Micah reflects on all his past relationships: after Lorna was Zara, who was a dancer and left him for a fellow dancer, then Adele, who left Micah to go work in conservation, and then Cass. They broke up because Micah saw her kiss another guy. While on the call, Micah recalls how Lorna was religious and saving herself for marriage. When Micah receives a client phone call, he tells Brink he must go and leads the kid out. Micah knows this isn’t true because the timeline doesn’t add up, and he never had sex with Lorna (though he does not tell Brink the latter). After chatting for a bit, Brink indicates that he believes Micah is his father. Brink is mysterious about his intentions and tells Micah that he’s taking the day off from college. Micah invites the kid, Brink, inside for coffee.
Micah greets the boy, who stops Micah and introduces himself as the son of Micah’s ex-girlfriend from college, Lorna. When Micah gets back, a well-dressed 18-year-old boy is waiting on his stoop. Micah makes this same mistake every morning. Without his glasses, he mistakes a fire hydrant for a redhead child. He ponders this dream while on his morning run the next day. Micah dreams one night of finding a baby in a supermarket aisle.
