The Expecting

Hey, hey, hey. It's okay, it's okay.

Take it easy.

Hey.

Hey. Can I help you?

Yeah, uh, Emma Fortner.

I have an interview here.

Cody? Your 4:30 is here.

- Well, you're very talented. - Thank you.

Oh, I like this serpent imagery in this one, very cool.

So, unfortunately, we really only hire artists with prior firm experience,

or at least a degree from a reputable design school.

You get it, I'm sure.

Yeah.

But you're undoubtedly very talented, so...

Keep up the good work.

Dammit.

Uh...

- I'm sorry. - It's... it's okay.

No worries. No... no worries.

Every firm says the same thing,

and I don't have the money to go to school.

All I have is my book.

Um...

Okay, how... how about this? You met Kelly out front?

She just put in her notice.

So, we're gonna need a receptionist soon.

I mean, it's not exactly what you're looking for,

and the pay's not great, but maybe you keep showing me what you can do...

I'll take it.

Okay, great. Yeah.

I wouldn't take it on the freeway too much,

especially not in the snow.

Just need it to get to work and stuff.

Should do you just fine, then.

Hey, everyone.

So, I guess it's like week 18 now.

Actually, 18 weeks tomorrow, it'll be, since I woke up in those woods.
