In the present day, Emma and Gabriel watch the security footage from the evening Nathan died. To Emma’s surprise, it shows JJ visiting the house, which must have occurred when Emma was out talking to Logan. Emma realizes that the lipstick on the wine glass belonged to JJ, who left after 25 minutes, looking agitated. Later, Nathan went to the carriage house and rushed out with a small flash drive in his hand. Emma realizes this may be the flash drive she dropped the night of her parents’ murder. Nathan spoke to someone on the phone and returned to the carriage house. Though Emma identifies the woman who helped her as Daphne, she sees no one other than Nathan enter the carriage house.

Emma tells Gabriel that Nathan must have discovered something strange on the flash drive, which is why he made the call. She wonders if the information on the flash drive is linked to Gabriel’s father being fired. Gabriel retrieves his father’s old notebooks, one of which has a list of dates. When Emma Googles the dates, filtering them by location, she finds they link to cargo robberies around Arden Hills, one of which included a murder.
