Hank has believed that all Josey's problems are of her own doing, ever since she, unmarried, had Sammy while she was still in high school.

She does so with the help of Glory and her husband Kyle's friend, Bill White, an ex-New York lawyer who is facing his own emotional demons. They being able to get any corroboration is difficult as all Josey's male coworkers are standing together, and all the women fear retribution by the company and/or their male coworkers after the fact.
