A woman climbs up a fire exit on an apartment building, a hood covering her face. She was following Kaine earlier, and now she knows exactly where to look in order to find him. She climbs the side, frost forming under her palms. She takes note, and immediately, there is no more frost where her hand goes. She continues up the fire escape, and looks in the window. Nobody is there, which means Kaine is somewhere else, doing something else. All this woman knows is that he's a killer.

Switch to a young, blue-haired woman, talking to Charlie, who we saw earlier. "So, you knew Darla?" asks the young woman.

"Not very well... We talked four times."

"But you knew her?"

"Yes. To a small extent."

"How-- who--"

The woman blanks out, not knowing what to ask.

"You okay, Delia?"

"Hm? Yeah."

"I'm not convinced. Seriously, ask me anything."

"I'm not sure what I want to know. What kind of person is--was she?"

"She was a good person, who did good things. I do know someone else who knows her, probably better than I do."

"Who?"

"He's the Scarlet Spider. I don't know where you can find him, though."

"I... know him already."

"Well, that's great!"

"I guess so. Thank you, Charlie."

"No problem!"

The two walk away, Charlie to her home, and Delia to find Kaine. Again.
