Then he gets a call he must fly home where his father 'Opti' is dying; they reminisce, especially about their camping and fishing in the wild, say they'll do it again with his own kids, but know gramps will never get out again. When his dad dies, good son Jimmy keeps grieving over a year, till Meredith tells their therapist the marriage is over, they no longer make each-other happy.
