"Hey Babe! You're home awfully early." Rory said as she saw Logan walking down the hallway from the garage, toward the family room. Rory stopped in her tracks when she saw Logan reach his arm out toward her, and pulled her into a tight hug. "Is everything ok? I know that the party can't possibly be over because it just started less than an hour ago."


"Thank you for not being related to me." Logan sighed as he held onto his wife.


"Um, babe, I AM related to you. There's a fancy piece of paper in the safe that says so."


"But not by blood . . . It makes you normal."


"Ok. . . So then what does that mean for our daughter?"


"Let's run away. Far, far away. Let's leave right now, and never comeback."


"Alright, tell me what happened." Rory sighed, pushing her husband away from her enough, so she could see his face.


"I feel sick."


"Like physically sick? What happened? You felt fine when you left."


"It's not so much of what happened, but who."


"Hey Dad? Do we have any beer?" Rory called out, reaching for Logan's hand, then dragging him behind her toward the kitchen.


"You want beer?" Luke called back. "Oh, hey Logan. You're back early."


"He needs alcohol."


"Alright, what happened?"


"Where are lane and April?" Logan asked as he sat down on a bar stool.


"Upstairs putting Ayribella down for a nap. I finished feeding her a couple minutes ago, and they were excited to burp and snuggle her, so they took her upstairs and told me to take a break. We were going to do mani pedis when they come down."


"You could always go out to get mani pedis."


"Really? 3 days after having a baby that nobody knows about?"


"Sorry, I'm not all here right now. You can go out if you want to. We can figure it out."


"Logan, I'm not going anywhere. Start talking, tell me what happened."


"Here you go." Luke said, handing Logan a beer, then popping one open for himself. "Rory, do you want anything?"


"I'm ok, but thank you." Rory answered.


"So, what's going on?" Luke asked.


"Do your parents know about the Walker situation?" Logan asked, looking to Rory.
