Rory hasn’t heard from Soline in days and solicits help from Daniel, Soline’s attorney, in hopes of reaching her. Soline finally resurfaces, but she feels it’s best that Rory stays away. Daniel explains that Soline had numbed herself after the fire and made peace with her life, but then Rory came along, and she stopped being numb. Now, she’s gone into hiding again. Daniel encourages Rory to focus on the gallery and not push Soline to reconcile, and Rory feels miserable at the thought of losing Soline’s friendship. She develops a plan to show Soline how much she means to her and reaches out to a contact, Doug Glennon, at The Boston Globe for help with tracking down a photo of Anson. She explains to the reporter that Anson was an AFS worker lost in World War II, and she wants to frame a picture of him to give to Soline as a token of their friendship. She gives the reporter Owen and Cynthia’s information as well and then promises herself she will give Soline space until she can mail her a letter and picture of Anson.
