Episode Summary

After years of being away, Riot returns home to share his newfound success with his parents. But his father, who's long disapproved of his musical talents and never forgiven him for leaving the army, kicks him out after starting a bitter fight. Things get so bad that Riot's mother, who has spent years mediating between the two, experiences a nervous collapse and winds up in the hospital. It's up to Jem to help Riot repair the damage between him and his father so that his mother can recover.
