Kevin: Is it a Ferris wheel? Olivia: No, how could I fit a Ferris wheel through the door? Scotty: Well, you said it was something we'd really like. Olivia: I also said it was something that I can fit into my backpack. Scotty: Oh, my God. You got us front-row tickets to Coldplay at Caesars Palace in Vegas? Kevin & Scotty: Ohhhh! Olivia: No, no, no, no. You're never gonna guess, so you might as well just open your eyes. Kevin: You got an 87 on your spelling quiz?! Olivia, that is fantastic! Scotty: Practically. Kevin: What do you mean, practically? She's only been reading ten weeks. Scotty: No, she spelled "practically." You spelled "practically." Kevin: And "realistic." I'm so excited, I could burst into a million pieces! Olivia: You guys are so immature. Scotty: You know what? This calls for breaking all the rules. How about a before-dinner raspberry cream gelato? Kevin: Ohhhhhhhhhhhh! Scotty: Or is that too immature? Olivia: Very funny. Scotty: Come on. Let's get some. Olivia: Okay. Kevin: Sarah, O. aced her spelling quiz. She even got "beginning" right, and you know how tricky that gets right around the double "n"? Sarah: I'm... I'm at Kitty's, and I'm worried about her. You should see this place. It's a mess. And she's doing all the things that she does when she's depressed. Kevin: She's sitting around watching reruns of "L.A. law"? Sarah: No, worse. "Full house." Kevin: Ooh. Well, if your bone marrow had just recovered after rejecting itself, don't you think you'd hunker down to get your strength back? Sarah: No wonder she's glum. She's living on quinoa and wheat berries. Not even any wine in the house. Kevin: Hang on. That's Scotty's phone. Oh, it's mom calling for Scotty. Mom, Olivia got an 87 in her spelling quiz. Nora: Oh, my gosh. That's wonderful. What? Look, when she comes over today, I'm gonna give her a special treat. Kevin: Slow down. She already got a gelato out of Scotty. Nora: Well, that's actually who I'm calling... Sarah: Maybe I should take her out to the farmers' market... Nora: Lily needs to have lamb kidneys once a week. Sarah: Or roast duckling. It's her favorite, and if you cook it right, you can get some of the fat out. Nora: If he knew of butcher that specializes in obscure internal organs. Kevin: Why are you indulging the spoiled bitch? Give her a bowl of kibble. Sarah: Kevin! I can't believe you just said that. I-I'm sorry that I called. Kevin: No, no, no, Sarah, I was talking to... ugh. Nora: So, you know... Oh, my gosh. Oh, gosh. I... you know what? I don't know where she is. I swear to goodness, if she's chewing on my turkish rug again, I'm gonna sell her for glue. I gotta go. I don't know what she's doing. Okay, bye. Kevin: Olivia, thank the lord you don't have any actual Walker blood running through your veins. Brian: Hello, Olivia. Liv, don't you recognize me? Olivia: Brian? Brian: Yeah, it's me. I'm back. Olivia: Oh, my God. I can't believe you're here. Scotty: Olivia? Olivia: Kevin, Scotty, this is... Brian, my brother. I haven't seen him since I was... Brian: Since you were five. Kevin: Hi. I'm Kevin Walker. Scotty: Hi, Scotty Wandell. Brian: Brian Garcia. Good to meet you. Olivia: Where have you been? Brian: A lot of places. I ended up in the war in Afghanistan. As soon as I got back, I started looking for you. Olivia: I have so much to tell you. Can I show him my room? Or maybe we can take him to grandma Nora's later. Tuesday's always grandma Nora day. Brian: Actually, I have to get to work. I just came by to give you my number. Call me, okay? And I'll see you again soon. Olivia: I'll call you tonight. I promise. Brian: Good to meet you guys. Kevin & Scotty: Yeah. Kevin: Um... I'm gonna go talk to him. Scotty: Hi, wow. Kevin: Uh, Brian? Look, obviously we're really happy that Olivia's found a member of her family, but, um... Have you spoken with children's services? Do they know you're making contact with Olivia? Brian: Not yet. Kevin: Right. Brian: I wanted to see if she'd be happy to see me before I told them I want her to live with me. Kevin: T... I'm sorry, to live with you? Brian: Mm-hmm. Kevin: Brian, it's great that you'll be a part of Olivia's life, but we've adopted her. She's our daughter. Brian: Wow. That's... that's taking charity all the way. Kevin: Charity? Brian: I can't tell you how grateful I am to you guys for taking care of her. But she'll be fine now, because I'm back and I'm filing to be her guardian so we can be a family again. Kevin: You told us this was a done deal! Jill: I told you that we had one more court date before finalizing the adoption. Kevin: Yes, which you said was a formality. I believe "celebration" was your exact word. Scotty: You said Olivia's brother was completely out of the picture, that you've been looking for him for three years. Jill: Please understand. When a child ages out of the system, the department does not keep any more records. With the different last names and the very limited resources, it fell through the cracks. And for that, I am truly, truly sorry. Scotty: You're sorry? We're gonna lose her, and you're sorry? Kevin: If this guy cares so much about his little sister, where has he been all these years? Jill: In the army. Kevin: In the a... what, they don't have phones in the army? Jill: Look, normally this case would take six to eight weeks to be heard, but we messed up. I understand, and we don't want to put you or Olivia through any more than we have to. I've called Judge Forrest and asked her to make room in her schedule for tomorrow. If you'd like to have the case seen then, we can... Kevin: Yes, absolutely. I don't want this hanging over Olivia for six to eight weeks. Scotty: Is she going to have to testify? Jill: Well, we try not to put the child in that position. However, the court will give weight to what she has to say, especially a child as old as 9. Kevin: So who talks to her? Jill: I will, and if she has something she'd like to share, I'll let you know. Kevin: She's at Nora's right now. We thought it'd be better if she stayed there until this was over. Jill: I'll give her a call there. Scotty: What are our chances? Jill: Well, um... It's entirely up to the judge. It's very subjective, so she'll decide what she believes is in the best interest of the child. Kevin: We're in the best interest of the child. We're not gonna lose her. Jill: All right. Look, I'm gonna get back to the office. I will give Judge Forrest a call and let her know to fit you in tomorrow, and if you need anything, just call. Scotty: Thank you. Jill: Good luck. Kevin: Thank you. Scotty: We're doing the right thing, right... Fighting this? Kevin: What do you mean? Scotty: I mean, he's her brother. Kevin: Yeah, he's her brother, and we're her fathers. Olivia: Why couldn't he have come before, before I met Kevin and Scotty? Why is everything so messed up? Nora: Olivia, um, were you close with your brother, Olivia? Olivia: I don't remember much. Well, he went to Afghanistan, like you, Uncle Justin. Does that make him a hero? Justin: Uh, yeah. Yeah, absolutely. Nora: Olivia, are you thinking that maybe you'd like to live with your brother? Justin: Mom. Nora: Oh, I-if you feel that way, honestly, you can tell us. Olivia: I don't know. How could I do that to Kevin and Scotty? Nora: Sweetheart, listen... Kevin and Scotty love you. They... they want what's best for you. Olivia: And then there's Brian. He's my brother. I don't wanna hurt him, either. What difference does it make what I think anyway? Nora: Well, it makes a difference. It makes a big difference. That's why Jill talked to you about it. What you think and feel makes a difference. Everyone wants to know what you have to say. Olivia: I already told Jill, I don't know what I want to say. Nora: Would you like to invite your brother over today... Justin: Mom. Nora: So that you two could get to know each other a little better? Olivia: Yeah. Maybe it would help. Nora: All right. Okay. Then that's what we'll do, right after we finish this. Kevin: You invited her brother to your house? Nora: Well, actually, Olivia invited him. Justin: It's because you decided to tell her it was all up to her, mom. Nora: She should have a voice in this. Right now, she's confused. She doesn't know what to think. Kevin: Mom, you have to cancel this. You should not have put the burden to decide on her. Nora: But she's already burdened, Kevin. She feels, no matter what happens, somebody's gonna be hurt, and it's gonna be her fault. Scotty: Which is exactly why it shouldn't be her decision. Kevin: And what if she decides for the wrong reasons... Out of guilt or just because he's her brother? Justin: Mom, not everybody who goes to Afghanistan is a hero. All right? Trust me. We had our fair share of dirtbags. Kevin: You know what, mom? Please stay out of this. Don't you have a lost dog to find? Nora: Yes, Kevin, I have a lost dog to find. And don't change the subject. Look, whether Olivia's brother is a... is a hero or a dirtbag is irrelevant. She has a right to know him. Scotty: What can she possibly learn about him in half an hour? This isn't speed dating. Kevin: She has been kicked around like a lost dog since she was 3 years old. We're offering her a home and safety for the first time in her life, and what, some 23-year-old kid's gonna drop from the sky and just take that way from her? Whose side are you on? Nora: I'm on Olivia's side, Kevin. This is her life. Kevin: Yeah. Nora: She has a right to participate in it. It's Kitty. Kevin: No! No. Don't talk to her about this. And don't tell Sarah either, 'cause she'll just tell her, and then they'll both flip out, and I have plenty of people flipping out right now. Nora: Where are you going? Kevin: I'm going to prep for this case. I hope I can take care of it without dragging Olivia through it. Kevin: Your honor, thank you for taking the time to hear us at such short notice in your chambers. I'm going to move that Mr. Garcia's motion of custody be dismissed. Mr. Wandell and I were one formality away from finalizing our adoption of Olivia. Both the court and the department of children's services had completely signed off on us, and their trust had proven well-founded. Since Olivia's been with us, she has come out of her shell, she's laughing, she's learned to read. She's in a safe, stable home in which she's thriving. We both believe, uh, that a change in custody at this time would be catastrophically disruptive to her. Thank you. Judge Forrest: These are all valid points, which I will want to hear more about. I would also like to hear Mr. Garcia's case. I'm going to deny your motion to dismiss and proceed with this hearing. Would counsel for Mr. Garcia like to begin? Brian's Lawyer: Yes. Thank you, Your Honor. We'll be presenting letters from Mr. Garcia's employer, his landlord, and his former commanding officer in the United States army. But first... Mm-hmm. My client has a statement he'd like to make, if that's all right. Judge Forrest: Of course. Mr. Garcia. Brian: Your Honor, I'm making this opening statement because I want to talk to you from my heart. I had some dark days in my teens, but the army got me together, and now I have a good job, and I know in my heart that I am ready to take care of Olivia now. Maybe Mr. Walker and Mr. Wandell have more money than I do, maybe they can buy Olivia nice things that I can't, but... The lifestyle they've chosen, that's not the values that I believe in and not the values I want my sister to be raised with. It's wrong for two men to be raising a child. Kevin: Uh, Your Honor, may I speak? Judge Forrest: Yes, Mr. Walker. Kevin: I'm sure Your Honor's aware, both state and federal statues prevent the court from making any custody decision based on religion, ethnicity, or lifestyle. Judge Forrest: Mr. Walker, I can assure you, I'm well-aware of those statutes. Continue, Mr. Garcia. Brian: I was almost done, Your Honor. I just wanted to say that I'm hoping you'll read what the people in my life have to say about me and let my sister come home.

Nora: Kevin, please call me back. Scotty told me what happened in court today. I'm... Ooh, I have to take this call. So, um, I love you. Call me back. Justin: Hey, mom. Nora: Hi, Brody. No, I'm fine. Lily's fine. Justin: Mom. Nora: You know, I can't talk right now. So, uh, call me back. Bye. Ugh. Justin: Ugh. Nora: I can't believe I haven't told him yet. Justin: God. What a day, huh? Nora: Yeah. Justin: What's all this? Brian's not still coming, is he? Nora: Yes. He'll be here in a few hours. Justin: What? Mom, after what he said in court? He's a bigot. Nora: Just because someone has different values than you, it does not disqualify him from being a parent. Justin: You don't give up, do you, mom? Nora: He is Olivia's brother. We should all get to know him. Justin: Okay, there are some people that you can't make peace with. Nora: We've had this conversation before, Justin. Justin: Yeah, we have, when you thought sanctions or some such crap would stop people from flying planes into buildings, mom! Nora: So if this turns out to be a war, then the collateral damage will be Olivia. Justin: Okay, fine. You know what? If he's coming, I'm talking to him man-to-man. Nora: No, you're not. Justin: Yes, I know how to get through to this type of guy, and if you can trust Olivia, you can trust me. Justin: Brian, right? Hey, I'm, uh, I'm Justin Walker. Come on in. Brian: Nice to meet you, Justin. Justin: Nice to meet you, too. Brian: Nice house. Justin: Oh, thanks. So I-I heard you, uh, you did a tour in Afghanistan. Brian: Yeah. Liv told me you were there, too. Justin: I was, I was. Brian: Where is she? Justin: Oh. Uh, she... she's upstairs. My, uh, my mom went to get her. Listen, I... I heard what you said to the judge. And, um, you know, who knows if... if my brother weren't gay, maybe I'd feel the same way, but... Brian: I really don't want to talk about that. Justin: Okay. Look, um... I know you haven't seen Olivia in a long time. But the truth is, when she came here, she was in pretty bad shape. So I was wondering if you'd like to take your time and... and maybe see how happy she is and... and how great Kevin and Scotty are with her. Brian: I appreciate all of that. But I'm her brother, her blood. Justin: Of course. And, you know, you'll be in her life forever. Brian: Generous of you to say so. Justin: Yeah, I-I didn't... I didn't mean it like that. Brian: This is about how I want my sister to be raised. I'm not the only person in the world who thinks what they're doing is wrong. Justin: So tell me something. Would you be doing this if Kevin and Scotty weren't gay? Brian: I told you, I don't want to talk about it. Justin: I'll get Olivia. Olivia: So what ever happened to Aunt Gloria? Brian: I don't know. We kind of lost touch a long time ago. Nora: Great. You found everything. But let me get this. Brian: This looks great. Thanks. Nora: Sure. Olivia: Brian... Nora: Olivia, look, go ahead. Talk to him. He's your brother. You can ask him anything. Olivia: If I were to live with you, I would still be able to visit Kevin and Scotty, right? I mean, I could still go over to their house and do my homework in the caffee, couldn't I? Brian: Kevin and Scotty have been... very nice foster parents. But you and I are going to be a family now. Olivia: Grandma Nora, I need you to give me a ride. Nora: Where to? Olivia: To the group home. Nora: Oh, Olivia. No. Olivia: I hate that everyone's fighting over me. Did you hear that? Nora: What? Lily! Lily! Hi! Oh, Lily. Oh, my goodness. I missed you so much. I was so worried, you big, stupid, inconsiderate piece of poop. Oh, goodness. Olivia: Who's that? Nora: I don't know. Olivia: So we don't know who she is? Nora: No. No... no collar, no tags, but hungry and stinks. After you finish eating, we're gonna do a nice long soak. Olivia: And what are we gonna do with her after the bath? Nora: Well, I don't know. I'll, um, I'll take down the dog lost fliers and put up dog found fliers. Olivia: What if nobody calls? Nora: Well, then I hope she's happy living in a place with a pool and some very tasty azaleas. Olivia: I need a ride. Nora: Honestly, honey, you don't have to go back to the group home. Olivia: Not to the home. Sarah: Excuse me. Kevin. Justin just told us. Why didn't you say anything? Kevin: Because I didn't want to put you through it, and they're making the decision now. Kitty: Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Sarah: I can't believe this. Kitty: Well, what... How long have you been out here? Kevin: Five or six hours. I don't know. Scotty: Kevin, they're ready. Kitty: Oh, no. Sarah: We'll... we'll come in with you. Kevin: No, no, you can't. It's parties involved only. Can you... Kitty: All right. Well, go, go, go, go. Good luck. Kevin: Thank you. Judge Forrest: I've heard compelling arguments on both sides of this very complicated matter. In reaching my decision, I've had to weigh the... Kevin: Olivia? Brian: Liv? Court Clark: Your Honor, this is the minor in the case and the defendant's mother. She insisted on seeing you right away. Judge Forrest: That's all right. They can come in. Nora: Thank you, Your Honor. Um, I'm Nora Walker, and this is Olivia, and she has something she wants to say if that's all right. Brian's Lawyer: Your Honor, if we're going to hear a rehearsed speech - coached by a member of Mr. Walker's family... Olivia: Nobody coached me. Judge Forrest: We'd like very much to hear what you have to tell us. May I ask you to address your remarks to the court? Olivia: I was happy when Brian came back, but I wasn't happy when he said that I couldn't see Kevin and Scotty and everybody if I went to live with him. I wish he could get it about the Walkers... They let everybody into their kitchen, even scruffy old dogs they've never even seen before. And if he let me be one of them, then he could be one of them, too. It's like, if Nora's my grandma, and he's my brother, then Nora's his grandma, too. And... I just hope he thinks about it. Judge Forrest: Thank you very much, Olivia. I am grateful we were able to hear from this very articulate young lady. This has been a difficult matter, and it is my great hope that the two parties will someday find common ground. I'm deciding against the petition and confirming the existing custody arrangement. Olivia: Brian... Nora: Brian. Do you always storm off like this when things don't go your way? Brian: You guys all got to her. I didn't have a chance. Nora: No one got to her. That was Olivia speaking from her heart. Didn't you see her face, how hard it was on her? Look, as I see it, you've got two choices. You can either storm off into the sunset or you can be the big brother she thinks you are and come through for her. Think about it. But don't think too long. When you're 9 years old, a day is forever. ♪ Will You Catch Me Then ♪ by Garrison Starr ♪ Listen Olivia: He's not coming, is he? Scotty: He might. It's not so late. Kevin: Even if he doesn't come tonight, he'll come around someday. Olivia: What if he still doesn't? Scotty: We'll call him and we'll invite him over again. Kevin: We'll just keep trying. I promise. He's... he's your brother, no matter what. Scotty: Right now he's angry and he's upset. But I know that he loves you. Kevin: We're so proud of you, O. You were amazingly brave today. Olivia: I'm not that hungry. I think I'm gonna go to bed. Scotty: Okay. Kevin: Look, why don't we all go up and read a story? Scotty: Yeah, we'll finish "Phantom Tollbooth." Kevin: Ooh. Brian: Olivia. Olivia: Brian. Brian: I hope it's okay that I came by. Scotty: Of course. Kevin: Of course it's okay. Scotty: Are you hungry? Brian: Actually, yeah. I am. Olivia: Scotty is the best cook ever.

Justin: Hey, sorry we're late. My support group went over. Scotty: At ease. We don't open for another hour. Zach: I'm gonna go get my apron, then I'm all yours. Scotty: So you picked up Zach again from his meeting. That was nice. Justin: Yeah, well, the, uh, the bus takes twice as long, and I figured while I was here, I'll hang Olivia's shelves. Scotty: Oh, you don't have to do that. Kevin will be back any minute. Justin: Kevin? Scotty: Yeah. He's all handy now. I showed him how to use a glue gun. Justin: Right. Uh, where's the toolbox? Scotty: Underneath the sink. Justin: Great. Zach: All right. I'm officially on the clock. Where do you need me? Scotty: Uh, why don't you help Dennis with the salad Greens? Zach: You got it, boss. Scotty: Great. Justin: Hey. Thanks a lot, Scotty, for helping him out. I really appreciate it. Scotty: I wish all my employees had his work ethic. If you can chauffer him around, let him sleep on your couch, it's the least I can do. Justin: How do you think he's doing? Scotty: Good, I think. Yeah, I think it's good for him to have the routine, camaraderie. I think he misses it, you know, the marines? I think he's happy to have structure in his life again. Justin: Uh, where are the shelves? Scotty: Uh, upstairs, Olivia's room. Justin: Olivia's room. Got it. Scotty: Thank you. Scotty: How's that look? Olivia: "Olivia Carla Salazar, born July 11, 2001, was placed for adoption"... Kevin: Go on. That's right. Jill: Wow. You're making a lot of progress with your reading, Olivia. Olivia: They got me a tutor and they quiz me, like, every five seconds. Scotty: She's exaggerating. It's more like every ten seconds. Kevin: Yeah. Olivia: "Placed in the home of"... Hey, look. Scotty signed where it says "full name of male applicant," and Kevin signed where it says "full name of female applicant." Kevin: Good catch. Jill: Yeah, our placement forms haven't quite caught up with the times. Kevin: Mm. Olivia: "Kevin Herbert Walker"? That's your middle name? I'm gonna be calling you Herb from now on. Kevin: Are we done yet? Jill: Actually, I think you are. Yeah, all it takes now is a quick appearance before the judge, which is more of a celebration than anything else, but it's official. Olivia: No more weekends only? Jill: Nope. You are a family now. Kevin: Hee. Jill: So, Olivia, are you excited to start a new school on Monday and meet new friends? Olivia: Yeah, I guess it'll be fun. I just wish I could bring Zemulon. Jill: Oh, is this the famous gecko I've been hearing about? Scotty: Oh, yeah. Jill: It's nice to finally meet you, sir. Well, if you need anything, you know where to reach me. Other than that, I'd say, my work here is done. Olivia: Bye, Jill. Jill: Bye, sweetie. Scotty: Bye, Jill. Thank you. Jill: Mwah. Congratulations. Kevin: Thanks, Jill. Jill: Bye. Kevin: Bye. Olivia: What are you guys smiling about? Kevin: Because we thought you might like to record our new answering machine message. Olivia: Really? Kevin: Yes, really. Scotty: So just start talking... after the beep. Answering Machine: Record your greeting after the tone. Olivia: Hi, you've reached the home of Kevin and Scotty and Olivia and Zemulon. Kevin: Of course. Olivia: Please leave a message after the beep. Kevin: Perfect. Scotty: Perfect. Good work. Kevin: Hey, guys. Did you have fun shopping? What is that? Scotty: This is the sovereign kingdom of Zemulonia. Olivia: That's not what it's called. It's called Gecko Town. Scotty: Right, Gecko Town. Population... one extremely lucky gecko. Kevin: Wow. How long did that take to build? Scotty: All day. How was work? Kevin: Fine. I thought we were gonna go shopping for school supplies. Scotty: Well, we were, but we kind of got carried away with Gecko Town. Olivia: It's amazing, huh? Kevin: Yeah, but don't you want to be prepared for classes on Monday? Scotty: Scotty said we could go later. Look, Zemulon, it's a swimming pool. Scotty: We... we can go together tomorrow. Olivia: I have a great idea. Popsicles. Kevin: Um, before dinner? Olivia: No, we can use the wood part for a diving board. Scotty: Oh, how about an emery board? I've got some in the bathroom underneath the sink. Olivia: Emery board? Kevin: You use an emery board? Scotty: Your middle name is Herbert? Oh, better yet. There is a pink foot file. You can use that. Olivia: Perfect. Kevin: Did you even leave the apartment? Scotty: No, but I thought it was important for her to, you know, make herself feel at home. Kevin: Well, she's definitely doing that. Scotty: Kevin, relax. She is so happy right now. That's the most important thing. Let her make a footprint, okay? Kevin: A footprint's one thing, but look at this place. She's like sasquatch. Olivia: Got it. Kevin: So do I get a tour of Gecko Town? Olivia: Sorry. Zemulon's not accepting any visitors right now. Kevin: Aww. Kevin: And then how cool is this? An 8-piece multipurpose compass and geometry set. Even cooler... unicorn stickers. You want a few for Paige? Luc: If only stickers could solve my problem. Paige wouldn't even talk to me this morning. Kevin: At least she spent the night in her own bed. Olivia spent the night in her fort. Luc: A fort? Kevin: Yeah. We spent all this money fixing up her room, and she's just not interested in it. It's all about Gecko Town now. You want a coffee? Luc: Please. Kevin: So what are you gonna do about Paige? Luc: I don't know. I think I'm gonna call Sarah. Kevin: N-no, absolutely not. That's like admitting defeat. Look, if the women of this family leave town and we fall apart, game over. Luc: Ah, speak of the devil. Kevin: Bad news? Luc: "Just give her the money. I will explain when I get home." I can't believe this. She's just completely undermined my authority. Kevin: Well, don't lose your resolve. Look, Sarah is out of town. You're in charge now. Sarah: I gotta take this. Hey, babe. Is everything okay? Luc: No, no, no. It makes it very hard for me to be the parent if Paige knows she can just go around me.. Kevin: Tell her she's undermining your authority. Sarah: Oh, honey, I'm sorry. Luc: Yeah, you're undermining my authority, Sarah. Sarah: Look, things have been crazy here. It's Evan's birthday this afternoon, and mom thinks Kitty's joined the CIA. Luc: Your mom thinks Kitty is in the CIA. Kevin: Well, that's ridiculous. I can get a secret out of Kitty with a glass of chardonnay. Luc: Just tell me what it's for. Sarah: I can't. I... I'm not trying to undermine you. I promise you, I'm not. I... okay, listen. It's for a bra. Luc: A bra? Sarah: She's too embarrassed to tell you. So could you just please give her the money and don't say that I said anything? Luc: Okay. I-I'll call you later. Sarah: Love you. Kevin: It was for a bra? You see, you were just making mountains out of molehills. That... that came out wrong. Luc: She was too embarrassed to tell me. Kevin: Well, of course. I'm sure she wouldn't even say that to her real dad. That came out wrong as well. Kevin: It's bigger. Scotty: A little. Kevin: A little? Come on, Scotty. It's an architectural monstrosity. I'm surprised she hasn't had plumbing and electric installed. Is she... is she downstairs with the tutor? Scotty: Yes. Maybe she'll become a contractor when she grows up. Kevin: Really? That's your response? You're just gonna roll with it? Scotty: Okay, it has gotten a little out of hand, but we want her to feel at home, right? Kevin: Yes, feel at home, not build one. This thing is dangerous. If Zemulon's heat lamps scorch one of those sheets, we'd have a fire on our hands. Scotty: Okay. We'll be careful. Kevin: I think it's out of control. I mean, I know we want to be the cool parents, and she's having a good time, but something's going on. I think she's overcompensating. Scotty: What do you mean? Kevin: She has a new home, a new family. She's starting a new school on Monday, which you've conveniently let her ignore. Now she has a slew of Walkers about to descend on her. I think she's scared out of her mind. Scotty: Okay. What do you think we should do, tear it down? Kevin: No. I think we should talk to her. Whatever it is, she needs to tell us, but this fort isn't the answer. Scotty: Okay, when she's done with her tutor, we will talk to her. Agreed? Kevin: Agreed. Kevin: Knock. Knock. Olivia: What are you doing? Scotty: Wow. This is so much bigger than my first apartment. Kevin: Oh, wow. Yeah. Scotty: Yeah. Kevin: And if we move the TV over there, we'll have so much more room for the microwave. Scotty: Mm. Olivia: Microwave? Kevin: Yeah. Look, Olivia, the whole point of us adopting you was that we could all live together. Now if you want to live in here, that's cool. But Scotty and I are gonna join you. Olivia: There's not enough room. Scotty: Oh, there's enough room. Kevin: Yeah. Olivia: You guys really want to live in here with me? Scotty: Yeah. Kevin: If that's what you want. Olivia: Would I still have to go to school? Scotty: Yes, but we would be here when you got back. Kevin: Are you... Are you nervous about going to school? Olivia: A little. Kevin: Mm-hmm. I hated school. I used to put a thermometer up against the lightbulb so I could fake a fever and stay home all day. Scotty: Don't tell her how to do that. Kevin: The point is, it's okay to be scared. You can tell us that, because that's why we're here, to make you feel safe. Olivia: I'm kind of nervous about meeting your brothers and sisters, too. Scotty: I can totally relate. I was terrified. But now I'm one of the family. Kevin: And guess what. You're one of the family, too. Olivia: So do you guys want me to read you a story before we go to sleep? Kevin: Yes. What are we having? Olivia: "Good night, grasshopper." Scotty: Oh. Kevin: Oh. A classic. Olivia: "Once upon a time, in a big field near the city, a grasshopper family lived in their grasshopper house doing grasshopper things all the day long." Kevin: Remember being exhausted from just drinking all night? Scotty: Oh, and dancing. Remember dancing? Kevin: No, but I wasn't good at it anyway. Scotty: How long do you think we're gonna have to sleep in there? Kevin: The fort? I don't know, but I'll tell you one thing. I would not have done well in the civil war. Olivia: Good morning. How's it going? Kevin: Morning. Well, aren't you bright-eyed and bushy-tailed? Olivia: Why wouldn't I be? Kevin: Mm. Olivia: Scotty, can you help me iron my outfit for the party? Scotty: Sure. Olivia: Great. Kevin: W-wait a minute. Aren't you using the ironing board as one of the major support beams in Gecko Town? Olivia: It's okay. I took it down. Kevin & Scotty: The fort? Olivia: Yeah. Zemulon thought it was too crowded. Scotty: Well, how do you feel about that? Kevin: It's... it's fine. Let it go. Scotty: Right. Okay. I'll be up in a minute. Olivia: Thanks. Kevin: Yes. Scotty: It worked. Scotty: Good-bye, Gecko Town. ♪ Baby Tomorrow ♪ by Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors ♪ Listen Olivia: Wow. Lots of presents. Kevin: Right? Scotty: Well, you just wait until your birthday. Kevin: Yeah. Sarah: Are you ready for your first Walker party, Olivia? Luc: I remember my first Walker party. Sarah: Oh, my God. Luc: I drank a lot of wine. Kevin: Yeah, you did. Olivia: Does that mean I get to drink wine? Kevin: No. Scotty: Are you crazy? Kevin: Oh, let's show Olivia what we do with presents in this family. Sarah: Oh, yeah. Oh, okay. Kevin: Go. Sarah: Oh, okay. Paige: Ooh, robot. Kevin: Stuffed monkey. Sarah: Uh, socks. Very boring. Kevin: Uh, an Olivia? Uh-oh. I think I hear a birthday boy! Evan: Hi, Uncle noodles. Kevin: Hey, buddy. Hi. How you doing, buddy? Evan: Hi, Uncle noodles. Kevin: How are you? Nora: Uh, listen, I-I need someone to help me f-r-o-s-t these... Justin: Okay, I got it. I got it. I got this. Nora: Take it. Hey, Evan, let's go see that pinata I've heard so much about. Kevin: So you want to tell me what the hell's going on? You all right? Kitty: Yeah, yeah. We'll go for a walk later, and I'll tell you everything. Kevin: Okay. Come meet Olivia. Kitty: Oh. Oh, Olivia is just so adorable, Kevin. Sarah: I know. I just... I want to squeeze those cheeks. Kevin: Would you please leave my daughter's cheeks alone? Sarah & Kitty: Aw. Your daughter. Sarah: Aw. Don't worry, you're gonna have a kid one day. Kevin: I think we should start him slow, though, like a fish. Kitty: Oh, maybe a plant. Sarah: A plastic one. Justin: Nice. Paige: So, Olivia, I heard you're starting at my old school. Are you nervous? Olivia: Kinda. Paige: It's not that scary, but you... you have to get. Mrs. Earl for math. She looks pretty mean, but she's actually the nicest teacher in the whole school... Kevin: Look at them. Sarah: It's the next generation of Walkers. Justin: Yay! Sarah: Oh, the party's on. Nora: These are for later. We're gonna have fun now. Kitty: Let me see. Hey, baby. Nora: Give Evan a stick. Justin: Ready? All: Evan! Evan! Justin: All right, bud. All right, here we go. Ready? One, two... Three. Nora: Go get the stick and hit it. Quick! Pictures!

Season 5 Episode 15

Brody First Aired: 20/Feb/2011

Paige: Are you busy? Kevin: Yeah. No. I mean, I have, uh, time. Come... come in. Why aren't you at school? Paige: Swim meet, and my car pool's waiting for me, and I'm really late. But I have a huge favor to ask you. Uh, I have this project for health class. This is my pretend baby. Kevin: Yeah, I've heard about this. You lug a 5-pound sack of flour around like it's a baby, and after a while, it annoys you so much, you never, ever want to get knocked up before marriage. Paige: I think they're actually hoping I'll never, ever have sex. Kevin: Right. So is it a boy or a girl? Paige: Boy. Kevin: How can you tell? Paige: Uh, we all picked the genders out of a hat. Kevin: Well, then we should give him a name. Paige: Joaquin Winter Whedon. Uh, I even made a birth certificate for him and everything. Kevin: Hello, Joaquin. That's a nice name. Paige: He's from Paraguay. Kevin: How did that happen? Paige: I was in the pretend peace corps. Kevin: Romantic. Paige: Yeah, but now I'm a single mom, and it's getting really hard. Kevin: You have to get really detailed about this, huh? Paige: Yeah. I have to go. Um, mom said that maybe you could drive Joaquin over to her office. She promised to babysit, and then forgot to take him with her this morning. And now I'm late, and I don't have child care. Kevin: What do I do? Paige: Just write in this little baby journal when you change him and pretend feed him and stuff. And it's really important to keep him on a schedule, okay? Kevin: It'll be great practice for when I have to look after Olivia 24/7. Paige: Yeah. Um, I have to go. Thank you so much, Uncle Kevin. Kevin: Hmm-hmm. That's great Uncle Kevin to you. Kevin: Abuela, did you miss me? Sarah: Very cute. Now take it off. Kevin: What, why? Look, I stuffed the little arms and the hoodie with tissue. Sarah: Paige is way too invested in that baby already. Kevin: What's the point of having a fake baby around the house if you can't dress it up? Sarah: What's the point of having a fake baby that doesn't poop, spit up, or cry all night? If all these kids do is carry them around... and dress them in their little hoodies, what kind of disincentive is that? And why do I have to babysit it? Kevin: Aren't you the grumpy grandma? I think you should cut Paige a break. She worked really hard building that water treatment plant in Paraguay. So I turned on mom's show in the car on the way over. You would not believe the pervs calling in. Sarah: Don't sneeze at my pervs. They're very good for ratings. Brody: Ah, she was always a good sport. I don't think she had ever let me down. I haven't seen her over fourty years. But I think she still.... Sarah: Oh, my God. Kevin: What? ... Nora: Fourty years. So, are you sure she is still.... Sarah: Shhhhh Kevin: What? Brody: A little birdie told me she still talks about me a lot. Sarah: Oh, God. Why is he calling her? He's not supposed to be calling her. Kevin: Tell me that is not Brody... And please tell me you're not the little birdie. Sarah: I'd recognize his voice anywhere. Tommy: Sarah... Oh, Kev. Perfect timing. Rose made these. You'll eat 'em. Sarah: Eat rose's cookie, Kevin. Kevin: What, you think I'm gonna let this slide? Sarah: Kev... Kevin: Remember after her little meltdown, she said she was gonna drop the whole Brody issue? Tommy: Yeah. Kevin: She didn't. She tracked him down. Tommy: Whoa. You met him? Kevin: Yes. Sarah: Well, after my brothers blew me off, I had to go find him for myself. He's the manager of a semi-pro baseball team in Modesto. We... we talked briefly. Kevin: And? Sarah: And he confirmed that he's not my dad. That's all. It was no big deal. Kevin: Well, it's a big deal now. Dr. Milton: Are you fantasizing about fiding passion with your old lover again? Sarah: No. Brody: Passion was never our problem. Tommy: That's him? Kevin: Yeah. Sarah: How was I supposed to know he'd come sniffing around? Tommy: Does mom know that's him? Sarah: Maybe not. Brody: So what do you think? Should I call her? Or should I drop by and surprise her? Dr. Milton: How did things end with your lady? Brody: Uh, not great. She was dating me and another guy, and I kind of dropped the ball, so to speak. Kevin: Don't kid yourself. She knows. Tommy: This is perfect. Mom's gonna get mad at you and rose again, and rose is gonna freak out, she's gonna get mad at me, and then I'm gonna have to run around and try to smooth things over. Kevin: Shh. Tommy: I don't know what my job title is here, but it's starting to feel a lot like referee. Sarah: Wait. We can talk about this later. But right now, mom is going off the air in five minutes, and we need to have a plan, because I cannot get into this again with her. Tommy: I'm not sticking around for this. I can't deal with you two anymore. Kevin: No way. Don't look at me. I'm an innocent bystander here. Sarah: Exactly. Mom's not gonna yell at you. Kevin, I really need you to stay here and smooth things over. Kevin: No way. Absolutely... Sarah. Sarah. Sarah! Look, no. You forgot Joaquin. Sarah: Mom? Kevin: No, it's me. Sarah: Oh, thank God. What are you doing here? Kevin: Someone forgot Joaquin. Sarah: Thank you so much. Kevin: You really are a crappy grandmother. Sarah: No, you're being too nice. I am a crappy daughter, a crappy sister, a crappy mother, and a crappy grandmother. Kevin: Yep. I suggest you go on a global apology tour, starting with me. Sarah: Why? What did I do to you? Kevin: You left me to clean up your mess with mom. Sarah: Oh, yeah. I'm sorry. Do you forgive me? Kevin: No. Sarah: Whoever it is, I'm sorry. Justin: Well, save it for mom. She just called me, shrieking that you were talking trash about her to that Brody guy. Sarah, I thought you were letting that go. Sarah: I am. I am letting it go. Okay? Let's just drop it right now. Justin: Well, mom's not dropping it. She's really upset. Sarah: She's overreact... Listen, okay. I will call her. I will calm her down, okay? Kevin: Hi, mom. Sarah: Justin, I gotta go. Justin: Sarah... Nora: Did you find her? Kevin: No, I didn't find her. Nora: Tommy's not answering his phone either. Why did he run off like that? Kevin: Well, Tommy isn't exactly ecstatic about things. Nora: What things? Kevin: Job things. Nora: You know, Sarah is being way too hard on him. That's another thing I want to talk to her about. Sarah: No! Nora: Tell her that I'm looking for her, all right? Oh, for God sakes! Kevin: What's all that honking? What's all that honking? Nora: Some horse's patoot and his hideous, gas-guzzling motor home is practically blocking my driveway. Jeez. What is wrong with people? Sarah: What'd she say? Kevin: I think she's having road rage. Nora: That anyone would just do this... You're not allowed to in this area. Aah! Kevin: Mom, is everything all right? Nora: Oh, God. There's a big dog running loose. Oh, Jeez. For God sakes. Hello! Hello! You know what? You're gonna have to move this monstrosity. Kevin: Mom, what is it? Nora: Oh, my God. Kevin: What? Nora: It's him. Kevin: Who? Nora: He's here. Kevin: Who? Nora: He's been here all along. Kevin: Brody? Uh-oh... Sarah: What? Kevin: You are so dead. Brody: Hey, slugger. Kevin: Hi. Hi. I'm Kevin. Brody: Uh, Nick Brody. Nice meeting you. Kevin: Nice to meet you. And who are you? Brody: That's Lily. Kevin: She's so sweet. How old is she? Brody: 14. Kevin: She doesn't look 14. I miss having a dog. We used to have one when we were kids... Bingo. But he got hit by a car. Brody: Ooh. Kevin: Dad refused to ever let us get another one. Nora: What? That's just not true. Your father was brokenhearted when we lost Bingo. He just didn't feel emotionally up to being able to do that again. Kevin: Well, that didn't keep him from getting a little toy poodle for Holly. Brody: Is holly one of your kids? Kevin: Ha! Nora: No. Um, no. She was an old maiden aunt of William's. He... he loved very much. Kevin: Oh, yeah. I'll say. Brody: Why do I-I feel that there's more to this story? Nora: Well, there's not. She's dead. That's the end of that. And, uh, I hate to break this up, but I have an appointment. Kevin: What do you mean? I only just got here. Brody: Well, it was great meeting you. Maybe I'll see you tonight. Nora: Don't you want to get on the road? You don't want to get stuck in rush-hour traffic. Brody: My engine's been a little balky, so I'm gonna change the plugs and tighten the belts, and... I promise not to spill any oil on your pretty Pasadena street, Nora. Come on, Lil. Kevin: See you later. Brody: Yep. Kevin: I like him. Nora: You don't like him. You just like watching me squirm. Kevin: Well, I am a little surprised with the Saint William pretense. Nora: Shhhh. It's none of his business. I don't want him standing around here, judging me. Kevin: Well, how long does it take to tighten his plugs and change his belts? Nora: If I know Brody, it takes as long as he wants it to take. Kevin: Do you really have an appointment? Nora: No, I don't have an appointment. Kevin: Look, believe me, I get it. But there has to be some alternative to moving back to Seattle, right? I mean, at least give it a chance here. Tommy: Well, Sarah called me with some great project that's supposed to turn my life around. Kevin: That's good, right? Tommy: I don't know. I guess if it keeps the peace, maybe I'll do it. Kevin: I know you don't want to hear this, but it wouldn't hurt if you went over there and allayed mom's fears a little. She's already wigging out that Brody parked his R.V. In her driveway. Tommy: I hope that's not a euphemism. Kevin: Oh, no. I don't think there's any chance of that happening. If the R.V.'s rocking, it's 'cause mom's trying to blow it up. Tommy: Well, I have to go there tomorrow and return Joaquin to Sarah. Kevin: You've met Joaquin? Tommy: Yeah. He's out in my car. Kevin: By himself? Tommy: Well... he was sleeping so soundly, I didn't want to wake him up. Paige: Mom, This isn't my baby. Sarah: Uh-oh. Paige: What is going on? I can't believe you did this. Sarah: Paige, stop shouting. Luc and Cooper are still asleep. Paige: Did you really think you could fool me with this off-brand baby? Sarah: Look, I got in late. I didn't want to wake you and have you worrying, so I just... I got that one out of the pantry. Paige: Where is Joaquin? Sarah: At grandma's, I think. Paige: Wait. You think? Sarah: I know. He is. He's fine. Paige: Did you even feed him last night? Sarah: Paige, he's fine. It's not even 7:00. He's probably still asleep. Paige: Mom, this is serious. Sarah: Sweetheart, I had the most horrible day yesterday. Everything I did was wrong. If I could write in the mirror backwards, I would scrawl, "I'm sorry" on my forehead with a sharpie just to save time. Listen, we'll... we'll go over later to grandma's and we'll feed him together, okay? Paige: I have a soccer tournament in an hour, and you're driving the car pool. Sarah: Oh, God. I completely forgot. Okay. You go upstairs, get dressed, and we'll just... We'll use this bag as joaquin's stand-in until we pick him up later. Paige: That's cheating. Sarah: Oh, come on, Paige. This baby's white, all-purpose, weighs 5 pounds. Hmm. That's all that matters. Paige: F.Y.I., mom, as if you cared, Joaquin is whole-wheat. Sarah: Okay, mom, I need you to fill in joaquin's baby book. 4:00 P.M., fed bottle, 6:00 P.M., changed diaper, 8:00 P.M., went to sleep, in your handwriting. Nora: You know what? Isn't this cheating? Sarah: No, quick, before Paige comes back. Nora: Oh, for God sakes. Justin: You know, stop. Get your own, Sarah. This... that's my plate. Make yourself one. Sarah: Oh, mom. These muffins are really good. Nora: I didn't make them. Brody did. Justin: I knew I loved that guy. Sarah: He is a really good cook. Nora: Oh, for goodness sakes. Oh, here. Paige: Mom, I really want a dog. Sarah: So was your walk nice? Brody: Very successful. Paige: Mom, I'm serious about a dog. Sarah: Considering our record with the fake baby, I'm not sure we're really ready for a live animal. Paige: Don't call him a fake baby. His name's Joaquin. Sarah: Sorry. Justin: Why do you have a fake baby named Joaquin? Paige: A school project. Justin: Oh. Nora: What happened to you making an offer... Rose: I spent all afternoon trying to talk him out of it. Tommy: S-stop. Stop. Look, I've already made up my mind. I'd really appreciate some support. Paige: Aah! Sarah: Paige, are you okay? Paige: Who did this? Sarah: Oh, God. You gave me a heart attack. Nora: The muffins. Oh, God. Brody... Brody must have... Paige: Oh, my God. I ate one. Justin: What's wrong with the muffins? Sarah: Listen, honey, you know, I can fix this thing. But we're just in the middle of something here. Paige: You can't fix this. You ruined it. Justin: Will someone please tell me what the hell is going on with the muffins? I had four of 'em. Sarah: Justin, could you just go talk to Paige? She'll explain everything. Please. Justin: She... she's gonna explain the muffins? Sarah: Yes, just... Nora: Sarah, if you hadn't stuck your nose in where it didn't belong, none of this would have happened. Sarah: Oh, my God. Here we go. It's all my fault. Except let's not forget, mom, that this whole thing happened because you lied about your wedding date to hide the fact that you were knocked up when you were 19 and unmarried. Justin: Sarah. Nora: Oh, God. Paige: Grandma, you got pregnant? Nora: Sweetheart, l-listen, listen... Sarah: Hey... Nora: Oh. Sarah: Paige. Nora: Paige, listen, things were very different back then. Paige: So do you wish you'd used birth control? Nora: Well... Um... Sarah: I can't help you there. Nora: Well, you know, that's hard to answer, because I gave birth to your mother, and I love your mother very much. So you see, it all turned out beautifully. Paige: So then you're glad you got pregnant. Sarah: Listen, Paige, I'm sure it's been a shock to find out that your grandmother was an unwed, pregnant teen. But this is just not a situation that we expect to find you in. You have so many opportunities. You're a smart girl. We've talked about this so many times. Perhaps we shouldn't dwell on any mistakes that grandma might have made. Nora: Why, thank you, Sarah. And I think Paige realizes that sometimes, people make mistakes. Paige: Well, just so you guys know, I'm not even gonna think about having a family until I've finished with college and graduate school... Mm-hmm. And... and I have a career. Nora: Well, honey, you don't want to wait too long. Sometimes, as you get older, fertility problems can creep... Sarah: Mom. Mnh-mnh. Nora: You know what? Paige is going to do whatever is right for her. Paige: Great. Then can I go finish my homework now? Sarah: Sure, honey. Take your tea. Paige: Okay. Bye. Love you, grandma. Nora: Love you. Sarah: I am sorry, mom. I-I never meant for her to hear all that. I just... I blurted it out. I was so mad at you. Nora: It's all right, Sarah. Sarah: Is there anyone else I'm supposed to apologize to? Nora: Joaquin, maybe. Sarah: Oh, yeah. I feel bad about him. Justin: Yeah, we're gonna drive down all the time for games. And we should get one of those big land yacht things that Brody has, and we can park it out in front of mom's when we're not using it. Kevin: Say good-bye to her yet? Tommy: Yeah. She's, uh, still pretty miffed, but she tried to put on a good face. Kevin: Where'd you get these muffins? They're amazing. Justin: Uh, Brody made 'em. I got, like, a dozen of 'em. Tommy: Yeah, nobody else wanted any when they found out the main ingredient was powdered Joaquin. Kevin: This is Joaquin? Justin: Uh, yeah. What's the big deal? Kevin: You had to know him, I guess. Justin: Uh, fine. More for me. Tommy: Yeah, and me. Can you put a few in a bag? Justin: Mm-hmm. Tommy: Hey, look, we're gonna go say good-bye to Sarah. You want to come with? Justin: Uh, no. No, actually, I didn't get a lot of sleep last night, so I'm gonna crash out for a few hours. Kevin: All for a good cause. Justin: Seems like a lost cause. Justin: All right. I'm gonna pack this up for you, and I'll walk you out. All right. Hey, you know, uh, Brody's leaving today, too. I hate to say it, it's sad, but I'm gonna miss him. Kevin: Justin. Justin: Yep. Zach. Oh, my God. Come in, come in. These are my brothers. This is Tommy. This is Kevin. This is Zach. Kevin: Hey. Zack: Hey. Is this a bad time? Justin: No, no, not at all. Come on in. Uh, you're just in time for chow. Tommy: Hey, look, we're gonna go, man. Justin: Yeah. Sure. All right. Kevin: Good to see you. Tommy: All right. Justin: Tommy. Here you go.
