Lee has always been a master of manipulation, but her latest move might be one step too far. For months, she’s been keeping Luna alive in secret, hidden away in a private medical facility, sedated and monitored with the hope that one day, Luna could awaken. The world believes Luna is dead, the victim of a tragic hospital incident. But Lee’s not ready to let go. She has far too much invested in her daughter’s future, and she’s prepared to do whatever it takes to keep Luna—and herself—out of danger.

Lee’s decision to reinvent Luna as a “long-lost twin sister” is bold, but also risky. Once Luna regains consciousness, she’s no longer Luna Matsuda. She’s now Nova, a supposed twin who was separated from her at birth in a secret adoption orchestrated by Poppy. The details are carefully constructed: fabricated adoption papers, falsified records, and even a well-curated digital footprint. It’s the perfect cover story… or so Lee hopes.

The test of Lee’s plan comes when she finally drives Luna—still weak and confused—from her medical facility to Finn’s clinic. There, she introduces her as Nova Matsuda, Luna’s twin, just arriving in Los Angeles to discover her biological family. Finn, however, is skeptical. He stares at the woman who looks exactly like Luna, and though Lee explains the adoption twist—something even Poppy didn’t know about—Finn remains unconvinced. “I didn’t know Luna had a twin,” he says, examining Nova closely. “You look exactly like her.”

Lee reassures him, but Nova, in her fragile state, cannot help but betray her anxiety. Her hands tremble, and her wide eyes reflect the confusion of someone who’s been thrust into an unimaginable situation. Yet, she plays her part, whispering nervously, “I’ve wanted to meet my family for so long.”

Back home, Finn’s suspicions continue to gnaw at him. He replays the moment over and over, unable to shake the feeling that something isn’t quite right. Is this really Luna’s twin, or is it Luna herself, back from the dead, disguised under a new name? Finn’s doubts are growing, and it’s only a matter of time before he starts connecting the dots. But Lee is watching him closely, and the pressure of keeping her secret weighs heavily on her.

While Lee is consumed with paranoia, unsure how long she can keep up the act, others like Stephie are blissfully unaware. Her primary focus is protecting her children and moving forward with her life. She’s too distracted by other matters to question the sudden appearance of a long-lost family member.

But Sheila, ever the opportunist, might not be so easy to fool. She’s been on the lookout for any sign of weakness from Lee, and the sudden appearance of Nova raises her suspicions. Sheila isn’t motivated by justice or concern for anyone’s well-being—she’s always thinking of how she can leverage the situation to her advantage. If Sheila catches a whiff of the truth, it’s only a matter of time before she exploits it. And if she does, Lee’s entire plan could come crashing down.

As Luna begins to regain her strength, the questions she faces grow more pressing. Can she really continue to live her life as someone else? Is there a future for her as Nova, or would it be safer to disappear altogether, leaving behind the life she knew? The longer she plays along with Lee’s deception, the more her own identity slips away. Yet, there’s also the possibility that exposing everything—the truth of her survival and the lies Lee has been feeding everyone—could bring freedom… at a terrible cost.

Lee’s fears are becoming reality. She knows Finn is getting closer to uncovering the truth. His instinct is to investigate further, and Lee watches him closely, knowing that one wrong move could bring everything crashing down.

But the most dangerous player in this game might be Sheila. With her sharp instincts and willingness to manipulate any situation for her own benefit, Sheila could be the one to shatter the carefully constructed web of lies Lee has spun. The truth is out there, and it’s only a matter of time before someone connects the dots.

Lee may have pulled off a massive deception, but how long can she keep the secret of Luna’s survival? Will Finn uncover the truth before it’s too late? And when Sheila gets wind of the deception, will she expose it to gain leverage over Lee? The stakes have never been higher, and the drama is only just beginning.
