After the funeral, Nathan sits on the couch and remembers that Keith became actively hostile to him around the time Jenna left town. He realizes that Carl scared Jenna into leaving. Bub wanders into the living room. He spent most of the funeral passed out in his room. He is confrontational because he thinks Nathan and Ilse are going to gang up on him regarding the farm. Nathan brings up Kelly’s death. Bub gets defensive and attacks him. Nathan fights back, and they knock over the Christmas tree, which bangs against Cam’s painting. Liz and Harry rush into the room. Harry catches the painting before it falls, and Liz inspects it for damage. She yells at them for their disrespect.
