(Not my daughter, not my problem.
God, Tony is a dick.)
We also learn what, exactly, the relationship is between Eunice and Teri.
When she asks if Teri does, Teri responds, I dont regret it.
I just wish it had never happened.
Eunice looks disappointed, and Ill admit that I am, too.
Meanwhile, Alyssa and James are learning that they dont do so well without each other.
In a flashback, we learn what happened to Jamess mom.
Unfortunately, she did commit suicide in front of him, when he was 6.
When the officers back is turned, James makes a run for it.
She doesnt get too far, though, before she sees the little missing girl.
Knowing it will lead to her getting into further trouble, Alyssa brings her back to the shop anyway.
The security guard takes Alyssa into the back and gives her something to eat.
He asks if her boyfriend gave her those bruises, and if she needs help.
She tells him it wasnt her boyfriend, but doesnt offer any more details.
The guard decides to let Alyssa go, and she brusquely leaves.
On her way out, Alyssa starts wandering around and realizes that she misses James.
She goes back to the cafe, where James is sitting exactly where she left him.
Not the weird hand, she tells him.
It is nice that there are kind adults in this world.
They provide glimmers of hope that James and Alyssa dont need to grow up to be completely awful.
She is clearly afraid of Tony in the same way that Alyssa is reflexively afraid of the security guard.
