(soft upbeat music)
- Sophie, hey!
- Hi!
- Where have you been?
I have a few follow-up questions for our interview.
- Sorry, I've been busy with stuff.
- Well, my sources tell me that you signed up
for the teen volunteer program?
- I wouldn't exactly say signed up. (chuckles)
- Hey, I get it.
- You know, my parents put pressure on me too.
- Yeah.
- My dad was the editor of his high school paper, so...
- Oh.
Yeah. I just wanted to start out fresh,
and now I'm following in her footsteps, so...yeah.
- Well, your mom was a big shot doctor
in New York, right?
- Yeah, my dad was, too.
- Ah.
- Mm-hmm.
- And your parents, they're divorced, or...?
- No... (sighs)
I mean, not really.
My dad is in Africa and he's doing humanitarian work.
Like, you know, getting kids vaccines, and surgeries,
and all of that.
He's supposed to come back this summer.
I don't know.
They wanted him to stay longer,
or I guess he wanted to stay longer.
I don't know.
- No, no.
I'm sure he really misses you.
- Yeah, maybe.
But this is a great fresh start.
All of our cousins live here, and there was a job opening.
so it's just like...we're here! Attaway, USA.
(Michael laughs)
- I know it's not New York, but, you know...
(Michael and Sophie laugh)
You're a triplet, so you already have like
two built in friends already.
- Honestly, we're not even really that close.
It's just like we have the same mom and dad. (laughs)
- Well, I mean, I know that you at least
have one big fan here.
- Aw.
- And once I publish this interview,
I think you'll have a lot more.
- Okay! Okay.
I promise we'll finish the interview,
but...I gotta go.
(soft upbeat music)
(somber music)
(Elena and Javier laughing)
- It was mostly good news today.
Dr. Anderson said that my scans are looking better
and they might be able to release me soon.
- That's amazing.
- Mm-hmm.
- We miss you at home. And at work.
(phone beeps)
And on that note, I've gotta go.
- Heading to the station, mijo?
- Yeah, I'm tracking down a lead on that hit and run.
Still no suspects.
- You're an Aguilar,
we always get our bad guy.
- Always, Mama.
(somber music)
- Hey, do me a favor, will you?
Keep an eye on Cody for me.
- Why?
- He has a hearing coming up.
If he's getting into any trouble,
I need to know about it.
So, stay close.
- You got it.
(somber music)
- Hey, you wanted to see me, Dr. A?
- Yes. I just had a very interesting phone call.
With Ruth Fletcher.
- Oh, I'm not sure what that...
- Did you visit her at her dorm?
- I mean, I did, yes,
but she left all her pamphlets and didn't
make a follow up appointment,
so I was just trying to --
- Bianca, I know your heart was in the right place,
but that is inappropriate.
You're lucky she was calling
to set up an ultrasound appointment
instead of filing a complaint.
- She took my advice?
- Yes, she did.
But that does not mean you are off the hook.
While you were out on your little excursion,
your fellow volunteers were still on duty.
So, you will be working the fundraiser this week
instead of attending it.
Understood?
I think you can test him now.
(dramatic music)
- Yeah, thanks for getting me stuck on snack duty
every afternoon for the rest of the school year.
- I know.
I'm sorry, I couldn't think of anything else to say.
Besides, it's the perfect cover.
I mean, my treatments are after school.
You're here after school.
It all checks out.
(upbeat music)
Come on, Soph.
I have cancer.
(Sophie laughs)
- Oh my god.
Okay, that's emotional blackmail!
- It's not like we're not already friends.
This is just a bonus.
- Okay.
Fine.
(Lydia giggling)
I'm only doing this 'cause I'm your friend.
(upbeat music)
- I had such a good time the other day.
- Yeah, me too.
Hey, I guess first impressions aren't always correct, right?
(Allie laughs)
- You're so funny, Cody.
That's one of my favorite things about you.
So, what are you thinking for our next date?
- Next date?
Hey, Allie, listen.
(Bianca crying)
Oh, hey, are you okay?
- I'm fine.
- Yeah?
- What's wrong with you, Bianca?
- Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt.
(dramatic music)
- Aren't you her best friend?
- Yeah.
So I know how emotional she is.
Trust me, she does this all the time.
She'll get over it.
- Allie.
- Yeah?
(Cody sighs)
- Nevermind.
(dramatic music)
(door slams)
(upbeat music)
- Wow, today's full of surprises.
- How so?
- My mom got really good news today,
and now you're helping me?
- Well, just don't get used to it.
(upbeat music)
Your mom, it was cancer, right?
Is she like cured now, or whatever?
- No, but she's doing a lot better,
and she might even get released soon, so.
- That is good news.
- Are you okay?
- Yeah. Yeah.
Don't worry about it.
(upbeat music)
- You gonna tell me why you were crying, Bianca?
Cody and I were having a major moment.
- I just wanna be alone.
Okay?
(somber music)
(Bianca sniffles)
I got into trouble with Dr. Anderson
for giving Ruth her prenatal pamphlets.
- Of course you did.
If I'd known you were gonna be such a troublemaker,
I never would've brought you along.
- What do you mean, "brought me along?"
- Like I always do.
It's like I always have to think for both of us.
- That's not true and you know it.
- Isn't it though?
(suspenseful music)
Ever since the third grade when I had to switch us
from theater to art class
because you couldn't remember your lines.
- No, we had to stop
because your mom said you couldn't do it anymore.
(Allie sighs)
- News flash, Bianca.
I lied.
We had to switch because you weren't good
and I didn't want you to be embarrassed,
but I'm sick of changing everything in my life for you.
It's not fair.
I know what I want,
and I don't need you getting in the way of it.
I'm going to be on Dr. Time,
and I'm going to homecoming with Cody.
(Allie sighs)
(dramatic music)
- So... (sighs)
how are you feeling after your PT session?
- Like I just got hit by a car.
- Sorry, that's probably a stupid question.
I, I'm not really sure what I'm supposed to be doing.
It's my first day here,
and I'm not very good at talking to patients yet.
- Are you sure you even want be here?
- Honestly, no.
I didn't even really sign up.
- Then why did you?
- Because of Ly-, my friend,
my friend from New York,
you wouldn't know her,
she doesn't live here,
but she has cancer, (sighs)
so I'm just doing this for her.
To share the pain.
- That's really nice of you,
but you shouldn't be doing this for other people.
- Well, I'm not.
Not totally.
I just...I like being here.
I like helping people.
I guess I'm not used to all the socializing.
Back home I didn't have many friends.
- Just relax.
Your company is more of a comfort than you know.
And that's enough.
- Well, I've gotta get back and check in with some patients,
but, if you don't mind, maybe I can come and visit you again
after your next PT session?
- I like that.
- Hey, Mom.
No, I can't ride home with Allie today.
Yeah, I'll be waiting for you outside.
I love you too.
Bye.
- Hey.
Is the coast finally clear?
(Bianca sighs)
- Very funny.
Allie and I got into a little disagreement,
but it's no big deal.
- Hey, well, if there's ever anything you wanna talk about,
you can always tell me.
- Thanks, Cody.

- [Sophie] Next time, on "Attaway General."
- Did I do something to make you mad?
- No, sorry, it's just my stupid brother.
- You didn't answer any of my texts.
- I deleted them.
We don't need to talk about it.
- Would you...maybe wanna go to the fundraiser with me?
- No.
