Matthew's Dilemma (S01E05)
S01E05
John doesn’t understand why his son Matthew keeps pulling away. Every time he tries to make plans, Matthew makes an excuse. The silence between them grows heavier, and John starts wondering where things went wrong. He remembers the days when Matthew couldn’t wait to be around him. Now, he feels like a stranger in his own son’s life. Determined to bridge the gap, John decides it’s time to ask the hard questions—even if the answers might hurt.
