Jim only spoke to Cordy when he saw her woke up, and mildly at that.
"Quite," Cordy stretched her back—she always came to unwind when she felt like collapsing. "I'll be going now."
"Okay." Jim walked her to the door, when he smiled and said, "You really should consider my suggestion."
"Yeah," Cordy replied half-heartedly.
Returning to her car, she whipped out her phone which she put on mute. She saw several missed-calls, but ignored them and called Randy instead. "I'm going to the airport right now. Bring my luggage over."
"Yes, ma'am."
Cordy lowered her phone and stared at the view outside.

When Cordy disembarked from her private jet at the capital, Sean was already waiting at the airport.
He led her to his car, and took her straight to the venue for the fashion show—they really were short on time.
Still, he didn’t say anything, and instead asked, "When do you plan to go back?"
"That depends on your arrangements," Cordy replied flatly. "Would you let me leave after we're done touring the exhibit?"
"No," Sean answered definitively.
Cordy rolled her eyes—then why would he ask at all?
