Bailey finally is ready to stop and accepts it front of his siblings. Sarah accompanies to his first meeting of AA and supports him, spending time with him and in the dorm (Callie is gone this episode), to remember him always that he almost got her killed. She can avoid her parents saying she is seeing Julia, but sure she has better alibies (her parents should forbid her get out of the house if not). The problems for Bailey reappears when he sees Walter Alcott in the meetings (who is having his 3rd sober anniversary, since Nicolas and Diana died march 22), who says that he still regrets all the damage he caused after learning Bailey's alcoholism and that God take care of everyone, the damaged and the guilty people of the damage. In a family dinner, with all his siblings and Sarah, Bailey says he wants to quit, he can't believe in God after his parents died, but Sarah pleads her to keep going because he promised her. He ends up making time, and going to the market with her, always avoiding the temptation of drinking. This story was the best of the episode, very good, it was a coincidence about Walter Alcott's presence but was good to remind Bailey that he wasn't different than him (driving drunk). He said to Charlie that he was "Walter Alcott", that he didn't got someone killed just for luck.
Griffin gets paid (100.000) after suing the boat, thanks to the lawyer he hired (despite Julia's objection). He helps his dad with cash, but when comes to investing, seems that the Major pretends to want him just for the money, to have a security company, directed only by him. Julia supports him all the way, and Griffin says he will be a different father, much better than his. The last scene was great, he telling a story about his trips in boat, of how a fellow thought Griffin's dad was dead because he never mentioned him. In this story, Griffin wanted to spend time with his dad after the lost time of yelling and mistreat, but seems that the Major didn't change. Old wounds didn't heal (Jill's death). This was another good story, showing the kind of father some people have and how wished that would be.
As for Charlie's story, Grace offers him a job but then retreats when she announces running for Office. Claudia is obviously upset when she learns that Grace will use the house for the campaign, but Charlie doesn't stop her. Once again he's not himself. Another wasted episode for him, acting like an immature guy and not as a Father.
