00:41:22,167 --> 00:41:24,868
She didn't even come back
to say good-bye.
1045
00:41:24,903 --> 00:41:28,138
She just packed up her things.
1046
00:41:28,173 --> 00:41:32,042
- Harvey...
- They're all leaving, Donna.
1047
00:41:32,077 --> 00:41:33,810
First Jessica, now Mike.
1048
00:41:36,415 --> 00:41:39,716
They're family.
1049
00:41:39,751 --> 00:41:41,718
And family's not supposed to...
1050
00:41:46,258 --> 00:41:48,491
Harvey, I've always stayed
away from a certain subject
1051
00:41:48,527 --> 00:41:51,728
with you, but I can't anymore.
1052
00:41:51,763 --> 00:41:55,465
You always talk like
we're your only family.
1053
00:41:55,500 --> 00:41:56,600
We're not.
1054
00:41:58,370 --> 00:41:59,970
You have another one,
1055
00:42:00,005 --> 00:42:01,671
and you need to reconcile
with them.
1056
00:42:04,109 --> 00:42:07,077
- Donna, I am not gonna--
- Enough is enough.
1057
00:42:07,112 --> 00:42:10,680
You need to go make things right
with your mother.
1058
00:42:10,716 --> 00:42:13,283
Because as long as you keep her
at arm's length,
1059
00:42:13,318 --> 00:42:16,252
you're gonna keep looking to us
to fill that void.
1060
00:42:16,288 --> 00:42:19,856
And I'm not sure
that any of us can.
1061
00:42:19,891 --> 00:42:22,459
Please?
1062
00:42:22,494 --> 00:42:23,793
Go see her.
1063
00:42:30,775 --> 00:42:37,575
