Bobbie and Stefan storm into Tony's demanding to know why he would sue her for custody of Lucas on the grounds of not having good morals. She yells at him for starting these proceedings and then sending the papers to her on the anniversary of B.J.'s death. Tony tells her that he told Justus to drop the suit weeks ago, but she doesn't believe him. Carly tries to defend Tony, but Bobbie explodes at her too. Once Bobbie was done venting and about to leave she tells Tony that he will live to regret what he has done. Once they leave, Tony thanks Carly for her loyalty to him. Carly is uneasy, but keeps quiet.

Nikolas and Katherine talk about when she was shot. She confirms Nikolas's suspicions that Stefan shot her and caused her paralysis. She tries to get Nikolas to believe that Stefan has more than made up for the accident. Nikolas doesn't seem to believe that.

Mac finds Felicia ringing the bell and helps her off the bell rope. The nuns flock to find what caused the ringing of the bell. While everyone is going to the bell tower, Lucy investigates what is in the room. She opens the door and finds an old man. She doesn't know what to think. Kevin arrives soon after and tells her that man is his father. Everyone thought he was dead, but he was just unresponsive and kept in the convent. Kevin explains that it was just easier to tell everyone he was dead instead of telling them the truth.
