they're often criticized for the reckless way they live their lives,

ruling over manhatn from their ivory tower,

untouchable, immortal.

It's only when disaster strikes that the world is reminded...

even the darlings are human.

Tonight, nearly a month after patrick darling's tragic senatorial inauguration,

the family, in an effort to set the record straight,

has agreed to talk about that day's events and the grievous aftermath.

Do youwhnow y chase alexander came looking for you that day?

he was angry, I guess.

I'd dealt with him briefly in legal matters for the family.

He was--is-- a very confused man.

Upon reaching new yo's historic federal hall,

chase alexander, patrick darling's brother-in-law, fired four bullets.

In the confusion, jeremy darling hit his head

and was later diagnosed with amnesia.

When the doctor told me that we'd have to work with him to recover his memory,

I was terrified.

You know, jeremy wasn't the--the fastest learner the first time around.

the first bullet grazed your shoulder.

What was that like?

It hurt...

a lot.

The next two bullets sailed harmlessly away

before alexander was himself gunned down by an actual nypd officer, ty lopez.

If chase alexander wasn't in a coma right now at st.Benjamin's,

and he were watching this broadcast,

what would you say to him?

I would say it has been a long journey back

from that difficult day,

and on behalf of all the darlings,

our thoughts are with him and his family.

A difficult day indeed,

because alexander's fourth bullet found a target,

albeit, an unintentional one,

and took an innocent life.

So who was she, senator?

Who was carmelita rainer?

She was a dear family friend.

she was a-a lovely person.

Truly lovely.

it was me who invited her to attend the inauguration.

I'm thinking of jackie O.,

What she said...

after J.F.K.'S assassination.

"Now he is a legend

when he would have preferred to be a man."

That's right.

Now carmelita is a legend

when she would've preferred to be a woman.

We all miss her greatly.

I swear, they rerun that thing more than "the beverly hillbillies."

I want to disappear.

Well, that's why I chose this place, 'cause it's always empty.

Yeah, I can taste why.

- Nick... - Yeah.

What happens when chase wakes up?

He's been in a coma for five weeks.

I know, but if he does wake up, he could go after you, right?

Or me or patrick or daddy or any--

karen, karen, he's not coming after you because he's not waking up.

- Okay? - Okay.

I told you, it's over.

okay. Well...

you know, there is, um,

there is something else you're not gonna want to talk about.

Try me.

Now that I'm single again,

and you're about to be, um,

there's this little issue of us.

Karen, I am just coming out of a 10-year marriage.

I have a custody mediation with lisa today.

And kiki is convinced that she's never gonna see me again.

Throttle down.Nick, I was just going to suggest...that we be friends.

Friends?We are friends.

no, just friends.

- Oh, just friends. - Yeah.

When have we ever been just friends?

We were just frien for three minutes once, the day we met,

and then I fell in love with you, but I for one, this time,

would commit not to fall in love with you.

- Just friends? - Just friends.

tripp, what can I do for you?

What about chase? What's his status?

Well, the doctors plan to take him off life support on friday

in accordance with his living will.

Why?I got a call from the chief administrator at st.Benjamin's

saying that chase's wife janine was making some noise.

About fighting his living will.

I mean, she's obviously distraught. I suspect she's overwhelmed with guilt.

She left him at the height of his mental breakdown, walked out.

- She doesn't want to let him go. - No.

Well, carmelita's parents did not want to let r go.

Dad, please keep carmelita out of this.

There's nothing we can do to bring her back.

No.

Janine...

doesn't have a leg to stand on legally.

So...

she's just not doing herself or the children a favor by

prolonging this misery.

I'll stop by the hospital later today after my mediation with lisa.

That'll be good. Thanks, nick.

- Doggy. - Yes.

Which doggy?

midas.

Hey! GuY.

Nick, right? Nick.

That's right. Welcome home.

Nick george.

He helps me do stuff. Call him anytime,

- day or night. - very good.

You've definitely improved since I saw you at the hospital.

E neurologist said he has a very unusual case, but...

we're still hoping for a full recovery.

Well, I'm sure it'll all work out.

- Hang in there, jeremy. - Bye, dick.

- Nick. - Nick, right.

You've gotta be kidding.

You want 50% custody?

In our case, I think that a 50-50 custody arrangement is appropriate.

You work for a guy

who you used to be pretty convinced killed your father.

Your definition of what's appropriate doesn't count much.

Look, no one said divorcwas easy.

Let's just try and stay focused on the custody of your daughter.

Lisa, I know you think I'm a good father.

It wasn't that long ago you suggested we have another baby.

That was before I really knew you.

After over ten years of marriage, you didn't really know me?

The important question is what's going to be best for kiki.

All right.

You want kiki 50% of the time, prove you can handle it.

Happy to.

I'm going to miami tomrow to meet with christo,

and kiki was going to stay with my mom,

but you can take her for the weekend.

If things go smoothly, we'll talk.

Fair enough?

Fair enough.

It's so nice to be back in a regular bed

and out of that hospital.

Well, the shrimp's happy to have you home.

What do you think about maine?

As a state?

I mean for the future.

For us.

I'm not saying tomorrow,

but we can think about these things now.

I'm healthy, and we have a long life ahead of us...

a very...

very...

long life.

I-I know.

hello.

What do you want?

- My name is nick george. - I know who you are.

I can't imagine how difficult this must be for you,

but your husband didn't want to live like this.

My husband didn't really know what he wanted

once he got involved with the darlings.

the longer you let him linger in this...

twilight,

the longer it stays in the papers

and the longer your children are gonna have to deal with it every day.

Well, what if he's still in there?

You know, what if there's a chce he could come back?

He would spend the rest of his life in jail.

Is that what you want?

Life is still life, even in jail.He--

he could watch our girls grow up.He...

the darlings killed your father, mr. George.

Everyone knows it.

So how could you come here and help them do the same thing to my husband?

Ms. Alexander,

janine,

I am sorry...

but he's gone.

Let him go.

I know.

I know. You're right.I'M...

I just have to talk to my girls before--

chase?

oh, my god. Honey.

Chase.

He's awake!

He's awake.

He opened his eyes. Oh, god.

They remained open for a minute and a half, and then he went back into the coma.

The doctors aren't sure if he was actually conscious.

No, it was a reflex, a nerve.

Well, probably, but it doesn't matter now.

She's gotten a lawyer and she's filing suit.

To what end?

To nullify the living will.

Oh.

What can we do about that?

Well, I...could offer to represent the hospital.

Their right to pull the plug.
