May collapses and family scrambles as someone uses a home first aid kit — airway clear, breathing normal, pulse weak. Relatives blame themselves; Finley stays at her side while Mrs. Shaw asks for grandchildren. Later the same woman admits she was paid to act and warns that walls have ears.

The woman is left alone with a desperate unresolved choice.
