"Debbie, I hate to ask this but...you're going to have to finish what you started." Steve said reluctantly.
"Steve. Honey. I don't understand." Debbie said.
"We need you right now Deb to step up and grow."
"What?" Debbie asked, shocked by the suggestion.
"It's the only card we have left to play. We need you to get Sara back on track, protect any citizens in danger, and bring Erica to justice."
"I...ah..." Debbie was speechless.
"I know it's a lot to ask and I wouldn't if I could think of anything else but it's our best shot."
"Steve what are you thinking?" Beth interjected. "Letting loose that other giant only led to more destruction and lost lives. Now you want to add another into the mix? No offense Debbie." Beth said.
"Hey that's my mother your talking about lady! She doing the best she can! She can't help it if people are in her way!" Johnny yelled back at Beth.
"Maybe so Johnny, but your mom is so fixated on beating up Erica that she's forgotten they aren't fighting in gym or wrestling ring. It's a city, filled with people who are in constant danger with every move they take." Steve explained.
"I agree with you Dad. Mom values human life more than anyone. She'll protect those people caught in the middle of the fighting. Together she and Mrs. Takahashi can beat Erica and save the day." Derek said proudly.
Debbie could only look down at her feet with disgust, knowing her disregard for Cody's life lead to this whole mess. Maybe this was her one and only shot at redemption.
"Well Debbie, what's it going to be?" Steve asked.
"Steve. Honey. I don't understand." Debbie said.
"We need you right now Deb to step up and grow."
