00:00Previously on Family Law.
00:02Hey, when this contract's over, would you be interested in going out sometime?
00:05I think I need to be single for a while longer before I inflict myself on anyone else.
00:10The child broke his arm a full 90 minutes before his mother picked him up.
00:14Disturbingly, opposing counsel knew this and failed to disclose it.
00:17How the hell did this come to Portia's attention?
00:19Are you saying it already came to yours?
00:20Just so you know, it wasn't Daniel.
00:23It's not too late to pull the plug on this merger. I'm gonna tell Dad.
00:26Speak of the snake.
00:27As soon as he leaves, we'll go in.
00:29There's a liability, Harry. Abigail has to go.
00:36I know what I'm about to say will come as a surprise.
00:40Dad, please just hear me out.
00:43Hey. Marcus is gone. Let's go.
00:48You can do this. I'll be right there with you.
00:59Dad, we need to talk about Marcus.
01:01No need. The merger is off.
01:04Why?
01:05He had conditions I refused to meet.
01:07What conditions?
01:08Look, I think we're being rude.
01:10This is Jerry's special moment.
01:12Let's get back to her party.
01:14Did you just get home?
01:28The party went on longer than expected.
01:31Where's Joanne?
01:32Getting something or other waxed for the wedding.
01:35Sounds about right.
01:37You gonna tell me why you called off the merger?
01:40It's not important.
01:41You must be pleased.
01:42I know you had misgivings.
01:44More like grave concerns.
01:46Well, it's over.
01:47Things can go back to the way they were.
01:49Actually, there's something I have to tell you.
02:00I've decided to start my own practice.
02:04Since when?
02:05Since I brought you my misgivings six weeks ago
02:08and you ignored them.
02:10I leased office space at the same time.
02:12You leased office space six weeks ago
02:14and you're just telling me now?
02:16I'm giving you my required two weeks notice.
02:18You're becoming a halfway decent family lawyer.
02:21Why would you want to go back to personal injury?
02:24I'm not.
02:29You're setting up a competing practice.
02:32I won't poach any clients.
02:33After I mentored you all this time.
02:35You did mentor me, Harry,
02:36but you also put a glass ceiling over my head.
02:39You have no idea.
02:41No idea what I've done for you.
02:43You have done a lot for me over the past two years.
02:45So thank you for being there for 5% of my life.
02:48Oh, here we go again with your self-pitying narrative.
02:52I'm being self-pitying?
02:54Hi, hi.
02:55No more whiskers.
02:56No more whiskers.
02:57No more whiskers.
03:00I'm being told.
03:01A nice little,
03:02don't you?
03:03I'm not.
03:08Yeah.
03:09I am a criminal.
03:10I am a criminal.
03:11I am a criminal.
03:12I am a criminal.
03:13I am a criminal.
03:15I am a criminal.
03:16So you can get me.
03:17I am a criminal.
03:18So I know if I am a criminal.
03:19So I am an criminal.
03:20You got to equip, oh, oh, the charges won't stick, cause I ain't no sucker, ain't your lollipop, but you can't kiss my sweet, uh-huh.
03:31Never gonna stop, never gonna stop, never gonna stop, never gonna stop, you can't prove it, oh, oh.
03:39Why didn't you tell me?
03:41Because I knew you'd tell Harry.
03:42Okay, why didn't you tell him?
03:44Because I knew he'd poke holes in it.
03:46I wanted to wait until everything was in place.
03:50Have you really been this unhappy?
03:52I've just come to realize the culture of that place is never gonna change.
03:55I'm tired of constantly feeling like someone's charity case.
03:59Good morning, love.
04:01Coffee?
04:02Could you put it in a to-go mug, please?
04:04Don't bother, I was just leaving.
04:07Reach in the car in ten, so...
04:09Okay.
04:11Morning, Grandpa, morning, Jojo.
04:12Good morning, granddaughter.
04:13In four more days, you two will once again be Mr. and Mrs.
04:17We will indeed.
04:18What was your first wedding like?
04:19Ugh, we got married on the beach in thrift store clothes.
04:22Our honeymoon was a night at Harrison Hot Springs.
04:25Yeah, we smuggled in our food because it was all we could afford.
04:28So romantic.
04:30Where will you go this time?
04:32It's our second kick at the can, Sophia.
04:34We don't need a honeymoon.
04:38Love you.
04:38I'll start to research options today.
04:45I'll do the same over lunch.
04:51Thanks so much.
04:52I'm just saying, the research shows a baby's Apgar tests are better if the mother has a drug-free birth.
04:57I am getting all the drugs.
04:58Okay, but if you just read...
05:00No, you have no say in this.
05:01I'm the one that's me pushing a possum out of my...
05:03Okay, okay.
05:04Point taken.
05:06Oh.
05:09Oh, wow.
05:10I forgot all about this.
05:11What is it?
05:12A five-year plan.
05:13I wrote it...
05:14Let me guess.
05:15Five years ago and you scheduled a reminder.
05:17Of course I did.
05:18That's the whole point.
05:19What does it say?
05:21Personal life.
05:22Married with two kids.
05:24Partial points.
05:25Do another Iron Man?
05:26Check.
05:27Stay at the same body mass index?
05:29Check.
05:30Please don't take this the wrong way when I say,
05:31I hope our child inherits very few of your crates.
05:34Professional life.
05:34Make 40 under 40.
05:35Check.
05:36Make partner.
05:37Another check.
05:38Steer the firm towards collaborative law.
05:41Keep families out of court.
05:42Reduce the stresses they face financially and emotionally.
05:46I take it that stuff didn't happen.
05:49My dad's all about litigation and billable hours.
05:52It's too bad.
05:53I kind of like the sounds of the guy in that last bit.
05:55I might have had a baby with him on purpose.
06:01I have an announcement to make.
06:04We've listened to your concerns.
06:07The merger is off.
06:08We decided it wasn't the direction we wanted the firm to go in.
06:11So consider us back to business as usual.
06:14And one more item.
06:15Our associate Abigail Bianchi will be leaving in two weeks' time.
06:22We thank her for her service.
06:26Obviously.
06:26I want your sister taking off all cases effective immediately.
06:29She has to be assigned menial tasks only.
06:32First Jerry, then Winston.
06:34Now Miss Bianchi.
06:35This is the year of goodbyes.
06:38At least you'll still be here, Dr. Svensson.
06:41Actually, Cecil, I'm leaving at the end of the month.
06:45Who's even working here anymore?
06:52Why is Abigail leaving?
06:54She says I don't take her seriously.
06:55You don't take her seriously.
06:56That is nonsense.
06:57You still refuse to add her photo to the website.
07:00I called off the merger for her.
07:04Marcus wanted her out.
07:05I refused.
07:07Have you told her that?
07:08What's the point?
07:09She's made up her mind.
07:11I'm hoping this means we can rip up that severance agreement.
07:14I'll stay on until we find and train my replacement.
07:24You sure you want to do this?
07:25I am.
07:26Come on, you're dying to do your happy dance.
07:30I know we've had our differences.
07:31Daniel, you've hated having me here.
07:33Yeah, but I grew to love hating it.
07:35So it's back to me and dad.
07:45He'll have to leave eventually.
07:47All you got to do is outlast him.
07:49You already knew your sister was leaving, didn't you?
07:57I did.
07:57It's not the worst thing, dad.
07:59It just means all your children are flourishing and independent.
08:02And abandoning me in droves.
08:03You can always take me out to lunches and dinners as long as you're paying.
08:13You know, dad, I'm thinking this may all be for the best.
08:16Just the two of us steering a leaner, meaner ship.
08:19I wanted the merger to go through so that when I leave, this doesn't all fall apart.
08:25It won't.
08:27I'll still be here.
08:30Sir, there's a Fletcher Dixon here to see you.
08:33Says he used to be your shipwright.
08:34Fletcher Dixon?
08:37Mr. Svensson.
08:38No, no, it's Harry.
08:40House Coastal Dancer.
08:41Oh, sold her a few years back.
08:43Still breaks my heart.
08:44Yeah, she was a beauty.
08:45No small thanks to you.
08:47The teak flooring you put in, the cabinetry.
08:50So tell me, what have you been up to?
08:53I've been in Edgefield the past couple years.
08:56Edgefield, isn't that...
08:57The penitentiary.
08:59I was convicted of robbery and assault.
09:04I was injured on the job and became addicted to painkillers.
09:15When the doctor wouldn't fill my prescription anymore, I tried to rob a pharmacy.
09:20I punched the security guard who tackled me.
09:22Not that I remember any of it.
09:24I regret every moment and got myself clean.
09:28How long were you in prison?
09:29I served two years before your sentence.
09:31I was released early on good behavior.
09:32And why have you come to see me?
09:34My girlfriend, Marlena, broke up with me right before I was sentenced.
09:40Cut me out of her life cold turkey.
09:42Not that I blame her.
09:44After I got out, a friend told me that she died in a car crash a year ago.
09:51So sorry to hear that.
09:52And I also found out that she had a baby four months into my sentence.
09:57I went to Marlena's sister's house to get answers and she opened the door and she was holding this little kid that was the spitting image of me.
10:09She swore he wasn't mine and told me to leave.
10:13Next thing I know, I get a letter from her lawyer telling me to back off.
10:16The fact that she lawyered up strongly suggests the boy is yours.
10:21First order of business.
10:24We get a paternity test to confirm it.
10:28Does this mean you'll help me?
10:30It does.
10:32Men deserve to know if they fathered a child.
10:34End of story.
10:36Glad you told me I was going to be a father.
10:38The thought of having a kid out there and not being a part of its life.
10:41Sounds like Harry's idea of bliss.
10:43Abigail, get a court order for the paternity test and set a court date while you're at it.
10:50Wait, isn't that supposed to be my job?
10:52Yes, and I hereby delegate it to you.
10:55When Maggie took off with Harmony, it felt like my heart was in a vice.
10:58Same for me when I couldn't see my granddaughter.
11:01I feel for this young man.
11:02Okay, but let's not forget the guy's an addict.
11:04Recovered addict.
11:05There's our two-fifths of the people at this table, so careful what comes out of your mouth next.
11:09Why aren't you eating?
11:11Don't tell me you're doing that intermittent fasting BS.
11:13It's not BS, and if you must know, I'm having lunch with my mother.
11:17You're going to ask her to be your plus one at the wedding?
11:23You look so cute in this one.
11:25Like a little sea captain.
11:28And this.
11:31A tuxedo onesie.
11:33Can't believe you kept all this.
11:34Only the ones in mint condition.
11:36She would love them all, thank you.
11:38How is she doing?
11:39She's great.
11:41Yeah, nothing seems to faz her.
11:43How are you doing?
11:44I have a constant low-grade terror at the prospect of being a parent.
11:47Look at it this way.
11:48You're going to be a much better father than Harry.
11:51It's a low bar.
11:53Thanks.
11:54And how are things at work?
11:56Honestly, not great.
11:57I had big goals when I started out, and I've achieved almost none of them working with Dad.
12:04I'm surprised that surprises you.
12:06I feel like I've lost my way.
12:10You've handed me the perfect segue.
12:13I have something I'd like to run by you.
12:18Partnership, match and pay, and right out of the gate, I'll be working on a meaningful class action lawsuit as their second chair.
12:23It sounds amazing.
12:25Yeah, I know.
12:27But?
12:28It's a huge decision.
12:30Daniel, why would you stay where you are if you're miserable?
12:33Miserable is a strong word.
12:34Okay, how about filled with feelings of inferiority, frustration, paranoia?
12:41Warmer.
12:42I like your mom.
12:44I like your dad, too, but it sounds like Xena's more aligned with your goals.
12:47And, bonus, she'll probably get the importance of paternity leave better than Harry.
12:53Ugh.
12:56You try having a six-pound alien sitting on your colon.
13:00Ugh.
13:03Ugh.
13:03Your Honor, Fletcher Dixon has passed every one of his drug tests.
13:10His parole officer has attested to his character, and his old employer has hired him back.
13:15They have given him glowing reports.
13:17Furthermore, we're not asking for primary custody, because Fletcher understands the child is bonded to his aunt.
13:24My client merely wants shared parenting time.
13:27This in spite of the fact that what Violet did, keeping Fletcher in the dark that he even had a son, was punitive.
13:32And unethical.
13:34I have nothing further.
13:37Your Honor.
13:38I'd like to call Violet Abrams to the stand.
13:46Miss Abrams, it does seem rather punitive to leave Fletcher in the dark.
13:50Why did you do that?
13:52Because he made my sister's life a living hell.
13:54Objection.
13:54Hearsay.
13:55Given that the witness's sister is deceased, I am prepared to permit her some leeway.
14:00Please continue, Mr. Sterling.
14:02Miss Abrams, could you be more specific?
14:04Where do I begin?
14:08Fletcher pawned my sister's belongings, including our mother's antique wedding ring.
14:13He sold her car, which she needed for work.
14:15One day she came home and the couch was gone.
14:19He'd sold it for pills.
14:22He vanished for days on end, making her sick with worry.
14:27And he lied through his teeth about everything.
14:29I can't imagine putting a child into that environment.
14:32Objection, Your Honor.
14:33Miss Abrams' testimony is irrelevant in the here and now.
14:37My client has been clean for over a year.
14:39Are you sure about that?
14:42We hired a private investigator.
14:45Follow Fletcher.
14:47These photos were taken just a few days ago.
14:50Now the man Fletcher is approaching is his drug dealer.
14:54Gus Norris.
14:55And here, he hands said drug dealer a wad of cash.
15:02Your Honor, Violet Abrams has provided a stable, consistent, and loving home for this child for over a year.
15:08We urge you to dismiss Mr. Dixon's application for parenting for the safety of this little boy.
15:15I owe Gus money from before, and I knew he wouldn't leave me alone until I settled my debt.
15:27I'm not using it anymore, I swear.
15:29Those stories Violet told on the stand, are they all true?
15:33Yes, but I'm not that guy anymore.
15:35I'm trying to rebuild my life.
15:37Am I terrified of screwing up again?
15:38Of course.
15:39But I don't know what more I can do to prove that I deserve to be a father to my son.
15:58Winston, can I see you in the boardroom?
16:01But the phones.
16:02Can go to voicemail?
16:03Winston, I have loved my time here, but you have your whole life ahead of you.
16:11You could run a tech company.
16:12You could be prime minister.
16:14You're not the first person to tell me that.
16:15I just don't think you should limit yourself.
16:18How am I limiting myself?
16:20You applied for my job.
16:25Jerry, do you honestly think I'd submit my resume in Comic Sans?
16:33Submitted my resume for office manager?
16:36Yeah.
16:37Now, I know it's intimidating, Jerry's a legend, but I think you've got what it takes.
16:41It's flattering, but I've already been accepted into my program.
16:44Yeah, where you have to pay them, here they have to pay you.
16:52Cecil, I'm going back to school in September.
16:56So what do I want to do?
16:57I thought it's what your mom wants you to do.
16:59That too.
17:00I'm just going to miss you so much.
17:02We're still roomies.
17:04We'll see each other every day.
17:15This just came in by a courier.
17:16It's from the Law Society.
17:18Oh, you open it.
17:19Courier envelope from the Law Society has never brought me good news.
17:22Your application to change your surname from Bianchi to Svensson is pending.
17:30And you need to appear before a commissioner of oaths to spread an affidavit.
17:34Kind of ironic, isn't it?
17:38I didn't want to be a Bianchi anymore, but not exactly dying to be a Svensson right now, either.
17:44On the one hand, my mom has made me this incredible offer.
17:53But on the other, I spent my entire career at the firm.
17:56What do you think I should do?
17:58Remember when you did Model UN?
18:00Of course.
18:01I represented Germany.
18:03I had so much fun once I realized I didn't have to wear my lederhosen.
18:06You won first place for your position paper on world hunger.
18:10It was one of Dad's nights.
18:12Yeah, he took us off for ice cream sundaes.
18:15I ate so much I puked over Dad's shoes.
18:18And after you puked, you announced that you were going to make a difference in the world.
18:24I believed you.
18:29You'll be pleased to know that with our granddaughter's help, I'm putting together a plan for our honeymoon.
18:36You're working.
18:38Hmm?
18:39Oh, yes.
18:40He must really like this Fletcher kid.
18:42You never bring work home.
18:44I'll admit I have a soft spot.
18:45Phil is making the once an addict, always an addict argument, even though Fletcher has been clean for over a year.
18:51He's gainfully employed, passes regular drug tests.
18:55He's doing everything he can for a successful recovery.
18:58Yet people still want to punish him.
19:01I bristle at the injustice.
19:03I really do.
19:04Do you hear yourself?
19:06Your daughter has done every single thing your client has done.
19:11Yet you have more faith in the guy who refinished your boat than you do in her.
19:15That is not true.
19:16I was the only one who would hire my daughter after she hit rock bottom.
19:20And never let her forget it.
19:21Even though she's more than proven herself.
19:24Even though she has eight years on Daniel, you've never put her name on the door.
19:29You never fully trusted her.
19:34And you wonder why she's leaving.
19:37My name is Abby, and I'm an alcoholic.
19:44Hi, Abby.
19:45Welcome.
19:46This is a special night for me.
19:47This is a special night for me.
19:49I'm two years sober today.
19:57When I first started coming here, I couldn't even say the word alcoholic.
20:01Yeah, you said schmalkaholic.
20:03Thanks, Pam.
20:04All I saw, no offense, was a room full of losers.
20:10And I told myself, I'm not one of them.
20:12I had one foot firmly in denial for a long time.
20:17But y'all stood by me when I couldn't see my kids, through my awful divorce, when I wanted
20:33to drink all the time, coming to these meetings got me through.
20:39Everyone here, we are the opposite of losers.
20:45This room is full of the strongest, bravest people I know.
20:50Because staying sober is hard.
20:57This woman, this woman has stood by me like no one else.
21:04Would you like to come up here and claim your two-year chip?
21:10You'll still be my sponsor when you get home from your world travels.
21:25It's three weeks in Holland and Belgium, Abby.
21:27But yes, I'll still be your sponsor.
21:30All right.
21:31Let's go.
21:32All right.
21:33All right.
21:34All right.
21:35All right.
21:36All right.
21:37All right.
21:38All right.
21:39Listen, no agenda here.
21:40All right.
21:41All right.
21:42You're incredible.
21:43All right.
21:44No, I'm not.
21:45You are.
21:46All right.
21:47And you dodged a bullet with this guy.
21:49All right.
21:50All right.
21:51I keep failing.
21:52All right.
21:53Hey, not true.
21:54You're succeeding by just being here.
21:57Mm-hmm.
22:02Congratulations, Miss Bianchi.
22:04Thank you, Mr. Cohen.
22:07Abby, come on.
22:09We can't cut your cake without you.
22:11Come on.
22:12Happy to meet you.
22:32The only good thing about fighting with you is the makeup sex.
22:37And the only reason we made up is because you realized I was right and you were wrong.
22:43Of course, my love.
22:50Now, let me show you what Sophia and I have cooked up for our honeymoon.
22:57Why am I looking at elephants?
22:58Because we're going to Africa.
23:00Africa.
23:00First, a ten-day safari to Kenya.
23:02Then we travel to Rwanda to visit the silverback gorillas.
23:05And then, last but not least, a winery tour in South Africa.
23:09And how long would this trip take?
23:10A month.
23:11Joanne, I can't possibly go away for that long.
23:14You can if you do what we talked about last night.
23:18This trip is on my bucket list, Harry.
23:21And I would really like it if you were in the same bucket.
23:32Abigail, may I have a word?
23:34What do you want me to do now?
23:37Pick up your tux for the wedding tomorrow?
23:39How would you feel about being an equity partner?
23:50Where did this come from?
23:51Does it matter?
23:52I appreciate the offer.
23:55I really do.
23:58But I want more autonomy.
24:01You'd have autonomy.
24:02You'd be a named partner.
24:04Daniel's a named partner, and he has the autonomy of a toddler.
24:07How would this be any different?
24:10Your mother wants to go on a month-long honeymoon.
24:13Of course she does.
24:14I couldn't be away for that long unless you were in charge.
24:16Thank you for the offer, but I'm going to have to think about it.
24:27Does Daniel know that you...
24:29He does.
24:29And he's okay with it.
24:30I'm prepared to accept your offer.
24:38I'm delighted to hear that.
24:40I do have a few terms.
24:41As you should.
24:42I would like to bring Craig to work.
24:44Stephanie is allergic.
24:47Tell you what.
24:47I'll get her to research some good doggy daycares, okay?
24:51Okay.
24:52I also wanted to discuss paternity leave.
24:55Jude and I are hoping to split the time equally.
24:57Danny, I'm all for pat leave.
24:59You know I am.
25:01But this class-action suit can't be put on hold while you stay home with your child.
25:06Is there anything else?
25:09Am I your legacy plan?
25:11Jeez, kiddo.
25:13You don't pull any punches, do you?
25:15I'm a lot younger than your father.
25:18I'm not going anywhere for a long time.
25:23Hmm.
25:25Ooh, I have a good one for you.
25:27What's the difference between a lawyer and a gigolo?
25:30A gigolo only screws one person at a time.
25:33What can I do for you today?
25:35I've applied to have my surname changed back to Svensson.
25:38Oh, the place is swarming with Svensson's today.
25:40Your dad's over in courtroom 202.
25:43Will you be my commissioner of both?
25:44Oh, happy to do it.
25:46Thanks, Roz.
25:47Come back in an hour.
25:48Why?
25:49It's my lunch break.
25:49Meeting Cecil for a bibimbap.
25:51This will only take a few minutes.
25:52If I bend the rules for you, I have to bend the rules for everyone.
25:55But there's no one else here.
25:57Come on, Roz.
25:59We're practically family.
26:08Your Honor, I have here a sworn affidavit from Gus Norris, Mr. Dixon's one-time drug dealer.
26:14It clearly states Mr. Dixon was repaying a debt, not buying drugs.
26:18And here is his clean drug test taken the very next day.
26:22Your Honor, the word of a drug dealer and a lone clean drug test do not indicate sobriety.
26:28It isn't just one drug test.
26:30Mr. Dixon gets three per week and they have all been clean.
26:34If he were using, we would know.
26:36Well, I understand better than most Ms. Abrams' reluctance to trust my client after everything
26:44he put her sister through.
26:46Two years ago, someone in my life was struggling with addiction.
26:51I tried my way to be supportive, but I was sure she would relapse.
26:57Rather than celebrate her successes, I kept waiting for her to fail.
27:01Objection.
27:02Mr. Svensson is not a witness, yet he's presenting evidence.
27:06Overruled.
27:08I want to hear what he has to say.
27:11My doubts crept into all areas of her life.
27:13I assumed she couldn't be a good employee.
27:16I certainly assumed she couldn't be a good mother.
27:18She, too, had to fight to keep her children in her life, and thank heaven she did.
27:25Those kids are better for it.
27:26My client is fighting the same battle right now, even though he could have walked away
27:32from his parenting responsibilities.
27:34I took that path with my eldest many years ago, and I regret it to this day.
27:40Your Honor, Mr. Dixon, it's not the problem here.
27:54It's our own preconceptions.
27:57If he is putting in all the hard work to recover from addiction, to earn back our trust,
28:04don't we owe it to him to give him a true second chance?
28:08How'd your date with Robin go last night?
28:34Fantastic.
28:35Did she stay over?
28:36Not your business.
28:38But no.
28:40Did you at least make it out?
28:41Abby!
28:41You know what?
28:41I'm living vicariously here.
28:43First base, second base, any under-the-shirt action?
28:45Now you're just being creepy.
28:47You have got to start dating again.
28:52Wow.
28:54Sophia, you look stunning.
28:57I do, don't I?
28:59So grown up.
29:01Ugh, Mom, you're being maudlin.
29:02But my favorite place of all was the Pantheon.
29:09Ah, yes.
29:11Final resting place for Hugo, Voltaire, Zola.
29:14And the pendulum thing.
29:15Oh, Foucault proved the world was spinning on an axis.
29:19I brought you a gift, Grandpa.
29:21Oh, my.
29:32How jaunty.
29:33I have a green one.
29:35We can wear them together.
29:36I look forward to that.
29:37Oh, I too have a gift for my groomsmen.
29:42Belonged to my father, an Omega Seamaster.
29:47Cool.
29:48Thanks.
30:05Take one of these.
30:07And you slide it down your throat like this.
30:11Roz asked me to move in with her.
30:13That's why I tried to get you to stay at the firm.
30:18Because if we don't work together or live together, we'll never see each other.
30:22You know what?
30:23I'm just going to tell Roz now is not a good time.
30:25No, don't do that.
30:27As much as I'll miss picking up your tube socks and banging my shins on the pull-out couch,
30:33I would never stand in the way of your relationship.
30:37Everything's changing too fast.
30:39I just want things to stay the way they are.
30:41Change is scary.
30:44And we've had a good thing going here.
30:46But change can be exciting too.
30:49I just don't want to lose you as a friend.
30:50We'll always be friends, Cecil.
30:53Why don't we make a pact to see each other at least once a week?
30:58Winston Wednesdays or Cecil Sundays.
31:02Better still, both.
31:03Sounds perfect.
31:04Mom, look at what Grandpa gave me.
31:13Sophia's going to be so jealous.
31:17You look like a million bucks.
31:22I could say the same to you.
31:24How'd your court case turn out?
31:26Judge Lee agreed that Fletcher deserves to be a part of his son's life.
31:29He gets four supervised visits a week to be reviewed in three months.
31:35It's a good start.
31:39Apologies, but I need to steal the groom.
31:42Ceremony's about to begin.
31:48Here we go.
31:49Everyone, please, take your seats.
32:00Hi, Nico.
32:01Hi, Uncle Daniel.
32:03Did Grandpa give you a groomsman's gift too?
32:05Sure did.
32:06My sister stuck molt bloke pen.
32:08I got something too, but mine's old.
32:12You gave Nico Pop-Pop's watch?
32:20He didn't even know him.
32:21Exactly.
32:22You did know him.
32:23He was a terrible father.
32:26And let's be honest.
32:28I wasn't much better.
32:29Dad.
32:30But you, Danny.
32:33I can see how invested you are.
32:36Your child is going to get so much more from you.
32:39I know.
32:40Watch.
32:42I know.
33:07I know.
33:08I know.
33:08I know.
33:09I know.
33:09ORGAN PLAYS
33:39ORGAN PLAYS
34:09ORGAN PLAYS
34:11Hey.
34:13Hey.
34:14Have you given Dad an answer?
34:16Not yet.
34:18I was surprised you were okay with it.
34:22Honestly, I thought I had an out.
34:24My mom made me an offer.
34:26Tick so many boxes.
34:28But?
34:30I'm always just gonna be Danny to both of them.
34:33I can never just be my own person.
34:34What are you gonna do?
34:40I don't know.
34:43I've never felt more blessed than I do today.
34:47With Joanne at my side,
34:49two of us surrounded by
34:50our dearest friends and family.
34:53Thank you so much for sharing our special day.
34:56Now, please dig in.
34:58Uh, I know you're all starving,
35:01but I'd just like to say
35:02a few things.
35:06If you'd asked me a year ago
35:07if I thought this
35:09do-over marriage was a good idea,
35:11I would have said,
35:12hell no.
35:12These two bring out the worst
35:14in each other.
35:15But they also bring out the best.
35:23No one makes my mom laugh
35:24like this guy.
35:27And no one challenges Harry
35:28like this woman.
35:31They share a lot in common.
35:33Like they both hate
35:34wearing pajamas in the morning.
35:35I thought their shared history
35:43was enough to keep them apart.
35:45Forever.
35:47But in fact,
35:49it's brought them closer together.
35:52Because they're grown up enough
35:54to understand
35:55that people can evolve
35:57and grow
35:59and change.
36:04And while I wouldn't exactly
36:05call the model parents,
36:07is anyone here a model parent?
36:08Nope.
36:09They're here for us
36:16and for their grandkids
36:18when the chips are down.
36:22They took me in
36:24when I needed help.
36:29And I've never really
36:30thanked them for that.
36:31So,
36:31this seems like
36:34as good a time as any.
36:37Thank you, Mom.
36:42Thank you, Dad.
