Episode 142. Double Progeny. Part 3.

Unknown Safehouse

Eric Lane (Hank Willis), is still Live Streaming, Security Footage from the Metropolitan Hospital Center. He notices that more Doctors and Nurse, have been checking in on Abraham, more often than usual. He starts to wonder, if there a change in Abraham's condition or if he's close to coming out of his Coma. He drinks a can of Budweiser. Marge then enters the room and pulls up a chair beside, the former Gangster.

"Anything new?" Marge queries.

"Possibly, Medics are in and out of Ab's room, more than usual," Eric notes.

"Since, we've both distracted by protecting our guests and worrying about Elaina and Abraham. I discovered something new today, on the T.V."

Eric spins around, interested.

"That Gas Station Homicide, near Francis Bay. It was only caused by Emma."

"Oh shit!"

"Don't worry, she's dead"

"Did they say how?"

"Who knows. But at least she's the least of our worries."

"Right. But, Elaina and Andy still need to lay low. Even, if my theory is right about Abraham."

Marge places her right hand on Eric's shoulder, who is finding it hard to relax.

"How's our friends?" Eric asks.

"Jack's psychic abilities, still haven't come back yet," Marge says. "That plunge into the depths of a Waterfall, seemed to have made them disappear for much longer, than I anticipated."

"And, what about -?"

"Too afraid to leave his side. Mind you, she's not talking much. It's like she has a memory block also."

"Not surprising, considering she miraculously survived a 110 Storey Building falling down on her."

Francis Bay. Long Island.

Joshua Norton mid afternoon, arrives at the Wilson Household. He is about to meet his Biological Father, Harry. A couple of hours earlier, he freakishly sent Benjamin's truck into the Harbour and almost had a physical altercation, as a result. However, to save himself from a beating, handed over what cash he had left. Joshua gets out and prepares for one of the most important moments of his life. It will be emotional and considering, he too has the Abilities, he, his father and half brother have, they should hopefully bond well. Joshua walks slowly up to the house and knocks on the door. Rebecca opens the door, looking rather bleak and discoloured.

"Hi, can I help you?" Rebecca sighs, feeling tired.

"Yeah, Um, my names Joshua. I've come to see Harry Wilson."

"Joshua?"

"Oh, I'm sorry, are you Rebecca?"

Rebecca finds it odd, that Joshua may know her, being nervous.

"You know who I am?"

"I might as well, get it off my chest. I'm Harry's son. Lacy Norton was my mother."

It takes a few seconds to take it all in, then smiles a little, feeling comforted that something good and someone promising has turned up for a change, considering the fatal death of Emma, a few nights earlier.

"Oh, of course," Rebecca acknowledges.

"I hope, it's not inconvenient for me to come in," Joshua enquires.

"Not all. Come in."

Rebecca invites Joshua in. Joshua automatically believes Rebecca to be his half sister and she takes him into the kitchen and he pulls up a chair, placing his over bag, by his feet. Rebecca walks over to the perculater and starts making coffee.

"I'll go fetch, Harry - I mean Daddy. And you two can finally meet," Rebecca cheerfully replies. Rebecca starts to ascend the stairs to get Harry and she smirks to herself. "If he has Psychic abilities too, you're doubly fucked Beth."

Joshua patiently waits downstairs in the Kitchen and tries to relax himself. He then stands up and heads into the Hallway and sees a photograph of Harry and Bethany together. He recognizes her from the incident at the Harbour. Joshua worries, he will be embarrassed even further. He then has a peek into the Living room, when suddenly the front door opens and in steps Bethany from her half day at work and of course, calming Benjamin down. Joshua acts all innocent, when Bethany sees him. She recognizes his straight away and finds this a coincidence.

"Uh, Hello. Why are you here?" Bethany questions.

"Yeah - About that incident in Town...I messed up," Joshua admits.

"Yes, I noticed. You still haven't answered my question."

"Sorry. I'm Joshua. Harry's son."

Joshua holds his hand out for a hand shake. Bethany hesitates, as she approached Lacy Norton in late 2002 at her Hotel Room prior to her death and questioned her intensions on why she told Harry about Joshua, Twenty years later. Lacy died in mysterious circumstances on an Airplane. However, the police put it down to suicide, because she had terminal cancer. Bethany doesn't shake his hand, but partially smiles.

"I see. To be honest...I can see the resemblance now. Surprised I didn't notice first time, after...you know," Bethany said.

"Right," Joshua agrees.

Then, without notice, Benjamin walks in, unexpedley. He looks very exhausted and upset, by the events, surrounding Joshua putting his Truck into the Harbour, with a Twelve Ton Vehicle. When he spots Joshua present in the house, he looks really angry.

"What the hell are you doing here?" Benjamin snaps.

"Look, I paid you off. What more do you want?" Joshua argues.

"What's he doing here?" Benjamin raises his voice.

"You wouldn't believe me if I told you," Bethany grunts.

Suddenly, Harry's voice is heard behind Joshua.

"Joshua? Son?" Harry calls.

Rebecca is assisting Harry downstairs, who has a walking cane. Harry is overwhelmed that his son, that he's never met, has finally turned up on his doorstep. Joshua stands at the bottom of the staircase, pleased that his father appears to be welcoming. Harry sees the resemblance. Joshua looks similar to how Harry looked in his High School years.

"Hi, Harry. Um, Dad," Joshua greets.

"I don't think I've earned that yet. But, you're finally here."

Father and son embrace.

Joshua then has psychic flashes from Harry's life experiences.
