Apollo tries to explain prison to his kids
This episode, Phaedra finally learns of Apollo’s date to report to prison and she explains to her mother that she’s stressed out about having no choice but to explain to their sons about their father’s imminent departure from their lives. However, Apollo takes matters into his own hands and when he takes Ayden and Dylan out for ice cream, he explains to Ayden that, just like when they get in trouble and have to go to time out, when he gets in trouble he has to go away for his punishment as well. When Apollo asks Dylan what he’d do if his dad had to go away, Dylan gives a heartwarming answer and says he’d go visit his father and stay with him forever, which gives Apollo a surprising and welcomed sense of joy.
