Grass hill at dusk. HANNAH alone. She finds a stone circle in the ground and discovers the pendant/locket. She opens it — working hinge, something inside. A discovery that will change everything.
LOOP RESET. Coffee shop. HANNAH sits back down — LILY is mid-sentence, still talking. Hannah has returned from the hill. She sits quietly, shaken but processing.
Cemetery. Nathalie's funeral. JULIA stands graveside in black. SIMON beside her. A MINISTER speaks (V.O. or O.S.). Mourners clustered behind. Grey light, still air.
Student dorm room. HANNAH and NAOMI wake up together — tangled sheets, morning light. A university timetable is taped to the wall. Intimate, student-era flashback.
Therapist's office. JULIA alone in a chair, talking. The therapist is O.S. (never seen). Julia talks about entropy, pillboxes, checklists. Monologue-style — single camera on Julia.
Campus café. HANNAH and JOSH sit together. He returns her student ID that she dropped. She writes her phone number on a napkin. A sweet, low-key first connection.
Inside the café. HANNAH and JULIA sit together. "Tabitha paid." The timeline has shifted — details are different. JANA is visible in the background behind the counter.
LOOP RESET. Coffee shop. HANNAH realises the pendant is the anchor — the key to controlling the loops. LILY keeps talking, oblivious. Hannah processes the revelation.
Hotel room, morning. HANNAH wakes and finds JULIA. The alarm clock reads 7:57 (two minutes later than in 4.18 — a plot-critical difference). The phone did not ring. Something has changed.
