"There's things I want to say to you, but I'll just let you live."
Lana Del Rey

SLOANE HOPPED UP ON CAFFEINE WAS LIKE AN AUCTIONEER ON SPEED-RUN.

After finishing up their movie, Michael and Vienna had went down to dinner, and then back up to the movie room, Sloane and Cassie as well.

Sloane had a statistic for every situation, and they had been pouring out of her mouth for the past two hours.

"Sixteen percent of American men have blue eyes. But over 40% of male TV doctors do."

Vienna knew from experience that watching television with a hyped up statisian was challenging, but unfortunately, Sloane wasn't the only person who had followed Cassie and Vienna to the media room to watch their medical show.

"Her mouth is saying 'I love you, Darren', but her posture says, 'I can't believe the writers are doing this to my character, she'd never get involved with this schmuck!" Michael tosses a piece of popcorn into his mouth.

"Do you mind?" Cassie looks at him.

He grins. "Not at all."

When Cassie arrived at the program, Vienna had learned that they enjoyed the same medical drama, so they would often watch it together in the media room.

They tried their very best to ignore Sloane's rapid fact sharing, and Michael's careful yet annoying analysis of the characters, though they couldn't even fully comprehend the medical drama with the constant chatter.

Cassie finally added to the constant word flow in the media room.

"Dr. Darren's BPE doesn't add up." Cassie ponders aloud.

'BPE' stands for behavior, personality, and environment, which was a common profiling tactic.

"We could switch to reality TV." Michael suggests.

"About one percent of the general population is considered to be psychopaths." Sloane announces. "Recent estimates show that over fourteen percent of reality tv stars are."

"Whose estimates?" Vienna asks.

Sloane's smile resembled the cheshire cat. "Mine."
