During one visit, Jack found a photo of a young girl with a phone number on the back. He recognized her as one of the woman in the photos, but older now. Jack texted the number and arranged to meet with the person, who was texting him. That person seemed to be Allie, but she didn't know who they were and Jack explained that he was Hao Nguyen's father, but he knew him as Keemo.

Allie reveals that Keemo is her father, but doubts Jack is telling the truth cause Keemo said he never met his father. Jack admits to going through the letter, which angers Allie, but after reading the letters, comes to realize Jack is telling the truth.
