Gabriela (Stephanie Arcila) notices that Bode has been different since Rafael died. She checks in with him, and despite his claim that he plans to “move forward,” he seems to be struggling with letting go of the memories.
“Pick your poison Bode, otherwise this job will eat you alive,” his uncle offers some advice as the struggles continue. Meanwhile, Bode is given some painkillers, which might be meant for physical pain, but he might use them to hide his emotional pain. Given how addictive painkillers can be, is this the beginning of retrogression for Bode?
“My Team” introduces new and old love interests for Vince and Jake (Jordan Calloway). Renee was Vince’s high school sweetheart, who is now a lawyer. She’s well-traveled and described as “a force to be reckoned with.” While Vince and Sharon have remained stable, what does that mean for their relationship with Renee showing up? Meanwhile, Jake meets another lawyer, this time a younger one with whom he has no history. Violet (Nesta Cooper) is “an ambitious, newly minted lawyer with big dreams determined to work her way out from under a mountain of student loan debt.” Recently divorced, she’s open to loving again, and no one has so much love to give more than Jake. Will this be the beginning of a major love story?
