Shh. Oh, shh.
Look what I found.
You're a natural.
Hi.
Just got off with the FBI.
No abductions, no missing persons.
Oh.
We're keeping her, right?
I mean, someone left her here for us.
Yeah?
You want to stay over?
My luggage is in the car.
Look, this... if we're gonna be...
we can't just...
We don't really know each other.
Okay.
What do I need to know?
Uh, I've been...
I've been walking in my sleep.
I was taking medication.
So I tossed my pills.
I figured that'd be the end of it, but then I...
I grabbed Patti Levin...
and I took her to a cabin.
And when I woke up...
I tried to let her go, but she wouldn't let me.
And she killed herself.
So I called your brother Matt
and we... we buried her.
And nobody else knows.
And I smoke.
I hire prostitutes to shoot me.
I lied to you about my gun.
I won't ever do that again. I'm sorry.
It's okay.
It's okay?
It's okay.
Do I have to say something crazy now?
It's okay.
_
Do you know whose baby that is?
Sorry?
Do you know whose baby that is?
She's mine.
Hey, hey, hey. Hey.
What's going on?
Hello.
Hell...
one second.
Hey, I'm on my way home.
The old washer is busted, so I had to be at the laund...
What? No.
You said 11:00.
Oh, shit. Look, I'm sorry.
I love... Fuck.
- I swear to God I thought you said 11:00. - It's okay.
- Here, give her. - I've got to fix that fucking washing machine.
Kevin, it's okay. Here.
Three loads at the laundromat.
You're gonna do all the talking, right?
You'll be great. Just tell them it felt like it was meant to be.
Felt like it was meant to be. Felt like it was meant to be.
- You can put it in your own words. - I got it.
Deep breath. Clear it out, man.
Good.
Let's go make a family.
She was on your porch?
No, it was Kevin's porch. I was just the one...
- Was there a note? - Uh-uh. It was just her in her car seat.
- So no idea of who left her there? - No.
Kevin was the chief of police, so we assumed...
You're a cop?
I was. I took a leave
so I could help with the baby.
It felt like it was meant to be.
Any other kids?
My daughter lives with us.
She's great with the baby.
My children were both departures.
- Sorry to hear that. - Thank you.
Any other relatives in the area?
Um, my dad lives nearby.
He's not really in the, you know.
Not really what?
He's in a psychiatric facility.
But he's not dangerous or anything.
- He's... - No.
Marital status?
- Well, we live together. - We were both previously married.
- We're committed, obviously. - We love each other.
- Very, very much. - Yeah.
In the event of a separation, who would take care of the child?
- We're not going to separate. - But if you did.
We're not.
We're not.
Would you like to adopt another child?
We want this one.
In addition to this one.
Um...
One month old, adorable.
He's white, though.
I'm sorry, no. We're... we're good.
- Yeah, we're pretty... - Yeah.
Name of the child?
Lily with one L.
Lily with one L.
Now, I want you to take this to any of the judges down the hall.
The wait shouldn't be too bad.
So...
Congratulations.
She's all yours.
She's all ours.
We got you.
Fuck!
You see a tag on this?
I think it's $17.95. Cool?
What?
I'll take that, too.
Please turn off the vehicle, sir.
There's a body in the back of my truck.
You're my sister. Did you know that?
We're sisters. See?
What's she wearing?
It was in the box that your brother sent.
Check it out.
Aw, that was sweet of him.
Hi. You want to go for a walk with us?
Um, no. I'm gonna meet a friend for coffee.
Is he cute?
Not as cute as he used to be.
Remember, we have dinner at 7:00.
Dad's gonna wear a sport coat and everything, so get ready to celebrate.
Oh, I'm ready.
- Thank you. - Anything else I can get you?
Sorry, it's not for me.
Waiting for someone who's just 20 minutes late.
Okay.
Looking good, Billy Ray.
Feeling good, Louis.
- Sorry, I'm sick. - Oh.
I don't want to infect you.
That sucks.
I ordered you a cheeseburger.
Thank you.
Um, school good?
It's August.
It's August.
- You're right. - Yeah.
Um, Dad and Nora adopted the baby.
Wow.
They still calling it Lily?
Yeah, you don't like that?
Who cares what I like?
I care.
I mean, you gave her to us.
Did you tell Dad?
No.
- Jill, did you? - No.
You can't tell Dad.
I promised you that I wouldn't.
You know, you should really just call him sometime.
- He worries about you. - We're not starting that again, Jill.
- Why are you so angry? - I'm not. I'm not angry.
Well, can I just tell him that I know you're okay?
No, Jill, you can't.
Why not?
'Cause nobody's okay.
I am.
And so is Dad and Nora.
We're all okay.
That's good for you.
You deserve that.
One big, happy family.
Well, you can be a part of it.
I mean, anytime.
I'm sorry.
She, um...
she wanted me to give this to you.
I love you.
I love you, too.
Hello.
Nora, Mike from Century.
- Are you sitting down? - No, I'm standing.
There's an offer on your house. 2.7.
- Million? - Yeah, million.
But we listed it for 600,000.
- Why would they... - It's a preemptive bid.
Listen, they put it on a clock.
We have until end of day to respond.
So I'm saying yes, yes?
Nora?
Why are you offering me four times what I'm asking for my house?
Your residence has been flagged as a highly desirable property
by a number of separate institutions.
What's your institution?
- We're from MIT. - Good school.
It is, thank you.
We're spearheading a research project
and the university is financing the grant.
- To buy my house? - Yes.
