The Fosters (2013–2018): Season 3, Episode 7 - Faith, Hope, Love - full transcript

Stef and Lena hesitate to give their blessing when Mariana's biological grandfather tells her she must be baptized in order to be her new half-sister Isabella's godmother. Callie's actions ...

Previously on The Fosters...

- Where'd you get the phone?
- Brandon was right.

I'm glad you're back in touch with Ty.

All I ask is that you keep me in the loop.

Mariana...

Ana... she put us all through a lot.

It's gonna take time to trust her.

I would like to buy myself a car.

For now, the answer is no.

Happy Birthday!

I saved it from my
quincea?era and my allowance...



So you can get a car
that moms will approve.

But what if we bought a car together?

I'm in.

I was talking to my pianist, Jin...

And I said, what a raw
deal I thought you got.

So that means I'm back in?

You had sex with Wyatt?

It only happened once.

And what about lying to me?
Is that a one time thing, too?

"Super Callie?" You're such a dork.

So, what kind of powers
does Super Callie have?

Does she fly?

She doesn't just fly...

It's more like...
gravitational manipulation.



Like riding gravity waves.

Yeah, she flies.

And why do you only...

draw, like, superheroes?

Uh...

I understand those kinda stories.

What? Are you about to
tell me you're like...

- like Captain America or something?
- No.

I guess I just spent a long time hoping that
I'm more than what the world thinks of me.

Well, thank you...

for the... for the drawing.

It's my favorite birthday gift.

It's your favorite?

Wait. Is that him?

Lookin' good, mister man!

Ty, this is Callie.

She's the girl that got
me with her foster family.

I appreciate you lookin'
out for my baby bro, Callie.

It's been hard for him being the less

- handsome Hensdale boy...
- Hey!

It's nice to meet you, Ty.

Um, I'm gonna go meet Mariana,
but I'll see you at home.

All right.

I see you got yourself a little shorty.

Oh, there ain't nothing going on.

So, does she know?

- Know what?
- That we're leaving.

Okay.

I guess these belong to you now.

Ah! Thank you.

Ooh! Don't forget to move
your car for street cleaning.

Those tickets are a racket!

Thank you for the heads up.

Oh, my God!

I can't believe we just bought a car.

So...

What should we name her?

How about "Lucille"?

She looks like a Lucille.

Do you want to break her in?
I could use a ride to work.

Well, I can't drive you
anywhere until we have insurance.

And since we're not 18, that's
gonna require telling Moms.

Okay. Well, do you wanna
break the news then?

Mariana, it's not that simple.

We can't just tell Moms we bought a car,

and then hit them up for money for
insurance. That stuff's expensive.

Okay.

Between the two of us, it
shouldn't take long to save up.

Yeah, until then, Lucille has
to stay parked on the street.

Okay, fine.

I guess I'll just ride the bus.

I guess you will, huh?

Callie, is that you?

- Yeah!
- Could you come here, please?

Hey!

Um... what are you...

We asked Rita to stop by

because we wanted to talk
to her about you and A.J.

Um, what about us?

I saw the two of you kiss, after the party.

Uh... okay, it only happened that once.

And I know that nothing... we can't...

while he's living here, so...

Do you like A.J.?

I don't know how I feel.

But I do know that I
don't want a bunch of...

drama again.

And yet, here we are.

Honey, we just...

We can't risk anything
affecting your adoption.

The only way to protect everyone...

is to separate you and A.J.

You guys can't live in this house together.

So, what are you gonna do?

So, the plan is, we share Jin.

The three of us agreed to a Chinese wall.

No pun intended.

I'm completely neutral.

I promise I won't say anything
about what the other's working on.

You sure you're okay
taking on two composers?

It's a lot of extra work.

It's also two shots to play at Disney Hall.

All right, then.

Welcome back, Brandon.

Thank you for giving me
another shot, guys. Seriously.

This place is crazy and
everyone's so intense.

It's nice to make some real friends.

No worries, man.

We gotta look out for
each other when we can.

Shouldn't he be home by now?

Well, I'm sure he's just running late.

Do you feel like you
need me to stick around?

No, I got it.

And I think it's better
if I talk to him alone.

All right.

Hey!

- Hey!
- How'd it go with Ty?

Um, it was good.

He really wants to meet you,

like we talked about. That's okay, right?

- Yeah.
- All right.

I just want him to see that
you're cool and everything.

Yeah, of course. Any time.

Listen, uh,

there's something else
we need to talk about.

Well, whatever happened to that
girl? What was her name? Kat?

Oh, yeah. Um, she got kicked out

and went back to Toronto.

Wow! So, what's your story, A.J.?

What kind of stuff are you into?

- Um...
- Oh! He's a really good artist.

- Yeah?
- He did this super-awesome

superhero drawing for Callie's birthday.

What did you call her?

Um, Super Callie.

That's funny. Callie,
how's your app coming...

that whole, you know,
work-study independent thing?

Well, it's fine.
Actually, I have to present

for the advisor's board tomorrow.

Fingers crossed. But, no, I'm
like, really excited about it.

I picked up a bunch of coding from Mariana.

That's cool. What's coding?
Seriously. No, what is it?

Well, we have a little
bit of an announcement...

Um...

A.J. is not going to be
staying with us any longer.

He isn't?

- He's going to be staying with Rita.
- Yes.

Just until I get my foster license.

Why?

Uh, our license is expired,

and with Callie's adoption coming up soon,

you know, we're not going
to take the courses to renew.

We just have a lot on our plates right now.

Yeah, and I'm happy to host A.J.
at my place for a couple of weeks.

When are you leaving?

Oh, Rita has just gotta get
a quick home-study from CPS.

- So, probably a day or two.
- Yeah.

Well, we'll be sorry to see you go.

We really will.

At least there'll be one less person
in the bathroom in the morning, right?

You said it.

That's positive thinking.

Well, I was gonna wait for
Jude to get back from Connor's

to make my big announcement,

but it seems like we
kinda need some good news.

So...

Ana asked me to be Isabella's godmother.

- Oh, honey!
- Well, that's really great, love.

- That's a great honor.
- It sure is.

And Isabella's not the only
one that's gonna get baptized.

- Meaning?
- I am, too.

In the Catholic church?

- Yeah.
- No.

What do you mean, no?

I mean no.

Okay, yeah, yeah, yeah. I
know what you're thinking,

but this is not Brandon all over again.

Okay, this thing with A.J...
yeah, it shouldn't have happened,

but it's not like I'm in love with him.

Okay.

Listen...

I've been doing really,
really good on my food plan.

Really. I've been, like,
dieting and exercising and...

Um, I lost a little bit of weight.
Thanks so much for noticing.

Okay?

Uh, last week,

I ate a cake.

Not a piece of cake.

An entire cake.

Right? And I didn't even really enjoy it.

And I felt so bad about myself. I'm
like, "Rita, why did you do that?"

"Why did you eat the whole
cake?" Then I realized.

It was a habit.

I did it because it's a habit.

And habits...

they are really hard to break. Right?

You gotta be smart, Callie.

You can't go through life just
repeating the same mistakes.

I won't. I promise.

- Promise?
- Promise.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

Okay.

Hey.

Hey, um...

I'm sorry... about all this.

I mean, it's not fair.

It's not all bad. Maybe
if I'm at Rita's, we can...

No, we can't.

Um...

I have a lot going on right now.

And I really... I just
need to focus on myself.

Okay. Yeah.

I get it.

I just... I don't get the big deal.

Didn't you baptize Brandon?

Yes...

But that was more for my father.

Well, why can't I do
this for Ana and Victor?

Victor's just worried that...

If I don't, he won't see me in heaven.

- Oh, my God.
- Honey, that is just ridiculous.

Not to him.

And don't you think it's
a good insurance policy?

I mean, just in case.

We don't believe in
heaven and hell, Mariana.

Well, then what do we believe in?

It's not like we ever go to
church. Do we even believe in God?

Well...

We believe in love.

And in a higher power that
lives within all things.

One that inspires us

to be kind and compassionate to each other.

What we don't believe in, is
an angry old man up in the sky,

threatening to send us to
hell, if we don't do as he says.

I don't like the Gutierrezes scaring you.

I'm not scared.

And look, I know the Catholic church
isn't, like, pro-choice or whatever,

and it doesn't support gay marriage.

Or the use of contraception.

But I don't have to believe in
any of that. I'm not converting.

I just... I want to be
Isabella's godmother,

and I can't if I don't get baptized.

- Hey!
- Hi.

So, you sorry to see him go?

I know you aren't.

I mean, are you buying the reasons
Moms say he has to go to Rita's?

Why? Aren't you?

Yeah, I mean, I guess so.

So, how's Idyllwild?

Uh, good. Well, I think.

I'm trying something kind of...

Weird for my new piece.

Um, and I have to play a
part of it in class this week,

and I'm just thinking
it might be too risky.

So...

If you're asking my advice, I don't
know the black keys from the white ones,

but isn't there someone at
Idyllwild that you trust?

Yeah...

I guess.

There you go.

So, what'd you think?
Am I... crazy? Be honest.

Prepared piano...

- It's bold.
- Too bold?

There's no such thing.

Is it risky? Hell, yeah.

But that doesn't mean
you shouldn't play it.

Okay, but put yourself in my shoes here.

I'm not exactly in a position

to take risks, you know.

Not after they just barely
let me back into the program.

I'm for it.

I've never heard anything
like it played here.

But of course, I don't have a vote.

What would you do?

I still have time to convert it, you know,

back to a traditional piece.

Ah! You know I can't make
that decision for you, dude.

Look, you just gotta go with this.

You gotta go with your gut.

Right, yeah.

Go with my gut.

And what's your gut saying
when you want to throw up?

Wait. So, your moms don't want
you to be the godmother anymore?

Why not?

I don't know. I think it just
kinda caught them off-guard.

- They'll come around.
- I hope so.

Abuelo Victor's been talking about
it all morning. He's so excited.

Stop monitoring my every move!

Just tell me why you need a refill.

Those pills should've
lasted you another week.

Because I ran out, okay?

I lost them and I needed some more.

It's none of your business anyway!

It is my business, Ana, if you
are abusing your pain medication.

Well, I'm not! So, stop
scrutinizing every single thing I do.

I just need some air.

Ana?

Back to work, mijas. Andale.

I'll be in the back.

Hey. What are you...

We would like to have a conversation

with the Gutierrezes, if that's all right?

Our church provides us
with a sense of community

and a sense of purpose.

We just wanted to share that with Mariana.

Is that so bad?

You told our daughter
that she's going to hell.

- I never said that.
- Really?

Okay, but if you're afraid

that you won't meet her in heaven,

what other option is there, Victor?

If Mariana isn't baptized before she dies,

her soul will be in limbo.

And we don't want her to
suffer, waiting for purification,

before she joins God in heaven.

- We didn't mean to overstep.
- Mmm.

Hey, um... my moms just want
to talk about the baptism.

We wouldn't be in this position
if Ana had had her children

baptized in the first place.

It's something I really regret.

We hear you, and we understand, Ana...

but here's the thing.

Jesus and Mariana are not your children.

Or your grandchildren.

You have a relationship with
Mariana because we allow it.

It's not your place to parent her.

They're right. They're her parents.

I'm sorry. I should've asked
permission before any of this.

Yes. Yes, you should have.

Fine. You're right. Absolutely.

But let me ask you something.

You don't go to church, right?

No, we don't.

So, do you not believe in God?

That's a fairly personal question, Elena.

Okay. Then, tell me this.

Is there any reason you don't want
your children to believe in God?

Ty. Mike.

Nice to finally meet you.

Hey!

Can I get you something to drink?

- Water's cool.
- Okay.

So, he's a cop?

Ty, be cool.

So...

A lonely white cop wants
to foster a black teen.

Oh, I've seen this movie before.

Let me guess. You're gonna save
my brother from being dangerous,

violent, and criminally inclined, right?

Um...

I'm not interested in saving anybody.

I'm fostering A.J., so I
can provide him with a home.

Until he ages out.

He's almost 18. What?

You need a few months of
government checks that bad?

Ty!

It's okay.

Look, I'm not just in
this till he turns 18.

I'm not gonna just throw him out!

I want him to go to
college, get an education.

I'm gonna support him any way I can.

Look, I'm not in this for just
a few months. This is forever.

Foster kids have no control

over where they live,

who they live with.

So, this app, "Fost and Found,"

will give them the access
and information they need,

so they can have some power,

so they can make decisions for themselves.

Why can't they just look those
things up on the Internet?

Well, most foster kids

don't know what they need.

So, they don't know what to search for.

So, this web app will help direct them.

You know, like two
organizations that provide

donated prom dresses or...

two dental clinics that
provide free teeth cleanings.

There's even a summer camp
for foster kids that's free.

But most of us don't even
know these things exist.

I know I didn't.

That's all great stuff,

no doubt about it,

but your old independent
study at the drop-in center

was so interactive.

You got such terrific
face-to-face time with the kids.

This just seems so much less...

immersive.

So, how much longer were you
at that other foster house

before you moved in here?

I'm actually moving out of that house

and into a different
one for a little while.

Mike still hasn't gotten
his foster license.

Say what now? Why are
you moving around so much?

I kissed my foster sister.

Hold up. That Callie girl?

- Why doesn't she have to move out?
- Because...

Because the black kid kissed the
white girl, and that's a big no.

That's not how it is, Ty.
One of her moms is black.

Whatever. They're moving your ass out
because they're gettin' rid of you.

- They don't want you to have anything to do with that girl.
- No, man. It's not like that.

Listen to me, A.J...

This Mike is not your forever father.

They are getting rid of you.

As sure as I'm sitting here,

as soon as you wake up

and realize that, you give me a call.

Hey! You guys hungry? Grub's up.

Great work, Brandon.

Really nice. Glad to have you back.

That's all we have time for. We'll
hear from the rest of you tomorrow.

Dude, that was sweet.

Really tight.

Thanks for, you know, the advice.

No, all I said was to follow your gut.

You can't go wrong with that.

Hey! So...

I liked your piece.

I really did, but I feel like
you're holding back, Brandon.

You've got to be more imaginative,

braver, and bolder.

This is the time to take chances.

You're not going to get anywhere...
definitely not Disney hall...

by playing it safe.

So, CPS did the home
visit, so we're good to go.

- Great!
- I thought, maybe,

we could go over some house rules
before we move you in tomorrow?

Okay.

So, I saw you and Brandon

get into it at Callie's party.

And Mike told me...

that you're talking to your brother and
that's fine, but there will be no lying.

Understood?

- Yes, ma'am.
- Okay.

I also know that you're the reason that
Callie got fired from the drop-in center.

What? What do you mean, Callie got fired?

What happened?

It was before I even met you.

It's kinda how I ended up in detention.

What did you do?

She let me spend the night there,

and I took off.

Stole some spray paint.

I see.

She didn't want Stef and
Lena to find out, so...

Okay.

Listen, didn't mean to narc on you there.

Okay?

But the point is,

there are no second chances with me.

There'll be no lying,

no stealing,

no running away, no fighting.

One strike and you're out.

You got it?

Got it.

I can't believe she had the nerve to ask us

if we didn't want our
kids to believe in God.

What the hell was that?

And what the hell business is it of theirs?

I agree with you, love. I
totally, absolutely agree with you.

But you know, we haven't exactly
exposed our kids to anything.

We don't go to church. We don't pray.

I mean, is it our fault
that Mariana went running

to the first person that
talked to her about God?

No, no, no, no. This was not an invitation
to learn more about the Catholic church.

This was... this was an
ultimatum. This was blackmail.

Victor literally said, you cannot
be godmother if you're not baptized.

What is that?

It's their beliefs.

Well...

It's not their place to impose
their beliefs on our daughter.

I agree.

But, you know, we've always said

that we would allow our children
to choose their own spiritual paths.

I don't know. When does
that... when does that start?

I should've told you about the
drop-in center and everything.

Trying to protect Callie?

I know.

Look...

Are you interested in her?

Like, romantically?

Relax, it's not a trick question.

I honestly want to know.

Yeah, I guess.

I mean, I'm not sure
she's interested in me,

but if she was, would that be a problem?

I mean, it's okay if I'm
living with you and Rita, right?

Look, I think Callie's a great girl...

Honest.

I just don't think...

getting involved with her is a great idea.

How come?

She just has a lot of
stuff to work out. And...

she comes with more than
her fair share of drama.

There's just a lot of other
girls out there, A.J...

I just think you might be better off.

That's all.

Good night.

Sorry I'm late.

She's been fussy all morning.

Here, let me.

So, have you talked to Father Pena yet?

Uh, no, not yet.

Where are your moms?

Um, they're not coming.

So, are you okay?

I heard you and Elena
fighting yesterday, and...

And you want to know if
I'm abusing my pain killers.

I flushed them, the whole bottle.

I've been trying to live with the pain,

but I finally realized I can't.

So, I got a refill.

Why didn't you tell your mom that?

Because my parents only
see me as an addict.

If they had the slightest
idea that I was worried

about relapsing,

they'd be all over me.

So, you're cool?

I promise.

I...

I'm sorry this has caused so much trouble,

but I want you to know

how much it means to me,

not getting you and Jesus baptized

was just another reminder of the
million ways I was a terrible mother.

Look who's here.

You came.

Of course we came.

And we come bearing gifts.

One of those in there is for you,
and the other is for Isabella,

to commemorate your
godmother-goddaughter bond.

So pretty. Thank you.

Mariana, are we ready?

Um, yes.

Father Pena, these are my moms.

Lovely to meet you.

- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.

Pleasure.

Shall we?

Now, I know you weren't
raised in the church,

but I'm happy to see that your
reunion with your grandparents is...

My birth grandparents.

Oh, uh...

Of course. Um...

I'm happy to see that your reunion
with your birth grandparents

has ignited an interest
in a spiritual connection.

Normally, before we do this,
there's quite a bit of instruction,

but these are obviously
very special circumstances.

So, then I'll bring you up and
introduce you as Mariana Gutierrez...

No, no, no. "Adams Foster."

Right. I'm sorry. I knew that.

I'm just getting everything
wrong today, aren't I?

It's fine.

So, then, at the altar,
you'll repeat after me,

and recite the following oath

before your congregation and God.

"I believe and profess all
that the holy Catholic church

believes, teaches, and proclaims,

to be revealed by God."

Is it a sin

to say the oath and not believe it?

Well, it is a sin to lie,

but what don't you believe?

Well, you met my moms.

They're married. Would
the church accept them?

Of course. We welcome all sinners.

Rita told Mike I got you fired.

And then, he told me

that I'm supposed to stay away from you.

He said what?

And then, I realized that's
why I'm going to Rita's.

I crossed the line.

I kissed the princess, and
now, they want to keep me

as far away from you as they can.

Why would you say that? What did he say?

He said that you had a
lot of stuff to work out

and that I should keep my distance.

What, you think that's about you?

No, he's looking out for you, not me.

When I first got here...

Brandon and I, kind
of, fell for each other.

That's why that guy hates my guts.

We fell in love...

but I needed a family, so we ended it.

I ended it.

That's probably why
Mike said that. He was...

he probably doesn't want you to get hurt.

I'm not worried about getting
my feelings hurt, Callie.

Besides, there's one big
difference between me and Brandon.

I'm never gonna be your brother.

_

Damn it, I'm gonna get a ticket!

What's this?

It's a gift for Bella from my moms.

But...

I have to tell you something.

What? When did this happen?

Just got it. My moms don't know yet.

I hate parallel parking.

What's the hurry? Let's take it for a spin.

Well, I can't drive until I get insurance.

Come on, let's take it
around the block one time.

I'm sure we'll find a better parking spot.

Come on, girl! Let me see your skills.

So, you guys are really okay with this?

It's Mariana's choice, not ours.

Hey, sweetheart, the service is
about to start. What are you doing?

I'm not...

I'm not gonna get baptized.

Well, why not, love?

Because...

I'm not gonna stand up there and
say that I believe in a church

that thinks my moms are
sinners just for being gay.

I mean, am I a sinner because I'm straight?

No.

No, I'm not.

So, you're not gonna
be Isabella's godmother?

It's okay.

I'll just keep looking
out for her like I do.

I don't need a title for that.

Hey! Have you seen Ana?

What? What do you mean?

She said she was going to the restroom,

but I think she left.

I can't find her anywhere.

Good morning, everyone.

Okay. Who's up first?

- We'd like to go first, if that's okay?
- It's all yours.

Could you drive any slower?

I can't afford to get a ticket.

You know you can get a ticket for
driving under the speed limit, right?

No way. Really?

So, you and Brandon...

That's over, right?

Like, you don't have a
thing for him anymore?

Right.

So, you gonna drive this thing
over to Rita's and visit me?

Maybe, if you're nice.

I'm always nice.

No, no, no, no, no. Oh, my God.

We've looked everywhere.

She's not answering her phone either.

I think she's using again.

Is that her?

No. I'm so sorry, I have to take this.

No, she's not using again. I
literally just talked to her about it.

Well, if it isn't her pain
pills, then it's something else.

We've been down this road before with Ana.

Well, we just have to do
this without her, come on.

Do what? Baptize Isabella?

No, you can't!

This is a family matter, Mariana.

You've made it quite clear you
don't want to be a part of ours.

- Sweetheart...
- Ana hates me.

That is not what's happening here.

You're not responsible for any of this.

Okay. Yeah. I will be right there.

What? What is it? What happened?

Callie and A.J. have been arrested...

What?

For stealing a car.

It's a fake.

But it's pink. It's
called a pink slip, right?

We didn't exactly know

what a title looks like.

No, of course you didn't. How
could you? You're teenagers.

I cannot believe you bought a stolen car.

This is why you don't do things like
this without talking to your parents.

Well, we were gonna tell you.

We just wanted to wait to have
enough money for insurance.

Are you really looking
at your phone right now?

Sorry, I just...

it's Adriana. Ana showed up
to the reception. She's okay.

But do you think we're gonna
get any of the money back?

I mean, they took the car.

Super bold piece, man.

I'm so glad everyone loved your idea.

Look, man. Sure...

I was inspired by what you played,

but prepared piano has been around forever.

It's not like you invented it.

That is such bull. You know it.

You never would've thought
of that if it wasn't for me.

Are you buying this?

I'm Switzerland, all right?

Yeah, well, you know what
the Swiss did in World War II?

Nothing. They just stood by and watched.

I mean, is that really
who you wanna be, Jin?

Oh, chill out, Brandon.

Look, there were no war crimes committed.

Everyone went home last night, and made
adjustments based on Chris' critiques.

I was in a position to
nad up and take a chance.

I'm not gonna apologize for that.

Man, that is so weak,
it's actually pathetic.

Look who decided to grow a pair.

It's not my fault you
don't believe in yourself.

Is that why you brought me back? Because
you don't think I'm a real threat?

Well, huge mistake, okay?

You might've gotten away
with stealing my idea,

but we both know that my prepared piece
would've blown yours out of the water.

Okay? And if I ever had a doubt
about the fact that I belong here,

well, it's gone now, okay?

So, prepare for some serious
competition, my friend,

'cause I'm about to own you.

I'll get it.

What do you wanna do for dinner?

Oh, God. I don't know.
Should I run to the store?

I could do it.

Who is it, honey?

Hi, Ana.

I, um...

I think I made a mistake.

I want you to take Isabella.

I know you think that I
left because I was using,

but it's not what happened.

I left because I couldn't...

stand up in front of
all those people and...

Promise to take care of my baby.

I know it's horrible, I do, but I just...

I feel no connection to her.

Look at all these parents,

and they seem so happy.

And that's not the way it is with me.

I just feel...

so empty.

This is the way I felt with you and Jesus.

And I always thought that it was the drugs.

But I guess...

I guess I'm just not meant to be a mother.

I think it...

It sounds like you might be
suffering from postpartum depression.

Oh, is that her latest excuse?

This is a very real thing, Victor.

Women have been known to struggle
with it, sometimes for months,

after having given birth.

- Please!
- Why do you do that?

Why do you always assume the worst of her?

Look, I may not have
been raised in a church,

but my moms have always
taught me to believe in family,

and to believe in people,

and to believe in the best
possible version of people.

And that's what Ana needs right now.

For you to have faith in her.

She needs your love and support.

You don't know what we've
been through with her.

I do.

She stole money from me. She lied to me.

But I still believe in her.

You can't just assume she's using
again, every time she has a bad day.

I guess we have been guilty of that,

but you have to understand...

No excuses. You either
believe in her or you don't.

It's no secret that I've had my
problems with the Catholic church,

but one thing that I think is so beautiful,

that they get really, really right,

is forgiveness.

Absolute forgiveness for
ourselves, for others.

I think we all deserve that.

I hope you know, mija...

we really do want you to succeed.

I just don't want to feel this way anymore.

So, we'll get you some help.

What a day, huh?

Sometimes, I wonder if it's
ever gonna get any easier.

I hate that tree.

What?

I feel horrible saying it, but I hate it.

Every day I come down here and I look
through this window, and I hope...

and I pray that I will just see a tree...

instead of a reminder that I lost my baby.

I know I should've said this in therapy,

but I guess I was afraid.

But after speaking with Ana...

about her postpartum, I think, um...

I think that...

I've been depressed, too...

ever since we lost Frankie.

And I'm not saying that it's...

that it's postpartum. I just...

I'm still not over it.

No, it's not gonna go away,
love. That's not how grief works.

I know you know that.

It's awful, love, and it's...

messy and it sucks,

and it's gonna take as long
as it takes, and you feel it,

and you ride it out, okay?
And I'm gonna be here.

I'm gonna be here every second,

for whatever you need. You hear me?

One day, you're gonna look out that window,

and you're not gonna
feel so sad, I promise.

So, I'm guessing that you've heard about
the whole "stolen car" misunderstanding.

So, please let me get
Callie down here to explain.

Hey, Callie! Can you
come down here, please?

Actually, that's not why I'm here.

I was reviewing Callie's
file for your final home study

to recommend her adoption to the judge,

and I have some concerns
about Callie's foster brother.

Oh, well, A.J. will be moving

- to a new home in a few days.
- Yes.

It's not A.J. I'm worried about.

It's Brandon.

I'm wondering why you felt the need

to take out a restraining
order against your son.

I don't even know how you
got that. That was expunged.

Well, even if it was,

I'm afraid I can't make a
recommendation on her adoption

until I investigate this further.

And while I am,

it's not appropriate for
Callie to be in your care.
