    I really liked this episode. I really like the opening with Amy before her wedding to Micheal and freaking out about getting married. It was great to see what it is like for a juvinale court judge on her first day or week ass they ending up going through in this episode. I liked that they family seemed to be very close. I liked that they all seemed to be happy for Amy getting the job. I like Maxine she seemed to be very caring but she can be a little harsh sometimes. I liked what Amy said to her Daughter when she took her a side.moreless
