Inside a building, Nick's father pulled them into a room, where he told his son that a watcher told him that if Nick ever met a girl with a flower, to do what she said. As Nick tried to comment, his father told to not question it. As Division banged on the door, he said his goodbyes to Nick, and as they entered the room, he moved his son into the vents.
