[ Is there anything left that can be used against Root that isn't patently obvious? She doesn't think so. That's why she was threatening; the weak points are too obvious not to defend preemptively. So it's not carelessness that makes her free with information here -- it's self-assurance. They're not impenetrable, she hardly thinks they can withstand anything or confront any foe. But Root does think she's through living her life in fear for what others can do to her. She is who she is. Carver can try it if he wants and see how it goes. They can see who comes out better for it. ]
I mean, have you seen her? She's incredible. I wasn't going to let someone like that go without saying something.
And then she kept... you know. [ Root waves a hand in the air. ]
She thought I wasn't serious. Didn't know what I was asking. Do I strike you as someone who doesn't know what I'm doing? Honestly. [ Root loves Shaw as she is but really, did they have to spend that long doing this dance that Root couldn't know what she was asking for? It really was ridiculous. ]
