Gina loves her big brother, Alan. She took care of him for most of their childhood, and as an adult, she wants to make sure he’s okay no matter what. But she also knows she can't be around to help make that happen. This episode is about being a child of divorce. It's about having one absent parent and another who lives with severe depression. It's about loving a sibling whose genetic disorder causes him to inflict physical harm. And it's about putting your own health above all of it.
