I'm not sure. Maybe she didn't want Bella to have to keep coming in, maybe it costs more, maybe she thinks it might be painful for Bella. She didn't mention that. Also, I could've sworn I had to get a urine sample from Rocky before, can't remember with what, but for some reason I feel like I had to do that, maybe it was a dream or a deja vue thing.
