[38] [Voice] - Private, Eames

[Have a long pause before he starts talking. The pause of someone who's just found some quite important stuff missing from their room. And a rather familiar poker chip.]

I got your calling card, Eames. Should I be anticipating a trip to zero? [He's more worried about the antenna than the fear toxin.]

Another excuse. Wardens protect their inmates; inmates shouldn't need to be aggressive. I'd allow you to argue for the defensive case, but the amount you're talking about is purely offensive. That's exactly the kind of attitude which justifies other inmates' endeavoring the same protections.

Some wardens don't protect their inmates. They attack them and try to force them into behaving how they want them to behave. Then they're surprised when the inmate claims their ground by striking back, whether against them personally or the other wardens.

Forgive me for not seeing Capa as a threat to his inmate. He actually seems quite keen in protecting her at every turn. You said yourself your other friend was an inmate and I fully intend to protect you. So who is it that you're worried about, precisely?

Capa tries to be protective, but his incompetence is more likely to harm her than anything else. But that's not the issue.

[Honesty time.] It's a trust issue. I cannot simply turn my friends over to a warden.

Bloody hell. It's not as if I'm forming a witch hunt. I'm not even asking for their crimes. I'm asking you to trust me to know how much of a danger they have the potential to be, so that I can be prepared to handle them if the situation arises. If they don't do anything, then I don't act either. The fact is, I'm going to be investigating whether you tell me or not; the only difference is that, without your help, I have to involve a few of the others.

How will you trust me? What more do you want, because we are running out of time until I'm not able to reasonably protect you anymore. If anything-- anything happens with any of them and I'm not able to take care of it?.. I wouldn't be able to protect you from them.
