Victoria (looks down at the sick and tiny baby girl sleeping in the incubator): She won't last long
Brooke: Your heart is a stone
Victoria: You are something else
Brooke (choked up): How can you hate your own flesh and blood?
Victoria: How can you put yourself in such a predicament? I wanted more for you.
Brooke: The doctor said True's recovery will take a long time. Luckily, I have an apartment here in New York. I will stay here in New York until True recovers.
You and Millicent can look after Clothes Over Bros in my absence.
