It could... or it could make everything worse. Breaker seemed to think that. [ Her eyes remain downturned, shifting side to side as if she is trying to determine what to do. What to even think is a good move. She'll have to confront the government at some point--won't she? In order to find her baby brother. ] I don't know.
[ She only casts one glance over at the door with Alan and Emma. No jealousy is in her gaze. Something more like understanding or awareness. More people are caught up in this story he's trying to write to get out. Or, does the story happen and he's along for the ride?
Does it matter either way? ]
Oh, yeah, totally. I'm definitely staying in the light this time. It just doesn't feel like those things are around again. I thought you should know. Like something beyond us wanted you to know. Look, I know that sounds crazy, but, this is all kind of crazy. [ Emma glances over Alan's shoulder to look in the room. She sees Jesse. It takes a moment, but then her eyes widen. ] Oh, hey! I know you! I mean, not know, but I've seen you around town... there was a town here right? Like around a park or something?
[ Jesse stands up immediately and moves further into the room. She quietly steps into the bathroom. The door shuts as silently as possible. Her head rests on the door. She doesn't want Alan to realize she has no place to live. He'll feel worse. That's not his fault. It's her own fault. She couldn't keep her mouth shut. ]
Sorry, uh... I didn't mean to say something bad. [ Emma apologizes gently. ] I've just seen her around. Before tonight. Moving place to place around town. I'm not sure she had somewhere to stay, because she never came here to the motel. I guess she's alright now though, if you're looking after her.
