"You've got a good nose" The Handler said "You know, planting her in psych ward" Five said as he glanced at her before looking back at Lila "Taking advantage of my simpleton brother, that was smart" he said.

"Well, the apples don't fall far from the tree" The Handler said and he turned to her, furrowing his brows as he tilted his head while Lila was choking softly.

"She's your---" "Daughter" The Handler said, cutting Five off as he pointed on Lila "Yes. And she's my only one, so I'd appreciate it if you didn't crush her windpipe" she said as Lila was gasping while grunting.

Five press his foot more against Lila's throat before removing it and Lila gasped for air before she started panting as she got to her feet.

Lila scoffed before rolling her eyes as she walked to the other end of the room. She pushed something off a table making it fell to the floor with a clatter before she walked over to a table.

"Jazz is like a beautiful woman" she said as she started walking towards one of the tables behind Five causing him to turn around "Complex, emotional, hard to please. She doesn't just give it to you...she makes you work for it, just like your girlfriend Maddie" she said "Maddie is not like that and I'm really hoping that you're going somewhere with this" he said as he glanced at her.
