The scene opens with Lightman coming home. He finds Emily’s friend Amanda on the couch. He asks why Amanda looks sad. Emily and Lightman go to the kitchen and he starts to throw things at Emily until she tells what is going on. Amanada tells that she is going home and Lightman tells her to tell him what is going on. Amanda’s dad, Wayne, has been in a mental hospital for five years and doesn’t feel that they are giving him any treatment for the money they have paid. Lightman agrees to help Amanda in her cause.
Lightman and Foster talk and Lightman wonders if Wayne is really mentally ill or not. Loker has the newspaper article up in the office where it shows that Wayne threatened to jump off a bridge with his daughter Amanda. Grandon comes in and Lightman welcomes him. Foster asks Grandon why Wayne’s condition has not improved at all and Grandon doesn’t have the right answers. Meanwhile, Loker and Torres visit Wayne’s sister, Gina, at the ranch. She is blocking the question to whether or not Amanda is there and tells that Amanda lives with her because of the fact that her mother died in childbirth. Lightman and Foster go to the hospital to talk to Wayne. Grandon tells that he doesn’t speak to people he doesn’t trust. To gain Wayne’s trust, Lightman tells Grandon to leave and uses lipstick to block out the camera. Lightman sees that the juice that is in Wayne’s room hasn’t been drunk and Lightman asks why he didn’t drink it. Lightman takes a cupful and drinks it. Foster finds some letters and Wayne takes them. Lightman finds that Wayne has secretly been trying to take off the screen on his window to make an escape. Lightman tells that he will help him if he stays.
