As Julia continues to fight for her marriage, Joel might be moving on the next episode of Parenthood.

Sydney Has A Breakdown Over Joel and Julia's Separation?

In the episode preview for Thursday's "Fraud alert," Julia asks Joel what their status is.

"I don't know what I want," Joel replies. "I'm sorry."

Julia Gets Blamed For Her Situation With Joel

The following scene shows Joel on what appears to be a date with his female boss. The two are laughing and drinking wine right before Joel tells her, "This has been amazing." He also affectionately places his hand on hers.

Does this mean Joel has given up on Julia and won't forgive her for kissing Ed?

In the meantime, Sarah gets an unexpected call from an old flame - Mark. Mark, who had his heart broken by Sarah at the end of season 4, asks her to meet up. The former couple enjoys a dinner date and Sarah seems happy. However, there's one problem - she's been spending a lot of time with Hank.

TV Guide previously offered a few details on what to expect from Mark's return and revealed that he will encounter serious competition from Hank.

"Making things even murkier is Hank, who steps up for Sarah in a big way at the end of the season. When Amber finds out that Ryan is injured in San Diego, Hank will volunteer to drive her down there," the website explained. "A seven-hour drive has got to be worth some major brownie points, right?"

-- Parenthood airs on Thursdays at 10 p.m. ET on NBC.
