When Erica goes home that night, she finds herself in Dr. Tom's office, and he is beating the pulp out of a punching bag. He tells her to take a load off and gives her the glove and she takes out all her anger on the bag. He asks her about "Dad's Car." Erica tells is how when her parents went out of town, her and Leo borrowed their dad's car to pick up alcohol and have a party. They didn't put the car in the garage that night, and it got trashed, and their father yelled at them, and said something to Ethan that he couldn't take back. When he tells her to punch the bag again, she goes back to that day they got the alcohol and she punches Leo in the back.
This time around, Erica makes sure to put the car in the garage. During the party, Leo and his friend Robin are charging people for entrance, and some drug dealers come claiming that Robin owes them money. That night, after the party, they hear noises and find the car, still trashed, in the garage. When they try to get it fixed, the mechanic says it will take two days and $2,000, so they drive back home to see their parents home early, so they decide to go to Canada's Wonderland to get the money from Robin, who works there.
***Let me just say before we go on, that I live in Toronto, and go to Wonderland all the time, and if this session took place 10 years or so ago, then they made some huge mistakes, such as showing the ride Behemoth in the background, even though it was only built last year, and showing the re-painted tracks of Dragon Fire, and especially showing the new logo for the park.
Robin agrees to pay them the money when he's done his shift, so Erica and Leo go on the rides Wild Beast and the Spinovator, and when they get back to the parking lot, they discover the car got stolen. When they wait by the waterfall for some information they can go on, Brenda tells Erica she thinks that Leo and Robin are the ones who trashed it and stole it. Erica thinks it's crazy, but when she finds the keys in his pocket, she realizes the truth.
When they get home, their dad still yells at Leo, and she returns to reality, where she doesn't understand the point of the session. When Erica tries to apologize to Kai for how she flipped out at him about dating Sam, he thinks she is just jealous. Erica asks Brent if he's really stealing her book from Julianne, and he says that he has, and she should be on his side, but Erica tells him that Julianne gave her her first book deal, and she isn't going against that. When Erica goes for her next case study, it's Dr. Tom, and through some random innuendo's she realizes that she needs to see past what's in front of her to the truth, and she goes back to Kai to tell him that she WAS jealous.
