One year before the present, Brecia observes James and Meghan on their date. James drugs Meghan and coaxes her into letting him drive her home; Brecia follows along with them anxiously. She watches as James drives to a remote location in the mountains, forces Meghan to walk into the woods with him, and then strangles her with her scarf. Brecia is momentarily confused when Meghan seems to stand up and run away and calls out after her, not realizing that Meghan is dead. Horrified and not knowing what else to do, Brecia goes with James as he makes his way home.
In the present, now that the police are officially investigating Skye’s disappearance, they begin tracing her cellphone, and this leads them to the wooded area where she was killed. Skye intervenes to direct a police officer named Officer Willis so that he locates her body. Skye stays at the site while her body is inspected; she isn’t present when her parents are notified that her body has been found. She eventually returns to her home, where her parents are grief-stricken and in shock.
