(''Gina is laying on her stomach on a bed with a notepad in front of her.'')

'''Gina:''' Hey. Can you see me? I've never done this before, but it's kinda cool. Weird, but it's cool.

(''Gina looks up and turns the camera around to show Daniel.'')

'''Daniel:''' Hey. Am I bothering you? Can I-?

'''Gina:''' Yeah- No, of course.

'''Daniel:''' Here, let me help you out. (''takes the camera from Gina and turns it around to show her'') You can't just put it on the bed... (''sets the camera down on a chair'') ...or you won't see anything.

(''Gina laughs as Daniel plays with the zoom. He then dives onto the bed.'')

'''Daniel:''' Aaaand... (''lands on a piece of paper'') Sorry.

'''Gina:''' Hi. (''giggles'')

'''Daniel:''' Hi. (''nudges Gina'') Smile! (''Gina smiles awkwardly at the camera'') Okay, now you can go. Just talk.

'''Gina:''' About?

'''Daniel:''' Um... Well, let's start with these! (''looks at Gina's drawings'') You turn out, like, ten of them a day. (''nudges Gina'') With your eyes closed. Why do you do that?

'''Gina:''' I don't know. When I start drawing, I just- I try to clear my mind. I try ''not'' to see anything.

'''Daniel:''' And how do you know what to draw?

'''Gina:''' (''shrugs'') I don't. I mean, not really. It's kind of the whole point. It's a way for me to... access the unconscious?

'''Daniel:''' So it's like meditation? (''pokes Gina with his elbow'') You're like a zen master?

'''Gina:''' Yeah. (''grins'')

'''Daniel:''' (''laughs and pushes Gina over'') Whatever! Geez.

'''Gina:''' It's, uh... It's actually something that I taught myself during the study - the [[Hart Study]]. During the worst parts, I'd... I'd be so tired and I couldn't remember anything. And I felt like I couldn't feel anything. Do you know what I mean? (''Daniel silently nods his head'') Well, drawing always brought me back again. It was... It was just a safe place for me.

'''Daniel:''' (''picking up a few of her drawings'') So these are like your memories?

'''Gina:''' No. (''grabs for her drawings'')

'''Daniel:''' Your dreams?

'''Gina:''' No, they're nothing.

'''Daniel:''' Why can't I look?

(''Gina grabs her drawings out of Daniel's hand and rips them up.'')

'''Daniel:''' No, you don't have to-!

'''Gina:''' It's private!

'''Daniel:''' Okay, I'm sorry! (''gets off the bed'') Just stop! Sorry.

'''Gina:''' No.

'''Daniel:''' I'll j-I'll...

'''Gina:''' No! Daniel, you don't have to go.

'''Daniel:''' It's okay, I'm- It's fine. I'm sorry.

'''Gina:''' Daniel...

'''Daniel:''' I'm sorry.

(''Daniel leaves and Gina looks disappointed. She quickly turns off the camera.'')

==Notes==
* Hints in this video show that Daniel is flirting by the playfulness. In early Bree blogs he used this same kind of flirting.
* Gina's attraction to Daniel is evident in such parts as when she mockingly agrees to being the "Zen Master"
* This is the first video where Gina has a direct conversation with someone. Also, she says more than one sentence for the first time.
* Because Gina only talks to Daniel and no one else in the household (with Emma's departure), it is assumed that she has a relationship with only Daniel at the moment.

==Transcript==
(''Jonas is in a bedroom of the cabin. He opens the drawer of the nightstand to the right of the bed and searches through the contents. He then goes to the left nightstand and searches through it as well. He throws a few books on the floor and pushes pillows off the bed''.)

'''Jonas:''' When I found out that [[Emma]] had left, I lost it.

(''Cut to Jonas on his laptop, talking on the phone, in the living room''.)

I'm calling, uh, about a girl. She's probably about 14-15 years old, she's got- she's got, like, brown hair...

I must have called every taxi service and train station within a hundred miles. You know, maybe if Emma had left a lead, a clue, but... it- there j- there wasn't anything. (''Daniel avoids eye contact with Jonas as he walks through the room'') Finally I had to accept that Emma was gone and the people who were still here with me, well, they hated my guts.

(''Cut to Jonas outside''.)

Well, here I am. (''nods'') I can't get [[Things Fall Apart|Friday]] out of my head. The way I acted... the things I said... I've watched that video over and over and over again, and it's like I'm staring at a different person. You know? The things that I said to [[Jennie]] and Daniel are just-- (''laughs'') I wish I could appologize, but I don't think that they will talk to me right now.

Look, it's just that... When I first found out that Emma was gone - that she left - I felt left behind again. You know, abandoned. It just all came back to me. You know, it was like I was a kid again; aiting for my parents to come home, and knowing that they never were gonna. And then I lost it. I just- (''snaps his fingers'') snapped. I attacked the only people that, in my entire life, have stuck by me. The ''only'' people. But you know what? At least they're still here; they're still at the cabin. And I would rather have friends who hate me that are here than to be by myself.

And Emma, if you're watching this, I want you to know that I understand why you left. Well, actually I don't understand, but I trust your insticts and I'm proud of you for how tough you are. You know, it kind of reminds me of, uh, well, me, I guess. Emma, I realize it wasn't my place to stop you from leaving. You know, you can't hold someone against their will. And nobody knows that better than [[Gina]].

==Notes==
*This video is reminiscent of Jonas' hotel room scene in the video [[I'm Done]] posted after Bree's death.
*The summary has a typo, claiming Jonas' previous actions took place on Saturday. However, the events of the last video reportedly took place immediately following Emma leaving (Friday). This typo possibly resulted from the fact that the previous video was actually uploaded Saturday.
