The grieving individuals whose family and friends died in the plane crash attempt to move forward with their lives. In “Chrysalis”, Edward (Colin O’Brien) attends high school, Dee Dee (Connie Britton) investigates her husband’s secret second life in LA, and Adriana (Anna Uzele) helps out Kojo (Idris Debrand) with Akua’s funeral. These many subplots finally find some pace, whilst there are plenty of emotive scenes to pull on your heartstrings once again. Here’s what happened in Dear Edward Season 1 Episode 4:
