How Episode 8 Ends

Alice sits terrified on the kitchen floor as past trauma surfaces, afraid her pet-communicating secret is uncovered. Outside in the corridor, Frank smiles knowingly because her flustered excuse fell apart. Did Frank already figure out that Alice can communicate directly with Noble, and how will she defend her secret when he confronts her again?
