Episode Summary:
In this haunting chapter of Blades of Glass, Sunday morning dawns bright and deceivingly innocent. Children laugh in the courtyard, coffee brews quietly in a Lewisville townhouse, and the trauma of the previous night simmers just beneath the surface. But peace is fleeting. As Willow tries to ground herself after a terrifying dream—and a deeply unsettling encounter with a man who seems more shadow than substance—a quiet dread creeps into the waking world. Meanwhile, a mysterious drifter watches, always watching. The line between memory and nightmare fractures further, and it’s clear: something unnatural has been set in motion.

In This Episode:

• 🕯️ Willow wrestles with a dream so vivid it feels like a memory—but it’s from his perspective.
• 💀 A dark presence lurks near the apartment complex, observing, remembering, and judging.
• ☕ A quiet cup of coffee between friends masks the unease growing in Willow’s mind.
• 🔪 Elsewhere, a mutilated victim is found. The clues are few. The danger is not.
• 🌞 And the morning? It’s just a little too perfect.

Themes Explored:

• Psychological intrusion and identity distortion
• Childhood trauma and generational abuse
• The eerie contrast between mundane life and looming terror
