Holden bursts in and tells Jack that Lily is in danger and he needs his help to rescue her from Damian. Holden explains to Jack that Damian has been lying all along and making Meg look crazy so that she wouldn’t tell anyone that he lied to Lily and knew that he was alive when he was messing all those months. Holden tells Jack that Daman falsified DNA results and had Meg committed so that the truth would never come out. Holden tells Jack that Molly spoke to former officer Grady who used to work for the Kentucky police and he admitted everything to her. Jack tells Holden that he isn’t officially back on the force and all this information is hearsay and he doesn’t have concrete proof. Jack offers to call the police who have jurisdiction of the Brantford Inn and get them involved and he advises Holden not to go up there and let the police handle the matter.

Janet insists that Dusty is a nice guy and a good boss and he got the tickets so that Liberty, Jack and her could go to see the specialist. Janet makes it clear to Liberty that Dusty is her boss and Jack is her husband Liberty tells Janet that the facts are very clear to her and then gives her a look that allows the audience to know that Liberty knows that Dusty has deep feelings for her mom but the only person that doesn’t know that is Janet.
