"I'm pretty much brilliant," she agrees brightly, conscious of the tape bumping against her hip as they walk. They're not far from their building and she shifts the VCR long enough to dig her keys out of the little pocket in the front of her bag, wondering if they're really going to find anything. If she wants to find anything. She's always felt comfortable here, more comfortable than she ever did on the island and maybe it's just part of growing up, being away from home, but she feels like this is probably a better place for her than Overland Park.

Her family was always the only thing that would have kept her there, she thinks. But her mother had been getting better and Kate's been away for so long now that she doesn't think they really need her anymore.

She doesn't want to leave. Trying to figure out the envelopes, getting the tape, it's all just a game to her, but she suspects it's not just a game to Newt and she finds herself hoping there's nothing on the tape. She doesn't want him to leave.

Twisting the key on the lock, she holds the door open for him to go in, then asks, "What if there's something on the tape?"
