## Episode Summary

### **Plot A: A sudden revelation and arrest**

The episode opens with Rachel, Dean and Reuben watching a news story about Dean's recent recovery. The story goes so far to show footage of the actual accident (of course shown off-screen to the viewers), which makes the friends flinch. Dean actively recalls not remembering his accident at all, while Reuben mentions that he saw it every time he closed his eyes. When Rachel and Dean agree that the current conversation has suddenly turned "dark", Dean instructs Reuben to get himself a snack from the vending machine outside. Reuben ends up taking his money in rather a depressed state as he leaves the room. Meanwhile Rachel and Dean end up engaging in a short conversation themselves, which eventually leads to the concept of Dean learning to walk again with his broken leg. Following this comment a young and attractive physiotherapist ends up entering the room and proceeds to give Dean his instructions. Dean ends up getting a little smitten about the physiotherapist, which makes Rachel visibly uncomfortable. This encourages Rachel to find an excuse to leave the room, and she finds one by offering to get Dean a tub of jello from the hospital kitchen. Dean happily accepts as Rachel walks out of the room with her front facing Dean. As she backs out of the room, she accidentally bumps into another visitor. The visitor is revealed to be Rachel's old friend "Renee", and the two share a heartfelt moment of reconciliation. The two catch up with one another briefly before Rachel mentions her task of getting Dean a tub of jello. "Renee" ends up offering Rachel a tub of jello instead; citing that she took it from another patient. Rachel appears visibly confused at the comment but she accepts the jello anyway and proceeds to go back into Dean's room. Before leaving, the two share one last remark of catching up again sometime, and they end up giving each other their phone numbers. After this Rachel finally goes back inside Dean's hotel room, while "Renee" stares in her direction in accomplishment. She also mentions the fact that her "boss" would be happy with her work to herself as she walks off in the other direction.

"Renee" enters a secret room in the hospital to find her co-worker Adam waiting for her while surrounded by electronic equipment. The two share an exchange about her encounter with Rachel and the jello, where her real identity as a US government spy is quickly revealed. Her real name is also revealed to be "Claudette" as her and Adam discuss their upcoming mission: that they were trying to find the person (Jane) who hacked into their government footage over a decade before. Claudette then discloses that she placed a hidden camera inside the cup of jello that she gave to Rachel in order to catch the person, which prompts her to load up the live feed of it onto her laptop. The live feed cuts to Rachel and Jane paying a visit to Dean and discussing his physiotherapy sessions while he eats jello. Claudette begins to grow frustrated at the "useless" footage. Meanwhile back in the feed, Dean ends up convincing Rachel to help him go to the bathroom, and she does, leaving Jane alone in the room. Suddenly Jane starts singing Jumpstart to herself, revealing her identity to Claudette and Adam. Back in the secret room, Claudette and Adam celebrate the turn of events. Claudette eventually reveals her plan to get Jane to confess her "crime" to her by using her friendship with Rachel...

Claudette runs into Rachel again as she is getting a snack out of the vending machine. She ends up showing her a trick to get more snacks out, which Rachel appears immediately impressed at. After a little while Claudette asks Rachel about potentially going out to lunch with her, however Rachel declines at first by mentioning the fact that she was stuck hanging out with Jane. Claudette expectedly doesn't view this as an issue as she invites Jane to have lunch with them also. The pair agrees to have lunch in the hospital kiosk and sets off to do so.

Claudette secretly unlocks a nearby bathroom door before Rachel and Jane finally greet her. Claudette ends up stealing Rachel's phone during an embrace, where she gets introduced to Jane for the first time. Claudette simply exclaims her ease in "remembering" Jane's name, and she instructs her and Rachel to take a seat at a table. Claudette ends up dropping Rachel's phone onto the bathroom floor. Upon sitting down, Claudette places a jello cup on the table and notices Rachel's phone being missing, so she instructs her to go look for it in the bathroom. Rachel ends up finding the phone however Claudette locks the door behind her. Meanwhile she goes to join Jane, and the two share a conversation about Jane's history with Rachel and the hacking she undertook years before. Suddenly Claudette places Jane under arrest, and yells out to several of her intelligence colleagues to undertake the order. Rachel eventually gets let out of the bathroom by a staff member to find Jane being arrested, causing her immediate concern. Claudette finally confesses her real identity to Rachel, and announces to her about her plan to lock Jane up in federal prison for life. The intelligence team ends up taking Jane away in handcuffs, and Rachel is left concerned and confused.

Dean is seen flirting with his physiotherapist when Rachel walks in on them. While appearing visibly disgusted, she instructs the physiotherapist to leave the room under "personal" reasons. She obeys, and her and Dean share a conversation, first about his relationship with the physiotherapist, then Jane's arrest and finally Claudette's identity. Rachel also brings up the concept of Claudette possibly bugging a series of jello cups. She also vows to expose this secret. Before leaving, Dean notices a bug in the jello cup that Rachel was holding, and she responds by dropping it onto the floor in fear. She then questions the hospital's cleanliness before taking off with another jello cup.

In the intelligence office, a bunch of officers along with Claudette can be seen interrogating Jane about her past. Jane constantly attempts to prove her innocence, which Claudette doesn't appear to want to hear as her colleagues offer her praise. Jane then offers to tell them her own story about why she hacked into the government system as a teenager. The scene shifts to a flashback of this story, starting with a teenage Jane enjoying herself at a Lady Gaga concert (set during the events of Wild Dream Come True). She expresses her fondness to the Rachel Woman, which encourages her to leave. Suddenly a staff member announces that Lady Gaga wouldn't be making the concert, and that he would be getting five random people out of the audience to perform instead. Jane expresses enthusiasm towards this news while most of the crowd around her doesn't approve. A little while later, following the performance of Jumpstart, Jane happily sings the song and expresses her enthusiasm towards it and the people that performed it. That night she can be seen attempting to search the names of the people with no success. Over the next few years, she can be seen gaining success by finding a secure government database with old footage of the people. She then settles down to watch the footage for the first time, beginning with Wild Pilot. The scene then shifts back to the present, where all of the intelligence are seen laughing at Jane. They also demand her arrest to take place, making her worried.

A few hours later, Rachel barges into the intelligence room and demands to prove Claudette guilty. Claudette recognises her and begins to insult her failed marriage, before Rachel expresses her belief that her whole teenage life leading up to Dean's accident was purposely planned by Claudette. She also accuses her of running over Dean. Claudette immediately calls Rachel out for bluffing before Rachel presents a jello cup to the room. She then expresses her theory of the cup being bugged, which the intelligence officers laugh at. She ends up slamming the cup onto the table, causing a prominent buzzing noise. This makes the officers grow confused and concerned, and prompts Rachel to ask Jane to pull up a laptop. With the laptop connected to a projector screen, it is eventually revealed that the jello cup was indeed bugged with a camera and microphone. Since this was Claudette's personal invention, the officers grow annoyed with her; citing that her use of it was against the agency's code of practice. They also fire her from the team and end up declaring her arrest instead, all while leaving Jane off the hook. Claudette ends up getting taken away by her former employers in handcuffs. Rachel frees Jane and the two proceed to leave the room. Jane ends up stealing the jello cup back, claiming that it would come in handy for her future wedding night. Rachel simply rolls her eyes at her.

During the closing credits, Dean asks his physiotherapist out, however she rejects him by telling him that she was already in a relationship with someone else. Dean doesn't appear to mind this, however she declares to him that it was against the law for patients to date their physiotherapists. She then offers for him to see another physiotherapist instead; promising her to be a "smoking babe". Dean turns around and adjusts his hair before the new physiotherapist walks in. She is revealed to be a middle-aged woman smoking a cigarette. Dean declines her work at first, however she demands him to listen to her. He ends up attempting to run away, however due to his broken leg he ends up falling onto the ground.

### **Plot B: The "I've Seen Everything" Moments**

#### **Alexa's**

A visibly depressed Reuben approaches the hospital snack stand and asks the cashier about what he could get with $3.58. The cashier ends up laughing in his face and tells him that he could only afford an empty cup. Alexa overhears the encounter and offers Reuben a chance to purchase anything he likes. He ends up requesting an extremely unhealthy menu item for both him and Alexa and Alexa offers to pay for them. While the cashier prepares the food, Alexa proceeds to ask Reuben about what was bothering him. He tells her about his conversation (at the beginning of Plot A) and that he was feeling traumatised by Dean's accident. Alexa assures him that everyone had stories that they would rather forget. The cashier then hands Reuben his food items and him and Alexa end up sitting at a nearby table. Reuben wolfs down his food while him and Alexa continue with their conversation from earlier. Alexa gets disgusted at Reuben's behaviour, but continues to encourage him by offering to tell him about her "I've Seen Everything" moment. She then goes into her story, displayed as a flashback and with cuts to the present occurring through out (this will not be noted during the retelling of the story).

The scene shifts to a flashback of an eight year old girl (presumed to be Alexa's sister Savannah) playing with a bunch of dolls outside while a five year old girl (Alexa's sister Victoria) watching on. Victoria insists on playing with the older girl's dolls, however the older girl proceeds to insult her and shoo her off. She also tells her that a particular doll, named Shelly, had deep sentimental value to her and that she was afraid that Victoria would damage her. Victoria threatens to tell their mother, however the older girl ignores her and goes back inside the house; taking most of her dolls with her but accidentally leaving Shelly behind. After a little while another girl (presumed to be Alexa) comes outside and approaches Victoria to ask her about what was bothering her. Victoria tells her about her ideal with Shelly, where it is quickly revealed that the first girl was actually Alexa and the second Savannah. Savannah continues to comfort Victoria and eventually notices Shelly on the ground. She then encourages Victoria to take Shelly without Alexa's knowledge. She does as the two girls share an embrace.

A little bit later in the day, Victoria is seen playing with Shelly by herself in her bedroom when its head ends up breaking off. Victoria scrambles to hide the doll. Meanwhile in Alexa and Savannah's shared bedroom, Alexa struggles to find Shelly in her toy box and proceeds to ask Savannah about it. Savannah offers her a few excuses before eventually exposing Victoria. Alexa rushes to Victoria's room to ask her about the whereabouts of Shelly. Victoria attempts to lie at first before finally caving by presenting a decapitated Shelly to her. Alexa responds by falling to her knees and asking her about the whereabouts of Shelly's head. Victoria then presents Shelly's head from out of her underwear. Alexa asks for it back, however Victoria drops it on the floor, pulls her pants down, and proceeds to pee on it.

Back in the present, Reuben acknowledges Alexa's courage to tell him her story. She then commends herself; citing that sometimes her memories weren't perfect. The scene then shifts back to the flashback, this time an eight year old Savannah enters the room with a teenage boyfriend. Savannah mentions her time on the basketball team before the two share a conversation about her boyfriend's parents' fortunes. The scene shifts back to the present, where Reuben and Alexa continue with their conversation from earlier. Reuben offers Alexa her share of the food, however Alexa encourages him to keep if for himself out of disgust.

#### **Blanket's**

Alexa and Reuben find Blanket in the trauma waiting room and approach her. Blanket questions Reuben's depressive state, and Alexa recounts to her the events leading up to that moment. She then asks Blanket whether or not she wanted to share her "I've Seen Everything" story, and she does. Just like the first one, the story is displayed as a flashback with cuts to the present occurring through out (which will not be noted either).

The scene shifts to a flashback of a teenage Blanket entering the gym to try out for the cheerleading squad. Blanket (named "Olivia" at the time) approaches the cheerleading coach and introduces herself. The coach simply laughs at her before eventually giving her a chance by asking her to do a "tumble". The coach also reminds Blanket to watch for the knitting club that was in the middle of a meeting on the other side of the gym. Blanket listens to her advice and attempts a tumble, however it goes horribly wrong and she ends up falling into a blanket from the knitting club. The coach immediately calls her out, referring to her by the name of "Blanket" for the first time. She walks off laughing as Blanket is left humiliated in front of the knitting club. The knitting club refuse to laugh at her however, and begin bonding with her by referring to her as "Blanket" too. She immediately becomes good friends with the group.

A couple of years later, Blanket arrives at the name registry with her knitting club friends in order to legally change her first name to "Blanket". When she makes this request, the clerk declines her by calling her name stupid. When she appears offended, the clerk offers for her to simply use it as a nickname, which Blanket happily takes on board. After a little while, a man with a severed arm rushes into the name registry demanding medical attention. The clerk reminds him that the hospital was actually located next door. The man also asks if anyone had a blanket he could use to cover up his bleeding.

Back in the present, Blanket and Alexa once again attempt to cheer Reuben up. He proceeds to get up to "take a walk" instead.

#### **Dean's/The Nurse's**

Dean is seen complaining to his nurses about his lack of plastic straws when Alexa, Blanket and Reuben enter his room. While Blanket coddles Reuben, Alexa tells Dean about their current situation and asks him about whether or not he had a "I've Seen Everything" moment. He proceeds to tell them a brief one from that morning, where shown through a brief flashback, displays Dean walking on on a patient masturbating in the bathroom. Back in the present, the friends end up asking him about any other stories he had. Dean proceeds to list a bunch of traumatising things that have happened to him instead. After a little while, a nurse enters the room to give Dean a delivery of a box of plastic straws. He immediately gets excited at the sight; reminding Reuben that the "happy" moments in his life always make the tough times worth it and that his past didn't define the way he was. Alexa proceeds to ask the nurse about her "I've Seen Everything" moment, and she answers by recounting her own. Through a brief flashback, the nurse can be seen eating and talking on the phone on the balcony of a building when a man jumps off in front of her. Back in the present, the nurse provides Reuben with some support. Dean ends up asking her about the attractive physiotherapist before she leaves. Reuben ends up thanking his friends for their stories and comments, and finally agrees to seek professional psychological help in the coming days. Reuben then leaves the room, closely followed by Blanket. Alexa and Dean are left alone for a brief moment, which appears visibly awkward. Alexa ends up faking a phone call to give herself an excuse to leave the room also. Dean cites the moment as being "bad" to himself (in reference to the "good" moment conversation from earlier).
