We Were Never Here

Still at Emily’s hotel room, Jenny gets a phone call: Kristen is dead. When the two go back to the hospital, Aaron is awake. He explains that he saw the police sketch that CNN released of Paolo’s suspected murderer, and it so resembled Kristen that he began to fear Emily was in danger. He started driving to look for her, figuring they couldn’t have gotten far.

The Phoenix police ask to talk to Emily again, so she returns to the station. This time, they have discovered that she and Kristen were in Chile together and that Kristen came to Phoenix separately from Emily and Aaron. Moreover, several witnesses saw her and Kristen arguing in the hotel lobby. Frightened, Emily leaves the station, and the police let her go as she is not under arrest—yet.

Back at the hospital, Emily tells Aaron the whole truth, explaining all of Kristen’s manipulations, how it was Kristen who actually murdered both Sebastian and Paolo. Aaron believes her and still loves her, but he worries that the police will doubt she truly had no part in killing Paolo.
