About this episode

Grace returns to a world she thought she escaped, while Bea deals with quirky coworkers and Rhys explores the night.

Grace has made a deal that she and Bea can't back out of: A return to Emiel under Lennox's endlessly watching eye. Everything is getting too close, everything is starting to strain, and Grace is now returning to the world she thought she had escaped from. Bea is experiencing some real flighty coworkers. And Rhys? Well, he's out there listening to the siren call of the night, the sound of smooth jazz leading him onward onto the rain-slick streets, and taking the chance to make his own fun while left to his own devices...
