Discussions (Thomas, Val)
Despite the fact that Thomas hated breaking Danny's confidence, he just didn't feel comfortable not telling Val her son was coming to see him. He was a parent and knew how he would feel in Val's shoes. Danny's abduction had happened less than a year ago, and she didn't know Thomas at all.
He just couldn't do that to her.
He was nervous when he knocked on her door, hoping she wouldn't panic when he explained what was happening. He figured she would recognise him from Danny's trial and that might be enough to gain him at least a tiny bit of good will. It didn't help though that when she answered, his first instinct was to ask, "is Danny here?" His eyes widened and he realised what it might sound like, so he quickly rephrased. "Sorry, I- I came to speak to you. My name is Thomas Littleton. I was hoping to be able to speak to you without Danny around."
