Spencer is insecure about Asher moving in with Layla, but he cannot communicate this clearly because he was afraid of repeating the same mistake that cost him his relationship with Kia a year ago. Meanwhile, Olivia feels neglected by her family ahead of her one-year sobriety, while Coop gets the news from her father that her mother may finally be ready to accept her back home, which will resolve the threat of being evicted from her apartment unless she is emancipated.
