Paul commutes down from New York to Maryland via Amtrak to see his kids for the weekend and pays a visit to Gina to suss out what she might say in a deposition for the malpractice suit against Paul. She assures him she doesn't see him as responsible for Alex's death but admits he didn't talk about him that much in their supervision until after he'd died.

Oliver and Paul talk while Bess and Luke wait to be invited in. Oliver says he doesn't want to talk about school because all of his teachers hate him because he falls asleep all of the time. He insists his classes are boring, including Humanities where they are reading 'Lord of the Flies.' Oliver insists you don't need to crash on an island for kids to be mean.

Gina explores Paul’s resentment over having to take care of his ailing father.

Mia bursts into the Monday morning session, excitedly remembering all the lurid details of her weekend's wild debauchery. But Paul wants to concern themselves over her quite Sunday brunch with her father.

As Bess readies for a well-needed vacation, she gushes over how well Oliver has done, but Paul is skeptical that her son could not have changed that quickly.

Paul fixates on a comment April uttered about a close friend of his to explore her independent streak.

When April reveals something about one of her closest friends, Paul questions her ability to rely on other people.

Ignoring Paul's and Oliver's objections, Luke and Bess come up with a plan that will alter their family structure and dynamics.

Mia's plan doesn't work to trap Paul so she has to re-evaluate everything.

Paul attempts to put Oliver's mind at ease, and his parents have had a hard week which they can now put behind them.
