This Way To The Egress

Shack de Creepy. Sofie is screaming for help and throwing her shoulder against the door. Which is mostly funny because, judging by all the sunlight coming through the cracks in the wallboards, she'd have better luck breaking through almost anywhere besides the door. She gives up on the door and screams some more. She's pretty good at screaming. Then Sofie kneels down on the floor and cries while the music alerts us to impending spookiness. The camera swings over her and around, and the walls shift as there's a knock at the door. Sofie stands up as Justin says, "Open the door, Apollonia."

We see a door open; Apollonia peeks out and asks, "What are you doing here? I told you to leave me alone." Justin, still off-screen, yells, "Let me in!" Apollonia jumps back as Justin smashes the door open and walks into apartment, and closes the door behind him.

Sofie stares. We get a rapetastic blipvert montage of doom. First, the same rape scene that Iris saw, complete with Iris still standing in the shot. Justin bends Apollonia over the dining table. Then we get Sofie's vision of her mother getting raped by the tattooed man. Then black-eyed Justin jumps into the camera shouting, "Tell me!" Then Ben's glimpse of the Usher walking a mile in Sofie's shoes. Apollonia slaps Sofie; Sofie slaps Apollonia. A Mason tells Sofie, "Every prophet in her house." Justin and Sofie pray together. Sofie and Libby have imaginary sex. Sofie and Ben have uncomfortable sex. Justin kisses Sofie. Ruthie sees Apollonia in a field. Young Sofie says, "Every prophet in her house." Rape-o-vision. Lodz says, "It can't be her!" Apollonia tries to kill Sofie.

Sofie screams, "Stop!" Seconded. She's back in Shack de Creepy, but she's not alone. A veiled woman sits in a chair nearby. Sofie moans, "Mama?"The woman gets up and walks toward Sofie, who tries to slide away across the floor. The woman bends over Sofie, who wails, "No!" The woman takes Sofie's chin in her hand and forces her to watch as she pulls her veil up and reveals Sofie's own face, with black eyes. Black-eyed Sofie leans in and says, "This. Is. Your. House." Sofie stares back, thinking, "I own property? Cool." We cut to a shot of Shack de Creepy as Sofie screams. She really is good at that.
