Nigel appears uncomfortable as Clint and Bo express their displeasure with the news; he assures them that the letter is authentic and never left his person after receipt from Asa's attorney. Clint and Bo suggest several possible explanations, including Jared being in cahoots with Asa to deceive them. Nigel attempts to convince them that he believes the contents of the letter to be true; Bo and Clint are unconvinced. They suggest that if the information is true, that perhaps it should remain secret. Nigel reminds the Buchanan men that his loyalties still lie with Asa and that he wanted that information revealed at the right time. Clint believes that they should find out as much as they can about Jared before revealing any information to him and questions Bo whether or not if he wants to know all about Jared's past.

Bo explains that they have plans to look into the authenticity of the letter; Jared suggests that they do just that in order to clear up the situation. Clint tells Jared he is surprised by his reaction due to the fact that he has admired Asa all his life. Jared tells Clint this is a nightmare. He says he doesn't want to be Asa's son because he has just fallen for Natalie. Natalie is obviously troubled as Jared states if he is Asa's son that would make Natalie his niece.
