John Finnegan vs Li Finnegan
Li is at the hospital working in her office. Finn enters and Li instantly braces herself. The younger doctor tells his mother, “Luna is alive because of you.”
Li tries to explain, she was trying to help. Poppy barges in and says Finn summoned her there. Finn says that Luna is alive.
Poppy thinks he’s joking, but the doctor saw Luna himself. It’s true. Li lied about Luna dying and gave her a second chance.
Poppy is horrified and repulsed that her daughter is alive. Poppy bashes Li and then demands to know where Luna is.
Finn says she’s back in prison. The mother smiles because that’s where Luna belongs. There’s more, though, Finn says.
They are going to be grandparents. Poppy assumes Luna had a fling. Finn says that the baby belongs to Will.
