Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
| Alert: Missing Persons Unit / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: Discussed in "Andy". It's mentioned that if the truth comes out that Pat kidnapped Andy, he'll end up with child services. It's mentioned earlier that Pat's husband Steve adopted Andy when they married, but as Andy was never Pat's child to begin with, the adoption would be nullified by the truth being revealed. | |
