Amunet and Caitlin in “Unfinished Business”

Amunet

Katie, do you know what I was doing before I became this successful entrepreneur you see before you today?

Caitlin

Mean British nanny?

Amunet

[smiles] Hmm. No! I... was a stewardess. You see, unlike you, I did not have fancy scientists for parents. I did not collect scholarships or attend fine institutions. My career options were... limited. So, I spent my days in a quaint little skirt and bear serving coffee to handsy pilots, powerless to stop them. But then the particle accelerator exploded, and I was powerless... no more. Heh. I showed those pilots the error of their ways.

Caitlin

Why are you telling me this?

Amunet

Because.... obtaining my powers is quite literally what made me me, but the same cannot be said about you. There are any number of doctors I could have come to for this procedure. I did not. I came to you. Because you, Caitlin Snow, are, and have always been, remarkable. You are bright. Resourceful. Resilient. And I am more than certain you can do this. [pause] So. With that said, unless you want to spend the rest of your medical career in the morgue, I suggest you buck up, darling. You know. Pull on your big girl pants, and do the bloody thing.
