Would You Rather

You're available to start right away?

Yes.

- I'm not really seeing a lot of restaurant experience

on the, uh, résumé.

- I've always had, um, summer jobs,

but, yeah, mostly retail.

- So did you drop out of school, or...

Why'd you come all the way back here?

Oh, no, um...

Well, this is my home,

and there was an accident,

so I have to take care of my brother.

- Well, I'll tell you what I can do, um...

I'll talk to the owner.

I know they were looking for, uh,

waitstaff with experience, but...

obviously you're smart, so maybe they'll,

um, work with you, so...

- Sure, that'd be– that'd be great.

- Maybe you could do– host, if nothing else.

Oh, sure, definitely.

- Okay, I mean, I can't promise anything, but...

- Oh, no, yeah. - Maybe.

I'll let you know by the end of the day.

- Thank you so much. Nice to meet you.

Nice meeting you.

- I can make you some eggs if you want.

Yeah, I can make 'em too.

- I'm gonna go back to the clinic

for a little while today.

Will you be okay here alone?

Something wrong?

Dr. Barden thinks that

he can help us cut some of the costs.

How?

I...I have no idea,

but I'll find out.

- So there'll probably be some of this...yeah?

Yeah, probably.

Thank you.

Oh, thank you.

Thank you both.

Um, Dr. Barden?

The nurse said that I–

Of course, come in.

Iris, good to see you.

Hi.

- Iris, Shepard Lambrick.

Iris.

Dr. Barden's told me much about you.

- Iris, please, have a seat. Shepard.

So...

Your brother.

He's quite sick, correct?

You can help him?

- Well, let's just say that my foundation

has the ability to improve his situation.

- The Lambricks have funded the building of clinics

all over the world,

Haiti, Afghanistan...

Schools too.

- Well, my brother doesn't need a school.

You're right.

Absolutely right.

Because we're not talking about that today.

Not at all.

My family also believes in

creating opportunities for...

everyday people,

people who just haven't received a fair shake in life,

people like you and your brother.

What do we have to do?

- I'm hosting a dinner party tomorrow night,

and I'd like you to join us.

Just me?

Just you.

Oh, but there will be other guests there,

individuals that we'd also like to help,

and the evening will culminate

with a game of sorts,

and the winner...

will be taken care of.

Bills, school, house– everything.

A contest.

What if I don't win?

Well, then you just don't win.

That's it.

- Um, I'm sorry, Dr. Barden, I–

no offense to Mr. Lambrick,

but is this legit?

This is for real?

Very real, Iris.

Mr. Lambrick saved my life.

Not long ago,

but before I met you and your brother,

I was in the same position.

I'd already lost my wife.

I was on my way to losing everything–

this practice, everything.

I had no place to turn.

I was invited to this event, so I went.

You won?

- He did, and I am proud to say

that the Lambrick Foundation came through on its promise.

Tenfold.

- You see what we might be able to do for you.

- Well, money would definitely help,

but my brother needs a bone marrow transplant.

So do you mind if I think this over?

Um, it's just...

Short notice.

It is. You're right.

Of course, yes.

Think it over.

Do that.

Well...

But RSVP by 8:00 tonight

if you do decide to join us.

And my staff will make arrangements to pick you up.

- Thank you. - Mm-hmm.

When I say that we have the ability

to dramatically improve your brother's situation, Iris,

it's not just the money I'm talking about.

You win the game,

and we can bypass any waiting list

and locate a donor immediately.

I will let you know.

Thank you.

She's perfect.

- This is the special du jour.

It's pasta à la vegetable...

Um, okay, wow.

Iris, um, that's a terrible Italian accent.

And if it's French,

"monsieur" is not pronounced "man sewer."

- Monsieur. - Monsieur.

- Monsieur. - Yes.

Come on, seriously, like, it's not gonna kill me

to have some protein now and then.

Hello?

Uh, speaking.

Uh-huh.

Oh.

Okay, well, wait, um,

what about the hostess position that you...

Oh.

Okay, well, thank you.

Thanks again.

- You mad at me or something?

Why would I be mad at you?

I thought I would be a match.

I feel like I let you down.

- You can't always be the hero.

Sometimes you have to let go.

Like let go of you?

- Get down! Get down! Give me cover!

Killing lots of aliens?

Nope, terrorists.

Killing lots of terrorists?

- Straight up murderin' these terrorists, yo.

What's up?

- So, um, I'm gonna go out tonight.

With who?

- I...I ran into a couple friends from high school,

and I thought, you know what?

I should go and unwind.

- Yeah, let your hair down and shit.

Yeah, just go crazy.

Yeah, cool.

- So you're gonna be okay here alone for the night?

Yeah.

Got my meds, emergency contact.

I'll just play video games or whatever.

I could really use the quiet.

Great.

Cool.

Love you.

Aren't you sick of this?

Taking me back and forth to the clinic,

bills, taking care of me.

Like, don't you want a life?

No.

I mean, yeah, I...

It's hard,

but, Raleigh, you're my brother.

This is my life.

It's gonna be fine.

We'll get through this.

This way, please.

Thank you.

Pretty.

Yes.

- Does the Lambrick family live here?

Not exactly.
