Can you tell? Like, is it really obvious?

Brock

Yeah! She has a bump! She acts like she's proud of it.

Olivia

Well, I can't say I didnt see it coming.

End Scene.

Director's Commentary:
This story is very interesting to remember. I remember thinking that she got what she deserved, that she had to have known what she was getting herself into, that she was the same girl Norah and I got away from. But after the shock wore off I felt sorry for her. I wished that I had done more, and was a better friend to her. Tried to help her with her problems, even if I thought she was making them up. She was at a time one of my best friends, and then neither Norah nor me could take her anymore and so it stopped. I wonder what would have happened if we tolerated her for just a little longer. Maybe she just would have manipulated us more. The word "Friend" I have come to realize, is very complicated.
