>"Ash would never have done that if she didn't think things with Carmody were a mistake she needed to fix somehow, though. And yeah, Carmody protected you in from the attack, and Ash Romero's a problem we can handle. But she's gonna keep dragging problems in front of you, and some of 'em are gonna be ones we don't WANT to have to handle. Did you also hear where Carmody said in her promo that she's not joining the Divine Angels, and she'd 'rename that arena the Nicole Kade Memorial Building the hard way?' Haven't we had enough of that, right now?"Colby looks at Nikki Kade in the hospital bed.
>"You've been doing a lot of nice things for her, Priscilla. Things you haven't done for anyone else, things I wouldn't even ASK of you myself. And now as a repayment, she's gonna put you and me both, unjustifiably, in a position we'd rather not be in. And when the time comes we both know what the right answer is, and I know you don't like it any more than I do. But the time for heading all this off by forcing her to quit the WWA and move back home with my parents may be running REALLY short now, and she's starting to grow roots. It sounds like Jennifer's been trying to drive her off, and I've been trying to convince her that being here in the WWA at all is NOT a good idea. But it's like I told you from the start, she's stubborn. And we may just not have been firm enough with her."Realizing that this is as much as she's ever defied or disagreed with Priscilla Divine before, Colby Jefferson offers a weak, almost apologetic smile. Then she turns to Nikki Kade on the hospital bed.
>"So..... are you really feeling better, Nikki?"
