All all through episode 5, Harper drops hints in entrance of Daphne that Ethan and Cameron did one thing fallacious. When she lastly will get Daphne alone outdoors after dinner, she tells her, “I feel one thing occurred after we had been in Noto.” Daphne is confused. Harper does not specify what she means with phrases however with a glance. And that is when Daphne drops her bomb. She says, “I’m certain no matter occurred wasn’t an enormous deal.
