Hey, it's Sarah. Leave a message.

[subourbon]

And when were you planning to do that?

[coppelganger]

When I had more information, I guess.

[ If Sarah sounds defensive, that's because she is. Crossing her arms, she stares Alison down, waiting for her to continue. ]

[subourbon]

Well, a heads-up would have been the appropriate thing to do!

[And if Alison is angry, it's because she is. Mostly because that would have given her the opportunity to not react in the most paranoid and bitchy way possible.]

[coppelganger]

... Yeah, sorry.

[ What else is she supposed to say? ]

[subourbon]

Look, I know you have a lot going on right now. But something like this is important. And I'm pretty sure I made a terrible impression.

[She did. She really did.]

[coppelganger]

[ "It's fine, you made a terrible first impression with me too" is right there on the tip of her tongue, but she manages through sheer force of will not to say it. She understands why Alison is pissed off, but there's nothing she can do to change the way things went. ]

I know it's important, Alison. Trust me, I wouldn't have put off telling you if I thought there was a chance something bad might happen.

[subourbon]

That "something bad" could have been our cover story being blown! Do Cosima and Felix even know about her yet?

[coppelganger]

No. I don't think so.

[ Look on the bright side, Alison. At least you're not the last to know. ]

[subourbon]

[For god's sake, Sarah!]

Well? Shouldn't you call them to let them know now?

[coppelganger]

Fine, Christ, I'll call them. [ It's like she can never do anything right! ]

[subourbon]

[Watching and waiting to make sure this happens!]

[coppelganger]

[ What? No! ]

Alison, I'm not having these conversations while you stare at me. God's sake.

[subourbon]

Fine, I'll go. But next time you see another one of us wandering around, make sure you tell me straightaway!

[Leaving in a huff and slamming the door behind her.]
