[Car horn honks] WOMAN OVER P. A. : Dr. Schreiber to N. l. C. U. Dr. Susan Schreiber to N. l. C. U. , stat. Meg, l want to recuse myself from this. Why? My recommendation, if l were to make it would be to tell the court to support your husband's position. l thought you were on my side. l iust--l believe that the law supports your husband's wishes. So you would iust let her die? The law would. l wouldn't. You see the problem? l'm so sory. - WOMAN: l am! - MAN: No, you're not. - WOMAN: l am! - MAN: No, you're not. MAN: Are you kidding? That's wonde_ul! WOMAN: Isn't that so great? LULU: Barbara, what's going on? l'm getting married. Oh, that's great! He's amazing. l didn't even know you were seeing someone. And l'm pregnant! Oh! Heh! Great. We can't compete with the foreign steel producers. We're carying legacy health care and pension obligations for three times as many former workers as we currently employ. Well, what about that specialty steel idea? Too expensive. No. We have to sit down with labor tell them we need $100 million in concessions or we'll have to close the Mt. Aire works. So what do you want us to do? Burton, you're the one who pushed hard for this reorganization in the first place. You're the one who helped sell the workers on the last round of pay cuts. l need you to do it again. [Grunts] - Dad? - Burton? Are you all right? [Gasping] NICK: Get him some water and some aspirin. ls he having a heart attack? Just get the aspirin! Can you call 911? - Are you all right? - Call 911. [Grunts] # Well, there is trouble in my mind # # There is dark # # There's dark, and there is light # # There is no order, but there is chaos # # And there is crime # # There is no one home tonight # # In the empire of my mind # # There is trouble in my mind # # All the chaos in my mind # Mr. Fallin, you can go in now. Burton: So the cowboy said to the lawyer ''Doesn't make any difference, pardner. ''lt's iust gonna be you and me. '' moman laughs] Hey, Nick, come on in. Nick, say hi to Pa_. This is my son Nick. - Hi, Nick. - Hi. Pa_'s from Bethel Park. Played a little soRball, right? Listen, thank you so much for evemhing. l really appreciate it. OK. So what's going on? Well, the doctor checked me over. Gas. Gas? Gas. Well, um, are they gonna let you go? l iust have to be discharged. Shouldn't be too long. Sit down a minute. So a little embarrassing in that ambulance. Oxygen mask over my face working over me, the siren, pain, and-- l'll tell you, for a few minutes, l thought-- Mr. Fallin, you're free to go. Oh, thanks a lot, Arlene. Let's go. Let's get back to work. How are you doing? Hey. Are you OK? Uh, yeah. Fine. My father ended up in the hospital this morning. l thought he'd had a heart attack. Oh, my god. Is he OK? Yeah, he's OK. lt was iust, uh, it was just gas. Oh. - Yeah. - That's good. Yeah. So what's up? Uh, well, l have this case-- had thís case-- as guardian ad litem for a baby with Krabbe's disease. Never heard of it. lt's terminal, incurable. The baby, her name is Lily she's brain-damaged, and she has a weak heart. She gets pneumonia evey few months. OK. And the parents are iust--well, they're really good people. The mother's an architect. The father teaches at C. M. U. ls this a placement? No, it's that the parents disagree about Lily's medical treatment so the father wants to take the mother to court and argue his position in front of Judge Damsen. We're representing the baby's interests in the hearing. And the father wants a different course of treatment? He wants to let the baby die. And you know, he's probably right to do this. The hospital ethics board agrees with him. But l iust can't. l iust can't in good conscience. l'm having a lot of trouble going before the iudge and playing god. Right. lt's a best interest recommendation. No, l know that, but l've grown pre_ close to the mom. Well, drop the file off on my desk and l'll take a look at it. OK. So l'm glad your dad's OK. Yeah, it was iust a little scare. He, uh--he thought he was gonna die. He's fine. That's good. l'll see you later. BARBARA: Nick! [Giggling] NICK: Oh, what's that for?

Well, l'll--l'll tell him. My dad has cancer. Cigarettes. You know how those old guys live. Yeah, l'm sory. Have you ever been down to Mt. Aire? Sure. l really couldn't believe it either, you know? lt's like a ghost town, you know? Could really use some help. Hmm. OK. So l've got this idea for a kids' center. Provide free day care, aRer-school programs tutoring, you name it. You know, kind of give Iocal families a second chance. Great. l've had some plans drawn up and identified an appropriate site. And, uh, oh, last month Clayton Steel agreed to match any funds that we raise, so l think we're gonna need about and half of that l need to raise from people like, uh, you and your father, you know? People who are from Mt. Aire. l'm not from Mt. Aire. Well, no, l'm saying, like, just for instance if you were to pledge, say, $10,OOO a year for, oh, say 5 years-- Then l'd be out 50 grand. Uh, if you don't mind could you give this to your father? - Sure. - Thanks. Yeah. Listen, congratulations on the engagement. Thank you. She, uh, she's great. Yeah. Yeah? Hey. Hey.

Yeah? He says he knows you. Evan Puskaric. Red's boy? Yeah. Yeah? [Chuckles] Red Puskaric. Boy, in his day a living legend. We were in the National Guard together. Played on the same defensive line together. l wasn't--l wasn't in his league. God, l wonder how he's doing. He has lung cancer. Huh. An_ay his son's tying to raise some money for this thing. He, uh, comes on vey strong. Card's on the table. [Door opens and closes] [Knock on door] MAN ON TV: And now it's time to look ahead and whether it was realistic or not expectations within the Steeler organization this year [Coughs] Despite an uncharacteristic spending spree by the Rooney family there are gonna be several off-season issues. Red? Yeah, what do you want? Burton Fallin. Burton Fallin. Yeah. What the hell? Yeah, our--our boys ran into each other this morning. l, um l iust thought maybe it was high time l came by. [Sighs] Well. Good to see you, Red. You want a drink? Yeah. BURTON: He had a hell of an arm. l happened to see that game Evan started for Navy. Saw him take that hit. Heard the bone break clear up in the stands. Mmm. Evan kept saying in the ambulance he iust wanted to finish the game. Kid never quits. Wonder where he got that from. So how's your boy? Oh, he's a hell of a kid, Red. Hell of a kid. He works with me. He works at my firm. He's a partner. A lawyer, too? Yeah. Hell of a kid. You got a smoke? [Chuckles] l do. Heh. Red. Well, maybe l'll ioin you. Here you go. My son takes my cigarettes on account of the cancer. Uh-huh. Are you getting treatment of any kind? Hell, no. l like my hamburgers and l like my cigarettes and whiskey. Mmm-hmm. Well l know some pre_ good doctors. Right, and l know a guy who went to a doctor said he wanted to live to be 100 and the doctor says, ''Well, do you drink or smoke ''Or, um, sleep around or eat too much?'' Guy says, ''No, l never do any of that stuff. ''l iust take good care of myself. '' And the doctor said-- ''So why do you want to live to be 100?'' [Laughs] You heard it. [Door opens] BURTON: Oh. Hi. Evan, this is Burton Fallin. How are you? lt's an honor to meet you, Sir. Thank you. Thank you. l ran into your son today. He's quite a guy. Oh, thank you. Thank you, yeah. So you're a paramedic, right? Actually, iust a volunteer. Uh-huh. The town doesn't have enough money to pay anybody, so-- Good. Evan's getting married. Oh? Congratulations. Gonna have a baby. Really? That's a blessing for you. A granddad. [Coughing] [Coughing] l gotta lie down. Yeah, l've gotta get going, too. lt was really great to see you, Red. Take care of yourself. Thanks for coming by. You bet. So did Nick tell you what l'm doing out here? Yeah. Yeah, he mentioned something. l came back a few months ago, and l just couldn't believe what was going on down on Main Street. Yeah. Not good, is it? Excuse me. l'm looking for Ray Howard. l'm Ray Howard. Are you Nick Fallin? Yeah. That's my daughter Lily. The disorder is inherited. lt's an enzyme deficiency that destroys the insulation around her nerves. Right. All they can really do is treat her symptoms. They stick needles in her. They, uh, feed her through tubes and they revive her when her body just wants to let go. That's a lot of pain for a [Baby cying] Right, well, uh, thanks. l love my daughter. l iust don't think that my love should come at the cost of her suffering another day. [Baby cying] He is so great and he's iust terrific with Russell. Um, did you say that you used to baby-sit for him? Yeah, when l was a senior in high school he was in the seventh grade. And then l ran into him and l stopped into this local bar and we iust started talking and he has these great ideas. l mean, at first, he was talking to me about helping out with the not-for-profit thing. So l said l would, and then, um we started meeting about that, and then, well, and then. [Giggling] And how far along are you? l'm iust over 12 weeks. Oh, Barbara, that's so exciting. - Isn't it good? - Yeah. Hey, um, l want you to be my matron of honor. Really? Yeah. Or is it maid? [Laughs] l don't know. l really don't know what l am since l'm not divorced yet. Do you get to be a maid again or are you always a matron? Well, it's my wedding, my rules. So you can be whatever you want to be. l would love to. Thank you. - Really? - Yeah. You should bring a date to the wedding. Oh. Eh, l don't know. No, you should. Who am l gonna bring? Who? Come on. What? How long are you planning on torturing him? Who? [Sighs] OK, OK. Never mind. Never mind. Thank you. All right. OK. l iust feel so stupid because Brian just leR 3 weeks ago and l haven't stopped thinking about l mean, you know, all the time. So iust do something about it. Listen, there's this place. lt's a nice place, this B&B Book a room there and take him there aRer the wedding. l don't know. Lulu, Lulu, listen to me. l was alone for a long time before l finally met Evan and had the guts to do something stupid. OK? So the cowboy says ''Doesn't make any difference what you wear. ''lt's iust gonna be you and me. '' [Chuckles] That's a good one. That's good. So, Mr. Fallin-- Burton, please. Burton. What do you think? l think this center could change the face of the whole town, you know? Well, l'll sure think about it. Great. So, listen, uh it was great seeing your dad. Yeah. And he must be vey proud of having a son like you. - l Hope so. - Yeah. [Siren in distance] [Knock on door] Come in. Nick: You wanted to see me? Hey, yeah, come on in. Sit down. Nicholas, l've been-- l've been thinking. Been thinking about my legacy. Your legacy? Yeah. You know, my old town is dying. Those families need to have a chance. l mean, they need to have somewhere to go something to do. So you want to help out and build this children's center? Yeah. l want to unde_rite it. Be half a million dollars. Some of that money would come out of your inheritance. You know, Dad, he can't get this center built unless Clayton kicks in matching funds. l know. And if they declare bankruptcy next week? lt's why l want to do it quickly. lt's your money. Well, l think it'd be a vey special thing something we could all be proud of. Good, yeah. Nick. l'm here to see your father. Listen, do you mind stepping into my office for a second? Sure. l was iust wondering-- Listen. l'm an Annapolis graduate, OK? Second lieutenant in the Marines served in Desert Storm. Sit down. Led about 40 men in my platoon. ARer the war, l started my own corporate security company basically bodyguards who understand technology. Why aren't you doing that now? 'Cause l sold the company to a larger outFit based in Germany. KraR GeselleschaR. Right, OK. Stock hasn't held up too well but, uh, l did all right. OK, great. Well, l'd like to see your budget and your operating plan. This is for your father? No. It's for me. Great. l'll get that out to you first thing tomorrow. - Barbara. - Hey. You got a second? BARBARA: l, um-- uh, not right now. l gotta meet Evan at the courthouse um, for the marriage license. l'll see ya later. Hey, Nick. Uh, did you meet with Meg Howard yet? - Uh, no. - Oh. Could l talk to you for a second? Sure. So how's your father doing? You want to talk about the Howard case? Uh, yeah, well uh, no. Do you want to go to Barbara's wedding with me on Saturday? What's that? Saturday, do you want to go to Barbara's wedding? Well, of course, we're all going. With me. What do you mean? [Sighs] As my date. lf you want. l think, uhyes. Yeah? OK. Great. When do l pick you up? Um, no, l want to drive. You do? Yeah, l asked you, so l'll pick you up at 10:OO. Great. l can't go ask my members to take another pay cut. Well, if they don't, the factoy's gonna close. We gave up millions of benefits and back pay You got 300/o of the factoy in return. Kept your iobs, kept the plant open. We took a huge pay cut and haven't seen a dime in return. Neither has Clayton. Look, the bottom line is under this present agreement the plant's unprofitable. It's that simple. You want an 110/o pay cut you're gonna have to give us another 200/o of the factoy in equity. Clayton's not gonna go for that. l'll tell the members what you want but l won't endorse it. OK, well, if they don't, plant's gonna close. No, it's not. [Door closes] So l got an invitation to Barbara's wedding. Oh, yeah. l didn't even know she was seeing someone. [Chuckles] You know, she's pregnant. She's pregnant? Yeah. Whoa. Did you meet the guy? What's he like? Well, l'm driving out. You want to go together on Saturday? l can't. Mrs. Howard? Yes? Hi. l'm Nick Fallin. Louisa Archer called you about me taking over the case. - Hi. - Hi. She was on my side, you know? l know. Mr. Fallin, look, l understand the law regarding best interests for children. Age, life expectancy, amount of suffering views of those close to the patient. The court does take into consideration those factors, yes. You've spoken with my husband? l have. He's given up on her. He's just weak. He actually complains that he can feel Lily's pain which is totally egocentric and totally impossible. We have no idea what Lily's going through. We do know that her suffering if she is suffering is relieved through pain medication and they could come up with a cure for this soon. People all over the world are working on it. OK. OK. So here's where l'm confused, Mr. Fallin with the hospital ethics board's ruling. Lily's quality of life is relatively high right now. She has me, l have her and we spend our days together. She's got a community of kids she lives with children like her who struggle but who live. So what gives the government this hospital, or even my husband the right to say she can just die? [Baby cying] [Knocks on door] Lulu? Oh, hey, Barbara-- Well, we're standing there in front of the clerk and Evan is searching through his briefcase for the divorce decree. Divorce decree? Yeah, he was married to this woman in Atlanta and they got a divorce about a year and a half ago but he can't find the decree. And so Evan says that he can call her up and they can send it up overnight. You know, they're still on good terms. Ok, so there you go. Well, it's iust that the license takes 48 hours so l have to get it done before tomorrow morning. Oh, do you want me to get it for you? - Could you? - Yeah. Ok, here's Evan's social security card in case you need more info. OK. Thank you. [Knocking on door] Yeah? Hey, Red. RED: Burton. How are ya? Remember Milt Mosites, Sal Torris? Yeah, sure. How are ya? We'll come back later, bring you that stuff. Good to see ya. They're still sore. Oh, yeah. What do you got there? A couple tapes l ran across Steelers games, fiRies and sixties. l thought you might get a kick out of 'em. [Coughs] You want some water, Red? Some water? My body is slowly shutting down on me. What's the doctor say? They want to go in and take out what they can. They can't do much for my lungs but they can clear out my-- whatever you call it. You know, give me a bag. So there it is. A bag to crap in. l'm sory, Red. You know, when l first heard the news l put my deer rifle under my bed loaded. Decided that when it came to this l'd iust do eveybody a favor and take a ride down 51 a while park the car, take a walk in the woods. You know, just to save the mess. Oh, Red. Funny thing. l can't do it. My will. l want to meet my grandchild. So why don't you iust go ahead and have the operation? Oh. What about--what about the wedding, Red? lf you're up to it, l'd be glad to pick you up take you over there, and bring you back. No, no, no. l--l don't want to be a burden. lt's no trouble, Red. Red. lf you're up to it, l, uh l'd like to do that. The Howards gave us conflicting instructions regarding Lily's treatment. l took the case to the hospital ethics board. Standard practice. The ethics board agrees with Ray Howard. For what it's worth, yes. Well, how did they come to that decision? Well, we take into account whether or not the illness is terminal whether the patient will die within the next year. We weigh the impact of the care on the family and we ask ourselves if treatment can improve her prospects for living or quality of life or if it simply prolongs her suffering. lf you were to stop treatment right now how much longer would she live? She'll be fine until she gets pneumonia again or has a seizure. At that point, we'd alleviate her pain but she would go in a few days or even hours. [Baby cying] LULU: Nick. Evan told Barbara that he was married once. NICK: So? So l checked him out and he was actually married _ice. Once to this woman in Atlanta that Barbara doesn't know about and once to some woman in Wheeling, West Virginia. Her name's Melissa Buckley. Where'd you get this? lt was part of the file from the court in Georgia. They faxed it to me. He never told her, huh? No. She has no idea. Why would he lie about it? l don't know. What do you think? You think l should stay out it? No. l think you should tell her. Can l make a copy of this? Yeah. - BARBARA: Hey, you _o. - NICK: Hey. l can come back. No, no, no. l was iust going. See ya. Yeah. Uh, so? So it's all set. lt is? Yeah, evemhing's done. l filed it with the court. [Sighs] Oh, my god. By the way, uh, l heard a rumor. - You did? - Mmm-hmm. That Nick has a date to the wedding. [Laughs] Oh, yeah. Hey, l called that place, too, that you suggested and l got us a-- Yeah, it's kind of crazy, isn't it? He's gonna be so much trouble. - [Laughs] - Good for you. [Knock on door] [Door opens] - Mr. Fallin. - Oh, Evan. How are ya? Come on in. l was iust-- Here, sit down here. Thank you. l was iust thinking about you. How are you doing? Good. So So, um, there have been rumors about the Clayton plant. Oh, yeah, right. Some of the workers have heard that management may ask for another round of cutbacks. Well, l'm not at libem to discuss-- Well, the thing is, Mr. Fallin, um if the mill fails then the children's center, evemhing l mean, l won't be able to proceed with my plans and the town-- l understand, yeah. l mean, you know, l was counting on Clayton donating nearly $1 million, so-- Yeah, l iust can't-- l can't discuss the-- Well, Mr. Fallin, l know that l pitched a different plan OK, and l don't have another sponsor lined up yet but l still feel that this center will have a huge impact on this town no matter what happens to the mill. Well. l mean, if Clayton pulls out, can l still count on you? Answer's yes. Matter of fact, here's my first installment. Now let me give you a little advice. lf l were you, l'd get Clayton to match that as soon as possible. You understand? - Yes, Sir. - OK. When a patient is dying caregivers should ultimately focus on care, not cure. Thank you, Doctor. Mr. Fallin, your recommendation? l'd like to make it understood to the family that the only reason l even have to make a recommendation is because the parents cannot agree. They're aware. [Clears throat] lt's impossible for me to know Lily's wishes. The issue before me is simply the facts of her case which l've taken into consideration. How can death be in Lily's best interest? - Mrs. Howard. - l'm sory. You say you're here only to determine best interest but what you're really deciding is whether my daughter lives or dies. - Mrs. Howard, please. - Just be honest. My daughter's life is at stake here. Mrs. Howard. Mr. Fallin? lt is my belief that Lily Howard's best interests are better served by alleviating her pain but doing nothing more than that. This is not an easy thing to do but upon reading the ethics board's recommendation and hearing today's testimony l'm in agreement with Mr. Fallin's recommendation. [Bangs gavel] They'll--[Sobbing] They'll let her die. They'll let her die. They'll let her die! Please, Meg, please. This is for the best. Oh, for you! This is not for Lily. This is for you so that you can move on and leave us. This is not for Lily. They'll let her die. [Meg sobbing] Missy Buckley? Can l help you? Yeah, hi. My name is Nick Fallin and l iust wanted to ask some questions about your ex-husband. l don't understand. l haven't spoken to Evan in years. Well, he's been hiding the fact that he was married to you, and l was just wondering why. Nick. Evan. l spoke with Missy Buckley. She told me about a few things and then, aRer that, l called your second wife who told me a vey similar stoy. - Right. - Yeah. You give my father his money back. l'm not tying to cheat your father, man. And l think you owe it to Barbara to tell her the truth, don't you? Or l will. l love Barbara, and l admire your father but when l say l'm gonna do something l do it. You understand me? No, l don't understand. Ok, look, look. Please, Nick. Just please give me a chance, OK? Now listen, l know what happened in the past is the past, and it-- Evan, l'm done here. What do you know? Huh? What do you know? Growing up the way you did? Evemhing being handed to you? l watched people die, OK? And it bothered me. What do you know about going to war? What do you know about being of service? [Gasps] [Breathes heavily] l'm sory. But you have no right to intrude. l'm gonna be a father and l'm gonna make a life for myself here. You understand? l stopped by your house. Hey. Oh, yeah. Just had some work to do, so-- Look, about the children's center. Yeah? Evan Puskaric. l found some things out. Found out? Yeah, he's not who he says he is. He wasn't a war hero. He was medically discharged aRer a nervous breakdown. He's been married before. Both times, he took his wife's family's money. Well Yeah, so, uh-- Wait a minute. What made you-- What led you to find out about all of this? Well, mostly Barbara. And you. Me? Yeah, come on, Dad. You know, l mean, since your health scare and stuff with Clayton you haven't exactly been yourself. Hmm. The thing is, Nicholas, um, back in the fiRies we were in the same National Guard unit and we got called up. My father was sick my mother was taking care of him so they gave me a hardship exemption. But, uh Red went to Korea. l stayed home. When he came back, he was shot to hell. A good man with a great future. He comes back to nothing but a long recovey and a lot of drinking. Never came back. You don't owe him. Probably right. l'll iust get the check back. Guy's getting married tomorrow, but l'll-- l'll get the check back on Monday. You OK? Yeah, l'm fine. l'm iust not used to being a passenger. Oh. Yeah, you know, 'cause l-- You really haven't said a word all morning, so [Chuckles] Do you think that this is weird or-- lt's a little weird. Good weird, but, uh You look beautiful. Thank you. You're welcome. You know, it's good that we didn't say anything. She loves him and they're going to have a baby. And what if we're wrong And he really does love her, and, you know We would have ruined the whole thing. [Church bells ringing] Evan. Are you OK? l want to be a good husband, a good father. You will be. l want to be true. Evan? You know, when l-- When l came home to be with my father-- To take care of him, right? Well, l l didn't really have an_here else to go. l wanted to do something that would impress him before he, uh-- before he l never told my father this, but, uh when l was in Kuwait, l tried to desert. l had my men. We'd been in the sand for about a week. We weren't even facing fire. And l panicked. l panicked, and l fell apart. They put me in a psych ward. When l came back, l-- l lied about the treatment l had to undergo. l lied about a lot of things. l've been married _ice, not once. The first time before Kuwait the other in Atlanta. Twice? And there was money problems with the families and with me. [Sighs] These women had, uh pre_ wealthy fathers. They gave me money to start businesses businesses that never worked. So l wasted their money tying to look successful. And when the money ran out, l leR. Why did you do it? 'Cause l failed, honey. l iust l failed. [Sighs] l was supposed to be a football star a war hero. l was supposed to be something that l guess l'm not. Something better. l was supposed to be something better. Evan. Do you love me? Yeah. Evan. [Sighs] This time, you will be. BURTON: So the cowboy says to the lawyer ''There's going to be drinking and dancing ''fighting, screwing. '' And the lawyer says ''Sounds great to me, but what do l wear?'' You all right? Sit down. Sit down. You all right? Yeah. And don't forget you've got to dance with the bride. l don't know. Maybe we should have told her, but there's iust some things l don't like to get in the middle of. - Like the Howard Case? - Right. That's why you gave it to me? Yeah. You're different. l'm different? Yeah. l don't think you get as caught up in these things. Right. Huh. Why? Did it bother you in court the other day? lt--it affected me, yeah. l, uh, l may not show my feelings to eveyone but it doesn't mean that l'm not affected by things. l feel things. You know, it's hard. We're forced to make decisions based on what is in front of us. lt's true. Othe_ise we're paralyzed. l'm kind of nervous about this but l'm going to tell you. l got us a place to go aRer the wedding. You got a place? Yeah, a place to go aRer the wedding. l iust--l don't know. [Laughs] And it's not like me, usually. l iust leave these things up to fate. Or to someone else. No, up to fate. But this time, it's up to me. OK. Well, uh, this place to go, uh did you think to--ahem. Did you get a late check-out? [Laughs] Vey funny. Oh! Barbara? Yeah. You OK? Yeah. It's a cramp. Nerves. Heh. Um, have you seen Lulu and Nick? No. Well, we can't start without Lulu. l'll go check. Thanks. [Sighs] Hey. Hey. Oh, god. Lulu. [Siren in distance]
