Jack was fuming. "That was some speech you made." Twitch said
"What are you doing up here?" Jack asked
"I was bored."
"Did I say you could go through my stuff?" He snatched a sketch away from her
"I didn't know what it was." She explained, "Are these of the refuge?"
"Yeah? So what?"
"Is this really what it's like?" She asked
"Different than how you were raised?"
"My uncle told me you were arrested stealing clothes and food. Is this why? You went to jail to get food for your friends."
"Can you explain to me why you sold us out to your uncle?" Jack shouted
"I didn't sell you out!"
"Honestly, Lindsay, I didn't think I was working with a backstabber!"
"Oh, you have no idea how these pregnancy hormones can make eyes so purple!"
"I'd like to see! Give me your best shot!"
Twitch waited a second. Then she kissed him. "I needed to know you didn't cave for the money." She said
"I didn't. He ain't giving up. I don't know what to do."
"I do. Katherine came up with it." She then explained Katherine's idea of the Children's Crusade
"I like it. Real quick: what is this for you?" He meant the kiss, "Am I dumb or is there something..."
"Of course there is."
"But a girl like you would never end with a guy like me." He said
"Jack, I was with a Delancey for a while. I can do worse. Listen."
(Pause at if things were different)

"If things were different." Jack said
"What? If you weren't going to Santa Fe?" Twitch asked
"Psh. And if you weren't pregnant. And if it's father didn't wanna kill me."
"You're not really scared of Oscar Delancey."
"No. But I am scared of you."
"Don't be."
(Continue song)
     "What are we going to do about printing?" Twitch asked
     "Oh no." Jack said in a cute voice (that's how I find it anyway), "I know exactly where we can find two of them. Including yours."
     "Where?"
     "Baby, go get Katherine and I'll show you where."
