I Can Hear Their Thoughts — Episode 2: Her Best Friend Ordered Me

In Episode 2, a new order lights up Lucas's phone. Melissa wants protection, plus a note: "Bring yourself too." He already knows that if Barbara is there, his head may not survive. Sure enough, the address is a neon-lit club and both girls are waiting. Barbara crosses her arms and asks if he shouldn't be working, while her thoughts whisper for him to stay.

It was his last delivery, so they pull him onto the dance floor, one girl on each side and two inner voices fighting over whose hands are on him. His nose bleeds again and he slips out to the hallway. Barbara follows, claiming Mel sent her to check he isn't dying. Then she kisses him, and in her head she guides his hand higher. "That didn't happen," she says, walking away, still wishing he'd come over tonight. The subtitles make the gap between words and thoughts hit hard.
