Previously on Family Law...

-She's moving in.
-Until I find my new place.

I forbid you to breathe a word
of this to Nico or Sofia.

They'll be crushed.

I got to say,

I can't imagine why anyone would
start a family at this stage in life.

-But never say "never," right?
-I can 100% say "never".

I think you're ready for step four.

-Which is?
-Moral inventory.

Help identify any unhealthy
behavior patterns.

This relationship has cost me.
You saw an opportunity and took it,

even if it meant betraying me.

So, is Kelly a new friend or--

-A new friend?
-I can't tell.

It's real.

Must be time to walk again.

Almost.

We've been running at least
three minutes!

Oh, my bad.

We just ran a whole kilometer
without stopping.

-You're the worst!
-But you did it!

Oh, I did it!

Must be the runner's high. I love it!

And I love you for being my endorphin
dealer.

I love you, too.

-Wordle in four.
-I got it in three!

-So, do you know what Friday is?
-The day before the weekend?

I know very well what Friday is,

and I've already booked us a table
at Il Giardino.

-Do you need any gift ideas?
-Wouldn't that spoil the surprise?

Surprises lead to disappointment.
I'd rather get exactly what I want.

-Oh, and what might that be?
-Your mother's tennis bracelet.

Not getting it was one of my only
regrets about our divorce.

Wouldn't you rather have
something shiny and new,

from Cartier, maybe?

-You do still have that bracelet?
-Of course.

-Just saying, I called it.
-Congratulations, you've got gaydar.

Can you stop gloating?

I'll stop gloating
when you stop grinning.

-Someone got laid!
-Lucy has a new girlfriend.

She's not my girlfriend.
It's just a few dates.

-I've met her.
-I was at yours all last week and he

finds out first? What's her name?
-Kelly.

-Not you, Dingus. What's she like?
-She's cool. Grounded, mature.

-Oh, so older?
-Ancient! Your age.

She's a good listener,
she helps me unpack things,

identifies emotional triggers.

-Kelly is a psychologist too.
-Overanalyzing each other?

-Sexy.
-People in the same profession

can have successful relationships.

Yeah, just because
you and Frank imploded.

Oh, your new suit.

-Again.
-It's really upped my game.

-Scored me another date last night.
-How'd it go?

Started great, till she went to
the bathroom and never came back.

-What'd you say to her?
-Nothing.

She called her roommate a slob,

I said "Mom leaves her nails
in the sink, Dad forgets to flush."

-Just casual banter.
-Cecil, that's not banter.

Mr. Svensson! Ms. Bianchi.
Both of you here. Together! At once.

-All okay?
-Absolutely.

-A new client is in the boardroom.
-Who's he with?

-Go ahead.
-No one yet.

And they're off!

Daniel Svensson, Partner.
Abigail Bianchi, Associate.

-Magnus Sundstrom.
-What can we help you with?

My in-laws are trying to take
my kids away from me.

-On what grounds?
-My criminal record.

-I've been arrested a few times.
-Arrested? For what?

For trying to save the world.

FAMILY LAW

-"Saving the world"?
-I'm a climate activist.

-You were arrested at protests?
-Yes and no.

First time, I chained myself
to an old-growth fir at Fairy Creek.

Second time, I helped blockade
a bridge during a trade summit.

And then about a month ago,

I paid a surprise visit
to Bluecore Mining's head office

and I poured a bucket of fake blood
on the CEO.

You pulled a Carrie?

-How many children do you have?
-Two. Boy and a girl.

-Are you and their mother--
-My wife died three years ago.

-Cancer.
-I'm sorry to hear that.

My in-laws never liked me much,

but after Kyra died, they hate that
I've involved the kids.

-You do keep getting arrested.
-They're not with me

-when I do anything risky.
-Illegal.

They're taking me to court,
calling me negligent.

How the hell am I being negligent?
I just--

I fight for climate justice
because I care about my kids.

-I want them to have a future.
-When's your court date?

-Tomorrow.
-Tomorrow?

I know, it's short notice.

I really thought
this would be resolved by now.

Is there any possibility
you would consider?

-Yes!
-Yes!

Who waits until the day
before to retain counsel?

The man sounds woefully
irresponsible.

He was repeatedly breaking the law.

He isn't being arrested
for assault or DUIs.

-The law is the law!
-That's what they said to Rosa Parks.

-That's different.
-Laws protect the status quo.

If they're unjust, why respect them?

They're destroying the environment,

and he gets arrested for standing up
to them?

And some people won't even let
their firms go paperless.

I'm sensing the beginnings
of a harangue.

If you'll excuse me.

Eleanor and I have fought for dozens
of causes,

went to marches,
wrote lots of letters.

My mom used to take me to protests.

I hated all that patchouli oil
and body hair.

I'm a bit of a social activist, too.

Did the ice-bucket challenge.

Put a black square
on my social media for BLM.

Grew a mustache for Movember.

I did shave it when Winston said
it had "porn star energy".

Cecil, way to change the world,
one hashtag at a time.

I do what I can.

Maybe I should put "social activism"
on my dating profile.

We need to divide and conquer.

Could you two drive to his home
and assess it?

-Sure.
-What, pray tell, will you be doing?

Digging through similar case files.

Hope you don't get a papercut.

This is beautiful.

Daddy, keep pushing!

-Hey, Magnus.
-Hey.

-This is Dr. Lucy Svensson.
-Hello.

Hi. Glad you came by.
My arms are getting tired.

This is my son, River.

-Hi.
-You want to see our bees?

I'd love to, but I forgot my Epi-pen.

Let's go inside and meet his sister.

Half-an-hour till lunch, kiddo.

-How's it coming along?
-Great.

What's another word for "disaster"?
I've used it twice.

Catastrophe. Doomsday. Apocalypse.

Oh, that's good. Thanks.

Cedar's writing her speech
for the rally.

Is this your first time speaking
in front of a crowd?

-I do it all the time.
-Started aged eight.

Wow, when I was eight, I was too shy
to stand in front of class.

-Hey, can I use your washroom?
-Yeah, just upstairs on the right.

Don't forget to put sawdust
down when you're done.

It's a compost toilet.

Riv, let's get washed up.

Thank you so much for the visit
and see you in court tomorrow.

You know, If SUV drivers
were a nation,

they'd rank seventh in the world
for carbon emissions.

It's a hybrid.

I'd wipe that smug look
off your face,

unless you'd prefer a long,
emissions-free walk to the office.

Hello, Harry.
I was surprised to hear from you.

Yes, it's been a while.

I caught your monologue
the other night,

the one on Critical Race Theory
in the classroom.

Oh. And?

-Your position was certainly clear.
-The ratings keep soaring.

-Do they?
-Why did you want to get together?

-I have a bold request.
-Okay.

That diamond tennis bracelet
I gave you,

could I have it back?

It's an heirloom.
Giving it away was rash.

Of course, I'd be happy
to compensate you for it.

-Who is she?
-My ex-wife.

Which one?
"Sanctimonious Bleeding Heart"

-or "Wicked Witch of the West Side"?
-The latter.

Her birthday is coming up.
Apparently, it has sentimental value.

Take it.

-I never liked it much anyway.
-Thank you, Crystal.

-How did it go at the Sundstroms'?
-Good.

The kids are happy, healthy, engaged,

having a pretty idyllic childhood.

-Magnus seems like a good dad.
-No red flags?

Nope. We're good.

1. PROCRASTINATION

I've written up
a brief home assessment.

-What are you doing?
-My "moral inventory".

So far, I have "procrastination".
Thinking of adding "perfectionism".

You're eating my lunch.
Kelly made it for me.

Oh. Sorry.

Maybe next time,
write your name on it.

What do you call that?

Oh, must've been facing
the other direction.

-Unbelievable.
-You know I love lasagna!

-This is on you!
-Maybe you should add "selfishness"

and "lack of impulse control"
to your list.

Can I do that after lunch?

Oh! I love it, Sof.
You have exquisite taste.

Happy almost-birthday, Jo-Jo.

-Open mine next.
-Okay.

-Oh, what oddly-shaped dice.
-They're for Dungeons and Dragons.

We can play together.
You'd be a great sorceress.

Oh, I can't wait.

This one must be from your mom.

I saw it and I thought of you.

Oh, thank you, honey! So considerate.

Why do Mom and Sofia
look so goofy?

That is a very good question.

-Are you texting Justin?
-Who?

Oh, him. No.

-Well, who is it?
-Someone who respects my privacy.

Do people still talk to
each other on phones?

Not by choice.

That's why Harry and I
aren't texting all day,

that way we have something
to talk about later.

-Wait. Are you and Grandpa together?
-Like, together together?

-Cat's out of the bag.
-That's so cool!

Hey, kids, why don't you get another
bocce game started?

-What the hell was that?
-I didn't mean to. It slipped out!

They might hope that
Frank and I are next.

You're being dramatic.

Kids are self-absorbed.
They'll barely think about it.

How often did you see
your grandchildren, Mrs. Wickstead?

All the time, when my daughter was--

Vince and I would go to their school
concerts, Cedar's soccer games.

We brought oranges for the team.

But the kids don't do those things
anymore.

Ever since Magnus started
homeschooling them,

they've been cut off
from their friends, us.

You feel that Mr. Sundstrom has
isolated your grandchildren from you?

-Objection! Leading the witness.
-Overruled.

-Proceed, Mrs. Wickstead.
-He returns our gifts.

Blocked our trip to Disneyland.
And I know he has his reasons.

Vince and I just want to make sure
that our grandchildren are okay.

Do you think they're safe
under his care?

Not when he takes them to
those rallies. They turn violent.

There's no evidence he's ever put
his children in harm's way.

Noted. Please continue.

How have your grandchildren been
affected by Mr. Sundstrom's arrests?

They're terrified.

They've already lost one parent,

and now the other could be hauled off
to prison.

-Objection, it's civil disobedience--
-No! It's more than that.

He's obsessed.

If it weren't for him,
Kyra would still be alive.

Our grandchildren would still have
their mother.

He killed our daughter!

Mr. Sundstrom,
did you kill your wife?

No, of course not.

The last two years of Kyra's life
had so much chemo and radiation.

It bought her time,
she just was so weak.

-Who decided to stop treatment?
-She did.

She wanted to put her time and
energy into what she cared about.

Our family, the cause.

She was the bravest, most principled
person I have ever met.

Mrs. Wickstead said your children
come to rallies.

-Do they ever get violent?
-No. They're peaceful.

If there's a chance of danger,
they stay with trusted friends.

Now that you homeschool your
children, do they ever feel isolated?

Hardly, we belong to a thriving
homeschool community.

They're both above grade-level
in reading, writing, math.

What about their grandparents?
Are you alienating them?

I refuse the odd gift
as it isn't biodegradable.

-And Disneyland?
-Air travel is accountable

for 5% of global CO2 emissions.

It's more important than
going on rides.

I want my kids to have
a relationship with them.

I invite them to rallies,
especially when Cedar is speaking,

-but they never show up.
-Thank you, Mr. Sundstrom.

And for your efforts
to save our planet.

Mr. Sundstrom more than meets the
minimum standard for a good parent.

To suggest he should lose
primary parenting

because he's a passionate
environmentalist,

-acting in all our best interests--
-Thank you. That's a bit much.

We don't take children away
when parents pass on their beliefs.

That said, I am ordering them
to be assessed by a psychologist.

We will reconvene at a later date
to consider that evidence.

-Thank you.
-Not yet, there's still the report.

I'm fine. My kids are doing great.

Come by the rally and see Cedar
in action for yourselves.

-You can cover that.
-Why me? Why don't you go?

Because I'm partner and you're not.

Well, I've been a lawyer longer,
so make me.

"Hey, Mom. So happy you're home!"

That's more like it.

What's for dinner?

There's still tons of food
from last night.

So, leftovers. Again.

You're always free to make your own
dinner.

Mom, are Grandpa and Jo-Jo
gonna get married again?

They've only been dating for a month.
Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

By the way, I'm not going to school
on Thursday.

Yes, you are.

There's strikes for the climate rally
and we won't be marked absent.

The cynic in me might think
you're skipping class

to see that boy
you've been texting.

Mother, please.
Your generation left a big mess.

Now mine has to clean it up.

Funny coincidence!

I'm going to one of those
rallies.

-Please. Since when?
-Since a client asked me to.

While you're out there,
cleaning up my generation's mess,

I'll be on the sidelines,
cheering you on.

-Can I come, too?
-Sure! It'll be a family outing.

Morning, Winston.

You've worn that suit every day
this week.

I have, indeed. Lunch date today.

-Bringing my "A" game.
-Cecil.

This is coming from the heart,
you need to change it up.

But it's the fanciest thing I own.
Feel that!

My skin can't go back to polyester.

-Then buy another fancy suit.
-I didn't even buy this one.

It's super expensive.

Let's hit the stores after work.

We can "Pretty Woman" you.

Find something
you can wear on a second date?

Yeah, I'd love that. Thanks!

Straight boys.

1. PROCRASTINATION

1. PROCRASTINATION
2. INSTANT GRATIFICATION

LOVE A MAN IN UNIFORM.
STILL IN BED?

MAYBE. WANT COMPANY?

-Back in a couple hours. Sure.
-New client?

Mr. Svensson!
This came in by courier first thing.

It's from the Law Society.

I can't believe
she lodged a complaint against me!

-Who?
-Crystal Steele.

We're in a horror movie.
That woman just keeps coming back.

-What's her complaint?
-That I "breached my fiduciary duty".

So, hate-mongering isn't enough,
now she's graduated to slander.

What outrageous lies has she been
concocting about you?

That I started dating her
while she was still my client.

Are you sure this is okay?

Thought I wasn't allowed
in the house.

We can stop if you want.

What was that?

Hey, take your shoes off inside.

-Don't be such a narc.
-Wednesdays! They get out at noon!

Come on. Hurry! Here.

-Hurry up! Jump off the balcony!
-Are you crazy? I'll break my ankle!

Hide in the closet. Go! Go.

-Mom? What are you doing home?
-Hey, Peanut.

You're that fireman at my school.

Yeah. He was just here
checking the smoke detectors.

Good news, they're working!

The death rate
from house fires

is twice as high in homes
without detectors.

Actually, I did know that.

I love my grandparents.
But they don't get it.

Can you give me an example?

Well, we used to sleep over,
so they bought us bunkbeds.

That sounds nice.
-No!

Fast furniture goes to landfills.

If you put lined up all the discarded
mattresses, they'd circle the planet!

You're really passionate
about this.

Everyone should be.
That's why we do these rallies.

-Do you always speak at them?
-Most of the time.

-I also have a YouTube channel.
-Wow.

-Did you come up with that idea?
-My dad got me started.

He said Greta Thunberg gets
more attention than any adult could.

What else do you like to do? I heard
you're quite the soccer player.

-I was a pretty good goalie.
-You don't play anymore?

We don't live in a world
where you can just play soccer

or have sleepovers and pretend
nothing's wrong.

The Earth is in trouble.

The only thing that matters
is trying to save it.

Where have you been?

-Don't touch my lunch.
-Wouldn't be this one, would it?

-How'd it go with Cedar?
-She's really invested.

Saving the planet
is a burden for anyone.

Especially a 10-year-old.

A lot of children suffer
from climate anxiety.

Cedar might be unsure of her future.

Due to what Magnus
is saying to her?

He's not wrong.
Climate change is terrifying.

But it's all Cedar
seems to think about.

Harry needs to see you in his office.
Now.

-Someone's in trouble!
-Abigail, grow up.

-What's your report gonna say?
-I'm not giving any recommendations.

Just sharing the details.

Right. But not all the details?
Anything that could be misconstrued

as negligence?

Here's another word
for your moral inventory.

"Witness tampering".

That's two words.

She said you told her to take
a lesser settlement

-so you could date.
-Absurd!

Were you dating Crystal
at the time?

It may have been a small overlap.
You know how long paperwork takes.

Harry has a hearing
at the Law Society tomorrow.

-You want me to represent you?
-It will be straightforward.

We'll minimize it and
say she's manipulating the truth.

Belligerence will only escalate it.

If I'm representing you,
we need to follow the three "C"s,

cooperation, compliance,
and contrition.

-I knew this was a bad idea.
-We need him.

Daniel's reputation
is above reproach.

-Fine.
-They may try to establish a pattern.

If there are any other women
you dated while they were

actively your clients, tell me now.

I won't respond to accusations
that haven't been made.

I'll be completely transparent about
Crystal, but that's where it ends.

-What was that all about?
-I need to check on our receivables.

Somebody's favorite,
Chicken parmesan!

-From Whole Foods or Urban Fare?
-How about from scratch?

Stick with Whole Foods next time.

-I like it.
-Thank you, Nico.

Did the fireman say anything
about carbon-monoxide detectors?

How about a B.S. detector?

-Sofia, don't.
-Don't what?

Dad would like to hear a fireman
came over today.

He'll be glad to know our house
is safe.

It might be best if we don't
mention this to him.

Why not?

I was supposed to schedule
that inspection weeks ago.

Turns out a couple of the batteries
were dead.

Can this just be our little secret?

Speaking of secrets,
I have a confession.

You were right.
I'm not attending that rally.

Singhal's new movie is out
and I'm watching it with friends.

One of them is Riley,
the boy I've been texting.

-Come home right after the movie.
-Thanks, Mother.

Wait, so you're just gonna let her
skip class to hang out with a boy?

Only because we'll get
some one-on-one time.

Tell your friends and family.

Post on social-media.

We'll be here again next week,
so sign up for updates.

-I thought you said one-on-one time?
-Cecil doesn't count.

It is my pleasure to introduce
our next speaker,

a young trailblazer and creator
of the popular YouTube site,

"No Planet B", my extraordinary
daughter, Cedar Sundstrom!

It's great to see so many people,
fighting for our planet.

But the truth is, all our recycling,
paper straws,

and bike rides won't matter,

not when our government
keeps allowing greedy corporations

to choke our air with poison,

fill our oceans with plastic
and rip open our Earth for oil.

They've created an apocalypse,
wildfires,

hurricanes, floods, disease.

We have less than seven years
to stave off our extinction.

It's time the powers-that-be
stop the "blah, blah, blah,"

as Greta puts it,
and start taking action.

Real action! Not tomorrow. Today!

IT'S GETTING HOT IN HERE

She was amazing.
Can we plant a tree this weekend?

Absolutely.

-Are you okay?
-I feel wheezy.

-Do you think it's all the CO2?
-What a useless speech.

-You missed the talking points.
-I couldn't remember them all!

Then you practice. Did you even
mean what you were saying?

-Do you care about the planet?
-I'm sorry!

Delete that video
and take Nico for ice cream.

Sold!

Thank you for never yelling at me
like that.

How often do you talk to them
that way?

You just caught me at a bad moment.

You're lucky Cecil was filming.
If anyone else had seen that...

Did you even see how incredible
she was up there?

I'm hard on her because I know
how much more she can do.

Never talk to your kids that way.

-Ever!
-Yeah.

-Are they having a party?
-It's a sit-in.

Oh, for what?

For factories to stop making them out
of polyester.

It's bad for the environment.

I make my own stuffies
from old clothes and pinecones.

This one reminds me of Penelope.

-Who's Penelope?
-Grandma and Grandpa's dog.

-You like dogs?
-But we can't have one.

-Allergies?
-Making their food causes pollution.

And 5.1 million tons of dog poop
goes into plastic bags every year.

When did you last see Penelope
and your grandparents?

It's been a long time.

We've been busy
and my grandparents got a pool.

-Is that a bad thing?
-Dad says it uses too much energy.

I wanted to play Marco Polo
with my friends

but that was just my selfish voice
talking.

Looking sharp
in your second-date suit, Cecil.

What's the point in dating
when the world's ending?

We just came from the climate rally.

-Stepping it up, Cecile. Nicely done!
-Thank you, sir.

And where are you going?

I know you can hear me.
All three of you!

-What's up with them?
-I need to take a bio-break.

We're here to pick up River.

-Oh.
-Oh.

Why don't you two go have
some snacks in the kitchen?

-Yeah. Go ahead.
-Okay.

We can just head in here.

-They miss their grandparents.
-They're allowed to see them.

Just not at Disneyland.

Or their home, because they have
a pool and a dog.

Whether you realize it or not,

you're influencing how your children
see your in-laws.

-Nothing I say is untrue.
-You're alienating your kids.

And not just from their grandparents.
Cedar quit soccer.

River thinks he's selfish because
he wants to swim in a pool.

Do you know the energy footprint
of a home pool?

Do you hear yourself?

You'll have to speak to all this
in court.

Dr. Svensson's report will show that
both your children

are anxious and depressed.

River has nightmares.

-He's afraid the world is ending.
-It is!

Climate crisis isn't a happy topic.

My kids are terrified
because no one else cares.

We spend our days
like everything is normal,

but our world is dying.

How is it that no one gets that?

No one is denying
the work you're doing is important.

If I think about how bad things are,
I wouldn't be able to get out of bed.

If you want to keep your children,
they need a climate break.

There is no proof their relationship
had any impact on her settlement.

Should he have waited longer before
they started a relationship?

In hindsight, yes.

We hope you'll recognize
this was a lapse in judgment.

To be clear, you're saying this was
an isolated incident?

That Ms. Steele was the only client
that Mr. Svensson has dated?

Active client, yes.

A few of your former clients
beg to differ.

These complaints were lodged earlier
today,

and they demonstrate a troubling
pattern of behavior, Mr. Svensson.

We will refer this to the
Professional Conduct Committee

for further consideration.

You'll be hearing from us
in due course.

Don't even think of saying
"I told you so."

Okay, I'd better get home.

The kids get cranky if I don't
have dinner on the table by six.

Uh-huh.

Some friends of mine are having
a barbecue tomorrow night.

They'd love to meet you.

I've met your friends before,
remember?

While sitting on the toilet.

Not my roommates.
These are real adults.

Married, with babies.

I'm the last holdout in this group.

I didn't mean--

I don't want to re-open
that conversation.

I like the way things are.

And your kids seem cool.

Okay, Nico seems cool.
Sofia seems terrifying.

Someday, I can get to know them.

As long as I have you,
that'll be enough.

Riley again?

-He's in your grade, right?
-No inappropriate age gap here.

Unlike other couples I could mention.

Mom, that girl from the climate rally
is on the news!

-They're showing her speech?
-No!

Drivers on the Burrard Street Bridge
witnessed a terrifying sight.

A young girl hanging from a window,

trying to get her message across
about climate change.

-I don't know what to tell you.
-Cedar!

Oh, man.

What the hell were you thinking?

-She could've been killed.
-This wasn't me.

-She did it on her own.
-She did it for you!

Was this really not your fault?

No! I talked to them about
taking a break.

I thought it was okay, I check
her bed this morning, she's gone.

Then my phone starts going off.

This could've had
a very different ending.

Yeah, I know! I know.

Look at all the attention.
She might make the national news.

This is exactly the kind of exposure
we've been--

Stop. Stop talking.

If your daughter had taken
one misstep...

I'm out.

Our firm can no longer represent you.

A little further, almost there.

-And turn. And open your eyes!
-Oh! Harry. Did you--

Have all this delivered by Antonia
from The Twisted Fork?

It's your birthday.
You should get everything you want.

Is that banana-stuffed French toast?

Wait, before you dig in,
I have another surprise.

-Huh.
-Is something wrong?

It's not the way I remembered it.
Looks kind of frumpy.

You're serious.

You know, maybe I will take you up
on that offer,

shop for something new and sparkly!

Excellent.

You dropped him without asking me?

Daniel, he was excited
about the publicity.

For once, I agree with
your rash decision.

Hey, Kelly.

Lucy forgot her lunch and she's busy,
I'll leave it in the fridge.

-I'll let her know you stopped by.
-Thanks.

Oh, this is Abigail.

-Hi. Nice to meet you.
-Same. Heard you liked my lasagna.

That's a testament to your cooking.

Lucy told me about the issues
you're working through.

-"Issues"?
-I hope I'm not overstepping, but if

you need to talk, I know a therapist
that would be a great fit.

Mr. Sundstrom's here to see you.

Daniel and I are agreed, Magnus.

-We're not changing our minds.
-I know.

Cedar could have been--

If anything happened to either
of my kids, I'd never forgive myself.

They deserve a childhood.

-So you're taking a step back?
-No.

I'll let them live with my in-laws
so I can keep going.

Are you sure this is what's best
for Cedar and River?

Someone has to fight for
their future.

We're rocking his back-float,
when there's a whistle.

Everybody's scrambling out of there--

-Code brown?
-Yes!

Some kid fouled the pool.
At least, I think it was a kid.

-Time to play fairy and dragon!
-All right! Let's go!

-Here comes the dragon!
-No, not you.

Come on!

Duty calls.

Since I'm free, I'll just--

-Looks like they've done this before.
-He's so great with kids.

-Have you two talked about--
-I already have two.

Well past the fairy-wing stage.

Aidan's always wanted
a big family.

Just think, you'd have built-in
babysitters with your older ones.

-Everything all right?
-Yeah.

Actually, no.

You're great with kids, Aidan.

You make it sound like that's bad.

You've convinced yourself
that mine will be enough for you.

-They will be.
-I know you'd be great with them...

but they're teenagers.

You'd miss out on...

-so much.
-Like what?

Sleepless nights? Colic?

-Changing diapers?
-First words.

Sleepy cuddles.

Bedtime stories and piggy-back rides
and playing dragon and fairy.

So you think you know what I want
better than I do?

Yes.

You want to be a father.

I can't be the reason you're not.

This isn't fair.

You'll be able to see your dad
whenever you like.

I don't want to move!
I don't want him

doing everything on his own.

-He needs our help!
-Maybe you can help us.

Your grandpa and I could plant
a vegetable garden.

Maybe you could show us
how to build a proper compost pile.

-That's small potatoes.
-Doesn't mean it's unimportant.

Think of all the things you can teach
them.

Do you think Penelope
remembers me?

River, how could she forget you?

Just in from the Law Society.

Let's see how much
they're gouging me for.

Now, how much is the fine?

I can't believe this. They're making
an example out of me.

-What?
-A fine and pro bono?

I've been suspended
from practicing law.
