Quiet collapse of a marriage built on excuses.
Poppy's graduation seat stays empty while she calls for a father who never arrives. Hours later, Nora finds Elliot at a mall fastening the shoes of his ex-wife's daughter and lifting her onto his shoulders — the gentle patience he always claimed he lacked. Eleven years of absorbing every school run, sick night, and missed milestone crystallize in that contrast. Nora files for divorce, triggering a ninety-day wait that forces Elliot to finally learn the daily rhythm of fatherhood while she starts rebuilding the identity she set aside.
