[... Beth? But that was the name of Quinn's --

Oh.]

Quinn...

[Somewhat awkwardly. What does she do?]

-- I'm certain whoever you bequeathed Beth to will treat her well. This is only an event.

Rachel-- [ that 'whoever you bequeathed beth to' part is throwing her off. ] You know who I gave her to.

[Her brow furrows slightly, and she glances around Quinn, to see the name. Corcoran? But -- that didn't sound familiar at all.]

... no, I don't.

[Somewhat cautiously.]

That's not funny, Rachel.

Why would I be joking when you have just seen --

[But Rachel stops herself, and exhales, to get a grip, before she grits her teeth.]

If you don't wish to tell me, then that's your business. But please keep in mind that this is only an event. Your daughter is fine.

I'm not telling you, because you already know who I gave my baby to. You of all people should remember.

[Why in the Hell was Quinn so insistent on this? Rachel didn't know. How could she, she didn't --

... wait.]

Quinn, why I of all people?

[It's quiet, almost pleadingly.]

Because, I gave my baby to your mother, Rachel.

I don't have a mother, Quinn, you know --

... I met my mom.

[It's said almost numbly, as if it's just sunk in.

She didn't remember it.

-- her mother took Quinn's baby? Over her? Did -- that couldn't possibly be right.

She has the distinct urge to throw up. Or cry. Or both. Or -- ]

[ quinn's not thinking straight at the moment. perhaps if she were, she would remember that with rachel dying came a price -- one the other girl had hoped wasn't her voice. put two and two together. but, she's not in the right frame of mind for such rational thinking, and she leaps to what makes sense in the moment: rachel is messing with her.

she scoffs and blinks back hot, angry tears. ] I don't know what you're trying to accomplish here, Rachel, but I'm not playing this game. I knew you had it in you to be mean after what you did to Sunshine, but I didn't think you could be cruel. I really don't need this from you right now.

[ before either of them can say anymore, quinn shuts off the feed. ]

[She stares down at her PCD for a long moment, mouth slightly open, before tears begin to prickle in the very backs of her eyes. She couldn't remember. -- that was her price. It had to have been. Quinn wouldn't make something up like that and -- she couldn't remember it.

Something lurches in her throat, but she -- can't quite leave it like that. So after hours -- at least four -- Rachel sends Quinn a text message. She doesn't even know why she bothers sending it. She didn't do anything wrong. But she doesn't really want to explain herself, either -- she can when she's ready to accept her price. Or Quinn can figure it out for herself.

Either way, it needs to be said.]

I'm sorry.
