TRIGGER WARNING: Verbal abuse, mentions of suicide.

(Sepia atmosphere for this dream flashback)

(Show an angry woman—supposedly June's mum—talking to June, aged 8)

June's Mum: You are the weirdest kid I've ever seen! Why can't you show concern for other people?!

June: (stares at his mother, confused but with a blank expression in his eyes)

June's Mum: (shakes him) At least say something!

June: (now horrified, tries to run away but is too weak to pull his arms back)

June's Mum: (lets June go and watches him fall down the floor) I want to kill myself in front of you. Let's see if you'd care by then.

(Change location: Show June's Room)

June: (wakes up from the nightmare) (stares at his hand) . . . Huh.

(Establishing Shot: The office)

(Show June's laptop being spammed with messages from Dale:)

"I sent you a message and a voice mail, why didn't you respond?"

"Did you lose your phone? I'll look for it, but finder's keepers."

"Were you sleeping the whole weekend?"

Dale: He's still not responding, should I call him again?

Dale: (realises what he's doing) (tries to convince himself) I am not being clingy, I am just a worried citizen. Yep. He's my boss, and with just a little push to the dark side, I can get him to raise my Christmas bonus.

Dale: Let me just focus on work.

Miss June Brunetti: (approaches Dale's table) Hi, Dale! Will you help me set up the printer upstairs?

Dale: (jumps to her side) YES MA'AM.
