Where Butterflies Wander

Leo has his hands treated and bandaged at the hospital and is told that he won’t be able to use them for a while. Leo is welcomed home warmly by his daughters and Rock. Marie is at the cabin trying to salvage what she can from the remains of the fire. Leo goes to help her, but Marie refuses to let him. It is clear that she is ridden with guilt, and Leo has no choice but to let her be. When he sees a brush with some hair on it, he asks Marie to hand it to him and takes it back to the house.

Brendon is hiding out in the woods, away from all the commotion and in an attempt to run from his guilt. He had no intention of burning the whole cabin down, but by the time he realized that would happen, it was too late. He remembers setting the fire and running back to the house to hide in his room and pretend he was there all along. He stayed with Penelope and waited for his parents to confront him about starting the fire. When they never did, Brendon realized that he got away with yet another mistake and doesn’t know how to feel about it.

Three days after the fire, the family feels better, but Leo and Marie are still on edge about the children going anywhere. Penelope thinks about Brendan, who continues to isolate himself from the family. Penelope believes it is because of the harsh things that Brendon said on Father’s Day. Leo takes the girls and Rock to visit Davina in jail, and they take some of the belongings that Marie found.

Hannah and Rock hold each other’s hands tightly as they enter the jail. Seeing Davina, it is clear that she is worn from being away from her home, but she puts on a front of strength anyway. Davina sees Leo’s bandaged hands, and she tells him that it was just a cabin. When Penelope presents Davina with a little frog figure from the cabin, Davina explains that she bought it in Afghanistan and that it’s only lucky if it’s given as a gift. She gives it back to Penelope, telling her to keep it. Leo tells everyone else to leave so that he can talk to Davina alone.

Leo apologizes to Davina, nearly in tears, and gives an envelope to her. She opens it, and her expression quickly turns to anger as she puts the document back in the envelope. Leo suddenly realizes that Davina already knew the information inside, which explains her real name and that she is the daughter of an extremely wealthy man. Davina left that life behind and sees her life with Rosalinda as her real roots. She has no interest in any money that may be left in a trust for her. Leo realizes that he has once again made matters worse for her.

Davina has left her old life behind and hates the idea that other people have found out that she is connected to someone like her father. Davina hopes that nobody else knows because neither she nor her daughter will benefit from the media finding out. The sheriff comes in with good news: A sympathetic veteran has bought her a house, and it happens to be the house that Davina and her mother moved to when they first arrived. Davina is relieved and grateful but still concerned about her past becoming public knowledge.

Leo has told Marie about Davina’s past. Knowing about Davina’s past angers Marie because she doesn’t understand why Davina would allow all of this to take place when she could have just bought another house. Publicity from the trial has caused Marie to be fired from her job. Marie realizes that Hannah hasn’t had headaches lately and checks her room, finding the tincture from Davina. Marie feels betrayed and angry, believing that Davina has set out to destroy her life.

On the way home, Hannah can sense that Rock is angry about what has happened to Davina and wonders if he won’t want to see her anymore. Inside, Marie is waiting with the tincture, and although Hannah apologizes, Marie cries and accuses her of choosing sides. Hannah doesn’t feel like she chose sides at all and hopes that her mother can see that one day. She decides to take Penelope to the basement to sift through their great-grandfather’s old belongings and find things to donate to Davina.

Penelope finds an old photo album with photos of Marie as a teenager with her grandfather. They both look happy. Penelope also comes across photos of Davina and her husband and daughter, and Davina’s dark hair and golden eyes are shockingly beautiful. Penelope wonders if Marie’s grandfather is actually Davina’s father, which would make them related.

Brendon feels like his mistakes are the cause of everything that has gone wrong for the family and Davina. He sits in the woods overlooking the river, reflecting on the situation. He experiences flashbacks to when he pulled Bee’s dead body out of the water. Banjo howls, startling Brendon.

Davina takes her boat back to the cabin, where she plans to spend the night in a sleeping bag in the shed. She isn’t prepared for how devastating the wreckage is and realizes that she has lost everything that connected her to her past. Davina hunkers down in the shed and listens to the rain, and her cat, Teddy, appears, which comforts her greatly. Davina thinks of Rose. She hears Brendon’s dog, Banjo, howling and goes out and sees the dog caught in a trap. Brendan doesn’t know what to do. She attempts to use a stick to pry it open, but the stick breaks, and Brendon panics. Davina tries to calm him and instruct him through each step as she uses her bare hands to pry open the trap so that Brendon can pull Banjo loose. Davina manages to pull it open but loses her pinkie in the process. Brendon has to retrieve it for her. She instructs Brendon on how to drive her boat so that they can get both herself and the dog to town. Brendon is in shock but manages to do everything Davina tells him. Along the way, it occurs to Davina that Brendon was the one who started the fire.

Leo lies in bed thinking about how difficult and awful his life has become and how his family is nothing like it was before. He thinks about how his relationship with his wife has suffered and wishes he could get it all back. Leo’s phone rings. It is Brendan calling from the nearest town with Banjo and Davina. Brendon explains what happened. Leo relays the information to Marie, who is angry to hear that Davina is out of jail and back at the property. Marie and Leo head for town to find Brendon.

Marie and Leo find Brendon at the animal hospital. Brendon, who almost never cries, sobs deeply in his mother’s arms, and the moment is painful for them both. Marie looks down at Brendon’s shoes and notices that they have a splatter on them. She thinks about the investigation of the fire and how it was proven that the fire was started with gasoline. Marie knows that her son lit the fire and immediately goes to find Davina.
