A tattoo of a Amanda forms on Lydia's arm. Lydia tells Edgar that this is her daughter, and that she is in trouble. Lydia says she left her daughter at her sister's house when Lydia was a teenager. Lydia believes that because the tattoo is surrounded by fire and moving by itself, she feels that something is happening to her daughter. Lydia then says she needs to call her daughter.
