After leaving Chloe's house, Rachel wants to avoid being too conspicuous, for this reason she needs Frank Bowers, as he is the person she trusts at the moment. Rachel reaches Two Whales knowing that Frank was going to have breakfast, but in order not to be recognized, she rummages through the trash next to the club and finds a rubber band with which she ties her hair and a ruined scarf with which she is almost certain she is not recognized. As soon as he enters, he approaches where Frank is sitting, tapping his fingers on the table to be seen, who recognizes her from the dragon tattoo on her leg.

"RACH..."

"Shhhhhhhh, I don't want anyone else to know I'm here, let's go to your camper."

Frank does not repeat it twice: he pays the beans and goes with Rachel in the camper, delighted to know that his lioness is still alive, as well as Pompidou who goes to her parties as soon as he sees her.

"You let yourself go during my absence."

"I could say the same about you, you look like you've come out of a graveyard. What happened to you in those six months? I feared something had happened to you."

"I need to take a shower first and tell you all about it, do you have any clothes with you?"

"Of course"

Rachel finally manages to give herself a little rest and to wash herself, wearing some clothes of Frank that by force of things they are wide.

"I really needed it, thanks for everything Frank."

"Not at all, but now I want to know why you disappeared so long, I thought you had run away if not even dead, you worried me a lot."

"I'm sorry, but I've had some issues with people, including Nathan Prescott and..."

"PRESCOTT?! I knew something was wrong with that spoiled brat!"

"It's not the only one, it's also about Mark Jefferson, Blackwell's photography professor. It was horrible what I experienced."

"I'll kill them!"

"Don't you dare do anything rash, I'll take care of them, I won't involve you or anyone else in this, and you don't have to tell a soul that I'm here. Do you understand?"

"I'm only doing this for you"

Suddenly someone knocks on the door of the camper: Max and Chloe
