"Now listen I gotta get back to this meeting." "I understand that, but she wasn't just talking about academics." "I get that, and we'll deal with it." "Honey, she thinks that he may have... she thinks that he may have Asperger's." "Asperger's?" "Like autism?" "Look, Max is not" "It's high-functioning autism." "A lot of people with Asperger's..." "Max is not autistic." "Live very productive lives, Adam." "Kristina, I've seen autistic kids." "The Lessings' kid with the hand flapping" "She was saying that when she was with him, she saw certain patterns." "He was having a very bad day." "And those tests that she gave to him were ridiculous." "Adam, that's not true." "She didn't connect with him at all." "You know how important it is for him to" "She said that if we get him the right tools to learn" "That's what I said, I tutor." "She wasn't talking about a tutor." "Well, I'm not sending him to special ed." "There is something wrong with our baby." "It's not just, it's not just the academics, okay?" "It's not" "It's not just the biting, or the pirate costume, or the fear of fire, or the--the tantrums." "It's everything." "Please don't make me be alone with--with this." "I don't want to-- come here." "All right?" "It's okay." "Max." "Hey, Max." "You forgot your book bag." "Do you want me to hang it up in the hallway for you?" "Hey, Max." "Max, that, that kid just said hello to you." "Max, if you don't say hello back, he might think that you're being rude." "Okay." "Did you hear him say hello?" "Uh-huh." "Max." "Max." "Max." "I love you." "We just need to bring in-- it's, like, the home stretch." "We need to just bring in a couple more cans here, a couple more-- oh, oh, excuse me." "Adam, hey." "Hey, Paul." "Great running into you." "Listen, this is a little uncomfortable." "Uh, the board of the little league had a meeting last night." "Uh, the consensus was is that maybe it might be better if you stepped aside." "Let someone else coach the rest of the season." "Jordan Shefranick's dad's able to step in." "Oh, okay." "And Adam, they also asked me to tell you that you can't be present at future games." "Uh, they've had some complaints from some parents." "Uh, apparently the umpire's filing a lawsuit." "I'm really sorry, Adam." "It was a bad call." "Yeah." "Yeah, thanks for that." "Sorry, I couldn't get back to the office, so you make the call and I'll talk to you tomorrow morning." "Okay, bye." "Hey." "Hi." "You're home early." "No, I had this meeting over at Shattuck and then Crosby called freaking out about some emergency that couldn't wait." "Uh, Drew didn't happen to come by, did he?" "Here?" "Yeah." "No." "Oh, I got a weird call from the school." "Yeah?" "I don't know." "I'm just trying not to panic." "I'm sure it's nothing, it's just" "Adam, I am in a real pickle, man." "Katie already tried to move up the date." "You gotta get me out of this engagement." "Engagement?" "Oh, you're judgmental?" "You and Katie got engaged?" "Whoa, what?" "Crosby and Katie got engaged." "Okay, this is about the frozen sperm thing." "I'm sorry, the what?" "How do you know that?" "Is there not any confidential male guy stuff anymore?" "No, I don't think so." "Hi, crazy lady who yells at her sister from a date." "Fine." "I may have overreacted a little bit." "Maybe?" "What was that about?" "Why are you here?" "Why is everyone here?" "Because this is Adam and Crosby time." "I didn't invite them." "Kristina's picking up Sydney from school for us." "Joel has a dental thing, and Sydney doesn't like me very much anyway, so" "That's not true." "She loves you." "Oh, she openly prefers Joel, and that is fine, because I am a good lawyer and he is a good father." "So she will be like a relative of mine." "See, I can, I can manage this." "I can lower my expectations." "Hold that thought." "Wait, so are we saying we lost Drew?" "I don't know what happened, okay?" "It might have something to do with the fact that he walked in on me and Jim half naked last night." "You slept with Jim?" "Good for you." "What happened to him being a fat, balding barta?" "I warmed to him." "How many days has she been home?" "Get them out of here." "Hello." "Hi, Seth." "Seth, there's a winner." "No." "She was screaming at me on the phone." "What?" "He's with you?" "What are you talking about?" "Since when?" "Yes, I'm upset." "Seth, whatever you do, do not let him out of your sight, do you hear me?" "I am on my way." "I'm getting in the car right now, good-bye." "He's in mother-freakin' Fresno." "Uh, Sarah." "Sarah." "Why don't I ride with you?" "Thanks." "I'll do this." "Hey, your mom's here." "Drew, honey." "Hey." "Hey." "Uh, it's just not a real good time right now." "I mean, I got these road dates that might come up and it's" "It's okay." "You all right?" "Is your family good?" "Thanks for calling, Seth." "Yeah." "See you soon, champ." "You know, maybe we can take in a game or something." "Yeah." "Drew." "Drew, come on, let's go." "Hey." "Hey." "Hey." "Hey." "Oh, honey." "You..." "Deserve a father." "You deserve a great father." "And I shouldn't have married him." "And I'm really sorry." "Oh, look at you." "Look at you." "You're almost a man." "When did that happen?" "For what it's worth, you have me." "I'm not going anywhere." "And I'm really sorry, but that's gonna have to be enough, okay?" "Okay."
