Lucy drives home through dark, empty Plumpton streets after an emotional day. At a downtown stoplight, Lucy sees Emmett painting a sunflower on the art shop window and decides to stop. Lucy apologizes for ignoring Emmett’s texts, and Lucy admits that coming back to Texas and revisiting Savvy’s death and Lucy’s marriage has been horrible. Lucy starts crying again while trying to explain herself.

Instead of simply comforting Lucy, Emmett kisses Lucy. The kiss is unexpectedly aggressive and immediately unpleasant to Lucy; Emmett presses against Lucy, kisses too forcefully, and puts a hand on Lucy’s breast. Lucy does not actively respond and begins thinking about how to get away, showing that Lucy is freezing rather than consenting.

Emmett’s touch and the smell of paint trigger a buried memory from five years earlier at the wedding. Lucy realizes Emmett was the unknown man Lucy had been remembering kissing that night. In the recovered memory, a drunk Lucy had been making out with Emmett near a dumpster as an act of spite toward Matt, but Emmett became rough and clearly intended to have sex there. Savvy appeared, sharply told Lucy to leave, and snapped Lucy back to herself. When Lucy tried to stop, Emmett grabbed Lucy’s hand hard enough to hurt, and Lucy apologized before running after Savvy.

Back in the present, Nina arrives in scrubs and interrupts the scene with an icy glare. Nina asks to speak to Emmett privately, and Emmett follows Nina into the art store. Lucy hurries back to Lucy’s car, shaken. As Lucy thinks about Savvy’s angry expression at the wedding, Lucy begins to wonder whether Savvy’s reaction to Emmett meant more than simple disapproval, and another memory starts to come into focus.
