[Eddie's not sure what he'll do if this does turn out to be some kind of elaborate dream or a hallucination or something. He's also not sure how it could be anything else. He'd seen her that night, and it didn't seem like something a person could come back from. She feels real. Alive, even, and Eddie wants that to be true more than he's ever wanted anything else in his life.
She doesn't look mad, at least, and he's relieved. He's certainly given her a big reason to be upset with him recently, so it's nice to see that he hasn't added one more to the pile.
The ding of the elevator derails that train of thought and then she's tugging him through the doors by the hand. Eddie allows her to lead him into the hallway and then it hits him that this is really happening. He opens his mouth to say something, to fill the silence, and realizes he has no words.
For once in his life, Eddie Munson is speechless.]
