On her 22nd birthday Lyra plans to give her five-year painting "Dreaming of Orion" to her adopted younger sister so Orion will propose. On the proposal day Orion is missing; Lyra goes to the headquarters' cold storage for a surprise and becomes trapped, crying "Save me." A resentful member of the Donovan family boasts of taking Lyra's family, paintings and even Ori's love, then threatens to tell everyone she entered the cold storage out of spite. Lyra later wakes, finishes the painting and refuses to hand it over, but the framed scandal and Orion's absence remain unresolved.
