07x04 - The Prince of Nucleotides

[bunniefuu]

What a lovely... Frame?

It's a strand of your DNA.
Really?

We sequenced and framed the DNA
of all the lab's major donors

for the gift bags
at our upcoming gala.

Thank you.
It's very thoughtful.

Well, yours is just a gift.

Hmm.

I can't believe this
got done so fast.

And this sequencer
is already obsolete.

The newer model will handle dozens
of genomes in a single day.

So, what does all this mean?

Um, the... The nucleotides,
which are joined by each rung

on the double helix
on a strand of DNA

can only be paired cytosine
to guanine, or C to G.

Yeah. That's great.
But I meant...

How does my DNA look?

Will I be able to
have a healthy baby?

Oh. Um...

Uh, I have no idea. You'll
have to ask the geneticist.

ANNA: And five, six,
seven, eight!

The camp nurse totally over-reacted.
I don't need that oxygen.

Okay. But the nurse
was right to call me.

Calf pain followed by shortness of
breath can be signs of a blood clot.

This won't take too long.

I hope not. We only have two
more rehearsal days left.

And like a genius, I changed
the whole ending last night.

You're a choreographer?

Trying to be. Uh, sorry, Doc.

Guys, take that again,
from the lift.

CIA: Okay.

Ah. Yep, there it is.

Um, you see that spot?

ANNA: Uh-huh.
HANK: Right there?

That's a DVT. A deep vein
thrombosis. A clot.

Anna, do you take
birth control pills?

Why would that matter?

Well, estrogen can cause clots.

Anyway, I don't.

Okay. Well, I'll start you on blood
thinners. And you'll need a chest CT.

Ugh. Just a second, Doc. Guys!

The turn into the lift into the
fall should be one impulse.

Here.

[PANTING] Okay.

Just a second.

Okay. So, you're going to
bring yourself around, Cia.

Then you're going to use the
momentum to bring you down.

And then, you're going
to follow him up.

Around. And...
[GASPING]

Oh, my God!
Anna?

Anna.

[GASPING]

Here we go. That's it.

It's okay. It's okay.
Just breathe.

Is she okay?

She's going to be fine, but run and
ask a nurse to call 911. Thank you.

Let me just get...

Your shortness of breath could be
a sign that clots have broken off

and scattered to your lungs.

Anna, I have to ask.

How long have you been a girl?

Hey, Anna.

Hey!

So, the chest CT confirmed that
you have pulmonary emboli.

Uh, you'll have
to stay overnight,

but the blood thinners
are already working.

We'll get you back to your
dancers as soon as possible.

Thank you.
You got it.

Um, so, Anna.

An ER doctor will be
coming to do a full exam,

including a pelvic.

And an admissions officer
needs to help

clarify your parents'
health insurance.

There is no "Anna"
on their policy.

They only list
an "Abe."

Yeah, that's out of date.

So, you were born a boy.

No. The ER doctor won't agree,
but I've always been a girl.

Got you. How long
have you been Anna?

On and off, at home,
since I was little.

But everywhere full
time starting this year.

And at camp?

It's been so cool.

No one there ever
knew me before,

so to them, I'm just me.

[CHUCKLES]

How did you guess?
Was it my voice?

I'm a doctor.

It's my job to notice things,

like the waxing rash
on your chest.

But if I weren't treating you,
I would never have known.

Yeah. I was always teased
for being too feminine.

Do your parents know that
you're taking estrogen?

My mom tries to be supportive.

But she insisted
that I see a therapist.

Mmm-hmm.

And made me promise not
to start hormones

until I turn 17,

and not to push for surgery yet.

But...

A few months ago, I started
taking estrogen behind her back.

Self-administering?

It's just a pill.

Well, sometimes
it's not that simple.

We should run some tests.

We need to go back
to 2-C.

No way, no going back.

So, Sashi has to sit
upside down?

Yep.

[CHUCKLING] Is that a problem?

I thought I could finish
this before I left.

I'm going to finish this later.

Once we're out of her hair
is what Mommy means.

You said it.

Are you sure you and Sashi
don't want to join us?

You mean, uh,
come out to your parents

that we are seeing each other?

Your parents who sued me
for breaking our engagement?

You're right, it's too soon.
We don't want to rush this.

Everything is going so well. I just...
I don't want to rock the boat.

Anyway, I can't miss
the lab fundraiser.

I'll miss you.

I'll miss you, too.

But I promise that
I will have conquered

the baby kinder jumper seat
by the time you get back.

Dear God, make it so.

All right, guys, let's go.

Accounting for time zones,
Boris' fundraiser in London

will actually close four
hours before ours begins.

Not that it's a competition.
[STAMMERS] Entirely.

The two of you have become quite
a team organizing this gala.

Oh, not just the gala. You
should see us work Big Pharma.

And the medical device reps.

Let me guess. You handle
the wining and dining,

and Jeremiah knows what
you're actually buying.

You'd be surprised. This guy's learned a
thing or two about the art of the schmooze.

Evan's a good teacher.

And since I don't have time to refute that,
I'll just say thanks for the briefing.

Uh, actually, we know how
little you care about the board

and being on a gala committee, so we hate
to ask you this, but we could use a favor.

Two. It's two favors.

Right.
How can I help?

Well, one of our biggest potential
donors, Olympia Houston...

Uh, you know who
Olympia Houston is.

No, but I'm guessing she's rich.

Oh, my God, you're amazing. Yeah, she's
rich. But she's also not feeling tip-top.

So, we're hoping that you
can see her, like, ASAP,

since we need her check-writing hand
in perfect condition by Sunday.

Yeah, of course I can see a patient.
That's no favor.

Even better. So, we only
have one favor to ask.

The highlight of the gala
is a big-ticket auction.

So, we've done some research on which
doctor's services would bring a high price,

and guess who was
at the top of the list.

You.

I was going to guess that.

Listen, guys, I never meant to give
the impression I can't be bothered.

I support rare and genetics disease
research and all the work you're doing.

Of course you can auction off my services.
That's great!

Hey, maybe we should
let him know...

Ah! Jeremiah.
What do we do?

We take the yes?

We take the yes.

Can I leave now?
Uh-huh.

Okay.
[CHUCKLES]

Hey.

Whoa.

What happened over here?

The plants were wilted.

So, you moved the living room?

No. No, I realized if we moved the
table over here and then swapped...

Is something burning?
[GASPS]

My soup! Ahhh! Oh, no.

Um. What...

Did you hear something
upsetting from the geneticist?

No. No, not upsetting.

Well, you know, maybe a
little upsetting.

But not disturbing upsetting,
just upsetting.

Paige.
Yeah.

Hi. Come with me.

Sit.
[PAIGE SIGHS]

Tell. From the beginning.

Okay. Well, I was really lucky
the doctor could work me in.

But honestly, I think she saw my
name and knew I was your wife,

and suddenly she
has an opening...

Okay, let's skip the beginning. How was
the ending? Like, how... Are you okay?

Oh. Yeah, my DNA
markers seem fine.

There's no propensity for
any known genetic diseases.

Oh, thank goodness.
Yeah.

Ooh, there is one funny thing.

It turns out my mitochondrial DNA is


Jewish?

Paige Collins Lawson
is a member of my tribe?

Was I not in it before?

I've got to call Dad. Okay,
please don't call your dad.

Okay. But I've got
to call Hank. [CHUCKLES]

If you call Hank and tell
him I'm 10 to 14% Jewish,

while I am trying to tell you
something earth-shattering,

I will 10 to 14% divorce you.

Got it. Sorry, go on.

[SIGHS]

Well, it turns out since Dr.
Parks reads the hospital blogs,

she knows about your issues with low...
Motility.

Do we have to say it every day?
[CHUCKLES]

Anyway, she knows. And now she
also knows that I'm adopted.

And her partner is a lawyer
who handles adoptions,

so she asked if we were
considering adopting.

Which we're not.

Are we?

Well, no. No, we haven't been.
Right.

But it turns out she only asked

because there's this young girl
who's seven months pregnant,

and the couple who was
adopting her little girl

had some kind of change
of heart, and so...

[STAMMERS] So...

Well, I told her we'd just started trying to
get pregnant and it wasn't the right time.

But ever since I left her office,
I've just had this feeling and...

I've been thinking about whatever
it was that made my parents

decide to adopt when they
did and then to choose me

and how once they did, my whole
life happened, including you.

Like it was fate. And...

[WHIMPERING] I don't know.

It's a little girl.

You know we have a 50-50 sh*t at
making our own little girl, right?

I know. I know.

And I wouldn't want to stop
trying to have our own babies.

But this has landed on our
doorstep for some reason.

Well, it's a new idea to consider,
that's for sure. [CHUCKLES]

I know.

But I've heard adoptions
can be complicated, too.

I know.

I just don't want you to get
your heart set on this.

Like, we haven't even
met this woman.

But we could?

Yeah, I'd be open to...

To meeting her. As long as we
agree it's just a first step.

Absolutely, a first step.

I mean, we don't even know
how Jewish this baby is.

[LAUGHS]

Okay, great. I'm going
to go call the lawyer.

All right.

OLYMPIA: I can't thank you enough
for fitting me in, Doctor.

HANK: Please, call me Hank.

I will happily call you Hank.

I'm in town for the Rare and
Orphan Disease fundraiser, but...

I have a problem, Hank.

HANK: I hope I can help.

Well, uh, I'm afraid this is going to sound
like the classic drug-seeker, but...

The truth is...

I had to fly commercial
from Hong Kong,

and when the airport security
pulled my cosmetics bag out,

the lid to my sleeping pills
fell off

and they flew everywhere
except with me.

Mmm.

May I have a listen?
Yeah.

And your prescribing physician
can't write a refill?

Well, the story is going to
sound fishier and fishier,

but my primary is in Bali at his daughter's
wedding for the weekend and unavailable.

Ah. I'm going on two
days without a wink.

Okay. Uh, would you
breathe for me?

[BREATHING DEEPLY]

Have you tried melatonin?
Ugh, does nada.

Meditation?
Zilch.

Chamomile tea? I can drink
it all night, and I do.

Nothing puts me out except these.
Mmm.

Well, there is another remedy, but
that's not an option these days

as I'm sleeping alone.
Ah.

Or not sleeping at all,
as the case may be.

Right. All right. I'll
call in a prescription.

Bless you.

For two pills.

That should get you through until
your primary is available.

You just want me well rested and in a
generous mood for tomorrow's fundraiser.

I have no idea what you mean.

Oh.

[CHUCKLES] Right on time.

I imagine that the King is
a very busy man. He is.

And this angel is yours?

Mmm-hmm. This is my daughter, Sashi.
[LAUGHS]

She's promised to behave.

Well, if she is like her mother,
I take her at her word.

Sashi, I have
a surprise for you.

Oh, my. Look at that.
[BOTH CHUCKLE]

It's a tiny Versailles,
but babyproof.

And the nanny is ready
for her guest of honor.

Oh. How thoughtful, but I'm
not sure that she will...

Well, I guess that she will.
[CHUCKLING]

[STAMMERS]
You hired a nanny?

It seemed wise.
Even on the telephone,

my father demands
undivided attention.

So, the good news is you could
be discharged this afternoon.

And the bad news?

I talked to your parents.

Dad, too?
He's worried about you.

If it weren't for him, I
could have avoided puberty.

They have dr*gs to do that now,

but he thought I was
too young to decide.

Yeah, he mentioned you had
some tough times in the past.

Self-injury. And you were
medicated for depression.

But since I've been Anna,
I've felt fine.

I haven't even taken
antidepressants for six months.

So, you think your bad feelings came
from living an identity that was false.

Yeah.

See, until recently,

doctors labeled transgender
patients as having depression,

but the mood often lifts as soon as
people are free to be themselves.

How did you know that?

I did some reading.

I have to keep up
with my patients.

So, did you talk my parents
out of flying in?

Oh, no. You're not the only
stubborn one in your family.

They are coming.
[LAUGHS] Great.

EVAN: You didn't see her.
It's like...

It's like adoption got in
her head and made her crazy.

How can you say
she's being logical?

Because the data supports her.

If you see my graph,
given your motility numbers

and the average amount of time it
takes to complete a first adoption,

moving ahead on both fronts could
significantly speed up the process.

That's exactly my problem.

This is happening too fast. [STAMMERS]
I need more time to consider this.

JIM: [CHUCKLES] J-Sac?

Oh, God! It is you!

I saw Sacani on your lab's website,
and knew it had to be J-Sac.

Hey. Jim McGuire. Sorry to...
Sorry to interrupt.

No, you're not.
Evan R. Lawson. Hi.

Um, Jim and I were at
Virginia Tech together.

Freshman roomies, J-Sac.

Oh, maybe you don't
go by that anymore.

[CHUCKLES]
I never went by that.

Genius. Why didn't
I ever think of J-Sac?

I'm glad you didn't.

Ah, the curse of the undergrad nicknames.
They used to call me Jimbo.

But we were all idiots
compared to this guy.

I... I think I was more the...
The butt of your jokes.

[STAMMERS] Yeah, I'm ashamed
to say there was some of that,

but we were young and stupid.

Oh, you know who asked about you?
Sandra Pavlik.

You remember Sandra Pavlik?

Yeah, we, uh... We ran into each other at the
phenotyping conference at Johns Hopkins.

[STAMMERS]
Are you in genetics, too?

Ah, well, no. I'm a nuts and bolts guy,
just trying to stay ahead of the curve.

You're in sales.
Guilty.

And as it turns out, Long
Island's part of my territory.

So, I'm not just here to
reminisce about the Hokies.

I was hoping to help you
guys outfit your lab.

But hey, you look...
You look pretty set.

Sorry. Hokies?

[CHUCKLES] Oh, yeah. The
V-Tech mascot is a turkey.

Oh. [CHUCKLES]
No, the HokieBird,

though in common parlance a gobbler,
is biologically not a turkey.

[CHUCKLES] We should... We
should argue that over dinner.

Well, winning that debate
would be satisfying.

But, um, unfortunately,
I have to work late.

Same old J-Sac,
you never stop.

Tell you what. Why don't you give me a
call if you... If you need a break?

I'll do that. Jimbo.

DIVYA: And if you have any
more questions, Your Highness,

please do not hesitate to call.

KING: Thank you again,
Ms. Katdare.

[KING SPEAKS AFRIKAANS]
[SPEAKS AFRIKAANS]

[SIGHS] Yeah.

[BOTH LAUGHING]

Well, it sounds like your
formidable father is coming around.

Thanks to you.

Again.

[SIGHS]

How did I miss that incredible
playhouse on my first visit?

I had it delivered yesterday.

[CHUCKLES]
Just for today?

I hope not just for today.

I have some trade negotiations
in Manhattan this summer,

and I thought I might
stay out here.

I've always liked
the Hampton beaches.

And now, there is
an added attraction.

Oh?

I took the liberty of having some
inquiries made at the hospital.

I've been told that
you are unattached.

Quami. I am afraid that...

Somehow I've given you
the wrong impression

when I was treating you
as a patient...

On the contrary. If there is
one thing I know about you,

it is how seriously
you take your job.

And I respect that. But our
medical relationship is over.

I know you're busy with your
daughter, as well as your work,

but in your free time,

I would like us to get
to know each other.

For a man who was engaged
just a few days ago,

you certainly don't
waste any time.

[CHUCKLES]
I cannot afford to be idle.

My people are waiting
for their future queen.

Oh!
[LAUGHS]

You don't hear that
every day. [SIGHS]

Are you free tomorrow night? No.

I'm sorry. I...
I have other plans.

The Rare and Orphan
Diseases fundraiser.

Would you accompany me?

The lab was most helpful, and I
would like to show my appreciation.

[SIGHS] Well, how can
I say no to that?

[BOTH CHUCKLE]

They changed their minds.

Um... [CLEARS THROAT] And your parents?
Are they still...

Oh, it's just my mom.
And she's leaving it to me.

It was my mistake.
I have to handle it.

That must be tough.

She's right. It was a sin.
We're very religious.

Oh. So are we.

Right?

In a way.

Just not in the going to services way or
praying way or the believing in sin way.

Yeah. But we have a foundation
of, of right and wrong

and we want to raise our children with a
strong moral compass in a loving home.

That's what I meant.

So, how are you feeling?

I had all my prenatal checks,
and I do not do dr*gs.

Oh. No, no. We... We
didn't think that you did.

[CHUCKLES] Not at all.

How about the baby's father? Um, does
he know you're considering adoption?

He's gone.

And I'm not considering, I'm doing it,
whether it's you or someone else.

Um, listen, Elan.

I feel like we got off on the wrong foot.
We're a little nervous.

Yeah, just...

And I was surprised. They said
you were such a perfect fit.

I didn't think you'd...

Be white.

[CHUCKLES] Well, we are.

Yeah. But if it helps,
we feel very guilty about it.

[BAND PLAYING MUSIC]

All right. Nice work. Take a
break and come back for notes.

I am impressed.

It's getting there.

How are your symptoms?
Totally gone.

Yeah? No calf pain,
no shortness of breath?

Nope.

And you know what else?

My bunkmate, Cia, found my
prescription bottle from the hospital.

Uh, with my old name on it.

How did you handle that?

At first, I was freaking.
Um...

But then, I decided to tell her the truth.
That I'm trans.

And she was cool with it.

That's great.
I know. I mean,

she had a couple of dumb questions
about what I have down there,

but I guess you can't blame
her for being curious.

Oh, my God. Well, it sounds like
you're having a really good day.

I'm sorry to be the bearer
of some not-so-good news.

Your blood work came back. You have a
condition called Factor V Leiden deficiency.

It's a clotting disorder, a tendency for
the blood to form clots on its own.

Okay. When combined with
estrogen, it can be dangerous.

But if I keep taking
blood thinners...

You will for a few months, but
it won't cure your deficiency.

Anna, I can't recommend you as a candidate
for hormone replacement therapy.

I was hoping you'd tell my parents
why I shouldn't have to wait.

I know. But given your condition and
knowing the risks you would face,

I'm afraid I would never
advise you to take estrogen.

I'm really sorry.

Thanks for getting
the rice separate.

Oh, it's how it comes.

I know.

[CHUCKLES] Yeah, I'd forgotten
about your food thing.

Remember that time in the cafeteria,
when you said I had a phone call?

Yeah, look, I...
I want to apologize for that.

Mixing up your food was a joke,
I didn't think you'd, uh...

You'd melt down.

Actually, it was useful.

My parents had catered to me, and
I didn't realize how odd it was.

I was a jerk.

It's over.

[CHUCKLING]
I always loved that model.

That was our workhorse.

[STAMMERS] But you work at
Criteria Biosystems?

Worked. We had a parting
of the ways last year.

This bad boy. This was when
Criteria was at its peak.

Well, we have the next
gen model on order.

Hmm.

Is there something
wrong with it?

I don't know. I'm...
I'm out of the loop.

Why did you leave?

I don't want to
badmouth Criteria.

My team and I wanted to be part of
something on the more up and up.

Others left with you.

Their loss, my gain.

And the next gen model doesn't
live up to its promise?

[CHUCKLES] Let's just say I hope you
didn't put down a down payment.

Oh, Evan would never
hear of that.

I mean, the expenditure is
approved in the budget.

But when we heard there were delays,
we held off cutting a check.

Smart. You know, I wish I'd hooked
up with you a few weeks ago.

My guys, they've come up with
a sequencer that's so elegant.

Well, not that I'm
prejudiced at all, but...

Is it on the market?

We have some prototypes
about to go out.

Um, but the bidding on them is
already closed, or might as well be.

I'll get you in on
the next round.

What do you mean,
"might as well be?"

We make the final decisions Monday. We're
being picky about where they land.

Maybe I could discuss this with Evan and
see if we can get a bid in quickly.

Do you have any material
you could share?

Absolutely. You really think Evan
would take a look over the weekend?

If I ask him to.

The expenditure's
already approved.

Right. And if you do jump in, a bank
transfer takes 72 hours to clear,

so you wouldn't
be risking anything.

So, if someone on the board disagreed,
you would simply stop the wire transfer.

No harm, no foul.

Same old Jimbo.
You never stop selling.

CIA: She's right in here.
HANK: Okay.

Anna, are you okay?

I told you not to call him!

It's okay, Anna. It's okay.
I heard what happened.

I just want to make
sure you're okay.

I'm so sorry, Anna.
I shouldn't have told.

Thank you, Cia. If you could
just give us a moment?

Thanks.

Hey.

Do you know who hit you?

It was dark.

Well, thank goodness your
friend came along when she did.

Listen, I'd like to
take a look at you.

Don't touch me!

You were att*cked, Anna.

It was a shock.
It was frightening.

[SOBBING]

But you're safe now. Okay?

I'm going to take care of you.

Now, if you could just
give me your arm.

I need to get a pulse.

Thank you.

Hmm.

Okay, I need you to roll over.

That's it. Easy.

Okay.

Now, they hit you in the face.

Did they knock you down?

Did you hit your head
or, or lose consciousness?

They kicked me.

They kicked you. Where?

Anna, listen to me.
Your heart is racing,

and your blood pressure is elevated.
I need to check your abdomen.

Okay? Okay,
thank you.

With the symptoms you're having and the
blood thinners you've been taking,

there is a risk of internal bleeding. Okay?
We may need to take you back to the hospital.

No! I don't want to go
to the hospital!

The hospital doesn't help me.
No one helps me!

I know. I know. I hear you.

Anna, did they kick you here?

[GASPS] Mmm-hmm.

Okay, listen to me.

I didn't see any sign of
bleeding in your belly,

but there's a bruise right
here above your kidneys.

If your adrenal gland is ruptured, it
would send you into adrenal crisis,

flooding your system with adrenaline
which would account for your panic

and your soaring blood
pressure and heart rate.

Okay.

I'm going to give you some beta-blockers,
which will help reverse that.

I'm going to stay here
and keep an eye on you.

If your vitals settle down, we can
skip that trip to the hospital. Okay?

Okay.
Okay, good.

We'll get you cleaned up,
get some ice on your cheek,

and over time, your adrenal
gland will heal all on its own.

Lucky me.

EVAN: How are you holding up?
I'm fine.

I mean, we knew it was a long sh*t.
Or at least you did.

[SIGHS]
I had some reservations.

So did the birth mother.

But I understand. It's...

It's complicated.

It's not that complicated.

While we were failing to convince
that girl what great parents we'd be,

I realized something.

Adoption could
totally work for us.

Any baby lucky enough to have you as
a mom will be the right baby for us.

So, however it happens,
we're going to do this. Okay?

I love you.

Now, go, do your job,
pry open some wallets.

Um, who is that with Divya?

Uh, that's Prince Charming.
I just met him.

I'll fill you in later.

What...
Go.

Does your family have
a place in London?

Hampstead Heath. But these days,
I feel more at home in Paris.

Ah.

Do you like the Fourth?
Oh!

I love the Marais. But I haven't
been to Paris in years.

And I thought you
could do no wrong.

[CHUCKLES] How can you account
for such a serious lapse?

Will you educate
Sashi in Europe?

We live here now.

But, uh, am I wrong this
is a summer business?

It seems ideal that during the school year,
you can live wherever Sashi can excel.

Well, honestly, I've been more
focused lately on the here and now.

Oh. Tell me about it.

Just some custody details I need
to settle with Sashi's father.

Well, I won't pry.

Until we have more champagne.

EVAN:
Check, check, check. Check.

Uh, hi. If I may have
your attention, guys.

So, we've reached the live auction
section of tonight's, uh, festivities.

And, uh, I just wanted to warm you up. He's
not here yet, but I want to just talk...

Thank you again for your
generous contribution.

Yeah. About that...

I was surprised you were willing.
But I admire you for it.

I've been working on myself, too, this
summer. Getting out of my comfort zone.

[SIGHS] Growth is good.

Jeremiah, did you
just handle me?

Oh, my God! There he is! Ladies and
gentlemen, the man of the hour.

The Hamptons' most-beloved concierge doctor
and biggest uncaught whale of a catch.

Trust me here. My brother,
Dr. "Call me Hank" Lawson.

Put your hands together for him. Give him
a warm welcome. [AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]

Whoo-hoo!

HANK: Thank you so much.

So, first of all, uh, thank you
so much for being here. Sure.

And ladies, I want you to
feast your eyes on the...

Not only ladies. Ladies and gentlemen.
Anyone can bid.

Either on behalf of yourself or a friend
or neighbor, as long as they're single.

Uh, but I'd like to start
the bidding now at $5,000.

[WHISPERS] Okay, that's way
too much money. [SHUSHING]

EVAN: $5,000.

So, just because these diseases are rare
doesn't mean your donations have to be.

Uh, do I hear five?

I'll bid a hundred.

A hundred. I'll take
a hundred bucks.

$100,000.

Sold! Uh, unless anyone
else wants to bid.

JEREMIAH: Evan. Take the yes.

Sold to the beautiful
Ms. Houston.

Thank you so much.
[AUDIENCE APPLAUDING]

Donations are exceeding
our expectations.

It's bad luck to count the box office
before the curtain falls, Jeremiah.

That said, we're k*lling it.

Oh, uh, by the way.

After your call, I mentioned
Jim McGuire to another rep.

He'd heard that Jim didn't leave Criteria.
He was fired.

Uh, are you saying Jim lied?

Not necessarily. When a
high-profile employee exits,

there's often a rush
to control the news.

This isn't news.
This happened last year.

My guy said last month.

Does that matter?

Uh, you can't build a new
sequencer in a month.

Oh.
I'll handle it.

Um, Evan, Mr. Thayer
has a question

about the tax implications
of an estate donation.

Okay. I'll catch up with you.

HANK: Thank you for your
generous donation.

So, now can I get more pills?

Uh. How do you feel
about dinner instead?

[CHUCKLING] I have been known
to have dinner on occasion.

Okay, so. I'm sorry if I'm awkward at this.
I've just... I've never been bought before.

I should hope not.
I don't go for used.

Well, thank you for saving me the
embarrassment of not fetching top dollar.

Well, honestly, I feel fortunate

to be able to support such
an extraordinary cause.

I'm a sucker for hope.

Medicine brings hope
to the hopeless.

Well, we try.

I have a feeling you
do more than try.

Am I right, Hank?

I've got to go.

QUAMI: I enjoy a good polo match as
much as any previously colonized elite.

And I would never presume to pass
judgment on the IQ of an underwear model.

But any man

who let you slip
through his fingers

must be an utter fool.

[LAUGHING]
There was no slipping.

I just realized I was
looking for more.

Look here.

Sorry.

Sorry.

I need to tell you.

Contrary to what
you've heard... [CHUCKLES]

I am seeing someone.

It's at the early stages, even though
we've known each other for a long time.

And neither of us has been ready
to commit or even go public yet.

[SIGHING]
It's complicated.

I'm not discouraged
by competition.

And I'll take it as a positive
sign that you were curious enough

to let me kiss you before
revealing your status.

You're not going to make
this easy for me, are you?

[LAUGHS]

It's good to be Prince.

Okay.
Thanks.

Hank, you came. Can you
stay for the performance?

I wouldn't miss it. I was really
glad to hear you stuck it out.

Are you kidding? I don't run away.
This is my life.

And I expect great
things from you.

You sound like you've
already met my parents.

Are they here?

And they want to thank you.

Come and I'll introduce you.

Uh, yeah, of course. We will.

But, um, before we do,

I've been thinking. In light
of what happened last night...

You mean my getting b*at up?

And knowing that I left
you feeling hopeless.

It's okay.

Not for me, it's not.

See, doctors weigh
risks all the time.

It's part of our job.

And I've started to realize that the risk
factors in your life are significant.

More than I imagined at first.

You're a brave girl.

If you still want to
try taking estrogen,

I'll work with you,
at a lower dose,

combined with continued
blood thinners.

We'll find you a great specialist and
see if we can find a tolerable dose.

And if you can't?

There are other courses
to consider,

like implanting an IVC filter
if clotting issues continue.

The bottom line is, if you want to move
forward, understanding all the risks,

I will support you.

And do what I can to get
your parents onboard, too.

Really?
Really.

Can a girl give you a hug?

This girl can.

[BOTH CHUCKLE]
Thank you.

EVAN: Well, that's good.

Um, how much did we rake in
if you include promised gifts?

Are you kidding? Oh, my God.
[CELL PHONE RINGING]

We surpassed our goal by 50%.

Hello?

Yeah, thank... Thank you so much.
[SIGHS]

That's great.
All right. Bye-bye.

Oh, my God, that's amazing.

[STAMMERS] We felt
exactly the same.

Yes. We agree. We agree.

Absolutely, of course. Of course.
Thank you for calling.

Okay, we'll do that.
Tomorrow.

All right.
What?

She wants us.

Who?
Elan! She wants us!

To have her baby?

We're going to be parents.

Is that okay?

It's perfect.

It could not be more perfect.

We're going to have a baby.

[LAUGHING]

I'm going to be a pops.

Wow.

[CHUCKLES]

[RAJ SINGING SOFTLY]

[SIGHS]

DIVYA: You're back. [LAUGHS]

And you're a genius.

I am.

I paid Nate double to set this thing up
and then sent our Handy Manny home early.

Oh.
Hmm.

Look at you!

Are the twins here?

Dropped them at Karen's.

How was the gala?

It was great.
Uh, financially.

Those are the best kind.
Yes.

Yes. Really big donors.

But none of them brought these.

Oh, no. Not...

What else?
Butterscotch pecan.

[SIGHS] My weakness.

But I ate way too much tonight.

And I am totally exhausted.

Plus, I have an
early start tomorrow.

Mmm. Mondays are rough.

But, uh, these could
take the edge off.

Can we save them for tomorrow?

Only if I take them with me.

[CHUCKLES]

I do know you.

You do.

Bye-bye, little girl.

[SIGHS]

[KNOCKING]

Hank.

Am I early?

Did you...

Oh. You actually
thought you had...

Well, I... I texted and
you said "perfect."

Oh, that was you?

I didn't recognize the number.

No wonder my masseuse was so
confused when I called to cancel.

Wait. So, you
weren't expecting...

I mean, this whole
date thing was more...

I don't know.

Conceptual. An excuse
to write a check.

The check always does it.

And now I know.

Well, sorry to interrupt
your workout.

And, uh, if you could just keep it mum
that the Hamptons' most eligible bachelor

is totally clueless,
I would appreciate it.

Yeah, if this actually got out,
it could lower your price.

Yeah. Well, it was nice
to meet you, Olympia.

Thanks again for your donation.
And, uh, have a great evening.

Oh, I did have a great evening.

Thank you, Hank.
I thoroughly enjoyed myself.

Yeah. Me, too. This was the best
date I've had all month, actually.

Well, I should go.

Well, you're already here.
Why don't you come in?

Yeah. Okay.

What do you mean, there's nothing
you can do? You're the bank.

Yes, of course, I've tried to contact Mr.
McGuire on his phone, but it's inactive.

There must be something you...

What about
the 72-hour hold?

It's a 24-hour hold?

So, the funds would be...

Mmm-hmm.

I see.

Okay. Thanks.

Divya, if you get this, will you...
[SOBBING]

[BREATH TREMBLING] Okay.

Okay.
