It was a media blitzkrieg as everyone in Evergreen County were shocked to see that the infamous Hannah Baker tapes were posted online the night before anonymously. Andy & Olivia are in the courthouse with Dennis as they prepare to testify. Jackie enters the room...
Jackie: Well, there's lots of chatter online about Hannah's tapes. People are worried it's going to affect the trial.
Dennis Vasquez: I'm not concerned. It still doesn't serve the school to admit them into evidence any more than it does us.
Olivia Baker: But couldn't it work in our favor? To have Hannah's story out there in her own words?
Andy Baker: Or will it bias the jury against us?
Olivia Baker: How? How could it do that? To hear what happened to her.
Andy Baker: It's a complicated story, Liv.
As the Bakers prepare for their testimony, Clay wakes to his phone buzzing as he picks it up and see angry texts from Alex, Sheri, & Tony. Justin enters the room as he gets ready for his official return to Liberty.
Justin Foley: Ho. Today is gonna suck.
Clay Jensen: What, you mean, because of...?
Justin Foley: It's like the first day of school or something. But, like, in some weird, alternate universe where, like, everyone's been talking about me for months.
Clay Jensen: Uh, yeah, that's surreal.
Clay & Justin arrive to Liberty as every student just look at them because they've either already listened to the tapes or are currently listening to them.
Justin Foley: Listen, this is weird, right?
Clay Jensen: Um... Yeah.
They make their way inside the school as all eyes are still on them.
Justin Foley: This is about me, isn't it?
Clay Jensen: Yeah, must be.
Student: Can't believe he'd show up here.
As the students speak among themselves, Hannah appears next to Clay.
Hannah Baker: Helmet. Hate to say I told you so, but... Or did we just not think this part through? I'm curious, what happens to Jessica now? Or Alex, or Justin, or you?
Sheri Holland: Clay, did you not get any of my texts?
Sheri approaches them in the hallway.
Clay Jensen: (Stammering) My ringer must be off.
Clay's phone begins to ring as he was caught in a lie. Clay takes out his phone and sees that Skye is calling him.
Clay Jensen: Skye? Hey, hello?
Clay steps away as he takes the call.
Sheri Holland: Hey, Justin. I'd say welcome back, but kind of shitty timing.
Justin Foley: What do you mean?
Sheri Holland: I mean about the tapes.
Justin Foley: What about the tapes?
Sheri Holland: Did Clay not tell you? Maybe he doesn't even know.
Justin Foley: Know about what?
Sheri Holland: They're out. Someone posted them online. Everyone listened all last night.
Justin Foley: What?
