Slater turns to her. His eyes are warm. His words are a plea of understanding.


SLATER
We can all have a second chance, Stacy. That’s what we’re trying to do. We're trying give people a second chance at treating the M-Verse with respect.

The young woman snorts with anger.


STACY
Straight from Walker's mouth. See now, that's the kind of blind foolishness that make me wanna hurt somebody. And here I was trying to be nice. But you’re just another one of Walker's blind little sheep. And I won't let you or him stand in my way.

Stacy scoots closer to Slater. She speaks directly in his hear, plainly and sharply and plainly.


STACY
The school's presence here is an insult to me. Walker isn't man enough to be here himself so I can make him pay for what he did to me. So you're going to pick up the tab. When I'm done with Dale, I'm coming for you. I'm going to grind you up until there's nothing left but a greasy little smear under my boot.

Stacy gets up from the bench and heads back to towards the mansion. Slater contemplates for a moment before getting up and returning to his routine.
