Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Nat stands at the open front door and tells Max she will testify if he brings a lawsuit against Pip. While they are talking, Pip sneaks inside and drugs Max’s ever-present water bottle with Rohypnol. When Max dismisses Nat’s threat, she punches him in the eye. This distraction buys Pip enough time to hide in a closet and wait until Max drinks his water. Pip frets as she waits for the drug to take effect: “Almost nine already. Pip thought they could buy at least three hours with Jason’s body. [...] She was supposed to start establishing her alibi in forty-five minutes” (304).
When Max finally passes out, Pip takes his phone. She also finds a hoodie and a pair of shoes that she intends to mark with evidence from the crime scene. After she leaves the house, she gives her friends Max’s phone, sealed in a plastic bag. She instructs them to leave the phone near the entrance to the Green Scene complex but not to touch it.
Pip’s final destination is the home of sisters Cara and Naomi. These are the daughters of Elliott Ward, the murderer from her first podcast season. He pinned Andie Bell’s death on Ravi’s older brother Sal and then killed him to deflect blame from himself.
