[ Close-up video. Someone's back to her Epitaph-y look. Oh. And back from the dead. ]

Time passes here. One day, two days, three days, four days, five. Time passes there, seconds at a time. White dresses and dirt. Dark lights, butchers and dumbshows. Here, it's men with two faces, coins and sticks. Like Alpha, but not like Alpha. Murder, but not murder. It doesn't matter.

Is it still murder if the dead come back?

But it was just him. I remember and he was alone.

He did act alone, but it made me realize I can't take chances. You're too important to me Topher. I don't want anything to happen to you.

I don't want anything to happen to me.

Fine. Escorts are fine, just for now though. Just until I'm better.

Alright, until you're better. Still, I want you to consider letting us attach a tracking unit to you that you can activate should you ever be in trouble again.

I'm not a Doll.

No, you're not. You're a lot more valuable than any Doll. I also wasn't talking about an implant like one of the Dolls, but something a bit less permanent.

My watch? I could insert a GPS inside of it.

If you want. I can also buy a new watch and have the GPS installed so you don't have to ruin your current one.

Adelle gave me this watch. She said the person she bought it for didn't need it so I could have it. It was my second year at the House.

I'm sorry, I didn't know.

Do whatever you like with the GPS, just have it on your person alright?

I don't think anyone knows.

I'll work on it. Tonight.

Thank you. I'll just feel a lot better knowing I can find you if anything happens.
