Part 4, Chapter 12 Summary: “Libby”

Libby breaks out of the room where Ezra has been holding her. It’s in a motel, which is now on fire as the result of her power. She’s in a strange industrial area, and quickly tries to put distance between herself and the fire. Although she’s angry with Ezra, she still hopes that the police get to him before the fire gets out of control. She isn’t sure how she was able to use her powers in the room, which Ezra had put wards around to prevent, but is exhausted and weak from using her power. She’s also angry at herself for trusting Ezra—and people in general.

She finds a gas station and assesses herself in the bathroom mirror. When she asks the cashier to use her phone, she directs Libby to a pay phone outside, which strikes her as odd. The cashier is reading a newspaper, which is also strange, but tells her that she’s in Los Angeles. Then, she sees the date on the newspaper: August 19, 1989. The cashier is concerned because Libby’s nose is bleeding, but when the police drive by, she shows Libby a back door to escape through.
