Episode Summary

Maggie’s son Jamie is shocked to discover that his father is alive and has been in prison for years – and that Maggie lied to him. Steve talks to Maggie and tries to convince her that he has changed but she is not interested. Steve tells Maggie that Joanne started contact with him after Maggie’s Dad Stan let it slip that he was still alive. He says it’s now up to the children not her, if he’s in their lives. Maggie confronts Bruno, demanding to know why he interfered and called the prison. But when Joanne awakes and asks Steve to stay, Jamie sees what he thinks is a family reunion and storms off. He tells Maggie he is leaving home.
