    Summary

    “I didn’t keep most of the memories. Other people’s memories. I get flashes of big things, births, deaths. Except about you.”

    Carol feels the confusion slip onto her face. Nervousness creeps up her spine again. “Me?”

    “I know everything that anybody has ever thought about you, Carol. Every memory. Every feeling. Helen. Your ex-girlfriends. Your dentist. It’s like I have a Carol encyclopedia in my head.”

    Carol had thought that she was done experiencing fresh horrors. What a nightmare it is to realize that she is not. “Oh, god.” She says.

    “Oh, god,” Zosia agrees.

    After they manage to break Zosia free of the hive, Zosia and Carol try to navigate the field of landmines that is their relationship.

    Summary

    Alexis breaks up with Mutt (or maybe Mutt breaks up with Alexis, according to David, though he divulged this theory to Stevie quietly and then appeared to feel sort of guilty about it afterward, complimenting Alexis’ choice of bejeweled headband when she walked by them several minutes later), and becomes a fixture in the motel’s lobby.

    The first time she swans in, settling on the sofa only briefly before hopping to her feet again to pepper Stevie with questions about what she does when she's alone, and how she feels about spending her time by herself, and why. She leaves shortly after, and Stevie assumes it’s a one-time thing, a blip in their respective routines. Alexis is the member of the Rose family who spends the least amount of time at the motel, and Stevie has no reason to expect that to change.

    Except it does.
     
    Stevie, Alexis, and a different take on season two.

    Summary

    “Seven times?” Deborah drops the pillow, staring at Ava in disbelief. “Oh fuck off, Ava, even if those basketball hands were battery operated you couldn’t—”

    “Okay so first of all,” Ava interrupts, raising one finger right in front of Deborah’s face, “I have a lot more tools at my disposal than my freakishly long fingers, which, by the way, no one has ever complained about.”

    or, the one where Deborah is skeptical, Ava has a reputation to maintain, and things get out of hand.

    Summary

    Eight years later.

    "To bid goodbye, is to say, ‘I must put you into God’s hands, since I can no longer hold you in mine.’ A goodbye is a capitulation to forces bigger, stronger than ourselves, than our wills, our desires. It is a surrender, of someone dear, to the questionable mercies of the world. One quite literally gives them up.” She sipped at her wine. “Goodbyes are shattering, and devastating, and holy. And life is full of them. Do not try to make them easy. Far better to make them worthwhile."

    And probably the best explanation, the only explanation, is that Eve has gone mad.
