The Other Mrs.

Sadie has lost some time again but decides not to tell Will. She also decides to break into the house next door to see if anyone has been there. She recognizes the room from her dream and remembers having an out-of-body experience in the room. She tries to report that someone has been staying in the vacant house, but her phone is dead. She is so frightened by the noise Jeffrey’s snow shovel is making that she urinates in her pants.

Jeffrey wants to discuss Morgan with Sadie and tells her that threatening notes were found hidden under their mattress. He is adamant that Courtney is not a killer. Both he and Sadie realize the notes point to someone else menacing Morgan.

Details of Sadie’s mental-health condition are discussed in this section, as well as her awareness of it. As a teen, she was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and placed on a series of medications, none of which seemed to help.

Sadie betrays Imogen by telling Will about the teenager’s role in Alice’s suicide, but Will does not believe her.
