Stroybrooke. Present-day. 

ERICA'S EYES WERE still wide the day after she had found out the Kathryn Nolan was indeed still alive after she had gotten a call from Emma telling her to get to Granny's as quick as possible because she had something to show the other blonde that she wasn't going to believe and if Erica hadn't seen Kathryn with her own eyes as well as Emma she may have thought it was a figment of her own imagination and that she was dreaming so she could set her mom free

But no it was real and Kathryn Nolan was sitting right in front of her 

Her phone buzzed and for the second time since finding the dirty blonde-haired women, she allowed herself a moment to look away and for her eyes to instead settle onto her phone as she read the text message she had just received 

"Sorry about that" Erica apologises to Kathryn before pocketing her phone and turning her attention onto her as the Sheriff frowns slightly and her voice takes on a slightly lighter tone "But now that your awake, I need to know do you remember any...

"Sorry about that" Erica apologises to Kathryn before pocketing her phone and turning her attention onto her as the Sheriff frowns slightly and her voice takes on a slightly lighter tone "But now that your awake, I need to know do you remember anything?"

"I don't know much" Kathryn replied "Um, I was in a car accident and I remember the airbag going off and the next thing I knew I was in the dark, in some basement, I didn't see anyone but there was food and water and then I guess I was drugged" Kathryn looks over at Dr wale who was tending to her charts for conformation 

He nods "Yes we're still trying to flush that out of your system"

"And then I woke up in a field on the edge of town and I started walking" She tells the rest of the story to Erica "That was it"

"You saw no one? Didn't hear a voice? Smell perfume? Cologne? Anything?" Erica asks 

Kathryn shook her head "Nothing. No. I'm sorry, I wish I could help ... Especially since ... While I was gone, you thought I was what dead ... But why?" Her eyes widen slightly as she says the words out loud, not quite understanding how anyone thought the young woman was indeed dead 

"The D.N.A on the heart we found matched yours" Erica tells her softly 

"Downstairs everyone's getting grilled on who could have docked the test results" Informs Dr Whale with a half laugh which just made Kathryn more uncomfortable which Erica seemed to sense as she gave the doctor a sharp look to get him to shut up before turning back to the blonde 

"We think someone was trying to frame Mary Margret"

"But why?" Kathryn asked before clearing her throat "I mean who would do that?"

Uneasy glances were shared between the three for a moment as they tried to think who exactly would try to frame Mary Margret.

Storybrooke. Present day.

The door to Mary Margret's apartment opened again to reveal yet another person coming to join in the celebration and the party that was welcoming back Mary Margret into society seen as she was cleared of Kathryn Nolan's murder. Erica didn't want to host the party considering she still had work to do but her sister ended up convincing her to go along with it and host the party with her, so she did
