I'm sick of this library gig. When do I get my powers back, again?

Ruling the barge yet?

Even if doing 'what it takes' potentially hurts others and doesn't get any results?

I... I know, but would he want you to hurt people on his account? Really?

No. But I need to get him back.

Which I understand, but if you do that by using all sorts of violent methods that he wouldn't like - you wouldn't want to get him back and have him appalled at what you'd done to do that, would you? Because if someone had done that for me, I'd be disgusted.

Saying 'pretty please' didn't exactly work, did it?

Neither did threatening me with electrocution. There's some limitations which you have to deal with, rather than try to get rid of.

I can't just deal, not when it comes to Peter.

Which is why I want to help you, but demanding to be let off, and threatening me to get me to do it aren't a solution.

You have to work with what I can give you. I can't do that. That's a limiation I simply can't break.

Okay, I was bad and wrong and threatening people isn't anything I should ever do. Pretty please may I go home?

The point was, I can't let you. I can only let you when you graduate, and simply repeating back to me that you shouldn't have threatened me isn't really enough to get you that far.

You are, Elle, but not enough for me to let you go.
