[The PCD clicks on and is immediately crashed-focused on a COW EYE, just to freak everyone out.]
Damn.
[the camera dips and adjusts so that the head and torso of a
fruit cow is visible. After a second, Topher appears at a very awkward angle.]Ok ok I've tried everything--and I do mean everything--to get it away but it won't just--LEAVE ME ALONE--

It looks like Ed's not the only one fruit cows like.

Not--helpful. Unless Ed knows how to get them OFF!

Oh like I do! Damnit Jim! I'm a doctor not a farmer!

So it's useless to ask you why it's pink?

Maybe it ate a pink jacket before it went after mine. The spots kinda look like strawberries.

No, Bennett doesn't care. And don't ask if she's been crying. She wasn't, or so she'll say.
Either way she follows him out after she finds her coat. And when she reaches him, there's a cow. A pink cow. Eating his jacket.
What.]
...Topher?

Nope totally not here. Totally his imagination. Right?
Right?
Damnit.]
Bennett? Hey.
[Step 1: Act casual. He takes his non chewed arm and makes a great show of petting the cow on the head.]
Ah look what's following me! Can we keep it?
[So. Fucking Casual. He is DAMN GOOD AT THIS.]

[She kinda stands there and stares and might rub an eye DON'T PAY ATTENTION TO THAT, TOPHER before...more staring.
Because really.
A pink cow.]
Sure. If you want to.
[She's feeling kind of defeated and really stupid. The idea that she might be the bad guy to Topher's...recovering accidental bad guy in terms of Rossum and their jobs isn't exactly settling easily in her mind.
The whole argument made her feel kinda shitty actually.]
I wanted to say sorry. So. Sorry.
[She blinks and then tries to approach the cow.]
Hey, leggo.

[Oh he sees that and feels HORRIBLE thanks a fucking lot Bennett.
Yes really.
A pink cow.]
...Really? I didn't expect a real yes there. Could be a good source of milk though. I guess. Maybe it's even ...pink?
[Oh baww. She's not the bad guy at all. She's just a very lovely beautiful PTSD trigger that's all! Claire's a lot worse when you think about it!
Yeah he's not feeling that great either.]
Bennett. No. If anybody's sorry its me. I was--out of line. There. I didn't...mean. I...You. It--when you died I--lost--every--You.
[He still can't say it. He still can't articulate how traumatic her murder was to him, to have witnessed it front role center. He doesn't want to cry in front of her but he feels his throat catch and his chest hiccups in barely held in hysteria.]
I'm so sorry. You're the most important person...I have here...and I...
I...
...I have a cow stuck to my arm.
[He can't help it. He bends his head down and starts to...giggle?]
