"We had such high hopes for your mother."
It's time to storm the palace. But first, a diverting conversation with an elderly woman who's definitely not scary beyond all reason. Surely, Guard and June will survive on their own while Isaac and Safra bust Hank out of prison. Right?
Probably not.

Probably not.
