Episode #95

Julian is on the phone with Alistair, AGAIN, and he is telling Alistair about business that he's checking on. Alistair informs him that he knows all of that, but he wants to know about Sheridan. Julian tells her that he's not sure of what is going through her head, but he believes that she's starting to doubt herself on whether or not that night happened. He tells Alistair that she's been spending lots of time with Ethan, but it seems harmless. Alistair tells Julian that Ethan is very smart and intuitive and to keep an eye on him. He needs to know what Ethan is thinking and always be two steps ahead of him at all times. Luis and Pilar are sitting at their kitchen table and he's questioning her about the night Martin disappeared. He asks if there is anything else she can remember that night that could help solve the mystery. She tells him that she's already told him everything about that night. Luis tells her that he's asked Sam to do some investigating because there is new technology that help find him now. Pilar thinks this would be a good idea because she knows her husband never would have abandoned them without a good reason and she can feel that he's still alive. Luis and Sam are talking about his father and the night he disappeared. Luis tells Sam he remembers hearing his father arguing with Alistair on the phone the night before he disappeared and that it was Alistair that called him in the first place. Luis is at his desk and types his father's name into a "missing persons" search and goes into flashback mode. This flashback is where Luis came home from school the day his father disappeared and found his mother crying at the table. She tells him that his father left and isn't coming back. Luis tells her that he'll take care of her and the family now. Pilar goes to work at the Cranes and wants to speak with Julian. She tells him she doesn't want to overstep her boundaries, but she is very worried about Sheridan. She tells him that she has always thought of Sheridan as her own daughter and she knows how troubled Sheridan has been in her life because of that night. Julian asks her what she knows about that night, and she says nothing more than what I was told because I wasn't working that night. Pilar tells him that Sheridan deserves to know what ever the truth may be so she can find peace in her life. Just then Julian gets a phone call and he says that he has to take care of this situation immediately. Sheridan is sleeping on her couch and having her nightmare. She wakes up screaming and Ethan runs in and calms her down. She tells him that she wants to believe what Julian told her about that night...that it was all just a dream. But she just doesn't know if she can. She asks Ethan if he knew anything, but all he said was that he heard her screaming. Sheridan asked him if he heard her screaming, then why didn't he come check on her. He told her he didn't because it wasn't the first night he had heard her scream. He said he remembered several occasions where she would be having a nightmare and scream. Sheridan told him that she didn't remember any of those other times, and that maybe she did just have a nightmare that night. But she still wants to know the truth. Sheridan says she remembers a coffin being in the house, and Ethan tells her he knows of a way to find out. He said they can check out the funeral parlor that the Cranes own. So, they go there and are checking the inventory files and find there is one unaccounted for right around the time of that night in question. They ask the big nerd who works there what this is, and he said that he'll go and check. He comes out and says that the particular coffin was damaged, so they got rid of it, and must have forgotten to put that in the file. Ethan and Sheridan seem satisfied with this answer and leave. Just then Julian walks out from the back room and tells the nerd that works there (Henry I think his name was) that he did a good thing by calling him and informing that people were snooping around. He hands him a very thick envelope full of money for his loyalty to the family. He also tells him to get rid of every copy of that particular file that could be incriminating to the family. Charity wakes up and finds that everyone went to work and school, so she decides that she needs to apologize to Tabitha for what happened the night before. She couldn't imagine why she was acting that way towards her. Meanwhile, Timmy comes down the stairs carrying a painting of Tabitha in the pilgrim get-up (the same photo Faith sent to Grace). She tells Timmy to put that back where he found it because it could be very damaging to both of them if the wrong eyes saw that. Tabitha goes out into the garden and Charity knocks on the door. Timmy wonders who it could be and then Charity just lets herself in. Timmy is in doll form sitting on the couch and Charity is looking around the room. She walks by and pats Timmy on the head...his facial expression was classic! Timmy is awfully worried about what will happen, and just then the painting starts floating down the stairs. Tabitha comes in muttering about how she has to get rid of that brat unaware that Charity is standing near her. Charity asked what she was talking about and she said a rat. Charity is apologizing to Tabitha just as Tabitha spots the painting on the wall. She's trying to hurry Charity out of the house before she can see the painting but as soon as they walk by it, it falls off the wall and she sees it. She remembers this painting from somewhere, but she's not sure of where. Julian returns back home to find Luis in his living room.
