Move to Berlin with me.

We leave Monday.
Paul: You could stay on until Christmas and then that's it.
Merry Christmas to me.
I'm saying yes to you, Poppy.
I'm gonna miss you.
Sabi: And yes to Berlin.
Paul: Bessy got into an accident on her bike.
She's non-responsive.
Hello?
7ven: We're going to Berlin.
We are going to Berlin!
7ven, I can't-I can't-I can't talk right now.
What happened?
Um.
(sirens blaring)
Violet: We're just supposed to like go to school
when mom is in the hospital?
We don't know how serious anything is right now.
Dad said 'non-responsive'.
Non-responsive can mean a lot of things.
Like when you don't respond to a text.
That's probably not what he meant.
We literally have no information yet.
Henry, whoa, don't walk into the street.
Why are you lying to me?
Okay, Henry, wait.
Vi, I know it's scary
but until we know what we're dealing with
it's a normal day.
We fired you.
You're not even our nanny anymore.

Yup.

Joey: She must've been going at a good clip.
Is she a serious cyclist?
Um, yeah.
Hmm, maybe she was distracted.
She ran right into a parked poutine truck.
Oh, wow.
Yeah, police told me.
'Kay, so you know that she was intubated at the scene.
She was intubated?
She stopped breathing?
Joey: Oh no, she never stopped.
They intubate so she doesn't vomit into her lungs
while she was unconscious.
Oh. -Yeah.
Ewww.
Joey: She is super lucky to be alive.
We're just waiting to get her into a CT scan,
take a look at her brain and cervical spine.
That is so real.

Yes, King.
I need all your deets

Amazing. I'll-I'll be home in a bit.
