Colin, a self-proclaimed therapy enthusiast and proud child of hippies, arrives for the first of four court-mandated sessions, but his evasiveness makes a recommendation regarding his recent release from prison difficult for Brooke.

Colin chronicles the events that took him from "gold stars all around" to receiving serious demerits in prison. After connecting his troubling behavior to a feeling of profound powerlessness, Brooke challenges Colin to accept responsibility for his actions.

Brooke helps Colin realize how his hyper-focus on the opinions of others has long curtailed the development of his authentic self. After testing Brooke's boundaries, Colin makes an unusual request for their final session.

In their fourth and final court-ordered session together, Brooke mines the extent of Colin's evasiveness – and struggles to form a comprehensive picture of her patient.

On the heels of receiving Brooke's recommendation, Colin makes a surprise visit—prompting a collision of his therapist's personal and professional lives.

In new territory, Brooke and Colin confront the vast work ahead.​
