4x03 - Alone in the World snippet

'Hey.'

'Working a case?'

'Something like that.'

'Huh.' Pause. 'I got word that you wanted to see me. You got any news on the shapeshifter tech?'

'Uh, no - I just wanted to check in with you. See how you're handling everything. I know you've been going through the case files, getting up to speed. I understand that it can be ... kind of overwhelming. It's hard. What you knew, or what you thought you knew about the world no longer holds. And I just wanted you to know that I'm here.'

'You're ... here?'

'Yeah. To talk to. I mean, just - if things are getting a little too much, or you're getting freaked out.'

'I'm - not freaked out.'

[Olivia nods.] 'Good. Okay. Well, you just let me know -'

'- if I freak out. Yeah.' [slightly awkward] 'You'll be the first to know.'

[The phone rings. Both look almost ... relieved.]
