By the time the Donovan family returned home, it was around ten in the evening. To their surprise, Maria had already returned. She hadn't mentioned her encounter at the coffee shop. Instead, she cheerfully shared that she had the next day off and planned to give the house a thorough cleaning.

Maria about the incident at the restaurant either. They simply said they were sold out for the day, so they came home early.
