Yikes. Rashad's blank-faced seriousness is either an innocuous affectation, in which case it's adorably dumb, or legit, which would make it menacing. Iman takes another moment to size him up. It's usually not this hard for her to get a read on someone.

Eventually, instinct and dogged optimism lead her to conclude that it's not legit, or at least not for her value of 'legit'. She snorts out a laugh and says, "Oh, honey. You're precious. Come on, then." She pats her leg as one might with a dog and turns her back on him.

"What do you do here, Rashad?" she calls over her shoulder.
