: You have a point…
Maverick
: I know I do.
Maverick
: Okay, “The last thing I saw was my alarm clock flashing 12:07 before she pushed her long rotten nails through my chest, her other hand muffling my screams. I sat bolt upright, relieved it was only a dream. But as I saw my alarm clock read 12:06 before I heard my closet door creak open.”
