Bonus Scene: Not Found In Book
While spending time in a city hidden away in the Amazon Rain Forest, Scythe slowly lets her guard down around Quinn. She eventually has a moment with the woman where the spirit inhabiting the teenage girl's body reflects on her past, all of her lives that she has experienced beginning with her first on a colony formed by John White in 1587. The original song, Yesterday, was created by the Beatles. However, J2 did a cover featured earlier on this page, that has a woman singing with "man" replaced with "one", making the song more universal. It is a haunting version that reflects Scythe's memories. A montage of images and moments from her past, both from her first life and the many others she has gone through both as a spirit roaming the planet to the times she was inhabiting a new mortal body. She is confronting all that she has gone through, the weight of those experiences weighing heavily upon her. She comes to terms with who she is and the life she desires to lead in the future.
