I been thinking. I thought it was cool how the Enclosure got programmed the way it did for Bucky's party, so I was wondering if I could do that, too-- not for a party, but for a fireworks show. I don't know if any of the people here have ever been to one, but where I come from, they're real popular in the summer. You go to a big empty field at night, sit on blankets, and just... watch. Maybe bring out a keg of beer or something, I don't know. You think the Enclosure could do that?
I wanted to do it on my birthday, if things are all calmed down. Sometimes these shows can get crazy and loud with people dancing and partying, but I know I ain't in a raucous mood, and I bet I'm not the only one. So maybe a quiet one would be good right now. Something relaxing.
It'd be nice, I think.

Merlin's better. He-- it's real complicated, but he didn't mean that stuff he said. I know that nothing was making him say it, but he had those parasites in him that had him thinking it was the best thing to do, and... he regrets it. He changed his mind.
[She sounds relieved, if just a tiny bit wary. She wasn't affected by the Sha herself, and she still isn't 100% clear on what exactly it was or how it worked-- so while she's ever-trusting and wants to give her warden the benefit of the doubt, it's going to take her a week or so of him being normal for her to fully believe that he really is staying, and he really does want her as his inmate.]
I ain't mad at him. Y'all don't have to be either.
[Mason and Simon, she's looking at you.]

Hi.

[She finishes off her whiskey, then orders up another one before she starts.]
I was born, and then I went to school, and then I started doing drugs so I stopped going to school, and then I got arrested and found God and went to prison.
Not really that interesting.

[She told Merlin months ago. She kind of told Anthony a few days ago, but she was pretty drunk when she did it. But right now she is neither very drunk nor talking to her warden, and so she considers just telling him that it's none of his business.
But then she doesn't.]
... You could say I got into some trouble at a women's health clinic.

And then suddenly, here you are? Nothin' in between that?

He did right by me. God guided his hand.

God's done too much for me. He brought me here.
[From her tone, it's clear she sees that as a really, really good thing.]

There are certainly worse prisons than this bizarre place, but I'd just as soon not be in a prison at all, except for that whole 'you're probably dead back home' thing.

There's stuff here I like even better than being out of prison. There's nothing like that for you?

I got a nice bed and a chair and an iPod and some nice clothes, though.

Well, that ain't nothin' I didn't have back home. I had more clothes back home. My wardrobe's a little limited here.

[SHRUG.]
… And then there’s people. People who like me for me, and not because we grew up together and are exactly the same.
