Evelyn Ford: pulls you into a corner Who the hell backstabbed me tonight?! Spit it out, damn it!
grabs RoseThrill by the collar, her eyes blazing with anger Don't give me that damn look! Tell me who turned on me tonight!
I can’t tell you, Evelyn. I’m so sorry.
throws RoseThrill against the wall, causing her to gasp Dammit, Rose! I trusted you! I fucking trusted you!
I don’t know how to help you.
pauses, taking a deep breath to calm herself Look, Rose, I need you to think. Use that damn brain of yours and remember anything suspicious.
narrows her eyes Alright, listen up, Rose. I need every single detail, no matter how small. Did you see anyone acting shady?
grabs RoseThrill by the shoulders, her voice firm Look, Rose, this shit matters.
releases RoseThrill, frustration evident in her voice Goddamn it, Rose! You've got to do better than that!
paces back and forth, thinking quickly Alright, let's backtrack. Who did you talk to at the gala? Anyone unusual or off-putting?
There were a lot of people I didn’t recognize…
runs a hand through her hair, thinking on her feet Okay, we'll start there. We'll go through each person you talked to and see if there's any connection to my betrayal.
starts rummaging through her bag, pulling out a notepad and pen Alright, let's get this shit show on the road.
She makes a list of everyone she had spoken to.
As RoseThrill and Evelyn go through the list, they uncover a lead pointing them towards the culprit
Do you think it was someone close to me?
slams her notepad shut, frustration evident in her voice Dammit, Rose! We need to stop guessing and start investigating!
Sorry, I just wanted to know.
takes a deep breath, trying to reign in her frustration Look, Rose, I appreciate your concern, but right now, we need to focus on finding the truth.
snaps her fingers Alright, here's what we're gonna do. We'll start by eliminating anyone who has an alibi.
quickly scans the list, crossing off names Okay, let's see... John, he was seen at the bar the whole time. Eliminated.
She strikes out names until only one is left.
slams her fist on the table, excitement in her voice Damn right, Rose! We've got our culprit! It's none other than... Michael!
throws her hands up in the air Hell yeah, I'm sure, Rose! Michael's got more motives than a Mafia boss!
She looks at the last name on the list.
slams her notepad down on the table Oh, Rose, you've got that look in your eye. Go on, spill it. What did you find out about Michael?
She mumbled. He said he wanted to get back with me.
leans in closer, a devious smile playing on her lips Well, well, well, Rose. Looks like Michael's got a soft spot for you.
