• Kristina bursts in on Leo in his temporary office, to tell him what she knows and to ask if he has dug anything more about her mother. He thanks her and assures her that he is working on it; as he leaves for the Casino to confer with Jane, he deletes an e-mail relating to Kristina's geneaology from his laptop.
• Deep Ones manhandle Leo into Jane's presence but a quick manifestation of Herod cows them. Jane pressures Leo to help bring the followers of Hydra under the leadership of herself & Dagon, using adoption paperwork about himself and Jessica as leverage, but Leo refuses to bend to her.
• Jane visits Kristina in the cavern and tries the same powerplay through her, but all Kristina is interested in is bringing the families back together, not power brokering.

Jessica then arrives after being invited by Elspeth behind Leo's back: she is still angry with Leo who can't think why. He proposes again but his phone rings to tell him what Jane has done; he finally relaises what it is that is stopping Jessica from saying yes, so he drops hi phone down the waste disposal and promises to pay more attention to her. She says yes but asks what he & Elspeth were talking about before she got here: Leo dismisses it and disposes of the adoption files.
