1
00:00:01,303 --> 00:00:03,593
♪ Having my baby... ♪
2
00:00:05,254 --> 00:00:06,402
Hey.
3
00:00:07,222 --> 00:00:09,199
♪ How much you love me... ♪
4
00:00:10,542 --> 00:00:11,757
It's slippery.
Watch your step.
5
00:00:11,883 --> 00:00:14,284
You're good. I got you. I got you.
All right. - Okay, okay.
6
00:00:14,479 --> 00:00:16,760
- Everything's in the bag?
- Yeah. Got it all. Got it all.
7
00:00:16,988 --> 00:00:18,041
- Are you sure?
- Yep.
8
00:00:18,129 --> 00:00:19,394
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
9
00:00:19,481 --> 00:00:21,160
All right, there you go.
10
00:00:21,455 --> 00:00:22,938
We're close.
11
00:00:23,026 --> 00:00:24,112
You're good.
12
00:00:24,424 --> 00:00:25,502
All right.
13
00:00:29,873 --> 00:00:32,279
You're almost there.
I can see the baby's head.
14
00:00:32,545 --> 00:00:34,284
- I can't do this anymore.
- Yes, you can.
15
00:00:34,373 --> 00:00:35,819
- You've got this, babe.
- No, I don't!
16
00:00:35,906 --> 00:00:36,904
- Yes, you do.
- No.
17
00:00:36,992 --> 00:00:38,299
Just listen to the doctor.
We're almost done.
18
00:00:38,386 --> 00:00:39,256
Elisabeth.
19
00:00:39,344 --> 00:00:40,403
Concentrate.
20
00:00:40,491 --> 00:00:42,537
With the next contraction,
I need you to push
21
00:00:42,625 --> 00:00:44,193
with all your might.
You do that,
22
00:00:44,281 --> 00:00:45,631
and then you get
to meet your baby.
23
00:00:45,718 --> 00:00:47,232
- That's what you said the last time.
- Okay.
24
00:00:47,319 --> 00:00:48,288
Here we go.
25
00:00:53,298 --> 00:00:54,303
It's a boy.
26
00:00:58,338 --> 00:01:00,253
What's wrong?
Is something wrong?
27
00:01:00,341 --> 00:01:01,375
Something wrong
with the baby?
28
00:01:01,462 --> 00:01:04,575
No, no.
He's perfectly healthy.
29
00:01:04,663 --> 00:01:06,038
Okay.
30
00:01:06,868 --> 00:01:08,951
Oh, baby.
31
00:01:19,208 --> 00:01:21,132
Miles, you're not,
you're not saying anything.
32
00:01:21,220 --> 00:01:23,553
Why... why aren't you
saying anything?
33
00:01:24,079 --> 00:01:26,163
Uh, he's beautiful.
34
00:01:29,030 --> 00:01:31,108
It's just he's
brown.
35
00:01:33,083 --> 00:01:34,258
What?
36
00:01:38,569 --> 00:01:39,767
Oh, my God, Elisabeth,
37
00:01:39,855 --> 00:01:41,596
he is so adorable.
38
00:01:41,848 --> 00:01:43,676
He is, isn't he?
39
00:01:44,186 --> 00:01:45,796
How's Miles holding up?
40
00:01:46,768 --> 00:01:48,770
Miles is having
a tough time.
41
00:01:49,029 --> 00:01:50,436
I mean, he loves him.
42
00:01:50,524 --> 00:01:52,038
But he's...
43
00:01:52,595 --> 00:01:54,507
It's been difficult
with his family.
44
00:01:54,595 --> 00:01:56,194
The guys at work.
45
00:01:56,879 --> 00:01:58,958
You probably noticed
we didn't put Joseph's picture
46
00:01:59,046 --> 00:02:00,280
on the birth announcement.
47
00:02:00,780 --> 00:02:02,178
We didn't even
talk about it.
48
00:02:02,266 --> 00:02:04,427
I just showed him a card
without a picture, and he went,
49
00:02:04,514 --> 00:02:06,122
"Yeah, that's great."
50
00:02:06,210 --> 00:02:07,382
Sorry.
51
00:02:07,470 --> 00:02:08,561
I brought him
to school,
52
00:02:08,657 --> 00:02:10,530
showed him to
my second graders last week.
53
00:02:11,316 --> 00:02:12,624
What an age.
54
00:02:13,571 --> 00:02:16,069
Yeah, nobody asks questions,
nobody judges.
55
00:02:16,157 --> 00:02:18,108
They just want to know
if he can have candy yet.
56
00:02:19,845 --> 00:02:21,405
- Yes, you.
- Oh.
57
00:02:21,493 --> 00:02:23,147
Yes, you.
58
00:02:23,235 --> 00:02:24,932
Oh, my love.
59
00:02:25,796 --> 00:02:27,296
Thanks so much
for coming.
60
00:02:27,384 --> 00:02:28,266
I know I sort of
61
00:02:28,354 --> 00:02:30,078
fell off the face of the Earth
there for a while.
62
00:02:30,165 --> 00:02:31,772
No, I was thrilled
when you called.
63
00:02:31,860 --> 00:02:34,108
I was thrilled
when you said yes.
64
00:02:34,672 --> 00:02:37,507
But... I have
an ulterior motive.
65
00:02:38,388 --> 00:02:39,655
Okay.
66
00:02:39,942 --> 00:02:41,842
You've probably figured
this out already,
67
00:02:41,930 --> 00:02:43,583
but little Joseph here,
68
00:02:43,947 --> 00:02:46,298
he didn't happen
without some help.
69
00:02:46,913 --> 00:02:49,108
I know you know Miles and I
were trying for years;
70
00:02:49,196 --> 00:02:51,616
finally started doing
the fertility clinic thing.
71
00:02:51,847 --> 00:02:56,007
Lots of almosts, couple
of outright failures, too.
72
00:02:56,186 --> 00:02:58,027
And of course,
one fantastic,
73
00:02:58,115 --> 00:03:00,301
thrilling success.
74
00:03:01,952 --> 00:03:06,085
Unfortunately, in the process
of arriving at that success,
75
00:03:06,228 --> 00:03:09,362
the clinic,
apparently, mistakenly,
76
00:03:09,597 --> 00:03:12,967
used... another patient's sperm.
77
00:03:13,477 --> 00:03:15,108
I-I called because
I remembered
78
00:03:15,196 --> 00:03:16,415
you work at
a law firm now.
79
00:03:16,632 --> 00:03:19,763
Well, actually,
it's a trial science firm.
80
00:03:19,944 --> 00:03:21,662
But there are lawyers
there, right?
81
00:03:21,750 --> 00:03:24,476
Yes. There are lawyers.
82
00:03:24,564 --> 00:03:26,827
Good. 'Cause I need one.
83
00:03:27,056 --> 00:03:28,536
I just want to be clear.
84
00:03:28,623 --> 00:03:30,058
I love my son.
85
00:03:30,307 --> 00:03:32,135
I thank God every
day for my son.
86
00:03:32,308 --> 00:03:34,941
And we are both incredibly
grateful for this gift.
87
00:03:35,515 --> 00:03:36,659
Duly noted.
88
00:03:36,801 --> 00:03:38,237
So...
89
00:03:38,620 --> 00:03:40,808
..what is it you want
to achieve by suing the clinic?
90
00:03:40,982 --> 00:03:43,407
Well, first and foremost,
we want to make sure
91
00:03:43,495 --> 00:03:45,316
this doesn't happen
to anyone else.
92
00:03:45,565 --> 00:03:49,855
I mean... our son
has a stranger's DNA.
93
00:03:49,986 --> 00:03:52,058
We-we really feel like
we're in a blind spot
94
00:03:52,146 --> 00:03:54,752
regarding so many things:
I mean, medical history,
95
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:57,339
intellectual aptitudes,
social challenges.
96
00:03:57,427 --> 00:03:58,863
We're not
wealthy people.
97
00:03:59,198 --> 00:04:00,253
I work in
construction,
98
00:04:00,341 --> 00:04:01,733
my wife's a second
grade teacher.
99
00:04:01,821 --> 00:04:04,089
All right, for six years,
we poured every cent we had
100
00:04:04,177 --> 00:04:05,396
in trying to
get pregnant.
101
00:04:05,692 --> 00:04:06,784
Took out loans.
102
00:04:06,872 --> 00:04:08,714
We're in debt
up to our eyeballs.
103
00:04:09,602 --> 00:04:10,964
And we did it
104
00:04:11,214 --> 00:04:13,113
all so we
could have a child together.
105
00:04:13,752 --> 00:04:15,128
T-Together.
106
00:04:15,520 --> 00:04:16,745
You know what I mean.
107
00:04:16,833 --> 00:04:17,888
So,
108
00:04:17,976 --> 00:04:19,590
in addition to putting
the clinic on notice
109
00:04:19,677 --> 00:04:20,659
so it cleans up its act
110
00:04:20,747 --> 00:04:22,667
and doesn't make
this kind of mistake again,
111
00:04:22,787 --> 00:04:24,909
you also want to recover
some of the costs
112
00:04:24,997 --> 00:04:26,339
associated
with your treatments,
113
00:04:26,427 --> 00:04:30,456
because, while you are thrilled
to have baby Joseph,
114
00:04:30,863 --> 00:04:32,752
it was not the outcome
you were promised.
115
00:04:32,840 --> 00:04:33,972
Exactly.
116
00:04:34,060 --> 00:04:34,964
I have to warn you
117
00:04:35,052 --> 00:04:37,855
that reproductive negligence
cases can be very tricky.
118
00:04:38,178 --> 00:04:40,941
Juries have a hard time
ruling in the plaintiff's favor
119
00:04:41,029 --> 00:04:42,191
when they've walked away
120
00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:43,527
with a healthy baby.
121
00:04:47,252 --> 00:04:49,464
Well, let's not
get ahead of ourselves.
122
00:04:50,700 --> 00:04:52,816
I don't know that this is
necessarily ever gonna see
123
00:04:52,904 --> 00:04:54,341
the inside of a courtroom.
124
00:04:54,550 --> 00:04:56,175
Let me call the clinic
on your behalf,
125
00:04:56,278 --> 00:04:57,926
see if we can't get
their lawyers over here
126
00:04:58,013 --> 00:05:01,147
and... figure this out
the old-fashioned way:
127
00:05:01,235 --> 00:05:03,977
across a table,
with lots of coffee
128
00:05:04,311 --> 00:05:05,791
and some bathroom breaks.
129
00:05:07,645 --> 00:05:09,299
You keep wanting to look past
130
00:05:09,387 --> 00:05:11,355
the fact that my clients
have clear evidence.
131
00:05:11,443 --> 00:05:13,355
I'm not looking
past anything.
132
00:05:13,796 --> 00:05:16,691
The clinic has already
admitted fault here.
133
00:05:16,831 --> 00:05:17,893
They've tightened up
134
00:05:17,989 --> 00:05:19,230
their practices
and added
135
00:05:19,318 --> 00:05:20,636
new security safeguards.
136
00:05:20,791 --> 00:05:22,619
They've sent letters
to all of their clients
137
00:05:22,707 --> 00:05:24,613
informing them
of this incident.
138
00:05:24,740 --> 00:05:27,823
And now they're offering
free DNA testing
139
00:05:27,911 --> 00:05:29,478
to any new parents
who worry
140
00:05:29,566 --> 00:05:32,495
that they may also be
victims of this mishap.
141
00:05:32,662 --> 00:05:34,753
Which is all well and good
for the clinic,
142
00:05:34,841 --> 00:05:37,097
but we're here to try
and help the McConnells.
143
00:05:37,604 --> 00:05:38,956
Of course.
144
00:05:39,044 --> 00:05:42,277
And after much consideration
and conversation,
145
00:05:42,372 --> 00:05:44,902
the clinic would like
to offer the McConnells
146
00:05:44,990 --> 00:05:49,698
their sincerest apology
and a check for $40,000
147
00:05:49,864 --> 00:05:53,607
as reimbursement
for the round of IVF
148
00:05:53,828 --> 00:05:55,495
that didn't
follow protocol.
149
00:05:56,144 --> 00:05:58,261
I'm sorry, but that
number doesn't even begin
150
00:05:58,349 --> 00:06:01,134
to take into account that
this "round of IVF"
151
00:06:01,222 --> 00:06:03,620
that did not follow protocol
resulted in a child
152
00:06:03,708 --> 00:06:06,448
that does not share
Miles McConnell's DNA,
153
00:06:06,536 --> 00:06:09,360
and could be prone to a host
of genetic anomalies
154
00:06:09,448 --> 00:06:11,081
that my clients
are not prepared for,
155
00:06:11,169 --> 00:06:13,606
an outcome for which
they paid over $400,000.
156
00:06:13,694 --> 00:06:15,913
Or we could just go to court.
157
00:06:16,159 --> 00:06:17,917
But let's be honest.
158
00:06:18,109 --> 00:06:20,378
We all know the clinic
doesn't want this to become
159
00:06:20,466 --> 00:06:21,642
an ugly public trial.
160
00:06:22,387 --> 00:06:23,738
Win, lose or draw,
161
00:06:23,826 --> 00:06:26,159
it's gonna irreparably tarnish
their reputation.
162
00:06:26,381 --> 00:06:28,503
And most likely,
kill their business.
163
00:06:29,088 --> 00:06:30,269
Give me a number.
164
00:06:30,357 --> 00:06:32,228
I would say reimbursing
the McConnells
165
00:06:32,316 --> 00:06:33,886
their entire $400,000
166
00:06:33,974 --> 00:06:36,855
and adding another 400,000
for pain and suffering
167
00:06:36,943 --> 00:06:38,554
would be a fair number,
wouldn't you?
168
00:06:38,954 --> 00:06:41,503
I'm not authorized
to go above 400,000.
169
00:06:41,813 --> 00:06:43,027
Well, then, we have a problem,
170
00:06:43,115 --> 00:06:45,051
because I'm not authorized
to accept less than a million.
171
00:06:45,138 --> 00:06:47,323
Wait a second.
You just said 800,000.
172
00:06:47,411 --> 00:06:48,808
Yes. That was
two minutes ago.
173
00:06:48,896 --> 00:06:50,192
And now
I said a million.
174
00:06:50,280 --> 00:06:52,370
And in another two minutes,
I'm gonna say a million five.
175
00:06:52,457 --> 00:06:54,067
Are you sensing
the pattern here?
176
00:06:54,180 --> 00:06:55,355
Let me make a call.
177
00:06:55,443 --> 00:06:57,271
You make a call.
178
00:07:01,992 --> 00:07:04,333
Uh, f-four hundred thousand
would honestly plenty.
179
00:07:04,421 --> 00:07:06,786
That doesn't even get you out
of the financial hole you're in.
180
00:07:06,873 --> 00:07:09,223
B-But it helps. I mean,
we should just take it.
181
00:07:09,325 --> 00:07:10,458
Yeah.
182
00:07:10,546 --> 00:07:12,256
Benny, would you explain
to our clients
183
00:07:12,344 --> 00:07:13,521
how the game is played?
184
00:07:13,609 --> 00:07:15,599
Mm.
You know the only thing better
185
00:07:15,687 --> 00:07:17,297
than a six-figure settlement?
186
00:07:19,115 --> 00:07:20,420
A million dollars.
187
00:07:20,507 --> 00:07:22,527
I... I don't think
my brain can count that high.
188
00:07:22,956 --> 00:07:24,331
Taylor, thank you.
189
00:07:24,614 --> 00:07:25,771
And thank you both.
190
00:07:25,859 --> 00:07:26,881
It's our pleasure.
191
00:07:26,969 --> 00:07:29,295
Oh, any friends of Taylor's
are friends of ours.
192
00:07:29,467 --> 00:07:31,443
Are you Miles?
Miles McConnell?
193
00:07:31,577 --> 00:07:33,365
Yeah, maybe.
Who's asking?
194
00:07:33,770 --> 00:07:35,380
You've been served.
195
00:07:39,588 --> 00:07:40,872
What is it?
196
00:07:40,960 --> 00:07:42,654
Mind if I take a look at it?
197
00:07:46,521 --> 00:07:48,170
It's a paternity petition
198
00:07:48,258 --> 00:07:50,216
from a man named
Roderick Walton.
199
00:07:52,017 --> 00:07:53,256
Okay, what does this mean?
200
00:07:53,843 --> 00:07:55,084
It means he believes
201
00:07:55,172 --> 00:07:56,513
he's your son's
biological father,
202
00:07:56,601 --> 00:07:58,396
and he's suing you
for custody.

*BULL (2016)*
Season 04 Episode 13
204
00:08:04,107 --> 00:08:06,803
*BULL (2016)*
Episode Title: "Child of Mine"
205
00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:11,396
All rise.
206
00:08:16,076 --> 00:08:18,537
In the matter of
Walton v. McConnell,
207
00:08:18,929 --> 00:08:21,627
in light of the recent
paternity test,
208
00:08:22,084 --> 00:08:24,754
there can be no doubt
that Mr. Roderick Walton
209
00:08:24,842 --> 00:08:26,810
is indeed the biological father
210
00:08:26,898 --> 00:08:28,639
of Joseph Patrick McConnell.
211
00:08:29,201 --> 00:08:30,498
Therefore,
212
00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,607
Mr. Walton does have
a legal claim to the child.
213
00:08:35,096 --> 00:08:37,033
I have to say
I have never encountered
214
00:08:37,121 --> 00:08:39,193
a situation like this before.
215
00:08:40,131 --> 00:08:41,832
Under the circumstances,
216
00:08:41,920 --> 00:08:45,238
it would be my strenuous
recommendation that both parties
217
00:08:45,326 --> 00:08:46,621
and their counsel
meet with me
218
00:08:46,709 --> 00:08:48,347
in chambers
to discuss
219
00:08:48,435 --> 00:08:49,786
a joint custody resolution.
220
00:08:49,873 --> 00:08:51,933
Your Honor,
just to be clear,
221
00:08:52,021 --> 00:08:54,644
as the only parents
this child has ever known,
222
00:08:54,732 --> 00:08:57,472
the McConnells believe
it is their right and duty
223
00:08:57,560 --> 00:08:58,691
to retain
sole custody.
224
00:08:58,779 --> 00:09:02,224
Your Honor, also in
the interest of clarity,
225
00:09:02,599 --> 00:09:04,795
my clients believe
it is their right
226
00:09:04,943 --> 00:09:08,207
and their duty to demand
full custody as well.
227
00:09:08,295 --> 00:09:10,722
I beg your pardon, but
I gave birth to this baby.
228
00:09:10,810 --> 00:09:12,793
Benny's got this. It's okay.
229
00:09:12,982 --> 00:09:14,769
Your Honor, my client,
230
00:09:14,857 --> 00:09:17,881
Elisabeth McConnell,
carried Joseph for nine months.
231
00:09:18,310 --> 00:09:19,772
They shared a heartbeat.
She birthed him.
232
00:09:19,859 --> 00:09:22,129
She's been nursing him
233
00:09:22,217 --> 00:09:24,302
- since the day he was born.
- Your Honor,
234
00:09:24,522 --> 00:09:26,332
my wife and I wish
235
00:09:26,420 --> 00:09:28,694
we had had all of
those experiences.
236
00:09:29,211 --> 00:09:30,769
The pregnancy,
the birth,
237
00:09:30,857 --> 00:09:33,607
the months of sleepless
unconditional love.
238
00:09:34,552 --> 00:09:36,020
But Samara and I didn't
even know we had a son
239
00:09:36,107 --> 00:09:37,399
until last week.
240
00:09:37,920 --> 00:09:40,269
And I'll be damned if
we're going to be enjoined
241
00:09:40,357 --> 00:09:41,505
from missing any
more of his life.
242
00:09:41,592 --> 00:09:43,427
Your Honor,
if can just finish what...
243
00:09:44,185 --> 00:09:47,123
Mr. and Mrs. Walton,
do you have any other children?
244
00:09:47,670 --> 00:09:49,411
No, Your Honor. No.
245
00:09:49,998 --> 00:09:53,599
Roderick and I have tried
for years to conceive.
246
00:09:54,068 --> 00:09:58,490
We've had 12 rounds
of in-vitro fertilization.
247
00:09:59,498 --> 00:10:03,816
I've suffered miscarriage
after miscarriage.
248
00:10:04,817 --> 00:10:06,435
It was soul crushing.
249
00:10:08,137 --> 00:10:10,162
So when we discovered
250
00:10:10,739 --> 00:10:13,404
that there was a baby
in this world
251
00:10:13,670 --> 00:10:16,529
that is
biologically Roderick's,
252
00:10:16,842 --> 00:10:19,248
we knew that
we had to raise him.
253
00:10:20,271 --> 00:10:22,279
And I need
to ask you this again:
254
00:10:22,638 --> 00:10:24,246
You would not be willing
255
00:10:24,334 --> 00:10:27,099
to entertain
a split custody arrangement?
256
00:10:27,607 --> 00:10:29,913
No offense to
the McConnells,
257
00:10:30,692 --> 00:10:33,373
but they're complete
strangers to us.
258
00:10:33,982 --> 00:10:35,630
This is my son.
259
00:10:36,317 --> 00:10:39,754
And we have no desire to raise
him with complete strangers.
260
00:10:42,052 --> 00:10:45,310
Since both sides are refusing
to entertain a resolution,
261
00:10:45,473 --> 00:10:48,060
I'm forced to schedule
a custody hearing.
262
00:10:48,396 --> 00:10:51,674
In addition, I'm going to
appoint a guardian ad litem
263
00:10:51,762 --> 00:10:54,049
to investigate both
sets of parents.
264
00:10:54,214 --> 00:10:56,387
That guardian,
Michele Downey,
265
00:10:56,497 --> 00:10:58,057
will then issue a recommendation
266
00:10:58,145 --> 00:11:00,965
regarding what would be in
the best interest of the child.
267
00:11:01,645 --> 00:11:03,971
For now, the McConnells
will retain custody...
268
00:11:05,309 --> 00:11:07,080
..but I'm granting
Mr. Walton
269
00:11:07,168 --> 00:11:09,213
temporary
court-monitored visitation
270
00:11:09,301 --> 00:11:10,887
for one hour a day.
271
00:11:11,192 --> 00:11:12,614
If it please the court,
272
00:11:12,801 --> 00:11:17,262
my client is requesting, uh,
the first visitation be today.
273
00:11:19,067 --> 00:11:22,364
Well, since Ms. Downey
is already on the premises,
274
00:11:22,452 --> 00:11:23,900
I don't see why not.
275
00:11:25,051 --> 00:11:27,588
Why didn't you fight harder
in there?
276
00:11:27,676 --> 00:11:29,495
Visitation in-in
five minutes?
277
00:11:29,583 --> 00:11:32,035
How in God's name can I be
expected to hand my child over
278
00:11:32,122 --> 00:11:33,428
to a s... complete stranger?
279
00:11:34,325 --> 00:11:34,864
He needs to eat soon,
280
00:11:34,951 --> 00:11:36,901
and he just doesn't take
a bottle from anyone.
281
00:11:36,989 --> 00:11:38,998
Can we go back
and appeal it?
282
00:11:39,184 --> 00:11:41,784
In custody cases,
there is no jury.
283
00:11:42,083 --> 00:11:45,205
It's all about the judge.
She has the final say.
284
00:11:45,293 --> 00:11:46,739
She has the only say.
285
00:11:47,066 --> 00:11:48,158
Trust me,
286
00:11:48,434 --> 00:11:52,550
that judge is focusing
on each party's reasonableness
287
00:11:52,638 --> 00:11:54,684
and willingness
to follow court orders.
288
00:11:54,771 --> 00:11:56,294
It would just be
a huge mistake
289
00:11:56,381 --> 00:11:58,557
to use our capital
trying to appeal
290
00:11:58,644 --> 00:12:01,252
the very first thing
the judge made a decision on.
291
00:12:01,340 --> 00:12:02,648
We need to play
the long game here.
292
00:12:02,735 --> 00:12:04,666
And you need to be
as cordial as possible
293
00:12:04,754 --> 00:12:06,497
going into this visitation.
294
00:12:06,704 --> 00:12:08,114
Don't even think
295
00:12:08,202 --> 00:12:11,831
about trying to manipulate your
son into not liking Roderick.
296
00:12:11,919 --> 00:12:13,442
Don't try
and squeeze him too tight
297
00:12:13,529 --> 00:12:15,792
or cue him to be scared
in any way.
298
00:12:15,879 --> 00:12:18,401
The guardian ad litem
is gonna be watching you
299
00:12:18,489 --> 00:12:19,778
very closely,
300
00:12:19,866 --> 00:12:22,347
and you don't want her to think
that you are trying to sway
301
00:12:22,435 --> 00:12:24,731
your child emotionally.
302
00:12:25,498 --> 00:12:28,942
I promise you,
they will hold that against you.
303
00:12:32,203 --> 00:12:35,075
You have my word, you'll have
your baby back in an hour.
304
00:12:48,184 --> 00:12:52,059
It's, uh, it's his feeding time,
so he might be a little fussy.
305
00:12:52,147 --> 00:12:53,540
Hey.
Yeah.
306
00:12:53,750 --> 00:12:55,176
It helps
if you angle it.
307
00:12:55,876 --> 00:12:57,661
Got it. Thank you.
308
00:12:58,139 --> 00:13:00,184
Hey, Joseph.
309
00:13:00,719 --> 00:13:02,895
Hey, it's me. Huh?
310
00:13:03,774 --> 00:13:05,141
It's your daddy. Huh?
311
00:13:08,226 --> 00:13:09,594
God.
312
00:13:10,113 --> 00:13:11,524
Hey.
313
00:13:13,525 --> 00:13:14,831
Hey.
314
00:13:19,769 --> 00:13:20,829
Ms. Downey,
315
00:13:20,917 --> 00:13:23,061
I understand you did
an extensive investigation
316
00:13:23,149 --> 00:13:24,436
into both sets
of parents.
317
00:13:24,524 --> 00:13:25,514
I did, Your Honor.
318
00:13:25,601 --> 00:13:26,776
And what can you tell me?
319
00:13:26,863 --> 00:13:28,469
So the judge
can ask questions?
320
00:13:28,588 --> 00:13:31,577
Any time she wants.
Remember, there's no jury.
321
00:13:31,665 --> 00:13:33,274
She's the whole
ball of wax.
322
00:13:33,412 --> 00:13:35,201
I feel I have a clear sense
323
00:13:35,289 --> 00:13:37,876
of both the McConnells
and the Waltons.
324
00:13:38,138 --> 00:13:41,402
I'll be honest,
this is a difficult situation.
325
00:13:42,274 --> 00:13:44,618
I believe both couples
are good people
326
00:13:44,706 --> 00:13:46,251
and would be
fit parents,
327
00:13:46,881 --> 00:13:49,850
but since both families
are fighting for sole custody,
328
00:13:49,938 --> 00:13:51,725
it falls to me
to make an assessment
329
00:13:51,813 --> 00:13:54,297
based on who's better
for the baby long-term.
330
00:13:54,385 --> 00:13:55,934
And have you come
to a conclusion?
331
00:13:56,022 --> 00:13:57,438
I have.
332
00:13:57,588 --> 00:14:00,946
I have taken lots of factors
into consideration, Your Honor.
333
00:14:01,036 --> 00:14:04,769
Uh, we use a combination of
criteria to make this decision.
334
00:14:04,857 --> 00:14:06,266
The primary three are
335
00:14:06,354 --> 00:14:08,269
the parents'
emotional stability,
336
00:14:08,357 --> 00:14:11,266
the parents' physical ability
to raise the child,
337
00:14:11,360 --> 00:14:13,474
and the parents'
employment history
338
00:14:13,562 --> 00:14:15,790
and financial ability
to care for the child.
339
00:14:16,349 --> 00:14:18,420
With regards to the
first two criteria,
340
00:14:18,508 --> 00:14:22,049
the two families are clearly
both more than up to the task.
341
00:14:22,305 --> 00:14:23,461
That leaves us
342
00:14:23,549 --> 00:14:25,180
with the third criteria.
343
00:14:26,314 --> 00:14:29,143
These are photos of the nursery
the Waltons have set up
344
00:14:29,230 --> 00:14:32,415
in their home in anticipation
of Joseph's arrival.
345
00:14:32,712 --> 00:14:35,438
And here are photos
of the McConnells'
346
00:14:35,526 --> 00:14:38,169
one-bedroom apartment
and the current accommodations
347
00:14:38,257 --> 00:14:40,215
they've set up
for baby Joseph.
348
00:14:40,545 --> 00:14:42,709
As you can see,
at the present time,
349
00:14:42,797 --> 00:14:45,246
parents and child
share a single bedroom.
350
00:14:45,438 --> 00:14:47,422
Uh, in and of itself,
not at all
351
00:14:47,509 --> 00:14:49,586
an unusual
or undesirable arrangement,
352
00:14:49,681 --> 00:14:51,711
particularly
at Joseph's young age.
353
00:14:52,601 --> 00:14:55,001
With regard
to the child's education,
354
00:14:55,594 --> 00:14:58,085
the Walton family has already
secured Joseph a spot
355
00:14:58,172 --> 00:15:00,696
at the prestigious
Hurstview Academy,
356
00:15:01,344 --> 00:15:03,047
while at
the present time,
357
00:15:03,341 --> 00:15:05,787
the McConnells
have not yet explored
358
00:15:05,875 --> 00:15:07,877
educational possibilities
for Joseph
359
00:15:08,126 --> 00:15:11,618
outside the public school
options in their neighborhood.
360
00:15:11,814 --> 00:15:14,900
Again, in and of itself,
not at all an unusual
361
00:15:14,988 --> 00:15:18,409
or unexpected answer
given Joseph's young age.
362
00:15:18,497 --> 00:15:20,071
Are we gonna be
okay here?
363
00:15:20,418 --> 00:15:22,813
- Any questions for the guardian?
- Yes, Your Honor.
364
00:15:22,979 --> 00:15:25,672
Uh, Ms. Downey, I'm curious,
365
00:15:25,847 --> 00:15:29,071
are you familiar with
the studies that have been done
366
00:15:29,159 --> 00:15:31,415
on reactive
attachment disorder?
367
00:15:31,585 --> 00:15:35,610
Uh, studies that were conducted
to determine the effects
368
00:15:35,698 --> 00:15:38,094
on an infant child
when it is ripped
369
00:15:38,182 --> 00:15:41,860
from its primary caregivers
during its first year of life?
370
00:15:41,948 --> 00:15:44,298
Yes. I am very aware
of those studies.
371
00:15:44,507 --> 00:15:46,640
I'm also aware of studies
that demonstrate
372
00:15:46,728 --> 00:15:50,086
that when an infant is placed
in a loving, stable home,
373
00:15:50,399 --> 00:15:52,563
the likelihood
of the child experiencing
374
00:15:52,651 --> 00:15:55,141
reactive attachment disorder
is slim to none.
375
00:15:55,244 --> 00:15:57,023
This woman is not
on our side.
376
00:15:57,133 --> 00:15:58,406
But at the very least,
377
00:15:58,493 --> 00:16:01,430
you would concede that it can be
a stressor on the child,
378
00:16:01,518 --> 00:16:02,618
can it not?
379
00:16:02,706 --> 00:16:05,376
I know that one of the biggest
stressors on a family
380
00:16:05,464 --> 00:16:06,813
and a child is whether or not
381
00:16:06,907 --> 00:16:08,704
the parents
are financially stable.
382
00:16:09,141 --> 00:16:11,680
And the fact is the McConnells'
financial situation
383
00:16:11,768 --> 00:16:13,141
over the past ten years
384
00:16:13,229 --> 00:16:17,469
has been, well,
uncertain at best.
385
00:16:17,946 --> 00:16:19,368
In fact,
just two months ago,
386
00:16:19,456 --> 00:16:21,547
they were over half
a million dollars in debt.
387
00:16:21,635 --> 00:16:23,493
They had to borrow money
for diapers
388
00:16:23,581 --> 00:16:25,313
and an antibiotic
for the child.
389
00:16:25,501 --> 00:16:27,165
It was only
their recent settlement
390
00:16:27,253 --> 00:16:28,845
with the fertility clinic
that pulled them out
391
00:16:28,932 --> 00:16:30,282
of their dire financial straits.
392
00:16:30,370 --> 00:16:33,086
Be that as it may, Ms. Downey,
I hope you're not poised
393
00:16:33,181 --> 00:16:36,182
to make judgement
based simply on the fact
394
00:16:36,270 --> 00:16:38,524
that one family
has more money than the other.
395
00:16:38,612 --> 00:16:40,821
Mr. Colón, let's not argue over
396
00:16:40,909 --> 00:16:42,913
the guardian's judgment
until she renders one.
397
00:16:43,001 --> 00:16:44,016
And with that in mind,
398
00:16:44,103 --> 00:16:45,192
Ms. Downey,
399
00:16:45,279 --> 00:16:47,618
are you prepared
to make a recommendation?
400
00:16:49,302 --> 00:16:51,876
Honestly, I cannot say
401
00:16:51,964 --> 00:16:53,790
either family is unfit.
402
00:16:55,297 --> 00:16:56,551
But if forced
403
00:16:56,638 --> 00:16:59,219
to make a recommendation
between the two,
404
00:16:59,960 --> 00:17:01,930
I would recommend the Waltons.
405
00:17:12,738 --> 00:17:14,551
It's okay.
We're not done.
406
00:17:14,639 --> 00:17:16,188
It's not over.
407
00:17:21,353 --> 00:17:24,055
Why are you seeking
full custody of your son?
408
00:17:25,219 --> 00:17:29,641
My son is currently
a three-month-old baby.
409
00:17:30,313 --> 00:17:32,059
But in the blink
of an eye,
410
00:17:32,146 --> 00:17:33,166
he'll be a six-year-old boy.
411
00:17:33,253 --> 00:17:35,908
And one day, he'll be
a 16-year-old young black man.
412
00:17:37,633 --> 00:17:40,617
And that
young black man
413
00:17:41,110 --> 00:17:43,844
is going to need someone
who knows how to guide him.
414
00:17:45,071 --> 00:17:47,055
Someone to give him "the talk."
415
00:17:48,141 --> 00:17:49,729
Someone who knows
how to show him
416
00:17:49,860 --> 00:17:52,852
exactly what to do with his
hands when he gets pulled over.
417
00:17:53,876 --> 00:17:56,709
Someone to bring him into the
police station and introduce him
418
00:17:56,797 --> 00:17:58,930
to the local police
so they know his name.
419
00:18:01,929 --> 00:18:04,148
Do the McConnells know
they need to do that?
420
00:18:04,654 --> 00:18:06,046
Do they even know how
421
00:18:06,235 --> 00:18:07,704
to do that?
422
00:18:08,457 --> 00:18:09,545
I doubt it.
423
00:18:09,633 --> 00:18:10,764
Objection.
424
00:18:10,852 --> 00:18:13,959
Your Honor, this is
an unfair and misleading
425
00:18:14,047 --> 00:18:15,329
characterization.
426
00:18:15,885 --> 00:18:17,887
Mr. Walton, I need you
427
00:18:17,974 --> 00:18:19,074
to stick to facts.
428
00:18:19,162 --> 00:18:20,508
Yes, Your Honor.
429
00:18:21,152 --> 00:18:23,211
The reality is
430
00:18:24,649 --> 00:18:27,467
this child is going to have
a piece of his identity
431
00:18:27,555 --> 00:18:29,040
that he wears.
432
00:18:29,641 --> 00:18:32,205
All the time.
There's no hiding it.
433
00:18:32,688 --> 00:18:34,084
And as much
as we'd like to believe
434
00:18:34,172 --> 00:18:36,774
this world is color-blind, we
all know that just isn't true.
435
00:18:38,297 --> 00:18:41,577
What is true is that this world
436
00:18:41,665 --> 00:18:44,555
is a complicated place
437
00:18:44,876 --> 00:18:47,830
for a biracial child,
a biracial teen.
438
00:18:48,391 --> 00:18:51,024
A biracial man.
439
00:18:52,452 --> 00:18:54,672
It's tough
to find your way.
440
00:18:55,843 --> 00:18:59,413
And Joseph is going to need
his biological father
441
00:18:59,524 --> 00:19:02,868
to help him navigate.
He just is.
442
00:19:03,610 --> 00:19:04,697
Do you have anything else
443
00:19:04,784 --> 00:19:06,351
you want to share
with the court?
444
00:19:07,938 --> 00:19:09,061
I would like
445
00:19:09,149 --> 00:19:10,407
the court to know
446
00:19:11,196 --> 00:19:15,945
that I was raised
by a strong, loving father.
447
00:19:16,149 --> 00:19:17,907
As was my father
before me.
448
00:19:20,579 --> 00:19:24,376
And I'll be damned if I am
going to turn my back on my son
449
00:19:24,643 --> 00:19:28,758
and perpetuate the stereotype
of the absentee black father.
450
00:19:30,340 --> 00:19:33,008
I have no further questions
for this witness.
451
00:19:40,318 --> 00:19:41,555
Good morning, Mr. Walton.
452
00:19:41,680 --> 00:19:43,350
Now, yesterday
we heard all about
453
00:19:43,438 --> 00:19:46,696
your impressive success
in the business world,
454
00:19:46,835 --> 00:19:49,991
your considerable
financial resources.
455
00:19:50,079 --> 00:19:53,241
But that must come at a cost,
does it not?
456
00:19:53,329 --> 00:19:55,290
I suppose everything
comes at a cost.
457
00:19:55,378 --> 00:19:56,855
How many hours a week
458
00:19:56,943 --> 00:19:59,381
would you estimate
that you and your wife work?
459
00:19:59,469 --> 00:20:04,172
If I had to put a number on it,
I'd say probably 60 hours.
460
00:20:04,282 --> 00:20:06,126
Each? Yes.
461
00:20:06,477 --> 00:20:08,128
Again, that's
an approximation.
462
00:20:08,215 --> 00:20:10,782
A lot of that work happens at
home on laptops and telephones.
463
00:20:10,870 --> 00:20:13,969
Mm. And do you work
on the weekends?
464
00:20:14,387 --> 00:20:15,828
Sometimes.
465
00:20:15,916 --> 00:20:17,874
Your Honor, I can assure you,
that will change
466
00:20:17,962 --> 00:20:19,813
once we have
custody of our son.
467
00:20:20,106 --> 00:20:22,764
Mm. Will it, though?
468
00:20:23,313 --> 00:20:24,346
Isn't it true
469
00:20:24,449 --> 00:20:27,186
that you've already begun
interviewing nannies?
470
00:20:27,274 --> 00:20:29,280
Night nurses?
Weekend nannies?
471
00:20:29,368 --> 00:20:31,353
Just because my
wife and I work long hours,
472
00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:34,149
that doesn't mean we aren't
going to be hands-on parents.
473
00:20:34,625 --> 00:20:37,185
That's how my parents raised me,
and I was all the better for it.
474
00:20:37,486 --> 00:20:39,657
I learned the value
of a strong work ethic.
475
00:20:39,774 --> 00:20:41,074
The value of a job well done.
476
00:20:41,251 --> 00:20:42,510
Maybe so,
477
00:20:42,829 --> 00:20:45,513
but... it's feeling like
478
00:20:45,600 --> 00:20:48,665
you're preparing
to outsource your parenting,
479
00:20:49,352 --> 00:20:51,774
when this child already has two
480
00:20:51,960 --> 00:20:55,202
wonderful,
loving, hands-on,
481
00:20:55,290 --> 00:20:56,774
full-time parents.
482
00:20:57,262 --> 00:20:58,852
Miles and Elisabeth McConnell.
483
00:20:58,940 --> 00:21:00,660
Two parents who don't understand
the first thing
484
00:21:00,747 --> 00:21:03,054
about raising a black child.
485
00:21:03,984 --> 00:21:06,227
Might I point
out, Mr. Walton,
486
00:21:06,391 --> 00:21:09,233
that white parents
successfully raise black
487
00:21:09,320 --> 00:21:10,843
and biracial children
all the time.
488
00:21:10,930 --> 00:21:12,696
That's your opinion, sir.
489
00:21:16,032 --> 00:21:18,008
I have no further questions,
Your Honor.
490
00:21:20,563 --> 00:21:22,071
What do you think?
491
00:21:23,243 --> 00:21:25,510
Reading a judge isn't the same
as reading a jury,
492
00:21:25,597 --> 00:21:28,366
but, while Mr. Walton
was a compelling witness,
493
00:21:28,454 --> 00:21:30,360
I think he did himself
as much harm as good.
494
00:21:30,471 --> 00:21:33,040
They rested their case.
It's our turn now.
495
00:21:33,128 --> 00:21:34,797
You still want to stick
with the plan?
496
00:21:35,172 --> 00:21:37,399
Call Elisabeth as
our first witness?
497
00:21:38,023 --> 00:21:39,372
No.
498
00:21:39,828 --> 00:21:41,395
I think we need
to remind the judge
499
00:21:41,482 --> 00:21:43,528
that this baby
already has a father.
500
00:21:45,246 --> 00:21:47,868
Those first moments
in the delivery room,
501
00:21:48,133 --> 00:21:50,169
when you realized
you probably didn't
502
00:21:50,274 --> 00:21:52,297
share DNA with your son,
503
00:21:53,579 --> 00:21:55,032
how did you respond?
504
00:21:55,227 --> 00:21:57,821
I was shocked.
I was surprised.
505
00:21:58,750 --> 00:22:00,930
When I was
holding Joseph,
506
00:22:01,663 --> 00:22:03,622
and the way
he was looking at me,
507
00:22:03,724 --> 00:22:05,352
his helplessness...
508
00:22:05,526 --> 00:22:08,312
At that point, I stopped
thinking about DNA,
509
00:22:08,814 --> 00:22:10,258
biology, all that.
510
00:22:10,903 --> 00:22:14,623
I just thought,
"I'm gonna make the best life
511
00:22:14,711 --> 00:22:16,266
"I possibly can for you,
512
00:22:17,230 --> 00:22:20,363
because I'm your father,
and you're my child."
513
00:22:21,750 --> 00:22:22,958
I know it's
514
00:22:23,045 --> 00:22:25,493
a hokey expression,
but I really do believe
515
00:22:26,750 --> 00:22:28,899
God doesn't throw you
more than you can handle.
516
00:22:29,005 --> 00:22:30,774
So you went
about doing that?
517
00:22:31,827 --> 00:22:33,533
Making the best life
for your son?
518
00:22:33,621 --> 00:22:35,047
I'm sure trying.
519
00:22:37,755 --> 00:22:39,289
He's got colic, you know,
520
00:22:39,493 --> 00:22:41,086
so we're up a
lot of nights.
521
00:22:41,552 --> 00:22:43,664
But no matter
how tired I get,
522
00:22:44,391 --> 00:22:46,813
once he finally finds
his way to sleep,
523
00:22:47,321 --> 00:22:51,454
I stay up a little while
longer and just watch
524
00:22:52,352 --> 00:22:53,859
and smile.
525
00:22:54,875 --> 00:22:56,347
Because he's mine.
526
00:22:58,461 --> 00:22:59,789
I don't know.
It's, uh...
527
00:23:04,188 --> 00:23:06,349
It's the way he looks at me
first thing in the morning.
528
00:23:07,399 --> 00:23:09,423
Yeah, it's...
529
00:23:09,719 --> 00:23:11,407
He knows who I am.
530
00:23:13,139 --> 00:23:16,836
It's got nothing
to do with DNA.
531
00:23:18,196 --> 00:23:20,039
He knows
he can count on me.
532
00:23:22,125 --> 00:23:23,688
He knows I'm Dad.
533
00:23:26,508 --> 00:23:27,938
Nothing further, Your Honor.
534
00:23:31,188 --> 00:23:32,797
He was a good witness,
wasn't he?
535
00:23:33,180 --> 00:23:34,201
So far.
536
00:23:34,344 --> 00:23:35,379
Mr. McConnell,
537
00:23:35,466 --> 00:23:38,844
can you tell the court
where you were last Tuesday
538
00:23:39,071 --> 00:23:40,246
at 4:00 p.m.?
539
00:23:41,863 --> 00:23:43,604
You know where
this is going?
540
00:23:44,096 --> 00:23:45,358
It's nothing.
541
00:23:45,914 --> 00:23:47,039
I had an appointment.
542
00:23:47,149 --> 00:23:49,289
Would you tell the court
what kind of appointment?
543
00:23:49,797 --> 00:23:50,780
A doctor's appointment.
544
00:23:50,868 --> 00:23:52,221
What kind of doctor,
Mr. McConnell?
545
00:23:52,308 --> 00:23:53,764
Objection, Your Honor.
546
00:23:53,852 --> 00:23:55,295
Counselor's badgering
the witness.
547
00:23:55,383 --> 00:23:57,717
Your Honor, there's a point
to this line of questioning,
548
00:23:57,805 --> 00:24:00,938
if the court would just afford
me a little more latitude.
549
00:24:02,007 --> 00:24:03,336
Objection overruled.
550
00:24:03,550 --> 00:24:05,500
The witness will answer
the question.
551
00:24:07,469 --> 00:24:08,805
A therapist.
552
00:24:09,829 --> 00:24:12,256
A behavioral therapist.
A psychologist.
553
00:24:12,344 --> 00:24:15,147
They must have hired a private
detective to follow him.
554
00:24:15,336 --> 00:24:17,141
Are you sure there's
nothing I need to know?
555
00:24:17,696 --> 00:24:20,287
- No. It's all good.
- And may I ask
556
00:24:20,375 --> 00:24:22,860
how long you've been
seeing this therapist?
557
00:24:24,211 --> 00:24:25,459
Almost four years.
558
00:24:25,547 --> 00:24:27,172
And can you
tell the court
559
00:24:27,297 --> 00:24:30,912
what compelled you to
seek the services of a therapist?
560
00:24:30,999 --> 00:24:32,834
Your Honor, counsel is on
561
00:24:32,922 --> 00:24:34,307
a fishing expedition here.
562
00:24:34,633 --> 00:24:39,045
A, we were unaware of any effort
on the plaintiff's part
563
00:24:39,133 --> 00:24:42,162
to request my client's
private psychiatric records;
564
00:24:42,250 --> 00:24:45,561
and, B, seeking the services
of a licensed therapist
565
00:24:45,649 --> 00:24:47,334
is something millions of people,
566
00:24:47,453 --> 00:24:50,282
many of them parents,
do day in and day out.
567
00:24:50,828 --> 00:24:52,045
Counselor,
568
00:24:52,133 --> 00:24:53,639
I need you
to ask a question
569
00:24:53,727 --> 00:24:55,264
that ties
Mr. McConnell's therapy
570
00:24:55,352 --> 00:24:57,156
to the questions
at hand here today,
571
00:24:57,532 --> 00:24:59,039
or change your line
of questioning.
572
00:24:59,134 --> 00:25:03,075
Of course, Your Honor.
I-I understand, Your Honor.
573
00:25:03,163 --> 00:25:05,826
Uh, but I do have
one last question
574
00:25:05,914 --> 00:25:07,147
that might make it apparent
575
00:25:07,235 --> 00:25:09,081
why I'm going
down this road.
576
00:25:11,477 --> 00:25:14,280
Mr. McConnell,
isn't it true that
577
00:25:14,368 --> 00:25:16,162
the therapist
you're working with is one
578
00:25:16,250 --> 00:25:20,313
that specializes in issues
involving anger management
579
00:25:20,807 --> 00:25:22,635
and temper control?
580
00:25:24,125 --> 00:25:25,561
Yes.
581
00:25:26,263 --> 00:25:27,664
Now I'm curious.
582
00:25:28,024 --> 00:25:30,024
Is this an issue for you
in your life?
583
00:25:30,648 --> 00:25:32,405
Your Honor, I sought treatment
584
00:25:32,493 --> 00:25:34,236
when we started trying
to have a baby.
585
00:25:34,330 --> 00:25:35,696
May I ask why?
586
00:25:38,545 --> 00:25:41,417
Growing up, my house
wasn't always...
587
00:25:44,246 --> 00:25:48,219
I don't know... my father
could be great some days.
588
00:25:49,704 --> 00:25:51,515
Sometimes his temper
got the best of him.
589
00:25:51,883 --> 00:25:54,399
And are we talking
about verbal abuse?
590
00:25:54,821 --> 00:25:57,664
Yelling, screaming,
abusive language?
591
00:25:58,968 --> 00:26:00,305
Not just that.
592
00:26:01,289 --> 00:26:02,782
So, physical abuse.
593
00:26:04,797 --> 00:26:06,007
Sometimes, yeah.
594
00:26:06,743 --> 00:26:08,532
Towards you?
595
00:26:09,071 --> 00:26:10,875
Your mother,
your siblings?
596
00:26:11,899 --> 00:26:13,258
Everyone in the house.
597
00:26:14,782 --> 00:26:16,975
So I wanted to talk to someone
598
00:26:17,516 --> 00:26:18,759
so I could be better
for my children.
599
00:26:18,846 --> 00:26:20,805
I didn't want the cycle
to continue.
600
00:26:21,305 --> 00:26:23,852
And did you have a reason
to think that it might?
601
00:26:24,179 --> 00:26:26,743
I guess I-I just didn't want
the cycle to continue.
602
00:26:29,071 --> 00:26:30,379
I'd never been
a father before.
603
00:26:30,579 --> 00:26:32,381
I didn't know
what to expect.
604
00:26:32,704 --> 00:26:34,601
- I wanted to get ahead of it.
- Your Honor,
605
00:26:34,757 --> 00:26:36,795
the fact that Mr. McConnell
was proactive
606
00:26:36,883 --> 00:26:38,873
out of an abundance
of caution means that
607
00:26:38,961 --> 00:26:43,006
he is a thoughtful, careful
and concerned father,
608
00:26:43,094 --> 00:26:44,243
not a dangerous one.
609
00:26:44,331 --> 00:26:46,029
I'm inclined to agree.
610
00:26:46,266 --> 00:26:48,485
- Are we through with this subject?
- Not quite.
611
00:26:48,797 --> 00:26:52,727
Mr. McConnell, have you ever
broken anything in anger?
612
00:26:56,099 --> 00:26:58,079
Sure. I suppose.
Who hasn't?
613
00:26:58,167 --> 00:27:00,155
Have you ever
yelled at a colleague,
614
00:27:00,243 --> 00:27:02,716
- - a neighbor, family member?
- Objection.
615
00:27:02,803 --> 00:27:05,850
Your Honor, counsel has
her fishing pole back out,
616
00:27:05,938 --> 00:27:07,623
in addition to
badgering the witness.
617
00:27:07,711 --> 00:27:09,039
Let's get to the point.
618
00:27:09,649 --> 00:27:11,467
Have you ever been asked
to leave a bar
619
00:27:11,555 --> 00:27:13,196
because you got in a fight?
620
00:27:17,775 --> 00:27:19,336
Mr. McConnell?
621
00:27:19,836 --> 00:27:21,391
Once.
622
00:27:22,118 --> 00:27:23,868
A long time ago,
when I was in college.
623
00:27:23,955 --> 00:27:25,235
Ever punch a hole in a wall?
624
00:27:25,323 --> 00:27:27,020
Your Honor, objection.
625
00:27:27,115 --> 00:27:31,092
What Mr. McConnell did
or did not do in college
626
00:27:31,180 --> 00:27:33,355
has little to do
with his ability to parent.
627
00:27:33,649 --> 00:27:34,780
If we were all judged
628
00:27:34,868 --> 00:27:37,319
- by what we did...
- Overruled, Mr. Colón.
629
00:27:37,407 --> 00:27:39,524
Mr. McConnell,
please answer the question.
630
00:27:42,422 --> 00:27:45,321
Mr. McConnell,
I'm waiting for an answer.
631
00:27:45,860 --> 00:27:48,153
Have you ever punched
a hole in a wall?
632
00:27:51,012 --> 00:27:52,664
I was 16.
633
00:27:55,696 --> 00:27:57,266
I'm a different
person now.
634
00:27:59,618 --> 00:28:01,709
I have worked on myself
635
00:28:01,797 --> 00:28:04,704
so I am not the
father that I had.
636
00:28:05,386 --> 00:28:08,868
I-I have worked on myself so
that this is never an issue.
637
00:28:08,956 --> 00:28:10,110
And are we just supposed
638
00:28:10,197 --> 00:28:11,719
to take your word for that?
639
00:28:12,501 --> 00:28:15,407
There's an infant's well-being
at stake here.
640
00:28:16,529 --> 00:28:20,233
You admit that you grew up
in an abusive household.
641
00:28:20,321 --> 00:28:21,959
You admit you're worried
642
00:28:22,047 --> 00:28:25,102
about continuing
the cycle of abuse.
643
00:28:26,563 --> 00:28:28,410
Shouldn't we be worried, too?
644
00:28:31,418 --> 00:28:32,618
Your Honor,
645
00:28:32,706 --> 00:28:35,852
is this really someone we should
be awarding custody to?
646
00:28:45,985 --> 00:28:47,421
Good morning.
647
00:28:50,670 --> 00:28:52,411
Can I get you
anything?
648
00:28:52,813 --> 00:28:54,039
My baby.
649
00:28:54,980 --> 00:28:58,944
Look, uh, I know this is
a pretty difficult time.
650
00:28:59,032 --> 00:29:00,268
What are you hearing?
651
00:29:01,808 --> 00:29:03,375
- It's not looking good, is it?
- Okay.
652
00:29:03,835 --> 00:29:05,336
We need to get
a few things straight.
653
00:29:05,637 --> 00:29:06,682
Okay?
654
00:29:06,832 --> 00:29:08,576
Testifying in a court of law,
655
00:29:08,664 --> 00:29:10,688
testifying like
you're gonna do tomorrow...
656
00:29:11,077 --> 00:29:12,153
It's a lot like
657
00:29:12,241 --> 00:29:14,358
riding a bike
on a winding road.
658
00:29:14,446 --> 00:29:17,610
You keep looking back,
you're destined to falter.
659
00:29:17,782 --> 00:29:18,944
We need you
660
00:29:19,032 --> 00:29:20,019
looking forward,
661
00:29:20,106 --> 00:29:23,219
eyes on where we're going
and what we want.
662
00:29:24,500 --> 00:29:26,125
Divorce papers.
663
00:29:27,164 --> 00:29:29,219
Elisabeth,
you filed for divorce?
664
00:29:29,429 --> 00:29:32,032
Y-Yeah, a while ago.
665
00:29:32,493 --> 00:29:35,047
Why wouldn't you tell us
something like this?
666
00:29:35,164 --> 00:29:36,531
Why wouldn't you
tell mesomething like this?
667
00:29:36,618 --> 00:29:37,826
How'd you find out?
668
00:29:37,914 --> 00:29:39,693
It's a matter of public record.
669
00:29:39,781 --> 00:29:42,110
Really? Wow.
670
00:29:42,359 --> 00:29:43,994
I-I mean, it's not like
I went through with it.
671
00:29:44,081 --> 00:29:47,139
I pulled those forms less than
an hour after I filed them.
672
00:29:47,227 --> 00:29:48,782
Miles doesn't even know.
673
00:29:50,265 --> 00:29:53,391
I-I was going through
a crazy time, emotionally.
674
00:29:54,096 --> 00:29:55,751
D-Do you think
the other side knows?
675
00:29:55,839 --> 00:29:58,118
If the other side found out
about your husband
676
00:29:58,206 --> 00:29:59,264
seeing a therapist,
677
00:29:59,352 --> 00:30:01,321
then they definitely
know about this.
678
00:30:01,539 --> 00:30:03,453
We need to talk to Bull
and Benny so that we can
679
00:30:03,540 --> 00:30:05,545
all figure out how we're
gonna get ahead of this.
680
00:30:05,633 --> 00:30:07,600
And before
any of that happens,
681
00:30:07,688 --> 00:30:09,951
you need to tell your husband;
you need to tell Miles.
682
00:30:10,039 --> 00:30:11,920
This is not something
you want him to hear about
683
00:30:12,008 --> 00:30:13,550
for the first time in court.
684
00:30:15,244 --> 00:30:18,075
I've always wanted
to be a mother, and Miles has
685
00:30:18,163 --> 00:30:19,516
always wanted
to be a father.
686
00:30:19,604 --> 00:30:22,014
It's just always been
part of the plan.
687
00:30:22,102 --> 00:30:23,813
That's why we never gave up.
688
00:30:23,994 --> 00:30:27,274
Even after all
the disappointments.
689
00:30:28,993 --> 00:30:31,046
And then suddenly it takes,
690
00:30:31,133 --> 00:30:33,172
and I'm pregnant again.
691
00:30:34,038 --> 00:30:39,039
Two months, three months,
and I'm-I'm still carrying him.
692
00:30:40,244 --> 00:30:43,881
Ultrasounds and
listening to heartbeats,
693
00:30:43,969 --> 00:30:46,641
and I'm-I'm still carrying him.
694
00:30:48,493 --> 00:30:49,944
Seven months,
eight months,
695
00:30:50,032 --> 00:30:52,662
and-and they keep telling me
that he's healthy,
696
00:30:52,750 --> 00:30:54,461
that-that I'm healthy.
697
00:30:54,548 --> 00:30:56,725
And I-I keep waiting
for a pain,
698
00:30:56,813 --> 00:30:58,508
for something to go wrong
in the middle of the night,
699
00:30:58,595 --> 00:31:01,806
but... but it doesn't.
700
00:31:02,686 --> 00:31:03,970
And then
701
00:31:04,380 --> 00:31:06,339
they wheel me into
that delivery room,
702
00:31:06,473 --> 00:31:07,704
and I realize...
703
00:31:08,993 --> 00:31:10,970
I'm about to give birth.
704
00:31:11,608 --> 00:31:13,219
Oh, my God.
705
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:16,892
And he's perfect.
706
00:31:19,665 --> 00:31:21,282
Better than perfect.
707
00:31:22,712 --> 00:31:24,447
And he's ours.
708
00:31:25,862 --> 00:31:27,428
Mrs. McConnell,
709
00:31:27,993 --> 00:31:30,431
did you file divorce papers
a year ago?
710
00:31:31,884 --> 00:31:33,065
I sure did.
711
00:31:33,759 --> 00:31:35,154
Filed in one
Tuesday afternoon
712
00:31:35,241 --> 00:31:38,766
at 2:00, asked if
I could have them back
713
00:31:38,853 --> 00:31:41,415
so I could rip them up
a little before 3:00.
714
00:31:42,243 --> 00:31:44,163
Sounds a little irrational.
715
00:31:45,123 --> 00:31:47,360
"Little" is kind.
716
00:31:48,404 --> 00:31:50,232
IVF, you know.
717
00:31:50,430 --> 00:31:54,173
I'd been taking hormones on
and off for years at that point.
718
00:31:54,367 --> 00:31:56,509
I-I wasn't myself.
719
00:31:57,618 --> 00:32:01,382
Things had become
tense and stressful at home.
720
00:32:01,470 --> 00:32:04,314
We were going broke
trying to get pregnant.
721
00:32:05,353 --> 00:32:07,839
I actually began to wonder
if maybe Miles
722
00:32:07,926 --> 00:32:10,148
would be better off
with someone else.
723
00:32:10,870 --> 00:32:13,156
Someone who could
give him children.
724
00:32:17,555 --> 00:32:18,762
Thank you.
725
00:32:19,169 --> 00:32:21,055
No further questions,
Your Honor.
726
00:32:23,643 --> 00:32:25,333
These divorce papers...
727
00:32:25,641 --> 00:32:27,670
How long ago
did you say they were filed?
728
00:32:27,758 --> 00:32:31,359
About a year ago,
maybe 13 months now.
729
00:32:31,447 --> 00:32:34,396
You know, it sounds like,
uh, you filed them
730
00:32:34,484 --> 00:32:36,098
just before you found out
you were pregnant.
731
00:32:36,185 --> 00:32:39,453
Yes. It all seemed
to happen at once.
732
00:32:40,257 --> 00:32:44,646
Also sounds like maybe
you withdrew the papers
733
00:32:44,734 --> 00:32:46,225
when you found out
you were pregnant.
734
00:32:46,539 --> 00:32:48,531
No. Like I said, I withdrew them
735
00:32:48,618 --> 00:32:50,490
not even an hour
after I filed them.
736
00:32:50,577 --> 00:32:51,795
Do you remember the date?
737
00:32:51,882 --> 00:32:53,977
I do. I'll bet you do.
738
00:32:54,096 --> 00:32:56,062
Because according
to your medical records,
739
00:32:56,150 --> 00:32:58,682
it was the exact same date
the clinic called
740
00:32:58,770 --> 00:33:02,154
to tell you your test
was positive, you were pregnant.
741
00:33:02,242 --> 00:33:03,867
Yeah... Well, I mean,
742
00:33:04,048 --> 00:33:07,138
yes, but that was
purely coincidence.
743
00:33:07,226 --> 00:33:10,273
I mean, I-I withdrew them first,
same day I filed them,
744
00:33:10,361 --> 00:33:12,798
like I said, and then when
I got home that evening,
745
00:33:13,097 --> 00:33:14,838
the clinic called with the news.
746
00:33:14,949 --> 00:33:17,016
And are you sure
that was the order of events?
747
00:33:17,104 --> 00:33:19,383
Definitely. So it's not as if
748
00:33:19,475 --> 00:33:21,203
you found out you were pregnant
749
00:33:21,302 --> 00:33:23,656
and thought the baby
would save your marriage?
750
00:33:23,744 --> 00:33:26,531
Objection, Your Honor.
Asked and answered.
751
00:33:26,711 --> 00:33:29,268
Objection sustained.
Ask another question,
752
00:33:29,355 --> 00:33:31,023
Ms. Taylor.
753
00:33:31,224 --> 00:33:34,011
Mrs. McConnell, are you sure
you're not fighting
754
00:33:34,099 --> 00:33:36,554
for this baby because
you fear your marriage
755
00:33:36,642 --> 00:33:38,013
won't survive
without him?
756
00:33:38,101 --> 00:33:40,495
I'm fighting for my baby
because I love him,
757
00:33:40,708 --> 00:33:44,109
because Ican't survive
without him.
758
00:33:45,824 --> 00:33:47,453
Thank you for your honesty.
759
00:33:48,741 --> 00:33:52,617
But this hearing
is about the baby's well-being,
760
00:33:53,302 --> 00:33:54,695
not yours.
761
00:33:57,757 --> 00:33:58,907
I have no further
questions,
762
00:33:58,995 --> 00:34:00,281
Your Honor.
763
00:34:14,312 --> 00:34:15,429
Yeah?
764
00:34:15,530 --> 00:34:17,097
Bull, are you awake?
It's Danny.
765
00:34:17,718 --> 00:34:20,789
Um... what's going on?
766
00:34:20,994 --> 00:34:22,300
Okay, well,
767
00:34:22,442 --> 00:34:24,164
you can't ask me
how I got ahold of them,
768
00:34:24,252 --> 00:34:25,774
which means you can't use
what I'm about to tell you
769
00:34:25,861 --> 00:34:28,468
as evidence,
but I was able to get a peek
770
00:34:28,556 --> 00:34:30,781
at the Waltons'
medical records, both his
771
00:34:30,869 --> 00:34:32,898
- and hers.
- Yeah?
772
00:34:32,986 --> 00:34:34,357
And Samara...
773
00:34:34,872 --> 00:34:37,231
Samara had ovarian cancer
last year.
774
00:34:37,607 --> 00:34:39,449
It's in remission now,
775
00:34:39,537 --> 00:34:41,474
but obviously it could
come back at any time.
776
00:34:43,544 --> 00:34:44,912
Bull?
777
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:46,073
Yeah?
778
00:34:46,161 --> 00:34:47,138
One other thing.
779
00:34:47,226 --> 00:34:51,012
As a result of her illness,
she has no eggs,
780
00:34:51,100 --> 00:34:55,419
and it would be impossible
for her to get pregnant, ever.
781
00:34:57,922 --> 00:35:00,279
Ah, Mrs. McConnell.
Mr. McConnell.
782
00:35:00,367 --> 00:35:02,151
Uh, if you would
sit here.
783
00:35:06,637 --> 00:35:08,638
Thank you all for coming.
784
00:35:09,997 --> 00:35:12,521
I received a phone call
last night
785
00:35:12,662 --> 00:35:15,951
about Mrs. Walton's
medical history.
786
00:35:18,263 --> 00:35:20,544
And while she is in fine health
at the moment,
787
00:35:20,632 --> 00:35:22,852
18 months ago,
things were far more dire.
788
00:35:22,940 --> 00:35:24,289
Again,
789
00:35:24,444 --> 00:35:28,310
she has a clean bill
of health today,
790
00:35:29,291 --> 00:35:33,185
but the often fatal disease
she rallied against
791
00:35:33,617 --> 00:35:35,138
often recurs.
792
00:35:36,380 --> 00:35:39,301
Now, I could subpoena
her medical history,
793
00:35:39,388 --> 00:35:40,955
get her doctors on the stand,
794
00:35:41,130 --> 00:35:42,935
get medical professionals
to talk about
795
00:35:43,023 --> 00:35:46,021
the possibility
of this disease recurring,
796
00:35:47,497 --> 00:35:49,271
but I don't want
to do that.
797
00:35:53,533 --> 00:35:55,404
Truth is, even
with all that,
798
00:35:55,615 --> 00:35:58,318
this case could go either way,
and the judge,
799
00:35:59,408 --> 00:36:01,763
whatever decision she makes...
800
00:36:03,688 --> 00:36:08,349
..at least one family
is going to be heartbroken.
801
00:36:10,898 --> 00:36:12,380
So...
802
00:36:13,172 --> 00:36:15,365
I'd like to propose
a different solution.
803
00:36:17,402 --> 00:36:19,709
We know the combination
of Roderick's sperm
804
00:36:19,797 --> 00:36:25,237
and Elisabeth's egg created
a beautiful, healthy baby boy.
805
00:36:28,435 --> 00:36:30,002
Let's just do it again.
806
00:36:32,528 --> 00:36:33,966
You can't be serious.
807
00:36:34,054 --> 00:36:35,882
Oh, yes, I am.
808
00:36:36,271 --> 00:36:37,435
Samara,
809
00:36:37,523 --> 00:36:41,185
your disease left you with
no eggs to fertilize, right?
810
00:36:41,628 --> 00:36:43,755
So if Elisabeth
811
00:36:43,844 --> 00:36:44,927
was to donate
an egg...
812
00:36:45,015 --> 00:36:46,497
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
813
00:36:47,812 --> 00:36:51,574
This is not why we're here.
This is not what we came for.
814
00:36:51,662 --> 00:36:52,326
Hold on.
815
00:36:52,414 --> 00:36:54,808
You want me to donate one
of my eggs to the Waltons?
816
00:36:54,896 --> 00:36:56,811
I'm suggesting a way
817
00:36:57,224 --> 00:37:00,208
that might give everyone
what they want.
818
00:37:00,296 --> 00:37:02,802
But why would I ever agree
to have a child of mine
819
00:37:02,890 --> 00:37:05,763
out in the world without me
being able to raise him or her?
820
00:37:05,851 --> 00:37:08,462
Exactly why we're here.
821
00:37:11,603 --> 00:37:13,771
That's the way we feel
about Joseph.
822
00:37:17,396 --> 00:37:19,966
And what if
823
00:37:20,054 --> 00:37:24,189
you didn't shut each other out
of either child's life?
824
00:37:25,193 --> 00:37:27,322
Each family
raises a child
825
00:37:27,409 --> 00:37:29,722
of their own, and
that child would know
826
00:37:29,810 --> 00:37:31,740
that there were other
people out there
827
00:37:31,828 --> 00:37:33,888
who loved him or her.
828
00:37:34,700 --> 00:37:36,208
Better than a grandparent,
829
00:37:36,896 --> 00:37:39,216
another parent,
and a brother
830
00:37:39,304 --> 00:37:42,247
or sister who, otherwise,
wouldn't be there.
831
00:37:43,309 --> 00:37:44,833
Now, I am not naive.
832
00:37:44,921 --> 00:37:47,663
I know that this is not gonna be
easy, but the upside...
833
00:37:49,910 --> 00:37:51,615
...the upside
834
00:37:52,174 --> 00:37:54,474
is so damn high up there...
835
00:37:56,985 --> 00:37:58,677
...it's almost unimaginable.
836
00:38:01,302 --> 00:38:03,982
Now, look, if this hearing
has proven anything, it's that
837
00:38:04,779 --> 00:38:06,497
none of you are perfect.
838
00:38:07,278 --> 00:38:10,542
But you are all
loving, caring, good people,
839
00:38:10,856 --> 00:38:14,872
and you all want
what's best for Joseph.
840
00:38:18,372 --> 00:38:20,456
So why couldn't
that be the love
841
00:38:20,544 --> 00:38:22,068
of four imperfect people?
842
00:38:22,888 --> 00:38:25,685
And a sibling to go through
the journey of life with?
843
00:38:30,035 --> 00:38:31,210
Your Honor,
844
00:38:31,298 --> 00:38:34,232
before you render a decision,
my client would
845
00:38:34,500 --> 00:38:36,502
very much like
to address the court.
846
00:38:38,406 --> 00:38:40,396
If the Waltons
have no objection?
847
00:38:40,622 --> 00:38:42,224
We do not, Your Honor.
848
00:38:43,899 --> 00:38:45,466
Mrs. McConnell?
849
00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:48,701
Your Honor.
850
00:38:49,681 --> 00:38:51,271
Um, before you render
a decision,
851
00:38:51,359 --> 00:38:53,059
I think we've all collectively
852
00:38:53,147 --> 00:38:54,693
come to a realization.
853
00:38:54,920 --> 00:38:56,794
I-I know I have.
854
00:38:57,005 --> 00:38:59,877
I can finally see
why the Waltons
855
00:38:59,965 --> 00:39:02,341
felt the need
to file for custody.
856
00:39:03,151 --> 00:39:06,677
It's clear to me...
Clear to us...
857
00:39:06,765 --> 00:39:08,577
That they're doing
what they're doing
858
00:39:08,665 --> 00:39:11,685
out of enormous love
for Joseph.
859
00:39:14,297 --> 00:39:16,212
I don't know
how to ask someone...
860
00:39:16,900 --> 00:39:19,240
Order someone
to stop loving a child
861
00:39:19,328 --> 00:39:21,271
who's at least
partially theirs.
862
00:39:21,359 --> 00:39:23,560
I'm not sure I know
where we're going.
863
00:39:25,146 --> 00:39:28,841
What I'm proposing...
Uh, what we're all proposing...
864
00:39:28,929 --> 00:39:31,542
And, uh, really
it's Dr. Bull's idea...
865
00:39:31,630 --> 00:39:33,230
Is that, in-in return
866
00:39:33,318 --> 00:39:36,818
for the Waltons withdrawing
their custody suit,
867
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:38,802
I'm prepared to donate
one of my eggs
868
00:39:38,890 --> 00:39:40,956
so that Roderick
and Samara
869
00:39:41,044 --> 00:39:42,849
might have a child
of their own.
870
00:39:44,894 --> 00:39:46,193
Wow.
871
00:39:48,576 --> 00:39:50,287
Are you on board with this?
872
00:39:52,474 --> 00:39:54,208
We are, Your Honor.
873
00:39:54,427 --> 00:39:57,201
We think it's
a very kind, generous...
874
00:39:58,841 --> 00:40:00,232
incredible offer.
875
00:40:00,763 --> 00:40:04,044
In addition, we would work out
a visitation agreement,
876
00:40:04,132 --> 00:40:07,662
so Joseph could know
all four of his parents.
877
00:40:07,750 --> 00:40:08,851
And likewise,
878
00:40:08,939 --> 00:40:11,849
should the Waltons have a child
that Elisabeth helped conceive,
879
00:40:12,028 --> 00:40:14,552
we pledge to work out a similar
agreement for that child.
880
00:40:14,914 --> 00:40:17,185
Samara and I
have agreed
881
00:40:17,533 --> 00:40:19,666
to provide child
support as well.
882
00:40:20,247 --> 00:40:22,061
We want Joseph
to always know
883
00:40:22,149 --> 00:40:24,412
we'll be there for him
in any way he needs.
884
00:40:24,934 --> 00:40:26,497
Just to be clear,
885
00:40:26,958 --> 00:40:28,416
does this mean
you're withdrawing
886
00:40:28,503 --> 00:40:29,852
your petition for custody?
887
00:40:32,172 --> 00:40:33,622
Yes, Your Honor.
888
00:40:40,466 --> 00:40:41,772
Counselor,
889
00:40:41,860 --> 00:40:43,958
looks like we've got a
few things to figure out.
890
00:40:44,046 --> 00:40:45,060
We certainly do.
891
00:40:45,148 --> 00:40:47,802
I'll give you a call
in the morning. That'd be terrific.
892
00:40:47,913 --> 00:40:49,480
And, uh, that reminds me,
893
00:40:49,582 --> 00:40:52,693
we need to set up a time
and a place for tomorrow's visitation.
894
00:40:54,380 --> 00:40:56,443
Oh, I don't know,
maybe the four of us
895
00:40:56,531 --> 00:40:58,201
could work out the
details over dinner?
896
00:40:58,810 --> 00:41:00,497
Excuse me?
897
00:41:00,775 --> 00:41:04,068
Would you guys like to join us
and Joseph for some dinner?
898
00:41:04,996 --> 00:41:06,380
We'd love to.
899
00:41:06,816 --> 00:41:07,817
Taylor?
900
00:41:07,905 --> 00:41:09,238
Oh, I don't know.
901
00:41:09,326 --> 00:41:11,771
Seems to me like
a dinner for new friends.
902
00:41:13,766 --> 00:41:15,247
I'll get you next time.
903
00:41:15,745 --> 00:41:17,091
Shall we?
904
00:41:20,702 --> 00:41:21,997
What do you think?
905
00:41:22,521 --> 00:41:24,177
Did we do a good thing?
906
00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:26,407
I hope so.
907
00:41:26,495 --> 00:41:28,263
Did we do the right thing?
908
00:41:28,707 --> 00:41:30,162
I think so.
909
00:41:31,217 --> 00:41:32,779
Did we do the best we could?
910
00:41:32,867 --> 00:41:34,913
Yeah,
we did the best we could.
911
00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:37,808
Now we just have to wait
20 or so years
912
00:41:37,896 --> 00:41:39,644
to find out what Joseph thinks.
913
00:41:39,747 --> 00:41:42,137
