Frank talks to Wesley. John finds Wesley's mom and asks if she's okay. She says that the detectives just wanted to ask Wesley about the crime scene one more time. John apologizes for what happened, and Wesley's mom says that Wesley is really hoping John is his dad. John says that he's not sure if he's the best candidate. Wesley's mom turns her head sharply and asks why not. John says that he can't remember his own dad, so he's lacking in the personal experience department, and walks away.
Dante, Dr. Elvis, and Dionne argue over the crime scene photos. John walks in. Dante tells him that he doesn't "have the gray matter to be in this room." Because another truism about geniuses is that they love to lord their intelligence over the lesser people. John says, "Try me." Wesley notices all of the geniuses gathering and runs in to join them. Dante, Dr. Elvis, and Dionne pepper John with questions on varying subjects, and of course John gets them all right. Dante asks John if he's "some kind of idiot savant." Well, the first part, maybe.
Dante and Dr. Elvis get their cheeks swabbed for a paternity test. The doctor explains that she's got sample from the three men in the room, as well as the two deceased. John says that they need to locate the other group members, starting with Zeke Pepperfield, followed by Chris Sherman and William Sullivan. All along, I was hoping that John's real name was Zeke Pepperfield, because that's just a cool name. I might name my next pet Zeke Pepperfield. John says that any one of the remaining men could be Wesley's father and another one is probably the killer. Dr. Elvis says that he never knew Sherman or Sullivan, and Dionne adds that none of them did. John circles the final two names. Dante notices Wesley trying on his motorcycle helmet and promises that if he's Wesley's dad, he'll buy the kid a helmet that fits. Dionne gets back on topic, saying that Sherman and Sullivan didn't attend the University of Washington, and that they sent their sperm via FedEx. Ew. Wesley tells John that one of those two donors could be him. John says, "Maybe."
