Adam is still haunting his family, even as a solid presence.
Adams older brother Dannys skepticism about Adams true identity is renewed in All You See Is Dark.
Hes calm on the surface after he makes his mistake (I dont remember him.

and smoothly changes the subject to a pair of old-school sneakers on display.
Theyre the ones he was wearing that fateful day he was stolen.
As Claire finds out, Adam sometimes needs to subconsciously remind himself of his own name.
At least the elder Warrens are trying to deal with Adams emotional well-being this week.
Still, their efforts are clumsy and embarrassing.
Hes not our son, hes…he is in there, somewhere, she pleads.
just, just help us find him.
(Who needs artful symbolism when you have a split screen?)
The sequence draws a parallel between Adam and Hank, of all people.
Hank is Adams ship-in-a-bottle guru, though he seems to be keeping that little secret from his parents.
(Did Hank instruct him to?
Id think so.)
Willa knows a lot of things, apparently.
Claire is still running for the governorship, as John confirms with some sarcastic jabs over grocery organization.
Willa is single-minded in her bid to get her mom elected.
Claire foresees that her husband might be the problem there, but Willa has an ace in the hole.
What were Willas motivations there?
Was she protecting her mother?
Weve never seen her be particularly loving to either.
Or was she exerting undue control because she needs to?
Maybe this marriage was supposed to have ended 10 years earlier, and who gave her the right?
Are you threatening me?
Im asking you not to make me do that, Willa calmly answers.
NEXT: A picture-perfect childhood
John hasnt stopped reaching out to Detective Meyer for sympathy and connection.
(I wonder what the rest of the precinct makes of his private visits.)
But Meyer is caught up in following the red dragon lead.
Their first sweep comes up empty, and her chief cant justify another one.
Len (Ruben Santiago-Hudson, also Becketts former captain onCastle) trusts Meyer, but numbers are numbers.
Predictably, the detective heads out into the unswept portion of the search area alone.
Shes being watched by the pock-marked man we saw at the end of the pilot.
Cant burn down a metal bunker, though, so Meyer gets her search team back.
Meyer mimics Adams closet sleeping posture and raises her arms; they hit the walls.
She can just make out the red dragon in the distance.
The break is soured when Len gives Meyer the youre a good cop, but routine.
Shes too sullied by Hanks overturned conviction to be the face of this case.
Neither is Hank, whos holding both a grudge against the Warrens and an obsession with their son.
Im the guy that killed you.)
Whether Hank acted on the desires those crocheted mittens represented, they doomed him.
So far,The Familys most fascinating moral quandary is the case of Hank Asher.
Were the children of Red Pines safer with a possibly escalating pedophile locked up, even without cause?
Adam certainly wasnt, as John reminds Hank.
The Warren house isnt a home to anybody anymore, least of all Adam.
Its a practice range a museum of Adam Warrens life.
The repetition could be a coping mechanism, but it could be sheer mimicry.
(Ive been praying for your family.
Oh cool, yeah.)
She would, of course, but Willa had already picked them up.
The paranoia is catching.
