Outer Banks & The summer I turned pretty
For Blair, it was almost like winter didn't count. Summer was what mattered. Her whole life was measured in summers. Like she doesn't really begin living until June, until she's at that beach, in that house...
FEELINGS THAT COME BACK ARE FEELINGS THAT NEVER LEAVE Frank Ocean

OUTER BANKS PARADISE ON EARTH Two Tribes. One Island.
Still day 7 After Blair says goodbye to Sarah and leaves Tannyhill, she goes back to the beach house but not to go back in, no she goes over to the garage and takes out Belly's bicycle. She doesn't have one herself because she doesn't actually ride a bicycle very often but now it has to be. How else is she supposed to get to the Cut? It's not just a 10 minute walk. That would clearly take too long. So after she gets the bike, she drives to the Cut. Thanks for lending your bicycle, Belly.
Her mother forbids her to go there just like that. "You never know what's going on," she said, but Blair doesn't care. Laurel treats the Cut and thus also the pogues as if everything with them is bad or wrong. The pogues are dangerous or anything. This is complete nonsense. Just because her mother has no idea, she doesn't have to say anything that's wrong. Blair knows better. John b is friendly and some other pogues are also perfectly fine. They're all just people, aren't they? Just humans
When Blair arrives at the cut you can already see that everyone is still in the process of putting the last branches and other things of the Hurricane Agatha in order. Blair looks around and feels a little bad. While everyone in Figure eight is already sitting in their homes again and chilling their lives, because the electricity, the streets and the gardens are clean again, the people on the south side still have to put everything in order. That's not fair.
Blair discovers a fallen tree lying in the middle of the street and blocked the passage. A wire was swept away and thus there is probably no electricity. Even the power is not available. You would have to be a Kook. But no, it's not that simple and probably the Pogues are so used to this life that they don't care much.
Blair has a certain goal and knows where to go. Why? Just like that.
She drives to a narrow path and sees the destination from afar. Finally. That was also enough bike for the next two months. The path ends and Blair drives across the lawn past a large tree. Then she stands in front of the Chateau. John bs home. Where he lives alone without his father, because he just ran away. Died supposedly.
She carelessly puts the bike aside and goes to the door in the hope that John b is at home. His car is nowhere to be seen, but you never know.
She knocks when she doesn't find a doorbell. It's quiet. Blair doesn't hear any noises from inside. She knocks again. This time louder and even then nothing happens. Sighing, she turns around and suddenly hears two voices. The one voice is from John b. She goes to her bicycle which is practically at the front door and looks to the side to the water where John b and also JJ stand on a boat on the jetty.
