Melissa's appearance on the Dr. Gregg show in episode 3, 'Was It Worth It?', leads to her video going viral. This event sparks a mix of reactions, with Hazel noting that the responses are mostly positive, though Melissa wonders if it's all genuinely supportive. Dr. Gregg is impressed and wants Melissa to work with him more closely as a consultant producer, which complicates her life further.

In episode 3, Melissa and Ivy delve deeper into Heather's murder by focusing on Heather herself rather than the men in her life. They visit Heather's mother but receive little information. The investigation also involves a church where Keith, known as Happy Face, once visited with a young boy, later identified as Melissa's brother, Shane. This discovery opens new avenues for the mystery.

Hazel continues her fascination with her grandfather's macabre artwork in episode 3. She is excited about the trending hashtag #freeElijah and discusses selling a drawing, but Melissa emphasizes that their actions should be about doing the right thing, not financial gain. Hazel's interest in the artwork reflects her complex relationship with her family's dark past.

Melissa's personal life becomes more complicated when an op-ed about her past, including an abortion she had at 15, is published. This revelation causes her significant distress, and she suspects her ex, Brendan, might be involved. The exposure of her private life adds to her emotional turmoil and vulnerability.

The church scene in episode 3 is significant because it reveals that Keith, or Happy Face, visited the church with a young boy, later identified as Melissa's brother, Shane. This discovery suggests that Shane might have important information about their father's past actions. The church's billboard, which reads 'Find God Here,' mirrors messages left by Keith, further connecting the mystery to Melissa's family.
