The story so far
Everything you need before watchingOn a cold morning jog, Terry rants about his ex offering an antique sewing table they bought together. He wants his house back, not the furniture, and he is sure his old contractor now lives there. The teasing dies when Mike suddenly cannot breathe. Terry fears a heart attack and tries to warm him on the wet ground. Then Mike admits his law practice is failing, and he still has not told Jackie.
