Sarah's eyes filled with tears, after releasing the bombastic revelation, she looked at Maggie.

Sarah shook her head and was crying for feeling guilty of betraying her sister.

Sarah: Sorry, I had to tell them.

Natasha and Steve stood there looking at Sarah, trying to find some logic in what she had just said, it was impossible for them to conceive the idea that any of their children would get involved with this sort of thing, and even if it were possible, Maggie would be the last chance for it.

Natasha even prepared to laugh, thinking about this being a prank of them in Steve, but Sarah was really crying and Maggie was really scared.

Maggie didn't sustain this scared position for long, because she knew there is no other way, she would have to face the consequences now and face her parentes sermon, and she is not in the mood for sermon, she has full knowledge of her actions and as she was no longer living with them, she doesn't think she has to explain anything to Steve and Natasha.

Steve looked down and was silent, he was still reflecting and Natasha didn't want to be the first to speak, after all Steve was Maggie's father and she just the stepmother.

Steve frowned, then looked at Maggie.

S: Is that true?

Maggie looked away and crossed her arms.

S: Maggie?

Steve called her, because Maggie didn't want to respond.

Natasha looked at Sarah.

N: Did you use it, Sarah?

Sarah shook her head.

Sarah: No, of course not.

S: Did they offer you too?

Sarah nodded and Steve sighed again, even more frustrated.

Steve stood up slowly, staring at Maggie.

Sarah: Dad?

Sarah got up too and how she was the one who gave away Maggie to her father, she feels responsible for anything that comes out of this revelation and she is desperate for whatever punishment Maggie may receive, so she will do anything to avoid fights.

Sarah: We'll take care of this easily, won't we? She's going to change, she's not going to use it anymore, right, Maggie?

Sarah looked quickly at Maggie and then at Steve.

Sarah: It was only that night, tell them, Maggie...

Sarah looked at Maggie, hoping that Maggie would just confirm and say she will never do that again and that everything will be all right between them, as it always was.

Maggie narrowed her eyes.

M: Of course it wasn't the first time. You're so stupid!

Maggie spoke very contemptuously and then looked at Steve, not fearing any reprisal, it was as if she had acquired a second personality.

M: And she's the one you chose as your favorite...

S: I don't have a favorite daughter.

Maggie started to laugh.

M: That's why I can't stand being here. House of lies.

S: Can't stand being here???
