Vera Nelson is about to finalize her divorce, counting down the last three days before she can leave for good. Her husband, Jason, breaks his usual indifference by taking her out and buying expensive jewelry—ostensibly as a birthday gift for their daughter, Nia. Vera suspects his motives are insincere, feeling like a mere prop in his plan. When she confronts him about his guilt and intentions, Jason offers more gifts but Vera remains unconvinced. The episode ends with Jason asked to return the extra beads, leaving the true nature of their strained relationship unresolved.
