Brady and Sarah discover a secret that shakes Salem: Tesoro’s DNA results don’t match Tate’s.

When the lab confirms, they look at each other – silent, but with horror in their eyes.

Brady decides not to tell anyone until he finds out the truth.

He and Sarah sneak into the lab, and find that the person who signed the results is a technician who used to work for… Sophia.

Sarah realizes: “She manipulated everything.” Brady grits his teeth: “She didn’t just lie to Tate – she lied to the world.”

Their investigation takes them to a small suburban apartment – ​​where Sophia used to rent under a false name. In the closet, they find several swapped DNA profiles, including an original that reads: “Tesoro – Father: Unknown.” Sarah collapses, her hands shaking: “So everything… was a lie.” Brady helped her up and whispered, “We have to tell the truth, no matter who gets hurt.”

In the final scene, Sophia appeared behind them, her voice cold as steel: “Do you two really think you’re smart enough to take me down?” Brady’s eyes flashed with defiance, while Sarah looked straight at Sophia and said, “Not to take you down – but to stop you from destroying innocent people.”

The lights went out, leaving only the sound of wind whistling through the windows, leaving the audience breathless. When the truth was revealed, Salem would never be the same again.
