"I was surprised when you asked me of all people to go to the mall with you. Isn't Rue like your best friend?" Maddy Perez asked Zelena Lincoln as they were on the escalator together. Zelena looked at Maddy and shrugged.

"She is, but she's not into shopping," Zelena said.

"I thought you hated me," Maddy said.

"I don't hate you. I don't hate anyone, but I don't like you because you act like a spoiled brat who's mad at me just because I'm cheer captain and because Nate is my best friend." She said, which made Maddy roll her eyes.

"What do you really want, Zelena? Why am I here?" Maddy asked.

"You're here because you wanted to come. You could've told me no. But I needed to talk to you. Do you think people are like...100% straight, and like 100% gay?" Zelena asked.

"No, 'cause obviously there's like, bi people, asexual, pan... sexuality is like a spectrum, you know?" Maddy said back to her, and Zelena nodded her head.

"Yeah. I get it." Zelena said.

"Why?" Maddy asked.

"I don't know... Do you think straight guys ever, like... watch gay porn?" Zelena asked.

"Not if they're a hundred percent straight," Maddy said.

"Maddy... you literally just said sexuality is a spectrum," Zelena said.

"Yeah, on either side of the spectrum is gay and straight," Maddy said.

"What the fuck? I fucking hate this." Zelena said, rolling her eyes.

"Is this about Nate?" She asked.

"Thought you didn't care about him anymore, since you revenge slept with Tyler, who is now laying in a hospital... in case you cared," Zelena said.

The truth is, Maddy knew. Nate told her, and she was too scared to stand up to him to do anything about it.

"I didn't know... is he okay?" Maddy asked.

"Benjamin told me he woke up and has been asking for me, so I'm gonna go see him today," Zelena said, and then Maddy sighed.

"Look... I haven't always been the biggest fan of yours and Nate's relationship... but did something happen?" Maddy asked, and Zelena sighed before turning to face Maddy and making them stop walking.

"Okay, if I tell you something, do you swear on your fucking life you won't say a word? I'm not kidding, Maddy." Zelena said.

"Yeah. I swear." Maddy said, and then Zelena leaned forward towards her ear.

She told Maddy about the pictures she found.

"Hey, Zelena!" Cal Jacobs answered the front door, and Zelena took a deep breath.
