Last time on Family Law...
-While I house hunt... -She'll move in.
When you break up, I will not be forced to choose sides.
This is Sabrina Bass, soon to be ex-wife of Connery Bass.
What does a lesbian bring on the second date? A U-Haul.
I've been suspended from practicing law.
You're not allowed to come in.
That's a recommendation, not a requirement.
-Maybe time off will be good for you. -Where'd you get all this?
-Isabelle. -"Isabelle"?
She's Dad's new friend. I met her on the weekend. She's nice.
It's only a month. Why not treat it like a vacation? Enjoy yourself.
I enjoy going to work, putting on a nice suit,
watching my staff snap to attention.
My ungrateful children have driven me into exile.
You aren't King Lear. Stop wallowing. Come house hunting with me.
-No thanks. I'd rather... -Mope around in your housecoat?
Go. Shower. Dress. We're leaving in half an hour.
I'm saying that an orchid is property and isn't child of the marriage.
-Hey, Frank. -We'll catch up later.
-Everything Alright? Kids okay? -Oh, yeah. The kids are peachy.
Yesterday Nico told me he made a new friend.
You already knew, you introduced them.
What's her name again? Isabelle.
Isabelle is the woman I've been seeing.
We ran into her at the Kids Market.
You happened to run into her at the Kids Market?
She's a pre-school teacher.
A pre-school teacher?
-Could you get any more cliche? -A fireman?
-She cut your crusts off? -Don't start, Abby.
I'm not the one running into my girlfriend with our kids.
It wasn't ideal, okay? I'm sorry.
Now that we're talking about it, I was hoping that you'd
let me introduce her to the kids early, officially.
This is why you were suddenly okay with Aidan meeting the kids?
I was trying to build some trust.
When it serves you. You tried to control my life.
You dragged us through court, now you want to change a clause
you insisted on because you're hot for teacher?
Sorry. We're not changing anything. You made this bed. You can lie in it.
How'd the rest of the move go? Kelly return the U-Haul okay?
It's not getting funnier.
There was an actual U-Haul parked out front.
That was joke on a platter. What was I supposed to do?
-It's stereotyping. -You people need to ease up.
"You people"?
Psychologists.
You're here. Jerri, Get the rest of the staff together.
I know some of you are worried about my father's suspension
but rest assured, my steady hand is steering the ship.
-Mr. Svensson... -Questions at the end.
If you have concerns, at any time, bring them directly to me.
-Where's the new copier? -Can I talk to you about my vacation?
Unless they're on office management, HR, IT, health and safety,
those go to Jerri.
Okay. Thank you. Yes, Abby?
Is your office big enough to hold your new ego?
Winston, what was your question?
Not a question, there are clients in the boardroom.
-Who'd they request? -No one.
They haven't been given a lawyer yet.
No dibs. Abby, you take them. I've an entire firm to run.
Sorry to keep you waiting. I'm Abigail Bianchi.
Thanks for meeting us. I'm Paul. my wife, Margo, and our son, Rory.
-I have math class now. -I know, love.
Remember, we're meeting a lawyer.
-I should be in math. -Let's get you a snack.
Rory's upset because he was expelled.
-No. I have the banana first. -We just have the orange today.
-Pretend you ate it already. -We want to sue his school
-for refusing our son an education. -Why was he expelled?
No. I have the banana first. I have the banana first!
FAMILY LAW
Every morning, Rory eats a banana, then an orange. In that order.
He's on the autism spectrum. Changes to routine are destabilizing.
Coming here instead of school, the wrong snack...
-He gets overwhelmed. -That must be tough.
It was manageable, but ever since he hit puberty,
he gets triggered more easily, his outbursts are...
-It's a lot to handle. -And it's hard on Maisie.
She's our 7-year-old. We need his school to take him back.
Any specialized schools that might be a good fit?
Yes. But they're private. We can't afford that.
Rory has a right to a public education, just like any other kid.
Without the school, we are care-taking 24/7.
You're doing him no good if you're spent.
No one expects raising a child with special needs to be easy
but should the school board be allowed to abandon us?
They have hundreds students.
If Rory exhibited dangerous behavior, they had to expel him.
I heard he went Hulk on that mandarin.
How does that revoke his right to an education?
-Homeschooling may be best. -Says the guy with no kids.
One would have to quit their job, lose half their income.
Plus, the hours Rory's at school are the only break his parents get.
Parents of special needs kids are expected to become teachers,
case-workers, therapists, it's completely unrealistic.
We looked after Eleanor's mother for a year after her stroke.
Care-giver burnout's no joke.
Fine, head to the school.
Chances are they'll fold right away. But get back here ASAP,
-Need you on other cases -Aye-aye, Captain.
I need to speak to you privately.
Word is out about Harry.
We've had calls from nervous clients all morning.
-Let's control this. -He's out for a month.
-How bad can it be? -Plenty.
His suspension has rattled people's confidence.
Get me a list and I'll make some calls.
Start with Sabrina Bass she's an inch from jumping ship.
Connery Bass is a social justice icon.
She's a vacuous gold-digger. Losing her won't be such a bad thing.
Yes, Daniel. It would be an incredibly bad thing.
Fine. She'll be my first call.
No. Not call. Take the vacuous gold digger to lunch.
I'm off to Rory's school.
While I'm out, I need you to find all of the Isabelles,
last name unknown, working at Vancouver pre-schools.
Yeah. Sure thing. Which client are we billing this to?
Not allowed to say. It's top secret.
I don't think we have a client code for that.
Sofia and Nico insist that the new house must have a pool.
And look at that.
And the privacy, we'd never have to wear bathing suits again.
What? Oh, yeah. Yes. It's nice.
You're killing my shopping buzz, Eeyore.
Do you live around the corner or something?
No. The chef's a personal friend. We met at Forty Under 40.
-Forty Under 40 worldwide? -No. A different one.
My ex would love this place.
He was always saying "Don't flaunt your wealth."
-The food is incredible. -I can stomach second-rate dining
on occasion, but I can't stomach a second-rate legal team.
I'm not an understudy. I'm a full partner with a flawless reputation.
I googled you, the first thing I saw was a talking pug.
-Daniel. -Chef Martina.
This is Sabrina Bass. She's a very important client.
Then I'll bring out our new tasting menu.
As long as we start with Wagyu beef tartare.
I'm afraid we don't serve that. We do have quail shots in shell.
Quail? That is so last year.
CAWTHORNE HIGH SCHOOL
-Was Rory intentionally violent? -No, never. But he was disruptive.
-Deliberately? -I hate that it's come to this.
Rory's a sweetheart but he's easily set off, and when he's set off...
I have 27 other students.
What did his individual education plan suggest?
One-on-one support, the schoolboard denied it.
Really? Isn't it their job to make sure kids are supported?
It's easy to vilify them, they can't pay with money they don't have.
I've been doing this a long time.
I've never worked in a high school with funding for one-on-one aides.
How is this not news?
-Do you have kids, Ms. Bianchi? -Yeah, two.
I'm guessing neither of them have learning challenges.
When Connery and I dated, he loved that I was creative and ambitious.
We'd be two pillars, blah-blah then we get married,
and suddenly I'm supposed to be head cheerleader for Connery Bass.
-Not what I signed up for. -Who would?
I wasted years of my life on him
and now he has the balls to say my spending is unseemly?
We're going to get you your fair share of the marital assets.
My fair share? Is that a joke?
Harry Svensson promised to bring me my husband's head on a platter.
-We're lawyers, not assassins. -Heather Mills was married to
Paul McCartney four years and got 48 million. I put in seven years.
To start, handmade trofie pasta
baked in truffle sauce with a gruyere cheese.
Mac and cheese? Is that what you think I'm worth?
Cafeteria food? You're no better than my husband.
-You're going after her? -She's worth a fortune to the firm.
Bring her in here again and I will drag her out by her hair extensions.
How did it go?
She's a nightmare. She acted like Fodder was a fast-food joint.
-You took her to Fodder? -Martina is a Forty Under 40 chef.
Sabrina Bass is a top one percent client.
Do better.
I've got a new strategy for the Gardiner case. Sue the Ministry.
-Sue the government? -He's not some delinquent.
He's got a disability. If they had funding, he'd not have been expelled.
They're in breach of their responsibilities.
They have endless resources. You'd be in court for years.
-They can't afford that. -I'd do it pro bono.
No pro bono right now. I got to think about our bottom line.
Is it Freaky Friday? Harry is not a good look on you.
I feel for these people, but this isn't charity.
We need to focus on clients who pay our bills. Drop the case.
Want to swap?
Bubblegum for Espresso Flake? I don't think so.
Dad's friend from last week, is that the first time you met her?
Yeah.
-Did you do anything with her after? -We checked out Dragonspace.
-Is she pretty? -I don't know. I don't think so.
-How old is she? -Old?
-Older than me? -Not that old.
Did you catch her last name? Or what school she teaches at?
-What's with these weird questions? -I don't know. Just curious.
-Need some help with that dribble? -Nice try.
One of my old colleagues is in the obits. Where are you off to?
Tennis with Gabby. Girls' brunch. More house shopping.
Should I join you?
Harry, we can't gossip about you at girls' brunch if you're there.
-You have your own friends. -They're dropping like flies.
Well, then call a live one.
Have you dropped the Gardiners?
I'm taking the termination papers to them now.
I've got the top-secret information you requested, Ms. Bianchi.
-What information? -Wouldn't be top secret if I said.
I found three Isabelles who work at pre-schools. Here's the first one.
If only. Frank's not dating a grandma, Cecil.
Seems a little ageist but okay. Meet contestant number two.
-She's Pretty. -She plays for the other team.
-Because she plays cricket? -The wedding photo with her wife.
Let's see number three.
The third Isabelle teaches at a pre-school in Point Grey.
Sounds right. Let's see, need to know if she has bangs.
-Thirty-three? That's awfully young. -How old was Aidan?
I combed her social media, but no selfies.
Her feed is just nature, baking, and quotes about gratitude.
She seems down to earth.
-She's a phony. Or both -Or ugly.
Cecil? Winston? I'm sure you both have work to do. Abigail, a word?
We're trying to stem the flow and you have Cecil stalking a teacher?
Harry's been gone a day. Dial back the drama.
You two woefully underestimate his value.
I just wanted to see Frank's new girlfriend, that's all.
-I didn't know Frank was dating. -Neither did I.
Till he told me he wants to introduce her to the kids.
-Are you going to let him? -After what he did? Hell no.
"Revenge is a dish best served cold,"
No, "The best revenge is a life lived well."
Same diff.
Punishing Frank for the past won't help either of you move forward.
Maybe give Isabelle a follow.
Sounds like one of the saccharine sayings she'd post.
Here's another one for you, "Mockery is the last refuge of the bitter."
Ms. Bianchi, come in. Did you make any headway with the school board?
-Unfortunately, no. -I have to go to school.
I play Uno with Scott and Javi.
I know, but you can't be on school grounds.
-I have to go. -You need to stay here. I'm sorry.
Rory, you can't go today. You need to listen, please.
-I have to go to school. -No. Rory, it's okay.
That's enough.
Rory. You need to breathe, Rory. Breathe.
Maisie. Get in the car. Lock the doors.
Call 9-1-1, please.
Rory, breathe. Breathe, Rory.
BAYVIEW HOSPITAL
Tuesdays, Tuesdays, Tuesdays at recess, I play Uno.
Nobody likes their routine disrupted.
-Like if I don't get my Americano. -Super grouchy.
Would you like to stay with us today, Rory?
We might have a deck of Uno cards.
-Okay. -I can play with you.
Maybe you'll even let me win once in a while?
Seems so comfortable with them.
He's landed himself in this hospital so often, he knows them all by name.
Hi, love. How are you doing? Feeling better now?
Better now.
-I'm all right. I'm all right. -There was too much.
-I know. I know, it was scary. -Yeah. Scary.
We know you don't want to hurt anyone.
-Hate it. -We're doing okay.
Got you yogurt and onion, your favorite.
It's a terrible thing to be grateful for, but when he's here,
Rory gets the care he needs and everyone's safe.
He's sleeping with the neighbor, so she takes his pet fish,
the $200,000 pet fish, batters it, fries it, eats it.
Classic. Oh, Phil.
I got to say, I don't enjoy sitting on the sidelines.
Come on. It's only four weeks. You're not Drew Bledsoe.
-Who? -Drew Bledsoe.
Starting QB for the Patriots?
Until he sat out a few weeks with an injury.
His backup was a kid named Tom Brady.
Guess who never got his job back.
-Not helping, Phil. -Sorry.
We appreciate the vote of confidence, Mr. Gupta. See you Thursday.
I have it on good authority that Sabrina was with
Eric Russell last night. She's shopping for a new lawyer.
I sent her flowers and a bottle of Dom.
Any fool can buy flowers and wine. She owns a vineyard in Tuscany.
-Give her something she needs. -What does she need?
I have no idea. Get inside her head, that's what Harry would do.
How did I not see the writing on the wall?
The world is changing so damn fast.
Come on, Harry. You think there's a man our age practicing family law
who hasn't done what you did?
Look, the Law Society needed to set an example.
You drew the short straw.
-Look who's here. -Judge Crombie.
-Sterling. -Always a pleasure, Harry.
-Get out, Phil. -Slept with what's-her-knobs, huh?
You should've known that would blow up in your face.
The firm is in excellent hands in my absence.
Sure. Pukey and the talking Pug have it all under control.
Miss Isabelle. Braiden pushed me.
Okay. Stay here for a second, okay?
Braiden? You having some big feelings right now?
What can we do instead of push, huh?
If you're mad and you know it Stomp your feet
If you're mad and you know it Stomp your feet
Hi. Are you here to pick up a child?
No. I'm just casting for a juice box commercial.
If you're mad and you know it Stomp your feet
-She was committed to the bit. -Did it calm the kid down?
It's not the point, Winston. Frank's new girlfriend is so sweet,
-she made my teeth hurt. -Is she pretty?
I suppose. In a certain light.
My sister's Cosmo said people tend to rebound
with the polar opposite of their ex.
So I'm the polar opposite of pretty? Or sweet?
-How's that moral inventory going? -Great. Why do you ask?
Obsessing about your ex-husband's girlfriend
seems like a step in the wrong direction.
You all suck at gossiping.
If you're mad and you know it Stomp your feet
Any tips for getting inside a narcissist's head?
-Short answer? Don't. -She's a client I need to win over,
or Dad will never let me take over.
-Okay. Lots to unpack there. -Let's just stick to the narcissist.
I'm not endorsing mind games
but figure out her insecurities and big that part up.
She's a hot 29-year-old who's seriously rich.
-She's doesn't have any. -Everyone does.
Where were you? I've been calling.
I've been busy running a law firm. Did you drop the Gardiners?
No, I didn't because when I arrived, Rory had a violent outburst.
He's in the hospital, you'd know that if you checked your messages.
It was a nightmare, Daniel.
If you saw, you'd get why we have to do it pro bono.
I don't have time for this.
I have to figure out what makes a trophy wife tick.
He's hospitalized and kissing Marie Antoinette's ass takes priority?
That poor family.
The staff were amazing with him. He needs trained care-workers.
Ironically, If he didn't have supportive parents,
he'd have a better chance of getting them.
Autistic teens in the system
often get placed in group homes with professional support.
Hello. We weren't expecting you.
-We were about to go get Rory. -Just hear me out.
I think I know how you can get your son the help he needs.
-How? -Don't pick him up from the hospital.
You want us to ditch our son at the hospital?
If you refuse to pick him up,
you'd be surrendering Rory to the Ministry.
He would be the government's legal responsibility.
So, Rory goes into a foster home?
A group home with caregivers trained to support autistic youth.
Nurse Wendy worked in a place like that when she was in training.
No way. He'd think we've abandoned him.
I understand. It was a radical suggestion.
But if we pick him up as planned, then we keep living in triage mode.
-We're doing okay. -Are we?
I don't even know if Rory's okay.
I don't know how much longer
I can keep him from accidentally hurting someone.
And what about Maisie?
She has to lock herself in the car because she doesn't feel safe here?
-Could he still come home whenever? -Yes.
BAYVIEW HOSPITAL
I thought you said you were getting out of the condo.
I did. Yesterday. It did not go well.
-I thought you liked Phil. -It's all shop talk on the course.
-So? -So I don't have a shop.
There must be somebody's company you enjoy who isn't a lawyer.
Call them. And put this housecoat in the wash, I'm begging you.
I was wondering if you might want to grab a quick bite to eat later?
Oh, sorry. Didn't know you had company.
Hello, Kelly.
Your hair looks very nice today.
-What is it, Abby? -I just wanted to let you know
I did what you said, the Gardiners gave their son up to the Ministry,
-What? That's not what I said. -Yes, you did.
You said he'd be entitled to a place in a group home with professionals.
So many kids are entitled to services they never get.
He could go to an understaffed home or unprepared foster parents.
-Abby... -Somebody had to do something.
I would never advise anyone to surrender their child.
-Obviously you wouldn't. -I mean, what is she thinking?
There are so many ways this could go wrong.
Why do you let her do that all the time?
It's not all the time. Abby doesn't do it on purpose.
Of course not. She whips up drama since she was neglected as a child.
It's trauma. She can't help it.
Hey. Just looking out for my Lucy.
And I love that.
Jerri, truthfully, how bad would it be if I can't win her over?
Well, we can survive without Sabrina Bass.
But the danger is these West Van wives are like lemmings.
If one jumps, they all follow.
Sabrina Bass, champagne glass boys stare at my turnt-up ass

Sabrina Bass, champagne glass Boys stare at my turnt-up ass
Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to see me.
Sorry I couldn't come sooner. School gets out at 3:00.
I've never seen you wear a shirt without buttons before. Are you okay?
Yes. I'm not going into the office much these days.
-Why not? -They decided I broke a rule.
-But you didn't? -No, I did. It's just a stupid rule.
I reject the premise that my actions were harmful
and I should be eligible for punishment.
Like my suspension for forging signatures?
Exactly. And now I have to stay home from work for a month.
I feel for you. I had serious FOMO when I had to stay home from school.
-FOMO? -"Fear of missing out."
Yes. I most definitely have FOMO.
The only thing that got me through it was my homework mole.
You know, my friend, Steph, made notes for me in every class
so I wouldn't miss out on anything.
Are you ready to order?
Yes, I'll have the ribeye steak, medium rare,
with a baked potato, all the fixings and a Shirley Temple, please.
Make that two.
Sub the Shirley Temple for a dry martini, two olives.
-I need to see Ms. Bianchi. -She's on a call.
-She needs to get off the call. -Mr. Gardiner?
-Can I get you a cup of coffee? -No. I don't want coffee.
What's wrong? Is Rory all right?
We've been accused of child abuse and neglect.
The Ministry has applied for a protection order
to stop us from having any contact with Rory.
We could lose Maisie too.
What were you thinking?
I wouldn't have had to do this
if you hadn't Scrooged out and made me drop their case.
No way this is on me, Abby.
If people hear you advised clients to give up their child to the Ministry
and they lose both their children, we could get sued.
Congratulations. Now I have to let you work pro bono for them. Fix this.
Sabrina Bass, champagne glass Boys stare at my turnt-up ass

I need to pull you in on something.
I can't do any more top secret projects.
I need you to draft an expedited motion for the Gardiners.
You're working late.
Cecil filed the emergency application and they offered us a slot this week.
If we didn't take it, they could go months without seeing their son.
Don't worry. I already added reckless to my moral inventory.
Abigail, yeah, maybe it was reckless
but those people were stuck and no one else was helping them.
Mr. Vagas, is it true the child was brought to your group home
because his parents abandoned him?
His parents were trying--
-Yes or no, Mr. Vagas. -Yes.
When he arrived, did he have injuries to his head,
his face and his hands?
Yes, but those injuries--
-Just a yes or no. -Yes.
And according to his file, he was confused and distraught on arrival?
Does that accurately describe his mental and emotional state?
-Yes or no? -Yes. But he's adapted quickly.
He's bonded with the staff, made friends, joined activities.
Well, that's wonderful to hear. I'm not surprised he's thriving.
Now he's been separated from his parents,
they didn't want to put the time or money into their autistic child,
so they off-loaded him.
Objection, prejudicial.
-Sustained. -No further questions.
Mr. Vagas, how many trained professionals are on the clock
at your group home at any given time?
Three or four.
-And how long are your shifts? -Eight hours.
If there are three shifts in a 24-hour period, times three staff,
does it take nine trained professionals to care for the child?
Yet the Ministry somehow believes his parents, with no training,
working full-time jobs, with a young child,
should be able to do it equally well?
-Objection. Leading the witness. -Sustained.
Did the Ministry support the Gardiners at home?
They got monthly consults with Ministry therapists.
So once a month someone talked to them
and then left them alone to do the work of nine people?
Do you believe they harmed their child?
No. Those Scrapes and cuts could happen in a meltdown.
Thank you.
Insinuating abuse is a low blow from an institution desperate to distract
from the fact they're failing kids from special needs families.
Objection. Improper characterization.
Is it though? They didn't leave him at the hospital due to neglect.
They had no other way to get him the care he needs.
The only one guilty of abandonment is the Ministry,
who ignored them and deserted this family in crisis.
Objection. Is she even going to pretend to question him?
The reason they're pretending to care is to scare others
from a last-ditch gamble no one should be desperate enough to use.
Nice little speech in there.
Easy when you're on the right side.
Give me a break. No one forced them to have kids.
There's the compassion I'd expect from Children's Services.
The court defers to the Ministry by default.
Anything else means serious blowback.
There is no way that Lee risks that her second year on the bench.
-Wagyu tartare? -I'll stick with water.
-I have another meeting in 15. -In that case, I'll get right to it.
-You gave me an ear worm. -What are you talking about?
Think I care about your snub Drinking Cristal in the club?
-You listened to Cristal. -I did. Can't get it out of my head.
How can I hear more of your tracks?
Connery only paid for one single and then he buried it.
He sabotaged you to keep you as his trophy wife.
That's exactly what he did.
If not for him, you could've been the next Beyonce.
Your ex-husband robbed you of a lucrative singing career
and in my professional opinion,
the bastard needs to repay every cent.
Nothing would give me more pleasure
than to sue him for the biggest support claim they've ever seen.
In addition to half of everything he owns, obviously.
Would you allow me that honor?
Are you ready to order?
We'll start with the Wagyu beef tartare
and a bottle of your best champagne.
There is no evidence of child abuse. I'm dismissing that claim.
But for the allegation of neglect, the Ministry's argument holds.
In their desperation, the Gardiners did abandon their son.
However, I can't ignore what led to their desperation.
This is what I can do,
Their daughter's custody isn't in question.
While the government has guardianship of the older child,
the parents will have full physical access to him.
You can see your son. We'll review the matter in 12 months.
I strongly suggest the Ministry review its policy.
They shouldn't have to choose between their parental rights
and getting their son the resources he needs.
I'm so sorry you had to go through this.
I'll be back in 12 months' time if I have to.
-We appreciate that. -I heard what that other lawyer said.
"Their kid, their problem."
You're supposed to take care of your kids.
That's what makes you a parent. I couldn't take care of my son.
It's okay.
How are we low on toilet paper? We just received a new shipment.
I think someone in the office has IBS.
Proofed and ready for Ms. Bass to sign.
I took on the Ministry and won.
-Is there anything I can't do? -Hit your billable hours target?
I've got your back now. We'll manage with Harry out of commission.
We're already managing. I bagged Sabrina Bass.
-Isn't that how Harry got suspended? -Not like that, Cecil.
Let's just say Svensson and Svensson will be very well retained.
Good job. Do you need the boardroom?
Sabrina requested we meet at a recording studio.
-She's staging a comeback. -A comeback from what?
-Seems the Harry gene kicked in. -Yeah, for better or for worse.
I've decided I'm going to let Frank introduce Isabelle to the kids.
So you realized the best revenge is a life lived well?
I realized Sofia will eat that sugar cookie alive.
-Mr. Svensson. -Hello, Winston.
-What are you doing here? -Anything I damn well please.
It's my name on the lease.
Cecile.
Am I fired again, sir?
On the contrary. You are going to be my homework mole.
It would be an honor, sir.
-How's he doing? -He's adjusting. It's good. I think.
Rory, we have a visitor.
Hey. I don't know if you remember me.
-Ms. Bianchi, the lawyer. -Yeah. That's right.
-I brought you a housewarming gift. -I don't eat bananas for dinner.
Maybe my friends will eat them. We play Uno every night at 8:00.
-Dad's supposed to be driving me. -"Thank you for the fruit."
Thank you for the fruit, Ms. Bianchi. Dad. It's time to go.
-Okay. We're leaving. -Okay. Love you, Mom. Maze.
Love you.
Honey, I'm home.
-Hi. -Hello, Abby.
What's going on?
This has some real intervention vibes and I've been sober almost a year.
-Can you sit? -I'm good.
So I've been taking stock
and I realize that I need to start making healthier choices.
That's great.
I'm glad you think so because part of that is setting boundaries.
And while there's some positives to us sharing a space, I...
I think it would be best
if you started looking for somewhere else to stay during your off weeks.
You're kicking me out?
I'm not sure if this is best for either of us, long-term.
This your idea? Or hers?
You know what? Doesn't matter.
I didn't mean you should leave right this second, Abby.
