[ Things hadn't worked out the way Esther had planned them to, that's for sure. She'd been perfectly happy minding the east side and the bridges, making sure that the boroughs stayed where they were and kept the worst of the violence off Halve Maen territory. She hadn't meant to be queen.

Turns out she was too damn good at the job.

I've got a whole laundry list. [ A beat. ] If you think they'd listen.

[ She gives him a look, albeit mild, that makes it seem like he's just called her a dirty word. ]

[ Esther looks away, lets her mouth crook as she exhales and shakes her head. She gave up on sentiments like what am I going to do with you a long time ago. They both know what she intends to do with Lew. She intends to keep him. ]

And on the record?

[ He smiles, then, the expression a little smaller and less meant for a public front than it usually is. Lew perfected his for-the-camera persona a long time ago, and it's only Esther that ever gets to look behind that facade. ]

On the record, I'd be happy to offer them my opinion on the matter if they care to ask.
