　　'Play along, Jesse- please!'

　　"Rake, what are you doing?!"

　　'Showing them what they need to see.'

　　"I told you I'd get you away from him," Rake growled, his eyes locking on mine with that terrifying glint in them, his gaze piercing. "I told you it would cost you- well… here we are. I did my part, now it's time for you to do yours."
