"Previously on "Back to you"..." "You know, well I think, we need a little talk about the whole Gracie situation." "Oh, just keep your voice down." "I'm sick of this." "Sick of the... the lying and the secrets." "Kelly, it's time." "Really?" "Tomorrow?" "If you leave..." "I will hunt you down, and kill you." "I'm not going anywhere." " Okay." " Okay, mum, see ya." "You have your lunch?" "Homework?" "Good." "You know, how much I love you?" "Mum, I gotta go." "Okay, see ya after school." "Gracie, wait, wait, wait." "I want you to know something." "No one will ever, ever, EVER love you as much as I do." "Are you dropping me off or putting a curse on me?" "You are so smart." "Oh, you're my big girl." " What a big girl you are." "Okay." " Mum, I can't be late." "Oh, no, you're gonna be great." "You are gonna be great." "Go." "Fly away." "And remember, cookie bear." "Make good choices!" "That's my nanny." "Morning, gals and pals." "Hey." "Was he there when you came in?" "Jup." " Hahaha." " Who?" "Gerald, the security guy." "What'd he give ya?" "A high-five and a bear hug." "A high-five, a bear hug and a fist bump." "Damn, a triple." "What are you guys talking about?" "Gerald, the security guy." "Hell, the one who's downstairs who always gives you a hug when you come in." "He does?" "He's never hugged you?" "Not, that I can remember." "Oh, you'd remember." "It's a warm safe place in a big angry world." "Don't take it personally, Gary." "I'm sure he's not hugging everybody." "High-five..." "Chest bop... and when he hugged me, I think my feet came off the ground a litte bit." "So, is Kelly here yet?" "No, not yet." "And we have a lot to cover." "I'm not gonna be here next week." "Oh, gosh, Ryan." "I am so sorry." "Guess, we all saw this coming." "I'm not getting fired." "Of course not." "You're top drawer." "I'm going to the big mid-west regional news directors conference." "Five days, four nights, all expenses paid." "Newsin' and boozin' in Cinci." "Sin City?" "Man, I'd love to go to Vegas." "No, Cinci." "Cincinnati." "200 news directors, slamming decories in the Albert Street Hotel, with entertainment provided by all of the living ink spots." "The ink spots." "I used to know all their names." "So did they." "Hey, Kell." "What did Ger give you?" "A bear hug, a "Hey, pretty lady", and then we did the hustle together." "Hi." "Hi." "Listen, I feel really good about the decision we made last night." "Yeah." "So, look, I... figured, Grace would wanna know little about her family, so... there's a picture of my mother Mary, and this is aunt Apple." "She's from the rougher side of the family, as you can tell by the bumper car, she's repairing." "And, uh,..." "Oh, look, look, look, here, here is the darling side of the family." "That's my uncle Trip, cousin Taffy, and this is her dog Waynescott." "A little pushed that nose." "I may better let briefing on this." "With your cousin or the dog?" "Maybe both." "Now that you mention it." "As much as I'm enjoying this little tour of what I hope are recessive genes." " We do have a news cast to fulfill." " Right." "I 'm just so excited, there was hope maybe we could go, pick her up together at school this afternoon." "Oh, you know what?" "She has clarinet and pottery today." "I really don't want her to miss those." "Oh, well, well, those are important, certainly." "In case, somebody calls her band geek..." "(source interrupted) ... so do I them." "(source interrupted)" "No." "No, no, no." "I just meant, we'll tell her tonight." "That way, both of us will have time to, to go through these." "What are these for?" "Well, it's just such a delicate subject." "I thought, we could use some advice on how to break it to her." "Break it to her?" "You only break bad news to somebody." "That's why you never get breaking news "the circus is in town"." "No, I-i just think it would be wise if we anticipate what Gracie may be feeling." "I see." ""Train wreck of the soul"" "By the author of "Damaged for life"." " "Damaged for life"?" " Ok." "Maybe those books aren't a good idea, but I think we should... we have to go in there with something more than just like the smile... and a bunch of pictures that Diane Arbus has put in her "too creepy" pile." "What exactly are you saying?" "No, I don't know." "I just feel like we need help." "Maybe we should see a therapist." "A therapist?" " Is that really necessary?" " Chuck." "We get one shot at telling Gracie." "That's why I wanna make sure we do it right." "Maybe we could just read her from "Single  Scared"." " Stupid cashier." "Must have put the wrong book in my bag." " Yeah?" "Did she highlight it for you too?"

"Straight home tonight, okay?" "Chuck and Kelly." " It is so nice to meet you." " Oh, thank you." "Nice to meet you." " I'm Sandra Jenkings." " Lovely to see you." " Come, come." " Thank you." "Thanks for seeing us on such short notice." "Well, it was important, so I changed things around a bit." "Yes, thank you." "Little..." "little perks of local celebrity." "Uhm, she's a therapist." "Not a metro d (?" ")." "I'm sure, who we are means nothing to her." "Well, actually, I'm a big fan of you both." "Oh, thank you so much." "So... what can I help you with?" "Well... okay, uhm, absolutely... nobody knows this." "It feels strange, saying it out loud for the first time." "It's alright." "Just take your time." "Chuck and I are not in a relationship." "but we did have one night together, and that night I became pregnant." "And she just told me very recently." "Well, it's not uncommon for women to take some time to think about this before she tells her partner." " Thank you." " Uh-huh." "But you don't look very far along." "Hah!" "Oh, oh, I'm not pregnant now." "I already had her." "How old is the baby?" "She is in fifth grade." "Okay, we're getting a little locked the track." "The point is, Gracie doesn't know that Chuck is her dad and we feel it's time that she did, and we just wanted to know the best way to tell her." "Mhm, I think you can be direct and honest with her, as long as she understands, that she is in a safe, loving environment." "Are you two on good terms?" " Yeah." " Yeah." "And you're not together because?" "Life's too short." "Sense of humor is helpful." "So many unmarried parents have such anger towards each other." " Well, that's not a problem here." " No." "Just outa curiousity, Kelly, why did you take so long to tell him?" "Oh, he wasn't ready." "She never gave me the chance." "What?" "He wasn't even in town." "He was on the other side of the country." "Just, where, as you know, there are no telephones." "Yes, like you would have come running back to Pittsburgh, had I told you." "Well, we'll never no, will we?" "He wasn't ready." "Because she never gave me the cha" "Look, look." "I'm not gonna get worked up about this, but you run behind that floozy excuse, every time this subject comes up." "I missed the first ten years of my daughter's life." "Her first words... her first snowman... her first school play..." "I have this all on video." "And I'm not in any of it." "I have no idea, what any of that felt like." "You took that away from me and there is no excuse for that." "Wow..." "I didn't know that this was all in there." "Actually, I did." "I got admit, it feels kinda good to get it all out." "And you're sure it's all out?" "Oh, yeah." "When it's atha time to go, I let it go." "By the way, a father lets go of his little girl's hand on her first day of school." "Or the back of her bike, on her first solo trip down the driveway." "I have all this." "Well, this sucks." "What's the matter?" "I was just upstairs for the meeting with the station manager." "She says, I can't go to Cincinnati." "It's not in the budget this year." "Man, that really chaps my hide." "She has no idea, how important these conventions are." "The connections... the-the networking..." "Plus there's a QA about the effects of the internet on news coverage, hosted by an Anderson Cooper look-a-like." "Look, if you really wanna go to this thing, you gotta think like management." "She says, it's gonna cost too much to send you?" "You gotta show her, that by you going she'll actually save money." "I don't know any of that." "But there's an indoor pool with a swim-up sunday bar." "Wow, now I wanna go." "Okay, right-on, I'll talk to her." "Thanks, Marsh." "I don't get it." "What?" "Gerald won't hug me, but he's got no problem wrapping his arms around Bettina, who's patient zero for like three different diseases." "Just deal." "What?" "Well, sometimes you can be a little short with people." "Yeah, that's true." "Dumb theory." "Never mind." "No!" "No, no, no." "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry." "Go on." "I-i..." "I wanna know." "Oh, I don't know." "I'm not so comfortable criticizing a friend." "No, if I'm giving off some kind of a vibe that keeps people from hugging me then... as my friends, you should tell me." "Well, when I met you, I actually thought you were" " a litte mean." " Totally mean." "Very mean!" " And cold." " Like a fish." "A cold arrogant fish." " Really?" "I never thought it myself." " And a know-it-all." "Oh, the worst!" "I'm Gary, I went to Ball State." "I'm a genius." " Come on, now." "I don't go around saying..." " And, and, no offense, but you have a reputation for being a little, what's the word?" " Cheap!" " Oh!" "Yeah, you ever seen him pretend to read first wallet when the check comes?" "It's like he has dinosaur arms." "Okay, that's enough!" "There it is." "There's the temper." "He's gonna blow!" "Guys!" "Please lower your voice, Gary." "And then the silent treatment." "Okay, now you're being mean." "Whoa, we're just trying to help." "Yeah, do you know how hard it was for us to see those things about you?" "Right, I'm sorry." "I asked you to do something tough." "And you did it." "You we're great." "We we're, weren't we?" "I was just following your lead, buddy." "Come here." "All about that, Kelly." "50 years as a meter maid." "I bet, she's seen a lot of jay." "Ooh, think we should put a nickel in that joke, Chuck, it's about to expire." "Okay, that's all for us, Pittsburgh at Channel 9 News." "We'll see you at 11 p.m." " See ya then." " Okay." "We're clear!" "So, what time you want me to come over?" "For what?" "What do you mean "for what"?" "To tell her!" "Oh, right." "After your little tantrum, I don't think so." "Don't you walk away from me!" "We are most certainly going to... tell her!" "Alright?" "I'm sorry, but you raged at me in that therapist's office for an hour" "Do we really wanna expose her to that?" "I got it all out!" "You're screaming." "That was the last of it." "Listen," "I think, we need to schedule a few more sessions with Dr. Jenkins to make sure that you have completely del" "I know, what you're doing here, Kelly." "You're throwing up road blocks because you don't wanna tell Gracie" " and ever did!" " That is not true!" "I am not throwing up road blocks." "Yes, you are." "You're doing everything you can to stop this" "You don't get it, do you?" "I still have feelings for you." "What?" "I don't know." "That session... it just..." "You know, ever since you came back, I have just been... making up a list of reasons why I should hate you." "And then... you actually... expressed your feelings and..." "What?" "I don't know, I find out\that you're a caring and passionate man who just wants his daughter in his life." "And I'm running out of reasons, why I don't want you in mine." "Kelly, I..." "It's alright, it's just... a little fantasy of..." "I mean, you don't wanna settle down, and you shouldn't!" "Because that's not who you are." "I just was hoping I would get over you before we told Gracie." " I don't know what to say." " You don't have to say anything." "And you know what?" "I'm not gonna make you wait to tell her" " because of me." "Because" " No." "No, I..." "I can wait a little longer if you like." "Really?" "Of course." "Thanks, Chuck." "Thanks for being so understanding." "Okay... so... guess I should go." "Hey, Kelly." "How'd it go with management?" "Great!" "So, someone's on the way to Cinci-naughty." "No." "Why?" "What happened?" "Well, turns out it has nothing to do with budget cut." "She told me, I deserve to go but she's just not comfortable losing me for a week." "She said, she relies on me too much." "Oh, wipe that grin off your face, you simpleton." "You fell with the oldest trick in the book." "Classic female manipulation." "They appeal to your ego with a little insincere flattering." "They just something throw you off track to get their... dammit!" "Good night, Gerald." "You're beautiful." "A beautiful man." "Now we go on." "Straight home, Marsh." "Hey!" "You're treatin' that lady right?" "Sure am." "Just don't tell my wife." "Come on." "What up, dog?" "Good night." "Okay..." "What is going on?" "You hug every single person that walks through here." "Why not me?" "Is it... is it because you think I'm cold?" "I've been told, I come off a little cold." "You don't even remember me, do you?" "What do you mean?" "Marshall elementary school?" "You went to Marshall?" "Mhm, I played Kenickie in the sixth grade production of "Grease"." "You reviewed it for the school paper." "Said my performance was stilted and pandered shamelessly to kindergardners." "You're Jerry Williams?" "You said that I was, quote, "Greased Frightening"." "And that I should be "Hopelessly Demoted"." "And that she was "Summer Not Lovin' Me"." "It wasn't even a review, man." "It was just an excuse for a series of puns." ""You're The One That I Don't Want"." "Gerald, I am so sorry." "You crushed my spirit, man." "I had no idea." "I just feel terrible." "What... what can I do to make it up to you?" "Come see my play." "You're in a play?" "Yeah, it's a one-man-show." "Wrote it myself." "It's 'bout a security guard at the gates of heaven." "It's called..." ""I'm gonna have to look in that bag."" "Wow, that sounds terrific, Gerald." "Of course, I'll come." "Oh man, that's great." "That's great." " Alright, see ya." " Alright." "Hey, not so fast, you." "Come on." "Really?" "Yeah." "Come on." "There you go." "Not yet." "Just put a litte more glue on Neptune and there." "Perfect!" "Wow!" "Well... she built this project all by herself." "You did." "But I mean, if somebody asks you." " I." " Attagirl!" "There you go." "Uh, Gracie." "Can you go upstairs for a minute, honey?" "Chuck's here." "I have to talk to him." "Okay." "I remember, no tv, no internet, no video." "Great." "I'll just go to my room and try on some ?" "bras?" "." "Yeah." "Hey, Chuck." "What are you doing here?" "I've been thinking about what you've said." "You have?" "Yeah." "And I love you too." "I didn't realize it till you told me how you felt." "It wasn't all a dream." "Tell me what you said again." "I said that you're a very caring... and passio-- oh forget it." "I barely got through the first time." "I knew it." "You played me." "Horrible, horrible woman." "Just to keep Gracie from finding out." " Is there nothing you won't do to" " Okay!" "I lied." "But it's just because..." "I'm..." " dying." "I didn't wanna" " Enough!" "Enough!" "Will you tell her now?" "Okay, fine!" " Really?" " Yes." "Enough of excuses." "You're here, she's here." "We'll just..." " do it." " Okay." "Oh, my god." "Alright, now I'm nervous." "You know, in one minute, all our lives are gonna completely change." "Just breathe." "It's gonna be okay." "She's gonna remember this moment for the rest of her life." "She's gonna tell her children about it." "Our grandchildren!" "How weird is that?" "Huh?" " Cart my hearse," " Kelly." "Kelly, you're gonna be alright." " I'm here for you." " Okay." "Okay." "Gracie, can you come down here, honey?" " Coming." " Okay." "Okay, this is it." "I'll be your rock." "Hi, Chuck." "Hi, Gracie." "Gracie..." "Chuck?" "Ah, what happened?" "You fainted." "You crushed my universe." "You told her?" "Well, you'd landed on her project." "Good." "That wasn't the reaction, I was hoping for." "Are you okay?" "Fine, although... there's a spaceship that's boldly gone where no man's gone before." "Are you sure, you're okay?" "Yeah, I'm fine." "I'm fine." "Hi, Gracie." "Hi." "What didn't you tell me?" "Well, honey." "There's something we need to talk to you about." "It's kinda hard." "It's not bad!" "It's about Chuck." "I know, he is." "You do?" "Chuck's always here." "You guys are always fighting." "You're totally girlfriend and boyfriend." " Oh, no, no." "No, no, no." " Oh, that's not..." "No, Chuck's not my boyfriend." "Oh, that's too bad." "I kinda like him." "Well, that's good, honey, because... he's your father." ":" "Transcript: fatbrat :" "Welcome to heaven!" "Welco" "Mama?" "Is that you, mama?" "It's me, Gerald!" "Look, I'm a security guard at heaven's gate." "Oh, there are so many things I wanted to talk to you about." "But first," "I've gotta look in that bag." "Mama?" "What's this in that bag?" "So heavy!" "Sit down."
