"Previously on "Everwood"..." "You talked to Ephram lately?" "Ephram and I are not getting back together, and we're not gonna have a double wedding with you and Bright." "And guess what?" "Maybe you and Bright won't even get married." "Don't attack me and Bright just because you're not happy." "I think you have this idea that you and Bright and Ephram and I are the four musketeers or something, but the world is a little bit bigger than that, and you meet new people, experience new things." "I told you that, remember?" "I'm not going to go to the meetings anymore." "Why?" "That sounds bad." "N.A. didn't work for me before, and it isn't working now." "I have to do it my own way." "I think I'm as excited with the prospect of our new child as you are." "Just think of how you're going to feel when you've got that precious little girl in your arms." ""Any history of cancer or heart disease?"" "No." "So, this guy walks into the office, and he says that he wants hair implants all over his body, top to bottom." "Does that even fall under the category of plastic surgery?" "That's my point exactly." ""Nip/Tuck" is making a complete mockery of my profession." "And yet you continue to watch." "Yes." "What else am I gonna do?" "Since I cut back on my hours, I got a lot of free time on my hands." "Harold and I have these meetings a couple of times a month where we get together and discuss cases and get each other's input." "You were such a help last week on the Newhoff case, maybe you'd like to join our little round table." "Really?" "Yeah." "Well, to be honest with you, it's less of a round table and more of a... scrabble-and-pastries kind of a thing with a little medicine thrown in." "I love scrabble... and pastries." "Great, 'cause I'm getting tired of being the only one to challenge Harold for using fake words." "So, you're in?" "Definitely, yeah." "Great." "The next meeting's on thursday and new guy brings the pastries." "Hey." " You smell that?" " Oh, yeah." "Hey, buddy." "Hey, can you hear me?" "Can you tell us your name?" "Ed Carnahan." "Let me get something to treat that head wound." "Pulse is weak and thready." "Ed, Ed, Ed?" "He's unconscious." " Somebody call 911." " Got it." "Hang in there, buddy." "Hang in there." "I can't believe this." "This is such crap!" "What happened?" "Did they cancel your gym membership again?" "Sorry." "I just can't help with the sarcasm." "It just slips out of me." "Yeah, well, save it, 'cause I can't deal with it right now." "I seriously feel like breaking something!" "Whoa." "I've never seen the angry reaction from you before." "I didn't even know they made that model." "According to this, I just got put on academic probation." "If I don't get my grades up, they're gonna take away my scholarship." "I'm totally screwed." "That sucks." "Think they made a mistake?" "No, I don't think so." "My GPA's on life support." "I've been behind from day one, and now it's just snowballed." "But, seriously, I don't see how they expect us to keep up." "It's like there's so much work, they want everyone to fail." "Maybe you could talk to somebody about it." "I'm talking to you, aren't I?" "No, I mean somebody qualified." "I find community college challenging." "I think we both agree that Bright's advice is limited to cheeseburgers and porn." "You think I need a shrink?" "It could help." "No, thank you." "My brother's the one with all the head doctors." "I am going to become a head doctor." "Big difference." "Okay." "What about your school?" "I'm sure they have guidance counselors or something for you, right?" "Yeah, Dr. Franco, but I don't think " "Franco -- there you go." "Perfect." "He's a doctor." "You guys could get together and exchange med-school stories or whatever, you know?" "He could teach you a new way to study." "It'd be perfect." "Yeah." "Yeah." "I mean, he's probably heard stuff like this before, right?" "Yeah." "I mean, I can't be the only one in my class having a tough time." "Thanks, Ephram." "His head hit the windshield." "He's probably got a concussion." "He got two broken ribs -- may have punctured something." "Blood pressure's 110/50." "Could mean internal bleeding." "Make sure they check the spleen." "We need "O" neg right away and a cat scan." "Yeah, we got it from here." "All righty, then." "That's a lot to take in before my morning coffee." "It's better than coffee." "That's adrenaline, baby." "Ah, youth " " I don't miss it." "I better call the police and tell them what happened." "Oh, hey, I was thinking maybe we should hold off on calling the police just yet." "We should probably hear this guy's story first, right?" "I think his story's pretty clear." "Guy gets drunk, guy crashes car -- unless I'm missing something." "Well, no, but..." "I kind of wanted to talk to him first." "I know what you're thinking, but I swear this has nothing to do with me being in recovery or anything like that." " Are you guys friends?" " No, no." "I never even met the guy before, but I feel for him." "He's obviously in pretty bad shape." "I mean, he might not even make it out of surgery." "Well, that's true." "So, do we really need to cause his family even more pain" " by getting the police involved?" " No necessarily." "They're gonna find out eventually, so why not just call " "Let's just hold off for now until we see how bad he is." "Okay, if it's important for you, we'll wait until he's out of surgery." "Okay, great." "Great." "Hey, Amy." "Guess what's finally here." "Uh, summer vacation." ""In her shoes." I have no idea why movies take so long to get to Everwood." "Do you know why it takes so long to get a table?" "Sorry." "Anyway, I was just thinking maybe we could go this weekend -- if you're free." "Sorry about that." "Unless you hate Cameron Diaz, which I know how you get hot and cold with her." "No, it's just that I already saw it." "I'm sorry, Hannah." "It was a last-minute thing." "Kate and Beth were going after class, and they asked me if I wanted to go, and I wasn't sure about you and me, and I " "But you know what?" "I'll totally see it again." "No, that's silly." "Don't worry about it." "It's fine." "I'm a jerk, Hannah." "I should have waited." "No, it's okay, you know." "You're right." "We haven't really been talking to each other much lately." "I shouldn't have just assumed." "No, no, but I want you to assume." "God, I feel like we've been fighting over all this weird stuff." "We can disagree." " We can?" " Yes." "You could go vote republican all you want." " Well, I can't vote yet, so " " See?" "Even better." "What are you doing tomorrow?" "Nothing." "I was gonna see Bright, but I can cancel." "I see him every day." "Then let's hang out -- no politics, no rallies, just food and girl talk." "Yay!" "I love girl and food talk." "I mean, you know -- whatever." " Okay, I'll see you later." " Okay, bye." "Ahh, sweet symphony of silence." "I better put this away." "I guess we don't really " "Rose?" "Harold, you're home." "Someone been smoking marijuana in our living room?" "I'm sorry." "We probably should have gone outside." "That's my fault." "Who are you?" "Oh, hey." "Bill Schmicker." "Bill's a member of my support group." "Ah, yes, the support group." "So, where exactly is the group?" "Has it dwindled down to just the two of you after only three weeks?" "Oh, no, they all left about a half-hour ago." "We had our best meeting ever." "I think we're all finally getting comfortable enough with each other that we're really opening up." "I think so." "Clearly." "Well, it's funny." "When you told me about joining this group," "I foolishly thought that it was about you and other cancer victims discussing shared experiences, but apparently it's about getting high." "Oh, Harold." "You know, I think I should get going." "I trust you're not driving home in your condition." "No, I can drive with cancer." "That was good." "I'm sorry." "I live a few blocks away." "I walked over here." "Uh, well, I'll just show myself out." "Oh, thank you." "You're most welcome." "Oh, thank you." " We'll see you soon." " Okay." "Your, uh " " Don't forget it." " Don't want to forget those." "That's a great sweater." "Good night." "Bye." "Good night." "Any other members of the group lurking behind the curtains committing felonious acts?" "Oh, no." "Bill was the last of them." "But I think Mary Pringle went to the bathroom a while ago, and I don't recall seeing her leave, so you may want to knock." "And is that all you have to say?" "Would you like some pie?" "I am starving." "Reid, relax." "You're my third panicky student today." "Look, this blanking you describe is likely anxiety, and I'm told that hypnosis can be a very effective treatment." "Um..." "I-I-I don't think that's it." "It's more like there's just so much to learn and no time." "The volume can be extremely prohibitive, and this first year is a huge adjustment." "How many hours a day are you studying, just give or take?" "I bet if you doubled it " " Doubled it?" " I know it sounds extreme." "No, it's not that it's extreme." "If I double the amount of time I spend studying in a day, then I will go into day two." "I mean, I'm averaging 14 hours." "Oh, you're serious." "Oh, damn it." "I knew this was bad." "Look, um... you know, sometimes we're blocked because our destiny isn't what we think it is." "It's the universe's way of nudging us into another direction." "Not everyone is cut out for med school." "You don't think I have what it takes to be a doctor?" "If your ultimate goal is to help your brother and others afflicted with mental illness, there are plenty of careers out there, other paths you can take." "No, no, no, no." "There are no other paths." "I want to help people this way, not through some bogus social-work crap." "You know, Reid, I don't know you that well, and I'm certainly not telling you to give up." "Just do your best to try to get through this first year and try to take care of yourself in the process, okay?" "It'll get better." "Yeah, well..." "Thanks for the, uh, help." " Morning, Rose." " Good morning." "Well, it seems your downward spiral into degeneracy has yet to make it into the "pine cone."" "Must you be so dramatic, Harold?" "So, um, since you probably have no short-term memory left, clearly, I should remind you I'm still waiting for an explanation for last night's..." "What shall we call it?" "It was nothing." "Nothing?" "I enter our home to find you ingesting an illegal substance with a strange man." "That's hardly nothing." "Bill's chemo is taking a lot out of him." "He's unable to keep anything down because of the nausea." "His oncologist suggested marijuana to increase his appetite." "That's all it was." "And so your smoking pot with him helped him how, exactly?" "I mean, last I checked, you don't share a stomach." "Well, he was scared." "He'd never done it before." "Really, Harold, I took one hit." "Oh, a hit." "So now you know the lingo." "Next we'll be listening to pink floyd over dinner." "Oh, sweetheart, please." "What if Amy or Bright had walked in?" "I was helping out a friend." "We are in a support group." "That's what we do." "We support each other." "I saw no group." "I saw Bill and you and Bill together." "And what, pray tell, makes Bill your personal responsibility?" "Is there no one else in this group that he can get stoned with?" "Harold Abbott... is that jealousy rearing its ugly green head?" "Don't change the subject." "I am sorry for my snafu, truly." "It will not happen again." "And now if the inquisition is over, I'd like to take a shower." "Shower away." "Dr. Ugani, to ICU, please." "H ey." "You're that doctor that pulled me out." "Yeah, I'm one of them." "How you feeling?" "You tell me." "How am I doing?" "Let me take a look at these lacerations." "You didn't have to come down here just to check on me." "They got doctors here." "It is a hospital." "I just wanted to be thorough." "So, let me ask you a question, just out of curiosity." "Have you ever thought about getting professional help?" "I tried." "Got in the car and drove two hours to Denver every day, sat in the folding chair, drank the bad coffee -- didn't work." "Makes me feel like I'm just -- just built this way." "Sometimes it's the easiest way to dull the pain." "I don't know how to stop it." "To stop drinking..." "or stop the pain?" "Both." "Well, maybe... somewhere deep down inside... you wanted to crash that car." "I was " " I was pushing myself so hard." "I just wanted to reach rock bottom." "I just wanted to be in a place... where up was the only place left to go." "Well, if it makes you feel any better, Ed..." "I think you made it." "My wife -- my wife gave me so many ultimatums, I lost count." "It was just a matter of time until she was gonna leave." "Do you really want to get better?" "I want your word." "I don't care how you do it, I don't care where you go, but if you tell me that you are committed to getting yourself sober and you really work at it, then I'll find a way to keep the police out of this." "All right, I promise." " I'll do anything." " I'll be checking upon you, and if you screw this up, I will do something about it." "Wait, hold on a second." "Why are you doing this?" "Why are you putting yourself out?" "You don't even know me, man." "Actually, I kind of do." "Somebody was nice enough to give me a second chance once, so I'm just passing that on to you." "Isn't this place great?" "Beth found it on the web." "I'm obsessed with discovering new restaurants." "I swear, I don't know how people ever ate before the internet." "Okay, that sentence made no sense." "Oh, don't worry." "They don't card here." "No, that's not it." "I just " " I don't really drink." "That's cool." "Oh, my god, you guys, this woman is amazing." "The last time I came here, she taught me how to do the stuff with scarves that I used on Danny that night." "I am telling you, it is better than a pole-dancing class." "You would not take a pole-dancing class." "Why not?" "It's supposed to be good exercise." "I mean, I'd much rather take a class like that to turn Danny on than spend any more time reading the books that teach me how to treat it like a lollipop." "Beth!" " Who's coming with me?" " Me." "I'll sit this one out." "You guys go." "Sure you don't want to dance?" "I can watch the couscous." "Oh, no." "That's okay." "You having fun?" "Absolutely." "This is -- this is great." "It's okay that Beth and Kate came, right?" "I wanted you guys to meet so that we could all hang out more." "Yeah, that's great." "It's good." "So, after this we're gonna go to an italian bakery." "Actually, I don't think I can just 'cause I told Bright I'd meet up with him after dinner." "I think we're gonna try and catch a late movie or something." "Oh, okay." "So, have you talked to Ephram lately?" "No." " Hey, babe." " Hey." " What you making?" " A new recipe for mac and cheese." "It's kind of complicated, actually, 'cause you have to start with a roux, and, um, you can just tell me how it tastes." "So, uh, I went to see Ed Carnahan at the hospital today." "His surgery went really well, but I got to say, I feel for the guy." "I wouldn't get too upset about it." "Ed's been this way for years, and everyone in town kind of knows it." "Yeah, but maybe it wouldn't have to be that way if there was someplace where he could get help, someplace here in town, not two hours away." "You mean like an A.A. in Everwood?" "Yeah, that'll happen right after they cure cancer." "It could happen." "Yeah, this is pretty much a sweep-it-under-the-rugkind of town." "Well, that doesn't mean it's right." "I mean, all that stuff -- all the stuff that nobody's talking about -- it's still happening, so why not just put it all out there and help the people that really need it?" "Well, kind of a small-town mentality, I guess." "They like to keep their personal business personal -- like when, uh, Dr. Abbott's sister moved back home." "She didn't tell anybody about her HIV because she knew what would happen, and she was right." "Everybody freaked out, the practice was ruined, and AIDS is a legitimate illness." "So is addiction." "I know that." "Well, anyway, I talked to a buddy of mine from Carbondale." "He runs the rehab up there, and he's willing to help me get something started back here -- not an actual N.A. or A.A., but using all the best stuff from those, a place where addicts can go and talk and get help and get support from their peers." "So, you want to start a support group for recovering addicts here in Everwood?" "Would you be participating in these meetings or running them or..." "Well, both." "I can't really ask people to share unless I'm willing to do the same." "Wow." "That's a big idea, and it's a good one." "Uh, don't get me wrong -- I'm just not sure that that's good for you." "Don't worry about me." "I'll be fine." "Don't forget, I'm from Los Angeles." "We love airing our dirty laundry out in public." "That's why there's so much smog." "And besides, this town could use a little shaking up." "And worst case, nobody shows up for the meetings." "Um, no, worst case, they do, and then people will find out that you're a recovering addict, and your practice could be ruined, and everything you've been working for could be gone." "Well..." "I guess that's a risk I have to take." "Louise, please call Alicia Siani, have her come in next week." "Okay." "Where is your chair?" "My pilates instructor told me that if I strengthen my core, it will really improve my posture, so..." "Hey, Harold." "Mr. Schmicker." "I didn't realize you were a patient of Dr. Brown's." "Oh, my oncologist is in Denver, so I do the routine stuff here." "Hate the long drives." "Uh, listen, Rose mentioned at lunch that you were upset about the other night." " I'd like to apologize." " Oh, no, no." "When were you at lunch with my wife?" "Yesterday." "Oh, and congratulations on the adoption, by the way." " That's amazing." " Yeah, yeah, it is." "I may know nothing from nothing, but..." "I think Rose's concerns are pretty natural." "I'm sure they'll pass." "I wouldn't worry about it if I were you." "No, no." "No, no." "I'm sure you're right, and thank you for being such a good friend to her." "Two-way street." "Well, it's good to see you again." "Louise." "What a sweet, sweet man." "Oh, please." "If he were any more transparent, he'd be a drinking glass." "Are you blind, woman?" "Bill Schmicker is hot for my wife." "Hello." "Don't "hello" me, traitor." " Veggie crisps." " Hey, hey, hey, hey." "As usual, no idea what you're talking about, and, as usual, I don't really care." "It was bad enough when you were just self-righteous, but you've gone to a whole new level." "You are becoming like this phi beta fembot with your obnoxious friends, your new cause, like every other week -- "Save the tuna!" "Kill the man!"" "Is there a point to this?" "Normally, I wouldn't waste my breath, but you start messing with my girlfriend, it's different." "Hannah told you about the othernight -- unbelievable." "Of course she did." "She was upset." "She was actually looking forward to hanging out with you, trying to get your friendship back on track, and you ambush her with Mary-Kate and Ashley." "It's kate and Beth, and I just wanted them to meet so that we could all hang out." "Didn't work out that way, which is too bad, 'cause they're very cool girls." "Not as cool as Hannah." "They're just different." "Besides, if she was so miserable, she should have talked to me about it, but instead... she decides to talk to you the next day." "I know this might be a foreign concept to you, but maybe she didn't want to sound rude." "This had nothing to do with rudeness." "This is Hannah not wanting to ruffle any feathers." "It's the same thing she does with you and those keggers." "Wait, what?" "What are you talking about?" "She hates going to those things, but does she tell you that?" "No." "Instead, she complains to me, so you keep taking her, she keeps hating it, and the cycle continues." " I thought she liked them." " Why would she?" "Watching you get drunk and prance around like an idiot is annoying." "But that's not the point." "The point is she doesn't speak her mind." "She needs to learn to say what she's feeling and ask for what she wants." "The girl spends half her life pretending like things are okay when they're obviously not." "But maybe you prefer it that way because it works for you." "If I knew she hated those parties, I wouldn't keep taking her." "So... now you know." "Can I have a word with you?" "Can I get out of my car first?" "I just got back from visiting with Ed Carnahan." "He thanked me for leaving the police out of this whole thing." "I was gonna come by your office to talk to you about this." "Well, it's a little late." "The promise has already been made." "I know how it's looks, Andy..." "We're supposed to be working together here, Jake." "We are." "You knew I wanted to talk to him first." "I also knew we were gonna go to the police as soon as we knew he was okay." "I made a judgment call." "Look, I know this guy." "I lived with people just like him when I was up at Carbondale, and putting someone like ed in jail is just a huge waste of time and taxpayer dollars." "He needs treatment." "Trust me, this guy has hit rock bottom." "I had a long conversation with him, and he really wants to get sober." "And he's promised me that he's committed to making it work." "Come on, Jake." "You know as well as I do that a promise from somebody in the throes of addiction is meaningless." "Excuse me?" "Look, I'm not talking about you, but that is part of the problem here." "This case has nothing to do with your life." "I know that." "Then why are you making it your own personal crusade?" "Look, I understand that you feel for Ed, but you are not helping him by protecting him like this." "He has a family." "He deserves a chance." "Jake, if we're gonna work together, you can't fly solo whenever it suits you." "I can when you're wrong." " Here we go." " Thank you." "Why aren't you eating, Harold?" "It's your favorite chicken recipe -- honey mustard." "So, what's Bill's favorite dish, chicken pot pie?" "Who's Bill?" " Your mother's boyfriend." " Oh, for heaven's sake." "You do realize he's desperately in love with you, don't you?" "Mom has a boyfriend?" "Bill " " Bill Schmicker." "Sounds like something you'd lance." "Anyway, they'll probably be running off together any day now, probably to Jamaica." "It's fine, I am more than capable of raising our adopted child on my own." "I'm so confused right now." "He is not in love with me." "You simply don't understand what a support group is about." "Oh yes, of course." "It's all about the support group." "So why don't you enlighten me?" "No, I don't think I will." "If you'll excuse me, I seem to have lost my appetite." "Dad..." "It's fine." "Eat." "The chicken's divine." "So, what does our terminally ineffectually youth have planned for this evening?" "Beth and I are gonna go see a classic japanese movie at the Art House." "Oh, that sounds like fun." "Or, wait, more like awful." "Bright and I are going to a party at..." "Dirk's?" "Yeah, Dirk's, but we don't have to go if you don't want." "Why wouldn't we go?" "I don't know." "I just thought maybe you wouldn't be into it." "What's going on?" "Nothing." "Just Amy was nice enough to tell me how much you hated parties." "I'd rather you'd have told me instead of her." "What?" "Good move, brother." "Oh, shut your trap." " Why would you tell him that?" " Well, it's true, isn't it?" "My relationship with Bright is none of your business." "I've had to hear about your relationship with Bright every day for the past year, so technically, that makes me a part of it." "I'm sorry, I didn't know it was such a burden." "It's not." "Juste maybe you should talk about something that involves me once in a while, like how you had a horrible time with my friends the other night." "He didn't have to tell me." "I knew." " You knew?" " Yes." "You should say what's on your mind once in a while." "We could avoid all this drama." "Is this how you feel?" "No." "I mean... well, kind of." "Not the way she's saying it, though." "You want to know what I'm feeling?" "Okay." "I hate couscous, your friends are ridiculous, and the way you act around them is totally false, and that Beth girl is a total bitch." "Sorry, Dr. Abbott." "Wow." "You're actually expressing a real feeling, and it was negative." "We should throw a party." " She doesn't like parties." " Bright." "I don't " " I don't know why I said that." "Thank you for dinner." "I'm just going." " Hannah, wait." "Nice move." " You started it." "God." ""Something you'd lance" " "I thought she'd at least chuckle." "Perhaps it was my delivery." "Let it go, dad." "Hey." "Pancake?" "I think Jake is losing his mind." "I'll take that as a "no."" "He's not crazy." "He's just stupid." "So, you know already?" "I just found out." "We had a little fight about it, actually, and do not call that counselor again." "I can't believe that he told you." "This must mean that he's really going through with it." " What are you talking about?" " What are you talking about?" "I asked you first." "Jake wants to start a support group for addicts here in Everwood." "Really?" "Wow." "That's new." "You know what will happen to him if he does that." "The practice will go down." "Everybody will start talking about him the same way they talked about you when you first got here." "Ahh, the memories." "Maybe if you told him how difficult that was for you, he'd rethink this." "He really listens to you, Andy." "He trusts you." "He has a funny way of showing it." "What does that mean?" "What happened with you guys?" "Nothing." "Look, I'd really like to help you out here, but it's just not my place." "Whatever you're fighting about, can't you put it on the back burner?" "It's not that." "Look, don't get me wrong." "I'm not your boyfriend's biggest fan right now, but, actually, I think it's a good idea." " You do?" " Yeah, I do." "The town will be up in arms about it for 20 minutes, and then they'll move on." "But... what if they don't?" "Jake's still recovering." "If people turn on him, what if he can't handle it?" "It'll be fine." "The restaurant's doing great now, so you have nothing to worry about financially." "I'm not worried about the money." "What are you worried about?" "I know that Jake is fine with people knowing his secrets." "That's what's so great about him." "He's open, but " "But what?" "I just hate it when people know my business." "Everything that happened with Carl was embarrassing enough, and now I'll be Nina, that poor lady who married a gay guy, and now she's shacked up with a druggie." "I know." "I'm a horrible person." "Well, you can't stop people from talking, but you don't have to care, and the only reason you would is if, deep down, you agree with them." "Hand me the syrup." "Thank you so much." "Hope to see you again." "Thank you." "Thank you for sharing." "Thank you so much." "Adele, you have to take the bundt cake." "Please, just take it home to Ira." "Ira's gut is the size of a 747." "Trust me, he does not need it." "Thanks so much for hosting today, Bill." "Oh, please." "All I did was buy some mixed nuts." "Besides, you've hosted twice already." " Well, I should go." " Are you sure?" "'Cause I thought maybe you'd want to stay for a while and smoke with me." "It's just -- it helped so much the other night." "I'm sure you got the hang of it now." "Well, I just " "I want you to know that you've made all this so much easier for me." "Your support and understanding..." "I don't know where I'd be without you." "Oh, I'm sure you'd be just fine." "But I'm glad to help." "Thank you." "What are you doing?" "I am a happily married woman." "Rose, I just " " I-I thought " "Shame on you, Bill Schmicker." "Oh, hey." "Uh, come on in." "I'm pretty sure Beth isn't hiding in the closet." "I'm really sorry, Amy." "You have nothing to apologize for." "I shouldn't have said those things about your friends." "I just lost my temper." "No, I'm glad you did." "I wish you'd do it more often." "Really?" "Yeah." "We're not real best friends if we're afraid to talk to each other." "I know." "I just " " I hate fighting with you, and I feel like that's all we've been doing lately." "Try me." "Try you?" "Yeah." "Let me know what you really think." "You can give me your opinion without it turning into a fight." "Like, what -- what do you think of Beth, really?" "Okay, um..." "All right, well, she isn't really a bitch, but she can be kind of annoying, like the way she monopolizes the conversation, plus she's a little braggy." "I know, she comes across like that when you first meet her, but she's actually really cool -- not that you have to like her, 'cause you definitely don't." "Totally respect that." "So, what else?" "Okay, well... here's another thing that we definitely disagree on." "Go ahead." "I don't think it's very nice what you're doing to Ephram." "What do you think I'm doing to Ephram?" "I don't know." "I mean, well, you're kind of stringing him along, aren't you?" "You basically told him to wait around for who knows how long, except from what I can tell, you don't have any plans on getting back together with him, and every time I'm over there, I just feel so bad." "Okay, this is something we actually don't need to be talking about." "You told me I should be honest." "No, Hannah, this isn't you being honest." "This is you having an agenda." "You obviously want me and Ephram to get back together." "I do not care about that." "I just want you to be fair to him." "If you're not gonna get back together, then tell him." "Let him move on with his life." "I'm not stopping him from doing that." "Hannah... you don't get it." "I don't want to fight about this, so let's just drop it, okay?" "I see." "So, uh, you can interfere in my relationship with Bright, but I can't say anything about the two of you." "The difference is, Hannah, Ephram and I aren't dating anymore." "No, the difference is you want to run our friendship the same way you run your relationship with Ephram -- all on your terms." "Honestly, I'm just not into it anymore." "Watch your step." "Thank you, Rose." "Well, Harold, you were right." "Obviously, I'm not surprised, but about what, exactly?" "Bill Schmicker." "His intentions were less than virtuous." "He tried to kiss me." "Oh, that's it." "Where are the car keys?" "Oh, oh, cancer or no, I am going over there to give that lothario a what for." "Oh, no need, dear." "Thank you for offering to defend my honor, but I took care of it." "I was so stupid." "I was just trying to be a friend to the man." "No, you are not stupid." "You are a beautiful, magnificent, vibrant woman." "Truly, any man worth his salt would want you." "That's why I suspected Bill Schmicker right from the get-go." "Thank you, dear." "I must admit, after all these years," "I did rather enjoy seeing you a little jealous again, even if you continued to deny it." "I was jealous, Rose." "Not for the reasons you think." "I never truly thought you'd have an affair with the man." "I'm confident that you will always be mine, drug habit and all." "No, I-I was hurt that you were more comfortable sharing your feelings with a stranger instead of with me." " But that's what the group is all about." " Not the cancer." "I know that you told Bill that you were apprehensive about the adoption." "Honey, why didn't you tell me?" "Oh, I don't know." "You were always so on the fence about the adoption at the beginning." "I guess I just thought if I showed any hesitation or worry, you might back out." "That's not the way it works in this marriage." "I mean, sometimes you are the beacon of strength, other times I'm the buoy that keeps us afloat, but we are in this together." "There is nothing that you can't tell me." "So, what is it, sweetheart?" "Why are you suddenly having concerns?" "I'm afraid my cancer's gonna ruin our chances of adoption." "It must have crossed your mind." " It has." " Yeah?" "But do you really think they're gonna give a child to someone who's less than a year out of chemotherapy?" "Honestly..." "I think any child would be blessed to have you as a mother." "I'm sure that the agency recognizes that, and I think we'll be fine." " Really?" " Really." "You called the cops." " Yes, I did." " Why?" "I was trying to save this guy, and now you've ruined his life." "He's going to jail for 72 hours, Jake." "If he really wants to get help, he can still do that." "Maybe you should get him to join your support group." "How do you know about that?" "Oh, that's right." "I tell Nina something, she goes running to you." "Nothing changes that." " Listen " " No, no, you listen." "I already know she doesn't want me to do it, so you can save your breath, 'cause I'm not changing my mind on this." "Good." "I don't think you should." "I think it's a great idea." "W-what are you doing?" "What is this, some kind of Andy Brown neurosurgeon mind game?" "Yes, I'm gonna bring you downby agreeing with you." "It's evil but effective." "Look, I'm being straight with you, Jake." "I support the idea, and I told Nina the same thing." " Really?" " Yeah." "It's a 3-doctor town." "We got to look out for each other." "Well, what do you think about me asking the town hall to use their space?" "I think it's a waste of time." "That's what I figured, too, but my office isn't big enough." "Mine is." "Everwood is not gonna like this." "Nope, but it's been kind of quiet around here anyway." "It's time to shake things up a little bit." "Hey, you're still bringing the pastries on thursday, right?" "Yeah, you got it." "Hey, Andy... thank you."
