A one-shot set at the end of Episode 9. But before Beth stakes Coralline. Mick's thoughts in that brief time.
I didn't want to open the door. I could tell Beth had come with something to prove. And I didn't want to tell her that Morgan was Coralline. I had been right. But what did that mean? Coralline was human, so being with her was the same as being with Beth, right? I almost resisted opening the door, but Beth was my weakness. If I could keep her down-stairs and make her leave quickly, maybe she wouldn't find out, at least not for a bit longer. And I wouldn't see the disapproving looks, the pity, which I knew would come. As she walked in I could tell she was mad, she said she had proof. So she knew Morgan was Coralline, now I had to explain why I knew and hadn't told her. But Coralline chose that moment to walk down stairs. Beth looks at Coralline, wearing nothing but one of my shirts, her head whips around. In her eyes I see more than disapproval and pity; I see pain, and betrayal. "How could you?" And it clicks in my brain, how this must look. Suddenly it hits me how hard this must be for Beth. Someone she knew – Morgan – turns out to be the vampire who kidnapped her as a child, who terrorised her. And another vampire, who she's saved and who she trusts, her friend – me – knowing that but still, well it must look like we slept together. So here is where I choose. I have a choice. Stand by Beth and lose my chance at becoming human; or stand by Coralline and lose my reason to be human again. Two women, both whom I love, and I have to choose. It's almost a choice between evil and good. Coralline; temptress, the vamp who sired me, the one who kidnapped Beth. Or Beth; sweet, tough, always willing to help, never backing down, she does things to help others. But I love them both differently, both deeply, but both differently. With Coralline it is more an obsession, a need. But with Beth, it is more pure, I genuinely care about her, and I couldn't bear to see her hurt. "Beth it's not what you think." And it's not, not entirely.
