Evan's reunion with Kristine felt far more like that of a parent and child who hadn't seen each other in years than the reunion he'd had with Vincent.
To begin with, Gabrielle had removed herself from the situation, and it was obvious to everyone present that Eliza's existence and her relationship with Evan had left her deeply shaken.
Evansen also stepped away to process the bombshell revelation Evan had revealed, so it ended up being only Evan and Eliza who accompanied Vincent to the Bourne household to meet Kristine.
Unlike her earlier meeting with Vincent, Eliza found herself inexplicably nervous about meeting Kristine, though that anxiety proved unnecessary, as Kristine welcomed her far more warmly than she'd anticipated.
The woman even prepared an early family dinner and invited Eliza to join, and only after the meal and some light conversation did Evan finally take his leave.
