Ep 4. N-e-- New Jj

In "Speechless" season 3 episode 4, titled "N-e-- New Jj," the DiMeo family adjusts to its newest member, J.J's new aide, Kenneth, who they have nicknamed "New J.J." J.J. is a teenager with cerebral palsy who uses a wheelchair and a communication device to communicate with others. Kenneth is an experienced caregiver who has a lot of knowledge about J.J.'s needs, but he is also very different from J.J.'s previous aide, Carla. This puts the DiMeo family in a difficult position as they try to get used to Kenneth's methods and personality.

Throughout the episode, the DiMeo family members struggle to let go of their attachment to Carla and adjust to Kenneth's ways. Maya especially struggles, as she feels like she has lost a valuable friend in Carla. Meanwhile, Kenneth tries his best to connect with J.J. and make sure his needs are met. However, this is not always easy, as J.J. is not always receptive to change.

As the episode progresses, the DiMeo family members begin to see Kenneth's positive qualities. Dylan is impressed by how quickly he can solve a Rubik's cube, Ray sees how much Kenneth cares for J.J. and Maya begins to see him as a valuable member of their family. Even though they may not have initially been thrilled with Kenneth's arrival, they start to see that he has a lot to offer them.

Overall, "N-e-- New Jj" is an emotional and heartwarming episode that explores the ups and downs of coping with change. It is a great example of how the show tackles sensitive topics with humor and grace, while still delivering an important message.
