Polly exits the hospital and immediately spots Hank’s green pickup. Hank rushes to her, panicked by the police presence, and grabs her shoulders to make sure she’s safe. Polly assures him the police aren’t there for her, and he insists they leave together in his truck rather than retrieve her car.

In the truck, Polly reflects on the kitchen shears in her pocket and the reckless plan she nearly carried out, recognizing it could have led to death or prison. She tells Hank she will make another appointment with Dr. Salinsky, and they reaffirm their love for each other. Polly reframes her long-held longing for a child, embracing Hank as her family and recalling her late mother’s counsel.

Buoyed by their reconciliation, Polly suggests, “Let’s go home,” and they drive back expecting a quiet night. Polly feels secure and grateful, choosing connection and help over violence.

As they approach their house, police lights flash in the driveway. The sight shatters their momentary calm, and Polly assumes Tegan has told the authorities about their actions. She fears the police are there to arrest her and Hank, turning a hopeful return home into a looming crisis.
