Family - Traci Nash - 2.06

Seeing Leo interact with Jerry at the station, and how Jerry loved her son unconditionally, made her feel complete. He acted like a father to her son. She didn't know why she ever pushed him away. He was giving her the comfort and stability that she desperately craved. He was there for Leo as if Leo was his own child, not just 'the son of my girlfriend'. But most importantly, he was giving her a family, something that she had dreamed about from the time that she was eight, something that she thought she'd never gain after her teenage pregnancy.
