Sarah watches her sister sleep, happy to be back with Lily. She notices Lily always wears bracelets around her wrists, even at bedtime. Sarah wonders if the bracelets are a symbol of the cult to which Lily now belongs. She is also afraid that she will be asked to leave the house the next day. Caroline, the owner, is returning from a trip and might not want Sarah there.
The next morning, Lily tells Sarah she will let her stay only if Sarah promises to finish her A levels. Meanwhile, they see the news that the woman in Spain is not Anna, which implies Anna may not be with Karl at all. Sarah thinks this means the case is still open and that they must report their father’s text.
Henry feels sick as he has had to relive the trauma of losing Anna all over again. The woman with Karl was revealed to be his girlfriend. They’d staged the hostage situation in panic so they could request a getaway car and flee in it. Karl has nothing to do with Anna’s disappearance. He has a solid alibi for what he did after leaving the club, as does Antony. The young men fled the country after the news of the disappearance broke out because they were scared their prior history made them easy suspects.
