As Nigel called his mother to inquire more about the man who claimed to be his father, Rebecca played dolls with Tanisha and the boys fussed as they played games on the PlayStation 5 Richard decided to take a jog around the block. It was not just a need to control the small pot belly he was starting to develop thanks to his husband's good cooking that inspired his desire for exercise and fresh air. It was that he dearly needed to ease the worries from his mind.

Spencer's growing attachment to a baby that had literally appeared from nowhere.

Nigel's lupus and increasing fatigue and weakness.

The man who said he was Nigel's long lost father.

Matilda's secretive past which even Gaines Investigation was having difficulty unraveling.

The possibility of Gerald being forced out of the school that was really all he had left in his life.

All of this ran through Richard's mind as he jogged along the sidewalk in his designer sweatsuit and expensive running shoes , his Fitbit smart watch keeping track of his heart rate.  He was so intent on his running that he didn't notice the sleek black car with tinted windows slowly following him down the street.

Niles replied," Because it's more fun to play with him first. "
