Adopting a newborn, clean slate baby, like I was

Advi... she gives horrible advice.

After he messed up with my mom.

After I wash you out,

After we got some rest.

Again? What what?

Ah, crap

Ah, maybe give her a break, you know?

Ah, that'd be great.

Ah.

Ah.

Ain't that something?

Alicia Keys cool

All of that I can sort of explain away to the kids, but...

All of your concern, but I'm not blowing this one.

All your movies, like, a thousand times.

Already my nickname. You know, I was branded at birth.

Already tonight. What can this kid not do?

Alright everybody. Welcome to "The Manny".

Alumni Honors Ceremony. Go, Lions!

Am I crazy? Or am I doing

Am I...

Amazing speech, man.

Amazing.

Amber.

America seems to really be liking the the black Manny.

An errand?

An even more massive dream.

An oatmeal bath here in a bit,

And a daddy to stay at home.

And a nice pair of pants?

And action.

And action.

And agreed your hair is funky," is gonna make her feel welcome?

And all of that is fine.

And all the other wedding crap

And all this other crap I got

And all you've accomplished. What you've gone through.

And and I get "Oof."

And anything else if I could.

And be sad and damaged just because you are.

And because of that, you had a wonderful life.

And binge watch The Handmaid's Tale

And cut.

And don't get it twisted, sis, I wake up every morning

And Dora, our maid Dora, she wasn't just a child

And emotional and cliché...

And even when he tries to tell people

And even when I watch Tom Hanks,

And everything you've accomplished over the past year,

And explain everything to you guys.

And falls through coffee tables.

And father daughter dance.

And feel them love the crap out of you.

And for a split second I can smell the ring again.

And fruit and things in the water

And God knows you have

And guys like that sensitive kid on My So Called Life are in.

And he does very well for himself

And he explained to me what that word meant.

And he found success on another path.

And he got upset,

And he just kept pushing me.

And he makes millions, ladies and gentlemen.

And he needs painkillers to get through it.

And he offers you, a C plus student

And he tries so hard to be strong,

And he'll ask you a few questions, like,

And he's gonna die on your watch

And he's not getting up.

And her mom just got arrested,

And here I am, a 37 year old woman,

And here we are, man. It's 20 years later.

And here's what I really don't want.

And holding that breath for the rest of my life.

And how's he punished?

And I advise you, 'twas better

And I am finally on the brink of something special

And I am trying to be supportive,

And I am very sorry.

And I can't change the endings.

And I didn't even know that was a thing.

And I didn't get my workout in, so this is my workout.

And I didn't want the first time again to...

And I don't think I'm ready to talk about any of that yet.

And I don't think you know the half

And I fail... and I fail, and I fail and...

And I got scared and my parents had to pick me up.

And I have some questions about your home visits.

And I hope that we can make it better.

And I I appreciate all of your effort,

And I I appreciate all of your effort,

And I just, I couldn't leave her.

And I know that you've had this dream

And I know this, you see, because I'm a perfectionist.

And I know you have this notion in your mind,

And I know, listen, I know that everyone

And I left the tour.

And I love you, and you're sick, so I will risk going downstairs

And I need to be sharp for this recovery.

And I need to get a handle on it

And I need to get a handle on it

And I shouldn't need to be pushed or coddled.

And I spend way too much money there,

And I swear to you, I can see it all

And I swear to you, son,

And I thank you for watching out for her, but make no mistake,

And I think I looked very chic, thank you.

And I think that you should try out

And I think you're being reckless.

And I thought I had it under control, like the first time, but...

And I traveled across country to miss the taping of a sitcom

And I want you to know

And I want you to know...

And I wanted to bail when I saw James Marsden ready to read?

And I wanted to bring you to the perfect place

And I wanted to say the perfect thing.

And I wanted to see Kardashians.

And I was really nervous, and I'm telling you,

And I will be damned if I let this stupid knee

And I woke up.

And I won't do it anymore.

And I... I just need to come in for a second and look for it.

And I'll put some calamine lotion on, okay?

And I'll tell you...

And I'm gonna be home before tonight.

And I'm gonna miss your birthday.

And I'm here to tell you,

And I'm not gonna let you screw up your knee

And I'm not ready to stop yet.

And I'm not the only one who gave up on my dreams, Jack.

And I'm not unfulfilled, and you're not an alcoholic,

And I'm sorry,

And I'm sorry, but...

And I'm thinking for a moment about my kids,

And I'm vetoing Road House.

And I'm... I'm still really upset,

And I've hidden it from you

And I've I've hidden it from our kids.

And I've kept that hidden from you guys because...

And I've watched their faces light up?

And if I can't adjust to you, then...

And if I'm seeing me in you,

And if life breaks for you

And if you ever start heading

And if you go home, you'll be sad.

And if you have a problem, we will fix it together.

And if you want to know what's best for her, it's me.

And in my career, I never saw a kid with so much natural talent,

And instead I just made things a whole lot worse for her.

And interacting with her.

And it just builds up inside, and then...

And it stuck with me.

And it's getting ridiculous.

And it's in D.C.

And it's not just my big house,

And it's worth every damn penny.

And just sweep your husband off his feet.

And Kevin is gonna think that his only

And make a bad impression.

And make it count.

And me and Queen Latifah

And memories that don't.

And Miguel is the key to my plan

And my father sat me down,

And my father, he had a drinking problem.

And my fear...

And my girl was alive,

And my guidance, you could be on your way

And not just because of all of the beautiful things you said,

And nothing but the truth.

And now he's freaking out, like we're not up for it.

And now I'm jet lagged, you got me out here sweating,

And now she's four and she's deaf.

And now the crowd,

And now they ask me to return to do this special episode,

And now we're gonna potentially

And now we're just taking a moment to...

And now we're those people, Beth.

And now you're Randalling out on me like this was my idea.

And now, an addendum to my earlier advice,

And oftentimes in our marriage, yes, it was your father.

And on the planet, and maybe in the entire universe?

And once, at one of Hannah Brubaker's summer parties,

And one just earlier this year.

And one very opinionated mother.

And perfectly round scoops of ice cream.

And put your jams on.

And rather than coming to see me to get the knee looked at,

And real and fulfilling,

And said, "Let's get out of here."

And says those things to you?

And see your house.

And self loathing, and it's all...

And send her back to Connecticut.

And she still goes to you first for the boo boo kiss

And she's been in and out of foster care a bunch of times,

And she's handling it like a champ.

And shown prospective foster parents,

And since you are unable to post bail,

And so we should, uh, we should just give her

And some freshly squeezed orange juice, and voilà.

And somehow nothing I expected.

And sometimes you might lose iPad privileges.

And St. Mary's, right?

And suffered some losses.

And that child became my life.

And that includes you, too, Beth.

And that is why you have to let it heal fully, all right?

And that stranger became my child.

And that, sir,

And that's the tour. Man, I cannot believe

And that's when he really showed himself to be a star.

And that's why I'm here with you right now.

And the girls. The gays.

And the others came not that long after.

And the questions are so personal.

And the second I get out of here, I'm coming back for her.

And the she says she's too disappointed to talk.

And the show, I mean, the show, you know, it seems to be doing...

And the strange thing is...

And the white board over there

And the wisdom to know the difference.

And then a race car goes down a slide and hits a marble.

And then Grandpa Williams started flying the helicopter.

And then I haven't figured out the middle yet,

And then I managed to screw that up, too.

And then I started remembering you, too.

And then I watched those smiles disappear

And then I'll come in your room and I'll help you get ready.

And then pop!

And then she doesn't even bother to show up for the visit?

And then she just...

And then she starts criticizing me

And then she tells me that when you were little kids,

And then the knee goes, and then bam,

And then there were my birth parents, who I had never met.

And then we got to get ready for school.

And then you pointed at me

And there are places, and there are people

And there he is! Kevin Pearson, superstar.

And there's...

And these things that we've experienced are...

And they happen when I let myself get stressed out,

And they haven't even been written yet.

And they say that on the other side of it,

And those are not my cigarettes.

And try it on, and maybe wear it tonight?

And upsetting that you just said that.

And we are absolutely getting a changing table

And we bought Amber a car so she would hate us less.

And we came to a decision.

And we could talk.

And we discussed how difficult it could be,

And we don't have anything good to eat.

And we listened to Billy on the radio.

And we were having a son

And we would watch it when we had a cold,

And we, uh, kiss each other good night before bed.

And we, we realized an even bigger dream,

And we're already mid disturb, come on in.

And we're not talking about a baby here.

And we're out.

And what makes you think we can handle that?

And what name shall this child be known?

And when I held you,

And who do we have here?

And who does that?

And who knows?

And whoosh, you're married.

And yes, I wanted to adopt.

And you can give her your cheerleading,

And you can't ask me to side with you, okay?

And you got to stop constantly

And you know what she told me?

And you know when I was wearing it?

And you pulled him away.

And you showed up, and you said all that stuff, and,

And you stay home and are the girl?

And you still make me feel like a stupid...

And you wanted a daughter like you,

And you were gonna calm me down, so we switching places?

And you will not dismiss me

And you wound up over there,

And you write him an apology letter.

And you'll say, "Yes, we do."

And you're gonna look amazing in that dress.

And you're not her husband.

And you're not supposed to approach me

And you're not your father.

And your bio dad had a drug problem.

And your falsetto blows; You're out of practice, right?

And your father came to surprise me,

And your father wasn't perfect, either.

And, honestly,

And, I'm telling you, I in time,

And, obviously, I don't know the whole history,

And, sir, whatever happens..."

And, uh, I'll let you take it from here.

And, uh, one for me.

And, uh, speaking of college,

And, um...

And, um...

And, yes, certain things are harder for us.

And, you know, we haven't really been...

And?

And...

Annie was sleeping ten hours a night from infancy.

Annie, who...

Another first down for number one.

Answer the phone, woman.

Any college would be lucky to have a giant dork like you.

Anyhow, Kate says that you are great in the advice department.

Anyway, babble, babble.

Anyway, thank you so much for coming and hanging out with me today.

Anyway, um, I just wanted to say that..

Apparently, there was a mix up,

Are gonna be right here in the front. Front row.

Are gonna be shvitzing for you in that dress.

Are these the right ones?

Are those pigs in a blanket?

Are we seriously having a conversation right now

Are you all right, Maya?

Are you coming up soon?

Are you fake smoking?

Are you following me?

Are you for real right now?

Are you for real?

Are you getting a divorce?

Are you just leaving?

Are you kidding me?

Are you kidding me? Only the best seats for my best girls, right?

Are you kidding?

Are you okay?

Are you out of your mind? Coming back here, you bastard?

Are you people insane?

Are you scared to tell your mom that her Catholic son is having

Are you, uh, visiting or coming home?

As "a long time ago."

As a perfect marriage.

As close as they come.

As cute as those Afro puffs were,

As he holds the Super Bowl trophy, his dad's proud of him...

As long as she's under this roof,

As your legally adopted son?

At a very hopeless time in my life.

At all. Uh...

At braiding my sister's hair

At first, I started doing it to, uh, sort of pass the time

At least, that's what my daughter taught me.

At Manhattan General doing?

At the dollar theater, and we're gonna...

Aw, you poor things

Aw.

Awesome job, Kevin. So ins...

Ba Babe, babe, hey.

Babe, that was not part of the show. That that was a...

Babe, you okay?

Baby, I love you,

Baby, I..

Baby, stop.

Baby, there ain't nothing muddled there.

Baby, what's up?

Baby, you are the strongest person I know.

Back here.

Back to the audition

Bam, he's down again.

Banged up my leg pretty bad.

Basically, everyone.

Be a man and fix it

Be Clooney.

Bear that kind of stress

Bec, you don't know everything about me.

Because everyone here is really excited

Because he understood all the pain that that word elicits.

Because he was a little boy when he was adopted.

Because I do.

Because I don't look like that girl up there.

Because I got to go home and pack.

Because I probably would've had fun if I had stayed.

Because I'm the man who writes terrible stories day after day,

Because I've been living versions of that story

Because it feels like you're stalling,

Because it wasn't about my weight or my age,

Because it's not fair, Beth.

Because it's our job to protect that little girl,

Because my mom believed... Still believes...

Because my mother is down there.

Because once we tell the girls, there's no turning back.

Because she's a size two.

Because that's what you do, Randall.

Because we will keep coming until you do your job.

Because we're perfect, Beth.

Because you are the perfect thing.

Because you remind me a little of myself.

Because you've been apologizing to the world lately?

Because...

Because... fair warning...

Becca, I...

Bed.

Been chasing after it my entire life.

Before his sentencing, in private.

Before I can walk back into that house.

Before I can walk back into that house.

Before I understood that I was black.

Before it really starts coming down.

Before we say something that may alienate her even more.

Being her brother, I...

Ben... from the band,

Bet her feet are nastier than her hair.

Bet you can't guess which one Randall is.

Beth would disagree with that,

Beth, I gave Shauna our number.

Beth, I want to adopt a baby.

Beth's struggling with the adoption.

Between wallowing and actually having

Between your two stupidly handsome brothers

Birthday boy. Where's Sophie?

Black Manny, you know?

Boom!

Boom! He's down, folks.

Both. I don't... I don't... I don't know.

Boy, that is gross.

Brady, hey. What's up? Come on in.

Break it to me that none of the pretty ones come in my size.

Brian, good to see you. Let's break legs tonight.

Brian, I'm the king of powering through things like this.

Britney, how are you? Good to see you.

Bro, I think you need to watch your tone.

Brunette. She's a knockout.

Bullheaded.

But 37 years ago, my parents chose me,

But as much as I want you

But as soon as they left for the day,

But Beth ain't here, now, is she?

But bun in the unmarried oven

But by the end, a marker draws a line on a piece of paper.

But even funnier.

But for me, who knew you when,

But gosh, once you got going, it was awesome.

But he caught some tough breaks

But he was pretty damn close.

But he, uh...

But here's the thing.

But I always recommend

But I am sure it is not an agent

But I am your future brother in law,

But I been sleeping in my apartment,

But I can't say the perfect thing

But I didn't like the way it made me feel.

But I do

But I do know we have to get it taken care of.

But I don't need therapy because of it.

But I don't want to be them.

But I don't.

But I feel like I'm...

But I gave her my blood.

But I have to be honest with you guys,

But I hope it doesn't happen again.

But I need to fix this on my own.

But I never really understood what my blackness meant

But I put it on, and I moved forward.

But I somehow roped your father

But I swear, Rebecca, I swear I try.

But I thought about them all the time.

But I turned on the baby monitor

But I will ask one thing of you.

But I will not walk out of this room and allow you

But I woke up before we found them.

But I'm not gonna let this stupid knee

But I've gone this way for a very long time.

But if there is any part of you

But it can't be like that again.

But it was amazing.

But it's been awhile since we...

But it's court ordered.

But it's not me, okay? I was playing a part.

But let me tell you, you don't know

But no concert tonight.

But no matter who wasn't talking to who,

But none are.

But now they say that if I want to fix myself,

But now you're working full time and looking damn fine

But now, with more years,

But on that, I have to disagree with my mother.

But Randall...

But really good.

But really I'm just returning to the scene of the crime.

But she had a great backhand

But she makes it sound nice?

But she... you know, she got over it.

But since this time was a lot more serious,

But since you're here, Martina,

But that was, like, 20 years ago, right?

But the thing you need to know about us

But the whole romantic date night thing,

But then, after a while, I I started to...

But then, there are some times where it's so loud,

But there's someone here who begs to differ.

But there's this mean undertone to it, you know?

But they go to you for the Band Aid and the boo boo song.

But they run pretty deep in my house, if you know what I'm saying.

But they're gonna love it.

But things could have been very different for you.

But this is a big deal to me, you know?

But this is becoming, like...

But this recipe right here

But we can't just...

But we demoted her because she wasn't good enough

But we didn't know what kind of kids we were gonna get

But we have talked about this a lot,

But we have to rent bowling shoes, Deja.

But we made them great.

But we'd pass in the halls, and you'd always smile.

But we'll talk soon.

But we've got, like, a greenroom set up for you.

But what if they didn't turn out anything?

But what you said was wrong.

But when it comes to you and me...

But you have to know

But you may very well finish.

But you should stay.

But you stopped.

But you've made it alarmingly clear

But your father was so sure.

But your sister, she's got the same thing,

But, I mean, that doesn't have anything to do

But, like, the funnier bigger man

But, ooh, I need a drink.

But, uh, one of the things that helps me

But, uh, we got La Croix water and Wi Fi.

But, uh, yeah.

But, uh...

But, um, it's not working.

But, um...

But...

But...

By focusing on it so much.

By next week, there'll be, like, a bazillion more of 'em.

By nightfall, I'll have you back in your bunk

By repeating our names and giving her a tour.

By the way, you're gonna love this place.

Bye bye.

Bye, Deja.

Bye.

Calling to see if we wanted to renew our subscription.

Can I ask you something?

Can I borrow that? That?

Can I get you something to drink?

Can I help you?

Can I make you some breakfast?

Can I take you somewhere?

Can make a living at being a singer, so...

Can we get a picture for the yearbook?

Can we give her back?

Can you do that?

Can you do that?

Can you find Delaney for me right away...

Can you find me a different ending to your story?

Can you imagine?

Can you lift up your pant leg?

Can you please go put on a collared shirt

Can you see him?

Can't believe you were gonna throw down

Can't believe..

Can't sleep either, huh?

Can't you just feel it?

Can't you see I'm in pain?

Canceled. Mom.

Cap'n Crunch

Car bagel?

Casey adjusted the last scene.

Casey made some last minute revisions to the final scene.

Casey, I'm here to serve, okay?

Casey, it's not your fault the show is so bad.

Charlotte, it's Kevin!

Charlotte!

Charlotte?

Check that out. All right? You know what we should do?

Cheerleading is not drill team.

Cold shoulders, yelling matches...

Colleges were coming.

Come in my chambers.

Come in.

Come on in.

Come on, baby.

Come on, come on.

Come on, Deja, bag down.

Come on, don't do that. Don't do that.

Come on, Manny.

Come on, Randall.

Come on, trust me. Stand up.

Come on, you've got to give me something.

Come on! You can do better than that.

Come on.

Come on...

Come up to me every five minutes and say,

Coming

Coming out of retirement to present Kevin

Coming to check on prospective adoptive parents.

Confidence or charisma.

Congratulations.

Congratulations.

Connecting.

Considering how well she did the first time around.

Cool. Well, I will, uh... I'll see you in a few days.

Cops are gonna pull us over for for squatting.

Could be found in our file.

Could have done without the Manny in my basement

Could I have some, too?

Could you work a little faster?!

Couldn't provide for us without him.

Crap, I have to go. Listen, just...

Crazy.

Cute. So, can you turn the video back on?

D E J A. I hope.

Dad!

Dad... everything okay at work?

Dang, girl.

Dear Judge Bradley,

Definitely not Alicia Keys cool.

Deja and me are meeting her at the clink this morning

Deja, your mom might not be coming back for a while.

Deja?

Deja's doing well.

Deja's not taking the hint.

Deja's the one good thing I've done.

Despite ourselves, despite what everyone's told us,

Destroy another one of my dreams.

Did any of the other girls sing Sinead?

Did he seem off to you?

Did I ruin your birthday?

Did Shauna say why she didn't want to see her?

Did you finish your cough drop?

Did you hurt your knee?

Did you sauté the onions first?

Did you say hours?

Did you see that?!

Did you see the way she flinched, Beth?

Didn't ask for it. Just got it.

Didn't turn out so bad, though, huh?

Didn't you hear him?

Disappointed.

Disturbing.

Do anything good lately?

Do I know you from somewhere?

Do it like you mean it. From here.

Do something. Put on a pretty dress.

Do what? I'm complimenting you. I'm proud of you.

Do you even want to move out here?

Do you have something you want to say to me?

Do you have... any idea

Do you know how hard it is to find someone

Do you know how many times

Do you know how to say, "Sorry, sweetie,

Do you know how to turn off the alarm

Do you know what the... sexiest thing about you is?

Do you mind?

Do you need service, sir?

Do you not want to adopt?

Do you remember how she reacted when we told her that we

Do you remember the time

Do you think of me as I do of you, my son?

Do you think that's a good enough answer?

Do you think you could itch my whole body?

Do you understand?

Do you understand? And, hey, listen,

Do you want to know why

Do you want to make the soup, Mom?

Do you wish to adopt this child

Do you... have something...

Doctors' handwriting sure gets worse every year.
