Riggs didn't have anything to lose. Life was passing him by one day at a time since the accident that nearly took it. He prayed every night that he wouldn't wake up, but until then he needed something to keep busy.

All she needed was some good help, cheap help at that, because she was finding out it was too hard to do alone.
