Nothing in the last couple of weeks.
Since I told my mom about...
Mel: Say it out loud.
It'll help.
Marcie: About rolanda's suicide attempt.
Mel: How does that feel?
Difficult.
Mel: Why do you think you have trouble
Verbalizing your feelings about this?
Marcie: I feel responsible.
You know, after what happened at the beach,
I-I-I could have said something,
I could have done...
I could have done things differently.
Mel: But you aren't responsible for your aunt's actions, marcie.
We can't control what others do.
When someone engages in suicidal ideations,

Your baby?
So you guys are really doing this, huh?
I never thought I'd see the day
When you and your ex would share a roof again.
Me neither.
But he needs a place here
When he's not travelling with his acts
And it's better for both of us financially.
And the kids know that mom and dad aren't-
Yes, yes, yes!

Okay. All right.

Immigration issue.

Basil's gone.
We were supposed to meet yesterday but he...
He never showed.
I-I can't reach him.
He's just gone.

Trudy: Basil is desperate to leave his job at goldenview fields,
But if he does he'll get sent back to jamaica
So we've been looking at different ways
To get him canadian residency.
Marcie: Goldenview?
Heard that name.
Isn't that the frozen veggie brand?
Trudy: It's a megafarm owned by the clawford family.
Didn't one of their sons run for mayor
A few years back?
Brian.
When was the last time that you spoke to basil?
Two days ago.
He was supposed to meet me yesterday morning,
But he never showed.
No calls, no texts, just nothing.
Has he ever done anything like this before,
Just stop responding?
No, never.
Alarm bells were going off for me
So I tried calling goldenview where he works,
But ned wouldn't even-
Who is ned? -The foreman.
He completely brushed me off.
Marcie: Alarm bells?
Why was that?
Um...
Hey, if you want us to help you,
You have to tell us everything.
Basil's 18-year-old brother desmond
Came to work for goldenview
For the first time this year.
Basil had done it four years running
And convinced him it was gonna be a great way to make money.
But about a month ago,
Desmond died on the job.
What happened?
Ned had desmond driving a tractor,
Which he wasn't properly trained to do,
Through the fields
And the tractor overturned into a ditch.
Basil didn't even get to say goodbye to him.
I'm sorry, that sounds like a,
Sounds like a terrible accident.
Trudy: It wasn't an accident.
That child had no business driving that piece of equipment.
The kid didn't even have a driver's licence.
You know they waited an hour to call an ambulance?
Ellery: You're saying they let the kid die?
Marcie: And I'm guessing
Basil was asking way too many questions.
Trudy: Basil was furious.
His little brother's death
Was completely preventable.
He threatened to report goldenview
To the migrant workers' alliance.
Things are bad enough for migrant workers.
Work shouldn't be a death sentence.
Well, it sounds like he may have
A wrongful death claim.
Did he go to the police?
A migrant worker going to the police?
Please.
Let's find basil.
We'll start at the last place
We know he was for sure.
Goldenview fields.
Thank you.
Well, here we have my desk.
Oh, receptionist.
Ooh. -And last but not least...

Avery, now that is impressive.
What can I say?
Have a seat.
So I spoke to ona.
Okay.
She said the hold up with processing
The contact requests is normal.
It's to give the birth parents time to file a veto
If they don't wish to be contacted.
I keep thinking this wasn't the right call.
I mean, I had great parents,
A great childhood.
Seeking out birth parents
Can bring up a lot of complicated emotions.
It's just,
It's made me feel so isolated, you know?
Have you spoken to marcie about it?
Yeah, marcie's...
She's got her own stuff
Since the shooting.
Yeah.
Iris, I'm-I'm sorry.
I wasn't even thinking, I-
That's okay.
Things with cliff and I were new,
But I keep dwelling on what could have been,
Which kind of makes things worse.
Yeah, I get it.
He was a good man.
Yeah, he was.

Thanks.

You sure, mr. Diggs?
You got in the way of a fist from me.
Least I can do is get lunch.
Thanks.
Hey, can you give me a sec?
I just want to check in with ava about tonight's show.
Of course, do your thing.
Howard: Hi.
Alright?
You're gonna do that duet from,
The one that we talked about, right?
Yeah. Okay 'cause that's my favourite.

Howard: So how is my favourite chanteuse?
Ava: Right as rain, baby.
Howard: Yeah? [laughs]
So I'm just thinking...
Everything okay?
Don't disrespect my daughter.
That-that isn't...
That's not anything.
Oh I know exactly what it is
Because I've been in your position and-
Y'all ready?
Sure thing.
Thanks again, mr. Diggs.

Avery: How'd it go?
Marcie: It was good. Needed.
Avery: Well did he apologize?
It wasn't the "thrilla on agricola".
I mean, it was...
It was about rolanda.
Oh? Okay.
There are things about my aunt that were
Unclear until now.
About her mental health.
She was struggling with depression
And, um, there had been other suicide attempts.
Just before I brought her into m&m,
Just before she met you,
She, um...
She actually tried to kill herself.
And I didn't tell anyone.
I just thought...
I thought it'd been the only time but...
[marcie sighs]
Marcie: Just knowing all of this...
It's freeing.
Marcie, I always had a different impression of her death.
The way it played out.
And that's partially me.
I was angry.
I needed someone to blame.
But none of us are responsible for her death.
Yeah.
Yeah, well I'm happy for you.
I'm happy you figured this out.
Yeah.

Deja vu.
I figured you'd be in eskasoni.
Forgot to give you something.
Open it.
Now the cardstock's linen,
Which I've been told is important.
I wasn't as supportive as I could have been.
I just, I-I wanted you to feel like this was your firm, too.
I do.
That's why I want to do the legal clinic here
At mda with you.
Are you sure?
Doug: Yeah, I'm sure.
Anyway, I got a stack of files on my desk
The size of a large toddler so.
Marcie: Doug?
Thank you.

Hey, it's me.
Ellery's on the line too.
What do you got?
I think I found basil's phone case.
Jamaican flag, corinthians quote?
No phone though.
Yeah, someone probably stole it.
Iris: I put a scare into the guy at the charter house.
So if anyone has it, I'm sure they'll turn it in.
Not likely. They would get rid of it.
Iris: Great. So back to zero?
Marcie: No, just the fact that the case was there
Proves that he was on that boat.
And then disappeared some time after?
There is more here than meets the eye.
Oh no, guys.
Marcie: What's up?
I think I found him.
[ominous music]
What happened?
Did you find him?
The authorities found a body
That washed up on the coastline of pei.
They confirmed the identity.
It's basil.
[sobs] no, it's not, no.
No, I don't, I don't believe it.
Marcie: They suspect that he fell off the boat,
That they were ferrying migrant workers to newfoundland.
No, no, it's not him.
I'm so sorry, baby.

I promise you
We are going to find out what happened to him.
We are gonna find out exactly what happened to him.
