Benson and Melanie in “Unfinished Business”

[Melanie confesses to setting Luna up to be raped]

How could you do that to another woman?

Laurie? "Luna"? She spent her whole life doing that to other women. Growing up, we didn't have a lot, and one Christmas my father got me a gold heart necklace. I knew I shouldn't do it, but I wore it to summer camp. The one day it disappeared. I was wrecked. I lied to my parents, I said I didn't like it anymore. Then, who shows up the next summer wearing my necklace? Laurie. I asked her if it was mine. She denied, but said I could borrow it sometimes. She spent her whole life doing this - stealing what is mine, then acting gracious and letting me have just a little back. It's a crazy kind of gaslighting.

So you gaslighted her right back.

WeBeWell was my idea. I made the business plan. But Luna... she's gorgeous, charming, radiant. I just wanted her to tell me she was sorry. I just wanted her to give me my necklace back.
