"Good morning sweetheart," Will said when Joan came down the next morning for breakfast.
"Morning Daddy," she replied.
"Look, honey, I need to get down to the station, but before I go I need you to tell me what happened, especially because of the bomb," he sat down with her at the table.
"It was a bomb?" she was surprised.
"A small one, but enough to do major damage to the store," Will wanted to get to the point.
"It was Ryan and his friends, I know you don't believe me but I know it was them," Joan was still upset.
"Why would you think it could be them, he's a great guy," he was puzzled.
"You just have to believe me. Ryan is bad, he's done other stuff too," Joan was deciding whether or not she should tell her father about God.
"Do you really think that Ryan could have been the one to burn the synagogue? We have reason to believe that's linked to the church vandalism and the station's vandalism. What reason would Ryan have for doing that?" Will was getting aggravated.
"Because he hates God and he has a thing against me, it's hard to explain," she shifted in her chair.
"Look honey, I want to believe you, but there's no evidence that Ryan Hunter would ever commit a crime like that," he got up from his chair.
Joan remained silent.
"I need to get to work," he kissed her on top of her head before going out the door.
