The thing is, Spot's asking questions that Ezra has never really wanted to ask before, never had a moment outside of figuring out his powers, trying to survive from day to day, trying to stay hidden.

He's never talked about it with anyone because he's never had anyone to talk to about it. And now he finds he wants to talk about - to talk to Spot about it.

But it's too busy around here.

"You ever come out at night?" he asks finally. "Or - when there aren't so many kids around?"

Can we talk in private some time?
