At Brittany's funeral, Marie accuses Ms. Hodge of stealing her college acceptance letter decades ago and of funneling Sean's salary to support "that mother and daughter." Tempers explode: Blake rejects the woman he calls "mother," and Marie bitterly says she wished the mother had died, blaming her for ruining her father's bond with Brittany. As the family fight threatens to derail the ceremony, Marie screams for help and collapses. She then jolts awake disoriented—sitting at the 1984 SAT—and realizes she's been reborn, leaving the family showdown unresolved.
