At the Chateau, Hope was about to climb out the window when Kurt returns and finds her there. He asks her what she thinks she's doing? Hope says that she needs air. Kurt starts telling her that she does not need fresh air, she needs rest. Hope sees Bo and John on the grounds, and is overjoyed. Hope tries to keep Kurt distracted and not let him learn that Bo is here, and she vows to make sure Bo finds her this time. Kurt locks the window so she can't be tempted to get out of bed for more fresh air, and then he leaves and locks the door behind him.
Bo and John show up to search the castle, John is positive that it holds some secrets still. They walk into the castle, and begin looking around. Kurt shows up, and John and Bo decide to talk to him. Kurt asks why there are here, Hope isn't here. John says they are back to search again, and if he has nothing to hide, he won't have a problem with it. Kurt says that he is only the caretaker and can't give them that permission, but Bo says they have Greta's permission. Kurt says very well, but he tells them that there is nobody here. He claims he was going to take a shower and left the water running, so he leaves to turn it off. Kurt goes upstairs and grabs Hope. Downstairs, Bo asks John where they should start searching? John suggests they let Kurt lead the way. They go upstairs and begin to search rooms. Meanwhile, Kurt gags Hope and takes her up to the turret. John begins to remember the secret passage to the turret, and starts searching for it.
Greta and Eric visit the cemetery at the chateau. Greta tells Eric that it was sweet of his mother to take care of the burial service arrangements. Eric tells her that she cares about her, they all do. Greta says she never realized how beautiful this place was because last time she was here she was filled with so much anger, and now she has to go through it all again. Greta apologizes for getting upset, but Eric tells her it is okay and these feelings are normal. Greta hugs Eric and tells him that she's so glad he's here with him. She can't believe how much has happened since they were last here. Eric tells her that she got to be with her mother. Greta turns away from him, and Eric tells her that he knows she feels guilty about what her mother did, but she can't be held responsible because she had been separated from her mom for so long that she would have done anything to have her back. Greta tells Eric that he is the only one who really understands how precious that time was. She hopes by burying her mom here it will put her to rest. She also hopes that Bo finds Hope so Shawn can have his mother again. Eric tells Greta that he knows Gina hurt a lot of people and told a lot of lies, but the one pure and honest thing about her was that she loved her daughter. Greta hugs Eric again and says she doesn't know how she'd get through this with out him. Eric asks her what she'll do after the funeral? She says she'll probably go back to Salem and start on her new life. Eric says that sounds nice, but he suggests that they make it their new life. Later, Greta tells Eric that for some reason, her mother wanted them to bring her here.
