Tasha: Nothing. I don't want to talk about it.
Grace: Okay. You don't have to. I just want to be sure you're safe. Does it hurt?
Tasha: A little.
Grace: Let's put something cold on it, and I'll ask the nurse to take a look. Is that okay?

Grace: New bruise on Tasha's left forearm, about two inches. She said she doesn't want to talk about it.
