Emily: The way you talk about her; it's obvious there's a connection. Is it more than that? Do you love her?
Miguel: What? No, no, no, God no, Em. It's nothing like that. There is no... Look, I went from hating Adelita to understanding her and eventually respecting her. I mean, the things she did. For these past few months watching her singular devotion. I mean, this selfless need to help her people. I mean, it's potent, and it's beautiful. I grew envious. I wanted some of that.
Emily: Mm
Miguel: You're right. I've gone out of my way to be around Adelita, but it wasnt about her. It was about me.
Emily: You know, the things you did in the other world, the conflict that spun inside of you. I was always your touch stone, Miguel. You know, our family, our lives, your business, everything on this side of the border was honest and real. That's the thing you wanted to be around — that's what you thought was beautiful.
Miguel: Oh, I still do, Mi Amor.
