Skye and Jiaying in “Unfinished Business”

Skye

Something bad happens every time I feel settled somewhere. I'm twenty five and I have never spent more than two years anywhere. The second I made friends at the orphanage; gone. And God forbid I called a foster family home; pack your bags. I got the news on my birthday once, which is a complete farce because I don't even know when I was born.

Jiaying

I'm so sorry.

Skye

S.H.I.E.L.D. was the closest I ever came to having a family. I belonged there, saw what I could be. Even that ended with agents hunting me through the woods.

Jiaying

We're not going to turn on you, or abandon you. This is a safe place.

Skye

See, you say that but I know you're not being straight with me? Why do you care if I stay or go and why are you...

Jiaying

July second. You were born on July second.
