Ethan is worried, but his mother assures him that he seems like he is okay for now. They are interrupted when the phone rings, and Theresa informs Ben that Ethan has been in an accident. In an effort to make him feel less anxious about the whereabouts of his father, and to avoid talking with her son about the topic, Theresa asks Ben if he wants to take a picture to send to Ethan. His mother tells him that he is very perceptive and like Ethan in that way. He says that everyone had a tell, and that hers was that she paused and looked to the right every time she lied. When she lies, telling him that she was just leaving a message and that everything was fine, Ben notices that she is lying. In the very first episode, during a walk with his mother, Ben sees her talking on the phone and he asks her if she was talking on the phone with Ethan, his dad. He is later informed that his father has to leave town for a few days. Before blowing out the candles, he wishes that his parents won't end up like everybody's else's - he means he hopes they will not get divorced. When Ben takes off the blindfold, the boy sees his parents with a birthday cake in front of him. The first flashback into Ben's life we see is when, on the day of his birthday, Ethan guides a blindfolded Ben through a park in Seattle.
