Margot tells Lucy, Sloane, and Nicole that Levi was responsible for Eliza’s death but clarifies that she doesn’t know exactly what happened. She remembers Eliza changing over the summer, becoming increasingly interested in Levi and spending more time alone with him. Margot felt left out but also worried about what would happen when Levi realized that Eliza was just flirting with him, without any intention of a real relationship. Lucy, Sloane, and Nicole ask if Levi was obsessed with Eliza, and Margot confirms it. Before Eliza died, she told Margot that she felt like she was being watched, and she confessed that Levi watched her through her window at night from his house next door. Margot insisted that this was creepy, but Eliza told Margot that she didn’t understand her relationship with Levi. Margot thought that she could see Levi outside Eliza’s window, watching them.
Three weeks after the start of summer, on the anniversary of Eliza’s death, Margot stays in bed. The weather is rainy, and she ignores the knocks and sighs outside her door as Lucy, Sloane, and Nicole stop to check on her. Margot regrets not going home for the day, thinking that she could have checked on the Jeffersons if she were stronger.
