Arabella goes back to her latest book, and Terry also checks her phone.
She begins to break down in tears, and her friends rush to her side.
Fortunately, the news is good: a new job!
The trio embraces and celebrates her joy.
At Arabellas place, Kwame and Terry talk with Ben, whos busily repotting some herbs for his garden.
Kwame asks if this new date is making him nice, which he doesnt see himself.
This sends Arabella to Susys plant-lined office, where as Arabella feared, she asks about the books progress.
She asks to meet Della for advice, and Susy denies her, curtly ending the visit.
Arabella retreats to Terrys side at a cafe, where Terry slips her cute waiter her number.
Kwame meets Nilufer again for a daytime chat to try and smooth things over.
After a short time, she angrily declares him canceled and storms off.
She returns to the table tense, and Kai offers to get the bill since she seems uncomfortable.
Terry says that shes okay, and the pair keep talking.
Hes upfront about the fact that hes trans just as Terrys food arrives.
She says, If I leave, people will think Im transphobic.
Kai asks, And youre not transphobic?
She stays, insisting shes not, and cuts into her meal.
He teases her that shes a prude.
Im not a prude, Terry says with a smile.
Ive had a threesome.
They talk about the experience more, and Kai senses somethings off.
She looks hurt and goes quiet, and Kai acknowledges her pain.
Still at the cafe waiting on Della, Arabella sees Zain and he catches up with her.
She lies, saying shes living her best life.
She emerges from her room ready for another bar watch and invites her roommate to come with her.
He declines, staying instead with his garden and watching a video on loneliness.
Kwame is enjoying a happier time with kindhearted date Tyrone (Gershwyn Eustache Jr.) at a museum exhibit.
Theres two parallel stories of forgiveness in this episode, Kwame and Arabellas, each following different trajectories.
Kwame tries to apologize to the woman he lied to, but she rejects it and remains angry.
Zain comes back into Arabellas life in an unusual way and tries to make amends for what he did.
She accepts, and the result is a renewed creative life for her.
Back at Ego Death, Arabella watches everyone intensely.
Then the episode cuts to black.
Arabella may be learning to forgive, but how will that play out now that shes found her raper?
