Out of a pure case, Timo Mendes and his best friend Emilio Sanchez see the photo Leonie uses for her search and recognize that the man Leonie's looking for is the priest of their community in Palma de Mallorca.[2] Leonie asks the boys for Jan's address and is determined to confront him. She travels to the Spanish island all on her own and is caught by Emilio when she searches Jan's place.[3] Timo and Emilio want to know the connection between Leonie and Jan and try to confront her. As she runs off, Timo tracks her down and wants to know the truth. Leonie slowly starts opening up to Timo and tells him that Jan is her father, who walked out on her mother after he found out about the pregnancy. Timo can't believe that Jan would walk away from its own child and wants Leonie to talk to him. He lets her stay at his place for the night, only to see that she has already left the next morning; only leaving a thank-you note. Leonie starts to sight Jan, when he's consulting a pregnant teenager. This is opening all old wounds by Leonie and she screams at Jan for being a hypocrite. Jan's wondering about Leonie's behavior and follows her. He even apologizes to her if he said something that might have hurt her and asks if she is maybe pregnant herself.
