Season 2
After River displayed her locket on live television after her gymnastic meet in which she successfully won a spot at the regional competition, Sarah Bellum and John Utonium arrived in Sherwood, Oregon disguised as FBI agents in order to convince her to stop. Howard cordially invited them in and even had his wife Sunset bring them cups of coffee. The mood changed suddenly when Utonium suggested confiscating the locket, sending River into a rage. Howard calmly ordered them to leaving. That night, Sarah broke into the house and stole the locket while River slept, but the next day, during River's live interview with Dan Segallos, it is revealed that the Kubelik family planned for Sarah to steal a fake locket when River once again displayed the real locket to the camera. Blossom caught this footage that very night and immediately left for Oregon.
