"They had the order signed and ready when I arrived. Someone made a decision somewhere, and I don't think I had much to do with it. I just had to wait for them to bring him over." "The important thing is that he's home." Mina's mother heads back to the table. Mina abandons the potatoes and trudges upstairs, trying to work out what she's feeling.
