Against her better judgement, she decides to hire this person. Lucy’s a big believer in second chances and wants to see the best in this person.

The good vibes from the reunion spreads to the whole town, and all is well until Lucy finds a local business owner, who was heavily involved in the reunion event, stone cold dead in their pawn shop.
