Sloane calls Margot and Nicole to the TV as the dean of Rutledge, Dean Hightower, appears on the news. Margot comments on the sparseness of the house since the women are slowly moving their belongings to their new apartment and settles onto the couch to watch Hightower’s speech. The dean addresses Levi’s death, adding that 23-year-old Lucy Sharpe is missing and wanted for questioning. Hightower adds that Lucy embedded herself in the Rutledge community, though she wasn’t a student at Rutledge, noting that no university rules were violated. Because Lucy befriended residents of Hines Hall and then moved off campus, she didn’t technically break any rules. Sloane is disappointed, saying that the college is avoiding responsibility, but Margot isn’t surprised. She’s mesmerized by the image of Lucy displayed on the screen.
In Lucy’s room, Margot examines the picture of herself and Eliza. She takes Lucy’s ID and pulls up the photo she took of the envelope she found in Eliza’s room. The addresses match. Margot wonders how Eliza and Lucy could have known each other and suspects that Lucy and Levi knew each other before they met at Penny Lanes. Suddenly, Lucy knocks on the front door, yelling for Margot to unlock it.
