Maeve and Kate go shopping together at Century City. It is the first time that they have been able to be together, with Kate often making excuses about how busy she is with Derek. As they walk, Maeve asks her about Derek and her bruises, but Kate changes the subject to Tallulah. Maeve is annoyed that Kate would bring up her grandmother—knowing that Maeve struggles to talk about it.
Maeve catches a girl, dressed in black, watching her from outside one of the stores. When Maeve sees her, the girl quickly runs inside. Maeve starts to ask Kate about it, but Kate instead tells her how sorry she is about Tallulah. She apologizes to Maeve for not being there and for the fact that Maeve has to deal with it all on her own. The moment brings Maeve relief, as she realizes that Kate is still there to support her.
Kate then brings up Gideon. The look in Kate’s eyes reminds Maeve of several other moments in their friendship that are always “terrifying” yet exhilarating for Maeve. She thinks back to the first time she saw it, early in their friendship.
