The quaint charm of Riverdale transforms into a landscape of uncertainty as Herman, determined to unearth the truth, confronts Anastasia with questions that demand answers.
Pattie had a nightmare. In it, she was screaming bloody murder, writhing like a possessed being, kicking up a storm with her feet, and flailing her arms to keep anyone from coming close.
Anastasia tried to soothe Pattie but ended up getting her face scratched up by Pattie's frantic clawing. Despite the pain, Anastasia held Pattie close, whispering gently, "Don't be scared, I'm here, sweetie..."
Hearing this gentle voice and smelling this comforting scent, Pattie gradually calmed down and drifted back to sleep. Anastasia held Pattie tightly, saying, "This kid must have been scared witless to have such nightmares."
Watching the situation unfold, Monica was also shocked. "Poor kid," she murmured, her heart aching for Pattie.
Anastasia began to rock Pattie gently, humming a tune while her hand patted Pattie's shoulder. Monica was taken aback by this sight. She even mistook Anastasia for Pattie's mom. The resemblance between Anastasia and Pattie was uncanny.
"Ding-dong, ding-dong..."
The doorbell rang. Anastasia looked up at Monica. "Monica, could you get the door for me?"
"Sure," Monica said, turning to open the door.
Standing at the door was a man with an honest face. He smiled and said, "Is my daughter here? I heard you guys found her."
Monica gave him a once-over and said, "Hold on. The kid is sleeping."
After saying this, Monica went back inside to tell Anastasia. When Anastasia heard that the child's father had come, she came out with the sleeping Pattie in her arms. The man looked ordinary, dressed in work clothes, likely a construction worker.
Seeing Pattie, the man smiled and said, "That's my daughter, Pattie. We've been going out of our minds looking for her since she went missing."
Anastasia asked, "Do you live in this neighborhood?"
"I live right here in this neighborhood, in building six. My name is Leo," the man introduced himself sincerely. "She's asleep, huh? Let me hold her, thanks a million for finding her. We thought she'd run out of the neighborhood. There are so many cars outside, it would be a disaster if anything happened."
