I really believe that, whether he knows it or not, Justina, and Lou have become caught up in something much bigger than just Justina's situation. With all the various circus acts, political groups, hangers-on, etc. this has become a much bigger cause than "just" Justina. I think Lou is being counseled and convinced to not work on ANY plan to get Justina home. Because then the opportunity to push their agenda goes away for all these groups. I really think they've convinced him on this. And I think he likes the attention too.
Unfortunately it is Justina who suffers due to it all. On the upside, at least she will continue to get the psychological and medical care she needs.
Lou might want to clean his glasses and actually read the "plan." It makes it pretty clear that DCF will only support the return of Justina to her parent's custody IF they participate in the plan.
No participation by family = no return of custody.
The transfer to the CT facility isn't in the family's control nor will it be. The Plan is only about reunification with the family in terms of custody.
