In the greenroom after the appraisal, appraisers Stanley Brown and Barry Beagle encouraged Molly Gray to auction the Fabergé egg, while Juan Manuel, Angela, and Mr. Preston celebrated. Mr. Snow pulled Molly aside, worried she might quit after the windfall; Molly firmly promised to finish her shift and remain committed to her work. Concerned about safety, Beagle advised against carrying the egg, and Mr. Snow offered his office safe, which Molly accepted. As they left, crowds of guests and Bee-lievers surrounded Molly, asking for photos and details.

Mr. Snow escorted Molly toward the elevator while Juan returned to the kitchens. On the guest floors, Molly found staff and guests reacting to her sudden notoriety: Lily was supportive but uneasy, Cheryl took and posted a photo, and TVs blasted a Chatter Box clip of Molly fainting during the appraisal. A short, bearded man in a trench coat sought Molly’s address and phone number from Sunitha and Sunshine, then fled when confronted, heightening security concerns.

Throughout her shift, guests reversed the usual dynamic, inviting Molly in, offering tea and caviar, and requesting autographs. Bee-lievers intruded into a suite they were not occupying, and Molly enforced hotel privacy rules. After work, outside the hotel, opportunists swarmed Molly with business cards and offers until Mr. Snow arranged a black car to take Molly and Juan home safely.

At home, Juan worried whether wealth might change their relationship, but Molly reaffirmed her commitment and modest hopes to escape paycheck-to-paycheck living and to help Juan’s family. A financial adviser called Molly via a number found through Instagram, which Molly does not use, implying that her contact details were circulating without consent.

That evening on Chatter Box, a segment replayed Molly’s viral Hidden Treasures clip and showcased Cheryl’s earlier photo of Molly with a dustcloth, dubbing her the “Millionaire Maid.” The show interviewed Jenkins, the Grimthorpes’ former gardener, who confirmed he had given Molly the egg when clearing the mansion after the Grimthorpes’ deaths, and Serena Sharpe, who had directed the clearance and inherited Grimthorpe wealth after her mother Abigail Sharpe was revealed as the true author. Serena stated she had no idea of the egg’s value, affirmed the egg was Molly’s “fair and square,” and warned, “When you have something of value, there’s always someone ready to take it from you.”
