Lou meets Will Traynor, who is angry that his mother has hired yet another person he does not want caring for him. She chooses to go ahead with the interview because of the pay and benefits offered by Camilla Traynor, who happens to be intimidating in her own right. Finally, she is left with a choice between a six month caretaking position for an elderly quadriplegic man or no job at all.
