[Voice; Monday morning]

[hypospraying]

[When Christine awakes to the sound of the pod's door unlocking, she's disoriented for only a moment before she remembers what happened. Her second death. She didn't like that (who would, though?). She was on her third life now. How many more would she get?

But, not willing to look a gift horse in the mouth, she pushes open the pod and opens the trunk at the foot, getting dressed. Once that's done, she sits for a bit to cry before finally turning on her communicator and addressing everyone.]

It's Christine. I'm... back again. From the pods. Did those monsters come back? Is everyone safe?

[She pauses to take a shaky breath.]

What day is it?

[There's a pause before she answers and when she does, she sounds upbeat.]

Bring your scanner with you just to check me out, okay? That was my main reason for wanting to come to the hospital. And what'll you be cooking for me, hmm?

[He doesn't buy that upbeat, but if he's not asking questions of her, maybe she won't be asking questions of him.]

Scanner and brunch, got it. And as for what I'll cook, you'll just have to consider the mystery an incentive to come see.

[It's a decent trade off, not asking how the other one feels.]

You sure know how to intrigue a girl. Okay, I'll call you after I've cleaned up.
