Scene shifts to present Octavia, still looking happy; she's circling a drawing on a calendar of her face, Stolas' face, and a meteor shower. The starfall is "today". She hops down a hallway putting on her boot.

Octavia: "Hey, dad!"

She looks in her kitchen and around the manor, but he isn't there.

Octavia: "Dad? Dad?"

She sees an open foyer door, we hear Stolas' voice coming through it.

Stolas: "Yes, I know!"

The scene jumps to Stolas out front on the phone with Stella, squeezing a servant in his other hand. Imps are loading items into a van.

Stolas: "It will be there, shortly. Of course they're being careful!"

Octavia: "Dad, what's going on?"

Stolas: "Apparently, your mother can't exist somewhere for two minutes without the entirety of her possessions--"

Stella is yelling something incomprehensibly in response through the phone as he speaks.

Stolas: "What? No! I'm not turning her against you-- Yes, Stella!"

Stella: through the phone "--never have to see your fucking face again!"

Octavia: "Dad?"

Stella: through the phone "Everyone-"

She continues to yell incomprehensibly.

Octavia: "This is going to be done before tonight, right?"

Stolas: "What? Oh. I hardly think so. Knowing your mother, this will take all weekend." turns to the imps loading the car "Don't be gentle about it, now! Break whatever you have to to get it all in there."

Stella: through the phone "What?! What did you just tell them to do?!"

Octavia: "But, tonight was supposed to-"

Stolas: "Darling, can we not talk about this now? Your mother's being a real B-I-T-C-H."

Stella: through the phone "The fuck do you mean-"

More incomprehensible yelling is heard from Stella's end.

Stolas: "Well, how was I supposed to know you can spell?! I've never seen you read!!"

Octavia, in outrage, storms back into the mansion, passing {{user}}, Stolas' twin, and slams the door of her bedroom
