Moments after Alice’s (Janella Salvador) meltdown over Scott (Mark Neumann), which unintentionally triggers her trauma response, Beth (Charlie Dizon) talks to Mel (Sue Ramirez) about the situation, wondering why Alice had not said anything when they could have protected her better. Mel mentions Scott’s expression during Alice’s accusation of his abuse, noting that his heartbreak seemed evident. This does not convince Beth, who suggests that Scott may be someone good at masking the truth, and eventually comes up with a plan to inform the bodyguards and convince Alice to speak to the police. With some hesitation about Beth’s resolve, Mel also asks whether they are allowed to prevent Scott from meeting with Seth (Rhys Stevens), since the divorce and custody arrangements have not yet been completed. Mel then receives a call from a worried Scott, who wants to talk to Alice. Firmly refusing, Mel asks what he has done to Alice. Answering, Scott desperately insists that even if he tells the truth, they would not believe him—that he did not and would never hurt Alice. He adds that something is clearly wrong with Alice’s behavior, which leaves him restless, unable to fix things, and fearful for his wife and son. Mel ends the call abruptly with Alice walking by her, but not before telling Scott that if he truly cares, he should leave Alice alone and let her friends get her the help she needs. Alice reveals that she’s been going to her therapist, which surprises Mel, since Alice had previously said she was visiting an aunt—a cover for her therapy sessions. Wanting to help, Mel urges Alice to let her accompany her. On the way, Mel asks Alice about her treatments, but Alice is lost in thought, recalling her morning call with her psychologist. During their conversation, Alice mentions having returned to the backyard twice already and expresses her desperation to understand why it felt so important. While the psychologist offers to accompany Alice to the place, she insists that Alice first visit her for a mental assessment, as she needs to be emotionally prepared before confronting the site that has been triggering her trauma. Unable to bear the thought of delaying any longer, Alice brings Mel with her to the same area. Finding nothing significant despite the daylight and a clear mind, they decide to leave—until they stop between two massive trees. Staring at them thoughtfully, Mel remarks that Alice had once said that when she was five and got lost, there were two trees on the lot where she was found, which makes Alice remember that traumatic moment.Don’t miss an episode of “<a href="http://whatliesbeneath.abs-cbn.com">What Lies Beneath</a>,” weeknights on Kapamilya Channel, Kapamilya Online Live (KOL), A2Z, TV5, and <a href="https://app.iwanttfc.com/dFR6MWHAcVb">iWant</a>.
