Was Elliot going to hold the things Avery said in a fit of rage against her for the rest of their lives?

After dinner, Avery dialed Mike's number, then put her phone on speaker and began to clean the

Mike chuckled and said, "I was just worried you think I'm out messing around. You don't need to keep
