Charlie makes several phone calls, including to the finance office of Posey’s school. She learns that she has until Monday to pay Posey’s outstanding debt. While getting dressed, she feeds her shadow some of her blood.

Later, she goes to the medical facility where Liam Clovin works and accosts him about Vince, threatening to cause a scene if he doesn’t speak with her. Liam admits that he saw Vince on the night of his supposed death. He worries that Vince may have killed someone and that Vince’s family often used prescription drugs. Charlie asks where Vince might have hidden something secret, but Liam doesn’t know. Once outside, Charlie hears someone following her.

Charlie is attacked by Adam, who is enraged at her betrayal. He tries to kill her, but Charlie instinctively—and successfully—sends her shadow at him. She locks herself in her car, bruised and bleeding, and drives away. Her shadow is depleted and needs to feed on more of her blood. Once her shadow is fed, Charlie realizes Adam must have followed her home, so she calls Posey and orders her to leave the house.

When they meet in town, Posey is shocked at Charlie’s appearance and asks if Vince hurt her.
