Demi focuses on her cleaning tasks all day and has dinner with other staff members. After dinner, Bradley tries to accompany Demi to her room, until she claims to know the way and wants to go by herself after dessert. When he and the other staff members leave, Demi uses the kitchen phone to call 911. She tells them that she’s a prisoner and that there are other prisoners at the Ivory Estate and then hangs up. Demi gets lost trying to find her room and has a panic attack until Bradley appears. He guides her to her room.

After he leaves, she showers. When Demi gets out of the shower, Daphne is waiting for her in the bathroom. She says that Officer Tate has arrived and wants to talk to Demi. Daphne says that she thought Demi was happy, that she cares for all her birds, and that she won’t let anyone take Demi away from her. Demi suggests that Daphne run away with her, and Daphne scoffs at this.
