Pavel grabs the collar of his mom's coat, clutching it to cover his neck and lower face, shyly.

Cal (offscreen): You didn't bite him at all, Miss Philemon. Quite the opposite, in fact!

Phaedra turns up to look at Cal, who is smiling broadly.

Cal: Apparently... you may have saved him.

Phaedra turns away again, and with her sudden realization, tears begin streaming down her face.

Phaedra: I... I didn't hurt him? I didn't... I'm not...

Phaedra collapses to the floor, sobbing again. Her head covers her tearful face. The rest of her friends join her, kneeling on the floor around her. Lani wraps her arms around Phaedra's shoulders, hugging her tightly. Irving puts a hand on Phaedra's back. Katja curls up around her, lying on Phaedra's cloak and skirt. Cal looks down upon them all, worried.

Phaedra: I'm not a monster... I'm not a monster.

Behind them all, unseen from their view... a red light barely shines through the window.
