We've already set the bar too high for these veterans. We won't be overlooked ever again. It might have taken a few knocks to the head, but even someone as strong and invincible as Marko has a weakness. Someone as mysterious as Novak, we know all about. Someone as... smart as Booker, can't solve gameplan us. So all these viruses can delay the inevitable. But you only run so far without leaving tracks. The Circus haven't finished our war, if anything, it has just begun. Novak, Marko, Booker, there will be no redemption for any of you. We will permanently stop your illnesses from spreading any further. We'll be waiting for your retaliation.

Luther blows the light out and turns around to see Mariah rocking back in forth in the corner sitting Indian style. Luther walks loser to see her eye twitching rapidly.

Luther

Your eye. It's-

Mariah

I..cou..ldn't... do it. Y-y-you all... won. But not me.

Mariah speaks with the resemblance of siri, but broken. Her words are forced out like she has trouble talking.

Luther

You can only be given so many chances befor-

Mariah

N-no. Nex-x-xt time. Next time. Th-there wil be n-n-n-no redemption.

She stands up and limps out of the room. She turns around and gives them an animated smile.
