It was a static episode, filled with people staring at one another. Back, forth, back, forth, standing like statues. Audrey never approached the desk. Albert and Cole stood there, separated, staring, until Cole bridged the gap by reaching out to hold Albert’s shoulder. Dougie and his son stand separated in the backyard, the space between them vast.

It’s interesting BECAUSE it’s frustrating. Something else starts to happen in those spaces between people, there’s reverb, there’s emotion, there’s memory and the unspoken. <\/p>\n
