Sure that Joseph was behind Anna's job offer, Henry confronts Joseph in his office.

Joseph: Haven't you ever heard of knocking?

Henry: I'm going to get right to the point.

Joseph: Right to the point, eh? You could start by telling my what this is about.

Henry: I know that it was you that put your mother up to offering me a job.

Joseph: I didn't put her up to anything, I just merely suggested to her that you might want a better paying job.l

Henry: Or perhaps you wanted me away from Trish

Joseph: Don't go there.

Henry: Everyone knows that you haven't really gotten over Trish.

Joseph: You don't know anything about me, I move on. Unlike you, who sat around for years hoping that you would get a second chance with Trish after she rejected you.

Henry: All I ever tried to do was be a friend to Trish, especially when she you weren't around.

Joseph: Seems like you were trying to be a whole lot more than a friend.

Henry: Well, that's not the way Trish saw it.

Joseph: Trish can't always see people for what they are.

Henry: Well, that might be true seeing that she married you

Henry turns and leaves the office.

Teddy and Carol are meeting in the Donahue boardroom

Teddy: I reexamined disc from McGregor and found another folder

Carol: And?

Teddy: It was encrypted, heavily.

Carol: Shoot, I thought we might be on to something.

Teddy: I made a copy and sent it to a friend of mine who knows computers

Carol: Good, good.

JC unexpectedly comes into the boardroom.

Carol: J.C.

J.C.: Grandma, what is he doing here?

Carol: Well, I---

Teddy: Not that it is any of your business, but I came over here to reject Mrs. Donahue's job offer.

J.C.: Job offer?

Teddy: She wants to get me caught up in this silly feud by hiring me, but I said I don't want in the middle of it and I like working at McGregor.

Carol: That's pretty much it.

J.C.: Whatever. Grandma, I came to invite you to a party I'm having just for a few of my friends and family.

Carol: Will Anna be there? If so, no thanks.

J.C.: Can you please just put that aside for a few hours and come to my party, it would mean a lot.

Teddy: I don't need to here this, I'll just be leaving.

Teddy leaves.

Carol: I don't know, J.C., I don't feel comfortable being in the same room with anyone named McGregor, excluding you.

J.C.: I'll personally make sure you don't run in to anyone. I'd really like you to come.

Carol: All right, you got me.

J.C.: Thanks..

J.C. leaves. Once he gets on the elevator, Teddy comes back into the boardroom.

Teddy: That was close.

Carol: We'll have to be more careful from now on, now that someone has seen us.

Meanwhile, at Anna's office, Yvette confronts Anna.

Yvette: I thought we could talk about my project again

Anna: Unless you found another place to build, there is nothing to discuss.

Yvette: I think I might have something to change your mind.

Anna: I don't think so.

Yvette: When I get finished saying what I have to say, you'll be singing a whole different tune.

Anna: I don't like the sound of this, what have you done.

Yvette: It isn't a question of what I did, it's Father's actions you should be concerned with

Anna: What are you talking about?

Yvette: Did Father ever tell you about his life before he met you?

Anna: He grew up in the Upper Peninsula and worked for a lender, but why on earth are you asking me?

Yvette: Because it is time that you learned the truth about the man you believed was such a saint.

Anna: I don't know what you are getting at, but I don't want to hear it.

Yvette: Not long before he met you, the town he lived in went through some economic problems. Some of the people couldn't afford to keep their homes, so he offered to help them.

Anna: He was always trying to help someone, that's the way he was.

Yvette: But this time he was only trying to help himself. He had over a dozen people put him on the deed to their homes, with the promise that he would save them, but instead he sold the houses without their knowledge and ran off with the profits.

Anna: Oh, my god. I can't believe this.

Yvette: I know this must come as a shock.

Anna: I don't know what to say, it's horrible. I just can't believe that you would tell me such a lie.

Yvette: Oh, it's true. I spoke with a resident of the town, she gave me a copy of the deed that she added his name to. (shows her the deed)

Anna: This doesn't mean anything, this doesn't prove that he conned these people out of their homes.

Yvette: What reason would this woman have to lie?

Anna: This has to be a misunderstanding.

Yvette: The sooner you face the truth, the better.

Anna: Why are you doing this? What are you trying accomplish? Are you trying to hurt me?

Yvette: Because this is the only way I can keep you from shooting down my proposal.

Anna: I don't understand.

Yvette: You wouldn't want Joseph, Edmund and Lynette or even JC to find out that their beloved father and grandfather was crook.

Anna: You wouldn't dare tell them this.

Yvette: Just sign off on my proposal and I won't say a word.

Anna: This is insanity.

Yvette: This is business. I don't want to tell anyone else this, but I will do it if I have to.

Anna looks at Yvette with an expression of shock, while Yvette stares back at her coldly.
