"Please let me go!" Scarlet cried out in desperation. "You have exacted your revenge – it’s over! What more do you want?” "Indeed, I have. However, I’ll not stop until your entire body is unrecognizable except for my marks!”

"You'll always be my little girl." "Happy birthday, Carly." They light 18 pink candles for her.
