Outside the office door, Charlie intones, “Hold it right there, Liam Spencer,” as Liam raises his hands in the air in terror. He slowly turns and Charlie chuckles that he forgot his badge at the gate. Liam gasps, “Okay.” Charlie asks, “You okay there, pal?” Charlie rambles on as Liam tries to recover, and touts his keen powers of observation. He thinks Liam looks like he crawled out of a laundry pile and figures he’s crashing with a paramour after moving out of Hope’s. Liam is rendered speechless when Charlie mentions he heard some stuff down at the precinct, but Hope interrupts. Charlie realizes they have a meeting and chuckles, “That’s why you’re so edgy.” Hope asks what’s going on. Charlie jokes about Liam forgetting to sign in.

Hope and Liam enter the office where she and Thomas warn Spencer that Lt. Baker will probably want to talk to him about what happened to Vinny. Thomas fumes that the monster who did this is still out there and doesn’t deserve to spend another day free. He goes on about his long-standing friendship with Vinny, who made bad decisions, but wasn’t a bad person. “He had the biggest heart. And someone killed him! Someone ran him over; some heartless bastard mowed him down and left him to die.” Hope recaps that everyone hated what Vinny did with the paternity test but no one wanted this. Thomas relays that Baker seems confident but if he doesn’t find the culprit, Thomas will. He’ll make sure the bastard pays for what he did!
