Parenthood - Slipping Away

Unfortunately, the title for this week's episode relates to all the Braverman families.  Firstly, while driving, Adam and Kristina receive a call from Haddie who has accidentally activated the speed dial on her phone while having sex with Alex and now they know.  When Kristina confronts Haddie, she at first denies it, but then comes back to her Mum and tells her.  Her Mum tries to be supportive, but her Dad is shattered and does not know how to handle the situation.  As a father myself, I dread that day coming for my daughters.  They have lost their little girl as she is now a young woman.
Meanwhile Crosby continues to renovate the house even though Jasmine has made it clear to Julia that she is never going to forgive Crosby. Is he doing this all for nothing?  As he said, this is his last chance.  What happens when she finally rejects him?
Julia is still dealing with the news that she will never be able to conceive and is trying very hard to connect with her daughter, who, because she is just a child, wants some space from her mother, which crushes Julia.
She also has to contend with Amber who quits her internship at her work while high and consequently embarrasses Julia as she storms out of the building.  She physically pushes her Mother and Brother away when she jumps into a car with her boyfriend.  While high, they run a red light and are T-boned by another vehicle.
Nothing is going right for the Bravermans.  This week's season finale is going to be huge as everything comes to a head.
