[FLASHBACK to Kate entering a recruiting office. We see Sgt. Sam Austen on the phone at a desk.]
AUSTEN: Right, uh-huh. Yes, I'm sure that's the exact one you have, uh-huh. I'll send one over to you, right. [He sees Kate] I'll call you back later.
KATE: Hi, Dad.
AUSTEN: Kate, the police and the U.S. Marshals are looking for you. You shouldn't have come here.
KATE: I've been waiting outside for 2 hours, they're not here.
AUSTEN: Is it true what they're saying? [Kate doesn't answer] Katie, what'd you come here for?
KATE: Why didn't you tell me, Dad?
AUSTEN: Tell you what?
KATE: I was making a scrapbook -- a surprise for your birthday. So I called one of your COs to get some pictures of you in uniform. The pictures that he sent me had dates on the back -- photos of you in Korea up until 4 months before I was born. Why didn't you tell me that Wayne was my father? Why?
AUSTEN: I didn't tell you because I knew you'd kill him. And your mother loved him. You were 5 years old. I wanted to take you along with me. She wouldn't let me.
KATE: So why didn't you kill him?
AUSTEN: Because I don't have murder in my heart. I'm going to have to call them.
KATE: Can I have an hour?
[He nods, and Kate hugs him.]
KATE: Bye, Daddy.
I think it had more to do with how much she hated Wayne and loved Sam that he knew she would kill him if she ever found out that he was her real father..
