For all that Scripps has trusted in God through so much of his life, there are aspects of religion that he yet doesn't understand. Key amongst them is the Bible's tendency to tell stories about testing one's faith. If this is the test of his, Scripps may be weaker than he thought. Losing Posner to home had been one thing, but finding out about Hector and now Jimmy? He's exhausted with it all and he doesn't know what to do.
It's why he ends up at Grace's, worn from crying and pacing and cursing and praying. His eyes are rimmed red and he's worn from the tips of his hairs to his toes. He knocks, lightly, and hopes he's not disturbing the baby.
