The Club

The message from Ned to Nikki about his trip to London caused much confusion. It was a week after his disappearance when his body was finally discovered in the sea where he drowned. The inquest identified the time of his death as early Saturday morning but was inconclusive as to whether his death resulted from foul play. His parents came to identify both Ned’s body and that of his brother, whose body was discovered on the island.

Nikki

In Ned’s absence, which is starting to look strange, Nikki takes a long walk and reflects on her relationship with Ron. Over the years, she has begun to see it as abuse and has been glad that her son would never know his father. At this point, she runs into Kurt himself. He asks her if she knew about the filming, and she tells him that she only suspected this weekend and feels betrayed by Ned, whom she respected and trusted. Kurt has watched enough of the video to see his father prey on a series of young women, though Ned cut out the sexual activity. Kurt refuses to pay and hands Nikki the memory stick. She watches it. Ned hadn’t included Nikki on the tape, but the young girls remind her of herself back then, and she sees Ron use the same routines on them.
