"I don't have the answer yet. At first, I was just fine being friends with you, but then I became scared about you finding out I was a serial killer. At some point, I fell in love with you, because no one else ever treated me with kindness before." He pauses, reaching his hand up to his face, feeling the mask resting there. It's a perfect representation of all his thoughts, feelings and actions. Hiding from the world, other people and himself.

Adia is right. He needs to remove the mask he's wearing, both literally and psychologically.

One hand slips under the mask, about to pull it off completely...

"Don't you even think about doing that, Jeffrey." An woman descends from the staircase leading up to the Pantheon rooftop. She's wearing a white dress and jacket, giving Adia a brief glance, but focusing her attention on 'Josh'. Without missing a beat, 'Josh' stops removing the mask to stare up at her.

"Sara..." He visibly winces at seeing his 'mentor' approaching Adia, wanting to jump up and leave, but the older woman is too intimidating.

"So, I finally get to meet you, Adia Costas. You have been far more problematic than I thought you'd be." If 'Josh' was supposed to be scary, Sara is truly the epitome of something evil.
