Leah's reaction imply otherwise, but all she can do is let Libby know that her dad is only human, and she at least appreciates that he gave her a daughter.

Later, after Libby is heartbroken by her dad turning down a chance at quality time together, Leah comforts her , and remarks on how Matias is too blind to realize that for all his efforts at "chasing miracles", he's missing out on the one miracle he already had, his daughter.

* GoodParents: Leah, who despite not wanting to go on a road trip to visit Matias and cross two states, decides to do it for Libby so she can meet and know her dad. For the better part of the road trip, she's careful not to bad mouth Matias, understanding her daughter needs to come to her own conclusions about her father. When Matias crushes Libby's heart, she immediately consoles her.
