Inti is a tracker and knows how to bury Stuart’s body so that it will not be found. At home, she finds Aggie asleep in bed. She has had her period and bled on the sheets. Exhausted, Inti washes her and places a sanitary pad in her underwear.
Duncan comes to the house, and he and Inti have an awkward conversation. Each is suspicious of the other’s whereabouts the previous night, but neither will admit it. Duncan knows that Stuart is missing; Inti knows that when he realizes Stuart is dead, she will become a suspect. He invites her to a dinner party, but Inti is reluctant to accept.
When he leaves, Inti remembers that her and Aggie’s cycles are usually synchronized. A test from the pharmacy confirms that she is pregnant.
Duncan brings Inti into the station to question her about Stuart’s disappearance. He asks about her whereabouts the previous night and her involvement in the wolf project. After establishing her motive for killing Stuart, he digs into Inti’s past, attempting to unearth the reason for her protectiveness of Lainey. She does not tell him about her sister’s rape. Instead, she tells him about her mirror-touch synesthesia, which makes it nearly impossible for her to harm someone, let alone kill them.
