Earlier, when Nathaniel realized Flynn’s attitude towards Eleanor was strange, he asked Flynn to investigate the matter, but also asked Jaxen to run a separate investigation.
He learned that Eleanor had gone to Pine Street that fateful day, but at a later time, after he had already been saved by the girl.

He looked very unhappy.
“How dare you damage my door?”
Conor and Abel checked the bathroom and stared at him.
“It belongs to Miss Ross now. We will apologize to her. But why didn’t you answer when we knocked?”
“I prefer not to talk when I’m dealing with physiological needs,”
Nathaniel said nonchalantly.
