Chapter 19 Summary

Everyone emerges from sleep hungover and grumpy. Abby appears especially angry with Cassie, but she is unkind to everyone. Daniel is staring out the window while Rafe continues to sleep on the sofa, and Justin comes downstairs complaining that he is in pain and is convinced he has the flu. Cassie feels claustrophobic and longs to be away from the people in the house, so she covers her head and goes back to sleep on the chair until she can leave for her nightly walk.

Daniel waits for her in her room later and asks straight out who she is. Cassie signals she is wearing a mic, and they speak in code until she can remove it. She shows him her badge revealing she is Cassie Maddox, and after placing the mic near music, Daniel and Cassie go outside and out of the surveillance view. Cassie asks when he knew she was not Lexie, and Daniel tells her the onions were a big clue, but it was the kiss the night before that confirmed it. He says Lexie would have not reacted to it the way Cassie did because she was incapable of thinking ahead about consequences. He could tell Cassie has a boyfriend by the way she looked startled for a moment and decided to stop.
