Panel 1: Wilkes cautiously addresses the stranger: “Um, good morning?”
Stranger: “Don’t worry, I’m one of yours.
Panel 2: The stranger takes off his sunglasses and looks at his cellphone. He has green eyes, and his phone has a red case. “Daria Wilkes, I presume? I’m Tacitus, I came to meet with your mother.”
Panel 3: The shot zooms in to Wilkes’ face, which looks utterly shocked. “My mo…”
Panel 4: Wilkes’ expression abruptly switches to anger. “Is that what she calls herself??”
Panel 5: Tacitus attempts to respond: “It’s the simplest term for the relationship.”
Wilkes, speaking loudly over him: “She is not my mother.
Panel 6: The shot goes back to Wilkes’ face as the anger leaves just as abruptly as it came, replaced with a sort of hesitance. “And… call me Wilkes.”
Panel 7: Tacitus smiles and acknowledges: “Wilkes it is.”
Panel 8: Tacitus holds a white card with a black clip around it to Wilkes. “I’d recommend using ‘Reyes’ with anyone else, though, as that’s the last name on your new ID.”
