Episode 23:
Elouise is in Calista's apartment after asking to come in.
Line 1) Elouise's inner thoughts: I should try and be as friendly as possible so that she opens up to me.
Elouise
Line 2) What a nice place you have.
Calista
Line 3) Oh. Thank you.
Calista
Line 4) Would you like something to drink? Coffee? Tea? Water?
Elouise
Line 5) Tea would be nice.
Line 6) Elouise's inner thoughts: I want to keep the conversation flowing for as long as possible. She seems eager to get me out of here.
Calista
Line 7) You can have a seat by our dining table.
Line 8) Calista's inner thoughts: Why did I ask her if she wanted to drink something? There's no way she'll leave quickly now.
Calista prepares the tea and brings it to the dining table. She sits in front of Elouise.
Elouise takes a sip from her cup.
Line 9) Elouise's inner thoughts: I wanted to complain about something, but, unfortunately, this tea is quite delightful.
*Reminder scene of when Teresa told Elouise to be nice to Calista (refer back to episode 22).
Line 10) Elouise's inner thoughts: Ugh. I should try and be nice. If I'm mean she'll consider me "unapproachable".
Elouise looks around the apartment some more and sees another bed.
Line 11) Elouise's inner thoughts: Huh. I wonder why there's a bed there of all places. But then again, it's none of my business to know.
Calista nervously glances at Elouise.
Line 12) Calista's inner thoughts: Why isn't she saying anything? She's the one who wanted to talk. What's with this silence?
