She looks around, not exactly sure where she's supposed to go. She turns right and takes a few steps. She realizes that the receptionist, Audrey, seated at a reception desk located against the wall, is staring at her. There's an awkward moment where they're both staring at each other.
Audrey asks Rory if she can help her.
