"I don't *want* you to walk away, Raven.  But I don't know what else to do right now.  If the fucking chip were out, right now, Lindsey McDonald would be expecting to have a very bad evening when he walked out the door. But he knows he can get away with tormenting me and I can't hurt *him*, so I just have to try to figure out what else to do.  And you shouldn't have to stick around for it.  You've already done more for me than anyone should have to."
