Amy quickly discovers that time and distance have given her a quite different outlook on life than she had as a Harvard student, when she, Michael, and their friends formed a closely-knit group of elite law students, calling themselves the Justice League of America.
While Amy and Lauren were living in the safe and familiar environment of the Grey homestead, he was satisfied to leave Amy with primary custody; however, with their living conditions changing so drastically, Michael feels he can now provide a better home for their daughter.
Michael lays Amy's doubts to rest by telling her that their marriage ended because of his shortcomings, not because of any inadequacies on her part -- that once, long ago, he had a perfect marriage and wife, and didn't realize what he had until it was too late.

 PopMatters | Television | Reviews | Judging Amy
Amy must figure out how to juggle a new job where she is treated like a novice by many of her colleagues, a young daughter striving to understand why mommy and daddy don't live together anymore, and a no-nonsense mother who is not always thrilled to have house guests.
We root for Amy Gray to thrive, not only because she is a good and caring woman, but also because we can relate to the internal turmoil of an unprofessional attraction for a co-worker or the grief one feels when a long-term relationship, such as a marriage, has ended.
Amy's healthy relationship with her child is evident in her attempts to foster a loving father-daughter bond between young Lauren and the man with whom she is involved in a bitter divorce.
