Hope for the best, expect the worst. It's one of the many valuable lessons Leslie has learned over the years. Taught by her father, reinforced by experience.

"I think not," Alfred says coolly. He does not touch her, but his stern gaze has an almost palpable effect.

Oh. Alfred is here.

Why wouldn't he be here?

Selina smiles up at him. Hard to tell what effect she's going for there, exactly. There is something she should be remembering.

He'd felt the pain from her but he'd kept his promise to her instead of haring off to try and help her. Looked like her and the Prat were going to be okay.

"Hey you."

There are a lot of people to fuss around but she does want to at least talk to him.

"She's safe." He took a step closer to her.

Selina's bottom lip quivers for a moment but she holds it together.

"Thank you."

The look on her face is one of perplexity as Leslie reenters the Clinic. An interesting mystery she leaves on the front steps. One she strangely believes she'll encounter again.

"Ah, Dr. Thompkins." Alfred, Thermos in one hand and coffee mug in the other, greets her with a small smile. "I imagine you would enjoy a hot caffeinated beverage, yes?"

She's never met a cup of coffee she didn't like. A small smile rises to her face. "Thank you, dear. Your timing, as always, is impeccable."

"One does one's best," he says modestly, offering her the cup. "I trust Mr. Constantine was, erm, moderately civil?"
