• Danielle Brooks : [operating table hallucinations]  I said it will just take a few minutes. Please, have a seat.

  Annie Walker : Danielle! What are you doing here?

  Danielle Brooks : I'm conducting a polygraph examination. On you.

  Annie Walker : [stunned, but...]  Okay.

  [looks down] 

  Annie Walker : This isn't really a good time.

  Danielle Brooks : Funny how it's never a good time when I need something from you.

  Danielle Brooks : Did you like the miso black cod I made for your birthday last year?

  Annie Walker : [frowns]  What?

  Annie Walker : [cornered, tries:]  Yes.

  [polygraph beeps] 

  Annie Walker : Come on, Danielle!

  [smiles] 

  Danielle Brooks : [clears throat]  Do you ever intend to keep the promises you make, or do you know they're empty when you make them?

  Annie Walker : [shocked]  What?

  [looks very hurt] 

  Danielle Brooks : I didn't compose the questions. I'm just here to conduct the interview. Please answer the question.

  Annie Walker : [shakes her head]  I intend to keep every promise I make.

  [polygraph beeps, and she yells at it:]

  Annie Walker : [shakes her head]  You know what? This is over!

  [gets up, heads for door] 

  Danielle Brooks : Did you ever consider what effects joining the C.I.A. would have on your family? Were you aware of the potential dangers, and chose to join regardless?

  Annie Walker : [emphatically]  Nothing was ever more important to me than you.

  [opens door] 

  Joan Campbell : [hallucination shifts, Joan takes place of Danielle]  I don't know where your allegiance lies. But your actions suggest it isn't with me.
