Bloody Brigadoon Pub. Ricky enters with a grungy-looking guy and sees Peter and Caitlin still making out in the back. He says that he needs to talk to Peter right now. Peter comes forward and Caitlin stays in the back, and the grungy guy tells Peter about Elle and how she's looking for him. The grungy guy leaves and Ricky tells Peter that he'll help him out of this situation. But Peter thinks it's his problem. Ricky begs to differ, seeing as how Peter licking the roof of his sister's mouth makes Peter's problems Ricky's problems. Ricky tells Peter that Caitlin has a flat up the hill, and that Peter should go there until the coast clears. Peter doesn't want to, but Ricky convinces him that, for his sister's sake, he has to get out of sight and take Caitlin with him.
New Orleans. Monica's out by the restaurant's dumpsters, contemplating her superpowers. Her co-worker comes out and asks her what the hell is going on with the whole flying-karate-kick thing. Monica says that she's not sure what happened and nothing makes any sense and she thinks she learned how to do the kicking thing from television. She tries to explain to her friend that her body seems to be doing things before she even knows it. She comes close to revealing her superpowers, but falls back on saying that she's not amounting to much, seeing as she was supposed to be the first person from her family to go to college and now look at her -- she's working at a burger joint and getting nowhere fast. She finally just decides to leave and go home to get some rest.
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.
