We Were Liars Chapter 73 Summary

  • Cadence goes to Windemere and finds her mom crocheting on the porch.
  • Penny says Cadence spends too much time at Cuddledown, which Carrie told her was filthy.
  • Cadence asks Penny why nobody told her about the fire.
  • Penny is surprised Cadence has finally remembered. She asks what else Cadence remembers, and Cadence says she remembers what the sky looked like and what the smoke smelled like.
  • Penny says she told Cadence about it after it happened, repeatedly, but Cadence never remembered the next day. Finally, the doctors told Penny to stop upsetting her and let her remember on her own.
  • Cadence is offended that Penny would think she was so fragile she couldn't handle the family talking about it in front of her after all this time.
