Chloe asks Evelyn if Samuel is her real father. She worries she and Noah are related. Evelyn brushes off the question with an old joke about finding her in the trash. Later, Evelyn fingers Samuel's business card by the rainy window. Her thoughts drift back to her youth. She remembers growing up alongside Samuel as dirty, poor orphans in an alley before their connection turned into fierce hatred.
Chloe sits across from Evelyn at a cafe table and asks if Samuel is her father. She worries about being Noah's sibling. Evelyn deflects the question by telling Chloe she found her in a trash can.
Evelyn puts her hand on Samuel's business card inside her apron pocket. She stands by the cafe window and watches the rain outside. Her mind wanders back across decades to the turbulent history she once shared with Samuel.
Flashbacks take Evelyn back to her childhood with young Samuel. They look at each other as fond friends, then glare with deep anger. Finally, both appear as dirty, poor orphan children standing side by side in a broken alley.
“Mom, is he actually my dad? Then Noah and I would be star crossed siblings.”
“No, I found you in a trash can, remember?”
“We grew up together. First loves. And enemies who wanted to kill each other.”
The episode closes with young Evelyn and young Samuel standing alone in a grimy, derelict alley. They are dirty and abandoned. Evelyn remembers believing that nobody would care if she died. What drove these two inseparable children apart, and what turned their shared survival into bitter hatred?
