Those aren’t toys, they’re Aunt Gemma’s collectibles.

You’re not supposed to play with them.

That’s okay.

We can play with them.

We can totally play with it.

Do you wanna play with it?

You wanna play? Yeah.

There’s a lever you have to pull on the bottom.

Maybe, Gemma.

For the sake of the excercise

we might let Katie lead.

Yeah, I’m just explaining how it works.

Well it’s a toy, I’m sure it’s not that complicated.

That’s great, Katie.

Do you wanna roll it to Aunt Gemma?

It’s just that this is not what

it was designed to do.

It does other things.

But yeah, totally let’s just roll it

on the ground like a tennis ball.

Let’s do that instead.

We’ll do a few more sessions with Katie initially,

but that can happen at your office or school.

Oh yeah, I haven’t had time to look into

that yet.

Nicole was home schooling her but yeah it’s on my list.

Sorry, can I just ask,

how close were you and your sister?

I don’t know.

But you wanted this right?

To take custody.

Yeah, of course.

Okay, because the fathers parents have said

they’re willing to take her if you feel like it’s too much.

Wait, did they contact you?

It’s no big deal, Gemma.

They’re just trying to be supportive.

If Nicole wanted Katie to go to

Jacksonville, she would’ve said so.

But even so, I need to make my own recommendations

to the court, whether or not this is a safe space so...

You’re gonna need to make one or two adjustments

in order for this to work.

Okay.

Listen Katie, I have this project at work.

That’s kinda overdue.

And with all the time I had to take off last week.

I’m not really sure i’m

gonna get it done.

Anyway, it’s not gonna take longer

than a couple hours but,

if you could just hold the fort down by yourself for a little while,

that would help me so much.

You can use my iPad, if you want.

You can FaceTime a friend

or play a game or something.

What about screen time?

Hm?

How long before I have to turn it off.

Oh, I don’t care as long as you want.

I mean. I’m not gonna be gone that long. I’ll just

be down the hall.

And when I’m done, we can

go out somewhere.

We can go to a playground or,

get something to eat.

Okay?

Katie, I’m sorry.

Come here.

I’m not off to a very good start here, am I?

What is this? Did you draw a picture?

Oh my god, this is amazing.

I’m still working on it.

Tell me.

It was actually supposed to be a different

animal for each head.

Like, this one was supposed to be a tiger.

This one was supposed to be a grizzly bear.

But I can never seem to get the fur right.

It’s hard, I can relate.

I’ve actually been working with

some furry creatures myself.

Do you wanna see?

Yeah?

So, I’m working on a version of the Purrpetual Pet

that’s cheaper.
