00:00Previously on Family Law.

00:01No, this looks good. I want you.

00:03I mean, well, when 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 Benjamin Button

00:17as 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.

00:23If I resign, I don't get a severance package.

00:26And I expect a great severance 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.

00:51Plus, there's that giant disco 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.

01:07You mean Joanne will sort them and you'll say yes?

01:11Please don't share this news with your siblings.

01:13I'd like them to hear it from me.

01:15Yeah, because I'm just bursting to tell them.

01:17Well, our sarcastic daughter raises a good point.

01:23How long do you want our list to be?

01:25Just family?

01:27Other than the children, I 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 to mend things.

01:38There is nothing to mend.

01:46Wow.

01:47Just one more month.

01:48So, that's it.

01:52Your last day.

01:53Do you have to retire?

01:54You're still in your prime.

01:56I'll visit.

01:57It won't be the same.

01:58Who will send reminders when it's someone's birthday?

02:00Who will fill 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 seems perfectly capable.

02:11A visit tomorrow to get a lay of the land.

02:13But I hope that won't be awkward for you.

02:16Why would that be awkward?

02:19Oh, right.

02:20You two had six.

02:21Morning, Mr. Spenston.

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 for remarrying an ex is remarrying his ex.

02:39How are you taking it?

02:40Well, they're more annoying when 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 and my stepbrother.

02:56Dad, 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 prime 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 that I can do this on my own.

03:29When I quit my first job to start my own firm, it was daunting.

03:34It was also the best decision of my life.

03:43Thanks for waiting, Mr. Cook.

03:49Please.

03:50Kenneth is fine.

03:54Like the courtyard.

03:56Bees are pollinating.

03:57Aethys mellifera.

03:58It's the most common species.

04:02I didn't know that.

04:04How can I help you, Kenneth?

04:07Um...

04:08My late father set up a trust fund for me.

04:14Every few years, the bank's trustee gives me a drawdown as long as I meet the stipulations.

04:19Like what?

04:19Uh, I got the first $30,000 when I turned 21, but only if I graduated from college.

04:25Uh, I got the next drawdown when I turned 25, but only if I worked at my father's office.

04:31He made that a stipulation.

04:33He was pretty controlling.

04:36I can relate.

04:38I was supposed to get the next drawdown when I turned 35 last month.

04:43$100,000.

04:44But they'll only give me the money as long as I'm in a stable, monogamous relationship.

04:49And you're not in a relationship?

04:51No, I am.

04:53Um...

04:55Berta with me, would you like to meet her?

05:03This is Vanessa.

05:05Hello.

05:05Nice 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, cause 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.

05:35You 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, did you know bees need two million flowers to make one pound of honey?

06:00She likes bees.

06:02You have that in common.

06:05You 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 as 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 to 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, but 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, but it's still companionship.

07:05Come on, it's weird.

07:06Says the man who carries his dog around like a baby and talks to him in that ridiculous voice.

07:11Ignore him, Craigie-Wiggy.

07:15Much as I'd love to represent Kenneth, I've got a lot on my plate right now, so 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.

07:37Jessica, 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 using their photos and voice recordings.

08:00One day, Emil handed me a pair of VR goggles and asked me to look through them.

08:05And there was Libby, a virtual entity that looks and talks just like our daughter.

08:14I can't bear to look at it, but 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, you can decide what happens to it.

08:44But before we go that route, I 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.

09:11Nice 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, so I think I'll stay and order a cheeseburger.

09:35Put on Notting Hill and it sounds like the perfect night.

09:37It's more of a date movie and, alas, I am woefully single.

09:52You were reaching for the door handle, weren't you?

09:54Yep.

09:55This case is unwinnable.

10:07How can I argue he's in a relationship when Vanessa isn't real?

10:11Neither was Bruce Wayne.

10:12Your 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, but 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.

10:25I mean, why do you think I'm in the gaming world?

10:27Some of us are more comfortable with fictional characters.

10:30You seem pretty comfortable approaching 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.

10:41That 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.

10:50Uh-huh.

10:50It's a miracle.

10:55Both Abigail and Sophia are out of the house.

10:58Why don't I slip out of this suit and not into those pajamas that Abigail bought me?

11:06Actually, you may want to hold off on that.

11:09Oh, could you answer that?

11:11Harrison.

11:22Pull him.

11:24Why did you do this?

11:31Because he's your brother, and whatever happened between the two of you, it's time to clear

11:35the 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?

11:47Living 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.

12:01For what it's worth, until recently, my eldest wanted nothing to do with me.

12:07Now, we're working together, and it's quite pleasant, mostly.

12:11Hmm.

12:11How long has it been since we last spoke?

12:15Father's funeral.

12:18Huh?

12:19That reminds me.

12:22I was going through the attic the other day.

12:26Kind of these.

12:28Brings back memories, doesn't it?

12:30Certainly does.

12:32Dad used to make us go around whenever we got into an argument.

12:37What was it he always said?

12:38If it matters so much to you two, fight for it.

12:42And sometimes in life, you got to kick it on the chin.

12:49I'm glad you ain't called.

12:51It's been far too long.

13:00So you kissed your boss without getting her consent?

13:05I don't know how I'm going to face her tomorrow.

13:07Yeah, you should quit the show.

13:09Really?

13:10No.

13:11It might be weird for a while, but keep it time.

13:14It'll blow over.

13:16I gotta say, there's something hilarious about a therapist misreading social cues.

13:20There was a vibe, or 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 not to sexually harass her.

13:31We are looking particularly dashing.

13:39Winston's about to woo a certain office manager.

13:42I gave him my number at the retreat, and he's only texted me twice.

13:45It's like communicating with a straight guy, which 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 to start the tour.

13:58Oh, first stop, the kitchen.

14:00Can I fix you a tea or coffee?

14:01Tea sounds lovely.

14:07Hey.

14:09Sup?

14:15Yep.

14:17Interesting.

14:18Shut up.

14:20The trust stipulates my client needs to be in a long-term relationship.

14:24He has been in one for three years.

14:25With a doll.

14:29The correct term is synthetic partner.

14:31Whatever you call it, it doesn't qualify.

14:34The late Mr. Cook's intention behind the trust is clear.

14:37Every stipulation was a nudge for Kenneth to foster relationships.

14:41The trustee will not authorize the drawdown until Kenneth can prove that he is in a stable,

14:45monogamous relationship with a human.

14:49Uh, may I be excused?

14:53You may.

14:55Great, I think you just made my client cry.

15:02Look, I'm not judging.

15:04I get why he'd choose a doll.

15:06Body stays tight, no PMS.

15:08Program just say whatever you want.

15:09You think Vanessa has a sister?

15:12Why are we friends?

15:13Uh, this is my scheduling system.

15:18Yellow for birthdays, green for holidays.

15:21Would you look at that handwriting?

15:23Who says cursive's dead?

15:26We've covered HR, inventory, workstations, security.

15:31I could show you where we keep the sanitation wipes for the door handles.

15:35You know, I won't take up more of your time.

15:37But this was a lot of fun.

15:38Thanks, Jerry.

15:39You're most welcome.

15:40So, did he ask you out?

15:47Does this look like the face of someone who just got asked out?

15:54It's Troy.

15:55He wants to go out for dinner.

15:56Hi, I'm Libby.

16:04Can we go to the quack today?

16:06I want to see the duck lanes.

16:12What's the quack?

16:14It's Libby's nickname for her favorite park.

16:16It's a duck pond.

16:17How did the AI know that?

16:20I sent quantum avatar photo and video files of our daughter to create the most accurate replica.

16:27So, those digital assets belonged to both parties.

16:33My client wants ownership of the replica as well as in order prohibiting anyone from making another avatar.

16:39I won't let you destroy it.

16:41My client's not forcing anyone to interact with it.

16:44What's the harm if this is his private way of grieving?

16:46Jessica should have had a say as to whether the replica was created in the first place.

16:52Please.

16:54Just let me keep this part of Libby.

16:56That thing isn't Libby.

16:58Why would you do this?

16:59I got it so that we would have something to remember her by.

17:02No.

17:03You did it to hurt me.

17:05Hurt you?

17:06Why would I do that?

17:08To remind me that it was my fault.

17:11That I'm the one that took my eyes off her.

17:13That I'm the one that left the pool gate open.

17:15Jessica, I have never blamed you for what happened.

17:19Every time I see that thing, it's like a knife to my...

17:23Hey.

17:38I need you to research quantum avatar.

17:41Yeah, I've heard of them.

17:41They do artificial intelligence.

17:42This firm's not about to replace everyone with AI.

17:46Right?

17:48Start with quantum avatar's policies on IP.

17:50If I'm satisfied with what you found, your job is secure.

17:54For now.

17:55Your case sounds emotionally draining.

18:06Here's a thought.

18:06We are not swapping cases.

18:08But they're basically the same.

18:09People using AI to fill a void.

18:11For more, I've heard they're not at all the same.

18:13This replica is modeled after a real little girl whose parents are grieving.

18:16Well, your client's doll is AI with boobs.

18:20Part of me gets why Emile had the avatar made, but I think he's having trouble letting go.

18:26Grief isn't the same for everyone.

18:27When my mom died, I used to look for relics of her everywhere.

18:30I'd hide in her closet because it still smelled like her.

18:32I used to listen to your mother's greeting on our answering machine.

18:35When you and mom messed up, it always made me laugh.

18:39Hi, hi.

18:40What brings you two here?

18:41Uh, William wanted to see the firm.

18:43And my nieces and nephew.

18:45Remember your Uncle Bill?

18:47Sure, I remember.

18:48You bought me that toy drum set.

18:52You got me the stuffed animal.

18:54The one that repeated everything you said in the chipmunk boys?

18:56Yep.

18:57Squeaky Selma.

18:58That toy was designed to drive me nuts.

19:00Why do you think I bought it?

19:01And you have no idea who I am.

19:05Sorry.

19:05Don't be.

19:06You were in diapers the last time I saw you.

19:08Do you still live in, um, Montreal?

19:10No.

19:10I've been in Victoria for years.

19:13Nice setup, Harrison.

19:14Beats the shoebox I started out in.

19:16Ah, higher up too.

19:17Glad to see you got over your fear of heights.

19:19You were afraid of heights?

19:20Terrified.

19:22One time, a dog chased him up a tree.

19:24Harrison was too afraid to climb down.

19:26A firefighter had to retrieve him like a scared kitten.

19:28The height wasn't the concern.

19:30It was the rabid dog.

19:31Oh, you mean the neighbor's toy poodle?

19:33Before I forget, you all are invited to my house for dinner tomorrow night.

19:38Sounds like fun.

19:39Danny, you should bring Jude.

19:41I'd like to meet the mother of my future grandchild.

19:44I'll see if she's free.

19:46Let me see your office, Harrison.

19:47Of course.

19:47I forgot Dad even had a brother.

19:54Why am I just meeting him now?

19:56Extra weird, considering he's been in Victoria all this time.

19:59Gotta fly.

20:00I have to see a man about a doll.

20:02Have fun with Barbie and Kenneth.

20:04Daniel, over here.

20:17You brought Vanessa.

20:19Why?

20:21What?

20:21I kept winking last night, so I took her to have her hardware checked.

20:26How do you feel, Vanessa?

20:27Never met her, Kenny.

20:32Could have left her in the car.

20:33So if someone could kidnap her?

20:35Mr. Kroll and I kept talking after you left.

20:39The trustee might authorize the drawdown if you declare you're at least open to dating a person.

20:45A real one.

20:46Oh, I'm not into polyamory.

20:48I'm very traditional.

20:50Nothing about this is traditional.

20:52Try to look at it from the other side.

20:55You have to admit this relationship is a little...

20:58You don't need to approve of our relationship.

21:01You just need to represent me.

21:05Excuse me, I'm gonna use the facilities.

21:07Please watch her.

21:08No, don't.

21:10Wait.

21:21It's not mine.

21:27So the whole coffee shop is staring and he's not even phased.

21:30Like how you're phased.

21:32People took pictures.

21:32Someone call me a perv.

21:33I have a client in ten.

21:35What do you need?

21:36I need to prove Kenneth's relationship with Vanessa meets the same requirements as if she were real.

21:41Can you talk to him, please?

21:43You want me to prove your client is in a stable, monogamous relationship with a doll?

21:48Consider it more fodder for your radio show.

21:53Counting the days till our kids get home from Europe?

21:56Oh, yeah.

21:57Oh, it'll be insufferable, though, don't you think?

21:59I bet good money one of them pulls a Madonna and returns home with a fake accent.

22:06My real estate agent has interesting taste.

22:09Can I tempt you with a bag of pickled-flavored popcorn?

22:12Uh, generous, but I'll pass.

22:17How about this?

22:18Token of my gratitude for not falling through these floors.

22:21There's a nice bottle of wine.

22:24You sure don't want it?

22:26I can't.

22:28I'm an alcoholic.

22:30Been sober almost two years.

22:32Oh, okay.

22:33Well, yeah, sure, I'll take it.

22:35Thanks.

22:42There's a family dinner tomorrow and you're invited, if you're interested.

22:46Sure.

22:47I'd like to see what other weird family traits are coming down the line.

22:51So, how's the doll case?

22:53It would be easier if my client wasn't dating a doll.

22:55Well, I put more blame on his dead dad.

22:57I mean, he's the one bribing his son into being in a relationship.

23:00Maybe he didn't want him to end up alone.

23:03Well, sounds like my parents.

23:05All they ever want to do is pressure me to find a husband.

23:07Meanwhile, they can't stand being in the same room together.

23:09And some people would rather be married than happy.

23:12Take your point?

23:13My mom left my dad and she never looked back.

23:17And then, there's us.

23:18We're single and happy and well-adjusted.

23:22At least I am.

23:26What do you think I should wear tonight?

23:34Well, you know what they say.

23:36Can't go wrong with a bolo tie.

23:38No one says that.

23:39My mom says that.

23:40Why are you two always huddled here gossiping?

23:43Does this look like a slumber party?

23:48Someone's in a mood.

23:50Is this about William?

23:51Because you said you'd give him a fair shot.

23:53I am.

23:54But he is determined to belittle me.

23:57Every story he shares is another jab.

23:59Maybe that's just his way of connecting.

24:02I don't know how I can tolerate another two nights of this.

24:06Have a little compassion.

24:08His wife left him.

24:09He's estranged from his son.

24:10You're his only family.

24:12Lucky me.

24:13When I was a kid, a bumblebee flew into our house.

24:20His wing was damaged, so I put him in a terrarium.

24:24I fed him sugar water every day until he got better.

24:28Then I let him go back to his hive.

24:31You seem passionate about bees.

24:35I like the way they communicate.

24:37When bees want something, they dance, release pheromones.

24:42Their social bonds come so easily.

24:46What's your experience like meeting people?

24:48I still get nervous around my coworkers.

24:51But Vanessa helps.

24:53Sometimes she and I come up with icebreakers.

24:56They work too.

24:57People invite me to sit with them at lunch.

24:59And there's this nature club at the community center.

25:01I never would have joined unless Vanessa hyped me up.

25:06I know she's just programmed to be supportive.

25:11But when Vanessa says that she believes in me,

25:17I believe in me.

25:21Just a little bit.

25:25At the very least,

25:27Kenneth perceives himself to be in a relationship.

25:29Would you say it's healthy?

25:31It's complicated.

25:33Kenneth's been hurt by people,

25:34so he's clinging to something that makes him feel safe.

25:37Yannick will argue she's just distracting him

25:39from meeting real people.

25:41Actually, Vanessa seems to be helping him meet new people.

25:44She gives him the confidence to come out of his shell.

25:46I can't say whether this qualifies as a stable monogamous relationship,

25:50but having Vanessa in his life encourages him to make friends.

25:54Just not a girlfriend.

25:56I looked into Quantum Avatar's license and release agreement.

26:00Check out this clause.

26:01We retain the right to reproduce and sell protected material to third parties.

26:09So I did some more digging and found a press release.

26:11Turns out Quantum Avatar partnered with another company.

26:15That's Minnie's.

26:16It's a food manufacturing company.

26:17How did our daughter end up in a commercial?

26:21So is my job secure?

26:22Guess what to make me.

26:25Try our new instant soup mix.

26:28Pour water and...

26:30Mmm!

26:31Minnie, mix it up!

26:39Mmm!

26:41Minnie, mix it up!

26:43How did our daughter end up in a commercial?

26:47Quantum Avatar owns the intellectual rights of all AI it generates.

26:53Meaning they can use the AI however they want,

26:55even sell it to third parties like Minnie's.

26:57So everything I've ever shared about Lippy belongs to them?

27:02They can just own our daughter's memory?

27:05We can fight this.

27:07We'll seek an injunction to pull Lippy's image from the Minnie's ad campaign.

27:10And there's an excellent chance they'll comply.

27:13They probably don't even know how the replica was generated.

27:15We'll demand Quantum Avatar relinquish all rights to the replica so they never use it again.

27:20What if they say no?

27:21We go public.

27:23Exploding the grief of parents is not a good look.

27:27Don't change yourself.

27:41Change your perspective.

27:42Be kind to yourself, Lawrence.

27:52Great job.

27:52Thanks.

27:53Uh, the other day, I thought you were trying to, you know, so I, you know.

28:01We don't need a play-by-play.

28:03I just don't want things to get awkward between us.

28:05You're making things awkward right now.

28:09We work together.

28:10Let's just keep things professional.

28:12Pretend it never happened.

28:14Okay.

28:15Okay.

28:15Oh, I'm sorry.

28:18I'll let you.

28:27So you two met at that bar where the broker bros go?

28:31I've been there once and 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?

28:37I just had a few drinks in me.

28:39I regret introducing you two.

28:41This must be the woman I'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 when I was 16.

28:54Dinner's ready.

28:55Get your butts out here.

28:57Thank you all for coming.

28:58My children, William, Jude, nice to welcome you into the fold.

29:06And to my beautiful bride-to-be for bringing us all together.

29:11Cheers.

29:12Cheers.

29:13Cheers.

29:15Okay, let's eat.

29:17I'd also like to make a toast.

29:20When Joanne reached out and told me about the wedding, I thought,

29:24you're joking.

29:24But no, you two really are putting yourselves through that again.

29:30So to Harry and Joanne in their second shot.

29:34What's the definition of insanity?

29:37Doing the same thing over and over and, uh...

29:41So, how'd you like the office tour?

29:54Yuck.

29:55It was fine.

29:57Until Jerry showed me her scheduling system.

29:59Yikes.

30:00What's wrong with her system?

30:01You mean that mom calendar?

30:04Ugh.

30:04Did you see that spreadsheet tool?

30:06It is a miracle Svensson and Svensson has 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, maybe if she spent less time handwriting appointments,

30:18she could update her skills and join us in the modern age.

30:20Jerry doesn't just use that mom calendar for appointments.

30:26She records birthdays and anniversaries.

30:29The day Cecil passed his paralegal exam.

30:32Okay.

30:33Jerry's the beating heart of our firm.

30:36You should feel honored to succeed her.

30:39You know what?

30:40I'm allergic to pasta.

30:41Bitch, you picked this place!

30:49It was my third year in boarding school.

30:52Harrison had just started.

30:53He was miserable.

30:54Cried in the dorms every night for his mommy.

30:56Oh, that's understandable.

30:58You were like 12?

30:59The other boys smelled weakness.

31:02So one day, I'm in the quad.

31:04See these other kids surround them.

31:06They start hurling dodgeballs at them.

31:08Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.

31:09Oh, didn't cry for mother after that, did you, Harrison?

31:14So you just stood there while your younger brother was being pelted by dodgeballs?

31:18It was a boys' school.

31:20You might want to rethink telling that old chestnut.

31:22You don't come out looking good.

31:24You should learn how to take a joke.

31:26You should learn how to tell one.

31:28Well, you've certainly inherited your mother's mouth.

31:30William.

31:33A word.

31:39You let her talk to you like that?

31:45That was uncalled for.

31:47Every time you open your mouth, it's to insult my loved ones or humiliate me.

31:52Oh, come on.

31:53I was just messing around.

31:54When did you become so thin-skinned?

31:55You've been doing this our whole lives.

31:57You want to bring out the gloves?

31:58I'll let you take the first swing.

32:00Fair warning, I won't go easy.

32:01You never did.

32:02Those gloves were never for resolving conflicts.

32:06Dad turned every argument we had into a blood sport.

32:10You're being dramatic.

32:11You were two years older than me.

32:14You were bigger and stronger, and Dad knew that.

32:19He wanted to see me get pummeled, and you gave him what he wanted.

32:23Every time.

32:24I can forgive you for what you did, I can forgive you for what you did.

32:26We were children.

32:28And he was a tyrant.

32:33I can even tolerate the way you continue to humiliate me, trying to make me feel like that

32:38little kid in the boxing gloves.

32:40But you will not go after my family.

32:51It's the expression that I feel like is very Daniel.

32:54Okay.

32:55I don't.

32:59William won't be staying for dessert.

33:01Now, what were we all talking about?

33:09Jude was showing us a character she designed.

33:12Look familiar.

33:13You got three guesses whose forehead that is, and the first two don't count.

33:17The likeness is uncanny.

33:20He doesn't look anything like me.

33:22Oh, you keep telling yourself that.

33:24I mean, we've all seen that face.

33:27I don't like that much.

33:28The late Mr. Cook wanted his son to pursue a meaningful, stable relationship.

33:37Now, not only is this not what he had in mind, it prevents his son from meeting the human

33:47partner his father wanted for him.

33:49Out of respect for the grantor's intentions, the trustee will not authorize this drawdown.

33:54Does opposing counsel have anything to hide?

34:00Your Honor, this trust stipulation should be void because it's founded on an immoral consideration.

34:06For a moment, let's forget about the doll.

34:08I'll try.

34:09So what if my client isn't dating anyone?

34:12Relationships take all forms.

34:14I'm currently in a platonic co-parenting arrangement.

34:16I wouldn't meet the stipulation, even though this relationship is the most stable I've ever had.

34:20Objection.

34:21How is counsel's love life, or lack of it, relevant?

34:24Overruled.

34:25I'm curious where this is going.

34:27My client is capable of cultivating human relationships.

34:30Objection.

34:31He brought a sex doll to court.

34:34For some people, socializing is hard.

34:36So they learn ways to push themselves outside their comfort zone.

34:39Vanessa gives Kenneth that push.

34:41She helps him build the confidence to meet people.

34:44Signed affidavits from Kenneth's colleagues.

34:47They all describe him the same way.

34:49Quiet, yes.

34:51But a team player with an endearing passion for bees.

34:55Some of his colleagues even describe Kenneth as a friend.

34:59Your Honor, my client is not unstable, unhappy, or lonely.

35:03He's just single.

35:05Why prioritize a romantic relationship when he already has a wealth of connections that enrich his life?

35:09Forcing him to be in a committed relationship violates public policy.

35:15Counsel rests.

35:21I agree, counsel.

35:24The clause places an unnecessary burden onto the beneficiary.

35:28I hereby order the trustee to pay the drawdown.

35:39Congratulations.

35:41Why'd you say I was single? I'm not.

35:44You won. How about a thank you, Daniel?

35:47Thank you, Daniel.

35:49You're welcome, Vanessa.

35:53I miss myself.

35:54Winston, order some pastries from Boku and make sure you get blondies for Cecile.

36:00Thank you, sir.

36:02I take it dinner went well.

36:03Very.

36:08And how did your dinner go?

36:11Not great.

36:12I don't know what happened.

36:16We had a disagreement.

36:18It's whatever.

36:19Oh.

36:20Will it be weird working with Troy?

36:21I won't have to.

36:23By the time he gets here, I will have started grad school.

36:26Winston's gap year is almost up.

36:29Wait, you're leaving too?

36:31When?

36:32Gap year, Cecile.

36:34Oh.

36:35Now I hear it.

36:37Two friends gone.

36:38This hurts more than when they canceled Whip It.

36:40True friends are never apart.

36:43Perhaps in distance, but not in heart.

36:45Without you, Jerry, who will give proverbs no one asks for?

36:48And without you, Winston, who will answer the phones?

36:57He's got a point.

36:59Really does feel like the end of something, doesn't it?

37:04Hey, Jerry.

37:06Even though we're both leaving, we can still hang out, right?

37:09Grab brunch?

37:10Let's pick a date, shall we?

37:12Minis was appalled to discover the origins of Libby's image.

37:23And Quantum Avatar has agreed to relinquish all rights to the replica.

37:28After discussing matters, my client agrees to delete the AI.

37:33We can visit her at Glen Forrest.

37:38Visiting Libby's grave reminds me of her death.

37:41I just...

37:42I wanted to remember her life.

37:45If I could offer a suggestion,

37:48what about a swing set

37:49in Libby's favorite park

37:51in her name?

37:53That's a beautiful idea.

37:56A meal?

37:56I like when our clients land on the same page.

38:12Do you think it's possible

38:13that they'll find their way back 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.

38:20I was digging through some boxes last night.

38:28Look what I found.

38:29Is that...

38:30I'll leave it here.

38:32You can listen to it when 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 of Monique, Harry,

38:49and Lucy Svensson.

38:50Hello.

38:51Thank you for calling.

38:53We're away from the phone right now,

38:55so please leave a message after 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 useless buttons?

39:05I'll press one.

39:07What if we just hang up?

39:09Oh, are we still recording?

39:12All right.

39:13I'm heading out.

39:14Your office should be moving ready

39:16in the next two weeks.

39:17Thanks.

39:18I love the kitchen cabinets.

39:19Yeah.

39:21Quality storage.

39:25Hey, when this contract's over,

39:28would you, um,

39:31would you be interested in going out sometime?

39:33You mean, like, on a date?

39:36Yeah.

39:41I'd love to, but I'm going to have to decline.

39:46Oh.

39:48Oh, sorry.

39:49I, I guess I misread things.

39:51Oh, no, no.

39:53You didn't.

39:55At the risk of getting too much information,

39:58I have been coupled up most of my adult life.

40:02I met my ex-husband in university.

40:06My rebound was supposed to be a blip,

40:07and then wasn't.

40:09And my last relationship didn't end well.

40:14I think I need to be single for a while longer

40:17before I inflict myself on anyone else.

40:20Well, that really was too much information.

40:27But I get it.

40:31So, how are things with Robin?

40:42Still awkward.

40:43Well, if it's any comfort,

40:45it'll only be awkward for as long as you continue 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 when I told him I was leaving,

41:00but at least he still has you and Daniel.

41:03Ah, right.

41:05About that.

41:07I'm almost finished the reno's

41:08on my new office space

41:10for the firm I'm starting.

41:13Wait.

41:14You're starting your own firm?

41:15Since when?

41:16Since I realized working with Marcus

41:18was akin to making a pact with Satan.

41:21I can't believe you're just telling me this now.

41:23It makes me feel any better.

41:24You're the first person I'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 my ducks lined up first.

41:35God.
