Is today a glued-to-the-news day off,
or a pretend-everything's-fine day off?
I haven't decided yet.
Okay, well, how about we start with a bubble bath,
then food, then more food?
How about, um, sex?
That's what I meant by "bubble bath."
I'll... I'll meet you at the car.
You know, you delaying going home
is not gonna stop Carina from leaving.
I should be running home, wanting to soak up
every last minute with her, but...
It sucks. I...
As someone who recently weathered a separation
from the one she loves, I wish I could say it won't suck,
but... it will.
So inspiring. Thank you.
I keep thinking maybe I should just propose,
and then she won't have to leave.
Well, um, as someone who also r-recently
got married super fast, I... I-it's not
the solution to your problems.
You two are meant to be.
You've... You'll get through this.
Now, go home and soak up every minute.
Make sure you soak it up. I'm serious. Yeah.
Hi, darling. It's a disaster here.
It's like being in hell. When are you coming?
Can't wait.
Well, you can whip us into shape with your American learnings.
When is your flight?
Tonight. I'm packing now.
You haven't started, have you?
Look at you.
He won't know what hit him.
Marsha, don't.
I-I can do that.
I'm almost done, and my body needs to move.
It needs to move.
Come on, baby.
Are we having a dance party?
Yeah! Yeah! Come join us!
Like this?
Okay!
Hey, go grab your stuff for the park.
Are we going to the park?
You're not. I am.
He's got some kind of egg-drop project for school,
and I'm... I'm gonna take him.
Okay, you... Yeah.
You feel up for that? Of course!
My doctor even says I need more Vitamin D.
And you two need some well-earned alone time.
All right.
Let's hit the road, Jack.
No, no. I mean, not Jack. You.
Here we go. Okay, be safe.
And take your cellphone.
Yeah. Hey, masks!
Yes, I know.
I learned my lesson.
Michelle's going to the protest at Seattle Center.
You want to go?
Should we? Yeah.
Maybe we could...
Hold on.
Warren.
Aren't you supposed to be in surgery right now?
I-In a couple hours.
Yeah, I'm, - I'm at the hospital now.
You okay?
Yeah, yeah. I, um...
Yeah, Miranda couldn't make it.
She, - She had a last-minute surgery,
and I-I told her I'd be fine.
Okay.
He wants company.
Hey, y-you want me to come to the hospital, Warren?
No, no, man. That... That'd be silly.
Because, look, I-I get it.
I was nervous when, I had my surgery,
and they weren't going anywhere near my cojones.
Look, we're supposed to hit this protest,
but I can, come through.
No, no, no, no. Come on, man.
That's more important, right?
I'm good.
Is it gonna be cold there?
So-so.
I need to bring jackets for the night.
I guess you don't need a bathing suit?
Unfortunately, it's not a vacation.
I probably won't ever leave the hospital.
Protesters spill onto
the streets of our city tonight.
Authorities are calling
I keep wondering what my dad is thinking, watching this.
When people were protesting for gay marriage,
he said, "People just can't be happy with what they've got."
It's probably why I still haven't come out to him.
My mom went back to him.
When? Couple months ago.
COVID hit, and she moved back in.
Why didn't you tell me before?
Because I've been trying really hard not to think about it.
But now that you're about to go into lock down,
I just keep picturing her trapped,
tiptoeing around the house,
trying to avoid being in the same room with him
or closing a door too loudly
or putting too much milk in his coffee.
I know, baby. It's okay.
No, in and out, just like we said.
Yeah, well, look, I,
Yeah, yeah.
I, - I love you, too.
Look, go... go save some lives, all right?
I'm good.
Okay, I need you to fill out this form.
It's just a standard safety and
I know all about the forms.
I'm,
I'm actually a surgeon.
Good. Surgeons make the best patients.
Do you have someone to come pick you up later today?
Yeah, my wife will be here.
She's a... She's a doctor, too.
You know, she got stuck in surgery.
Wow. Whole family of doctors.
Yep, and our foster son's gonna be one, too.
Nurse Lea? Someone's here for Mr. Warren.
Says she's his emergency contact for the day?
Hey. Mind if I hang out?
Hey.
Th... this is... this is my friend, Andy.
Hi.
Um, okay, Dr. Warren.
The anesthesiologist will be in shortly
to perform your...
Open airway exam and obtain consent for anesthesia. Yeah.
Let me guess... you're an anesthesiologist, too?
Actually, yeah.
It's... I'm sorry.
What are you doing here?
Well, my dad would have wanted me to be here for you.
Solidarity.
Thanks, Andy.
It's kind of weird, right?
Yeah.
Wait, what? The quiet.
No one's sick. No one's in crisis.
We're just... fine.
Yeah. No, yeah, that's...
That's a first for us.
It's nice.
Yeah.
Should... Should we watch a
a movie or something?
We haven't had childcare since we became a couple, so, no.
No, I-I very much would not like to watch a movie.
Is this okay?
Whoa. Yeah.
Yeah?
Is this okay?
Yeah. Yeah.
I mean...
Just, like...
Yeah. There.
Whoa. Okay. Okay? Yeah.
Whoa!
My God!
A person!
Okay.
Aah!
G... No, no, no!
We have to help her.
Do we?
No. Miss?!
No, no. No, no, no, no, no. Hello? Are you okay?
Who is that?
We live in Apartment 14.
Are you all right?
I hit my back on the side of the dumpster and fell in.
I can't believe it!
I fell into... into a dumpster!
I'm gonna call...
Yeah, okay.
No, no, no, no, no! Don't... Don't move!
Don't... Hey, hey. Y-You can't do that, okay?
It's very important that you stay still
until I can check on you, okay?
Um, you said you hit your back?
Yeah.
Okay, can you tell me where it hurts?
Well, my back.
Lower.
I don't know, like everywhere.
Okay. It's okay.
D... did you hit your head?
No, I don't... I don't... I don't think so.
