And there's nothing
you can do about it, anyway.
- Dad? What are you doing?
- I don't want to talk about it.

- Does Lynette know you're out here?
- Oh, yeah. She knows.

- Can you drive me to the airport?
- Wait here.

- Lynette?
- Yeah?

Why is my Dad sitting out on the curb?

Because I kicked him out of the house.

I... I see. You wanna tell me why?

Hold on. I made you a drink.

Oh, God, what did he do?

Yesterday I came home and
I walked in on your dad with a woman.

He's having an affair.
I am so, so sorry.

- God...
- I know. I know. Are you OK?

Yeah. Um, I should go talk to him.

- That's it?
- What?

I just expected a bigger reaction.
I've got knots in my stomach.

I never mentioned this because
I knew how you'd react. But, um...

I'm not that surprised by this.

My father's
been having affairs for years.

- You knew about this?
- Yeah. Kinda. Yeah.

It was mostly in the past.
I didn't know that he was still at it.

I figured he was too old.
In some strange way, I'm impressed.

Impressed? Impressed? I...

Tom, don't tell me
you're all right with this.

I'm not. He should never
have brought her here.

He shouldn't have been with her at all!

I know.
But, you know, that's who he is.

It's been going on for years.
My mom's made peace with it.

- I seriously doubt that.
- There's no point in this.

I'm gonna bring my father back
and put him in his room.

- And we can all cool off.
- He is not coming back in this house.

- Yes, he is.
- No, he's not.

He is my father, this is my house.
You can't tell me what to do.

I say we kick the door down.

Yeah, Dad, you do that.
Let me know how that works out for you.

Hi, um...

I don't know if I have the right
address. Does John Rowland live here?

I'm really glad you came by.
I was gonna call you again tomorrow.

Uh, yeah. I'm sorry
I haven't returned any of your calls.

It's OK. I'm just happy to see you.
I heard about Mr. Solis.

- It sucks you had to take a job.
- Well, I'll survive.

Come here.

Oh...

Oh, no... John...
I didn't come here for that.

What's wrong?

You're going into gardening full time.
What happened to college?

- I decided not to go.
- Why?

Well, an opportunity
has presented itself,

and for me to take advantage of it,
I need to start making money.

John, what opportunity
is more important than college?

For the longest time, the only thing
I had to offer you was my heart.

Mr. Solis gave you security
and I couldn't compete.

But now he can't offer you that.
I can.

My business is taking off. I can
take care of you. We can be together.

Mrs. Solis,

will you marry me?

Why would you
want to chaperone the dance?

Mrs. Van De Kamp needed volunteers.
She begged me.

You're so transparent.

Anyway, you won't even know I'm there.

Well, not too much.

- You know you can tell me anything.
- Yeah, Mom.

So if you had a problem, or some sort
of secret was weighing on you...?

Of course. I tell you everything.

I can't believe
you're just uprooting us like this.

We need a fresh start.

Here.
You wanna get it about like this.

So many bad things
have happened around here

and finally I have someone I can talk to
and you want to take that away.
