Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Mal has brought Daisy and Jon in for questioning but they will be interrogated separately. Meanwhile, Lula has uncovered old stories of the alleged rape incident at Whistler. Mal begins to connect the dots to a girl named Katarina Popovich and believes she has found a motive for the maid’s murder.
Five hours before the murder, Jon and Daisy enter the Glass House to find that Vaness is Kit. She hands out drinks and explains that her memory of the Whistler incident only returned after she found Daisy’s hidden flash drive and two NDAs to cover up Jon’s crimes. She realizes the extent to which everybody in town gaslighted her, including her own mother.
Kit demands $900,000 from the Rittenbergs to keep their secret. At first, Jon refuses but Daisy insists that he pay the money. As they part, Jon promises retribution.
On the way back home, Jon and Daisy have a fight in the car. In the house, Daisy packs a bag and prepares to go to her parents. Jon tries to stop her, but she threatens him with a kitchen knife.
