Rock Bottom
Kate Reed's day had gone from good to bad, to worse in a matter of minutes. She had to mediate brothers, before it got to court and she only had one day. Normally for Kate, this wasn't a big deal. She could handle just about anything.
Then a man came out of nowhere saying she had to help him and solve a family dispute, a Grandmother wanting to take her niece back to their home country, when her dad wanted her to stay in the States. Kate was already behind on the brother's case, but she figured why not?
She had also later that day, told Justin that she was pregnant, and he was in shock, after getting his award so she had time to slip out, thinking that he didn't want to hear it and that she wasn't ready to tell him but he always pushed it out of her.
At the end of day, after she had help with the brother's case from Leo, and they found a solution with the family, a call from the doctor's office, telling her that she wasn't pregnant, Lauren finally found her and told her that David Smith had been looking for her, she had gone into Lauren's office to discuss about keeping secrets from Lauren, Lauren had decided to fire her.
When she made it to her office, Leo tried to warn her that Justin was waiting for her and David Smith had also left her a note explaining everything. She went inside to talk to Justin and tell him that the pregnancy was a fake and that she was sorry. Justin however, had enough with her and decided to be open about it, leaving her to cry in her old office.
So Kate left and went back to her boat, to cry her eyes out and eat ice cream. That's what she normally does when she hits rock bottom. It's what she did when her father died, and after having the worst day in her life, she decided that she had hit rock bottom once again.
