Hey.
Hey.
Can I help you?
Yeah, uh, Emma Fortner.
I have an interview here.
Cody?
Your 4:30 is here.
- Well, you're very talented.
- Thank you.
Oh, I like this serpent imagery
in this one, very cool.
So, unfortunately, we really only hire
artists with prior firm experience,
or at least a degree
from a reputable design school.
You get it, I'm sure.
Yeah.
But you're undoubtedly
very talented, so
Keep up the good work.
Dammit.
Uh
- I'm sorry.
- It's it's okay.
No worries.
No no worries.
Every firm says the same thing,
and I don't have the money
to go to school.
All I have is my book.
Um
Okay, how how about this?
You met Kelly out front?
She just put in her notice.
So, we're gonna need
a receptionist soon.
I mean, it's not exactly
what you're looking for,
and the pay's not great, but maybe
you keep showing me what you can do
I'll take it.
Okay, great.
Yeah.
I wouldn't take it
on the freeway too much,
especially not in the snow.
Just need it
to get to work and stuff.
Should do you just fine, then.

CARA: Hey, everyone.
So, I guess it's like week 18 now.
Actually, 18 weeks tomorrow, it'll be,
since I woke up in those woods.
Anyway, this thing in here keeps growing
and I don't know what to do.
I got enough cash together to go
down to a clinic the other day,
but the doctor said
I wasn’t mentally fit to decide.
Do you believe that bullshit?
Was trying to tell them how, uh, you know,
the people that keep following me,
trying to make sure I don't hurt the baby
or or try and run away, you know?
I know they're listening to me.
Probably watching this video right now,
but I don't give a shit.
[DOG BARKING]
It's time people understand
what's going on out there.
This is God's criminal suicide.
This is what we all deserve.

No!
Stop! Max!
No! Stop!
