[Laura just woke up, and has no idea about the strangers on the network. Her eyes are squinted half-shut to guard against the light.]

What the hell happened? Last thing I remember is--

Neil, where are you?!

SURPRISE SPAM. sorta.

[Paddy, having spotted she was back with them, raced over to the infirmary. He hadn't been paying much attention to the people around today, and certainly didn't feel like asking around for anyone specific. He was too busy waiting for Laura to come back.]

Neil's alright. Some weird shit's going off today, but I don't really care. I want words with you.

[He didn't exactly sound like they'd be nice words.]

[Laura doesn't look at Paddy. She stares at the wall over his shoulder.]

Yeah, I figured. Go ahead.

[Paddy swallowed hard and looked at his hands for a minute, because the overwhelming feeling here isn't anger, but guilt.]

I ain't going to piss about and be Mr Nice Guy right now. I'll tell you it how it is. You lied to me. Be fucked if I'm gonna be lied to again. I searched your room, and took everything you had left in there. I will continue to do so every day after you're outta here. After two weeks of that, and nothing being found, it'll be once a week. After that, we'll see. You're also getting searched after every fucking port. I'll ask Uhura or Parker to do it. This ain't happening again on my watch. I care about you too fucking much to let it.

[He sighed, wanting to draw a line under that, and not really wanting to allow room for objections, because it was happening one way or another.] And now... how is it? How're you?

All I had in there to start with were the pills. They were like...a safety net. I didn't even plan on using them, because just knowing they were there made me feel better. It's not like I could tell you--you wouldn't have understood. I got the other stuff after you searched my room for the first time. I figured if you couldn't trust me not to have coke in the first place...

[She doesn't continue that thought.]

How do you think I am? If BOB hadn't killed me, I would've died that way sooner or later.

backdated, obvs

[youngprettygirl]

Laura?

Laura Palmer?

[intofireforever]

Yeah, that's--

[Blink. Blinkblink. Holy shit.]

...Audrey? Is that really you?

[youngprettygirl]

[Audrey looks plenty disbelieving herself.]

Aren't you dead? Everyone's trying it figure out who did it.

[intofireforever]

I'm dead, but a lot of people here are. It doesn't really stick.

You want to know who did it? I doubt you'd believe me, but I don't care. I need to tell someone from back home.
