When Davina got back to the inn Granny Alyssa was in her room.
"Hell," Davina grumbled.
"Miss Tate. Oh my, this is terribly awkward. Uh, I need to ask you to leave. I'm afraid we have a 'no felons' rule. It... It turns out it's a city ordinance." Alyssa remarked.
"Let me guess – the Mayor's office just called to remind you." Davina agreed and Alyssa looked to her feet.
"You can gather your things, but I need to have your room key back." Alyssa remarked holding out her hand and Davina fished it from her pocket.
Alicent was picking apples up off the ground when Criston came up behind her.
"She destroyed city property. I want her arrested." Alicent demanded.
"Again?" Criston countered.
"What are you waiting for?" ALicent demanded turning to face him. Criston sighed taking another step closer.
"I'm just not convinced arresting her is the right plan. And I'm not talking about your tree. We both know she didn't steal those files." Criston corrected and Alicent grit her teeth.
"Oh, do we?"
"I mean, she looked pretty shocked when I levelled the charges against her." Criston agreed.
"It's because she doesn't like being caught." ALicent assured.
"Or because she was set up. And if she was, that means Dr. Victor was lying. And if he's lying, that means that someone asked him to." Criston remarked. "Are we really confident that the man's conscience won't eventually get the best of him?"
"I think your schoolboy crush is clouding your judgment." ALicent countered. "Remember – I made you sheriff. And I can take it away just as easily." ALicent remarked and Criston shook his head biting back a response.
"If you want me to arrest her again, I will." Criston agreed slowly.
"Good." ALicent agreed turning back to her ruined tree.
"But she's going to keep coming at you. And I know that you're going to keep coming at her and you will do whatever it takes to get her out of here and you may succeed." Criston remarked. Alicent snapped around to face him.
"No, I will succeed. Hazel is my daughter. It's what's best for her." Alicent declared.
"Your mum is yelling again." Luke remarked.
"I will check it out after I lose this last life." Hazel countered uninterested. "Bubble, bubble, luke go in a bubble I will save you!"
"where is the bubble button?" Luke shouted.
"I know that's what you believe. Yeah, but if this escalates, it seems to me the only one who will get hurt is Hazel." Criston declared.
Davina was walking down the street. She looked over to where her car was parked and saw that it had a boot on it.
"Fucking..." Davina griped when her phone rang out. "Yeah?" Davina questioned.
"Miss Tate, I'd be happy to continue demonstrating my power, but am I right in guessing your resolve to stay is only growing?" Alicent questioned through the phone.
"You have no idea." Davina agreed.
" Well then. I think it's time we made peace. Why don't you drive over to my office? Or walk, whatever suits you." Alicent chuckled.

"I'd like to start by apologizing, Miss Tate."
" What?" Davina countered.
