Meg is going through her old house on Canyon Drive, noticing all the changes, when she spies someone watching her out front: Scott, Meg’s fiancé. Meg suspects Kat and Scott are working together.
Kat is matter-of-fact and cold when she confronts Scott about his lies and confronts him for gaslighting her. She makes him gather all his things and leave. Kat gets another call, and fearful it’s a debt collector, she answers, but it’s Renata, who tells Kat all about how Meg conned her brother. During the conversation, Kat gets Celia’s name and reaches out to her. Celia tells Kat that Meg gave her the lake house, and Kat has a kind of respect for Meg’s actions. Kat decides to cancel the police report against Meg, but when she calls to do so, they inform her there is no case number that matches the one she has. She realizes Scott lied to her about that too. She starts to get her notes on Meg, but when she opens the cabinet where they’re kept, she finds nothing but blank paper. Scott took her novel and her notes with him.
