Previously on Family Law.

No, this looks good. I want you.

I mean, when I want to work with you.

I want to work with you, too. Seriously, watching you navigate your abusive ex

while she stalked you on air solidified your badassery.

Oh, my God. You look like a tiny Benjamin Button. That's her baby.

Troy is young. He's tech savvy.

He also gets paid half what I do. I'm not an idiot. If I resign, I don't get a

severance package.

And I expect a great...

I did it. I had my flat face.

Harry Hudson, will you marry me? I would love nothing more than to marry you.

Your father and I have something to tell you.

You're getting married.

How did you know?

Intuition.

Plus, there's that giant disco ball on your hand.

Well, go on, assail us with your disapproval.

You're going to do what you're going to do.

That's all you have to say?

I'm resigned.

So, when's the big day?

Who's invited?

The details will get sorted.

You mean Joanne will sort them and you'll say yes?

Please don't share this news with your siblings.

I'd like them to hear it from me.

Yeah, because I'm just bursting to tell them.

Well, our sarcastic daughter raises a good point.

How long do you want our list to be? Just families?

Other than the children, I don't have much family to invite.

Well, there's your brother.

I haven't spoken to William in years.

Well, this could give you a chance to mend things.

There is nothing to mend.

Well, just one more month.

So that's it. Your last day.

Do you have to retire? You're still in your prime.

I'll fix it.

It won't be the same.

Who'll send reminders when it's someone's birthday?

Who'll fill the candy bowl?

You can always fill it up yourself.

Tastes better when you fill it.

Things will run just fine without me.

Peterson's office manager seems perfectly capable.

He'll visit tomorrow to get a lay of the land. I hope that won't be awkward for

you. Why would that be awkward?

Oh, right. You two had... Morning, Mrs. Fenton. Morning, Winston.

Good energy.

Dad called me on my way in.

So you know.

The guy who says clients are diluted for remarrying an ex is remarrying his ex.

How are you taking it?

Well, they're more annoying when they're not together, so net positive.

That means Joanna will be my stepmom.

Which means you'll be my half -brother and my stepbrother.

Dad, that's wonderful news. I'm so relieved.

I love Joanne. She makes you happy. That's all I want.

Mom would want that, too.

I have my own news.

I'm looking for new office space.

I've seen some affordable places.

One is shared with other therapists.

You're willing to give up prime real estate for a shared space?

Well, real estate you pay for. Which I'm happy to do.

I can't have my dad pay my rent forever.

I need to prove to myself that I can do this on my own.

When I quit my first job to start my own firm, it was daunting.

It was also the best decision of my life.

Thanks for waiting, Mr. Cook.

Please, Kenneth, it's fine.

Like the courtyard?

Bees are pollinating.

Bees with malefera, the most common species.

I didn't know that.

How can I help you, Kenneth?

My late father set up a trust fund for me.

Every few years, the bank's trustee gives me a drawdown as long as I meet

stipulations. Like what? I got the first $30 ,000 when I turned 21, but only if

I graduated from college.

I got the next drawdown when I turned 25, but only if I worked at my father's

office. He made that a stipulation.

He was pretty controlling.

I can relate.

I was supposed to get the next drawdown when I turned 35 last month, 100 ,000,

but they'll only give me the money as long as I'm in a stable monogamous

relationship. And you're not in a relationship?

No, I am.

Um...

Burn it with me. Would you like to meet her?

Vanessa. Hello. Nice to meet you.

You can't prove it. Oh, oh. You got nothing legit.

Oh, oh. The glove don't fit. Oh, oh.

You got it with quit. Oh.

So you're dating a doll.

We call them synthetic partners.

We, idolaters.

There are more of you?

Indeed.

It's Vanessa's response system. She's... Programmed to engage in conversation.

Right, Vanessa?

Right, honey. Speaking of honey, did you know bees need two million flowers to

make one pound of honey?

She likes bees.

You have that in common.

You do know that she's not real. I know she's not a person.

But I love her like one.

It's just he says that this doesn't count as a loving relationship.

You want me to prove it does?

I'm in love.

That should be enough.

Well said. You go, Kenneth.

She's a sex doll.

Sounds like this guy just programmed her to say whatever he wants. It's not a

relationship.

Playtime. A shitty appeal of an AI girlfriend.

Fewer opinions, fewer arguments.

Fewer opinions.

Oh, you're definitely marrying the wrong woman.

I like a strong woman with a mind of her own.

Roz always challenges me.

To be fair, that's not hard. I feel for Kenneth.

More and more people are feeling lonely and isolated.

His way of coping might be unconventional, but if it makes him feel

Eleanor's mother is in a nursing home. The residents interact with care robots.

Are they dating the robots?

Not as far as I know, but it's still companionship. Come on, it's weird.

There's a man who carries his dog around like a baby and talks to him in that

ridiculous voice.

Ignore him, Criggy Wiggy.

Much as I'd love to represent Kenneth, I've got a lot on my plate right now, so

I'm going to need you to run with this case.

Make me.

You and your husband drew up this separation agreement?

We didn't think we needed lawyers.

But there's one term we can't agree on.

What's replica?

Two years ago, our daughter Libby drowned in our pool.

Jessica, I'm so sorry.

I thought we were grieving together.

Then he hired a company to make a replica of our daughter.

I'm afraid I don't understand.

Quantum Avatar.

They're an AI company. They make digital copies of people using their photos and

voice recordings.

One day, Emil handed me a pair of VR goggles and asked me to look through

And there was Libby.

A virtual entity that looks and talks just like our daughter.

I can't bear to look at it, but Emil spends hours interacting with it.

You want to delete it.

Is there any harm in letting Emil have this for himself?

I don't want that thing out there in the world. It's beyond morbid. It's

disrespectful to Libby's memory.

I could try to get you ownership of the digital assets.

If you own the replica, you can decide what happens to it.

But, before we go that route, I suggest we bring in Emile.

Promise me you're going to call off this wedding. Run. Don't walk from that

altar. Are you sure, Dr. Stinson?

I'm excited for you.

You've got this, Jasmine.

Well, that's all for today. And remember, be kind to yourselves.

Nice job.

The internet just got another soundbite.

Please don't share with me. I still can't stand listening to my own voice.

What are you talking about? You sound great.

Any plans tonight?

I've got a sack of client notes to review.

You? Some friends invited me to this really big party, so I think I'll stay

order a cheeseburger.

Put on Notting Hill, and it sounds like the perfect night.

It's more of a date movie, and alas, I am woefully single.

You were reaching for the door handle, weren't you? Yep.

This case is unwinnable. How can I argue he's in a relationship when Vanessa

isn't real?

Neither was Bruce Wayne, yet 12 -year -old me still wanted to marry him. Yeah,

but you didn't actually think he was real.

Dating a doll is weird, but maybe your client thinks it's his only option.

Join an app.

Meet a nice girl who's waterproof.

People are intimidating.

Why do you think I'm in the gaming world?

Some of us are more comfortable with fictional characters.

You seem pretty comfortable approaching a total stranger at the bar.

Do one thing a week outside of your comfort zone.

Tip seven from an introvert's guide to being charming.

That was your weekly challenge?

You told me that was bad.

I lied.

Did your book have a list of cheesy pickup lines?

Well, I'm not the one who fell for it.

It's a miracle. Both Abigail and Sophia are out of the house.

Why don't I slip out of this suit and not into those pajamas that Abigail

me?

Actually, you may want to hold off on that.

Oh, could you answer that?

Harrison.

Who's in?

Why did you do this?

Because he's your brother, and whatever happened between the two of you, it's

time to clear the air. Nothing happened. We drifted apart naturally.

I stopped calling him, he did the same, and we both realized we liked it better

that way.

If that's true, why is he here?

How's Caroline?

Living her best life in Belize with her third husband.

We broke it off years ago.

I'm sorry to hear that. How did Cameron take it?

He took his mother's side.

For what it's worth, until recently, my eldest wanted nothing to do with me.

Now, we're working together, and it's quite pleasant, mostly.

How long has it been since we last spoke?

Father's funeral.

That reminds me.

I was going through the attic the other day.

Found these.

Brings back memories, doesn't it?

Certainly does.

Dad used to make us go around whenever we got into an argument.

What was it he always said?

If it matters so much to you two, fight for it.

And sometimes in life, you gotta kick it on the chin.

I'm glad you ain't called.

It's been far too long.

So you hit your boss without getting her consent?

I don't know how I'm going to face her tomorrow.

Yeah, you should quit the show.

Really? No.

It might be weird for a while, but give it time. It'll blow over.

I gotta say, there's something hilarious about a therapist misreading social

cues. There was a vibe, or I thought there was.

Sounds like someone has a crush.

How perceptive of you. Maybe you should have your own radio show.

Yeah, get me in touch with Robin.

Tell her I promised not to sexually harass her.

We are looking particularly dashing.

Winston's about to woo a certain office manager.

I gave him my number at the retreat, and he's only texted me twice.

It's like communicating with a straight guy, which just makes me like him more.

But we won't unpack that.

Troy. Nice to see you again. Thanks for having me. I'm super excited to start

the tour.

Oh, first stop, the kitchen.

Can I fix you a tea or coffee?

Tea sounds lovely.

Hey.

What's up?

Oh.

Yep.

Interesting. Shut up.

The trust stipulates my client needs to be in a long -term relationship.

He has been in one for three years.

With a doll.

The correct term is synthetic partner.

Whatever you call it, it doesn't qualify.

The late Mr. Cook's intention behind the trust is clear. Every stipulation was a

nudge for Kenneth to foster relationships. The trustee will not

drawdown until Kenneth can prove that he is in a stable, monogamous relationship

with a human.

May I be excused?

You may.

Great, I think you just made my client cry. Look, I'm not judging. I get why

he'd choose a doll.

Body stays tight, no PMS, programmed to say whatever you want.

You think Vanessa has a sister?

Why are we friends?

This is my scheduling system.

Yellow for birthdays, green for holidays.

Would you look at that handwriting?

Who says cursor's dead?

We've covered HR, inventory, workstations, security.

I could show you where we keep the sanitation waste for the door handles.

You know, I won't take up more of your time. But this was a lot of fun. Thanks,

Jerry. You're most welcome.

So, did he ask you out?

Does this look like the face of someone who just got asked out?

It's Troy.

He wants to go out for dinner.

Hi, I'm Libby.

Can we go to the quack today?

I want to see the ducklings.

What's the quack?

It's Libby's nickname for her favorite park.

There's a duck pond.

How does the AI know that?

I sent quantum avatar photo and video files of our daughter.

Create the most accurate replica.

So those digital assets belong to both parties.

My client wants ownership of the replica as well as an order prohibiting anyone

from making another avatar.

I won't let you destroy it.

My client's not forcing anyone to interact with it.

What's the harm if this is his private way of grieving?

Jessica should have had a say as to whether the replica was created in the

place. Please.

Just let me keep this part of Libby.

That thing isn't Libby.

Why would you do this?

I got it so that we would have something to remember her by.

No. You did it to hurt me.

Hurt you?

Why would I do that?

To remind me that it was my fault.

That I'm the one that took my eyes off her. That I'm the one that left the pool

gate open.

Jessica, I have never blamed you for what happened.

Every time I see that thing, it's like a knife to my...

I need you to research Quantum Avatar.

Yeah, I've heard of them. They do artificial intelligence.

The firm's not about to replace everyone with AI.

Right?

Start with Quantum Avatar's policies on IP.

If I'm satisfied with what you found, your job is secure.

For now.

Your case sounds emotionally draining.

Here's a thought. We are not swapping cases.

But they're basically the same. People using AI to fill a void.

I've heard they're not at all the same. This replica is modeled after a real

little girl whose parents are grieving.

While your client's doll is AI with boobs.

Part of me gets why O 'Neal had the avatar made, but I think he's having

letting go.

Grief isn't the same for everyone.

When my mom died, I used to look for relics of her everywhere.

I'd hide in her closet because it still smelled like her.

I used to listen to your mother's greeting on our answering machine.

When you and mom messed up?

Always made me laugh.

Hi, hi.

What brings you two here?

William wanted to see the firm.

And my nieces and nephew.

Remember your Uncle Bill?

Sure, I remember. You bought me that toy drum set.

You got me the stuffed animal.

The one that repeated everything you said in the Chipmunk Boys?

Yep. Squeaky Selma. That toy was designed to drive me nuts. Why do you

bought it?

And you have no idea who I am.

Sorry. Don't be. You were in diapers the last time I saw you. Do you still live

in Montreal?

No. I've been in Victoria for years.

Nice setup, Harrison.

Beats the shoebox I started out in.

Higher up, too. Glad to see you got over your fear of heights.

You were afraid of heights? Terrified.

One time, a dog chased him up a tree.

Harrison was too afraid to climb down. A firefighter had to retrieve him like a

scared kitten.

The height wasn't the concern. It was the rabid dog.

Oh, you mean the neighbor's toy poodle?

Before I forget, You all are invited to my house for dinner tomorrow night.

Sounds like fun.

Danny, you should bring Jude.

I'd like to meet the mother of my future grandchild.

I'll see if she's free. Let me see your office, Harrison.

Of course.

Ooh.

I forgot Dad even had a brother. Why am I just meeting him now? Extra weird,

considering he's been in Victoria all this time.

Gotta fly.

I have to see a man about a doll.

Have fun with Barbie and Kenneth.

Daniel, over here.

You brought Vanessa.

Why? I kept winking last night, so I took her to have her hardware checked.

How do you feel, Vanessa?

Never better, Kenny.

Could have left her in the car.

Someone could kidnap her.

Mr. Kroll and I kept talking after you left.

The trustee might authorize the drawdown if you declare you're at least open to

dating a person.

A real one.

Oh, I'm not into polyamory. I'm very traditional.

Nothing about this is traditional.

Try to look at it from the other side.

You have to admit this relationship is a little... You don't need to approve of

our relationship. You just need to represent me.

Excuse me. I'm going to use the facilities. Please watch her.

No, don't.

Wait.

Not mine.

So the whole coffee shop is staring and he's not even phased.

Like how you're phased.

People took pictures. Someone call me a perv.

I have a client in 10. What do you need?

I need to prove Kenneth's relationship with Vanessa meets the same requirements

as if she were real.

Can you talk to him, please?

You want me to prove your client is in a stable, monogamous relationship with a

doll?

Consider it more fodder for your radio show.

Counting the days till our kids get home from Europe?

Oh, yeah.

It'll be insufferable, though, don't you think?

I bet good money one of them pulls a Madonna and returns home with a fake

accent.

My real estate agent has interesting taste. Can I tempt you with a bag of

pickled flavored popcorn?

Uh, generous, but I'll pass.

How about this?

A token of my gratitude for not falling through these floors.

Here's a nice bottle of wine.

You sure you don't want it?

I can't.

I'm an alcoholic.

I've been sober almost two years.

Oh, okay, well, yeah, sure, I'll take it. Thanks.

There's a family dinner tomorrow and you're invited if you're interested.

Sure. I'd like to see what other weird family traits are coming down the line.

So, how's the doll cave?

It would be easier if my client wasn't dating a doll.

Well, I put more blame on his dead dad. I mean, he's the one bribing his son

into being in a relationship.

Maybe he didn't want him to end up alone.

Sounds like my parents.

All they ever want to do is pressure me to find a husband.

Meanwhile, they can't stand being in the same room together.

Some people would rather be married than happy.

Take your point.

My mom left my dad and she never looked back.

And then there's us.

We're single and happy and well -adjusted.

At least I am.

What do you think I should wear

tonight? Well, you know what they say.

Can't go wrong with a bolo tie.

No one says that.

My mom says that.

Why are you two always huddled here gossiping? Does this look like a slumber

party?

Someone's in a mood.

Is this about William? Because you said you'd give him a fair shot.

I am.

But he is determined to belittle me. Every story he shares is another jab.

Maybe that's just his way of connecting. I don't know how I can tolerate another

two nights of this.

Have a little compassion.

His wife left him. He's estranged from his son.

You're his only family.

Lucky me.

When I was a kid, a bumblebee flew into our house.

His wing was damaged, so I put him in a terrarium.

I fed him sugar water every day until he got better. Then I let him go back to

his hive.

You seem passionate about bees.

I like the way they communicate.

When bees want something, they dance.

Release pheromones. Their social bonds come so easily.

What's your experience like meeting people?

I still get nervous around my co -workers.

But Vanessa helps.

Sometimes she and I come up with icebreakers. They work too. People

sit with them at lunch. And there's this nature club at the community center. I

never would have joined unless Vanessa hyped me up.

I know she's programmed.

To be supportive, but... When Vanessa says that she believes in me...

I believe in me.

A little bit.

At the very least, Kenneth perceives himself to be in a relationship.

Would you say it's healthy?

It's complicated.

Kenneth's been hurt by people, so he's clinging to something that makes him

safe. Yannick will argue she's just distracting him from meeting real

Actually, Vanessa seems to be helping him meet new people. She gives him the

confidence to come out of his shell. I can't say whether this qualifies as a

stable monogamous relationship, but having Vanessa in his life encourages

make friends.

Just not a girlfriend.

I looked into Quantum Avatar's license and release agreement.

Check out this clause.

We retain the right to reproduce and sell protected material to third

So I did some more digging and found a press release.

Turns out Quantum Avatar partnered with another company.

What company?

It's a food manufacturing company.

Hello, when I'm hungry, my mom knows just what to make me.

Did our daughter end up in a commercial?

Quantum Avatar owns the intellectual rights of all AI it generates, meaning

can use the AI however they want, even sell it to third parties like Minnie.

So everything I've ever shared about Lippy belonged to them. They can just

our daughter's memory?

We can fight this.

We'll seek an injunction to pull Lippy's image from the Minnie's ad campaign.

And there's an excellent chance they'll comply. They probably don't even know

how the replica was generated.

We'll demand Quantum Avatar relinquish all rights to the replica so they never

use it again.

What if they say no?

We go public.

Exploding the grief of parents is not a good look.

Don't change yourself. Change your perspective.

Be kind to yourself, Lawrence.

Great job.

Thanks.

The other day, I thought you were trying to, you know, so I, you know. We don't

need a play -by -play.

I just don't want things to get awkward between us.

You're making things awkward right now.

We work together. Let's just keep things professional.

Pretend it never happened.

Okay.

Oh, I'm sorry. I'll let you.

So you two met at that bar where the broker bros go?

I've been there once and everything felt sticky.

I did not choose that bar. My co -workers did. But you picked him up? Was

dare? Nah, I just had a few drinks with me.

I regret introducing you two.

This must be the woman I've heard so much about.

This is Jude. Jude, my Uncle Bill.

Hi.

When are you going to tie the knot? Make an honest woman of her.

Oh, it's okay. I lost my honesty when I was 16.

Dinner's ready.

Get your butts out here.

Thank you all for coming.

My children, William, Jude, nice to welcome you into the fold.

And to my beautiful bride -to -be for bringing us all together.

Cheers. Cheers.

Cheers.

Okay, let's eat.

I'd also like to make a toast.

When Joanne reached out and told me about the wedding, I thought, you're

But no.

You two really are putting yourselves through that again.

So to Harry and Joanne and their second shot.

What's the definition of insanity?

Doing the same thing over and over and... So,

how'd

you like the office tour?

Ouch! It was fine.

Until Jerry showed me her scheduling system.

Yikes.

What's wrong with her system?

You mean that mom calendar?

Did you see that spreadsheet tool?

It is a miracle Svensson & Svensson has been running this long.

Jerry's great at what she does.

I'm sure she was.

Back when pens were quills.

You know, maybe if she spent less time handwriting appointments, she could

update her skills and join us in the modern age.

Jerry doesn't just use that mom calendar for appointments.

She records birthdays and anniversaries. The day Cecil passed his paralegal

exam.

Okay. Jerry's the beating heart of our firm.

You should feel honored to succeed her.

You know what? I'm allergic to pasta.

Bitch, you picked this place!

It was my third year in boarding school.

Harrison had just started. He was miserable.

Cried in the dorms every night for his mummy.

That's understandable.

You were like 12?

The other boys smelled weakness.

So one day, I'm in the quad.

See these other kids surround him. They start hurling dodgeballs at him. Boom,

boom, boom, boom, boom.

Didn't cry for mother after that, did you, Harrison?

So you just stood there while your younger brother was being pelted by

dodgeballs? It was a boys' school.

You might want to rethink telling that old chepnut.

You don't come out looking good.

You should learn how to take a joke.

You should learn how to tell one. Well, you've certainly inherited your mother's

mouth. William.

A word.

You let her talk to you like that?

That was uncalled for.

Every time you open your mouth, it's to insult my loved ones or humiliate me.

Oh, come on. I was just messing around. When did you become so thin -skinned?

You've been doing this your whole lives. You want to bring out the gloves? I'll

let you take the first swing.

Fair warning, I won't go easy. You never did.

Those gloves were never for resolving conflicts.

Dad turned every argument we had into a blood sport. You're being dramatic.

You're two years older than me.

You were bigger and stronger, and Dad knew that. He wanted to see me get

pummeled, and you gave him what he wanted.

Every time.

I can forgive you for what you did. We were children.

And he was a tyrant.

I can even tolerate the way you continue to humiliate me, trying to make me feel

like that little kid in the boxing gloves.

But you?

Will not go after my family.

The expression that I feel like is very Daniel.

Okay, I don't.

William won't be staying for dessert.

Now, what were we all talking about?

Jude was showing us a character she designed.

Look familiar?

You got three guesses whose forehead that is, and the first two don't count.

The likeness is uncanny.

He doesn't look anything like me.

Oh, you keep telling yourself that.

I mean, we've all seen that face. I don't like that mask.

The late Mr. Cook wanted his son to pursue a meaningful, stable

Now, not only is this...

not what he had in mind.

It prevents his son from meeting the human partner his father wanted for him.

Out of respect for the grantor's intention, the trustee will not

drawdown.

Does opposing counsel have anything to hide?

Your Honor, this trust stipulation should be void because it's founded on

immoral consideration.

For a moment, let's forget about the doll.

I'll try.

So what if my client isn't dating anyone?

Relationships take all forms.

I'm currently in a platonic co -parenting arrangement.

I wouldn't meet the stipulation even though this relationship is the most

I've ever had.

Objection. How is counsel's love life or lack of it relevant?

Overruled. I'm curious where this is going.

My client is capable of cultivating human relationships.

Objection. He brought a sex doll to court. For some people, socializing is

So they learn ways to push themselves outside their comfort zone.

Vanessa gives Kenneth that push.

She helps him build the confidence to meet people.

Signed affidavits from Kenneth's colleagues.

They all describe him the same way.

Quiet, yes, but a team player with an endearing passion for bees.

Some of his colleagues even describe Kenneth as a friend.

Your Honor, my client is not unstable, unhappy, or lonely.

He's just single.

Why prioritize a romantic relationship when he already has a wealth of

connections that enrich his life? Forcing him to be in a committed

violates public policy.

Counsel Rath.

I agree, counsel.

The clause places an unnecessary burden onto the beneficiary.

I hereby order the trustee to pay the drawdown.

Congratulations. Why'd you say I was single? I'm not.

You won. How about a thank you, Daniel?

Thank you, Daniel.

You're welcome, Vanessa.

Winston,

order some pastries from Oku and make sure you get blondies for Cecile.

Thank you, sir.

I take it dinner went well?

Very.

And how did your dinner go?

Not great.

I don't know. What happened?

We had a disagreement.

It's whatever.

Oh.

Will it be weird working with Troy?

I won't have to.

By the time he gets here, I will have started grad school.

The gap here is almost up.

Wait, you're leaving too?

When?

Gap year, Cecil.

Oh.

Now I hear it.

Two friends gone.

This hurts more than when they canceled Whippet. True friends are never apart.

Perhaps in distance, but not in heart.

Without you, Jerry, who will give proverbs no one asked for?

And without you, Winston, who will answer the phones?

He's got a point.

Really does feel like the end of something, doesn't it?

Hey, Jerry.

Even though we're both leaving, we can still hang out, right?

Grab brunch?

Let's pick a date, shall we?

Minis was appalled to discover the origins of Libby's image.

And Quantum Avatar has agreed to relinquish all rights to the replica.

After discussing matters, my client agrees to delete the AI.

We can visit her at Glen Forest.

Visiting Libby's grave reminds me of her death.

I just wanted to remember her life.

If I could offer a suggestion, what about a swing set in Libby's favorite

in her name?

That's a beautiful idea.

Emile?

when our clients land on the same page.

Do you think it's possible that they'll find their way back to each other?

I hope so.

When Nico gets home, I'm going to hug him so hard his beret is going to pop

I was digging through some boxes last night. Look what I found.

Is that... I'll leave it here. You can listen to it when you wish.

Wait. Will you listen to it with me?

We're away from the phone right now, so please leave a message after the beep.

Now, how do I save this? You hit the button. I did. It's not working. I tried

that button.

Why are there so many useless buttons?

How's the press line?

What if we just hang up?

Oh, are we still recording?

All right, I'm heading out.

Your office should be moving ready in the next two weeks.

Thanks. I love the kitchen cabinets.

Yeah, quality storage.

Hey, when this contract's over, would you, um... Would you be

interested in going out sometime?

You mean, like, on a date?

Yeah.

Uh... I'd love to, but... I'm gonna have to

decline.

Oh.

Oh, sorry, I... I guess I misread things.

Oh, no, no.

You didn't.

At the risk of getting too much information, I have been coupled up most

adult life.

I met my ex -husband in university.

My rebound was supposed to be a blip and then wasn't.

And my last relationship didn't end well.

I think I need to be single for a while longer before I inflict myself on anyone

else.

That really was too much information.

But I get it.

Thank you.

So, how are things with Robin?

Still awkward.

Well, if it's any comfort.

It'll only be awkward for as long as you continue working with her.

Very comforting. Thanks.

On happier news, I found an office.

Two blocks west of Maine, walking distance from home. That's great, Lucy.

Thanks. Dad was surprised when I told him I was leaving, but Lucy still has

and Daniel.

Uh, right. About that.

I'm almost finished the reno on my new office space.

For the firm I'm starting.

Wait, you're starting your own firm? Since when? Since I realized working

Marcus was akin to making a pact with Satan.

I can't. I can't believe you're just telling me this now.

It makes me feel any better. You're the first person I'm telling.

You haven't told Dad?

I will.

You're afraid to tell him. No, I'm not.

I just need to get my duck lined up first.
