For reasons she couldn't define, Lexi felt that pleading was the only language it really understood. As she turned to her right, she noticed the television screen had come alive with a storm of grey static. A scene from a movie was playing, a film she'd watched a few times because it featured two of her favourite actors—Jason Statham and Brad Pitt. It was the scene with Vinnie Jones.
