And if your parents had such a great marriage, why aren’t you close to them? (O.K., the scene cuts short of this jab, but you can tell it’s next on the list.) Sure, it’s a therapist’s job to ask the hard questions, but Dr. Reisman has always foregone gentle needling in favor of twisting the knife.

Turns out, though, that the marriage between Madeline’s mom and dad wasn’t so perfect. Taking some friend time in a car with Celeste, comparing notes from therapy, Madeline confesses that she once caught her dad cheating on her mother and that it instilled in her a deep-rooted fear that marriage isn’t to be trusted. Add this tidbit to the ever-growing list of long-buried secrets now suddenly on the surface.

Worse yet, she has never spoken of this until now, even though its effects have clearly bled into her own relationships. All it took was a little prodding from Dr. Reisman and boom, there it is.

That’s the thing about digging: You never know what you’re going to get. Even when you’re intent on uncovering one secret, you can end up unearthing a whole bunch of other ones you would rather not have found.

Desperate to prove that her son wasn’t the monster the Monterey moguls insist he was, Mary Louise corners Jane outside of work and, as politely as one can, asks her to submit Ziggy to a paternity test. Offended and put off, Jane shuts her down but softens when she sees Mary Louise once again, gazing at Ziggy as if he were one of her own sons.

Jane sits down with Mary Louise and, almost forgetting themselves, they ooh and ahh over pictures of Perry and his brother Raymond, marveling at the likeness they share with Jane’s boy.
