Henry refuses to stop seeing Lily, and Nate becomes convinced that there is a body buried in his parents' yard.

George and Lilian return home to find Nate digging up their yard.

Henry and Lily leave the bones behind as Lily calls the cops, while Robert steals and destroys the bones in the meantime.

Lily tries to get a taped confession to find out the truth, and Henry goes on a rampage when he discovers that Tom has been killed.
