Plot

Sam Dawson has a mental disability that leaves him with the cognitive capabilities of a seven-year old, but Sam is desperate to earn the custody of his daughter — and he has a compelling argument. Lucy's mother is homeless and has no interest in raising any child. His current social worker is only allowing him four hours of supervised visits a week, so Sam is encouraged to seek the help of a lawyer. Rita has a reputation for being cold-hearted, and she's hoping that taking Sam's case pro bono could change that. But Sam and his daughter might have something to teach her.
