Part 2, Chapter 16 Summary

Content Warning: This section of the guide features depictions of death by suicide, and physical and emotional abuse.

Trey can’t believe the destruction at his client Marlo’s house. He is shaken by the fact that Wes’s parents posted his bail, endangering Marlo. Though Wes has been arrested again, Trey fears he will secure another release. Trey’s mother Corinne and Owen come to tidy up Marlo’s house.

Suddenly keen to see Sonya, Trey drives to Poole Manor. However, his demeanor is guarded, making Sonya suspect he is hiding something from her. He finally tells her about Marlo, feeling guilty that he didn’t anticipate what happened. Sonya reminds him that he got Wes jailed on domestic violence charges, but it bothers her that Trey kept his worries from her, as if she needed protecting. Trey promises to share his troubles with Sonya, just like she shares hers with him. Later, music emanates from the music room, as if beckoning Trey and Sonya inside. The victrola plays a romantic tune on its own—the handiwork not of Clover but some other benevolent spirit. Sonya and Trey dance.
