Noah wakes up disoriented. She’s shocked to find Nick sleeping next to her and starts to panic when she realizes she’s in different clothes. Nick wakes up and tells her what happened, assuring her she’s safe. Noah is upset that Nick saw her scar and runs out of the room, slamming the door.

Shaking and crying, Noah gets into the shower. When she emerges, she finds another threatening letter on her bed. She convinces herself that telling Nick and Raffaella will only make things worse. She pulls herself together and goes to school.

After school, Raffaella isn’t there to pick her up, and Noah finds Ronnie waiting for her outside the building. He tells her that he’s been delivering the notes for someone else who is angry with her. Nick appears and demands that Ronnie leave Noah alone.

In the car, Noah reveals that Ronnie threatened her but doesn’t go into details. At home, Raffaella looks upset but insists she’s fine. Noah closes herself in her room and opens the next letter Ronnie gave her. This one is signed “P.A.P.A.” Seeing the signature, Noah is flooded with memories.
