00:03We find Val in a bit of a rough spot.
00:06I'm the public defender assigned to your case.
00:08There's been a huge misunderstanding.
00:10She's been trying to get her life together.
00:12Thank you for coming in. We'll get in touch.
00:14Trying to care for her son.
00:15Did you get the job?
00:16Let's get you to your dad's, okay?
00:17And she's trying to navigate a very complicated relationship with her ex-husband.

00:29It deals with issues of domestic violence and two women who are at odds with each other.
00:35There's a rivalrous relationship with her ex-husband's new wife.
00:39I think he's got everything.

00:53I think that any women who find themselves having been married to the same person and a mixed family.
01:00I don't know.
01:01It's always complicated.
01:02Miss Pierce, I'm Detective Ross.

01:11What things seem on the surface are rarely what they are.
