You really think that she's a danger to
herself?

Yes. I feel it. If you ever lay a hand
on my daughter, I will make sure that

regret it.

He didn't do anything. She started it.
Why did you do that?

Louis sexting's Blake. Your boyfriend
Blake?

That's why he kept liking all her thirst
traps on Instagram.

Why wouldn't you let me in on what you
were going through? Like you and Dad let

us in on things? When was it that you
told us why you were splitting up?

You saved her life.

Thank you for creating a place like
this.

I fucked up. I let Lucy see Alex.

You what?

She has no friends.

She only has us. But I managed to
connect to her.

Finally, she's talking to me. She's
starting to trust me.

Every six days, a woman in Canada is
killed by her intimate partner.

Countless others endure physical,
emotional, and psychological abuse,

silence and isolation.

This is not the legacy that we want to
leave for our daughters and for my Lucy.

So today, we raise our voices in unison
and we say, enough is enough.

action from our government.

Well, it's that time of year again. The
leaves are starting to hint at a change.

Back -to -school season is upon us. Good
one.

And with that, school supply lists are
dropping, and it is a bloodbath out

there. Inflation is hitting harder than
a pop quiz.

Well, lament no more, because I am here
to share my back -to -school shopping

tips. Tell us your secrets, Jill.

Well, for starters, my tip is to shop
early and shop smart.

Back to two.

Hey. Look, I'm not asking you for
anything.

Obviously, you are in the thick of it
right now, and I couldn't possibly

understand.

I just want you to know that I am here
for you.

Okay, whatever you need.

And I'm saying that as your friend and
colleague.

Part of me that's in love with you...
Fuck that guy, okay? Forget about him.

Don't worry about him.

It's the part of you that's in love with
me that I'm worried about.

Why do I get the feeling that was
goodbye?

Goodbye, Manny.

I take it you're not getting any sleep
either.

Why is Lou so fragile?

Did I push her too hard?

Did I expect too much? Is it because
we...

Split up?

Rationally, we must recognize that it's
not our fault.

I mean, we never argued in front of
them. We never bad -mouthed each other.

I mean, geez, I even moved right next
door so we could stay close. What more

could we have done to make it easier on
them? By telling them what was going on

between us.

They had to figure it out themselves
once Naima moved in.

I think that hit you the hardest.

I had no objection.

Then why dwell on it?

Because what does that say about your
dynamic with them? Your dynamic with

What are you trying to say?

I don't know. I'm just... I'm wondering
if Lou is insecure

because of your chronic avoidance of
her.

By what?

By your own admission, you didn't want
another child.

When she was born, you were angry. Angry
with me, fair enough, but you wouldn't

go near her.

He wouldn't hold her.

You've always struggled with that.

Maybe Lou sensed it.

Maybe that's why she lacks self -esteem.

Mr. Daniels, Miss Walker.

We're just trying to piece together what
led to Lucy's emotional state.

The principal said that you had a few
sessions with her when her grades

slipping. I did.

At our first meeting, you should know.

And, of course, I shared this with
Principal Gleeson.

Lucy flirted so aggressively with me
that I suggested she speak with a female

colleague instead.

Jesus Christ. I think she was just
testing whether she could trust me.

But once I called her out on it, she
stopped deflecting and opened up.

She had recently withdrawn from her
sports study program, citing immense

pressure. She was particularly
distressed.

about falling out with friends.

Lucy exhibited a tendency to belittle
herself.

That said, on our subsequent meetings,
she seemed to have improved.

She mentioned having a boyfriend, and
her outlook seemed positive overall,

genuinely optimistic.

I found her demeanor convincing.

Did she say anything about us?

Like many teenagers, she oscillates
between viewing you as superheroes and

finding you nagging or overbearing.

But what I gleaned from it is that you
are actively involved in her life, and

that's a good thing.

Catch you later?

Stella.

Is Lucy okay?

We haven't seen her around.

No. No, she's not. She's going through a
really rough time.

Look, I was hoping that we could talk.

I don't know. I get it. It's
uncomfortable. But I'm just trying to

why Lucy would hurt you the way that she
did.

Because she was jealous.

Jealous of... What?

I don't know. She just didn't feel good
enough, I guess.

I think that's why she started acting
out all of a sudden.

What do you mean all of a sudden? When
did this start?

I guess it sort of started around the
second qualifying round for the

score brought down her team average,
dropping her into a lower division.

So Josie had to change her routine.

And Lou, she just lost her spark.

After that, she became so angry.

And she started taking it out on us.

On me, mostly.

That's when I found out she was texting
my boyfriend just to hurt me.

What are you doing with my phone?

After that day, she stopped coming to
gymnastics.

And that's when she met that older guy.

I'm sorry, Mrs. Walker. I have to go.

Thank you.

Do you have any idea how much the sports
study program costs?

Of course I do.

Then how do you justify dropping Lucy
after one bad day of tryouts?

Tryouts? That was over four months ago.
She told me that she quit to focus on

academics. Now I know that you just gave
up on her.

Do you realize how humiliating that must
have been?

Do you even get how vulnerable kids are
at this age?

Sports is meant to teach resilience, and
I'm sorry Lucy just doesn't have it.

She gave up on herself, and she would
have taken the whole team down with her.

This is high school, not the Olympics,
for Christ's sake. Look, no parent wants

to see their child fail, but gymnastics
is demanding.

It's competitive. It's my job to push
these kids to be their best, and to tell

them the truth when they just don't have
what it takes.

That takes courage.

No.

It takes courage to believe in someone
who has given up on herself.

And if you don't have that, you better
find the balls to tell her mother about

it.

We've been keeping a close eye on Lucy
over the past few days. It appears she's

suffering from major depressive
disorder, or MDD.

Sorry.

Parking was a nightmare.

She's my partner. I thought she should
be here for this.

Very well.

We feel Lucy is currently at high risk
for self -harm.

While... Recent events have contributed
to her depression. It's possible that

there are deeper underlying issues at
play.

For example, unresolved trauma can
dysregulate the body's stress response

system. When can she come home?

We've started her on antidepressants,
but I'd like to keep her under

a little longer.

Why did you bring me here? I want to go
home.

We want to help you to get better.

It's not helping.

I hate it.

I'm begging you, please get me out of
here.

Come home to mama.

Procedure now.

Procedure now.

Come home to mother.

I shall burn down the heat. I shall take
away every

morsel to eat.

I shall turn every field into stone.

he gets out of the hospital, we're
splitting custody 50 -50.

We'll get the lawyers to draw it up. I'm
not going to stand by any longer while

you try to shut me out of my daughter's
life.

Look, I wasn't trying to accuse you of
anything. I'm just trying to figure out

what's going on with Lou. Look, I'm
tired of being blamed for everything

you act like you are above reproach.

Do you even know how your decisions have
impacted my life?

We already had a child, Nick.

It's not like I... I didn't want another
child. You knew that.

I just needed some time to process it,
to forgive you.

Does that make me a bad guy?

Is that why you kept me away from her?
To punish me?

Or to prove yet again that you were the
super mom, the super woman?

The one who's really in control?

Welcome to Plan B agency.

Using the keypad, select your desired
destination.

For the year 2025.

Press what? For the year 2000.

You have chosen the year 2025.

Abigail Walker?

Is this really necessary?

So it came as a complete surprise, then.

Sorry, what came as a surprise? You were
telling me your reaction to being

awarded the Order of Canada in June.

Oh, uh, no. I mean, yes.

It was a complete surprise.

Let's have a look at some of the
highlights of a career marked with

initiatives and achievements and
progress and justice.

Enough is enough.

Sorry about that. It's good to know it
really does happen to the best of us.

Hey, Jonathan. It's Abigail Walker. How
are you? Hey, Abby. Great to hear from

you. Yeah, how are your classes going?

It's busy, but you know.

Great, great, great.

I have a little favor to ask you.

So?

What do you think?

What do I think about what?

Circus school.

I mean, you've always loved the circus,
and you're so talented.

What about gymnastics?

Gymnastics?

I don't know. It's just, it's a lot of
pressure, isn't it?

Well, yeah.

With tryouts coming up, plus midterms
and everything, it's hard to find time

train. Isn't gymnastics more of a
stepping stone to this?

I mean, you're more than an athlete.

You're an artist.

So I thought, why wait?

You mean now? Yeah. It's the middle of
the semester.

The director said you can enroll anyway.

Just show them what you got, and I bet
they will jump at the opportunity to

you. You think so?

Hell yeah.

back to the daily dawn today our musical
guest is avant -garde pop

icon camille paulacan also known as croy
the one and only this juno award winner

is known for her unique sound and
haunting vocals exploring love loss and

death welcome to the show thank you so
much for having me it's great to be back

in toronto

Excuse me, but what is going on with the
new guy that has you all up to here?

What? Nothing. I'm just out of it. Now,
I see you. I see him. I see you seeing

him. I see you. Hey there, Kat.

We're in a room full of mics that leads
straight to HR.

I never said a thing.

Express and change for food, ma 'am.

I'm pregnant and I have nowhere to go.

I left my guy because he was a fighter.

You know what I mean?

Had to get my baby out of there if we're
going to stand a chance.

I know, Stephanie.

How do you know my name?

You told me, didn't you?

Do you want to come with me? I know a
place where you could stay. It's safe.

Go with me.

How are you sure she has borderline
personality disorder?

Was she assessed?

You'll understand when you talk to her.

Well, we don't have the resources to
accommodate mental health cases. I know,

but we have to. We need to launch a
program for it.

Okay, well, that requires funding and
more personnel. We'll recruit more staff

and we'll double our fundraising goals.

With the election looming, the premier
has no choice but to back us if he has

any hopes of re -election.

And I have a meeting with the minister
to discuss a subsidy.

I'll arrange one with him this summer.

And all signs point to a cabinet
reshuffle on the horizon.

Don't you think?

Jesus, Abigail, slow down.

doing here well i have an idea what kind
of idea i think you should consider

quitting your job but you've always told
me you wanted me to be independent yeah

so that's where my idea comes in i will
pay you a salary to focus on your

studies plus the bonus if you get your
grades up it has been a lot yeah i don't

think i can do this circus program
audition tomorrow

I don't feel ready.

You don't need to prepare anything
elaborate. The director just wants to

what you can do.

I'm struggling with my new routine.

And national gymnastics trials are next
week.

Well, then do an older routine you feel
more comfortable with.

And what if I get in?

What about gymnastics?

And what about my friend?

We'll cross that bridge when we get to
it. I need you to believe in yourself.

Can't make this deal with me, Lou.

She's got a strong foundation.

You can definitely work with her. You
just need to discuss some accommodations

for her support study program, and her
academic performance requires a little

bit of attention.

Her grades won't be a problem, I
promise, Jonathan.

Josie is going to understand.

No, it's not that. I just, I don't want
to stop gymnastics.

I know it's been hard, but I really
think I can be better if I focus and put

the work.

I can do Circus Academy next year,
maybe.

There might not be a spot for you next
year.

I know, but this is what I want.

Sweetie, your friends are still going to
be your friends. You'll meet new

friends in circus school.

I just think that the circus is what you
need right now.

I thought it was supposed to be my
choice, because it's starting to sound

it's yours.

You're right. I'm sorry.

It's just... Never mind.

Okay, I'll see you later.

Have fun.

Trying to make me late for trials?

No, I just can't find my, uh, my lid.

Wait, hold on.

Yes.

Ultimately, it is your choice.

But can you tell me the real reason that
you're backing out of the circus

academy?

I'm scared.

What?

Of what?

That I'm not good enough.

Honey, they already want you.

And circus isn't about comparison like
gymnastics.

It's about creativity and teamwork.

I mean, wouldn't you rather be a part of
something that's about creation and not

competition?

There's always competition.

Have you seen those girls at the
academy?

They're all tall and graceful and
beautiful.

I stick out like a sore thumb.

Sweetie, you are beautiful.

No, I'm not.

Lou, oh my God, you are stunning.

Trust me.

You're my mom, you have to say that.

Plus, I'll never be as beautiful as you.

Well, that's not how I see myself.

I'm not even close.

If you feel that way, maybe we need to
trade perspectives.

You look at yourself through my eyes,
and I'll look at myself through yours.

That was great.

He's cute. You should invite him to your
party.

Mom. Mom. What?

Did Lucy tell you guys how well it's
going at circus school?

No, but we can tell.

I'm honestly so proud of her.

Okay, I need at least, like, everything
you're wearing right now. What are you

up to?

Oh, just a little work party.

Speaking of which, aren't you running
late?

Loud and clear.

And remember, you don't have to drink
nearly as much as you think you do to

a good time.

We heard you the first time.

We should have the party ourselves.

I'm going, I'm going, I'm going.

Bye. Bye.

To the number one morning show, not to
mention reigning supreme

among women in the 25 to 54 demographic.

Well, when I was there, I think she was
talking to that circus dude.

You don't mind if our elbows are
touching, do you?

No. Okay.

It's kind of a kink of mine.

Elbow touching.

You have a look about you.

Do I?

What kind of look is that?

Thank you for reminding me.

Reminding you of what?

How much I enjoyed that.

By that, do you mean the intertwining of
two souls meeting in the thrills of

passion?

No, you're welcome with this.

I can't happen again, though.

What? But...

Once is really not enough to experience
the full breadth of my sexual talents.

Oh, wow.

Then we better make it a doubleheader.

Because after tonight...

See that sentence?

It's too long. It obscures what you're
trying to communicate.

Lou, we're trying to get your grades up
here.

What are you talking about? This
couldn't be more clear.

Yes, it could, and you could make a
stronger argument.

If it were me, I would say, what
distinguishes literature from other art

is the ease and precision with which it
can simplify complex subjects, like love

and death.

This whole other part is redundant.

So, I was thinking about how I want the
kids to be in Ottawa when I receive the

Order of Canada. Yeah, I thought that
was the plan.

Well, I was thinking that I want their
father there, too.

Maybe we could go out for a nice dinner
and celebrate Lucy's academic success as

well. I mean, Naima's more than welcome,
obviously. You know that she works

weekends. Besides, I'm sure that wasn't
what you had in mind. Well, just tell

her she's invited.

I think the kids will love it, and I
would love to have the whole family

together.

What do you have?

Your dad's going to pull a classic move
and order something you saw at another

table. Okay.

And your mom's going to get stuck in
manual limbo, regretting her choice the

second she sees mine.

And then I'm going to ask you to switch.

Why aren't you guys together anymore?

Where did that come from?

Uh, well, um, we split up because we

weren't in love anymore.

And we were more like friends, you know?

And we thought it would be easier on you
guys if we said that we were just

taking a break and Dad moving next door
was only temporary.

But we knew that was a lie, and we
should have been honest with you.

It's too bad.

You guys make a cute couple.

And that's why you were blindsided when
Naima showed up.

It must have seemed like it came out of
nowhere, but you can't fault your father

for wanting to move on, right?

At that point in time, your mother and I
weren't together. I know, I know. She

talked to you both first, but everything
happened so fast.

Okay, uh, we gonna order or what?

Right? Santa Tartar? That looks good.

Hey, no duck faces, this is for
Instagram.

Thank you so much.

Oh, I haven't. No, you haven't.

Can we go to the outdoor concert at City
Hall?

Uh, you know what? We have an early
start tomorrow. The ceremony's at nine,

don't think it's a good idea.

I wouldn't mind checking out the
concert, too.

Okay. Well, as long as you guys stick
together and no fighting, please.

What do you mean?

We never fight.

And back to the hotel as soon as the
concert's over.

Yes, Mother.

Good night.

Good night.

Why did you tell him that we weren't in
love anymore?

I just thought that it was time to be
honest with him.

Might have been honest for you, but I
was still in love with you.

The breakup was tough on me, but so was
parenting with you.

You made me feel like I couldn't do
anything right, especially with Lou.

You held it against me that I didn't
want her at first, and that I couldn't

her in my arms.

If I could go back, I'd change all of
that.

You know, it was hard for me, too.

When I moved in with you, I knew it was
over between us, but I just kept asking

myself, why her?

Meaning?

She's so different than I am.

Just easy with her.

We're a team. I feel supported,
accepted, seen.

And when we make love, we...

She knows how to let herself go.

Wait, let herself go?

As opposed to what, exactly?

Yeah. I mean, come on, you know.

No, I don't.

We talked about this all the time.

Well, then remind me.

Those times when we really took our
time, you know?

When we really made love and let
ourselves go.

Afterwards, you...

Jumped out of bed right away.

It was uncomfortable for you.

You had to put some distance between us,
like the connection was too much for

you.

So what? It was 17 years of bad sex?

I'm not talking about sex.

I'm talking about intimacy
vulnerability.

It's just not easy for you, that's all.

Night.

We'll let you know when we get through
it tomorrow.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Uh, yeah.

Okay.

All right. Me too.

I just want you to know... I think
you're a good man.

And I think you're a great father.

Never let myself go.

Not even once.

I know.

On a scale of one to ten?

Nine. Nine?

I haven't even looked at my phone.

Even though I'm not thinking about the
kids.

Definitely a six. Oh, my God.

Oh, it's Felix.

Hey, are you heading back?

Mom, I don't know what to do.

Lou's getting hammered with some guy at
the bar, and she won't come back to the

hotel with me.

What? Put her on the phone.

Can't see them anymore.

Where are you?

Grenade on York Street.

Okay, well, just stay there, okay? I'm
coming.

What's going on?

Hey, it's Lucy.

Leave me a message.

Lou, call me right now.

It's Lucy.

Leave me a message.

Lucy, please call me.

Oh, my God. I've got my phone synced to
hers. I can track her location. Oh,

shit. What's this? What? No, that was
last time. What does this guy look like?

How old is he? I don't know. Like 30,
maybe? 30?

And you let him walk out the door with
her? I tried to stop him. It's not that

small. Panicking won't help, Abby.

Of course he's going to do that. What
the hell was I thinking? What the fuck

we do, Nick?

Yes, she was last seen with an older
man.

I think they took off that way.

We'll search the parking lot near the
train tracks.

Lots of folks go there to... I'm going
to head back to the hotel.

Are you serious?

No, that's a good idea. Just tell us if
she shows up, okay? Come on.

Son of a bitch.

What's the problem, officer?

She's a child and she's intoxicated. You
fucking pervert.

Jesus.

Oh, my God. Are you okay?

I am.

You know how old she is? She's 15.

She told me she was 19.

Are you blind? Calm down, sir. We don't
want you in trouble, too.

Why did you do this?

Abigail.

Answer me, Lou.

What was it?

Was it all too good?

Were we all too happy and you had to
mess things up?

I didn't raise you to be like this, did
I?

What? Tell me what I did wrong. Tell me
what I'm supposed to do with you.

I'm completely lost. I'm just so
ashamed.

Just say it. It's okay.

I'm a disgusting slut. I know how you
see me.

How could you say such a thing?

Listen.

Look at me, sweetie.

Nobody here thinks that about you.

I took at school.

I only got into the circus program
because the director is one of her fans.

I'm never going to be like you.

Like what?

Perfect.

I know you want me to be, but I can't.

I don't know what's wrong with me. I'm
sorry.
