Libby

After going home to her Manhattan apartment, Libby has an encounter with a member of the Forum seeking to recruit her. Libby angrily rejects the woman’s offer when she implies that, had Libby had access to more knowledge, she might have been able to save her sister (Katherine died from a degenerative disease when Libby was 13). She fights with Ezra, who says he is worried about her safety. She likes her independence and resents his protectiveness. She leaves in a rush and goes back to the house, where she stumbles upon Tristan and Parisa having a conversation and drinking by the fire. Both were accosted by members of the Forum and refused their invitations. The three of them start discussing Parisa’s past, with Libby questioning her use of her power to have sex with strangers and Parisa arguing that she knows how to get what she wants with no strings attached. To make her point, she successfully convinces Libby to let go of her inhibitions and have a threesome with Tristan and herself.

Callum

When Callum comes home, he runs into a very hungover Tristan who appears uncomfortable around Libby.
