[crickets chirping]

You're not Elise.

-[scoffs]
-Shut up, Grace.

What the hell are you talking about?

[sarcastic chuckle]

Do you wanna know why Elise
never drinks beer?

Have you seen her drink beer?

Elise's favorite drink
is tequila or vodka.

Who are you?

[theme music playing]

[theme music fades]

-[Elise] Tragedy changes people.
-[school bell ringing]

-Even if you recover from it…
-[Grace] Elise? Hello.

…you feel like a completely
different person.

To get back to your normal life,

you have to pretend
like you're still the same.

Elise!

Even if you're not.

Tristan, I know how much you miss Rose.

I miss her, too.

But the sooner we accept that she's gone,

the… the sooner we'll heal.

Is there a problem?

-Is he bothering you again?
-No, no, no.

He's not bothering me.

-Are you sure?
-Yes. It's okay.

You know me.
I don't let myself get bullied.

-Let's go?
-Okay.

Bye.

[Grace] Are you okay?

It looks like he's badgering you.

[sighs] It wasn't like that.
We were just talking.

In fact, I kind of pity Tristan.

-Hey, Babe.
-Hey.

[groans]

[groans] My body hurts.

I know just what you need.

-Wow. Muscle rub?
-Mm-hmm.

[chuckles] Old school, huh?

[Elise] Because I know
you went to the gym last night.

And I know that you haven't
been going for so long.

[video playing indistinctly]

You guys wanna eat out?

It's so stressful.
There are so many requirements.

Yeah, sure.

Uh, I'm sorry I can't.

I promised Kyle
I'll have dinner with them.

The last time I was with his parents,

there was just so much tension.

Honestly, I feel like
his parents don't like me.

Well, you don't like them, too.

Since when have you been bothered
by what they think?

Right.

Yeah, but 'cause I love Kyle.

He's always there for me when I need him.

It's best I get along
with his parents too.

Put in a little effort.

Okay, whatever. Let's eat out next time.

[Elise] If I turn out to be a better Elise

than the one before the fire,
I'm sure I'd be happier.

[Vicky] My husband's hungry.

Uh, Mom, Dad.

We have a special guest tonight.

-[Vicky] Ooh, Elise.
-Hi. [chuckles]

What a pleasant surprise. Sit down.

[Elise] Thank you.

I'm sorry I haven't
been visiting recently.

There's been so much going on.

We understand. How are you?

I'm okay.

Thankfully, Kyle's been there for me.

Um, she's giving me too much credit.

I mean, I'm just being
a boyfriend. [chuckling]

[Elise] No, seriously.

I appreciate all of Kyle's efforts

and it would be so difficult
if I didn't have him around.

[Vicky] That's great,

that our Kyle is taking good care of you.

-I wanna apologize.
-For what?

Because I know I haven't been
on the best behavior recently.

My mood swings
have been getting the best of me,

but not anymore.

If you guys could only give me
a second chance.

[chuckles] It's such a treat
to witness you and Kyle mature.

Look, don't worry about it, okay?

So, shall we eat?

-Okay.
-Let's eat.

You can start, hon. Rice?

Oh, yeah! By the way, Elise,

didn't you have a question
to ask Mom and Dad?

Uh, yes, um…

I just wanted to ask
some business-related questions.

-You want our advice?
-Ooh.

Yes, hopefully.

I know you've been long-time partners

with my parents.

And I'm thinking of focusing
on real-estate development

for my thesis.

So I can help my parents
in the future with the business.

You know what? That's wonderful.

That you know what you want
this early, right?

So, I did some research, and I saw

that your first project with my parents,

the lot that you bought
when you had that place built…

-The Flower Leaf City Condo?
-[Vicky] Okay.

-Uh, yeah…
-[Fred] Yeah.

Uh, what about it?

You see, our topic in class right now

is crisis management.

So I told Elise when it comes
to crisis management,

I mean, you guys are the best.

[Elise] Yes, and I heard that

the acquisition of the land
was a bit controversial?

How did that deal push through?

[Vicky] You know what,
that happened a long time ago,

so I don't really remember anymore.

Hon, do you still remember?

I think the best, uh, persons
to ask are your parents.

Okay. Thank you for that suggestion.

[Meding] Ma'am?

A letter arrived for you earlier.

I forgot to give it to you.

[foreboding music playing]

Claire.

Oh, what a miracle.
You're not drunk today.

[scoffs]

This isn't a miracle.

I'm avoiding alcohol now.

I'm going to try to change.

Good for you.

Elise is affected by my actions.

In all honesty,

I also feel guilty that I don't get
to spend time with Elise.

But what can I do?

I'm the only one they can rely on
in our company.

Perhaps it's not too late.

So, what do you suggest we do?

[Henry] Let us at least try
to be a family again.

For Elise.

I can't see why not.

Thank you.

[keyboard clicking]

Babe, tell me the truth.

Are you really okay?

Kyle, honestly, I'm still recovering.

But I meant what I said earlier.

I'm really thankful you're here.

Well, I have to admit.

Even I was surprised by your behavior.

You wanna get close to my parents now.

I actually really like what you're doing.

It just…

It makes me wonder, you know?

When I came back for Rose,

my life was in danger.

I thought I was going to die.

And Rose already saved my life before,

so technically, this is my third life.

My perspective on everything changed.

I wanna try and become a better person.

I really didn't think
I could love you more.

-[laughs]
-My gosh! You're so cheesy.

Hey, I'm not being cheesy.

You were being sentimental,

so I was just going with the flow.

-Oh! So, it's my fault?
-[laughs]

It's my fault, huh?

[Elise] Kyle seems happier.

I love that.

[strumming]

Stop it, Tristan.

I know you're following Elise.
Are you her stalker?

[scoffs] Oh, you mean you?

You know what? Elise isn't well.

I don't want her to get stressed, okay?

I know what you did to Rose.

Huh? What do you mean?

I know how mean you were to her.

No. Rose is our friend, okay?

You know what? If there was anyone
who was a true friend

and truly had compassion for her,

it was me.

Not any of you, okay?

[unsettling music playing]

[music fades]

[Henry] Elise?

I haven't been a good dad to you
ever since we lost Celine.

I didn't know how to grieve.

Maybe that's why I turned to alcohol.

When we lost Rose,
that was painful for me too.

I didn't know if she was just kind

or she reminded me of your sister.

I almost lost you too.

I promise I'll make it up to you.

I'll be better for you.

Okay, Claire,
I'll call you back later, okay?

Bye.

[Grace] Claire?

So, why are you calling Aunt Claire?

Since when have you been
on a first-name basis?

You know, you're such a gossip.

So, you're not denying it?

Stupid! This isn't Aunt Claire.

Is she the only one named Claire
in the entire world?

Then which Claire is it?

What do you care?

So prickly, I was just asking.

What do you want to know?

You see, I just wanted to know

if you've noticed something different
about Elise lately.

It's only normal
if Elise's behavior changes.

Wait. So you mean it isn't just me?

-You've noticed it too?
-Hey, I didn't say that.

My point is, if Elise's behavior changes,

it's because of everything
she's going through.

Someone close to her died.
She almost died.

What do you expect?

[sighs] I know that.

It's just that
there's something odd about her.

Uh, Grace, I'm kind of doing something.

I don't have time for some
girl talk. [chuckles]

You're so annoying.

You know what?
It's only 'cause Steph isn't here.

She's out of town.

And I don't want to talk to Kyle.

Mm. Jealous?

-Ew! I'm not jealous.
-Whoo! Who are you kidding?

You know what? You're the best friend.
You should know better.

I'm just worried about her.

[Jarred] You're just jealous.

[Grace] I'm so glad
this finally pushed through.

Hey, I've already had two.
Aren't you drinking?

You want more?

Sure.

Here.

[foreboding music playing]

[Elise] Tell me what's on your mind.

What's on my mind?

My mind and my heart are dying to know

if you even care about me at all.

Of course I care about you.
You're my best friend.

[scoffs] No. No, you don't.

Not like how I care about you.

You know, sometimes I wonder.

Why do you bother keeping me around?

When you fully know
that I'm in love with you.

-What?
-[scoffing]

And it hurts whenever Kyle is around.

You don't care.

You don't care.

You still want me by your side.

Sadist much?

While I'm just being stupid.

-[stutters] Grace, I don't--
-You don't have to say anything.

It's just me.

Look, I drank a lot of beer already.

Can you at least drink with me? Please?

You're not Elise.

Do you wanna know
why Elise never drinks beer?

Elise's favorite drink
is tequila or vodka.

You wanna know why?

'Cause she's allergic to beer. [scoffs]

Who are you?

Shut up, Grace.

What the hell are you talking about?

[Elise] I'm going home.
You're obviously too drunk.

I told you I was busy.
So what are you trying to say?

I told you, don't call me again.

No, you shouldn't call me.

I didn't ask you to call me, okay?

[refrigerator door opening]

Hey, why are you still up? It's too late.

I couldn't sleep, so I got some milk.

Then you go back to your room
after that, okay?

Who were you talking to?
It sounded intense.

[sighs] My old executive assistant.

I just fired her,
and now she's bothering me.

Well, delete her number,

or change your number, or block her.

You know what? That's a good idea.

[cell phone ringing, vibrating]

Hello?

[Elise] But another tragedy?

This time, it's Grace.

I'm not sure if this is
something I can handle.
