Stop fucking putting words in my mouth. [but yes, though] Neither of them should have died. This shouldn't be a thing. But it's all coulda shoulda woulda - we fucked up, we picked the wrong person, and now a girl is dead, a girl who just wanted to fucking help.
[a hiccup. she shifts, and snatches the bottle of alcohol to take a drink.]
I didn't really have a reason. [sigh.] I just - wanted to know if you had a different perspective, I guess. I'm trying to make sense of everything. Trying to figure out how the fuck to make sure this doesn't happen again.

no subject
You've never said that to me, [or if he did she wasn't listening] so don't get on my fucking case. I also didn't say you should grovel --

Look - this isn't to say you can't, just. [... how does she be diplomatic, this is not her strong suit]
There's gonna be some stuff you can't do. And when I run into things I can't do, I'll see if you can. Alright?
