Vadrielith was asleep. Jak was thinking. Daxter was trying to reach their packs through the door.

"Almost......"

"Daxter, what are you doing?" Jak asked.

"Trying to reach our stuff so you can use the blaster to get us out of here," he explained. He relinquished his arm. "Wait a minute... you can use your powers to break us out of here!"

"No," Jak said flatly. "If the people here find out about me and Vadri, they'll be chasing after us here, too." He looked over at Vadri who was sitting exactly as she had been the day before, her head leaning down onto her chest.

Daxter looked from Vadri to Jak and back again. "You li~ike her..."

"I do not! Not like that!"

Daxter climbed up onto his friend's shoulder. "Oh, come on, we both know you do. Besides, you're too grumpy lately. You need a girl."

"I do NOT like her like that," he said, setting Daxter on the ground.

"Have it your way; don't admit it. But I still say..."

Vadri had woken up sometime in the conversation near Daxter's first insistance that Jak liked her. She kept her eyes closed, but listened to them, and struggled not to laugh. She mumbled something under her breath and moved slightly like she was still asleep, but that little movement made Daxter cut off his sentence.

He tiptoed over to her and waved his hand in front of her face, making sure she still asleep. He turned to walk back towards Jak, but Vadri moved her hand again, still as if in sleep, and hit him in the back, knocking him down.

He stood up, dusting himself off, saying, "Sheesh... even when she's asleep she beats up on me... inconsiderate b***h..."

"Ahem." Vadri had opened her eyes to show she was awake now. "I resent that comment."
