It’s still Thursday in spring 2021. Leigh is busy with the jury selection for Andrew/Trevor’s trial. After jury selection is over, Leigh finds Walter waiting for her in the parking lot. Walter apologizes for comparing Leigh to Phil. As Walter and Leigh are talking in the parking lot, they spot Reggie. Leigh remembers that Reggie has the tapes.
Walter recognizes Reggie from Maddy’s school play in the first chapter; during the intermission, Reggie, claiming to be another dad, asked Walter about Maddy and Leigh. Walter is enraged and attacks Reggie in the parking lot, knocking him unconscious. Walter and Leigh load Reggie into the trunk of their car, kidnapping him with the intent of securing the video footage he has at his office.
Leigh and Walter drive Reggie to Reggie’s private office, bring him inside, strap him to a chair, and wake him up. They demand the alarm code for Reggie’s safe and the key to the server room, unaware that the original videos are in a safe in Andrew/Trevor’s house. Walter punches Reggie repeatedly to get the information they need. However, upon questioning Reggie, they realize that Andrew/Trevor has set up Reggie to take the fall for his crimes. Andrew/Trevor has taken every step to make sure he won’t get convicted.
