He is also a therapist, but one day he gets sick of compassion and empathy as his normal way of treating patients and starts to meddle in their personal lives more. Paul, his boss and mentor who has Parkinson’s disease, tries to warn Jimmy not to do this, but Jimmy doesn’t exactly listen. Jimmy also works to get in a better relationship with his daughter, Alice, a high schooler who loves to play soccer. Jimmy took in one of his patients Sean (Luke Tennie), whose parents asked him to move out because he kept getting in fights and going to jail. Paul and Jimmy’s coworker Gaby (Jessica Williams) got a divorce, and she and Jimmy started sleeping together at the end of Season 1. Jimmy also rekindled his friendship with Brian (Michael Urie) last season ahead of Brian’s wedding to Charlie (Devin Kawaoka).
