Part 3: “Wednesday”

Part 3, Chapter 7 Summary: “Campbell”

When Campbell arrives at the office, he finds Anna cleaning his doorknobs as he had jokingly told her to do to pay his fees. Sara calls to inform Campbell that Anna has chosen to drop the petition, but when questioned, Anna denies it.

Campbell goes to the courthouse for a meeting with Sara and Judge DeSalvo. Campbell tells yet another bizarre reason why he has a service dog to the security guard downstairs. Upstairs, he runs into the Fitzgeralds. He is not pleased to learn Sara is a lawyer and will be handling the case herself. In Judge DeSalvo’s chambers, Campbell reveals that Anna told him that she wants to continue with the case. Judge DeSalvo insists on speaking to Anna directly. Campbell approaches Anna in the hallway to prepare her, but is again disheartened when she responds to her mother over him.

Part 3, Chapter 8 Summary: “Anna”

Judge DeSalvo explains the process of the petition to Anna, telling her that there will be a trial unless her parents agree to medical emancipation. He asks her if she told her mother that she was going to drop the case, and she says she did; he decides he needs to assign a guardian ad litem.
