In the Big Little Lies season 1 episode 4 promo video, Madeline asks Jane about the fact that she’s doing target practice. The timing seems suspicious since they’re about to go on a road trip to find Ziggy’s father, the man who sexually assaulted Jane. Then, Renata Klein (Laura Dern) finds bite marks on Amabella and asks her what happened. In therapy, Celeste reflects on the fact that she and Perry seem to turn each other on by rage. Ed Mackenzie (Adam Scott) tells Madeline that he doesn’t know where her head has been the last couple days. He asks what she’s not telling him.
