'''Father And Son''' was a virtual representation of one of [[Ratonhnhaké:ton]]'s [[Genetic memory|genetic memories]], relived by [[Desmond Miles]] in 2012 through the [[Animus]].

==Description==
Connor and Haytham discovered Benjamin Church's location. However, to gain entrance, Connor had to steal a military uniform.
==Dialogue==
Connor met with Haytham in New York.
*'''Haytham:''' ''Evening Connor. I see you made it here in one piece.''
*'''Connor:''' ''Recovered from your beating, then?''
*'''Haytham:''' ''Benjamin Church is holed up in an abandoned brewery on the waterfront. We should be done with this by sunrise.''
*'''Connor:''' ''Good. I would like to have those supplies returned as soon as possible.''
*'''Haytham:''' ''Of course, I wouldn't want to keep you from your lost cause. Come along then. Follow me.''
*'''Connor:''' ''Tell me something... You could have killed me when we first met - what stayed your hand?''
*'''Haytham:''' ''Curiosity. Any other questions?''
*'''Connor:''' ''What is it the Templars truly seek?''
*'''Haytham:''' ''Order. Purpose. Direction. No more than that. It's your lot that means to confound with this nonsense talk of freedom. Time was, the Assassins professed a far more sensible goal, that of peace.''
*'''Connor:''' ''Freedom IS peace.''
*'''Haytham:''' ''Oh, no. It's an invitation to chaos. Only look at this little revolution your friends have started. I have stood before the Continental Congress and listened to them stamp and shout. All in the name of liberty. But it is just noise. ''
*'''Connor:''' ''And this is why you favor Lee?''
*'''Haytham:''' ''He understands the needs of this would-be nation far better than the jobbernowls who profess to represent it.''
*'''Connor:''' ''It seems your tongue has tasted sour grapes. The people have made their choice - and it was Washington.''
*'''Haytham:''' ''The people choise nothing. It was done by a group of priviliged cowards seeking only to enrich themselves. They convened in private and made a decision that would benefit THEM. Oh, they might have dressed it up with pretty words, but that does not make it true. The only difference, Connor - the ONLY difference between myself and those you aid - is that I do not feign affection.''
They reached the abandoned brewery.
*'''Haytham:''' ''Hold a moment. Church, you clever bastard!''
*'''Connor:''' ''What is it?''
*'''Haytham:''' ''I was hoping I could wave you past the guards, but he's replaced most of them with men I don't know. Hmmm. Well I should be able to pass without arousing suspicion. But you...''
*'''Connor:''' ''No. We do this together or not at all.''
*'''Haytham:''' ''Then what do you propose?''
*'''Connor:''' ''I will find a guard who is off duty and take his uniform.''
*'''Haytham:''' ''Very well. I will wait here then.''
*'''Connor:''' ''Of course you will.''
*'''Haytham:''' ''Oh I'm sorry. Would you like me to come along and hold your hand, perhaps? Provide kind words of encouragement?''
Connor stole a uniform and returned to Haytham.
*'''Haytham:''' ''That should suffice. Follow me.''
*'''Guard:''' ''Hold strangers! You tread on private property. What business have you here?''
*'''Haytham:''' ''The Father of Understanding guides us.''
*'''Guard:''' ''You, I recognize. Not the savage.''
*'''Haytham:''' ''He is my son.''
*'''Guard:''' ''Tasted of the forest's fruits, did you? Off you go, then.''
==Outcome==
Connor and Haytham gained access to Benjamin Church's storehouse.
==Trivia==
*To achieve full [[synchronization]], one constraint had to be completed: Connor could not be detected when stealing the uniform.
