She's seized and threatened in public — "Let me go!" — when someone confronts her and hints at consequences. Alone, she worries that Willow's death still haunts her and that Wayne refuses to marry her, while Briar's sudden arrival sparks open hostility. Elsewhere a man agonizes over giving a red rose, recalling she once visited his mother's grave with him. The woman knocks on Owen's door, finds him bathing, and forces him to leave now: "I can't wait." They rush out, leaving the public threat and Briar's claim unresolved.
