Joan Foster is alone in Terremoto, where she goes after faking her death. She feels sad about leaving behind her husband Arthur. She wishes he would come rescue her. She is crying over what she has lost, but becomes afraid when she realizes it was a bad idea to come to this town because people might remember her.

Joan wants to start a new life because it was too complicated to live a double life as Arthur's wife and her secret identity as the romance novelist, Louise Delacourt.
