Walter had just arrived at work with Paige and Ralph when Toby approached him.
"Hey Walter do you know a woman named Kate Finch?" Toby asked "She has been calling since 7 o'clock and keeps asking for you, I tried to ask why and she said it's an emergency and hung up."
Right at that moment the phone rang and Happy shouted, "It's her again!"
"I'll talk to her, see what the emergency is." Walter said.
"Mrs. Finch, what is the emergency you've been calling about?"
"Walter I need to meet you right now!"
Walter instantly recognized the voice, Kate was an old girlfriend from college who he had fallen in love with. She was one of the few people who was patient with him and put up with his terrible people skills.
"I'm at the Metro Plaza Hotel and I need you to come meet me." She sounded desperate.
"Kate, what is this about?" Walter asked, suddenly afraid his coworkers were eavesdropping.
"I need to tell you in person, just please come." She said.
"I'll be there soon." Walter said and then hung up.
Walter started walking to the car when Paige stopped him.
"What's the emergency?" Paige asked.
"Nothing," Walter lied. "Just an old friend who wanted to talk."
"You had friends?" Toby asked. "That doesn't seem like you at all."
"Yes, I had friends." Walter replied. "Anyway, she just wants to talk, I'll be back soon,"
Before anybody else could ask any more questions Walter told Paige goodbye and got in his car.
On his drive over Walter thought about the last time he had talked to Kate. He had broken up with her so he could go take care of Megan. She had seemed fairly understanding and wished him luck. 'Why contact me now?' Walter wondered.
When he got to the hotel he saw her standing outside with a girl who looked about ten.
"So Kate why did you call me?" Walter asked.
She took in a deep breath and finally looked at him and said, "Walter I should have done this a long time ago but I was afraid of how you would react."
She then grabbed the little girl's hand and said very nervously, "Walter this is Abby, she is your daughter."
