Krista: This is good news, don't you think? But you're not happy about it.

Elliot: I'm not sure.

K: When did you get it?

E: This morning.

K: How are your interactions with him?

E: For the first time, we trust each other. I help him, he helps me. Since I've been at my mom's, I wanted to get rid of him. But you were right. You can't destroy a part of yourself.

K: Elliot, I need to ask you a question. Where do you think you are right now?

E: What do you mean?

K: Elliot, you know you haven't been staying with your mother, right?

E: I know.

K: When you get released, I hope you continue seeing me in my office. I think it's important we maintain our regular schedule. Don't you agree?

E: Yes.


Control can sometimes be an illusion. But sometimes you need illusion to gain control. Fantasy is an easy way to give meaning to the world, to cloak our harsh reality with escapist comfort. After all, isn't that why we surround ourselves with so many screens? So we can avoid seeing? So we can avoid each other?

(Inmate: I don't think I'm ready to talk about it just yet.)

So we can avoid truth. I'm sorry for not telling you everything. But I needed this in order to get better. Please don't be mad too long. This will be the last time I keep things from you. I promise. I know what you're thinking. And no, I didn't lie to you.

(Prison guard/Elliot's mom: See you in the morning.)

All of this really happened. This was just my way of coping with it. But now, I'd like it if we could trust each other again.

Let's shake on it.
