After Death, She Strikes - Episode 2

At a birthday gathering in the family home, a woman reveals she was only taken in because Tessa is weak and she serves as Tessa's walking blood bank. Clara shares the same birthday; Grandma and Elias (Eli) give gifts and keep the mood light. When the woman tells Eli, "I won't let you get engaged with Clara," she frames it as protecting his welfare and her blood supply. The mood shifts as she praises Eli, then realizes he sacrificed his love to ensure she remains Clara's blood bank. The episode ends with her unloved and that betrayal unresolved.
