This scene alone I think I re-wrote about 4 times.  It's really interesting to go back and see how a conversation or a bit of dialog changes over edit passes, and how it gets (hopefully) better.

Anyway, a small reveal about Eesa!  Turns out that being empathic does not mix well with social anxiety.  I like to think of it as an emotional speech jammer.

Thanks for reading, see you next week!
