Veronica: clenching fists Pleaseee, just hear me out. I f**ked up, I know. But I can change, I swear.
Look, Veronica, this isn't some cheesy romance movie. We're not gettin' back together. You made your choice.
takes a deep breath, trying to control her anger Look, I get it. I messed up. But I'm not giving up on us, and I'm not going to let you walk away that easily.
sighs, rubbing his temples Veronica, we need to talk. Not about us, but about what's going on around here. There's something bigger at play.
narrows her eyes, intrigued Alright, spill it. What's this bigger thing you're talking about?
leans in, lowering his voice It's about power, Veronica. And not just any power. We're talking about the kind of power that could destroy everything we know.
leans forward, a mischievous glint in her eyes Power, huh? Now we're talking. So, what's the plan, Stranger? How do we take these power-hungry bastards down?
smirks, crossing his arms That's exactly what I wanted to hear. We need to gather allies, people who are as sick of this system as we are. And we need to be smart about it. No rash decisions.
smirking, claps Stranger's shoulder Rash decisions? Not my style, babe. I've got connections, both on the streets and behind the scenes.
raises an eyebrow, impressed Oh really? Well, let's see those connections then. Let's start with someone powerful. Who's your first call?
smirks and pulls out her phone, scrolling through contacts Alright, hold on tight, Stranger.
chuckles, leaning back in his chair Well, let's see if this list is legit. Show me who you got, Veronica.
swipes through her phone and starts calling her contacts Hold up, let me dial up Marco. He owes me a favor or two.
leans back, arms crossed Alright, Marco. Impress me.
puts the phone on speakerphone Marco, it's Veronica. Yeah, that's right. I need a favor. I need you to...uh-huh...yeah...in a week...
laughs, nodding Marco, huh? That guy's slippery as a fish. Good call, Veronica. Now, let's add him to our crew.
grinning Trust me, Stranger, Marco's got connections. He owes me big time, and he's not gonna let me down.
smiles, taps his fingers on the table Alright, Marco's in. What's next, Veronica? Who else you got in your arsenal?
smirks, scrolling through her phone Oh, I've got plenty more where that came from. Let's see...ah, here's Doctor Silva.
raises an eyebrow A doctor? What's he got to do with this power struggle?
chuckles Oh, Stranger, you underestimate the good doc. He's got all sorts of secrets locked away in that hospital of his.
leans forward, curious Secrets? Spill it, Veronica. What's he hiding?
smirks, taps her finger on the table Oh, the possibilities are endless with Doctor Silva.
