The narrative shifts to Finn’s perspective as he undertakes an emergency weekend maintenance job for a new client. Finn is instantly suspicious of the job because the client has agreed to pay a higher fee for emergency service, but the problem they described is not urgent. When Finn arrives at the client’s home, he discovers that the job is a setup; the client is actually a reporter who wants to interview Finn about the bodies in the attic. Finn refuses to speak with her, and when he storms away from her flat, he is ambushed by a photographer. Enraged, he breaks the man’s camera and drives home, shaking with anger. He finds Mia in bed wearing noise-canceling headphones and ignoring the baby’s screams. Finn suspects that Sonny has been neglected for hours. Finn and Mia argue about her behavior, and Mia feels helpless to explain symptoms that she herself does not understand. Later, Finn vents to Dave and Debbie, sharing his frustration about Mia’s behavior. Debbie admits that she is also concerned. She and Dave confide that in an effort to help Finn, Mia, and Sonny start afresh, they will help them to buy another house.
