The siblings have been listening quietly and intently to her story. Now, Vanessa claps her hands on her knees and stands with a sigh.

VANESSA
Fine. I'll turn you.

MARI
(uncertainly hopeful)
Right here?

VANESSA
Right here, right now. No time like the present.

RON
Is this really the best -

Vanessa maintains eye contact with Mari.

VANESSA
Shut it, Ron.

She takes a considering look at the teenager.

VANESSA
(quietly intense)
I was a mother once, and honestly, fuck your mother. If she made you feel like shit, she didn't deserve you. You know what I would give to have Hannah back again?

RON
We could at least wait until we're in a motel or something -

Vanessa squeezes her eyes shut, not even bothering to turn back towards her brother.
