Cut to a flashback:
Outside Il Giardino, Steffy arrived in time to see Sheila confronting Finn in a heated argument. From Steffyâs view, it looked like Sheila was pulling something from her coatâpossibly a weapon. Without thinking, Steffy pulled a gun she had taken from a security detail earlier that week and fired.
But Luna had stepped between them at the last secondâtrying to defuse the situation. The bullet struck Luna first, then grazed Sheilaâs shoulder as it passed through.
