Pepper, have a drink with me.

What is it?

Don't give up on your team, okay? You can stay away as long as you need to, but don't give up on them. They're still your team.

You don't give up on family.

Even if you move out of the house.

They know I'll still be there if they need me. Or at least they should. I did tell them all.

It's just rough at first, when you go out alone for everyone.

It's actually not that bad.

Uh huh, sure.

I've been gone a day. How bad do you expect it to be right now?

Well, if it was my brother's team I'd say not that bad, but with your team there's Murdock and I don't think he takes change very well.

He's not really a fan of the number three.

You'd know better than me.

Haven't you ever heard that bad things come in threes?

I have but I'm one of those optimists who doesn't believe that stuff.

The eternal optimist. Right. How could I forget something like that?

You're distracted, it's okay.

What can I say besides beautiful woman can be distracting?

You'll have to find another, I'm with Hannibal.

Looking isn't a crime.

That all depends on what you're looking at.

I'm not sure I can tell you that.

I don't have the right security clearance, right?

Sorry, Jenna. There's just nothing I can do about it.

Don't worry about it. I bounce back.

I knew there was a reason why I liked you.
