"But it's not like I found a decoder ring at the bottom of a cereal box... and thought, "That sounds like fun."" "I wish." "That would've been adorable." "Nope." "My best friend was murdered when I was 15." "Trying to figure out who did it was how I coped." "My dad was sheriff at the time." "And when he went after the most powerful man in town... he turned us both into pariahs." "Dad lost his job and I lost my friends." "Kids can be cruel, after all." "The cruelest was Logan Echolls, my dead friend's boyfriend." "Like me, Logan was fueled by rage and distrust." "He wanted to make someone pay." "It's likely those qualities are what drew us together." "They're absolutely what tore us apart." "After my dad was run out of office, he got his PI license and opened an agency."

"The price was too high." "It ruined friendships and relationships." "Cost me a lot of opportunities along the way." "So your decision to transfer wasn't related... to a certain video of you and another Hearst student?" " The sex tape?" "No need to be coy." " Leonard." "It's fine."
