Now Harvey's gone from suggesting I swipe a toothbrush to full cloak and dagger to collect DNA on the sly. And he'll make it easy for me.

This is something Harvey also told Sarah. Gather the samples surreptitiously so you don't wreck your life.

Another path. The way Harvey talks, it sounds like I'm completely in control here. His lab will give me certainty, and with that, I can choose what my life will look like. I think about all the people we've spoken to who made choices based on Acumetrix results. People who ended relationships or broke up families, all because of a single prenatal paternity test. But here's the thing.

I'm here posing as a client looking for a paternity test on a child and not as a pregnant woman. That's because we've just learned that Acumetrix no longer offers the prenatal tests. But Jorge and I don't know why. So I make the segue. Could I have done this?

Cross-contamination, the go-to reason Acumetrix uses to explain why its prenatal test had a pattern of naming the wrong dads.
