Julia storms off but Vivian catches up, insisting the overseas trip is Julia's birthday gift and that they had agreed to go together. Vivian tells two others to stop picking on Julia, reminds them that Julia’s mother has been kind, and presses Julia to come. The confrontation escalates when Vivian openly threatens, 'I'm going to make sure you never come back,' and later vows revenge for a 'past life.' With Vivian saying Terry will arrive any minute and urging immediate departure, the trip becomes imminent, leaving Julia facing a clear, unresolved danger.
