Nothing in the hub sets this scene off, and nothing in the game changes when it ends. It runs from the story itself.

No act list names this scene, so a run does not place it in an act. The scene number above is its slot in the full story list, not the order you meet it in a run.

The scene

Milk
…
Odds
Sorry kiddo, just how the chips fell.
Milk
...who did this.
Odds
Complicated question. Easy answer is the Circle. Honest answer… I’d be lying if I said I didn’t have a hand in it.
Milk
so you knew. this entire time you knew.
Odds
I didn’t deal the cards Milk, just played the hand best I could. Circle knew too and didn’t say diddly. You were more useful that way.
Milk
why.
Odds
…Listen. I never wanted to hurt Honey. Honestly I was fond of the girl. She just showed up at my doorstep one day and I took her in before the Circle could spot her.
Odds
Even gave her my coat so she could get around unbeknownst to the big guy.
Milk
…
Odds
We played cards together, no bets though just Go Fish. And we talked about things. Talked about you, the world… all sorts of stuff.
Milk
liar.
Odds
No ma’am. Games done. Ain’t no point in a bluff’ if you already cleaned the table. Your sister and I… we were friends.
Milk
then why is she dead.
Odds
…
Odds
Problem with you folk… you care too much. Little bit of care is okay but too much is a dangerous thing.
Odds
You fret over every little woe, every struggle cross the whole damn cosmos. It’s too much to take on but that’s exactly what Honey did.
Odds
At first all she wanted was to get back with her sister. So she started planet hopping, coming back to my parlor when she got tired.
Odds
But she saw too much on her travels. Saw the war, saw the destruction mana wrought and saw the hunger it put in people.
Odds
An insatiable craving that gave birth to the tide.
Odds
To me.
Odds
Once she understood it all, she just couldn’t let it go. Thought she could fix everyone’s problems in one fell swoop.
Odds
So she scribbled down a little sigil in secret. Something to weaken the circle enough that she could destroy it. And destroy me. Her friend.
Milk
…
Odds
She probably would have pulled it off if I hadn’t caught on. You come from a long line of woefully miserable liars.
Odds
So I followed her and as she was battling that circle head on… well…
