Rosewood Lane

Ms. Blake?

I'm Detective Sabatino.

This is my partner,

Detective Briggs.

Ms. Blake,

he's been down

there a couple of days.

His blood alcohol,

Ms. Blake,

it was very high.

Gentlemen,

would you step out

for a minute, please?

Dad,

you son of a bitch,

you finally did it.

Damn you, Dad.

He kept beating me

with it on my back,

and then on my

head until it broke.

He doesn't like

himself when it happens.

I don't even want

to hear about him.

This is not about him.

This is about you.

Sonny Blake Show.

Yes, Gail. That is

his problem, not yours.

He didn't call me.

You did.

I'm not sure it's

even within his control.

Gail, what is my motto

when I hear someone tell me

their life is out of control?

There are no accidents.

I wanna hear you

say it, Gail.

But more importantly,

I want you...

No, I need you to believe it.

Okay.

Okay, stay on the line,

and we'll get

that number to you.

To all of you that we did not get

a chance to speak with tonight,

that's all the time we have as

we approach The News at Midnight.

I am Dr. Sonny Blake,

my producer is the lovely

Ms. Paula Crenshaw.

Our own silverback male,

Glenn Forrester,

is up next with the news

I will see you Monday night,

and have a great,

great weekend.

Dr. Sonny Blake,

noted psychologist and author,

can be heard every

Monday through Friday

from 8:
00 p.m.

to midnight here on Talk Line.

Nice job.

Thank you.

So, you gonna let me take you out

for one last fling?

I can't.

I have to get up early,

and meet Barrett

and the moving van.

Did you say "Barrett"?

Barrett?

He called me

yesterday, okay?

Just said he missed me

and wanted to see me.

And you talked to him?

He's just helping

me with the move.

This is the guy

who you said should have his

breeder's license revoked?

Just stop.

But you were hating Barrett,

not the city.

And now you're moving out of the city

and bringing Barrett with you?

Sonny, stop.

What are you doing?

I wish I knew.

Okay, you sure I can't convince you

to go grab a late one?

Come on.

We can talk all about it.

I don't want to

talk about it.

What kind of late one?

I thought you were getting serious

about those meetings.

Did you just try and throw

a 12-step guilt trip at me

so I'd stop

talking about Barrett?

Pretty soon you're gonna be

knocking on my door,

begging to come hang out in the burbs

and have a barbecue.

And you're gonna be

pining for life in the city

without the boyfriend

that hit on your best friend.

Your lesbian best friend.

That's how dumb he is.

Hey, I passed the moving van

on the highway.

So, we got to get

that hallway cleared.

Give me that one.

Here.

Nugget! Nugget, you stop that

and get back here.

Come here.

What are you doing?

Hello. Hi.

I'm your new neighbor.

Sonny Blake.

You related to Jack?

He was my dad.

It's been empty

for over a year.

Yeah, well,

I had it on the market,

but I think it might be easier to sell

an elephant these days.

He never mentioned

a daughter.

Oh, Jesus.

Did I just say that?

We had our problems.

Wasn't a very

happy man, your dad.

No, I can't remember

a time when he was.

Oh, I guess you know I'm

having a pool installed.

I've stopped

work though, so it

should give you some peace.

What's the matter?

I wouldn't subscribe to the paper

if I were you.

Why?

You don't want to have anything to do

with that one.

You kept it.

Surprised.

I'm glad.

How about we go to

a ball game this Saturday?

Got some great tickets.

From a client?

Isn't that a bribe or something?

Where do you

want these empties?

Um... Just down in the cellar.
