Unlike Everett back then, who at least cared about Dorothy. He was afraid that without him, no one would be able to develop an antidote! But Lane was different. He wanted the antidote, and without anyone else able to make it, he was in the clear.
"Quincy, why should I believe a word from the living? If you were dead, it'd savea whole lot of trouble!

"Lane! Don't do this to her! If you're angry, take it out on me!" "Why would I do that? I'm all for you, Dorothy! Just you wait a little longer...we'll be together soon enough!" "Have you lost your mind?" Dorothy realized something was terribly off with Lane, "If you kill Quincy, you're going down too!" Lane chuckled, "Sounds like you care aboutI'd love to believe that But I'm not stupid. I know you're more worried about Everett! Afraid that if Quincy dies, no one will be there to save him, right?" en.kikistories It was then Dorothy understood why Lane was holding Quincy captive.
