Cruising the countryside Filomena's internal concerns are showing in nervous conversation. Slowing the Ferrari to take a turn Vladimir spies it within her eyes. Most of her ideas and queries include Ella, encouraging Vladimir to recants relationship antidotes. Fil regards his telling tales as a diversion from building anxiety over imminent violence. His male viewpoints come off as living with an intelligent canine. Filomena realizes Ella and wolf seem to be wanders to a point Vladimir rarely has experiences with the woman. Assessing thoughts and comments Filomena feels Ella and Vladimir do love each other, like siblings, giving her confidence a relationship is possible.
On a dirt road a couple miles from Hoss' valley village Vlad stops the car. Retrieving the bag of guns he takes Filomena on a hike traversing a lightly wooded area.
Filomena has a hard time being quiet, but fortunately they don't encounter anyone. Vladimir brings her to a decrepit farm, overgrown in weeds. Within a barely standing or together barn Vlad conceals the guns for later.
Returning to the car Filomena tries to be quieter.
Back at the mansion Vladimir and Filomena are in differing mindsets. Roused by woman and nearing dangerous task Vladimir desires intimate action. Woes reflected within Filomena's eyes, Vladimir wraps her in comforting arms kissing her forehead. Requiring distraction from dreadful thoughts Fil kisses his lips implying further affection is welcome.
Cue taken Vladimir whisks Filomena off feet carrying her to the bedroom. Neither requiring spoken word plying only senses of touch and feel tenderly exploring one another. Internally agreeing if to be the last let it be the best. Indulging in their human forms create a favored memorable coupling moment.

The only bright spot in Ella's day was the wolf sleeping away the afternoon. Allowing Ella a break from her conscious mind. Forever chasing a two-legged silhouette, was dreamed by the Wolf
Back in human form Ella sits upon the porch to bask in the end of the sunset. Mentally lost she doesn't see the sky before her.
As the sky turns dark blue Ella prepares for the night ahead. Turning on and up her music she sways into the kitchen. Randomly grabbing up a bottle of wine she opens it and forgoes the glass. Sampling the wine Ella studies refrigerator contents craving cheese and crackers. With more condiments than food she selects some turkey and pickles to accompany the wine.
Eventually Ella put on some clothes, dressing in faded black, cargo pants and T-shirt. Restocking the handbag Ella ensures the handgun within is loaded. Wrangling up the remaining bullets around the farmhouse takes longer than expected between the wine and tears from feeling alone.
She does manage to put on and pull up her hiking boots.
Focused on an old truck in the drive Ella snags the keys on the way out.
Finishing the forth bottle of wine Ella tosses it into the drive shed to shatter.
Seated behind the steering wheel of an early eighties Dodge ram pick-up truck, Ella fires up the engine.
The old and seldom used truck puffs smoke that leaves a white trail driving off the property.
On the rural roads Ella presses hard on the accelerator blasting the dust and cobwebs out of the engine system and across the next couple fields.
Nearing 2am Ella reaches the hilltop mansion. Observing the red coupe parked out front she figures Vladimir's likely off already, however to make sure she pulls in and parks next to the car.
