INT. THE EVADER - ALEXIS' OFFICE - EVENING

Sam opens the door. Alexis is at her desk, staring into space.

SAM

Mom?

Alexis looks up. She picks up her phone to check the time.

ALEXIS

Oh my god, I didn't realize how late it was.

She starts shuffling the papers on her desk.

SAM

It's ok. I'm just grateful you're letting me use your office for an interview.

Alexis walks around her desk to get to her coat.

ALEXIS

Any time sweetheart.

Sam notices that Alexis is frazzled.

SAM

What's wrong?

ALEXIS

Nothing.

SAM

I know you. It's not nothing. Is this about your review panel at the end of the week?

Alexis hesitates to answer.

INT. THE EVADER - ALEXIS' OFFICE - EVENING

Sam pulls Alexis by the arm and they sit on the couch.

SAM

I know you're nervous but you got this. I can come to support you, if you want. I'll talk to Kristina and Molly and we'll-

ALEXIS

No! No, I don't want any of you kids there.

SAM

Ok. Whatever makes you comfortable.

Alexis nods but Sam still read into her agitation.

SAM

Then it's something else.

ALEXIS

I think I made a mistake.

SAM

What kind of mistake?


ALEXIS

Accepting Valentin's dinner invitation.

SAM

Danny mentioned to me the other day he invited you to dinner. What happened?

ALEXIS

I told him that I was in the process of getting my license back. Apparently, he already knew.

SAM

How?

Alexis gets up from the couch and starts pacing.

ALEXIS

He has his ways, so I was told.

SAM

So what's the problem?

ALEXIS

The problem is... this!
