[ Exhausted or not, Effie waits for him. Gone is the majority of her makeup and earlier styling. For anyone but Saul she may have tried to redress, but he'd already seen her wigless and racoon eyed in the morning and she was just too tired to bother.
So she sat on her couch in a silky robe and slip, her blonde hair pinned up and face shiny and bare, highlighted only by a pearly moisturizer (lip gloss and mascara didn't count, did it?).
The knock at her door was enough to wake her up from a light, troubled nap and she crept to the peephole in her slippers to check before opening. After all that had happened she was still shaken and a little scared, but seeing Saul's face she opened it immediately. ]
