Jack doesn't actually get drunk drunk but he gets tipsy enough that he's not comfortable going around Carter and the kids until his head's more clear. It gets that way later on after switching beer for water and it's late and cold by the time he loads himself into a cab and heads back to her place. The ghostly cab driver is weird but, hey, the fare is free, and when he turns up at her building, a ghostly doorman is more than happy to let him in.
He pauses at her door for a moment, hand hovering over the wood, and wonders if he ought to knock. The baby and William are probably sleeping and he doesn't want to wake them up if he can help it. Still, he has no other place to go and if he does wake them, he really hopes Carter understands just the bind he's in.
He finally does knock, a few short raps against the door, and waits because he knows Carter has good ears and banging down the door's only going to wake up the kids and make this more of a mess than it already probably is gonna end up being.
Oh boy.
