Fallout

It's morning at the Abbott House. Ephram, who has slept on their couch, is awakened by both his cell phone and Patch Abbott's cheerful yammering. Amy comes downstairs and apologizes to Ephram about her dad being the "definition of a morning person." She asks if he slept okay, and says he can stay as long as he wants. Patch says he's not sure that's such a good idea -- he spoke with Treat the night before, and Ephram's father is very concerned. Ephram suggests they file that under "too little, too late." Patch says he promised he'd say something. Ephram says it's fine, he's not staying long anyway, and thanks Patch for letting him crash. Patch tells Ephram he's welcome, and adds, "Should anyone care for a tofu scramble, I'll be in the kitchen." Amy asks her weirdo boyfriend how he really is, and Ephram claims to be not just a wreck, but a tired wreck, and says he can't stop thinking about how Madison must have told Treat she was pregnant. He says three days ago he was in New York, and his life was perfect, but things were obviously going way too well. He tells Amy she's the only person he can trust right now. Amy says she just wants to help, but doesn't really know what to do. Ephram says he has to figure it out on his own. Amy leans her head on his shoulder and asks what he's going to do. Ephram: "I don't know. But I've got to do something." Oh, the DRAMA. Credits.

When we come back, Nina's having coffee with Treat. She's all, "So all this happened a year ago, and now you're like, 'Hi let's have coffee my son got his girlfriend pregnant and he thinks I ruined his life.' Huh." Treat says he should have told her sooner. Nina says, to be honest, she's a little grateful to have been out of the loop on this one, but it must have been awful for Treat to carry this all around by himself. Treat says it was, but he's fine now; he could wallow in self-pity, but what would be the point? Nina: "Oh, you don't need a point to wallow. That's the beauty of the wallow." Heh. Treat says he spent way too much time worrying about Ephram last year, and now he wants to refocus by catching up on what's going on in Delia's life. He also wants to catch up with Nina, and asks her if they can have dinner. Nina says she can't, as it's "Movie Night with Jake and Sam." They make a plan for the night, but then Nina remembers that Dimples got them concert tickets. Treat says he had no idea that she and Dimples had gotten that serious. Nina says they've just been hanging out a lot, but it's no big deal. Uh-huh. She leaves for work. Treat drinks his coffee alone, alone, alone.

Hey, Hannah's back! Bright gets her bags out of the back of his truck while Hannah thanks him again for the ride. Bright tells her if she says "thank you" or "sorry" again he's going to have to kill himself. Hannah: "Sorry. Sorry." As Bright helps her unpack, Hannah tells him how weird it was being home -- her mom cried when she left, and she didn't even do that the first time -- and that it feels like a whole other life she left behind. Bright jokes that it looks like she brought most of it back, and goes to work reading her fourth-grade diary: "Dear Diary, I think I, like, love, Robbie Schmitzer. He has smooth muscles and alabaster skin." Heeee. Bright can't believe Hannah used words like "alabaster" in fourth grade. Hannah says she did find one thing in there, and grabs the diary from Bright. She reads, "Dear Diary, I found out today that my dad is sick. If God will make him better, I promise to eat all of my vegetables." Aw. Hannah says she didn't know anything about medicine or science when she wrote that; she really believed God could cure something like Huntington's, if she just asked. Bright says he thinks that's why people pray: for insurance, just in case it works. Hannah gets this bright-idea look on her face, and says maybe God did answer her prayers, and she just didn't realize it because it didn't come in the form she was expecting. "I was too late on my dad, but...maybe God saved me instead!" Bright is all, "Hmm. Maybe? But I think your test was negative because you didn't have the gene." Hannah: "Maybe, but just in case? I owe God some serious vegetables."
