She tells Buck she doesn't want him to go with her, but he still follows her there. She initially rejects him but they end up making up. Then, she tells him she loves him for having gone after her. Athena investigates when a Santa Claus impersonator tries to get extra money to donate to the charity he works for by cashing in a casino chip, that turns out to have been one of many taken in a robbery in 1987. Hen's discovery about her mother's past leads her to try and reconnect the former lovers, but Toni rebuffs the attempt, later revealing to Hen that she was planning to run away with the man, having still been married to Hen's father at the time. Toni found out that she was pregnant with Hen the day she was supposed to leave and realized she couldn't abandon her family. Hen tells her mother that Toni is now her family's priority, not the other way around, and this gives Toni the courage she needs to reconnect with her former flame.
