Dewicked trope
Deleted line(s) 17 (click to see context) :
* AdultFear: You get into an accident that gives your daughter brain damage that resets her memories every 24 hours. To keep her from realizing anything wrong, you, your son and all her friends repeat the last day before the accident over and over, but you know that it can't last forever as she will still age, and one day she will wake up and from her perspective has lost years of her life overnight.

* MaintainTheLie: Lucy's friends and family conspire to prevent her from learning about her amnesia. However, this [[DeconstructedTrope ultimately doesn't work]]. A simple traffic ticket, glancing at a newspaper, or somebody like Henry coming into her life can break this lie easily. Henry straight up tells up Marlin that Lucy will one day wake up to discover she's years older.
