Tom now hopes to establish again a middle-class lifestyle with the newest book he's writing, which is loosely based on his real-life family. This worries Tom as he doesn't know how they'll react once they realize the book is about them. Meanwhile, Sarah is just trying to make ends meet and struggles the most with money.
