Carrie takes Lo to the Old Manor hotel, near West Tyning, explaining that she came here with the owner of the Aurora, Richard. This name upsets Lo, and Carrie says he can’t hurt them now. Carrie asks Lo to check in for them while she waits outside. Lo mentally contrasts how this hotel displays wealth with how the Grand Hotel du Lac does. A man named Cavendish checks her in and takes her to the room Carrie reserved and is paying for.
After Cavendish leaves, Carrie comes to the suite. She disguises herself as Angela Darnwell, a blonde Californian, so that she and Lo can get dinner at the hotel’s restaurant. They arrive separately. When they’re both seated, they drink champagne and toast to Carrie’s escape. Carrie toasts to Lo being brilliant and her best friend.
In the morning, Carrie admits that Marcus restricted her eating. She takes a bath while Lo gets breakfast. As Lo eats, her mother, Pam, calls to say that she fell in the grocery store and that the manager is calling an ambulance to take her to the hospital. Lo offers to meet her there, but Pam insists that it’s nothing and that Lo delay coming to see her.
