- Forced to flee in the night, Andy prepares to navigate the long journey to Maine without a GPS, while Laura asks Gordon for help with a delicate matter.
- Pieces of Her episode 2 starts similarly to the first episode. We see a young blond girl trapped in a box or a shed of some kind with snow falling outside. She's scared and worried about a mysterious man returning.
In the present, a distressed Andy does her best to get to Carrolltown the old-fashioned way (a physical map!) since Laura warned her against using GPS. Once there, she stops at the local library to print directions to Maine and try to learn more about her mother and "Paula Kunde," although at this point Andy still isn't sure what she heard, so searches like "Paula Koontz" doesn't bear fruit.
Meanwhile, Laura fends off a pair of cops intrigued by her strange reaction during the restaurant shooting (She was lying on top of Andy trying to protect her, while everyone else was lying under the tables). Laura lies, telling them Andy has gone to see friends and claims the 911 call the night before was just a misunderstanding, as she thought she saw somebody outside her window. In Carrolltown, Andy notices a man inspecting the stolen car. It looks like she's being followed. Andy runs to the nearby storage facility on foot. She finds a car loaded with fake IDs, a gun, and a suitcase full of cash inside her mom's unit.
Poor Gordon gets roped into the mess. The robber's not dead. Laura has him tied up under the bathroom sink. She wants to use him to facilitate a meeting with his boss, and she needs Gordon's help to transport him to the meeting place. But bad luck strikes again as the man has a seizure and dies in the backseat. Gordon offers to take care of the body, returning Laura home, where she runs into a man named Charlie (Gil Birmingham) waiting for her on the front porch. Laura assures him everything is fine, when Charlie offers to get her away from the media glare and go incognito again. She says that Andy is visiting friends. Charlie leaves after setting up a meeting for the following day. Laura has flashbacks of her past, where a man is shot in public, during a discussion on the worth of a human life.
Andy books a motel room and then slinks into the nearby bar where she connects with a handsome guy named Jack (Jacob Scipio). she learns that Jack was in a military boot camp and was training to be a marksman. She even convinces him to teach her how to shoot the gun. It looks like the two might spend the night together, but then Andy notices a rabbit foot charm dangling from Jack's rear-view mirror. It's identical to one she saw the night before while trying to find the robber's car. Andy thinks this is another bad guy following her and immediately retreats to her room, keeping her gun close.
In Belle Isle, Laura finally decides to give the reporters who have been stationed outside her house for days exactly what they want. She agrees to give an interview, so long as they promise not to edit anything and ensure it is broadcast nationally. It sounds like she wants to send a message to whoever is watching her!
