[ She's getting a read on him, even if she's still quite emotional and distrustful. That has to mean something. Elizabeth wasn't always the best judge of character but he'll find out why this is important to her soon enough. ]

The man made himself sick at the mere mention of a metaphor! Jack expressed that the man is a stalker, but harmless. I'm not sure if I can believe Jack when he was so keen on boosting himself as some hero like this is a Howard Pyle novel. [ There was nothing merry about these men. ] Jack spoke with me privately about wanting to offer me a clause... one that would allow me to write my findings down on a terminal, but I don't suspect he's fond of me at the moment.

[ :( Guys, stop being selfless? ]

Rhys is someone I do plan on keeping my eye on but I'm not keen on pushing it if he plays the - as you say, patsy - role so well.

[ But... right, back to the Serious Conversation at hand. ]

... Before this, before all of this... if my memory isn't failing me.. [ There's a sarcastic laugh there. ] ... I spent my entire life in a tower. Alone. Guarded and learning about some... powers no one could explain. I had no one, but someone helped me escape - and... I realized what that tower was. It was a cage and I was some experiment. My entire life, mister, was watched through two-way glass and recorded as part of some grand project.

[ Comstock... he's the one who put her there, who tried to stop her escape. Elizabeth stammers, not willing to reveal anything else. ]

It hits home for me and I think that... may be why Judy told me about their true roles privately.

[ She doesn't tell the whole truth... she's gauging for a reaction. ]
