Isabel simply fell silent as she listened to Sam absolutely explode at William, yelling at his superior officer and making a few snide remarks about Isabel as well. She didn't want to say anything, but Sam's statement about how she was going to freeze up against that "zeke" actually hit her pretty hard. He had no idea what life in Mandred was life for her, what the lives on her hands meant for her, how serious it was for her that the one person from her community left alive hated her and deemed her a traitor. How could he ever understand? How could anybody understand? As such, she didn't even stick around to give William a chance to finish his question before she rose from her chair and excused herself from the room.<br/><br/>If Sam refused to try and listen to Isabel, or at least understand why it was that she froze up like that, then what was the point of even talking to him anymore?
