- Is everything okay?

- Angela thinks I'm hiding something.

Little does she know,

she's right.

Honey, I really wanted

it to be a surprise.

But let me show you. Mom's

already upstairs preparing it.

Come on, you're gonna love this.

Come on, let's go.

You're gonna love this.

Let's see.

Hey, mom.

Still kicking ass?

Okay, so, Katie designed it,

mom bought the furniture,

and this is the best part.

Just picked it up

from the framers.

Gabriel.

You... you picked out a name?

Baby, we did, remember?

No, sweetheart, that was one out

of the three that we discussed.

I think it's perfect.

I don't give a sh*t

what you think.

What else do you two talk about

when I'm not around?

Angela, come on, what is this?

Lately they've been talking

a lot about

how worried they are about you.

Oh, really.

Have they?

So, I guess that you

told them, didn't you?

I actually didn't.

Maybe I should of.

- She's been using again.

- Oh, no.

That's bullshit.

That's bullshit.

- You're not high right now?

- No, of course not.

I'm upset because I caught her

referring to herself as

Cora's mother this morning.

Cora bumped her head.

I was consoling her.

Yes, as her mother!

Which you are not.

She said that I was going

to abandon her, Cora.

She said this

straight to my face.

I'm sorry, we... we... we don't

know anything about this woman.

We don't know what

she's capable of.

I'm sorry, we don't know

enough about her past.

We know she's fled

an abusive marriage.

Yes, yes we do.

And if she disappeared once,

she can disappear again.

- Angela, just stop, okay?

- And what about Linda?

Hmm? You were f***ing

her weren't you?

- Oh, come on.

- You named it, you called it.

That was her in the guest room

that time wasn't it?

- What are you implying?

- Yes, and if you had asked me,

- I would've told you.

- I did ask you.

I asked you straight

to your face and you lied.

Did you or did you not

know that Linda

was gonna be our surrogate?

Angela, stop it!

Was Linda's death an accident?

Or maybe you wanted to get

rid of her and carry our baby.

- Enough!

- Tell me! Answer me this question!

- Please can you-

- answer me this question!

- Brian, the baby, please. Can you

just stop, please? - Make her answer.

She's faking it.

You knew it!

You called it from day one.

She's a liar!

She's faking, don't you...

Oh my, god.

Make her answer the question!

Answer the question!

Just get some rest, Katie, okay?

She's fine, they're both fine.

But I want her in my

office tomorrow at 10.

We'll do some additional tests.

I mean...

You've put our

baby's life at risk.

What if he's already at risk?

What if he's at risk right now?

Look at me, look at me.

Look at me.

Are you on something right now?

- No.

- Yes or no?

- No. No!

- No?

I asked her a question.

Why couldn't she answer it?

You endangered the baby.

Katie has grounds

for keeping him now.

Do you understand that?

I don't wanna lose

my son, Angela.

I don't wanna lose you.

Listen.

Brian, I am not on

anything right now.

I got that prescription for Katie

because she was freaking out.

I have not taken one.

I threw the whole thing away

unopened, I swear it.

I swear it on Cora's life.

Prove it,

i want a urine sample.

Really?

And then I want you

to apologize to Katie.

I don't care what you say

but you have to make this right.

Sh*t.

You cut your hand.

Yeah, chopping the carrots.

You need to be real careful.

Here you go.

Thanks.

I'm really truly sorry

and profoundly embarrassed.

I don't know,

somehow seeing you like that.

Carrying my child, it's...

I mean they warned

you about this.

You know, they say the moment

that it really hits you.

I mean, my child is always

gonna be half Brian's

and half someone elses.

And for some reason

with Cora it was okay

even though it was

someone elses DNA.

At least I carried her,

it was my womb.

We had that time to bond.

And now it's just, you know,

not my egg, not my body.

All I could do was watch. I

just, thought I could handle this.

I just... I just don't know

what my place is.

I, I don't know, that's

why I got the prescription.

I just started panicking.

I'm so sorry, please forgive me.

You accused me of some

pretty terrible things.

I know, I know.

I'm so, so, so, so sorry.

Please forgive me.

Yes.

Brian wants me to

give him a urine sample.

Let me get you the cup.

Thank you.

For accepting Angela's apology.

Of course. Well, the last

thing I want is for her

to question either one of us.

Katie, if she were using, why

would she have given the sample?

I know, but,

let's just be sure.

Hello, my name

is Monica Wheeler.

And if you're considering

anonymous egg donations,

please consider

amazing possibilities.

We have state of

the art facilities

and the finest physicians.

You will be in great hands.

Okay.

Amazing possibilities.

Hi, there, um, may I speak

with Monica Wheeler, please?

Um, I'm sorry,

Ms. Wheeler passed away,

but maybe I can help

you with something?

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that.

When?

Um, four years ago now.

May I ask how?

It was ruled a suicide.

Suicide?

You don't sound so convinced.

No, Monica loved life.

Anyway, is there something

else I can help you out with?

Uh, yes.

Yes, um...

I... I... I worked with a donor

of yours a few years back.

- Welcome back.

- Yeah, um...

And I know there's a strict

policy of anonymity,

but I'm concerned that the donor

has found her way into my life.

Ma'am, if you're asking for the

identity of a donor, I'm afraid I can't.

Listen, I think

she may be mentally unwell.

Possibly dangerous. Please.

I'm sorry.

Yes, of course, I understand.

Um, let me ask you

another question.

You know the mural

in Monica's office?

You know, the real beautiful

one with the tree of life?

I love it, so I was wondering, could

you tell me the name of the artist?

- I can't.

- Why not?

The artist was

one of our donors.

Thank you.

Hey, ang, long time no see.

Listen, I have a favor to ask.

I need a DNA test,

how fast can you do that?

It might take a moment

but I'll make the call.

Okay, would a hair sample do?

Only if you get the root,

saliva's better.

Right, right, okay, thanks.

Whoa, whoa, whoa,

let me help you with that.

You shouldn't be cutting anything

with that nasty cut on your hand.

Oh, yeah,

you're probably right, thanks.

- I got it.

- Here's your juice, girls.

You guys are being so

quiet this morning.

Here ya go, have some juice.

What ya doing? Who's this?

A doggy.

What's your

favorite animal, guys?

Mine is a unicorn.

Mine is a...

Mine is a horsy.

Is it the one that's got the...

What's it called?

- The horn.

- - The horn.

Take one more little sip.

One more little sip,

finish that up.

Good girl.

- Where does your fish go?

- - Ploop, ploop.

Ah, ploop, ploop,

that's a good one.

Alright, that's good, girls.

Watch this.

Alright, you done with this,

guys? Oh, good job, good job.
