"Those that dont got it, cant show it. Those that got it cant hide it" When Zora said this she ment like when people lie, you can see right of the back that their lying. I think that Zora is right when she says this, because in everyday life, when you have something you cant hide you have and thats it. Also when yoiu dont have it, but yet you lie to the world that you do thats when the ask you let me see it and thats when you cant show what you dont have.
