When Maggie asked what she did, he only responded by saying that she "shamed him". He then dropped her off outside her aunt's house, and left her there.[1]

He appeared cordial toward Alex, and after learning that Maggie didn't have any childhood photos, took out a picture of Maggie as a child and placed it on a board. When Maggie and Alex were opening presents, they share a kiss, upsetting Oscar, causing him to loudly leave the apartment.

Maggie ran after her father and confronted him, and he opened up about why he couldn't accept Maggie for who she was. He stated that he worked his whole life to try and make sure that Maggie fit in, and that she was accepted, and that her being gay meant that she couldn't. Maggie tried to convince him that the world had changed, but he didn't believe her and left. The following day, Maggie intercepted him as he prepared to leave the city. She told him that she had come to terms with how he felt, and returned her childhood photo, telling him that she didn't need him.[1]
