Episode 4 recap

Saint Cecilia and Pastor Lawrence’s fourth episode began with Lawrence and Abel discussing what the former’s responsibilities at his own church were. The two were then interrupted by the blue-haired girl from last week’s episode, who introduces herself as Hazelita Aldridge, adding that she’s come looking for Abel. She adds that she’s looking for Cecilia, recognizing her as the girl from the other day when the two met once again.

The group then spent the day getting to know each other and also introducing the Great Lady Saint, who is extremely hard to see. Abel then asks if Hazelita can stay the night here, which Lawrence agrees to after some brief begging from Lawrence. Hazelita then remembered making a flower crown for someone when she was younger, questioning if she'd ever made one for anyone but this Lady Saint from her youth.

It’s then revealed that this Lady Saint eventually fell ill, with no one concerned for her health due to her Saintly status. Hazelita then asks Lawrence what he hopes to get out of caring for the Lady Saint, to which he says he wants to see her happy. The rest of the episode focused on the group spending time together, ending with both Hazelita and Abel seemingly set to be guests at Lawrence’s church for quite some time.

What to expect (speculative)

Following Hazelita’s official introduction, Saint Cecilia and Pastor Lawrence episode 5 will likely see her and Cecilia begin spending time with and getting to know each other. Since the two didn’t spend much alone time together during Hazelita’s official introductory episode, fans will see them bond in coming installments.

Conversely, Saint Cecilia and Pastor Lawrence episode 5 may also see Abel and Lawrence begin to discuss the former’s relationship with Hazelita. This will almost certainly lead to some parallels between Lawrence and Cecilia’s relationship and Abel and Hazelita’s, even if Hazelita and Cecilia are extremely different individuals.
