What seems to always be the most likely way to get someone interested in someone else (at least from a story trope way)? Yeah, have the father forbid the daughter to ever go near "that boy/man" ever again and then ground her. So what does Jonathan Healy do when the Covenant member comes to town and his daughter, Alice, has stumbled into him already? Yep. And what does she do in response? Of course! She takes him over some cookies and offers to show him around the woods filled with incryptids.
Now we already know that Tom and Alice end up together since this backstory to the series but it's nice to see characters we don't really get to know in the series but who definitely have influenced the people we do follow. I will say though, I wish Ms. McGuire had not used the boring old trope in this case. It felt like a bit of a lefdown to go with something so obvious.
