Max and Elizabeth travel to the donor’s house but are unable to elicit cooperation from them.
Iggy is awake and with Lilly. He attempts to replicate the wedding with dolls. Lilly inquires about Iggy, her husband, but she is only a child.
Max receives a phone call from the groom, the man they were traveling to save, who was preparing to marry the little girl at a child’s wedding. The donor arrives at the airport, eager to assist.

Iggy claims it was a smoke bomb planted by Lilly’s 15-year-old older brother in an attempt to save her. According to Iggy, there is no rule against this type of marriage, and no one will be punished for it. Lilly, that is.
Iggy pays a visit to the kids since he is grieving over Lilly. Lauren visits her sister’s apartment, where she apologises and expresses gratitude for her efforts to make amends.
Floyd visits his father and informs him that he may be bipolar and has been dealing with it for the majority of his life. He assures him that nothing he did was his fault.
He would like him to go to the hospital to be tested so that they can discuss treatment options. He refuses to do anything; all he wants is an apology from his mother because he claims what he did was not his fault.
