Episode Thirty Five: Breaking the Levee
Previously: Joon, Katie Rose, and Emily finally confronted Jake about what in the world was going on with Sasha, although I don't think Katie Rose was very satisfied with his answer. Now that they know the truth, what are those girls going to get up to next?
Why are you looking at me? I've got no clue! Those chicks are crazy.
Jake: Finally, some peace and quiet.
?: "Hey Jake!"
Jake: Spoke too soon ...
Sid: "Just the man I've been looking for. You know, you're a pain in the ass to find sometimes."
Jake: "Well. That's kinda the point, Sid."
Jake: *sigh* "What do you want? We're not doing any patrols today."
Sid: "Well ... you know I love you, right? You're like an annoyingly endearing brother to me ..."
Sid: "But honestly, you know Sasha and I only go along with you, and even the organization, only because it's convenient."
Sid: "And right now, for me, this set up is convenient. I don't really have any ties outside of you guys that I give a rat's ass about ..."
Jake: "I don't want to be the bad guy here, but I've just got to do what's right for us, for Aequitas ..."
Sid: "I know Jake, but look. Sasha spares no love for you, but he puts up with it because it makes sense ..."
Sid: "But this set up is growing very, very, inconvenient for him."
Sid: "Sense will only hold him back so long Jake."
Sid: "If something doesn't change soon, he's going to do something stupid. Now that's a guarantee."
Jake: "I don't doubt you ... but my hands are tied, I ... I've never been in this situation before. If you haven't noticed it ... I'm kinda wingin' it over here. Heh. Boy ..."
Sid: "Just remember, I mean this warning in the very best of ways."
Sid: "I'm rather fond of you, so try not to piss him off, okay?"
Sid: "I can only hold the floodwaters back for so long."
------ Meanwhile ------
Eileen: "Are you sure you don't want to go with us? You're more than welcome."
Roland: "It's okay. I'd rather be on horseback, than hiking to be honest."
Eileen: "There he is! Hey 'Kota!"
Dakota: "Hey 'Leen!"
Eileen: "I'll see you later Roland."
Roland: "Wait ..."
Eileen: "Oh, heh, Roland. That was ... surprising!"
Dakota: "..."
Roland: "..."
Eileen: "Where are we hiking today? I'm so excited! I brought snacks too in case we get hungry ..."
Eileen: " ... you like fish right? I brought sushi, hope you like it!"
Roland: You'd better watch it, cur.
------ Shortly Thereafter ------
Eileen: "So how 'bout we stop for a bit? I'm still not as conditioned as you are for these long hikes."
Eileen: "Plus, I'm ready for a snack."
Dakota: "Poor ickle Leenykins tired? Aww."
Eileen: "Oh now don't you take that tone with me! You better cut it out!"
Dakota: "I'm shaking in my boots. Why don't you make me?"
Eileen: "Oh I'll show you ...! Oof!"
Dakota: "Woah!"
Eileen: "Now surrender or I'll have to ... do something unpleasant!"
Dakota: "Oh yeah?"
Eileen: "Yeah!"
Dakota: "Well ... for one ... you're sitting on my ... ah ... well, my crotch. As much as I love you there, this is a bit uncomfortable."
Eileen: "Oh! Ah, I'll uh ... yeah."
Eileen: "Heh, sorry."
Eileen: "I think is time for snack now, kay?"
Dakota: "What've you got in there anyway?"
Eileen: "I told you before we left, silly!"
Eileen: "I brought ..."
Eileen: "Sushi!"
Dakota: "This stuff is food? Sushi? Yuck."
Eileen: "Hey, if you're allowed to think milkshakes and french fries are good, I'm allowed to like sushi!"
Dakota: "Heh, you remembered? So ... sushi ... you're not Asian are you?"
Eileen: "Well ... I don't know ... I think so ... maybe ..."
Eileen: "I never knew my parents. I grew up in an orphanage."
Dakota: "Sorry, I was being sarcastic, I didn't mean to hurt your feelings ..."
Eileen: "It's okay, things happen, ya know? You didn't know."
Eileen: "Most don't."
Dakota: "Yeah, but I still feel like a jerk."
Eileen: " ... hey Dakota?"
Dakota: "Yeah?"
Eileen: "Can I ... kiss you?"
Dakota: "What? I ... that was ... that was random, I ..."
