Avery’s father calls her with news from Chambers: The tip line got a call about a body. He knows no other information and tells her not to tell her mother yet. Avery thinks it may be Max. To distract herself, Avery goes for ice cream with Sam, but the conversation with him feels like a bad fit. She breaks up with Sam.
