From Kaydee, for About.com

Her eyes snap open, and she's back on her couch, still clutching the photo of her and Ben. She sees Todd standing over her. Hey, he says softly. Hey, yourself, she replies. She stands up and says, "You wanna hear something weird and crazy?"

"Sure!"
"I dreamed I was dead..and my family was in mourning."
"You shouldn't think about that now."
"I know, but it was so weird."
"The dream was just a reminder."
"A reminder of what?" she says, following behind him.
"Shhhhhhh.." he says, from behind her, "Just listen, and follow the clues."
"What clues? Todd, just tell me. Am I dead?"
"No, he says. Just follow the clues. Here, this is for you." He's holding a huge white gift box, wrapped in red ribbon. Flash over to Viki. She's holding the same gift box, only it's smaller. She opens it and find a little red, plastic heart. She takes it out and hears Ben say, "Follow your heart!" In her shock, she drops the heart and it shatters. A bunch of pills fall to the ground, surrounding a large metal key.

She bends to pick up the key, and looks up to find herself in an empty Capricorn.
(I'm assuming it's Capricorn, don't kill me if I'm wrong!) She calls out.."Hello? Is anyone here? Oh, my, am I in heaven?" A tall red gift box appears on a table nearby, and she walks over to it, spotting a keyhole in the center of the box. She uses her key to open the lock and opens the lid. Inside, there is a heart-shaped picture frame housing a wedding photo of her and Ben kissing.

"Mom? Would you like a drink before you go?" She looks over to the bar to see Natalie standing beside a life-sized martini glass, pouring mini bottles of liquor into it. "Martini with olives, right?"

"Go? Go where?" Viki asks. "Where am I going, Natalie? Do you know?" "Don't you? I guess they're keeping it a secret. Everything is one big mystery."
"I can't leave you now, Natalie. I'm so worried about you."
"Don't be."
"I will always worry. I'm your mother..."
"You need to focus on you."
"I can't..I worry about my family. I love you...."
"MOM! It's not about me, or Jess, or Kevin, or Todd, or anyone else! What happens to us isn't important! DEATH isn't the mystery!"
"Then what is?"
"Dance with me, Blondie...." Ben calls again. She looks up into the sky..Ben?
Ben's silhouette appears from behind a wall of lights, seemingly coming toward her. She happily heads to meet him, but the silhouette moves away.
Snap back to Llanfair, Todd is there. Todd, am I dead? NO! Didn't I tell you that? I hope I did. Dorian will kill me if I didn't make that clear. You're not dead, you have a lot to live for. He walks away, and Viki picks up her little plastic heart, which is whole again. Thank you for my gift. I'm sorry I broke it.

You didn't break it, Viki. You looked inside. What did you a find? A key, that opened a box with a picture of Ben and me inside. But this is all crazy. I feel like I'm in a riddle wrapped inside another riddle. It's no riddle, sis, it's your spirit leading you somewhere. Follow it and see where it leads you. But what if I go down the wrong path? Then go down the wrong path. Sometimes that's how you get to the right path.

She jumps as the patio doors fly open. She heads toward them..But what if I go so far down the wrong path, I can't find my way back? What do I do then....? Todd is gone. She turns back to the patio to see Clint, who has poofed his way there in a cloud of smoke. Why do you worry so much? Mistakes don't always prove to be fatal Viki. Follow the clues, and see where it takes you. Ben calls out again...

"Follow your heart."
