Jack then asked if she wanted him to pick her up from her house, but she declined his offer, however, she would be pushing for a later curfew.

Clarice took a seat next to her, and the two exchanged pleasantries, during which time, the girl said her name was Norah.

Before leaving, she gave Norah a blanket, in case she got cold.
Clarice came down the stairs to the sight of Norah petting Zingo.

Clarice went on to explain that back when she got sick, the road that she kept trying to portal to was where the foster home was located. And this was how Sentinel Services tracked them down.
