This Could Be Us

Judah takes his sons on a morning run. The physical activity helps them manage their energy and get acquainted with the neighborhood. As Judah gives them their medication, he remembers their autism diagnoses at age two and is proud of how far they’ve come since then. Tremaine calls and asks Judah to take Adam to school. Tremaine, who is happily remarried, reflects that she and Judah never shared the kind of love she has with Kent, but she hopes that Judah finds it someday. As he takes Adam to Harrington, Judah is jolted to see Soledad. He considers how hard things must be for her but reminds himself that she’s married.

Edward calls from federal prison. When he says that the FBI can’t prove what he’s done, Soledad is stunned to realize that he really stole the money. He insists that once he gets out, they’ll be set for life. He tells Soledad to call his mom for help, but Soledad reminds him that his mom is racist; she favors Lupe over the other girls because Inez and Lottie look less white. Edward says that Soledad doesn’t work, as he doesn’t consider running the household actual labor.
