"Nobody knows how to be a dad. And sometimes we're really shit at it."
It's a collective 'we' incorporating Alex and Apollo both - Apollo knows he wasn't always the best father to Jenny. He did what he could but day by day he couldn't help but despair at how little he seemed to be able to do right.
"But you tried, right? That's better than nothing."
So sue him, but Apollo is forever the optimist. And if Alex thinks that maybe, just maybe, a future version of himself might have reached out to his son then perhaps it would all be okay.
"And if Bobbie said you reached out to him... then maybe there's still time to have another try."
