Victoria’s business takes off as rich couples treat her as a diviner. Her influence causes changes in the flower market, and other florists mimic her. She constantly thinks about her daughter but does not seek her out because she feels it would be selfish to do so. She also reflects on the fire and how it changed everyone’s lives, especially in taking her away from Elizabeth. Victoria goes through a bout of depression and locks herself away for a week. Marlena takes over the business during this time. When Victoria emerges, Marlena offers to take her to see the baby, but she refuses. Later, she writes a letter to Elizabeth containing her confession, putting Bloom as her return address.

Victoria sees Elizabeth’s old gray truck drive by Message. She rejects a bride whose fiancé does not come to their flower meeting. Minutes later, Victoria sees Renata walking down the street with an envelope. The two sit on the curb while Victoria holds the envelope and explains her history. Renata is kind and reflects on how much Victoria has grown since they first met. She compliments Victoria and her ability with flowers, comforting her before asking her to open the letter.
