Come in. I'm almost packed. I'm not rushing you. No, you're just standing in the doorway watching

me like a hawk. Considering your track record of taking my things, can you blame me? I didn't

what I had to do, Maxine. What you had to do? You nearly burned down Scarlett's whole business.

Do you have any idea what you've done to my reputation? I don't think you understand the gravity

of what I'm dealing with. I understand exactly. That's why I told you not to do it. I didn't have a choice.

Ah, ah, ah. Look, I'm really sorry, Maxine. Me too. You're a smart girl, Kira, and you have good instincts.

But you are not ready for what you're getting yourself into. Yeah, well, I have to be.

Then for the sake of this whole world, I wish you luck.

You can drop your key in the mailbox when you leave.

You know I have nowhere else to go, right? Like I said, you're a smart girl, Kira. You'll figure it out.

I'm going, Maxine. I just need a goddamn minute. To me, Kira. Zoe? Zoe, what are you doing here?

I had to see you. How are you here? What happened to you? No, we don't have time for that.
