Lydia, Adam’s mother, who takes care of Auburn and Adam’s son, AJ, stands her up, so she goes to Harrison’s bar and gets drunk. Three weeks later, Auburn is at a restaurant on her birthday. They make plans for the following night, but Owen stands her up. At her apartment, Owen sees a painting Adam painted for her. They look at the confessions together, and she leaves one in the box. Auburn wants to learn more about the confessions and his art, so they go back to his studio. Owen remembers Auburn from somewhere and thinks seeing her again feels like fate. Afterward, he brings her to the bar where his best friend Harrison works and then walks her home.

She needs a lawyer but can’t afford one and acknowledges she’ll need a second job. The narrative jumps forward and Auburn is now 20, alone and miserable in Dallas. They express their eternal love for each other before Trey, Adam’s brother, pulls her away so she’ll make her flight back to Portland.
