An agitated exchange begins when a desperate couple accepts $500,000 to sell their daughter; a wealthy woman, Hailey, interrupts, promising to "take you away" and fund the girl's university education. Hailey boasts she rescued and financed Yana years ago, flaunting gifts, then denounces Yana as ungrateful. The plea for rescue turns ugly—insults fly, Hailey threatens "I'll kill you," and bystanders taunt the high-and-mighty Ms. Johnson. The standoff suddenly shifts when someone declares "Time's up," and a wounded woman murmurs, "After 500 years, perhaps it's time," leaving her fate and the group's next move uncertain.
