Episode: 1
Evelyn White goes to a skyline dining room with her daughter Chloe to meet the parents of Chloe's boyfriend. Chloe's boyfriend Noah introduces his father, who turns out to be Samuel Black, Evelyn's former lover. Samuel pretends they just met, but later pays the dinner bill. In the hallway, Samuel questions Evelyn about having a child. Evelyn reminds him of their age and leaves him behind on the street.
Evelyn White walks into a high-end private dining room with Chloe. The room overlooks the city skyline. Evelyn stops when she sees Samuel Black standing there. He is the father of Chloe's boyfriend Noah and her own former lover.
Noah runs into the room calling out for his father. Samuel freezes as he looks at Evelyn. He quickly composes himself, acts like a stranger, and shakes Evelyn's hand while greeting her politely in front of the kids.
Dinner proceeds with everyone seated together. Evelyn steps away from the table to pay for the meal. The staff informs her the bill is settled. She spots Samuel sitting alone by the bar counter, smoking a cigarette in silence.
Samuel follows Evelyn into the corridor. He brings up her past claim about never wanting children. He asks if the man she chose was worth it. Evelyn answers coldly that they are in their forties and should leave the past behind.
Samuel follows Evelyn outside onto the street sidewalk. He reaches his hand toward her and calls her name. Evelyn walks away into the night, stating she no longer sacrifices herself for him like she did in prison.
“Hello, you must be Chloe's mother.”
“I remember you once told me you never wanted kids. Was he really worth it, Evellin?”
“We're both in an forties now. Can't spend the rest of lives lives stuck in the past.”
“Evelyn...”
Evelyn walks down the sidewalk alone, remembering the years she spent locked in a prison cell on Samuel's behalf. Samuel stands behind her on the street, watching her leave. Can Evelyn keep her distance from Samuel now that their children are dating, or will their painful history come out?
