And no matter how closely Patrick attempts to get close to him, Isaac manages to shut him down.

But while things start well and there's some male bonding, Isaac loses his coolness in the air hockey game.

When Sheree figures out, she's crazy, and she's trying to get Isaac to let Patrick into his life. In the meantime, Denise learns that it was the anniversary of the death of the man Isaac believed his dad was, and she agrees that his reaction was understandable
