Published: Jun 11 2024

Episode 6 of "Not Dead Yet" kicks off with Nell standing in the washroom, brushing her teeth, surrounded by a cadre of spectral figures. Edwin, puzzled, asks Nell who she's conversing with, but she waves him off, feigning interest in a podcast. Nell makes her way to the office, where her chum Sam is busy preparing for the upcoming festival.

A pang of jealousy gnaws at Nell as she witnesses the close bond between Sam and Lexi. Lexi extends an invitation to Sam for a girls' night out, offering a relaxing session in a massage chair. As they exchange ideas, Nell is tasked with approaching Cricket to inquire about setting up a stall at the festival.

In the hallway, Dennis assigns Nell her next assignment: to write a profile on a woman named Teri Lawrence, the enigmatic puppet lady. Nell heads to Cricket's bar to discuss the festival stall, but Cricket is initially reluctant. However, Nell's offer to lend a helping hand softens Cricket's stance. Quickly realizing her lack of knowledge in the realm of wines, Nell seeks assistance.

Unperturbed, Nell departs, but Tori, the ghostly presence, gently reminds her of the importance of kindness and not leaving Lexi alone in her sorrow.

Reluctantly, Nell returns and probes deeper, inquiring about the source of Lexi's sadness.

Nell concedes that they may have been too hard on Lexi, acknowledging the myriad of challenges she is facing.

Elsewhere, Cricket and Edwin engage in a candid dialogue, exploring the complexities of Edwin's fractured relationship with his girlfriend. Edwin reveals that she had requested some space, leaving him perplexed and uncertain. Cricket offers sage advice, urging him to trust his instincts and seek clarity in the situation.
