Audrey and Nathan go to the compound. Nathan notes that it is strange that none of the children are present, since they are home-schooled. Cole Glendower and his wife Gwen (Leith's parents) come out, doing a double take when they see Audrey. They tell them about Leith's death and show them the note, but Gwen dismisses the note as meaningless. Nathan asks where Daniel is, and the couple says that he is fine and that they will take custody of him now that his father is dead. Nathan demands to see Daniel, but two Glendower men come out with guns. Cole tells Nathan and Audrey that they are not welcome unless they get a warrant. As they walk back to their car, the boy who had been tossed into the water walks up and says that they can't have Daniel because he is one of them now.
Nathan finds that Mary told Reverend Driscoll what happened when Daniel sent her a text confirming that he is at the compound. The Rev and his followers are planning to storm the compound and take Daniel by force. Nathan asks them to wait for a peaceful solution, but the Rev says that the Glendowers are filth and must be destroyed. Nathan appeals to Mary, who reluctantly agrees to wait. The Rev says that with Daniel's soul at stake, they won't wait forever.
