Ava questions Alan why he wants to set up a trust for Rafe and a portfolio for Natalia. He confirms that he is "stepping back" from work at Spaulding and hints it's to reconnect with the family he's lost. Gus interrupts and asks where he can lock up his handgun. Alan instructs him to place it in his desk drawer.

Though he hands Gus the key, Alan has another he uses to open up the drawer so he can handle the weapon. Later, Alan goes for a walk and talks aloud to Phillip and admits how much he misses their talks.
