About this episode
Henrietta has stopped speaking. At St. Rosalia Indian School in 1905, silence is the only weapon left to her. The nuns mistake it for surrender. They don’t see how compassion slips between the cracks: a blanket to a shivering girl, a crust of bread for a starving boy, a circle of children daring to call magic into being with their hands. When a glowing light answers Henrietta’s defiance, the children learn to believe again—though belief always comes with a cost. Back in Oak Bluffs, Maya sees the same light. And now she wants answers. Who were Henrietta’s people? What words set her free? With Lupe’s help—and a genealogist who knows the Wampanoag roots of this island—Maya begins a search her father would never understand. Robert, meanwhile, is losing clients, losing patience, and perhaps, losing his grip. He finds Lupe at grief counseling, and their past lives brush against the present in ways neither expected. At Moonstone Rescue, a golden retriever’s broken leg tests the line between sanctuary and science. At Jean’s art show, Maya enlists her friends in a ridiculous sabotage campaign to keep her dad away from the witch. And at the edge of the farm, Axel Grayson makes his move—sending his realtor with offers of money, sentiment, and thinly veiled threats. Written by Dominique Mouton. Starring Vanessa Richardson, Madison Griggs, Rainbow Dickerson, Zeke Alton, Sarah Elmaleh, Angel Harper, Amanda Christine, David Reeves Tordilla, Parker Johnson, Derek Mehn, Felisha Wong, and Sarah Phillips. This is what happens when light returns to the silenced. When the words of your ancestor call across generations. When Oak Bluffs decides who belongs, and who will be cast out.
