He sounds so sure of it that April can't help but believe him. She may not be entirely convinced Robert can help her, not because he isn't capable but because she doesn't want to owe him anything, but there are others. Coop sounds determined and she knows Les isn't going to just stand by and let something like this happen to her. It's perhaps a little petty, but she feels good about that, knowing Les will help her regardless of her strained relationship with his girlfriend.

And knowing Coop will help, too, means a lot. She looks over at him and shrugs deeply. "With my father, you never really know what he might be willing to do," she says. "He claims he cares and wants to help, but I can't help but think if that were true, I wouldn't have spent my childhood in foster care. I don't trust his help. It feels like it comes with strings attached."

Maybe she's wrong, maybe these are just her issues at play, the lack of trust she has for most people coming back to bite her. But if there's anyone to blame for that, she thinks it might well be Robert. April doesn't like to think of her life like that, as something broken that can be blamed on the bad behaviour of her parents, but there are times when it feels fitting.
