Camilla's eyes narrowed. "Are you accusing me of something?"
Nadine shook her head. "I wouldn't dream of it. But your fear makes me wonder what it is you have to be afraid of."
"Nothing," Camilla said, instantly on-guard but pretending to be calm. "I haven't a thing in the world to hide, from you or anyone."
Nadine smiled, showing her teeth. "That may be the case," she said, "but maybe you should be afraid of what people are hiding from you."
Camilla whirled to face her nemesis. "What is that supposed to mean?"
Nadine shrugged. "Oh, nothing. I was merely playing devil's advocate."
"Oh, you're in league with the devil alright..."
"CUT!" The director hurried onto set. "Brilliant! Ladies, that was wonderful. Marvelous. Astounding." For a soap opera, anyway, he thought.
