I don't expect you to believe me when I say this, but I'd be here for you even if the Admiral decided to take back my deal. Not any random inmate I might have been paired with if not you, I don't think, but...
[She swirls the glass around a bit, and then swallows the rest of her drink.]
...after what my life was like, and knowing yours, I want to do for you what Paddy did for me.
[The glass clinks down against the bar again and she signals for another one of the same.]
I don't know what the Admiral gets out of all this, if anything. To be honest, I don't really think of him much until he makes his announcements, or I'm thinking over my deal.
But thank you, for wanting this to work out for me. I wanted Paddy to get his deal, too--it was to save a girl's life--but since I didn't expect to ever graduate, I thought the only way he'd get it was to request a different inmate.
[She drinks from her fresh glass.]
I really hope you have more faith in yourself than I did in me, when I was in your shoes. I know you're going to graduate with flying colors.
