A flower shop.
Ugh.

My face says it all.I just hate flowers.
You hate flowers?
-I do.-Oh, okay.
Like, why don't you justgive me something that's living
rather than somethingthat's on its way to dying?
And then it's gonna createmore work for me,
and I'm gonnahave to deal with that,
but again,it's a solo perspective.
It's-- I find flower shopsdepressing. It's just me.
I do wish you luck.I'm so sorry.
I agree. I find them depressing.
Because I feel like... [SIGHS]

Let me just say one thing.
This man runs through women like candy.
-This is different.-Oh, is it? Wonderful.
Well, just in case it obviously is not,
let me say that if you're looking for, eh,nothing from him, that's a great option.
LILY: Okay.
But if you're looking for romanceand you want a relationship,
this is not the person,and it's not about you.
And I love you.
-LILY: Yeah.-ALLYSA: But let me just say--
Date me.
What?
Date me.
I've-- I don't--
What... What does that mean? I--
Okay, no. I'm gonna leave.
And I'm so sorry,but I was just bringing coffee,
and now, I'm so embarrassed.
[CHUCKLES NERVOUSLY]You can't have any of that.

I just feel really bad and I'm sorry.
Yeah, yeah. No, it's all good. It's, um...

Lily, you make me happy.
Are you happy?
I mean, I don't think anyone'shappy all the time, but, um...

Of course I deal with, um, you know, my stuff
and, you know... [INHALES]...life, and ticking clock
-and, you know, all those decisions that...-Right.
...that women have to worry about.
But, I think I'm an innately happy person.
It's probably just a coping mechanismI learned from my mom. So...
Your mom?
My dad used to hit her.
Shit, I'm so sorry.
You never told me that.
That's not something people talk about.
Did he ever hurt you?
No. He nearly killed Atlas though.

I'm so embarrassed. I--
That mess at the restaurant.
I didn't know.That must have been so hard on you.
Yeah.
Baby, all I wanna do in my lifeis protect you.
You know that, right?
When you hurt yourself by accident,
when you stub your toe, I blame myself.
It's like it's my faultthat the wall was there.
[LAUGHS] Stop.
I'm the luckiest goddamn manon this planet.
And I could clean up. Trust me.
Okay. I'm not trying to hear about that.

DOCTOR: Sorry for the delay.
Been really busy tonight.
So, we have a certain examinationfor these situations.
It's called the SANE exam.It's completely optional, of course--
He didn't--
No, I wasn't-- It's--
Did he try?
I don't need the exam. Thank you. Yeah.
May I?
Oh, yeah. Of course.
-DOCTOR: Does this hurt?-LILY: Mmh-mmh.
-DOCTOR: This?-LILY: Mmh-mmh.
No, it's just the skin. Yeah.
So, usually,
I'd give you an X-ray on this collarboneto make sure that it isn't fractured,
but, given your situation,we're gonna clean it up,
and the nurse is gonna come inand give you a tetanus shot.
I-- I don't understand.
We don't give X-rays to pregnant womenunless it's vital.
Okay?

Hey.
Hi.
I wasn't sure if you were hungry,so I went with a few fan favorites.
What song do you want at your funeral?
[LAUGHS]
If you had to pick one.
Have you not thought about this?
What song you're gonna play at my funeral?
-Yeah.-[LAUGHS]
At my funeral,I'm thinking Creed, "With Arms Wide Open".
-You know, "With arms wide..."-Yeah.
...as the casket's being lowered.
[BOTH LAUGH]
You're gonna be okay.
It doesn't feel like it.
I know.
But you are.
I think it's a little different this time.
If I can't even take care of myself,
then how am I, um, you know,supposed to take care of a baby?
That night I wentto that old abandoned house,
I didn't go there becauseI needed a place to stay,
I went there to kill myself.
And I was sittingon the living room floor,
and I saw you in your bedroom window.
The light came on,
and you poked your headthrough that curtain,
and as soon as I saw your face,I couldn't do it.
The next day, you brought me food,you fed me...
I mean, you saved--
You saved my lifeis what I'm trying to say.
That's who you are.
And if you decide to keep it... [GULPS]
...you are going to be an amazing mother.
And that baby is so lucky.
You've got this.
[ENGINE STOPS]
ATLAS: Lily.
If you ever find yourself in the positionto love somebody again,
just fall in love with me.
Yeah. Okay.
ALLYSA: I'm so sorry.
[SIGHS SOFTLY]
I've been watching him my entire life,and I've seen...
how afraid he isof opening his heart to anyone,
ever since he was a kid.
And I think I feltthat he was dying inside.
Just dying inside, little by little,
until he met you.
And I'm not making any excuses, uh...
I never--
I never thought he was capable of this.
Um...
Would it... Would it be okayif I asked what happened to Emerson?
Of course.
You deserve to know, and it's our family.
Um...
My father had a gun.
Ryle and Emerson wereplaying in the house,
you know, pretending to be cowboys,
and they found it.
And Ryle was six-years-old.
He was a six-year-old boy.
[ALLYSA SNIFFLES]
He didn't even knowthat it was a real gun.
He thought that it was pretend... [SNIFFLES]
...until it was too late.
-Emerson was our brother...-I'm so sorry.
...his best friend.
[ALLYSA SOBS, SNIFFLES]
He's never been the same since.
Yeah.
To be at that funeral...
I really did used to love flowers.
Listen to me.
As his sister,
I wish more than anythingthat you could find a way to forgive him.
But, as your best friend,
Lily, if you take him back,I will never speak to you again.
I'm so sorry.
You're the best friend I ever had.[CHUCKLES SOFTLY]
I'll be an even better auntie.
Sweetheart.

Or if she said, "Daddy, my husbandpushed me down the stairs,
but he said it was an accident,so it's fine."
Or if she said her husband held her downand she begged him to stop,
but he swore he'd never do it again?
What would you tell her?
