Honey woke up from the little nap she had, only to see Five about to leave through the window. "Where are you going?" She asked quietly, still restricted to her bed, otherwise she would have jumped up and gone with him. "Nowhere important. Don't worry, I'll be back in a little while." He said before kissing her forehead and leaving the room. A couple of minutes later, after hearing Five's and Klaus' conversation, Honey heard footsteps making their way towards her room. "Hey, Honey, how are you feeling?" Diego asked, walking in and sitting on Five's bed. "I'm fine, Diego. How's Eudora?" She replied, making Diego chuckle.
"Wouldn't know. She wont tell me a thing." He replied, making Honey roll her eyes. "That's not what I was asking, dummy. I was asking if she's okay after last night." Diego's lip twitched upwards as he sat forwards on the bed. "I fell asleep right after you last night, and when I woke up, she was gone," He told her as their Mum came in, "Hey Mum." She smiled lovingly at him before walking over to Honey and putting her breakfast in front of her, a strawberry milkshake also on the tray. "Eat up Honey. Most important meal of the day that is." She told her daughter before giving Diego and Honey a kiss on the cheek and then leaving.
Honey began to eat her food as Diego looked around Five's and Honey's room. "He really didn't want you to change it, did he?" He muttered to himself, having only been in Five's room once before when they were younger. "He said it was one of the last things he had to remind him of Five and that he didn't want it tarnished." Honey replied before taking a sip of her drink. "Can I go to Griddys?" Honey asked, making Diego sigh, "You know you can't Honey. You're on bed rest." Honey only gave him a smile, before disappearing out of her bed with a golden flash.
"Can you tell us what the kids looked like?" A woman asked, sounding strangely familiar to Honey, who walked further into the shop. "Well, one was a little girl- wait, that's her!" Honey turned at the woman's raised voice, her eyes widening at the sight of the two people in suits who she recognized from the night before. Diego suddenly ran into the store, out of breath, and picked her up, spinning her as she giggled. "Hey, Honey, why did you just run off like that?" He asked her, trying to cover up for her sudden appearance.
"You're that detective, aren't you?" Agnes asked, making Diego turn around. "Yeah, that's me. Sorry, my little sister just really wanted a doughnut." He said, still slightly breathless from his run over. "But she was that girl from the night of the shooting." Agnes said, but Diego furrowed his brows, glancing at Honey who faked confusion. "Couldn't have been. She was in bed from about nine onward. She woke up ten the next morning and didn't wake up inbetween." Diego replied, and Agnes thought for a second before nodding with a shrug. "Must have been a lookalike, then, detective." She said, before turning back tot the two people in suits, who were staring at the siblings with a surprised look. "Bye Agnes." Diego said as they left, Honey waving at her with a small smile. "That was weird." Honey told her brother, who nodded with a mutter, "Tell me about it."

"I mean, do you really think Mom would hurt Dad?" Vanya asked as all of the siblings apart from Five gathered around the TV with frowns. "You haven't been home in a long time Vanya. Maybe you don't know Grace anymore." Luther said, but Diego spoke, still holding on to Honey, who reached out for Klaus. "If he was poisoned, it would have shown in the coroners report." Klaus plucked his sister from Diego's grasp as Luther argued back. "Well, I don't need a report to tell me what I can see with my own eyes." Diego didn't even bother looking at him as he put the video all the way back to the start. "Maybe all that low gravity in space messed up with your vision. Look closer. Dad has his monocle. Mom stands up. Monocle's gone." Diego walked away from the screen after proving his point.
"Oh yeah." Klaus chuckled as Honey reached into his crisp packet, but he pulled her hand out shaking his head. Honey tilted her head in confusion but didn't go to take anymore, much to Klaus' relief. "She wasn't poisoning him. She was taking it. To clean it." Diego said, standing next to Klaus and looking at the floor. "Then where is it? No, I've searched the house. Including her things. She doesn't have it." Luther argued again, turning to look at Diego, who was still looking at the floor. "That's because I took it from her." He replied, looking slightly guilty as he played with a knife. Klaus put Honey down on the sofa before going to make himself a drink. "You've had the monocle this whole time? What the hell, Diego?" Allison snapped, looking highly un-trusting but un-surprised that he did it. "Give it to me." Luther demanded, but Diego looked at him in the corner of his eyes. "I threw it away." He quickly said, making Luther squint at him as Honey walked over and climbed onto Diego's back, wanting to be near her brother again.
