00:00Previously on Family Law.
00:01No, this looks good. I want you.
00:03I mean, well, I want to work with you.
00:06I want to work with you, too.
00:07Seriously, watching you navigate your abusive ex
00:10while she stalked you on air
00:12solidified your badassery.
00:14Oh, my God. He looks like a tiny
00:16Benjamin Button. That's her baby.
00:18Troy is young. He's tech-savvy.
00:20He also gets paid half what I do.
00:22I'm not an idiot. If I resign,
00:24I don't get a severance package.
00:26And I expect a great
00:28severance package.
00:30I did it. I had my slut phased.
00:33Harry's offense.
00:35Will you marry me?
00:36I would love nothing more
00:38than to marry you.
00:44Your father and I have something to tell you.
00:46You're getting married.
00:48How did you know?
00:49Intuition. Plus, there's that giant
00:52disco ball on your hand.
00:54Well, go on, assail us with your disapproval.
00:56You're going to do what you're going to do.
00:57That's all you have to say?
01:00I'm resigned.
01:02So, when's the big day?
01:05Who's invited?
01:06Uh, the details will get sorted.
01:08You mean, Joanne will sort them
01:09and you'll say yes?
01:11Please don't share this news with your siblings.
01:13I'd like them to hear it from me.
01:14Yeah, because I'm just bursting to tell them.
01:20Well, our sarcastic daughter
01:22raises a good point.
01:24How long do you want our list to be?
01:25Just family?
01:27Other than the children,
01:28I don't have much family to invite.
01:30Well, there's your brother.
01:31I haven't spoken to William in years.
01:35Well, this could give you a chance
01:36to mend things.
01:38There is nothing to mend.
01:46Well, just one more month.
01:50So, that's it.
01:52Your last day.
01:53Do you have to retire?
01:54You're still in your prime.
01:56I'll piss it.
01:57It won't be the same.
01:58Who will send reminders
01:59when it's someone's birthday?
02:00Who filled the candy bowl?
02:02You can always fill it up yourself.
02:04Tastes better when you fill it.
02:06Things will run just fine without me.
02:08Peterson's office manager
02:09seems perfectly capable.
02:11He'll visit tomorrow
02:12to get a lay of the land.
02:13I hope that won't be awkward for you.
02:16Why would that be awkward?
02:19Oh, right.
02:20You two had...
02:21Morning, Mr. Spence.
02:22Morning, Winston.
02:24Good energy.
02:29Dad called me on my way in.
02:32So you know.
02:34The guy who says clients are deluded
02:35for remarrying an ex
02:37is remarrying his ex.
02:39How are you taking it?
02:41Well, they're more annoying
02:43when they're not together.
02:45So, net positive.
02:47This means Joanne will be my stepmom.
02:49Which means you'll be my half-brother
02:51and my stepbrother.
02:53Dad, that's wonderful news.
02:58I'm so relieved, Lucy Goosey.
03:01I love Joanne.
03:03She makes you happy.
03:04That's all I want.
03:06Mom would want that, too.
03:08I have my own news.
03:11I'm looking for new office space.
03:12I've seen some affordable places.
03:15One is shared with other therapists.
03:17You're willing to give up
03:18prime real estate for a shared space?
03:20Well, real estate you pay for.
03:22Which I'm happy to do.
03:24I can't have my dad pay my rent forever.
03:25I need to prove to myself
03:26that I can do this on my own.
03:29When I quit my first job
03:31to start my own firm,
03:33it was daunting.
03:36It was also the best decision of my life.
03:44Thanks for waiting, Mr. Cook.
03:49Please.
03:50Kenneth is fine.
03:52Like the courtyard.
03:56Bees are pollinating.
03:57Aphys mellifera.
03:58That's the most common species.
04:02I didn't know that.
04:04How can I help you, Kenneth?
04:06My late father set up a trust fund for me.
04:13Every few years,
04:14the bank's trustee gives me a drawdown
04:16as long as I meet the stipulations.
04:19Like what?
04:20I got the first $30,000 when I turned 21,
04:23but only if I graduated from college.
04:26I got the next drawdown when I turned 25,
04:28but only if I worked at my father's office.
04:30He made that a stipulation.
04:33He was pretty controlling.
04:36I can relate.
04:38I was supposed to get the next drawdown
04:39when I turned 35 last month,
04:43$100,000,
04:44but they'll only give me the money
04:45as long as I'm in a stable,
04:48monogamous relationship.
04:49And you're not in a relationship.
04:51No, I am.
04:55Berta with me,
04:56would you like to meet her?
05:03This is Vanessa.
05:05Hello. Nice to meet you.
05:06You can't prove it.
05:15Oh, oh.
05:16You got nothing legit.
05:18Oh, oh.
05:19The glove don't fit.
05:20Oh, oh.
05:21You got it equipped.
05:22Oh, oh.
05:24The charges won't stick,
05:25cause I ain't no sucker.
05:27Ain't your lollipop.
05:29But you can't kiss my sweet.
05:31Uh-huh.
05:32Never gonna stop.
05:33Never gonna stop.
05:34Never gonna stop.
05:35Never gonna stop.
05:35I can't prove it.
05:36Oh, oh.
05:39So you're dating a doll?
05:41We call them synthetic partners.
05:44We.
05:44Idolaters.
05:46There are more of you?
05:47Indeed.
05:49It's Vanessa's response system.
05:51She's programmed to engage in conversation.
05:54Right, Vanessa?
05:55Right, honey.
05:56Speaking of honey,
05:57did you know bees need two million flowers
05:58to make one pound of honey?
06:00She likes bees.
06:02You have that in common.
06:04You do know that she's not real.
06:07I know she's not a person.
06:11But I love her like one.
06:13The trustee says that this doesn't count
06:15as a loving relationship.
06:18And you want me to prove it does?
06:19I'm in love.
06:21That should be enough.
06:23Well said.
06:23You go, Kenneth.
06:24She's a sex doll.
06:30Sounds like this guy just programmed her
06:31to say whatever he wants.
06:33It's not a relationship.
06:34It's playtime.
06:35I see the appeal of an AI girlfriend.
06:37Fewer opinions, fewer arguments.
06:39Fewer opinions?
06:41Oh, you're definitely marrying the wrong woman.
06:43I like a strong woman with a mind of her own.
06:45Roz always challenges me.
06:47To be fair, that's not hard.
06:48I feel for Kenneth.
06:49More and more people are feeling lonely and isolated.
06:53His way of coping might be unconventional,
06:55but if it makes him feel better...
06:56Eleanor's mother is in a nursing home.
06:58The residents interact with care robots.
07:00Are they dating the robots?
07:02Not as far as I know,
07:03but it's still companionship.
07:05Come on, it's weird.
07:06Says the man who carries his dog around like a baby
07:08and talks to him in that ridiculous voice.
07:13Ignore him, Craigie-Wiggy.
07:15Much as I'd love to represent Kenneth,
07:16I've got a lot on my plate right now,
07:18so I'm going to need you to run with this case.
07:20Make me.
07:23You and your husband drew up this separation agreement?
07:26We didn't think we needed lawyers.
07:28But there's one term we can't agree on.
07:31What's replica?
07:34Two years ago, our daughter Libby drowned in our pool.
07:38Jessica, I'm so sorry.
07:42I thought we were grieving together.
07:45Then he hired a company to make a replica of our daughter.
07:49Ugh, I'm afraid I don't understand.
07:52Quantum Avatar.
07:53They're an AI company.
07:55They make digital copies of people
07:57using their photos and voice recordings.
08:00One day, Emil handed me a pair of VR goggles
08:03and asked me to look through them,
08:05and there was Libby,
08:09a virtual entity that looks and talks
08:12just like our daughter.
08:14I can't bear to look at it,
08:17but Emil spends hours interacting with it.
08:21You want to delete it?
08:23Is there any harm in letting Emil have this for himself?
08:27I don't want that thing out there in the world.
08:31It's beyond morbid.
08:32It's disrespectful to Libby's memory.
08:36I could try to get you ownership of the digital assets.
08:40If you own the replica,
08:41you can decide what happens to it.
08:44But before we go that route,
08:47I suggest we bring in Emil.
08:49Promise me you're going to call off this wedding.
09:00Run.
09:00Don't walk from that altar.
09:02Are you sure, Dr. Svensson?
09:04I'm excited for you.
09:06You've got this, Jasmine.
09:08Well, that's all for today.
09:09And remember, be kind to yourself.
09:14Nice job.
09:16The internet just got another soundbite.
09:18Please don't share it with me.
09:19I still can't stand listening to my own voice.
09:22What are you talking about?
09:22You sound great.
09:25Any plans tonight?
09:26I've got a stack of client notes to review.
09:28You?
09:29Some friends invited me to this really big party,
09:32so I think I'll stay and order a cheeseburger.
09:35Put on Notting Hill,
09:36and it sounds like the perfect night.
09:37It's more of a date movie,
09:39and alas, I am woefully single.
09:48You were reaching for the door handle, aren't you?
09:54Yep.
10:03This case is unwinnable.
10:08How can I argue he's in a relationship
10:09when Vanessa isn't real?
10:11Neither was Bruce Wayne,
10:12yet 12-year-old me still wanted to marry him.
10:14Yeah, but you didn't actually think he was real.
10:16Dating a doll is weird,
10:18but maybe your client thinks it's his only option.
10:21Join an app.
10:22Meet a nice girl who's waterproof.
10:23People are intimidating.
10:25Why do you think I'm in the gaming world?
10:27Some of us are more comfortable
10:28with fictional characters.
10:30You seem pretty comfortable
10:31approaching a total stranger at the bar.
10:34Do one thing a week outside of your comfort zone.
10:38Tip seven from an introvert's guide to being charming.
10:41I was your weekly challenge.
10:43You told me that was a bet.
10:44I lied.
10:46Did your book have a list of cheesy pickup lines?
10:48Well, I'm not the one who fell for it.
10:50Oh.
10:50Oh.
10:54It's a miracle.
10:55Both Abigail and Sophia are out of the house.
10:58Why don't I slip out of this suit
11:01and not into those pajamas that Abigail bought me?
11:06Actually, you may want to hold off on that.
11:08Oh, could you answer that?
11:21Harrison.
11:23Pull him.
11:29Why did you do this?
11:31Because he's your brother,
11:33and whatever happened between the two of you,
11:35it's time to clear the air.
11:36Nothing happened.
11:37We drifted apart naturally.
11:39I stopped calling him.
11:40He did the same,
11:41and we both realized we liked it better that way.
11:43Hmm?
11:43If that's true, why is he here?
11:47How's Caroline?
11:48Living her best life in Belize with her third husband.
11:52We broke it off years ago.
11:54I'm sorry to hear that.
11:55How did Cameron take it?
11:56He took his mother's side.
11:58For what it's worth,
12:02until recently,
12:03my eldest wanted nothing to do with me.
12:07Now, we're working together,
12:08and it's quite pleasant, mostly.
12:11Hmm.
12:13How long has it been since we last spoke?
12:15Father's funeral.
12:19That reminds me.
12:20I was going through the attic the other day.
12:25I found these.
12:28Brings back memories, doesn't it?
12:30Certainly does.
12:32Dad used to make us go around
12:34whenever we got into an argument.
12:37What was it he always said?
12:38If it matters so much to you two,
12:41fight for it.
12:42And sometimes in life,
12:44you had to take it on the chin.
12:45Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
12:49I'm glad you ain't called.
12:51It's been far too long.
13:00So you kissed your boss
13:02without getting her consent?
13:05I don't know how I'm going to face her tomorrow.
13:07Yeah.
13:08You should quit the show.
13:09Really?
13:10No.
13:10It might be weird for a while,
13:13but keep it time.
13:14It'll blow over.
13:16I gotta say,
13:16there's something hilarious
13:17about a therapist
13:18misreading social cues.
13:20There was a vibe,
13:21or I thought there was.
13:23Sounds like someone has a crush.
13:25How perceptive of you.
13:26Maybe you should have your own radio show.
13:28Yeah, get me in touch with Robin.
13:30Tell her I promise
13:30not to sexually harass her.
13:31Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
13:35We are looking particularly dashing.
13:39Winston's about to woo
13:40a certain office manager.
13:42I gave him my number
13:43at the retreat,
13:43and he's only texted me twice.
13:45It's like communicating
13:46with a straight guy,
13:47which just makes me like him more.
13:50But we won't unpack that.
13:54Troy, nice to see you again.
13:56Thanks for having me.
13:57I'm super excited
13:57to start the tour.
13:58Oh, first stop, the kitchen.
14:00Can I fix you a tea or coffee?
14:01Tea sounds lovely.
14:02Hey, sup.
14:13Ah.
14:15Yeah.
14:17Interesting.
14:18Shut up.
14:20The trust stipulates
14:21my client needs to be
14:22in a long-term relationship.
14:24He has been in one for three years.
14:26With a doll?
14:26The correct term
14:30is synthetic partner.
14:31Whatever you call it,
14:32it doesn't qualify.
14:34The late Mr. Cook's intention
14:35behind the trust is clear.
14:37Every stipulation
14:37was a nudge
14:38for Kenneth
14:39to foster relationships.
14:41The trustee
14:41will not authorize
14:42the drawdown
14:42until Kenneth can prove
14:43that he is in a stable,
14:45monogamous relationship
14:46with a human.
14:49Ah.
14:51May I be excused?
14:53You may.
14:53Okay.
14:53Great, I think
15:01you just made
15:01my client cry.
15:02Look, I'm not judging.
15:04I get why he'd choose a doll.
15:06Body stays tight,
15:07no PMS,
15:08program to say
15:09whatever you want.
15:10You think Vanessa
15:11has a sister?
15:12Why are we friends?
15:15This is my scheduling system.
15:18Yellow for birthdays,
15:19green for holidays.
15:20Would you look
15:21at that handwriting?
15:22Who says
15:24Cursor's dad?
15:26We've covered
15:26HR,
15:28inventory,
15:29workstations,
15:30security.
15:32I could show you
15:33where we keep
15:33the sanitation wipes
15:34for the door handles.
15:35You know,
15:35I won't take up
15:36more of your time,
15:37but this was a lot of fun.
15:38Thanks, Jerry.
15:39You're most welcome.
15:45So,
15:45did I ask you out?
15:47Does this look like
15:47the face of someone
15:48who just got asked out?
15:49It's Troy.
15:55He wants to go out
15:56for dinner.
16:02Hi,
16:03I'm Libby.
16:04Can we go
16:05to the quack today?
16:06I want to see
16:07the duck lanes.
16:12What's the quack?
16:14It's Libby's nickname
16:15for her favorite park.
16:16It's a duck pond.
16:17How did the AI
16:19know that?
16:20I sent quantum avatar
16:22photo and video files
16:23of our daughter
16:23to create
16:24the most accurate replica.
16:28So,
16:28those digital assets
16:29belonged
16:30to both parties.
16:33My client wants
16:34ownership
16:34of the replica
16:35as well as
16:36in order prohibiting
16:37anyone from making
16:38another avatar.
16:39I won't let you
16:40destroy it.
16:41My client's not
16:42forcing anyone
16:43to interact with it.
16:44What's the harm
16:45if this is his
16:45private way of grieving?
16:47Jessica should have
16:48had a say
16:49as to whether
16:50the replica
16:50was created
16:51in the first place.
16:52Please,
16:53just let me
16:54keep this part
16:55of Libby.
16:56That thing
16:56isn't Libby.
16:58Why would you
16:59do this?
16:59I got it
17:00so that we would
17:00have something
17:01to remember her by.
17:02No.
17:03You did it
17:04to hurt me.
17:05Hurt you?
17:06Why would I
17:07do that?
17:08To remind me
17:09that it was
17:09my fault.
17:11That I'm the one
17:12that took my eyes
17:12off her.
17:13That I'm the one
17:14that left the
17:14pool gate open.
17:15Jessica,
17:16I have never
17:17blamed you
17:18for what happened.
17:19Every time
17:19I see that thing,
17:21it's like a knife
17:22to my...
17:24Hey,
17:38I need you
17:39to research
17:39quantum avatar.
17:40Yeah,
17:41I've heard of them.
17:41They do artificial
17:42intelligence.
17:43The firm's not about
17:44to replace everyone
17:44with AI.
17:46Right?
17:48Start with
17:48quantum avatar's
17:49policies on IP.
17:51If I'm satisfied
17:51with what you found,
17:53your job is secure.
17:54For now.
18:03Your case sounds
18:04emotionally draining.
18:05Here's a thought.
18:06We are not
18:07swapping cases.
18:08But they're basically
18:08the same.
18:09People using AI
18:10to fill a void.
18:11Well,
18:11I've heard
18:12they're not at all
18:12the same.
18:13This replica
18:13is modeled
18:14after a real
18:15little girl
18:15whose parents
18:16are grieving.
18:16While your client's
18:17doll is AI
18:18with boobs.
18:20Part of me gets
18:21why Emile
18:21had the avatar made,
18:22but I think
18:24he's having trouble
18:25letting go.
18:26Grief isn't the same
18:26for everyone.
18:27When my mom died,
18:28I used to look
18:29for relics
18:29of her everywhere.
18:30I'd hide in her closet
18:31because it still
18:32smelled like her.
18:33I used to listen
18:33to your mother's
18:34greeting on our
18:34answering machine.
18:35When you and mom
18:36messed up,
18:37it always made me laugh.
18:38Hi,
18:39hi.
18:40What brings
18:40you two here?
18:41Uh,
18:42William wanted
18:42to see the firm.
18:43And my niece
18:44is a nephew.
18:45Remember your
18:46Uncle Bill?
18:47Sure,
18:48I remember.
18:48You bought me
18:49that toy drum set.
18:52You got me
18:53the stuffed animal.
18:54The one that
18:54repeated everything
18:55you said
18:55in the Chipmunk Boys?
18:56Yep.
18:57Squeaky Selma.
18:58That toy was designed
18:59to drive me nuts.
19:00Why do you think
19:00I bought it?
19:02And you have
19:03no idea who I am.
19:05Sorry.
19:05Don't be.
19:06You were in diapers
19:07the last time I saw you.
19:08Do you still live
19:08in, um, Montreal?
19:10No.
19:10I've been in Victoria
19:11for years.
19:13Nice setup, Harrison.
19:14Beats the shoebox
19:15I started out in.
19:16Ah, higher up, too.
19:17Glad to see you got
19:18over your fear of heights.
19:19You were afraid
19:20of heights?
19:20Terrified.
19:22One time,
19:22a dog chased him
19:23up a tree.
19:24Harrison was too
19:24afraid to climb down.
19:26A firefighter
19:27had to retrieve him
19:27like a scared kitten.
19:29The height wasn't
19:29the concern.
19:30It was the rabid dog.
19:31Oh, you mean
19:31the neighbor's
19:32toy poodle?
19:33Before I forget,
19:35you all are invited
19:36to my house
19:37for dinner tomorrow night.
19:38Sounds like fun.
19:39Danny, you should
19:40bring Jude.
19:41I'd like to meet
19:42the mother
19:43of my future grandchild.
19:44I'll see if she's free.
19:46Let me see your office,
19:47Harrison.
19:47Of course.
19:50Ooh.
19:52I forgot Dad
19:53even had a brother.
19:54Why am I just
19:55meeting him now?
19:56Extra weird,
19:57considering he's been
19:58in Victoria all this time.
19:59Gotta fly.
20:00I have to see a man
20:01about a doll.
20:02Have fun with
20:03Barbie and Kenneth.
20:12Daniel, over here.
20:17You brought Vanessa.
20:19Why?
20:21I kept winking
20:22last night,
20:23so I took her
20:24to have her
20:24hardware checked.
20:26How do you feel, Vanessa?
20:27Never better, Kenny.
20:30Could've left her in the car.
20:33So someone
20:34could kidnap her?
20:37Mr. Kroll
20:38and I kept talking
20:38after you left.
20:39The trustee
20:40might authorize
20:40the drawdown
20:41if you declare
20:42you're at least
20:43open to dating
20:44a person.
20:45A real one.
20:46Oh, I'm not
20:47into polyamory.
20:48I'm very traditional.
20:50Nothing about this
20:51is traditional.
20:52Try to look at it
20:53from the other side.
20:54You have to admit
20:55this relationship
20:56is a little old.
20:58You don't need
20:59to approve
21:00of our relationship.
21:01You just need
21:01to represent me.
21:05Excuse me.
21:06I'm gonna use
21:06the facilities.
21:07Please watch her.
21:08No, don't.
21:10Wait.
21:10It's not mine.
21:21So the whole coffee shop
21:28is staring
21:29and he's not even phased.
21:30Like how you're phased?
21:32People took pictures.
21:32Someone call me a perv.
21:34I have a client in ten.
21:35What do you need?
21:36I need
21:37to prove
21:38Kenneth's relationship
21:38with Vanessa
21:39meets the same requirements
21:40as if she were real.
21:41Can you talk to him, please?
21:43You want me to prove
21:44your client
21:44is in a stable,
21:45monogamous relationship
21:46with a doll?
21:48Consider it more fodder
21:49for your radio show.
21:53Counting the days
21:54till our kids
21:54get home from Europe?
21:55Oh, yeah.
21:57It'll be insufferable,
21:58though,
21:58don't you think?
22:00I bet good money
22:01one of them
22:01pulls a Madonna
22:02and returns home
22:03with a fake accent.
22:06My real estate agent
22:07has interesting taste.
22:09Can I tempt you
22:09with a bag
22:10of pickled-flavored popcorn?
22:12Uh, generous,
22:13but I'll pass.
22:17How about this?
22:18Token of my gratitude
22:19for not falling
22:20through these floors.
22:22There's a nice
22:23bottle of wine.
22:24You sure don't want it?
22:26I can't.
22:28I'm an alcoholic.
22:30Been sober
22:30almost two years.
22:32Oh, okay.
22:33Well, yeah,
22:34sure, I'll take it.
22:35Thanks.
22:42There's a family dinner
22:43tomorrow and you're invited
22:44if you're interested.
22:46Sure.
22:47I'd like to see
22:47what other weird
22:48family traits
22:48are coming down the line.
22:51So,
22:51how's the doll case?
22:53It would be easier
22:54if my client
22:54wasn't dating a doll.
22:55Well, I put more blame
22:56on his dead dad.
22:57I mean,
22:57he's the one
22:57bribing his son
22:58into being in a relationship.
23:00Maybe he
23:01didn't want him
23:02to end up alone.
23:03Sounds like my parents.
23:05All they ever want to do
23:06is pressure me
23:06to find a husband.
23:07Meanwhile,
23:08they can't stand
23:08being in the same room together.
23:09And some people
23:10would rather be married
23:11than happy.
23:12Take your point.
23:14My mom left my dad
23:15and she never looked back.
23:17And then,
23:17there's us.
23:18We're single
23:19and happy
23:20and well-adjusted.
23:22At least I am.
23:23What do you think
23:33I should wear tonight?
23:34Well,
23:34you know what they say.
23:36Can't go wrong
23:36with a bolo tie.
23:38No one says that.
23:39My mom says that.
23:41Why are you two
23:42always huddled here gossiping?
23:43Does this look like
23:44a slumber party?
23:48Someone's in a mood.
23:50Is this about William?
23:51Because you said
23:51you'd give him
23:52a fair shot.
23:53I am.
23:54But he is determined
23:55to belittle me.
23:57Every story he shares
23:58is another jab.
24:00Maybe that's just
24:01his way of connecting.
24:02I don't know
24:03how I can tolerate
24:04another two nights of this.
24:06Have a little compassion.
24:08His wife left him.
24:09He's estranged from his son.
24:11You're his only family.
24:12Lucky me.
24:16When I was a kid,
24:17a bumblebee
24:18flew into our house.
24:20His wing was damaged,
24:22so I put him
24:23in a terrarium.
24:24I fed him sugar water
24:26every day
24:27until he got better.
24:28Then I let him go
24:29back to his hive.
24:32You seem passionate
24:33about bees.
24:34I like the way
24:35they communicate.
24:37When bees want something,
24:39they dance,
24:40release pheromones.
24:42Their social bonds
24:43come so easily.
24:45What's your experience
24:47like meeting people?
24:48I still get nervous
24:50around my coworkers,
24:51but Vanessa helps.
24:53Sometimes she and I
24:55come up with icebreakers.
24:56They work, too.
24:57People invite me
24:58to sit with them
24:58at lunch.
24:59And there's this
25:00nature club
25:00at the community center.
25:01I never would have
25:02joined unless Vanessa
25:03hyped me up.
25:06I know she's just
25:07programmed to be supportive,
25:11but when Vanessa says
25:15that she believes in me,
25:17I believe in me.
25:20Just a little bit.
25:22At the very least,
25:27Kenneth perceives himself
25:28to be in a relationship.
25:29Would you say it's healthy?
25:31It's complicated.
25:33Kenneth's been hurt
25:33by people,
25:34so he's clinging to something
25:35that makes him feel safe.
25:37Yannick will argue
25:38she's just distracting him
25:39from meeting real people.
25:41Actually, Vanessa seems
25:42to be helping him
25:43meet new people.
25:44She gives him the confidence
25:45to come out of his shell.
25:46I can't say whether this qualifies
25:48as a stable monogamous relationship,
25:50but having Vanessa in his life
25:52encourages him to make friends.
25:54Just not a girlfriend.
25:56I looked into Quantum Avatar's
25:58license and release agreement.
26:00Check out this clause.
26:03We retain the right
26:04to reproduce and sell
26:06protected material
26:07to third parties.
26:09So I did some more digging
26:10and found a press release.
26:11Turns out Quantum Avatar
26:12partnered with another company.
26:15That's Minnie's.
26:16It's a food manufacturing company.
26:20Hello.
26:21When I'm hungry,
26:21she was my job secure.
26:22My mom's not yet
26:23what to make me.
26:25Try her new instant soup mix.
26:28Pour water and...
26:30Mmm.
26:31Minnie, mix it up.
26:39Mmm.
26:41Minnie, mix it up.
26:44How did our daughter
26:45end up in a commercial?
26:46Quantum Avatar owns the intellectual rights
26:50of all AI it generates.
26:52Meaning they can use the AI
26:54however they want,
26:55even sell it
26:56to third parties
26:57like Minnie's.
26:58So everything I've ever shared
26:59about Lippy
27:00belongs to them.
27:02They can just
27:03own our daughter's memory?
27:05We can fight this.
27:07We'll seek an injunction
27:08to pull Lippy's image
27:09from the Minnie's ad campaign.
27:10And there's an excellent chance
27:12they'll comply.
27:13They probably don't even know
27:13how the replica was generated.
27:14We'll demand Quantum Avatar
27:16relinquish all rights
27:17to the replica
27:18so they never use it again.
27:20What if they say no?
27:21We go public.
27:23Exploding the grief
27:24of parents
27:25is not a good look.
27:27Don't change yourself.
27:41Change your perspective.
27:42Be kind to yourself, Lawrence.
27:52Great job.
27:53Thanks.
27:53Uh, the other day
27:57I thought you were trying to,
27:59you know, so I, you know.
28:01We don't need a play-by-play.
28:03I just don't want things
28:04to get awkward between us.
28:05You're making things
28:06awkward right now.
28:09We work together.
28:10Let's just keep things professional.
28:12Pretend it never happened.
28:14Okay.
28:15Oh, I'm sorry.
28:18I'll let you.
28:27So you two met at that bar
28:29where the broker bros go?
28:31I've been there once
28:31and everything felt sticky.
28:33I did not choose that bar.
28:34My co-workers did.
28:35But you picked him up?
28:36Was it a dare?
28:37Nah.
28:38I just had a few drinks in me.
28:39I regret introducing you two.
28:41This must be the woman
28:42I've heard so much about.
28:43This is Jude.
28:44Jude, my Uncle Bill.
28:45Hi.
28:47When are you going to tie the knot?
28:48Make an honest woman of her.
28:50Oh, it's okay.
28:51I lost my honesty
28:52when I was 16.
28:54Dinner's ready.
28:55Get your butts out here.
28:56Thank you all for coming.
28:59My children,
29:01William,
29:02Jude,
29:04nice to welcome you
29:05into the fold.
29:06And to my beautiful bride-to-be
29:08for bringing us all together.
29:11Cheers.
29:12Cheers.
29:13Cheers.
29:15Okay.
29:15Let's eat.
29:17I'd also like to make a toast.
29:20When Joanne reached out
29:22and told me about the wedding,
29:23I thought,
29:24you're joking.
29:24But no,
29:27you two really are
29:28putting yourselves through that again.
29:30So to Harry and Joanne
29:32and their second shot,
29:34what's the definition of insanity?
29:37Doing the same thing
29:38over and over and...
29:41So, how'd you like the office tour?
29:54It was fine
29:56until Jerry showed me
29:58her scheduling system.
29:59Yikes.
30:00What's wrong with her system?
30:02You mean that mom calendar?
30:04Oh, did you see
30:05that spreadsheet tool?
30:06It is a miracle
30:07Svensson and Svensson
30:08has been running this long.
30:10Jerry's great at what she does.
30:11I'm sure she was
30:12back when pens were quills.
30:15You know,
30:15maybe if she spent
30:16less time handwriting appointments,
30:18she could update her skills
30:19and join us in the modern age.
30:20Jerry doesn't just use
30:24that mom calendar
30:24for appointments.
30:26She records birthdays
30:27and anniversaries
30:28the day Cecil
30:29passed his paralegal exam.
30:32Okay.
30:33Jerry's the beating heart
30:34of our firm.
30:36You should feel honored
30:37to succeed her.
30:39You know what?
30:40I'm allergic to pasta.
30:41Bitch, you picked this place!
30:49It was my third year
30:50in boarding school.
30:52Harrison had just started.
30:53He was miserable.
30:54Cried in the dorms
30:55every night for his mommy.
30:56Oh, that's understandable.
30:58You were like 12?
30:59The other boys
31:00smelled weakness.
31:02So one day,
31:03I'm in the quad.
31:04See these other kids
31:05surround them.
31:06They start hurling
31:07dodgeballs at them.
31:08Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
31:09Oh, didn't cry for mother
31:12after that, did you, Harrison?
31:14So you just stood there
31:15while your younger brother
31:16was being pelted
31:17by dodgeballs?
31:18It was a boys' school.
31:19You might want to rethink
31:20telling that old chestnut.
31:22You don't come out
31:23looking good.
31:24You should learn
31:25how to take a joke.
31:26You should learn
31:27how to tell one.
31:28Well, you've certainly
31:29inherited your mother's mouth.
31:30William.
31:33A word.
31:39You let her talk
31:44to you like that?
31:45That was uncalled for.
31:47Every time you open
31:48your mouth,
31:48it's to insult
31:50my loved ones
31:50or humiliate me.
31:52Oh, come on.
31:53I was just messing around.
31:54When did you become
31:54so thin-skinned?
31:55You've been doing this
31:56a whole life.
31:57You want to bring out
31:58the gloves?
31:58I'll let you take
31:58the first swing.
32:00Fair warning,
32:00I won't go easy.
32:01You never did.
32:02Those gloves were never
32:03for resolving conflicts.
32:05Dad turned every argument
32:08we had into a blood sport.
32:10You're being dramatic.
32:12You were two years
32:13older than me.
32:15You were bigger
32:15and stronger
32:16and Dad knew that.
32:19He wanted to see me
32:20get pummeled
32:21and you gave him
32:22what he wanted.
32:23Every time,
32:25I can forgive you
32:26for what you did.
32:27We were children.
32:28And he was
32:29a tyrant.
32:31I can even tolerate
32:34the way you continue
32:35to humiliate me,
32:36trying to make me feel
32:37like that little kid
32:39in the boxing gloves.
32:42But you
32:43will not go after
32:45my family.
32:51It's the expression
32:52that I feel like
32:53is very Daniel.
32:54Okay, I don't.
32:59William won't be staying
33:01for dessert.
33:03Now, what were we
33:04all talking about?
33:09Jude was showing us
33:10a character she designed.
33:12Look familiar.
33:14You got three guesses
33:14whose forehead that is
33:15and the first two
33:16don't count.
33:17Likeness is uncanny.
33:20He doesn't look
33:21anything like me.
33:22Oh, you keep
33:22telling yourself that.
33:24I mean, we've all
33:25seen that face.
33:27I don't like that much.
33:28The late Mr. Cook
33:32wanted his son
33:33to pursue
33:34a meaningful,
33:35stable relationship.
33:37Now,
33:38not only is this
33:41not what he had
33:43in mind,
33:43it prevents his son
33:45from meeting
33:46the human partner
33:47his father
33:48wanted for him.
33:49Out of respect
33:50for the grantor's
33:51intentions,
33:53the trustee
33:53will not authorize
33:54this drawdown.
33:57Does opposing counsel
33:58have anything to hide?
34:00Your Honor,
34:01this trust stipulation
34:02should be void
34:03because it's founded
34:04on an immoral consideration.
34:06For a moment,
34:07let's forget about the doll.
34:08I'll try.
34:09So what if my client
34:10isn't dating anyone?
34:12Relationships
34:12take all forms.
34:14I'm currently
34:14in a platonic
34:15co-parenting arrangement.
34:16I wouldn't meet
34:17the stipulation
34:17even though
34:18this relationship
34:18is the most stable
34:19I've ever had.
34:20Objection.
34:21How is counsel's
34:22love life
34:22or lack of it
34:23relevant?
34:24Overruled.
34:25I'm curious
34:26where this is going.
34:27My client
34:28is capable
34:28of cultivating
34:29human relationships.
34:30Objection.
34:31He brought
34:32a sex doll
34:33to court.
34:34For some people,
34:35socializing is hard.
34:36So they learn ways
34:37to push themselves
34:38outside their comfort zone.
34:39Vanessa
34:40gives Kenneth that push.
34:41She helps him
34:42build the confidence
34:43to meet people.
34:44Signed affidavits
34:45from Kenneth's colleagues.
34:47They all describe him
34:48the same way.
34:49Quiet, yes,
34:51but a team player
34:52with an endearing
34:53passion for bees.
34:55Some of his colleagues
34:56even describe
34:57Kenneth as a friend.
34:59Your Honor,
34:59my client is not
35:00unstable,
35:01unhappy,
35:02or lonely.
35:03He's just single.
35:05Why prioritize
35:06a romantic relationship
35:07when he already
35:07has a wealth
35:08of connections
35:08that enrich his life?
35:09Forcing him to be
35:10in a committed relationship
35:12violates public policy.
35:15Counsel rests.
35:22I agree, Counsel.
35:24The clause
35:25places an unnecessary
35:26burden
35:27onto the beneficiary.
35:29I hereby order
35:30the trustee
35:31to pay
35:32the drawdown.
35:39Congratulations.
35:40Why'd you say
35:41I was single?
35:42I'm not.
35:44You won.
35:45How about a
35:45thank you, Daniel?
35:47Thank you, Daniel.
35:49You're welcome, Vanessa.
35:53Miss myself.
35:55Winston,
35:55order some pastries
35:56from Boku
35:57and make sure
35:58you get blondies
35:59for Cecile.
36:00Thank you, sir.
36:02I take it
36:02dinner went well?
36:03Very.
36:04And how did
36:09your dinner go?
36:11Not great.
36:12No, no.
36:13What happened?
36:16We had a disagreement.
36:18It's whatever.
36:19Oh.
36:20Will it be weird
36:21working with Troy?
36:22I won't have to.
36:23By the time
36:24he gets here,
36:25I will have started
36:25grad school.
36:26Winston's gap year
36:27is almost up.
36:29Wait,
36:29you're leaving too?
36:31When?
36:32Gap year, Cecil.
36:33Oh.
36:35Now I hear it.
36:37Two friends gone.
36:38This hurts more
36:39than when they
36:39canceled Whippet.
36:40True friends
36:41are never apart.
36:43Perhaps in distance,
36:44but not in heart.
36:45Without you, Jerry,
36:46who will give proverbs
36:47no one asks for?
36:49And without you,
36:50Winston,
36:50who will
36:50answer the phones?
36:57He's got a point.
36:59Really does feel like
37:00the end of something,
37:01doesn't it?
37:03Hey, Jerry,
37:06even though we're
37:06both leaving,
37:07we can still hang out,
37:08right?
37:09Grab brunch?
37:10Let's pick a date,
37:11shall we?
37:17Minnie's was appalled
37:19to discover the origins
37:20of Libby's image,
37:22and Quantum Avatar
37:24has agreed to relinquish
37:25all rights to the replica.
37:26After discussing matters,
37:30my client agrees
37:32to delete the AI.
37:34We can visit her
37:35at Glen Forrest.
37:38Visiting Libby's grave
37:39reminds me of her death.
37:41I just...
37:42wanted to remember her life.
37:45If I could offer
37:46a suggestion,
37:48what about a swing set
37:49in Libby's favorite park
37:51in her name?
37:53It's a beautiful idea.
37:56Emile?
38:08I like when our clients
38:09land on the same page.
38:12Do you think it's possible
38:13that they'll find their way
38:14back to each other?
38:16I hope so.
38:18When Nico gets home,
38:18I'm gonna hug him so hard
38:19his beret's gonna pop off.
38:26I was digging through
38:27some boxes last night.
38:28Look what I found.
38:29Is that...
38:31I'll leave it here.
38:32You can listen to it
38:32when you wish.
38:34Wait.
38:35Will you listen to it with me?
38:41Is this working?
38:43I can't tell.
38:44Oh, wait.
38:45I see the light.
38:46Hello.
38:47You've reached the home
38:48of Monique, Harry,
38:49and Lucy Svensson.
38:51Hello.
38:51Thank you for calling.
38:53We're away from the phone
38:54right now,
38:55so please leave a message
38:56after the beep.
38:58Now, how do I save this?
38:59You hit the button?
39:00I did.
39:01It's not working.
39:02I tried that button.
39:03Why are there so many
39:04useless buttons?
39:05I don't know.
39:06That's fine.
39:07What if we just hang up?
39:09Oh, are we still recording?
39:10All right.
39:13I'm heading out.
39:14Your office should be
39:15moving ready
39:16in the next two weeks.
39:17Thanks.
39:18I love the kitchen cabinets.
39:20Yeah.
39:21Quality storage.
39:25Hey, when this contract's over,
39:28would you, um...
39:31would you be interested
39:32in going out sometime?
39:34You mean, like,
39:35on a date?
39:36Yeah.
39:38Uh...
39:39I'd love to,
39:42but...
39:43I'm gonna have to decline.
39:47Oh.
39:48Oh, sorry.
39:49I...
39:50I guess I misread things.
39:51Oh, no, no.
39:53You didn't.
39:55At the risk of
39:56getting too much information,
39:58I...
39:59have been coupled up
40:00most of my adult life.
40:03I'm at my ex-husband
40:04in university.
40:05My rebound was
40:06supposed to be a blip
40:07and then wasn't.
40:09And my last relationship
40:11didn't...
40:13end well.
40:14I think I need to be
40:15single for a while longer
40:17before I inflict myself
40:18on anyone else.
40:21Well, that...
40:23really was
40:24too much information.
40:27But I get it.
40:35So, how are things
40:40with Robin?
40:42Still awkward.
40:43Well, if it's any comfort,
40:45it'll only be awkward
40:45for as long as you
40:46continue working with her.
40:48Very comforting.
40:49Thanks.
40:50On half of your news,
40:51I found an office.
40:53Two blocks west of Maine,
40:54walking distance from home.
40:56That's great, Lucy.
40:57Thanks.
40:58Dad was surprised
40:59when I told him I was leaving,
41:00but at least he still
41:01has you and Daniel.
41:03Ah, right.
41:05About that.
41:07I'm almost finished
41:08the renos
41:08on my new office space
41:10for the firm I'm starting.
41:12Wait, you're starting
41:15your own firm?
41:15Since when?
41:16Since I realized
41:17working with Marcus
41:18was akin to making
41:19a pact with Satan.
41:21I can't believe
41:21you're just telling me
41:22this now.
41:23It makes you feel any better.
41:24You're the first person
41:25I'm telling.
41:26You haven't told Dad?
41:27I will.
41:30You're afraid to tell him.
41:31No, I'm not.
41:33Just need to get
41:34my ducks lined up first.
41:35Yes.
41:37God.
41:42Did you punish me?
