Philip visits Belle again, patiently reminding her of their tender, blissful marital period and braving her cruel claim his leaving after Shawn's paternity of of Claire was established, wins another kiss but is still told they can't have a future together. Fellow hothead Shawn discusses with his father, for once a calming influence, and police academy Commander Flynn, his chances of starting a police career if he lays low and does precinct voluntary work until the board reconsiders his application next term. Belle surprises them by stating not Philip, but she wrote the anonymous letter denouncing Shawn's law-disrespectful past while they fled with Claire.
