She starts to be followed by someone who wants to kill her and after being helped by a girl who met in a gas store while escaping she has been told that people are techno-zombies and either want just to film her or want to kill her. Towards the end of the episode we found out that it is all part of a play, she actually took part of the murder of the girl she thought was her daughter, she was pushed to believe it was real as form of punishment.
