  1. Nina had indeed gone overboard.  3 strollers???!  Color coded notes in every room about everything.   Scola was right  to call her on it -  she escalated the argument just as he did.  It’s the reality of life that people argue sometimes. At least they had an intelligent calm conversation about it afterward.  And yes, new parents have make up sex. 
     

    However I will also agree that I have seen nothing that implies Nina isn’t a great mother.  Nor anything that says Scola is not a great father.  Just two tired people trying to manage life.

    Does Covenant Eyes work on phones?

    From her FB message:

    “We have 3 grown children that are married (Timothy will be this year)”

    Timothy is not yet married yet, Jill. Why couldn’t she have said “2 married, one engaged?”

    I don’t know why she thought it was ok to word it that way.  Being  married later this year isn’t the same as being married now.

    Timothy made a coffee bar in his house. Jill and a few children stopped by. Jill asked if he had to go cups for the coffee he was making them.

    . Today’s lesson from Jill.

    So only the grown children ( otherwise known as ADULTS) get smart phones, but then Jill monitors every move they make on it.  Note to Jill- )1 you’d better be the one paying for it then and 2). You do understand you have no legal right to tell your grown children what to do).

  4. Leela has a right to not want kids… but Devon has a right to want them.  This isn’t a ‘what do we want for dinner’ compromise.    Either one or the other has to change their mind to stay together.  Neither should be looked at badly for their choice.  The only things done wrong were 1) not discussing  it much earlier and 3) Leela not being honest about her choice when they did discuss it.

    As for Maggie, I think she won’t be the permanent guardian of the kid and I think this episode showed why she isn’t fit to have a kid - her work is too unpredictable and demanding and she has no one to watch the kid while she’s away.

    I disagree.   FBI agents can and are parents. They also get divorced or widowed and  become single  parents. I didn’t see anyone saying Jess on the FBI most wanted series should have quit his job because he had a kid. And he ended up being killed. 
    Yes Maggie will need reliable 24/7 child care.   But so do Scola and Nina.  She’s off chasing fugitives for days on end. Should they quit their jobs? Or give up their child?

    His mother who died was his adopted mother. He met his birth mother a few seasons ago. I don't think we know how old he was when we was adopted, but if he was 8-10, that would be old enough to say you were raised in foster care and still be close with your adoptive parents.

    They retconned his adoption age when they replaced the actress that played Carol.  The new Carol was shown with him being adopted around 10 or later.  The old Carol had holiday photos and memories of him as a young child. 
     

    Regarding the funeral, TV weddings and funerals often seem to only have the show regulars attending.  It’s a definite writing flaw.   I’ve never forgotten the wedding of McGee and Delilah on NCIS- attended only by his team. Not a single friend or co-worker of hers.

    It was insignificant here. I didn’t have glasses so I stayed indoors. No one at my job even left the building so I figured it was a bust. 

    I was indoors too.  Had our blinds up though annd  although I knew we were only in the 90 some %, I was really disappointed by how much sunshine and light of day there was.   You’d have thought it was a normal day.

  8. I don’t know how to copy part of a FB post over  to here.   Jill posted a long diatribe about how kids shouldn’t blame their parents.  As part of it, she talks about David not  having grown up in a Christian home.  He grew up around swearing, public school, alcohol and his dad committed suicide.  I really wish she’d learn that people in many Christian homes often swear, send their kids to public school and enjoy alcohol in moderation.   And no family is  immune to suicide. 
     

     I’m also wondering if someone in her circle isn’t happy with their parents either.

  9. Both Billie and AJ should have told Trevor that he was not defined by his origins.  That he was still the same person he knew himself to be before he figured out how he was conceived.

  10. Billie should have told Leela that the double board certification woukd be impossible for anyone …if dyslexic or not.  Leela is so bound and determined to prove that she’s not less than, that she ignores the fact that there’s just not enough hours in the day for anyone to be everything to everyone.

    There's very few folks, if any, that I could talk to for 5 hours straight. I can hang with a person or people for 5 hours straight, but not if we are doing nothing but talking and staring at each other.

    I can understand them staying for what was probably the most time allowed. First there’s travel involved.  Second, there is possibly a limit of x separate visit sessions a month.   So it’s best to do one long visit than two shorter visits. 

    There’s probably board games etc on a table along a wall to play.  Probably vending machines for drinks and snacks.  So you can pass some time with that rather than conversation the entire time. 
     

    I’m not going to snark about parents visiting their son.  Even when I don’t like any of them and am truly disgusted by Josh’s crimes. 
     

    I’ve never visited a federal prison, but I doubt that Michelle found it a pleasant experience ( not counting her seeing Josh).   I know state prison visits made me feel like I was a criminal being detained myself

  12. Jill is a product of her environment.   She has a steady diet of news and affirmations that reinforce her persecution belief.   She doesn’t talk to anyone that has a different opinion or belief than her.  Because she’s been told those people are looking to drag her down the path to evil.    Blue haired, pants wearing, independent females etc.  She has no clue that people who think differently than her are just trying to live their lives / just as she is.  She might figure it out if she wasn’t so fearful of having a conversation with them. 

    In addition, she never went to school and learned the basic social and compromising skills that students around others do. She’s stuck in the grade school level of extreme hurt because someone looked at her funny.  The rest of us learned a long time ago that other people’s actions ( and facial expressions) often have nothing to do with us - because they are caught up in their own lives.  And are not paying attention to what color our hair is today. Nor are they usually trying to hurt us even when they make odd comments

  13. This episode was hard for my spouse to watch.  We are in our sixties and I have been taking care of my elderly parents for several years. Even with them in assisted living, there’s a lot for me to do.  I saw myself.  My spouse saw his own future  in the husband -not the Parkinson’s, but the reliance on his wife due to his ailments. He saw what my future as a full time caregiver would be.  He didn’t like it.

  14. For such a big hospital, they seem to have very few doctors and surgeons.  Yet these same doctors and surgeons have all day to hang out in patient rooms… and perform CT scans.  There’s never a radiologist or technician in the room- but there’s always 5 doctors there.

    So Nic and Conrad took the day off and still ended up back at the hospital working when they had to bring in that guy they were checking on. Are there really people that committed to their jobs that they would do that? Maybe I'm cold, but when I take the day off, I take the day off. Did Nic and Conrad then get their PTO credited back to them or did they get paid? LOL

    Once he was diagnosed, there was no reason for Conrad or Nic to be there.  The doctors at Chastain seem to have all day to spend with a patient. In real life, an admitted patient is lucky to see their doctor for 5 minutes a day. ER doctors spend a little more, but not much more.

    Perhaps it was for talking heads for the season they already filmed. Presumably, if it picks up where the left off, that would include the birth of her boys.

    I agree this is the most likely filming. She mentioned ‘on set’.   That’s probably what they call the TH location.   I doubt she refer to any other location as ‘on set’.

  17. AJ and Mina were on the same page until Cain raised the racism issue. I felt Cain was just being manipulative and AJ fell for it. Cain will say anything to get his way, and he lies all the time.
