...Thank you.

What can you do, though, apart from what I've done?

Research, I suppose. You've probably been too busy playing white knight to figure out any real solutions.

[An unhappy pause.]

I'm not playing at anything. I'm using the solution that was used last time and... [okay, calm down.]

Sorry.

And I appreciate the offer, but never. I can't. I put my life on the line, I wouldn't ask anyone else to do it for me.

[bigbad]

You too.

Tell them before me if you find anything.
