Finally, Roland (played by Sterling K. Brown) and Joan (played by Wendy Davis) are dealing with their own challenges.

He feels like she has been keeping secrets from him, and is worried that she may be in worse shape than he realized.

As the episode progresses, each of the women faces their own unique challenges and struggles. They lean on each other for support, and eventually come to realize that they are stronger together than they are alone.
