Recap

Jill has just been in an accident and is semiconscious. She hears voices, some speaking German. She sees people with flashlights and smells cigarette smoke, but the details are fuzzy. Then paramedics arrive and see the blood everywhere, blood from Boris and Marisa's baby that she was transporting to a medical facility for storage. They intibate both Jill and the driver Natan and transport them to Hamptons Heritage hospital...

Episode Quotes
Ted: The Palm Beach police department may not know that you're past curfew, but the bureau of prisons certainly will. Edward let's go back to the house.
Eddie: Look I only need a few more minutes. If Shaw is out here, I need to be out here.
Ted: You break the rules, you do so at your own peril!

Evan: I look forward to getting to know my long lost grandfather.
Ted: It's not my fault that I'm long lost!

Hank: Ted just agreed to it, after not seeing him (Eddie) for four decades?
Evan: No, he wanted something in return.
Hank: What?
Evan: He wanted to meet his grandsons.
Hank: And a deal was made.

Evan: So, the Roths do pretty well for themselves.
Ted: Too bad you're a Lawson.

Eddie: I've been on my own so long, I thought I didn't need anybody. I thought I could just put this all back together myself.
Hank: Put what back together?
Eddie: Everything, my life, then things with Dad, then with all of us. Oh, I had a plan. Sometimes I am amazed at how complicated I make things for myself.

Ted: So now I'm telling you both as your sponsor and as your father, you'd better not walk off this property.
Eddie: That's exactly what I'm gonna to do.
Ted: In that case, I won't be at your parole hearing. Your choice.

Eddie: Okay, there it is, there it is, the reason I haven't spoken to this man for forty years!
Ted: Oh, no no no no. It's because of that woman you knocked up and then eloped with. She was after my money, and she had you right where she wanted you.

Eddie: (to Shaw) I know you're scared about facing Gina, and you want to know how? Because I made all the same mistakes. I hid from my boys 'cause I didn't know if I could make it right, I didn't even try to make it right.
Eddie: (to Hank) I was selfish Hank. I could not watch her die, I couldn't make her better, and I couldn't make it okay for my boys. So I ran away. It didn't even dawn on me that you would forgive me. God knows I won't forgive myself.

Ted: It's about time you got here. Edward I swear, when are you going to learn to be punctual?
Eddie: You're here!
Ted: Nothing gets by you.



Episode Goofs
After Jill arrives at Hamptons Heritage via ambulance, the paramedics and emergency room staff wheel the gurney by the maternity ward, an extremely unlikely layout for a modern hospital.



Cultural References
Evan: Well, it definitely beats the early bid special at the Olive Garden.

The Olive Garden is an Italian cuisine restaurant chain in the United States. It does not, in fact, have an early bird special.



Episode References
Evan: Florida certainly has been full of surprises.
Hank: A grandpa we didn't know was alive, Dad's new millionaire friend...
Evan: Oh, the fact that you don't like Paige, that was new.

In episode 3x04 The Shaw/Hank Redemption, Evan tells Hank he is going to propose to Paige and Hank surprises him by being less than enthusiastic.
