Tabitha is back in the real world in From season 3 episode 1 but is worried about her family

It seems like Tabitha's small experiment last season has worked in her favor. After trying to come up with ways of traveling back to the real world Tabitha finally encountered a young boy clad in white, who at the time Tabitha did not realize, could help her in her endeavor.

However, as From season 3 episode 1 revealed, Tabitha was in the real world, thanks to the same boy who had pushed her off the lighthouse after apologizing to her.

In the finale episode of the show's second season, she experienced difficulty in understanding her current circumstances but as the developments in the premiere episode of season 3 of the show progressed, she became more and more aware of her surroundings, finally realizing that she had been able to escape the monstrous town at the center of the show.

However, she was not relieved as she had left behind her husband Jim and her two children Julie and Ethan back in town. Tabitha even met her mother who informed her that her family has been on the lookout for Tabitha, Jim, and their children for a long time.

Despite having answers to her mother's questions on the subject, Tabitha did not comment on her or her husband and children's current whereabouts thinking that it would probably be too much to explain and that she would not be believed.

Tabitha tracks down Victor's address in From season 3 episode 1

After being unable to reveal much to her mother, Tabitha seeked solace in her hardships by taking the path of religion in From season 3 episode 1. She went to a nearby church and confessed to a priest about her current circumstances, but kept the information as ambiguous as possible.

During their conversation, the topic of Tabitha's deceased child Thomas also came up and the priest unknowingly pointed towards a lunchbox Tabitha was carrying thinking it to be Thomas's.

However, the lunchbox belonged to Victor. After the priest turned Tabitha's attention to the lunchbox she did some digging and found a note in the box. She found that the note inside the box contained an address and that it was none other than Victor's, in the real world.

Tabitha followed the address and reached Victor's home but was shooed away by a strange man who she assumed was Victor's father. However, Tabitha did not give up and asked him about Victor when he enquired about the lunchbox she was carrying.

He was shocked, to hear Tabitha addressing Victor, although the relationship he shares with him was not established in the episode. From season 3 episode 1 did not reveal much beyond this conversation between the two. Perhaps the next episode will divulge the details of Victor's parentage and home in more detail.
