As filming for Three A.M. is about to start, Harry turns forty-five and requests a simple day with their core group. Evelyn, Celia, and John organize a picnic, with Luisa preparing the food and Celia making sangria. John buys a large umbrella to shield them from onlookers and picks up wigs and sunglasses to complete their disguises.

They surprise Harry in the park, with Connor riding on Harry’s back and laughing as he bounces her along. At the picnic blanket, everyone dons wigs and sunglasses, the playful conceit granting them a rare sense of anonymity and freedom. The group settles in, teasing Evelyn for contributing the least, and all of them—including Connor—laugh together.

The relaxed afternoon highlights their chosen-family bond: Harry’s tenderness with Connor, Celia’s care, John’s protective planning, and Evelyn’s contentment in the moment. The scene underscores what they value—privacy, safety, and togetherness—just as the pressures of public life and a new film loom.

Evelyn closes with a stark reflection: this was one of the last times they were all happy together. She foreshadows that her own actions afterward will rupture this fragile peace, raising the stakes for what is about to come.
