Paul's never going to believe that Rebecca paged him, is he? Despite his work experience, he has no clue how deep the darkness runs in her.
Just like even Rebecca can't remember how she got out of the handcuffs. She's saying Brandt must have let her out, but she's got skills locked up inside she's not even aware of, much less someone like Paul. Web knows, though. He's just waiting for her to harness it with her own awareness.
That's a good point. And for the structure of the show, of course, having Web take her aside and say, "By the way, you're not really fired. I'd just like you to get on that train so you can draw the real killer out. See you at the next station" would be kind of unworkable. Thanks.
Now, if only Web would tell me whether or not to go dancing.
Web thinks you should dance.
Though Allyson thinks I'm Paul.
Fuck it, we all know I'm really Mel.
No, I think Allyson thinks you're all of them.
Numfar, do the dance of nipple clamps and leather whips!
Web thinks you should dance.
Then I'm going to have to get drunk really fast. But if Web says... Now where's my nail polish?
