I know." "It's natural." "Not just about going under the knife." "What if this doesn't work?" "What if I go through the whole thing the operation everything and nothing changes?" "What if I keep eating the same way?" "I don't think I could disappoint Ben like that." "I don't wanna fail in front of him that way." "If you don't try you're still gonna let him down." "And as for failing in front of your son you're looking at the master." "The good news is it gets easier the more you do it." "Why don't you give yourself a chance." "Give Ben a chance." "So what's a plane ticket cost these days?" "Hey." "What's going on?" "We're just talking." "What about?" "About New York." "About Ephram coming to live there with us." "Who brought this up?" "I did." "I see." "Ephram give us a minute alone will you?" "It'll be all right." "What are you doing?" " This isn't me." " Like hell it isn't." "You think you decided something here?" "You think you're gonna take my son from me?" "Hold it hold it hold it." "We haven't made any decision." "We're just talking." " There's nothing to talk about." " He's not doing well Andy." "Not here and not with you and you know it too." "Think he'll do better away from his family?" "Hey I'm his family." "He's spent more time with me in the last 15 years than he has with you." "Think a couple months in the mountains makes up for missing most of his life?" "It doesn't." "You and I are surgeons Andy right?" "We know how it's done." "You locate the problem." "You go in." "You excise it." "You move on." "What you don't do is ignore it and pretend it'll go away..." " I'm not ignoring it." "Look we are doing better now." "We are working things out." "You have no idea how hard this kid has been." "I know I know I know." "I've been watching you." "I see you're trying and I appreciate it more than you'll ever believe but it's too big." "Even for you Andy." "Now it's an easy fix." "What's more it's what he wants." "You know the other day he was talking to me about the girl that he likes." "It wasn't much we talked for about an hour." "But he was laughing." "He was laughing." "I haven't seen him laugh since we got here." "Andy I get him." "And he gets me." "Just think about it."
