["Blow My Mind" playing]
I thought you might be dead. [breathes shakily]
[Jinx scoffs] No. I'm not dead.
I-I just found out. I was in rehab. They take away your phone.
Rehab?
I came as soon as…
[inhales deeply] I'm so sorry.
And I'm here.
I'm here.
Mmm.
[sighs]
[Susie] Oh, my fucking God.
Hi.
Uh. Susie, this is Jinx.
[Susie] Mm-hmm.
This is my father.
[tender music playing]
He's your dad?
[stammers] And you didn't tell me because…
Well…
Yeah. Susie's a fan.
And I was embarrassed, um…
I don't know. Just… Not of you. Just, it felt weird.
[Bodhi babbles]
Is that him?
Can I meet him?
You're a grandpa.
Everyone says he's beautiful. So, I'm going with that.
He's the most beautiful.
Oh, I-I brought you a check.
Sold an old bike.
It's not much, but I'm-I'm… I'm sorry I wasn't able to call you back.
Where are you staying?
Um…
Well, for tonight I gotta figure, uh, and then starting tomorrow,
uh, guess I gotta figure that too.
Can I hold him?
He's a little fussy.
[groaning]
[exhales] Hey.
Hey, little man.
Wow.
He likes you.
[chuckles]
Wow.
It's fine if you wanna stay the night tonight.
Wow.

[sighs] I know. I'm sorry. He'll be gone soon.
[Susie] Oh, it's okay.
I just can't believe Jinx is in my apartment.
[Jinx] Morning.
Hey. Morning.
- [Jinx] Mmm. - How'd you sleep?
[Jinx] Like a baby.
Speaking of which, I still cannot believe that this tiny human…
[both chuckle]
He just cries nonstop with Mom.
Um, how… How is she? Shyanne.
She's good. She just got…
new and improved implants. [chuckles]
They're amazing.
She always did have the best.
If I may. I would like to apologize for my flummoxed state last night.
The thing is, you… [chuckles]
You're my favorite wrestler.
I understand. And I thank you.
[chuckles]
So, what have we got on for today?
Uh, a job interview and a, uh, meeting.
Oh, you… You want me to watch Bodhi?
No. Not at all. We're gonna tag team this.
All right. Go get 'em, baby.
Yeah.
[door opens, closes]
[Margo] You want this?
[babbles]
[Margo] Yeah.
Be a good boy.
Mommy has an interview. Yes.
- Miss Millet. - Oh. Yes.
You brought a baby?
[chuckles] Yes, uh, this is Bodhi.
Of course, I would obviously have child care in place, should I get a job.
I… [snorts] …do not intend to bring Bodhi to work. [chuckles]
- [Bodhi babbles, squeals] - But you brought him here.
Ooh. [chuckles]
Well, I-I apologize if that's a problem.
[sighs]
Work experience, I'm seeing waitressing.
"Delivered food and drinks promptly while managing time between orders."
That's kind of the same thing.
"Froyo Go, frozen yogurt barista. Maintained yogurt and topping levels."
It says, "toppling."
That's a typo and I won't hold that against you. [chuckles]
So, anything else?
Yes, um, my writing skills are a strength.
I was actually studying it in school at the time I became pregnant.
[sighs]
My professor, in fact, said… [mutters]
Your professor said what?
That, um… I have a gift.
Meaning with my writing.
Hmm.
Cool.
So, writing, bookkeeping skills, waitressing.
Anything else?
Exactly. [scoffs]
I beg your pardon?
Anything else. Whatever job there is. Even manual labor.
I'm open to digging ditches even.
Looks like you've already dug one.
[Bodhi babbles]
[Becca] She sounds like a total bitch.
- Yeah, she sorta was. - I take it she didn't place you?
No. She said that she'd keep her eyes peeled for any waitress offer openings.
[scoffs] You should chronicle all of this.
Raising Baby. Like a Stephen King horror thing.
- Maybe. - When life comes at you,
you write it down.
[GPS] Your destination is 200 feet ahead on the right.
Okay. I gotta go. I have my big sit-down with Godzilla mom.
I love you. Talk later, bye.
[whimsical music playing]
Can I help you?
I'm here to see Mr. Boch.
He's on the sixth floor.
[elevator chimes]
Hi.
[chuckling] Well,
- we certainly weren't expecting this. - [Boch chuckles]
Sorry. My…
My nanny had to briefly return to Sweden to pick up her Nobel.
[chuckles] Hello. I'm Lawrence J. Boch.
Margo M. Millet.
Margo, won't you have a seat?
[Elizabeth clears throat]
Mark has informed us of your threat.
[scoffs] I didn't threaten him.
[Elizabeth] Now, you listen to me.
I have been accused of looking like a racoon.
Well, I actually have the disposition of one as well.
Cute and cuddly until I'm fucked with.
All right, Elizabeth. Allow me.
Margo, my approach to the practice of law is a bit unconventional.
I like to take the fastest path to happy.
Now, does that seem like a path that would appeal to you?
It sounds lovely.
It is.
My client was quite unsettled when you showed up at his office yesterday.
He was, in fact, deeply unsettled.
He detected a tenor of blackmail.
Blackmail?
[Elizabeth] Oh, you must think you're so clever.
- With your little trap. - Elizabeth, please.
Margo, we are prepared to tender a check.
This would be $50,000 for your child placed into a trust.
Invested into a mutual fund.
That money, of course, would compound and grow.
By the time the child turns 18, it would have an approximate value of…
around $300,000.
That money would vest and become his at that time.
- Oh. - In exchange…
You will agree to not attend Fullerton either now or in the future.
You will further agree not to contact Mark or his family.
And you would need to sign a nondisclosure agreement,
along with a release of all future claims.
[Bodhi babbles]
[Elizabeth] So?
Do you agree?
I… I agree.
[Susie] Are you sure?
But that means you can't use that money.
How are you gonna pay next month's rent?
I know.
But a trust fund for Bodhi?
Yeah.
Hey, uh, where are you now?
I'm almost home. I'll see you in a sec.
Oh, good. 'Cause, um…
"Um," what?
- Hey. - Hey.
[sighs] So, what's going on?
Well, he's been cleaning all day. Your dad.
And he's in there right now… [whispering] …buffing out the appliances.
What?
Dad? What are you doing?
[Jinx] It's an oven. Not a wok.
[groans] You really don't need to be doing that.
I kinda do. It occupies me.
[grunts, sighs] Hungry?
[Jinx] How's my little man?
[Margo sighs] He's good.
Oh, you should probably switch to the other so you don't get lopsided.
[knocks on door]
I got it.
Don't get up, Susie.
What the fuck?
What are you doing here?
Yeah, I-I was a little late for the May Day party.
I should say so.
You look really good.
Mom. [chuckles] Why are you here?
Uh, my daughter lives here. My grandson.
[Margo] Yeah, I know. Of course. I mean, you're always welcome.
It's just… [chuckles] You didn't tell me.
[Shyanne] I wanted to surprise you.
I, um, brought your dress.
- Dress? - Yeah. For my, um… my… my thing.
What thing?
It's your maid of honor dress.
- [gasps] Oh, I'm your maid of honor? - Mmm.
Wait. You're getting married?
Yes, um, I'm engaged to a very lovely man.
W-Wow.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
Uh, it's probably tight across the top, but I think by wedding day and…
We have a fitting. Uh, 9:00 a.m. Wednesday.
[squeals] My God, it's incredible.
- Yeah? You really like it? You promise? - [gasps]
It's, like, one of the most beautiful dresses I've ever seen.
Yeah. It really is beautiful.
[inhales deeply]
You know, your hand… Oil.
Um, okay.
Well… [smacks lips] …my shift starts in 30 minutes,
so, I… [sighs] …I guess I better be going.
So, Jinx, it was really nice to see you again.
- Cool. - And, um,
I'll shoot you the address for the fitting.
Okay. Bye!
[Margo] Bye.
Yeah.
Dad, you okay?
Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine.
Uh… [stammers] …I gotta clean that… Clean some stuff up.
I gotta make a diaper run.
Do you think you could watch him for like, an hour?
Oh, yeah. Sure.
Thanks. [sighs]
- [typing] - [cash register beeping]
[cashier] Your total comes out to $238.
- [Bodhi crying] - [announcer] Finishing kick!
Oh, okay. Okay.
- It's… [chuckles] …a little dramatic. - [chuckles] Little man.
- Here. Give him to me. - Oh.
[grunts]
You just gotta give him a little bounce.
- Ooh. There he is. - Oh.
Yeah. He's okay.
[babbling]
- [Jinx] Hey, baby. - Hey.
Hey. [sighs] How's he doing?
- Oh, he's doing just awesome. - [kisses]
Because you're an awesome little man.
- [chuckles] - All right.
Just coming through. Time for a little nap.
Slo-mo body slam.
[mimics explosion]
Oh, wait. That's Arabella.
I didn't know she went to AEW.
Yeah, it happened months ago.
Well, she was with WWE, but then her contract got terminated
because she…
Uh, you heard of OnlyFans?
Yeah, of course. Everyone has. It's amateur porn.
Well, it's not just porn.
True. A lot of cosplayers make bank on OnlyFans.
Arabella had a following, I heard.
But WWE didn't wanna be associated with it.
Like how much?
Sorry?
How much money did she make?
She said she made more in one month on OnlyFans
than in a whole year of wrestling.
- [chuckles] - [Jinx] Oh.
Hush, hush. She's about to do her finisher.
- Yes! Oh. - [chuckles]
Okay. If I were gonna kill a man, that is how I would do it.
Mmm.
[grunts]
Hey.
[Jinx] Listen.
Um, Susie mentioned that you might be looking for a roommate.
And I need a place to live.
Oh. [gulps]
Um… Well…
I mean, look, I can't contribute a ton for rent.
The divorce wiped me out, but I can cook and I can clean.
And the idea of getting to spend time with you. Lost time.
[chuckles] Okay. I think I got my answer.
It's not… Um…
No, we do need a roommate and it would be nice to spend time with you.
But?
I know the statistics on drug addicts.
And if you were gonna stay here, you would have to be clean…
if you were gonna be around Bodhi.
Margo… I am clean.
I am the one who checked myself into rehab.
Why me? Why don't you ask Andrea or one of the boys?
I mean, I checked their Instagrams. I know they're financially stable.
My therapist thinks that the stress of those relationships
might cause me to relapse.
And the idea of getting your own place?
I would definitely relapse.
I mean, there would be no one to perform sanity for.
[inhales deeply]
You two decide. Um…
I'm okay with whatever.
[door closes]
How bad did it get?
Uh, you know, I've had multiple surgeries on my spine over the years.
[somber music playing]
Not taking the pain pills wasn't an option.
Taking them as prescribed wasn't an option.
Hoarding them, abusing them, taking a lot at once.
Uh… And then it was heroin.
[inhales deeply]
But I am determined…
and desperate… not to go back to that place.
You know I love you.
Do you know that, Dad?
[sighs]
[sniffles]
You can stay.
- [breathes shakily] - [breathes deeply]
Just take some time. Take some time and think about it, you and Susie.
- [breathes deeply] - I want you to stay.

It's not even a song that champions love.
- [slurps] - "Fools rush in."
- You think we're being foolish? - Mmm. [smacks lips] No.

a better way to say that?

[stutters] Wait a second. Wait.
Jinx is moving into your apartment?
- It's a little risky. I know. - No, it's not risky.
- It's insane. Have you lost your mind? - Mom.
You have a child.
Yeah. And he can help with the child care thing.
I lost my job. Remember?
And the day care has like, a six-month wait-list.
Oh, my fucking God.
Is everything okay?
- We need a moment. - Oh. [mutters]
What are you thinking?
He will not be a good influence on Bodhi.
Was he a bad influence on me?
He wasn't around long enough.
Why are you so angry?
You have to break out of this pattern.
What pattern?
This pattern of doing things that…
without thinking about the consequences.
Meaning what? Me getting knocked up?
Yes. A freshman getting knocked up by her lit professor.
- That's exactly what I'm talking about. - Oh, fuck off.
[gasps] What did you say?
I said, "Fuck off!"
I am your mother! He was never your father.
But no, you don't go telling him to fuck off, do you?
No, it's, "Oh, move in, Dad. Share my Netflix password."
Do you know hard it was being a single mother?
Yeah. I have an idea.
An idea.
'Cause I promise you, it gets harder.
Seems like you want me to apologize for my conception as well.
This is so like him.
He would swoop in every six months, hand you a toy and be a hero.
[sighs] Did you think for one second to say,
"Hey, Mom. Can we move back in with you?"
[Margo] What?
Y-You swallowed your whole house with, uh,
your clothes and your shoes and your serums.
So, no, I don't think there's room for a Pack and Play.
It doesn't mean you couldn't ask!

Uh-oh.
Mmm, college can do that to you.
What's going on?
Well, I'm just not sure about Jinx moving in.
It's wild, I know.
[door closes]
Well, he's maybe turned your mom into a crazy person.
[sighs] He's good with the baby and he cleans the bathroom, so…
- Okay. - With a toothbrush.
Margo, that's a lot.
It's… It's so a lot. [sighs]
[Susie] Two seconds.
Can I make, like, a radical suggestion? Please don't hate me for it.
What?
[inhales sharply] That professor of yours, he was right about one thing.
You can write. You have a future.
[door opens]
That's not a suggestion.
You should be at university.
[scoffs] Yeah, like that's going to happen.
It could happen. Here's where the radical part comes in.
Foster care. Just temporary while you get your life together.
You place Bodhi with a loving foster family,
one who lives close by--
Have you lost your mind?
Well, and then you could see him every day.
[stammers] How could you even make that suggestion?
Bodhi needs a mom who has her act together.
Yeah, well, I have my fucking act together.
You don't have to get mad.
Well, I am mad.
I mean, what kind of person just casually places their kid in foster care?
Don't get all high on me. You were fucking somebody's husband.

I came to apologize.
I shouldn't have got so upset with you.
But with you.
Could you excuse us for a second?
What? This is my apartment.
I'd like to have a word with your father. Okay?
This is a mistake.
It's wrong.
[clicks tongue] I'm sorry you feel that way.
How selfish can you be?
You near destroyed her life when you walked out.
What now?
You want to finish the job and walk back in?
From my observation, our daughter is not near destroyed.
Yeah, because I saw to it.
And I will continue to see to it.
Margo is still a child. She has a child.
She doesn't need to be taking on another one with you.
Mom, I think that you've said enough.
[Shyanne] You are hanging by a thread.
It's not you, it's just the reality of-of being a single mom
with li-little money, little help. A thread.
I've been there. He hasn't.
And him being here now--
You've said enough.
[sighs]
Wow.
[clicks tongue] Bye-bye, Daddy.

[Margo sighs] I'm sorry.
That was… That was unfair.
[Jinx] No, it wasn't.
I've got-I've got no right being seen in the light
you evidently see me in.
But I will earn it.
I-I will become a person you can be proud of, and my grandson.
Yeah.
It makes sense that you should probably go, Dad.

you were duty bound to take issue.

that's coming out of people's mouths around here.
The nonsense like how you ruined my life,
or might have ruined it or…
You made my life.
Made it hard, but…
made it just the same.
[inhales deeply]
And somehow you made me.
Here I am.
I'm on the precipice of utter greatness.
