Alone in the car, Louise asks Tanner if she and August had sex, since Tanner seems in an unusually good mood. Tanner says that they didn’t, and Louise questions why. When Tanner asks why Louise gave her the gun, she said that it was for protection, because even though August seems nice, one can never know. She also mentions that her mother kept a leg of lamb in the freezer to potentially bludgeon a man, even though she never used it on her stepfather. 

The trio arrive back at the care facility at nine o’clock. They check in to visit George and scan their IDs, then head back. Louise notes the number of security cameras, which George mentioned in the phone call back in Atlanta, and worries about how she will smuggle George out. When they reach George’s room, Louise opens the door to reveal a thin, older woman. George recognizes Louise as Patty immediately, and Louise almost cries with relief at George recognizing her and hearing her best friend say her real name. Tanner is shocked by the revelation that George is a woman. Louise tells Tanner that she never said George was a man and Tanner just assumed so, which is ironic given that Tanner’s name is also gender neutral.
