Content Warning: This section discusses suicide and drug abuse.
Finn attends her own funeral, impressed by the size of the crowd. Ann sits rigidly in the front row between Aubrey and her fiancé, Ben. Bob and Natalie attend, but not Karen, which angers Finn. Mo arrives last, and her dad pushes her to the front in her wheelchair. She’ll return to the hospital after the service. Finn sits beside Charlie on the balcony for a while, happy to be near him. The church’s minister conducts the program, and numerous people speak highly of Finn, including Mo and Aubrey.
Chloe is improving; she eats, goes to the bathroom independently, and talks to the psychiatrist. However, Finn knows Chloe is aiming only to get pain medication, some of which she hides when the nurse isn’t looking. Chloe also writes and revises her farewell notes. Finn tries to warn Ann about Chloe contemplating suicide, but when Finn speaks to her mom, Ann wakes up screaming. Finn doesn’t visit her again.
Ann enters the room that Finn and Chloe shared to prepare for Chloe’s return from the hospital. Ann moves all of Finn’s belongings into large garbage bags and dumps them out the window and onto the law.
