Cooper, get out.
Oh, you look incredible.
You're not supposed to see me yet.
I think...
I-I think it's a mistake for us to do this.
Hey. You okay? What's going on?
Are you worried about something?
Are you getting pre-wedding jitters?
You gonna jilt cooper at the altar?
Because I will drive the getaway vehicle,
No questions asked. I am not jilting, coop.
It's just, weddings mean family, and our families...
look, my mama is a straight-up southern belle,
Which means she's charming, judgmental,
And not afraid to self-medicate.
Imagining her with the freedmans...
And if they're anything like their son,
They'll want to hug her and kiss her
And whine about how there aren't any good delis in los angeles.
You know, sometimes when you have those
"worlds collide" situations, they actually turn out okay.
And sometimes they end with a giant fireball
That consumes everything around 'em.
Well, how much time do they have to spend together
Before the wedding?
cooper and I thought we could limit it to a dinner.
Is there anything I can do to help?
Plan the dinner.
Oh. Okay. Uh, I was really just asking to be polite,
But you really want me to do it?
I just figured, if you're gonna be my maid of honor...
Wait. What? Really? Me?
We're junkies together. That makes us b.F.F.S in my book.
And cooper has violet as his best man.
He keeps saying I need someone to stand up with me,
So I would very much like you to be my maid of honor.
Just don't forget to bring your fire extinguisher.
Can I help you? I'm dr. Violet turner.
I was told you were the medical investigator on my case.
Did we have an appointment for today?
No. No, I just... I thought we could take a few moments
To talk about katie kent.
Dr. Turner--
I mean, this whole thing has been blown out of proportion,
And I-I wanted to tell my side of the story, and you'll see--
I-I think we can avoid wasting everyone's time
On any kind of formal investigation.
We have a protocol, and I'm obligated to follow it.
Please hear me out.
As long as you understand that whatever you tell me
Will in no way limit the investigation
We've already opened into your case
And can also be used
As the basis for further inquiries.
Ready when you are.
adddic7ed.com
Hey.
I didn't know you were back.
Uh, how was africa?
It was good. It was really good.
Yeah? You look amazing. Are you--
I'm--I'm--I'm late for a meeting. Hi.
Hey. Welcome back, na--
Omi. She hates me.
Well, she's not too crazy about me, either.
So, uh...
Are we still agreed?
You don't have to keep asking me that.
Well, I just don't want things to be awkward
For charlotte and cooper. It's not gonna be, all right?
We're not gonna tell anybody we're broken up.
We're gonna go to the wedding together,
And then afterwards, we're gonna tell everybody that--
we're still friends. Okay.
You're gonna get a call from the medical board
Investigating violet.
I can't believe it's this serious.
Well, believe. They're gonna interview you.
Me?
You and I are the only other doctors who treated katie,
And I just got my call, so... You really think
There's a chance she could lose her license?
Yes.
But if we can help explain what happened...
Just be very careful when you answer their questions.
I know you're not asking me to lie.
I'm asking you to protect violet.
I don't need to be protected.
All the therapy I did with katie,
The--the attack, the trial, the book--
I have nothing to hide,
And neither do you.
Miss me?
gabriel, what are you--
I heard your speech, but I am confident
That eventually, you will see the error of your ways,
And when you do, I'll be here, waiting.
Where are you going?
I have a patient in assisted living.
I'm making a house call.
There are laws against stalking.
Oh, prison doesn't scare me.
marion?
Marion?
Hi. Did I forget to tell you that I was coming?
Oh, I'm sure you didn't.
Uh, this is dr. Fife.
He's a colleague of mine.
Why don't we give marion a-a minute?
I've never seen her in anything other than a dress
With her hair and nails done, which means she's being polite.
Wouldn't have mattered.
Is this you?
Yes, and my husband jerome.
How long were you married?
Jerome died just before our 51st anniversary.
Well, bet you can still fit in that dress.
Marion, your glucose is really high.
Have you been taking your insulin?
Oh, careful.
Is there something wrong?
Oh.
You're not yourself today, marion. Did something happen?
If you want to talk, dr. Fife can leave and--
Oh, it doesn't matter.
You know, marion,
There is a therapist here on staff.
And I have two in my office.
You want me to talk to so-some stranger
Half my age,
Tell 'em I'm sad,
And then listen to him try to put things
In a perspective he doesn't have?
I-I-it's just, that if you're really sad, then--
We can zap the sadness out.
There's a procedure called an anterior cingulotomy.
The neurosurgeon uses a gamma knife
To destroy the parts of the brain that cause depression.
Gabriel.
Oh. Listen, thank you both for coming here.
I'll try to remember the insulin.
But I don't need shrinks
And I don't need knives.
I just need to be left alone.
oh.
Hey, cooper, uh, this is, uh,
This is my lawyer, richard huvane.
You went to speak with neal chaplin without me present?
What were you thinking?
I was thinking that if katie has dropped the lawsuit,
There's no reason for the medical board to pursue it.
But they are pursuing it.
And now that they've opened an investigation,
It doesn't matter what she does.
Well, I... I-I-I didn't say anything.
As soon as he brought out the recorder, I left.
I'm gonna catch up to you later, okay?
Look, I-I was just thinking that if I could...
I talked to pete about it--
Pete is now a witness in this investigation.
Are--are you saying I need to be cautious
Around my own husband?
You need to be cautious around everyone.
It's your license that's on the line.
The woman is probably just depressed, and fife suggests
Destroying part of her brain.
Well, if you invited him, you should've known.
I did not invite him. It's part of my strategy.
I did an anterior cingulotomy back at hopkins.
Pre-op, the man would not even get out of bed.
Post-op, he was cooking dinner for the entire neighborhood.
We gave him his life back. So there.
But any surgery on someone marion's age
Is gonna be rife with potential complications,
Including a stroke--
well, you have to be brave enough to take that risk.
Actually, you're asking the patient to take that risk,
Which I'm not sure makes you brave at all.
More importantly, marion has already made it clear
That she does not want this surgery.
That's the depression talking.
It's clouding her judgment
And making her incapable of an informed decision.
Depression doesn't necessarily make someone incompetent.
Unless it does,
Which makes this kind of a catch-22.
I mean, we can't treat her depression
If her depression is preventing her from seeking treatment.
Marion shouldn't be included in this. What?
The disease determines the cure, not the patient.
Listening to your patient, working with them,
That's essential to good doctoring.
Healing is essential to good doctoring.
Amelia uses the gamma knife, marion will feel better.
It's a win-win.
No one is doing any kind of cutting
Until we determine just how bad off marion is.
Will you please talk to her?
Sure.
Thank you.
What a lovely place to work.
And, uh, saving the best for last--
This is the office of dr. Charlotte king.
violet, you are funny as ever.
Oh. Whoo-hoo.
mom, what are you doing here?
Ooh. Hi.
You told us to wait, but you know your mother.
We were too excited, so we came on over.
And then we saw violet in the elevator...
Who has this amazing figure, even after having a baby.
yeah, yeah.
Yeah, I was just coming to find you.
Uh, mom, dad,
Um, this is charlotte, and this is her mother,
Augusta king.
It's a pleasure. Hello.
Hello. Nice to meet you.
Well, isn't this great, everybody finally meeting?
Hey, maybe I'll just show mama around the rest of the office.
Oh, great idea. Um, why don't you guys come with us? Go with--
Actually, you know, your mother and I are kind of hungry.
oh, well, it's-- it's lunch time right about now.
Why don't you all go to the promenade
And have lunch first?
that's a great idea. And you'll be joining us, right?
Oh, well, I'm--I'm really kind of busy.
Of course she's coming with us.
Charlotte, I'd love to see your office. Now.
Oh, but let's, uh... Uh, lunch?
Another time.
Enjoy.
well, I'm thinking deli, but, uh,
I could be persuaded to try something a little more risque.
hey.
I keep running into fife in the halls.
Is he, uh, working here again or--
No, he just--he says he won't go away until I agree to date him.
Wow.
I give him a 10 for perseverance.
So what do you rate him for style?
You know what?
I have a bunch of research I have to do, so...
Oh. Okay.
Okay.
Hey, sam and I broke up. I, uh...
I just thought you should know.
Why?
Well, he wouldn't commit to having a child with me
And I didn't want to wait--
No, I meant why-- why are you telling me this?
I mean, y--
You and I, we're not exactly...
Look, nai, there's been this wall up between you and me
Since sam and I got together,
And I don't want it there anymore.
I want my best friend back.
That's it? You're not gonna say anything?
I hope it was worth it.
I told you, you should've ordered the brisket.
I'm sorry. It's just, um, just kind of a bad day.
But you know what? I-I think I should go.
What, so soon?
Dad, enough. Let her go.
Well, the three of you need time to catch up,
And, um, yeah, I'll see you back at the office.
Fine.
Is everything okay with violet?
I swear, she didn't smile once the whole meal.
She is... Going through a rough patch right now.
She'll be okay.
Well, I hope so. She is such a good girl.
Is there anything that we can do to help?
Yeah, how about worrying a little less about violet
And asking me about my future wife?
Well, we introduced ourselves,
And then she and her mother were gone.
Are you really surprised?
I mean, you completely shut down when I introduced you.
Well, the mother was pleasant enough.
But I did find charlotte to be a bit... Cold.
Charlotte is not cold. It takes a while to get to know her.
We know enough.
Oh, yeah? What's that supposed to mean?
Cooper, for the last few years,
Your father and I have listened to you--
Every phone call, every e-mail.
And do you know how many of those were you being upset
About something charlotte did?
Come on. Wait a minute. That is not fair.
No, she's right, coop. We went through all of that with you--
The lying to the ex-husband, sleeping with that arthur--
Archer. oh, it doesn't matter.
The point is, she's hurt you, more than once.
And we--we understand that you're going to marry her, but--
But you can understand why we can't exactly
Open our arms to her and pretend that nothing happened.
You're--you're my parents.
I was giving you one side of the story.
There's lots of good stuff about charlotte
That I didn't tell you.
Well, I'm sure that's true, but we love you, cooper,
More than anything.
So anyone who hurts you...
Mm.
the chuppah will be over here.
Uh, that's just a little gazebo.
I know what a chuppah is, darling.
It's the one concession cooper asked for.
It's important for his parents.
Oh, his parents.
You know, charlotte,
The freedmans aren't those huggy, kissy,
In-your-face kind of people you warned me about.
In fact, they're a little cold.
You're right. They were cold.
And the way they fawned over that other doctor--
What's her name? Violet.
You would think she was the one marrying cooper.
Cooper and violet are best friends.
His parents have known her for a long time.
best friends?
I suggest you do as I do
And try not to let that get under your skin.
You listen, baby girl,
As your mother, I have to tell you how it is,
And his parents do not like you.
They barely know me.
Honey, they're not looking to know you.
Mama.
No, look...
I bet they're out there right now with cooper
Telling him that you are not his kind of girl.
I highly doubt that.
I'm not saying cooper's gonna listen.
I'm just saying, you marry a boy, you marry his family.
Just consider it a warning.
I can't talk about this anymore.
I have to get to my final dress fitting.
Oh, I can't wait to see it on you.
I'm not doing anything.
Look, mama, you can come to the fitting,
But the dress... It's not gonna make you happy.
Did something happen to it in the mail?
No, it arrived just fine,
But... I'm not wearing the family dress.
Charlotte...
For a hundred years, the women in our family
Have worn that dress when they took their vows.
Is this because of cooper?
Has he talked you out of wearing that dress?
Cooper doesn't know anything about the dress.
Now listen to me, mama.
I wore the dress when I married billy,
And look where that got me.
that can't possibly be the dress' fault.
Now I know you don't want to do this,
But it's what big daddy would've wanted.
And I know you don't want to let him down.
dr. Bennett should leave well enough alone.
Well, dr. Bennett doesn't feel you are well enough.
That's why she asked me to talk to you.
She's concerned that you might be depressed.
She said she offered you several treatment options,
But you didn't seem to have any interest.
Well, that's my right, isn't it?
Yes, but our goal is to make you feel better.
And it's possible that your illness
Is standing in the way
Of your ability to discern what's best for you.
Dr. Wallace, one day you'll be old.
You'll be old and then eventually you'll be sick.
And then you'll be sad... And lonely.
And sometimes, you won't want to get out of bed
Or be with people.
When that happens, I hope nobody treats you like a child,
Because it only makes you feel worse.
You know, if you want to avoid me,
You should know better than to come in here
When I'm having my pre-dinner breakfast.
Oh. I'm not trying to avoid you.
I'm not.
I just, uh...
It's just, the reentry gets harder every time.
You know, I miss maya and olivia so much when I'm gone.
But when I'm traveling for the foundation,
I just--I-I have a purpose.
You know, the work we do, it's changing lives,
And I see it. I see it every day.
Then I come back here to all the... Petty drama.
we're pretty well-stocked in that.
Yeah. I'm sorry.
I-I didn't mean to downplay what happened
With you and addison.
She told you.
Unbelievable.
What, was I not supposed to know?
Well, we, uh, we had agreed not to tell anybody
Until after the wedding,
But still, she goes running to you.
You know, that's just... That's who she is.
It's who she's always been.
Well, how do you-- how do you get past that?
I don't think you can.
So you treated ms. Kent for pain?
Not just pain. She had nausea associated with her pregnancy.
Did you prescribe her anything?
I took a holistic approach--
Acupuncture, acupressure.
Were you at all concerned about how she was responding?
Specifically, do you feel like ms. Kent
Was getting better or worse?
After she miscarried, I needed to perform an emergency d&c.
Did you perform it immediately?
No, not immediately.
Why not?
Answer the question, please.
Violet, uh...
Dr. Turner felt it was important
That katie fully comprehend the loss of her baby
Before the procedure.
And what happened as a result of the delay?
Katie went into septic shock.
But she came through just fine.
And you believe it was medically appropriate to have waited?
Yes, katie was--
I... Um, violet calmed her down,
And then I did the d&c.
And how did dr. Turner calm her down?
She related the experiences of her own pregnancy.
It was a way of bonding, and it worked.
And how exactly do you know what was said
During katie's therapy session with dr. Turner?
Uh, I don't know specifics,
But our practice is cooperative.
Doctors often discuss their cases with each other.
Including matters not relevant
To their specific areas of responsibility
To those patients?
Is that really the ethic of your practice?
Well, now you're making us sound like gossips.
Then let me clarify my question.
Does dr. Turner ever share the personal details
Of her patients with you,
Even when you're not treating them?
Only when it's therapeutically beneficial to the patient.
Can you please list the names of all other patients
With whom dr. Turner shared such personal information?
So you got nowhere?
On the contrary.
An hour in the lobby was very informative.
It's like a college dorm for septuagenarians.
Everyone into everyone else's business.
Not unlike this practice.
I asked around. Marion had a good friend named walter.
He died of a heart attack a few weeks ago.
Well, so maybe that's it.
That's why she's been giving up and not taking care of herself.
She's just grieving. Mm-hmm. She is.
But when you get to her age,
Loss is a much more common occurrence.
And I think the best way to deal with it is therapy.
Mm. Most elderly patients are resistant
To the standard treatment of meds and talk therapy.
And frankly, at marion's age, she doesn't have the luxury
Of spending five years on your couch,
Especially when all her pain can be eradicated
With one procedure.
Well, congratulations on your psychiatric degree.
Where--where'd you get that? Oh, snark away.
Pretty soon, you'll be able to get one out of a cereal box.
With the advent of psychosurgeries
And new psycopharmaceuticals,
Your degree is becoming obsolete.
Why are you here?
You don't even work for the practice anymore.
Oh, I'm here for her.
Okay, th-this is not productive.
No, it isn't, but you're being myopic.
The best thing for marion is the gamma knife surgery.
Well, she doesn't agree, and neither do I.

Oh. I prefer you not be here.
There's something I'd like to know first.
I'm, uh...
Having trouble understanding
Why you wouldn't want to improve
Your quality of life.
The other doctors at the practice
Seem to think your depression stems from grief
Over the loss of your friend walter.
Oh, and you know better?
I have that way about me, do I?
jerome had the same brash confidence.
Wh-when you lost him--
I can't imagine spending half a century with someone
And then having to go on, but you did, for years.
And according to dr. Bennett, you thrived,
Which leads me to believe that if you can get over jerome,
You can get over walter, too.
I noticed the words on the game haven't changed
Since the last time I was here.
Who was it you were playing with before you stopped?
Walter.
He was my friend.
Oh, we talked...
About our spouses, about our lives.
We both loved to play scrabble, almost every day.
That sounds nice.
Oh, it was more than nice. It was wonderful.
After all those years without jerome,
To have someone I connected with...
That's okay, marion.
But I-I couldn't.
I couldn't do that to jerome. I just couldn't.
You couldn't do what?
We were in the middle of the game, that game,
And he turned to me and smiled and he...
He told me he loved me.
Well, what did you do?
I was so embarrassed.
I... I told him to get out.
A week later, he...
He was dead.
But you did love him.
Oh, how could I tell him?
It was like I was cheating on jerome.
And now walter will never know.
He'll never know I loved him.
He sat across that board from you for a lot of hours.
Right?
So he knows.
Whether you said it or not,
I'm sure he knows.
We are going to be so late to cooper's dinner.
Um... Why aren't you dressed?
Maybe sam and naomi are right.
Maybe I am putting the practice at risk.
No, they're not right.
Well, I could-- I could step away.
I mean, if that's what people want, which I don't know,
'cause I wasn't invited to the meeting,
But if that's what it takes--
no, look, your book was all about
Exposing yourself to help other people.
You've stood up to everything that's been thrown at you,
And you've come out the other side still standing.
I don't see how tomorrow's meeting with the board
Is gonna be any different.
Win/lose, right/wrong,
You're gonna come through this stronger.
The only mistake I can see is not standing up at all.
Come on. Go get dressed. I can't.
violet, it's a dinner for cooper.
He's your best friend. He's getting married tomorrow.
Don't make me feel any worse than I already do.
I ju--
The idea of facing those people, I...
I texted cooper,
And--and--and when you see him,
Just tell him I love him and I'm sorry.

I wouldn't be here.

Hey.
Where's violet?
She didn't want to come. And I don't really blame her.
Look, I get, of course, you didn't want to lie for violet,
But the way you were talking in that meeting--
pete, it wasn't personal.
Yeah, exactly. It was so cold and emotionless.
But she wrote the book,
Okay, and whether you want to believe it or not,
Now we have a really serious situation on our hands,
Which isn't gonna go away.
So what, you just want to abandon violet?
No, of course not, but...
Look, if that's what you want to believe--
Look, if everybody in this damn practice wants to be mad at me,
Fine. I am still gonna do what I think is right.

First off, this does not count as stalking.
Uh-huh. Charlotte invited me.

You're a good man.

You know, you think you hit it off with someone,
That maybe they're the one-- I mean, you know, the one--
And then there's...
There's just so many ways to screw it up.
But you--you know what? Better sooner than later.
Right? Because if it's not meant to be,
Then you're just setting up yourself

This is fun.
Exactly the way I dreamed it when I was a little girl.
All right, this is ridiculous.
Let's find my parents, get your mom.
The five of us will sit down, and we'll talk this out.
Cooper.
No, don't argue with me.
I mean, we have to resolve this so that tomorrow,
Everyone can be happy and relaxed.
Stop talking and turn around.
My father is nodding his head. So's my mama.
Well, hey.
Good to see you finally talking.
Oh, look, we're all parents here.
Yes, and we do have things in common.
mama.
Well, we don't want our kids to be unhappy.
So... We agree.
You have different religions...
And you come from different cultures...
And your personalities...
And all of these differences don't make for a happy future.
I think what the mothers are trying to say is,
You two shouldn't get married tomorrow.

Well, the joke is that, uh, doctors make the worst patients.
Uh, but--but for me,
Uh, after I started to heal,
It wasn't like I saw an opportunity or anything.
I just, uh, I started writing,
And what came out...
It wasn't just the story of me getting through.
I realized that I was writing, uh, how I got through--
What really worked, what didn't and why.
It's--it's not a road map,
But, um, this book is about making the link,
Not just between doctor and patient,
But person to person.
And it's intended to be, um, uh, proof, I guess,
That if you really commit to helping yourself,
No matter what you've been through,
Then you can come out the other side,
Stronger and... Healthier.
Does that make any sense?
I'm going to ask you the question again.
Did you consider whether,
Given the news coverage of your attack,
Ms. Kent would be easily identifiable in your book?
Um... Honestly, no.
Does the issue of doctor-patient confidentiality
Concern you generally? Come on, neal.
Of course it does. An investigation is one thing,
But to imply a complete lack of professionalism by dr. Turner--
we're concerned about a lack of professionalism
At oceanside wellness generally.
And it may extend beyond dr. Turner.
But for the time being,
We're concentrating on dr. Turner,
Specifically the sharing
Of potentially privileged information--
It sounds like you've already drawn your conclusions--
I never intended to do anything but help people
With that book. Both of you, please.
I think we have enough information
To make a decision here.
The board will be in touch.
I think...
I-I think it's a mistake for us to do this.
Everyone out there, they're miserable.
Our parents don't think it's gonna work,
The practice is falling apart, everyone is fighting,
And I don't care what anybody thinks or how they feel,
Not today.
I don't understand.
All that matters is you and me.
And the rest of 'em?
They don't have to agree or like it or like each other,
Because this is not for them or about them.
I agree, only out there, it's not just you and me.
I know how to make this feel right.

wait. So what did the text say again?
"gone to vegas. Enjoy the food.
Don't wait up."
So they're gonna get married without us.
Do you blame them?
I need a drink. We're coming with you.
Uh, I may bow out as well.
I'm with you.
Wait, wait. Uh, before everybody leaves,
I, um...
I just want to say, I'm sorry.
I-I--you have to know that I didn't mean
To make this hard on any of you.
