Leaving her boots in the living room, Karen pads into the kitchen in her multi-layered socks and stops just behind the chair adjacent to Claire. "I got to the top of the cliff wall."

There's probably a lecture forthcoming about risking her neck, and Claire wouldn't be wrong, but the fact remains that the achievement is significant. "I wasn't able to actually see over the top, but I touched it. I literally had my fingers over the edge," Karen continues as she slides into the chair. "I don't think anybody's gotten that far up before. Not even Frank when he was here." And god knew Frank wasn't concerned about seeing after his own safety, so it wouldn't have been for a lack of trying.
