Hallucination or reality?

Minutes later, Annie once again hears the trumpet noises and she falls to the floor, unable to take the noises. An irritated Annie stabs her eardrums to stop the noise and ends up becoming deaf. In the episode, it seems like the anonymous trumpet player is just a hallucination, which Annie had created, to block the thought of her husband being a child abuser. Despite Annie’s deafness, she can now hear a soft trumpet sound and notices an anonymous man standing outside. Annie follows the man to find out his truth, however, she remains calm, looking intently at him and that’s when the episode ends.
