Coltrane says "your parents fought against him" when the door is 
shut. Whoever this is, it is someone Lily fears and

It looks to me that Lily is reacting to someone she sees BEHIND the 
mystery man (as if she saw someone approaching over his 
shoulder)...and that's why mystery man turns around (to see who it 
is).
