Yeah, wow.
It's amazing, isn't it?
How two little words can make our lovemaking even more passionate.
Oh, God. When I say "don't stop," you really don't stop.
Not those two words.
I love you too.
I can't believe that in three weeks, two days, and...
What time is it?
- Eight hours, if you don't have a visa, you'll be on a plane to France.
Stop calculating.
We promised to live in the present.
I am, I am. And right now, in the present,
I'm upset that my government, to whom I pay taxes, by the way,
is lurking in my bedroom waiting to ruin my life.
I love how you think the entire government is out there to get you.
Well, this is a very big problem.
You know what I think?
What?
I think the problems of two little people
don't amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world.
As adorable as you are,
imitating Humphrey Bogart with your little French accent,
I don't think we should quote from Casablanca anymore.
Because I know how it ends.
Two people in tears, in an airport, on a foggy night.
- Good morning, Leisure Man. - Good morning, Hunky Breadwinner.
And just so you know, I'm not gonna be Leisure Man forever.
There are many exciting careers just waiting for someone like me.
Such as?
Well, I don't know yet. I have to finish my careers-assessment test.
"Of the following, which activities most appeal to you?
Working on mathematical problems."
No. "Recording customer complaints." No.
"Teaching needy children overseas."
Yes.
- "Giving orders to others." - Yes.
Yes. "Tapping maple trees for sugar."
Why not? Oh, "Giving legal advice." No. Did that. Hated it. Not a chance.
"Designing lamps." Absolutely.
Wow, "planning a political campaign."
Bite your tongue, you stupid test.
Wait, Scotty, look at this.
I'm not suited for anything.
Well, what about lamps and maple syrup?
The only things I am suited for are law and politics.
I don't wanna go back to that.
- I'm a complete failure. - Stop it, Kevin. You are not a failure.
Well, name one thing I'm good at.
Well, you were pretty good in bed last night.
Yes, I was, wasn't...? Hey, let's do that again.
Oh, I can't. I have a breakfast meeting at San Estephe with my boss, so l...
Oh, come on. Daytime sex is one of the few perks of unemployment.
- Come on, come on. - Okay, but we have to be quick.
Leisure Man can be so speedy when necessary.
Don't answer.
The only people who call the landline are telemarketers and wrong number.
Well, it's private. What if it's my boss calling to cancel?
Then maybe you should answer it.
- Hello? - Hi, Scotty.
- It's Sarah. Listen... - Oh, yeah. Hi, just a sec.
It's Sarah.
What kind of sneaky person blocks their caller ID?
Look, I'm in an emergency and I didn't have time to play
your little voicemail game so that you call me back.
What emergency?
Okay, listen, Kevin,
you have got to help Luc get his visa renewed.
Come on, you're a lawyer. There's gotta be something that you could do.
Sarah, I'm not an immigration lawyer, okay?
I put a call in to the immigration attorney at my old firm. That is all I can do.
No, Kevin. There's got to be something else you can do.
No, no, no. Don't...
- Hello? - Scotty? It's Kitty.
- Hi, Kitty. - No, no, no.
She says it's an emergency.
Hang on a second.
Kevin-11, what's your emergency?
Very funny, Kevin.
Look, I need you to go to a couple of campaign events with me today, okay?
Please, I am desperate.
Kit, I do not work for you, remember? You have staff.
I know I have staff, but I hate my staff, so I promise you won't have to do anything.
I just need somebody with a sense of humor to hang out with me.
Okay, what about Sarah? She makes you laugh. Hang on.
Sarah, make Kitty laugh.
- Kitty? - Sarah?
Kitty, I'm talking to Kevin.
- Well, so was I. - I called first.
- Wait. - I'm sorry, sweetie. I have to go.
- Please, don't go. - I'm sorry. I love you.
- I love you too. - Kevin!
- No, no. Kevin. - Kevin?
Kev, Kev, Kev. Kevin.
- Kevin. - Kevin.
- One demanding, needy,
high-maintenance sister at a time, please.
- I heard about... - Don't call me high-maintenance.
I woke up and all of a sudden...
All right, come on, Nora. Just run through this one more time.
Would you stop that? Come on, just relax.
- Fine, fine. - Close your eyes and there you go.
Where Saul can't pester me to sing this stupid song.
I'm trying to help, you're not taking it seriously.
I'm sorry. I don't remember it.
Honestly, when it gets to a point
where our only hope of finding this piece of property
is if I can remember some stupid lyrics, well, I think we should just give up.
Well, I'm not ready to give up. And neither is Holly.
Well, even if we find it, we don't know it'll be worth anything.
And we don't know that this is actually what Dennis York is after.
What are you talking about?
He filed to do business as Narrow Lake Development Group.
There's nothing ambiguous about that.
And furthermore, York was willing to pay Holly more than Ojai is worth.
- There's no other conclusion to make. - Well, then what's he waiting for, huh?
Why doesn't he call me and make an offer for our half of the company?
I don't know. Maybe he plans to make an end run and approach the kids first.
No. No, I don't want him to talk to the kids.
Well, then I'll contact him. I'll just set up a meeting and force his hand.
No, I don't want you to talk to him either. Saul, I don't trust him.
Well, sweetheart, until we find out where and what Narrow Lake is,
that man is holding all the cards.
- Okay, what is going on? Seriously. - God, you scared me.
It is beautiful outside. It's Saturday, Dad was gone for like three weeks
and you're stuck in your office with the shades drawn.
When I open them, there's a glare on my computer screen.
- You shouldn't be on your computer. - I'm just catching up on bills.
Mom, seriously, what is so important? I mean, like, what is all this stuff?
Why are you looking at files from 1975?
That's from another project. They're all going back to storage today.
Mom, what project involves files from 35 years ago?
You know, sweetie, you really don't wanna know.
Trust me. It's just business.
No, it's not just business when you're here on beautiful Saturdays.
This is your life.
Okay, Mom, we have come way too far for this.
You gotta tell me what's going on.
Has David told you anything?
Just that Ojai is in more financial trouble.
Yeah, that's true. The company is broke.
And so am I.
- What? - I made this terrible investment.
Oh, God, who am I kidding?
I lost it all in a Ponzi scheme.
- What? When? - A few months ago.
A few months... Why didn't you tell me?
I'm sorry. I should have told you, but I was afraid you would worry.
Oh, please, don't worry.
I have this idea of how to make Ojai solvent again.
And maybe if I am really lucky,
I will make up some of the personal money I lost.
Mom, I am your daughter and I love you.
Let me help you.
Okay.
Excuse me.
- What can I get for you? - Two gins.
Thank you.
Nora.
- I'm glad to see you. - Hello, Dennis.
I was so happy to get your call. Actually, I was just about to call you.
I figured as much.
When I turn the key, there's a whirring noise.
It's a brand-new battery, so it can't be that.
Is there a clicking sound?
No, it's not a clicking sound, it's more of a groan.
Could you just tell me when you could get here, please?
- In about three hours. - No. God, no. No, no.
I have a million things to do. I can't wait that long.
I fixed it.
Just a sec. What's that?
Yeah, it was the alternator. It's all fine now. Just hang up the phone.
Actually, my boyfriend fixed it. It was the alternator.
Everything's fine. So thank you and au revoir.
Sarah.
I cannot get by without you.
If you go back to France, my life's gonna fall apart.
The mailman just delivered it.
It's from the State Department.
Kiss me. I'm legal.
You're what? Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Really?
How's your mother?
- Ida's fine, thanks. - And the kids?
Everybody's fine, Dennis.
Is Tommy still up in Seattle?
That's none of your business.
And I find it kind of disturbing, you know that.
You seem tougher than you used to be. Colder.
I guess you've been through a lot the last few years.
Oh, really? You think?
Maybe cleaning up William's mess might have changed me?
I don't know. You seem to have adjusted well.
You've made peace with Holly Harper.
Let's just cut the small talk, all right?
Dennis, I don't know why you wanna buy the company so badly,
but it's not gonna happen.
- Even if I wanted to sell it, I couldn't. - Of course you could.
It belongs to you and your family.
And they all have shares. Do you expect me to convince them all to sell?
Yes, I do.
And you will, or I'll tell them all what happened.
I don't get it. My mom lives alone. She always has a ton of leftovers.
I know. It's mystifying.
- Here. - Thanks.
- Oh, hey. - Hey.
- Hi. - Nora, I'm so sorry to barge in like this.
- I told Justin... - I explained it to her.
If you didn't want me to use my key, you would have changed the locks.
No, I'm really glad to see you. Help yourselves.
I have some things to do upstairs first.
Wait, before you go upstairs,
Rebecca wants to talk to you about something.
Please, let it be good news. Yeah. What?
- What's the matter? - Nothing.
What is it, Rebecca?
Okay, well, Nora, you know how I felt when my mom
gave me that money from William's estate.
You know, I was angry and ashamed
and I kind of knew that everybody thought I didn't deserve it.
- No one thought that. - Nora, it was $2 million.
Full disclosure, it was a little excessive.
Exactly. Which is why I gave it to you to hold on to.
- But I know what I wanna do with it now. - Really? What?
Well, my mom and I have come a long way since then
and I think I wanna give it to her and Ojai.
How much of it do you wanna give to her?
- All of it. - What?
Ma, look, you know I stay out of the whole Ojai thing,
but we know the company's in bad shape.
Yeah, and we just found out about Narrow Lake thing...
Yeah, which blows my mind. How come you didn't tell us about that?
Well, we don't know where Narrow Lake... It may not even exist.
Exactly. See, this is why I wanna give her the money.
So it'll give her the time to figure it out.
You know, she has a strong hunch about this
and I really want to support her.
Has your mother agreed to this?
I haven't told her yet. I kind of wanted to take care of this part first.
Rebecca, what you wanna do is admirable. Honey, it's really admirable.
But I have to tell you, the company is in a very precarious situation
and anything could happen. Anything.
I really don't want you to gamble away your future.
Mom, this is Rebecca's money, all right? She wants to help out Holly.
I'd do the same thing in a heartbeat. I thought you'd be all over this.
Well, I just wasn't expecting this. It's out of the blue is all.
Mom, what's the matter with you?
Nothing is the matter. Nothing. I'm crabby. I'm fine.
Sorry.
Sorry, I...
Of course. I will... I'll take care of it. Whatever you want.
I have to say at this point, I am really listening to these terms.
So we've got about 50 members of the Burbank Boosters Club.
Okay.
Very receptive to your message about job creation.
Oh, if you're gonna talk about job creation, I might listen.
I'm just so proud to be working with you, Mrs. Walker-McCallister.
Thanks. You know, you can call me Kitty.
And you too, Mr. Walker.
Oh, I'm not working today. I'm just carrying Kitty's water.
Oh, okay.
- That's a figure of speech, Brad. - Oh, okay.
- But actually, I'm a little thirsty. - I only brought one.
That's okay. You know what? He's my brother so it's okay.
Yeah. Great. So why don't you go ahead and introduce Kitty?
Sure. Got it.
I don't know why you think your staffs not fun.
Welcome to the Burbank Boosters Club.
Now, I'm very pleased to introduce our speaker for today,
the next United States senator from the state of California,
Kitty McCallister.
Yes.
- What the hell is that? - I don't know.
- What do I do? - Say something.
- No, what do l...? - Just take control. Calm them.
- Good morn... - Go home!
America for Americans. America for Americans.
America for Americans.
Sarah, you need to call me the minute you get this message.
Somehow Robert and I got all tangled up in Luc's immigration problems
and it's turned into a huge mess.
So put on your clothes and call me, please.
Oh, I'm sorry. I guess I get a little touchy when I'm accused of corruption.
Have we figured out where this is coming from?
Half the right-wing websites have posted it without sourcing.
Wow, look at this. "Mac and Cat pull strings for sister's boy-toy."
- They called me Cat? - Yeah.
Well, now I really hate them.
Now, you're sure that Sarah never asked you to reach out on Luc's behalf?
- No, and I never offered. - What about you?
What? No, no. The only thing I did was I called Mario
to see if he could look into it. He's an immigration attorney at my firm.
Get him on the phone. I wanna talk to him.
I already left a message. He hasn't called me back.
Look at this. This one posted Luc's passport photo.
Why do you think they put him in a beard?
Well, because he's Fidel Castro's illegitimate son.
- What? - Unbelievable. They have no shame.
This is anonymous character assassination. Plus guilt by association.
It's just the conservative purity police
trying to purge the party of lily-livered Republican moderates.
Well, they're gonna have to decide,
because I can't be lily-livered and Hitler all at the same time.
No, I'm lily-livered. You are Hitler.
Every website is linked to every other website and blog.
It just spreads exponentially.
Oh, my God. Trudy's Truths.
Trudy...? Trudy what? T-R-U-D-Y?
Yeah, she was an assistant at my law firm. She used to pray I wouldn't be gay.
Spends her weekends in the desert
securing the Mexican border from alien invaders.
She started it on a blog. She must've found out
that I called Mario for advice and made the rest up.
I think these elites who don't believe in our Constitution
and don't love this country
should follow the laws our soldiers fought and died for
and stop taking jobs away from Americans.
Wow, she's good. She had elites, the Constitution,
love of country, dead soldiers, immigration and jobs all in one sentence.
I am so getting her fired.
Don't, because then we're, you know, accused of silencing Trudy the Truthteller.
We need to prepare a statement, this is gonna spread to mainstream media.
You say "we," you're looking at me.
Well, yeah. I'm late for the motorcycle club.
And I have a flight to Sacramento in 20 minutes.
Wait. I don't even work here anymore.
You know, this is Sarah's prob... I shouldn't even be here, Kit.
Kevin, I need your help.
And when Sarah needed a favor, you sure hopped to it.
- Yeah, look how that turned out. - Just write the statement, please. Okay?
And I'll call you later.
- Yes, Mein Fuhrer. - Not funny.
- Holly. - Oh, hey, Nora.
Rebecca told me you were working.
I tried to call you. Why didn't you answer?
Yeah, thank you so much for facilitating all of this.
Why did you tell her?
I lost my money months ago. It's time that she knew...
No, I mean about the damn lake.
Oh, no. I didn't say one word about Dennis York.
I told you I wanted to keep the kids out of it. All of it.
Well, I'm sorry.
I didn't think it would be any harm to tell her about Narrow Lake.
I mean, that's good news.
What possible harm could come from that?
Holly, you met Dennis. Do I really have to answer that question?
I didn't realize that you had an objection.
I apologize.
Well, obviously you're not going to accept Rebecca's money, are you?
Well, yes, I am,
but I'm not gonna spend a penny of it until I'm sure she'll get it all back.
I can't believe you'd take your own child's money.
Nora, Rebecca and I have never had an easy relationship.
And how does this help your relationship?
I gave her the money.
The only reason that you have it is she was so mad at me at the time
that she refused to accept it.
This is not about $2 million.
This is about her accepting me again.
The only thing I don't understand is why you're so upset about it.
Is that because you're protecting Justin's interests?
Oh, this isn't about Justin. This has nothing to do with Justin.
- Then what is it? - It's nothing, all right? It's nothing.
I'm sorry. It's...
Whenever money's involved, things just get more complicated, that's all.
I'll talk to you later.
Maybe we could take a little trip to New York.
Oh, I'd take you to New York. I know all the best restaurants.
An art gallery. You'd love it.
I haven't been there in so long. It sounds so good.
Why are there so many people in front of your house?
God, I hope some celebutante hasn't moved onto my block.
- Excuse me. - Hey.
- What's going on here? - Hey. Hey.
You're Sarah Walker, right?
- And you're Luc Laurent? - What's going on?
Did you know Sarah was related to a senator?
- Wait, this is about Kitty? - Did you ask your sister to help you?
Help me with what?
- How long have you known Luc? - Let's go.
Did Kitty tell you she'd pull strings?
- Sarah is Kitty's sister. - Don't answer.
Why don't you want him to?
I don't know where you got your information.
My sister did not use any influence to help Luc.
- Turn the camera off. - How much older are you than Luc?
- Excuse me? - Do you always date younger men?
- Okay, you are starting to piss me off. - Forget it.
Is it true he wouldn't marry you? Had to go to your sister?
I'll shove that down your throat where it'll do some good.
- Oh, that's nice. - Is this what you do for a living?
Or is harassing private citizens your idea of fun?
It is people like you that give this country a bad name.
Thank you. Have a great day.
- Be sure to stretch. - Go, cougar.
Your attention, please. Welcome to Sea-Tac International Airport.
Please maintain visual contact of personal property at all times.
Thank you for your cooperation.
- Tommy. - Mom.
- Hi. - Hey.
You all right? What's with the sudden trip?
- I'm glad to see you. I'll tell you about it. - Okay.
Thanks.
Unattended vehicles are subject to search at any time.
So how are you?
How am I? Let's see.
Well, I'm pretty much treading water right now.
I got a job at a grocery wholesaler a few weeks ago.
Tommy, that's wonderful.
Really?
Back to the rose-colored glasses already?
What about Julia and Elizabeth? How's that?
Yeah, that's pretty much gone from bad to worse.
Julia will barely speak to me
and I'm getting less and less time with Elizabeth.
Yeah, I thought getting a job would help.
You know?
Show Julia that I've changed,
but, no, it's not.
Tommy, maybe it's time for you to come home.
Is that what this is about? Getting me to come home?
What, Mom? What...? What's going on?
I know you talk to Sarah all the time.
Did she tell you someone tried to buy Ojai Foods?
- Yeah. Obstfeld something or other. - Obstfeld.
Yeah, but that didn't happen.
No. But the Obstfeld Group was a front. It's Dennis York.
- Why? - I don't know.
Why would he wanna buy Ojai? It's never been in worse shape.
Tommy, have you ever heard of a place called Narrow Lake?
No.
Well, I've managed to talk Sarah down off the ledge,
because in addition to everything else, she wasn't aware he was a porn star.
He was a porn star?
Of course he wasn't a porn star. That's what they're saying.
Oh, my God. Thank God. Thank God he's not a porn star.
You know, I'm just... I'm still actually very surprised that...
That Miss Sarah La-Di-Da has not called me to apologize.
Well, keep in mind, it hasn't been a walk on the beach for her today either.
Okay, here she comes. Just... Please just be nice.
- Kitty's on the phone. - Oh, about time. Hey.
- Hey. How are you holding up? - Okay.
The kids called from Joe's. Cooper thinks it's awesome,
but Paige wants to expire from embarrassment.
- Business as usual. - No, Kitty, I wouldn't say that.
Well, you should be happy they're not drawing mustaches on your face.
I would prefer that than being called the "famous Pasadena cougar."
And for the record, I'm not that much older than Luc.
Maybe you should have thought of that when you called the man a douche bag.
What were you thinking?
You know what? Had I known that I was about to be swarmed by paparazzi, Kitty,
I might have been able to prepare a more appropriate response.
Right, because I have control over what the paparazzi does,
and besides, you know what? I did try to call, but you didn't answer.
- No, I was running at the time. - Well, that is not my fault, is it?
No, Kitty. Apparently, nothing is your fault.
There are so many people to hate in this.
Let's not waste time and energy hating each other, please.
Okay. Okay, you know what? Look, I totally agree.
Here's the thing, Sarah. The entire blogosphere is screaming
for Luc's visa to be revoked until there's an investigation.
And sooner or later, the State Department is gonna give in to the pressure.
Well, then fight them. Don't let them get away with it.
The best way to fight them is to hand it in voluntarily
and prove to them that we have nothing to hide.
- Okay, I'm hanging up now. - No, no, no.
Look, don't waste your breath, Kevin. We're not gonna do it.
Just tell her that I will drive down there,
we will sit down, Luc, Sarah and I, and we will discuss it.
Okay. She's gonna come over so she can talk.
No. She can't come over here.
Luc is much nicer than I am and I don't want him to cave.
- You have to go somewhere else. - Okay, fine. Mom's house. Two hours.
But I'm calling the nanny, so Sarah better be there.
- Mom's, two hours? - Okay.
Yeah, okay. But I'm not coming with.
- Oh, damn straight you are. - Yes, you are.
Haven't I suffered enough?
- No. - No.
- So where'd you see him? - At his hotel.
He wants Ojai, Tommy. He demanded that we sell it to him.
York is not the type to make idle threats.
I mean, I'd hate to think what kind of dirt he has on Dad.
I can't stand any more of William's scandals.
I want it to go away. I want William to stay buried.
Mom,
why'd you come here?
I can convince all the kids to sell except Sarah.
You know what Ojai means to her.
The two of you grew up in that company working for your father.
I'm afraid to even talk to her about it.
I need you to convince Sarah to sell.
Mom, I'm up here getting my life together
and you're dragging me back into this?
I don't ask you this lightly. I swear, I don't ask you this lightly.
I have no one else to turn to.
Holly just wants the money she thinks that's there.
It's not her family that's at risk, Tommy. It's ours.
Look, you want me to sell my Ojai shares, fine. I'll do it.
But I am not going down there.
Ojai Foods is ground zero for everything that went wrong in my life.
I'm sorry. I can't.
- Hey, where's Mom? - Good question.
Why is it so cold in here?
Because the thermostat was turned down to 50.
Nobody knows where Mom is, she's not answering her cell phone.
I'm a little worried.
I'm sure she hasn't been kidnapped, unless the guy's eco-conscious.
I'm telling you, I was here and she was like,
"Nothing's wrong." But something is wrong.
So I'm gonna stay here until she gets back.
You might wanna reconsider that.
There is gonna be some unpleasantness coming through that door any minute now.
What do you mean, "unpleasantness"?
- Where's Mom? - She's not here.
It's cold in here.
Sarah, look, I just wanna say I'm really sorry
for what you and Luc are going through.
Thanks, Justin.
- But can I ask you a question? - What's that?
Is Luc trying to get citizenship so he can buy the Lakers?
- No. - Okay. Yeah.
- Is he ambidextrous? - No, Justin.
Okay. Well, he probably never worked in a French brothel.
This is character assassination.
Hello.
- Hey. - Hey.
- Where's Mom? - She's not here.
- It's freezing in here. - Yeah.
Look at this. There's a "Free Luc Laurent" webpage.
You can buy, like, "Free Luc" T-shirts...
- Justin... - A coffee mug...
For the record, he's not going to jail, okay?
No, it means "free him from the claws of the oversexed housewife."
I guess that's me.
Okay, Kitty, would you please apologize to Sarah?
- Why? That's not my website. - I know. Just do it.
Okay. Okay, fine.
Sarah, I am very sorry that because of my campaign,
you got sucked up into this political firestorm
and you have had to pay a personal price through almost no fault of your own.
That's your apology?
You're unbelievable.
Unbelievable? Where the hell is my apology?
I am fighting for my political life
with a bunch of ultra-conservative yahoos who want my head
because you decided to fall in love with a guy who has immigration issues
and apparently, you never learned how to say "no comment."
- What...? - Okay, Sarah,
please just apologize to Kitty so we can move on.
No.
I don't even know why I'm here.
I'm sorry that Kitty has political problems,
- but they're not mine to solve. - Of course not.
She did just say she was sorry.
- Did not. - Technically, I heard "sorry."
- Well, I didn't mean it. - I didn't mean it either.
You know who deserves an apology here? Me.
There are two things... No.
Oh, Kevin. This is not about you. Honest to God.
I have made it clear. I want no part of two things:
Law and politics.
Both of which I've been doing all day for the two of you.
Have I heard a word of thanks? No.
Luc. Speaking of apologies, he's the one taking the most hits.
Yes. A poor innocent caught up in this insanity. I'm so sorry.
I need to talk to you.
Yeah. Hey, Luc, don't listen to all this stupid Internet chatter stuff.
Is everything okay?
Yeah, I'm sorry, but about this one thing, it's true.
Oh, please, God, let him be ambidextrous.
I'm sorry, Kitty. It's true about the maison de joie.
Whorehouse.
Well, after my father lost his job, my parents started to have problems.
So one day, they said to me that it's a good idea for a boy
to experience the city.
So they sent you to a whorehouse?
Well, no. They sent me to my Uncle Tony in Marseilles.
They thought Tony was an hotelier. And he owned his own hotel.
Well, I guess they weren't that far off.
I never lived in the...
- Whorehouse. - No, I just ran errands for people.
I'd bring cigarettes and wine.
Swept the floor and washed dishes.
I'm sorry, Sarah. I didn't know that it would ever matter to anyone.
No, come on. I'm sorry.
Luc, none of this is your fault.
As much as I would like to blame Kitty,
it's not her fault either.
Now she's furious at me. Kevin's furious at me.
This whole thing is such a disaster.
I don't know what to do.
See, none of this would ever happen if it weren't for me.
I cannot let this go on any longer.
I have to make it right.
Is this what you do for a living?
- Hey. - Hi.
Or is harassing private citizens your idea of fun?
You should turn that off because it's gonna make you crazy.
No. Well, did you hear the latest bombshell?
About the brothel?
Oh, my God. You already know about it?
- Is it true? - Apparently.
I mean, it's not as bad as it sounds,
but I'm telling you, Sarah is completely freaking out.
You better call her.
I know. I know I should, but I don't know what to say.
I mean, you know we can't control this crap that they put on the Internet.
And if we do some big sort of denial, it'll cross over into the mainstream media.
It's already crossed over to the mainstream media.
The networks are calling for an interview.
And I've just been told that Luc's visa has been revoked.
Great. Great. Of course. Of course.
He's only got three weeks left so he's right back where he started.
And l... You know what...?
What do you think we should do?
We could schedule on-camera interviews tomorrow for both of us.
Tell the truth, defend the family,
demand Luc's visa be re-instated and talk about what you believe in.
Hope that another scandal comes along and makes people forget about it.
I love you.
- You think they'll believe us? - I don't know.
I mean, they've done a good job of spinning it,
even though we have the truth on our side.
It's Kevin.
Hi, Kevin.
No, you're kidding me.
Well, no, no. I'm on my way. I'Il... I will meet you there. I will meet you there.
- What...? - I gotta go.
- Where are you going? - LAX. I gotta go.
Okay.
Okay, hit really hard. One, two, three.
There it goes. Right through the middle.
- Almost. - My goodness. Let's see where it went.
Hey, Ma. Coffee.
- Where is it? - Here.
Is it there? There it is.
Oh, my goodness. You have to hit it in that hole now.
Okay. Yeah, that's a good idea.
Move it where you want it.
Oh, God, Tommy, she's so adorable. And she's so smart.
- So smart. - I know. I feel so lucky.
You know what the hardest part is?
Feeling like she deserves more.
Oh, Tommy, stop it.
To her, you're perfect. You are her one and only perfect daddy.
And then she'll hit adolescence and discover all your flaws.
Yeah. In Dad's case, the flaws just keep on coming, don't they?
Yeah.
He was a whole lot less than we all deserved.
You know, the hardest thing about letting go
is letting go of him.
The hope
that he was the father that I wanted him to be.
You know, we've all been telling ourselves this story, this big fairy tale,
that the wonderful business that William built
somehow made up for all the pain he caused.
That the very best part of William was his damn company. It's not true.
The very best part of William is you.
All of his children. And I don't want you to suffer anymore.
I don't want the sins of the father to haunt you anymore, Tommy.
If I come down,
help convince the others to sell the company, is that...?
Is that the end of it?
Yes. Short of burning it to the ground.
Okay.
I guess it's time for me to come home.
Thank you.
Attention travelers, please keep all carry-on items with you at all times.
It has everything but the fog.
- Why would there be fog? - In the movie Casablanca,
there's fog when they say goodbye.
Looks like we're in our own movie.
Oh, my God. He's actually filming us.
Stop. Just ignore him.
Wonder how they'll twist this around. They'll probably say you're dumping me.
Just don't look at him. Just look at me.
It's time, Sarah. Gotta go.
I know.
I gotta go through security.
You gonna be okay here?
As long as you don't say, "Here's looking at you, kid."
- I love you. - I love you too.
Okay, go.
Your attention, please.
Thank God I caught you. Kit, they're in here.
- Kevin. I'm sorry, I have to go. - Sit down. You're not going anywhere.
- Kevin. - Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
L... I can't believe I found you.
Do you know how many bars there are in this airport?
- What are you doing here, Kitty? - Oh, Sarah.
I could never let you guys do this.
- Oh, Kitty. - Oh, Sarah. I'm so sorry.
- No, I'm sorry. I'm sorry. - No, I'm sorry.
I never should have let these crazy people walk all over us.
- I should've kept my mouth shut. - No, you shouldn't. It's all...
Girls, just get on with it. Please.
Right. Right, listen, Luc. I don't want you to leave.
You have three more weeks on your old visa
and I think that we should totally fight this.
I'm sorry, Kitty, but I think I've caused enough damage like that.
Listen, Kitty, I don't think I'm up for the fight.
These people, they're relentless.
And then there's a zillion crazies out there making up all kinds of lies.
- Kevin? - Yeah.
Get me the douche bag.
Okay, those are four words I never wanna hear from my sister.
- Kevin. - What?
- Just go. Get him. - Okay. Fine.
Kitty, what are you doing?
Well, you know what? They hijacked our story and we're gonna reclaim it.
Even if it's just for us.
So, what, you're gonna tell that guy?
Yeah, why not? Why not?
I might be one voice in the cyber-wilderness,
but better one than nothing.
He made me promise you wouldn't break his camera.
I'll try to control myself.
Give me a break. This isn't fun for me.
Okay, let's roll it.
Hi, I'm Kitty Walker-McCallister and this, this is Sarah Walker.
Hi.
And she is a professional businesswoman,
taxpayer, soccer mom and my sister.
And this, this is Luc. Luc Laurent.
And yes, he is a French citizen and an artist
who takes no jobs from Americans.
He loves Sarah and Sarah loves him.
Hey.
That was a big scene at the airport today.
You saw it?
It's popping up everywhere. I think you're about to go viral.
You might wanna rephrase that.
Right, that didn't come out like I wanted it to.
So how are you?
How's life? I didn't wanna wake you when I came in last night.
All hell broke loose this morning. I feel like I haven't seen you in two days.
Well, remember that meeting I had with my boss the other day?
Yeah.
He closed the restaurant for good. We're out of business, so that's how I am.
Oh, no.
I'm so sorry. Are you okay?
Yeah, I mean, the timing could not suck more, but I'm okay.
Can I offer you some advice based on the last two days?
- Don't answer the phone. - No, I'm actually being serious.
I swore up and down I was through with politics and lawyering.
And I've done nothing but for the past two days.
But I'm glad I did. Because I'm good at it.
And I wasn't working for anyone else.
I was doing it for me and for my family. For love.
It's time for you to open your own restaurant.
Kevin, that's a lovely thought, but collectively, we're jobless.
We spent the majority of our savings trying to make a baby.
I know it'll be hard,
but we'll figure out a way to make it work.
It's time for you to start dreaming big.
And do what you wanna do.
And you're ready for it.
And you know I'm right.
Kevin, look at you. You're making moves in the background for everybody else.
You need to start doing what you love.
I just need to figure out exactly what that is first.
Well, take your time.
I can pick up some catering shifts to tide us over.
- Wait, did you watch all of it? - No, not yet.
Oh, well, then you haven't seen the best part.
Now, see, we come from a very close-knit family
and we all look out for one another.
And over the last few days, I have had to watch Sarah and Luc suffer
because I happen to be running in a very noxious political climate.
Listen, I'm sorry. Can I just...? Can I just interrupt?
- Sure. - Kitty never intervened on Luc's behalf.
No. And you can just look at my platform to see
that I actually believe in legal immigration.
I mean, in fact, I believe in increasing our border control.
Which I disagree with, actually.
Well, yes, of course you do, because my sister is a flaming Liberal.
But if you heard her views on amnesty... I mean, they're crazy.
- Sarah. - Not crazy, but very, very conservative.
Conservative. Yes. I'm a Conservative. I know who I am.
So if you are looking for a person who believes in all that claptrap...
- Claptrap? Sarah... - This is your woman.
You know what? You know what? Let me interrupt for a second.
You see, this right here is what's so great about our family.
We can despise each other's political opinions,
but we don't despise each other.
Oh, that's right. That's right.
And that is the spirit that I wanna take to Washington.
You see, if I ever get to the point where my ideology is so rigid
that I can't see another point of view
or if my loyalty lies with my party instead of my country,
well, then I want the voters to send me home.
And a couple more things, she loves to be called Cat.
So please do that as often as possible. And she's also very generous.
So, ladies and gentlemen, please step up to the bar,
because drinks and food are on her tab.
Thanks, Cat.
You wanna get a drink?
