The Burden of Perspective

Amy is as shocked as Lauren is pleased to learn of Michael and Leisha's impending wedding; sensing that Maxine has reservations about their relationship, Jared suggests that they take some time away from each other in order to gain a little perspective; Vincent is attracted to a producer he meets when he's invited to read his short stories on the radio; Amy must decide if an alcoholic mother responsible for the death of her daughter has recovered enough to regain custody of her son and retain custody of her unborn child; Maxine is distressed when the state's attorney declines to file charges in the Roseland case; Bruce unhappily assents when Mia suggests that Rebecca spend more time with her in New York; Amy hears the case of a divorcing couple fighting over frequent flyer miles.

Maxine et Amy font face à des problèmes de coeur : Jared refait surface dans la vie de Maxine tandis qu'Amy a du mal à accepter le fait que son ex-époux se remarie. Au tribunal, un ancien alcoolique tente d'obtenir la garde de son enfant.

Amy er rystet, da Lauren kommer hjem og fortæller, at hun skal være brudepige ved sin fars bryllup med Leesha.
