Philly. Matt and Nathan approach the door Molly saw in her dream. Nate asks what he's going to do; Matt isn't sure. Nathan says, "He's traumatized your girl. He's got my mother terrified. You better GET sure. Get yer gun out." Hee. Is that a euphemism? Matt looks about as white as a plate of mashed potatoes. Nate claps him on the shoulder and asks if he's okay. Matt says that he hasn't seen or talked to his father since he left when Matt was thirteen. "I've spent half my life wondering what I would say to this guy if I got the chance and now I can't even knock on the door," he says. Before Matt can change his mind and run away like the girl that he is, Nathan rather awesomely just reaches out and raps on the door. Matt looks at him like, "Buh?" Nate just goes, "You're welcome." Hee. "Parkman, this is not a family reunion. He is not your dad today. He is a suspect. Get your gun out." HA HA HA. Awesome.
Matt grabs his gun and his nuts and hollers, "Police! Open up!" which I'm sure goes a long way to announcing his presence to the father figure nearby. They bust through the door, only to come face-to-face with a grizzled old guy who vaguely resembles the man in the photo. Oh, and he has a shotgun. He's about to shoot them when Nathan mutters Matt's last name under his breath and Papa Parkman realizes that Matt's his son. He asks what they're doing there, but he won't put down the gun. Matt wants to know what the hell he's doing walking around in Molly's dreams, and Papa Parkman says he doesn't know who that is. Matt and Nathan yammer questions at him about Kaito's death and Angela's attack and while Papa Parkman is distracted, Matt moves in and takes the gun and slams his father up against a wall and cuffs him. Nathan grabs the fallen shotgun and loads it roughly and Matt looks around all, "Uh, homie?" And Nathan just dryly looks up and goes, "I'm good." You certainly are. Hee.
Papa Parkman claims that they've got it all wrong, he was waving the gun around to protect himself. He points them to a picture on the desk, and sure enough, it's a picture of him with the big "S" lipsticked across his ugly mug. Matt demands to know what his father did to Molly, and that he undo whatever it is immediately. Papa Parkman says he's just protecting himself, and when Nathan asks from whom, Papa Parkman levels a look at him and asks, "Which one of her kids are you?" He guesses that Nathan is the politician. Nathan rears his head back and says that his mother's in jail for Kaito's murder and she and Kaito both had the "S" over their faces, just like Papa Parkman does, and they're all taken from the same photo and they're all connected.
