Molly is transported in the back of a police cruiser and brought to the same interrogation room. Detective Stark withholds pleasantries and waits, prompting Molly to initiate. Stark begins by discussing truth and then discloses toxicology findings: Charles Black had benzodiazepines mixed with other drugs in his system, matching pills found in the suite, but not at a lethal dose. She notes the autopsy will clarify whether petechial hemorrhaging points to cardiac arrest or something more sinister.

The mention of petechiae triggers Molly’s vivid memory of Charles’s lifeless body, unsettling her. Stark probes whether Molly is angered by cleaning up after the wealthy; Molly admits she sometimes is when guests are careless and dismissive. Molly counters that detectives also “clean up” messes, suggesting their goals align in seeking closure, but Stark insists she seeks the truth about Charles’s death and about Molly herself.

Stark reveals new information gathered from hotel staff, emphasizing that Molly minimized her relationship with Giselle. Cheryl reported an unusual kinship between Molly and Giselle. Stark presses about money and gifts; Molly acknowledges generous tips but denies anything unusual.

Stark then produces Giselle’s golden timer—retrieved from Molly’s locker with Cheryl’s cooperation—undermining Molly’s claims. Molly protests the invasion of privacy, but Stark emphasizes that the locker is hotel property. Stark warns Molly that she is becoming a person of interest.

Stark asks if Molly is in contact with Giselle; Molly truthfully says she is not currently in touch. Stark instructs her not to leave the country or hide, confirms Molly has no passport, and warns that the police will be watching. Stark claims hidden dirt always surfaces; Molly replies that she understands dirt better than most.
