Anna comes back to town; Griffin meets her at the diner and they discuss Julian, and the fact that he got away with murder.  Anna is in disbelief; Griffin asks if she is okay.  Nathan tells Maxie he will have the results from the paternity test within the hour; they discuss the possibility that he could be Charlotte’s father.  Maxie admits to Nathan (as they have lunch) that a few years ago, she would not have wanted him to have anything to do with the child, because she wouldn’t want him to have anything to do with the mother – but, she says, she understands now what it is like to be a parent and she would want him to know his daughter.  

Claudette comes by the table and Maxie excuses herself; Claudette gets obviously uncomfortable when Nathan tells her the results will be back shortly (she thought she had more time, for whatever)… instantly, she tells him she has to go, and leaves.  She goes to talk to Griffin, telling him he may be the father.

Anna goes to Paul’s hotel room, but finds Olivia there instead; she asks if she can leave Paul a note – Olivia says sure, and asks her to lock up when she leaves.  Anna finds a file full of papers about the hospital killings; she says to herself that it must just be his research.  She goes to put it back in the drawer and finds that set of cufflinks they have been looking for.  

Paul sees Tracy standing by the door of his daughter’s room and asks what she is doing there; she says she just came to see Susan because she found this address for her.  Paul explains that something happened, and his daughter does not talk anymore; she uses ‘signals’ he said and she just let him know that she wanted to be left alone.  He invites Tracy out to dinner; she declines, but then concedes… he realizes he doesn’t have his wallet and tells her he needs to stop by his cabin to get it.  He takes her to a place in a remote area, apparently and Tracy looks very nervous.  Paul finds his wallet, but tells Tracy that he thinks they should order in instead of going anywhere; she says she wants to stick to the original plan.  Paul says he is sorry, but he can’t let her leave.  He locks the door.
