178
00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:23,918
after we connected last night.
179
00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:26,613
Everything was good.
180
00:07:26,771 --> 00:07:28,176
The place was clean.
181
00:07:28,455 --> 00:07:30,308
She'd already stocked the fridge.
182
00:07:32,515 --> 00:07:34,887
There's a hearing scheduled
this afternoon.
183
00:07:36,043 --> 00:07:37,586
I'm going to recommend to the court
184
00:07:37,620 --> 00:07:39,808
that Shauna get custody of her daughter.
185
00:07:43,020 --> 00:07:44,543
Sorry, you got to be joking.
186
00:07:45,904 --> 00:07:48,306
(LAUGHS) Look, um, I've tried
187
00:07:48,331 --> 00:07:50,332
to keep an open mind
throughout this whole thing,
188
00:07:50,366 --> 00:07:51,996
but she gets out,
189
00:07:52,324 --> 00:07:54,169
and the first thing,
the first thing she does,
190
00:07:54,203 --> 00:07:56,127
she storms over to our house uninvited.
191
00:07:56,152 --> 00:07:57,262
She makes a scene.
192
00:07:57,287 --> 00:07:59,508
- She gets in my wife's face.
- Randall...
193
00:07:59,542 --> 00:08:02,110
No. I'm sor...
you got to say yours, Linda.
194
00:08:02,145 --> 00:08:04,418
She freaks out my kids,
195
00:08:04,605 --> 00:08:07,149
she freaks out her own
daughter, and then Deja
196
00:08:07,183 --> 00:08:08,941
has to talk her down
like she's the child.
197
00:08:09,105 --> 00:08:11,387
But she put food in the
fridge, so it's all good?
198
00:08:12,021 --> 00:08:14,207
She had a gun in her car, Linda.
199
00:08:14,316 --> 00:08:15,691
I don't care whose it was.
200
00:08:15,725 --> 00:08:17,827
What's to say there won't
soon be one in her house?
201
00:08:17,852 --> 00:08:18,643
You done?
202
00:08:18,668 --> 00:08:20,596
- Oh, I'm not even close.
- It's not my job
203
00:08:20,630 --> 00:08:22,191
to predict the future, Randall.
204
00:08:22,365 --> 00:08:25,355
It's my job to make a judgment
based on the present.
205
00:08:25,380 --> 00:08:28,246
And presently, Shauna's doing well.
206
00:08:28,671 --> 00:08:31,139
She's even made inroads
into getting her job back
207
00:08:31,174 --> 00:08:32,507
- at the supermarket.
- The girl's hair
208
00:08:32,542 --> 00:08:34,004
was falling out from stress.
209
00:08:34,558 --> 00:08:38,013
She flinched every time
my husband walked in a room.
210
00:08:38,152 --> 00:08:39,933
But Shauna is making inroads,
211
00:08:39,958 --> 00:08:42,832
so let's throw a freakin' parade.
212
00:08:44,215 --> 00:08:45,687
I need to remind you both
213
00:08:45,722 --> 00:08:48,308
that this is exactly
what you signed up for.
214
00:08:48,333 --> 00:08:49,347
Mm.
215
00:08:51,728 --> 00:08:53,660
We know what we signed up for, Linda.
216
00:08:54,551 --> 00:08:57,535
This has nothing to do
with our attachment to Deja.
217
00:08:57,785 --> 00:08:59,401
The woman that we saw last night
218
00:08:59,435 --> 00:09:01,136
is not fit to take care of a child.
219
00:09:01,170 --> 00:09:02,402
And we're gonna fight it.
220
00:09:02,449 --> 00:09:03,777
We talked about it last night.
221
00:09:03,802 --> 00:09:05,503
We're meeting with our lawyer today.
222
00:09:05,708 --> 00:09:07,871
- Your lawyer?
- Shauna trespassed.
223
00:09:08,411 --> 00:09:09,824
She threatened us.
224
00:09:09,849 --> 00:09:13,058
Surely, any of those alone
violates her parole,
225
00:09:13,083 --> 00:09:14,863
so if we decide to press charges...
226
00:09:14,888 --> 00:09:16,685
- You're making a mistake here.
- Sorry. Have you ever made
227
00:09:16,719 --> 00:09:17,871
a bad call, Linda?
228
00:09:20,832 --> 00:09:22,824
You ever returned a kid to a situation
229
00:09:22,859 --> 00:09:24,526
that they never should have returned to?
230
00:09:26,224 --> 00:09:28,621
My job isn't a perfect science, Randall.
231
00:09:31,995 --> 00:09:34,029
You know what, I got to get
the girls to school.
232
00:09:34,470 --> 00:09:37,005
I got two different drop-offs
at two different schools,
233
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:38,707
'cause that's how we do it here,
234
00:09:38,741 --> 00:09:40,242
in a house that's always clean,
235
00:09:40,276 --> 00:09:41,877
with a fridge that's always stocked.
236
00:09:41,911 --> 00:09:43,845
- I think we should keep talking.
- And I don't think
237
00:09:43,880 --> 00:09:45,402
there's anything left to say.
238
00:09:48,959 --> 00:09:50,043

I wasn't gonna come after you.

372

You were asking
about where you came from.
374
00:17:09,280 --> 00:17:10,480
She was struggling
375
00:17:10,514 --> 00:17:11,815
with whether to tell you about me
376
00:17:11,849 --> 00:17:13,035
or keep you from me.
377
00:17:13,652 --> 00:17:14,894
I was clean then.

383

She doesn't want you to do this."

I might never find you again.
