Episode: 5
Leon talks to his assistant about the old fire and dismisses his new wife as a distraction. Sophie returns to her childhood home, where her father and stepmother insult her and kick her out. Distraught, Sophie looks at an old family photo before leaving. She heads to a real estate office to find a place to live. Leon is at the same office and hides when he sees her arriving.
Leon speaks with his assistant outside. He questions how long Sophie can maintain her act while they focus on investigating a theater fire from ten years ago. He refers to his new wife as a simple distraction for now.
Sophie faces her father, stepmother, and stepsister at home. They criticize her for choosing a man they believe is a nobody over her intended groom. Her father loses his temper and orders her to leave the house immediately.
Sophie sits in her bedroom and cries while holding a framed picture of her mother. She talks about how much she misses her mother and expresses deep sadness over the ring she no longer has in her possession.
Sophie goes to a real estate office to look for housing. Leon is present with his assistant. He spots her walking in and panicked, he tells his aide to help him hide from her sight immediately.
“I want to see how long she can keep up this act.”
“You're just as annoying as your dead mother! Get out of my house!”
“Hide me. Quick.”
Sophie reaches the real estate office looking for a fresh start. Leon, who is there for business, ducks behind a counter to stay out of her view. As Sophie turns her head to see who is nearby, the scene ends. Does she notice her husband hiding in the office, or does she remain unaware of his presence?
