- Surprise, I decided to come home.
- MALE NARRATOR: Previously on "The Oval"...
- What are you up to?
- I have no idea what you're referring to.
- Why didn't you tell me?! - Tell you what?
- That Sharon was pregnant.
- Come here. I'm really stressed. Come on.
- Kyle cannot be around me, ever.
- You need to know that I'll need a new lead person.
And I want that to be you.
- Donald, please don't do this to us.
- Listen to me, okay.
She can never love me the way that you do.
- He doesn't knock? - What is it, Allan?
- Sorry, sir, the president wanted to speak with you.
- Okay, yeah. - Go on.
I want to talk to him.
- Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. Be nice.
- Is there something I can get for you, sir?
- No. - Okay.
I have water, tea, soda.
- No. - Okay.
- I just wanna sit here.
- Okay. - And look at you.
- Okay.
- And study you. - I'm sorry?
- Sorry for what? - You said study me?
I don't understand. - KYLE: Yeah.
I want to see how uncomfortable you are.
- Oh, I'm not uncomfortable, sir.
- You're not? - No, sir.
- You look uncomfortable, Allan.
- Nah, I'm just ahh--I'm just ahh--
- What? - Just a little hot in here.
- Hot? - Yes, sir.
- How? What does hot mean?
- Uh, like, I'm warm.
- Like, you're sexually hot? - [chuckles] No sir.
[clearing throat]
That's not what I mean.
- Well, make yourself clear.
- I'm hot as in, like, the air needs to be turned up
a little bit. - I get that, Allan.
But what's making you that way?
- It's always hot in here, sir.
- It feels fine to me.
- [clearing throat] Well I-- - What did you see?
- MAN: Ladies and gentlemen,
the president and first lady.
- MALE SINGER: ♪ Feels like I'm running out of time ♪
♪ You gotta get yours, I gotta get mine ♪
♪ Not really sure where we're headed to ♪
♪ I just hope that you make it when I do ♪♪
- Do you want me to repeat myself?
- No, sir.
- Then tell me what you saw. - I didn't see anything, sir.
- Good. You keep that up.
- Yes sir.
- Who do you talk to? - Sir?
- Outside of here, who do you talk to?
- Nobody, sir. - Come on.
Come on, everybody talks to somebody.
- Uh, my friends. I have a few friends.
But I don't talk to them about anything
that's going on in this place.
- Okay.
Where are you from?
- New York. - New York.
New York. - ALLAN: [chuckling]
- What part? - Long Island, sir.
- KYLE: Long Island, ah. - Yes, sir.
- I see. Well, let me just tell you this.
If I hear a thing about what you didn't see,
you will not have eyes.
- I hear you, sir. - No.
I mean you will not have eyes.
I will literally remove them.
- Yes, sir.
- And keep them in a jar for safekeeping.
- Sir, look,
you don't have to worry about me, okay?
I know my place here. No worries.
- Okay, okay.
That's good because that's gonna keep you alive.
- I wanna stay alive, sir.

- Hi. - PRISCILLA: Hey, Greg.
- Who's this? - This is Priscilla.
- GREG: Oh, hey. - Hey.
Have you seen Jean?
- No, I've been calling all night.
- So have I.
- GREG: Wait. You haven't seen her either?
- No. I'm getting really worried.
- No, no. Priscilla, something is wrong.
- PRISCILLA: Yeah, it must be.
I'm gonna be getting off soon.
I'm just gonna go by her house.
- No, I'll take off, I'll go over there now.
- Okay, well, can you call me and let me know, please?
- Okay, will do, will do.
- PRISCILLA: Thank you. - No need to. Thank you.
- I know how much you love her.
- Yeah, I do. I'll call you.
- Okay, thank you. Bye.
[sighing]
- Hey.
I said, hi.
Okay, you're right, she is after me.
But you know me, I would never do anything
to hurt you or us.
- Except get your dick -- .
- I didn't. - Oh right, right.
You stopped her mid -- .
- You know how much debt we're in?
Your mother's cancer, the second mortgage.
- So you're blaming my mother's death on this?
- No, no, no, no, that's not what I'm saying.
Please don't do that.
What I am saying is that we both need this job
and we will get through this.
And the First Lady, she asked me
to be her new lead guy.
It's a lot less responsibility and a whole lot more money.
Although, being with the guys now
it's kind of like a demotion.
I'm thinking about taking it.
- Are you that angry with me, Sam?
- What do you mean?
- You do everything by the book.
If an agent gets too close to the lead,
you have them removed,
have them write a full report.
Have you done one on the blow she gave you?
- She didn't give me a--
- Yeah, yeah, see, it's all coming out.
You're mad we don't have kids.
You're mad we don't have sex often.
You're mad about my mother and all the debt.
I...
- That is not fair. I am not. - PRISCILLA: Yes, you are.
'Cause you had so much pride about being debt free.
And you want to be just like your brother Will,
he has all these kids.
And I see it in your eyes every time you're with him.
- Honey...
- You take that job. You do what's best for you.
- I think that this is best for us.
- Sam, there will be no us.
- Cilla, don't say-- - Unh-uh.
- I got Richard trying to have sex with Freda,
I got this creepy ass son of a bitch of a kid,
I know did something to Jean.
I shouldn't even be having to deal with your shit .
I'm just so disappointed in you.
- You want some coffee? - I'm good, thanks.
- You know a watched phone never rings, right?
- If she doesn't call me within the next 30 minutes,
I'm going down there.
- Alright.
I'm going with you. - [phone ringing]
- BOBBY: Lilly? - No, it's Diane.
- Oh, hey.
- DIANE: Is she not with you? - No, she went home.
- DIANE: Really? - Yeah.
- So, she's in? - BOBBY: She's in.
- Good, I'm going in too. - BOBBY: What do you mean?
- Donald called me and wants to meet with me.
So I'm going to the White House.
- Okay.
- DIANE: I think having all angles working for us
will be best.
- Yeah, I think it'd be good too.
Because you're being followed.
- Yeah, I know.
- BOBBY: They're just waiting for the right time.
- I thought about that. And that's why I think it's
best if I get back in good with them.
- Make them think I'm on board.
- Yeah, you get it. - Yeah, I do.
- DIANE: Look Bobby, I know this is dangerous.
- Then you check in on this scrambled line everyday.
- DIANE: I promise I will. Twice a day.
- BOBBY: Yeah, you got it.
- I'll give you a call, let you know how things go.
Okay? - Okay.
- Bobby, we're gonna take this son of a bitch down.
- BOBBY: I know.
[sighs]
- She shouldn't be too eager. - Yeah, I know.
- And neither should you. - I get that.
- And where are you going? - I'm gonna go check on her.
- Alright.
- BOBBY: Woah, what are you doing?
- Coming with you, what do you think?
- Nah, I think you should sit this one out.
- Yeah, well, I'm not sitting this out.
I'm in this too.
- Whatever, man.
- Jean?
Jean?!
Priscilla... - PRISCILLA: Yeah?
- I'm at her house. - PRISCILLA: Is she there?
- The place is torn apart. - PRISCILLA: What?
- Yes.
- PRISCILLA: Did you touch anything?
- No, no, I just opened the door.
- PRISCILLA: Okay, call the police.
- Ahh.
- PRISCILLA: What? Why?
- You know I've been locked up before.
- PRISCILLA: Okay, sure.
- Thank you. Look, I'm really worried. This is crazy.
- PRISCILLA: I know. But get out of there.
- Okay.
- You're getting the hang of it pretty quick.
- Thanks.
- So I want to ask you something.
- Okay.
- Can you tell me more about the location of that cult?
- Oh, I could draw you a map or something maybe.
- You know exactly where they are?
- No.
I just kind of know the general area where they are.
- What do you know about them?
- Well, there are a lot of rumors
and I don't get into those.
- Well, can you tell me about what you've seen, then?
- Yeah, um, so they would just come into the store
where I worked a lot. - Yeah?
- DALE: The women. Yeah.
And they would--they would just buy
the same thing and try to recruit young girls.
- Really? - Yeah.
- What did they want them for? - That gets into the rumors.
- Right, sorry. - No, it's okay.
I just would hate to say something that wasn't true
and then get-- - No, I, I, I understand.
- Okay, glad you understand. - Sure.
Um, you can take a break if you want.
- No, I'm good. - Okay. You did pretty good.
Let me show you a few things,
help you restock better, okay?
- Okay.
- SHARON: This you wanna put here. And then--
- I think someone's trying to get your attention.
- [sighing]
I'll be right back.
You should not be here. - No, I really think I should.
- And why is that, Barry?
We need to talk.
You don't think he'll call the police?
I don't care what he would do, Sharon.
Oh my God, Barry, why is everything so hard with you?
- There's not something that you want to tell me?
- What?! You obviously want me to say something, what is it?
- Sharon. - What?
You know, I'm not doing this with you. You need to leave.
You already drove through this place.
- And I'm about to drive through it again.
- What is wrong with you?!
- You don't have something
that you want to tell me, Sharon?
What are you talking about now?
When were you gonna tell me you was pregnant?
- Barry...
- No, my mother found the pregnancy test
in the trash can, Sharon.
- You need to leave and leave now.
- When were you gonna tell me?
- Just, you need to go. You need to go.
- Is it mine?
- Who else would be the father?
- I don't know, Sharon.
Don't act like I didn't catch you in there with this clown.
Get your ass out of here now. - I'm not going anywhere!
- How's it going up here? - Oh, good.
I think, Sharon seems to think I got the hang of it.
- That's good, good. Where is Sharon?
- She went outside. - Out the front?
- Yeah, yeah, right out there. - Why?
- Some guy was trying to get her attention
and she went outside.
- Just answer the question, please!
- SHARON: You know what? I'm tired of this!
You always do this! - Tell me what, what do I do?
- SHARON: Just leave, please!
- BARRY: Just tell me, is it mine?
Oh my God. Ms. Nancy, thank God.
- Come on. - Ma, what are you doing here?
- I told you I need you to go down
to the funeral home with me. - And I need to talk to her.
- Barry, let's go.
- BARRY: Ma, she's not answering me.
- Will you just come on? - I'm not going with you, Ma.
- Well, then go home.
- No, she will not tell me who the father is.
- Barry, this is a grown woman.
If she don't want to tell you nothing, she doesn't have to.
- What?!
If this this clown's baby, I need to know that.
What is going on with you and all this attitude?
- You don't see what she's doing?
- What is she doing?
- See, y'all trying to make me seem like I'm crazy
and I am not crazy, okay?
- Barry, nobody's trying to say that.
- Are you gonna tell me or not? - I'm not doing this.
- Sharon... - Don't, boy, don't touch me!
- NANCY: Leave her alone. - You alright?
- Man... - Barry, ah, go home.

Mr. President. - HUNTER: Yes?
- This is Dr. Meadows. - Hi.
When did doctors get so beautiful?
- Excuse me? - Don't mind him.
- Okay. - No, no, please do mind me.
- Sir, we had to pull a lot of strings to get this done--
- Why?
- Dr. Meadows is a very respected psychologist, sir.
Oh, really? - Yes, really.
- So how much did you tell her?
- Not much, sir.
- Um, how is she supposed to help my son
if she doesn't know the truth?
Unless you don't trust her?
- Oh no, I trust her, sir.
You see, Dr. Meadows has taken an oath.
What's been discussed between her and a patient
cannot be discussed without that patient's permission.
And in this case, Jason is a minor, so...
- So, what's to keep her from talking?
- Well, I'm a professional.
- We've hired professionals before, right, Donald?
DONALD: Yes sir, we have.
Didn't work out too well, did it?
Well, you see, sir, Dr. Meadows is the best.
- Hmm.
- And she's worked with quite a few high-profile kids.
Yeah. - Really?
Like who? - Sir, you can't ask her that.
- Come on.
- I can't tell you that, okay?
I can't, nor will I.
I can help your son, that's what's important.
But if there's a problem-- - Oh no, there's no problem.
- With all due respect, I'm in demand and--
- I believe that. - Okay, Mr. President.
- I believe that you're in demand.
- Okay, you know what?
I think this is a really good time for us to meet Jason.
Shall we? - Yeah, I think so.
- Okay. - Thank you.
- As I know you are a very busy man.
- Doing what? - Briefings.
- Oh yeah. - Yeah.
- Have a good day, Dr. Meadows.
- Thank you, you too.
- Bye, Donald. - DONALD: Yeah.
- Hey, hey, hey. You alright?
- Yes.
- Better now, yeah? - Yes, I'm fine, Kareem.
- So you really are pregnant?
- Yeah.
- Damn.
- Don't do that. Don't do that.
- No, I just mean...
I just wish it was mine, Sharon, that's all.
- Kareem...
- Sharon, you deserve better than that, you really do.
- Don't you think I know that?
- If you know it, why do you keep dealing with it?
- I don't know! You don't get it.
- I'm trying to get it. Sharon, help me get it then.
Tell me!
- I don't know, okay? I just love that man, okay?
And when it's good, it's good.
- When was the last time it was good?
- Before Ruth took his daughter.
- Oh, so that's why he's this way?
I'm just saying, I want you to think about things clearly.
Right? - I know.
- Because I love you and I can't stand to see you
miserable every day. - I know.
- And I don't want to keep feeling like this either.
- We've been over this. Over and over.
- Do you love me? - Kareem, not now.
- Do you love me?
You love me.
I think you love me.
- I think we should get back to work.
- I think that you should just move in with me.
- Carrying his child?
- I'll love that child like it's my own,
if it means I get to love you too, Sharon.
- You see. - What?
- That's that corny -- I'm talking about.
- What's corny about me being man enough
to take care of you, Sharon?
- Look, look, we talked about this.
Me up here, you back there. So can you just go please?
Please, just go! - Just wait.
- Boy, go!
- Well, I guess you heard it
so you're in the middle of it now, then.
- So he's just having a little rough time
but you'll see when you meet him.
- Yeah, definitely.

If that's okay?

- Come in.
- Hi.
- Who are you? - My name is Dr. Meadows.
Your parents asked that I come and talk to you.
- Oh, is that what we're doing?
- I'm not certain of what you mean.
- You come to, uh, to shrink me?
- No, I came to talk to you.
But more than that, I came to listen.
- [scoffs] Nobody listens to me.
- Well, that's changed.
May I sit?
- Who's paying for you?
- That's not important.
- They don't even think enough of me to pay you?
What is this, coded under some taxpayer scheme?
- Wow, you really think they would do that?
- Oh, yeah.
I mean, they'll do anything, as long as it's not good.
- So you don't think that your parents are good people?
- [scoffs]
Are you kidding me?
- Why don't you tell me more about how you feel about that?
- So you're a psychologist?
- Yes. - Okay.
And you've dealt with a lot of people?
- Go ahead. You know what, ask me anything.
- Okay.
I have a lot of questions.
- Sure.
- She's been in there longer than I expected.
- Why is that, ma'am?
- I know my son.
- Is she okay?
- Who's to say?

Ma'am, may I ask you a question?
- Well, sure.
As long as I may ask you a few. - Hey.
Do you enjoy this?
- Enjoy what?
- This, this, all of this chaos and drama
that surrounds you. Do you enjoy it?
- What chaos and drama?
- I see. - You see what?
- Let's just hope she can help him.
- She can't.
She's only been in there this long
because of how she looks.
- Well...
- [chuckles] Oh, so you did this on purpose?
- You know I had to make it appealing for him, ma'am.
- And how many have you made appealing for my husband?
- Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, ma'am,
we're here to talk about your son.
And I've brought the best.
- She is renowned. - Only the best for you.
But she won't be able to help that creepy little bastard.
I'm sorry, ma'am, are we talking about your son?
- You think that's cute?
- No, no, not at all, ma'am.
- How's your beard?
- I shaved this morning, ma'am. - The woman you married.
- What exactly makes you think that I'm gay, ma'am?
- Everything, honey.
- Well, that's not such a bad thing, now is it?
- No, as long as you're not ashamed of it.
- I'm sorry, when I came in with the doctor
you were headed this way. Were you going somewhere?
- To see you. - Really?
And what can I do for you?
- Sam. I want him to lead my team.
- Sam? What? No.
- I want him.
- Oh, you want...

I can make that happen for you.

Oh.
