Summary

In this section, Anna pries on her previous patients from her phone. She looks up their online profiles to check whether the patients had made any progress. She acknowledges that this is against the ethical conduct that was expected of psychologists. The author, therefore, indicates that Anna showed no remorse. Anna uses phantom accounts to pry on them. The progress of her patients makes her emotional. This conveys to the audience that Anna was sad because her therapy sessions with her doctor were not as fruitful as those with her previous patients. Saddened by this she starts talking to the ghost of her husband so that he may comfort her. This shows the supportive role of spouses in today’s families. After the discourse with her husband, Anna decides to watch her neighbors from her window. As she looks from her bedroom window, she notices Ethan changing his clothes and guiltily looks away. Although she had described Ethan as a likeable character, Anna fears that she may be attracted to him. The author represents that this was against the social norms.
