Now homeless he's living in a basement, but he's a snoop. It's his ingrained nature to spy, to uncover secrets, and he finds all of Carly's scars and hidden traumas. She hides it behind a sunny smile and a spry walk, but she's hurting. What she cannot anticipate is that the god at her door is living under her floor, and she'll bleed for him. He is Carly's nemesis, she just never knew it.
