"Look, I'm talking about saving lives, OK?" "By giving him what he craves, we satiate him for a while." "Maybe long enough to give us an advantage." "And you get what you crave." "Which is what?"

"Kieran and Jonjo were just dumping it." "There could've been a heart there." "I didn't notice." "If we'd seen a heart, we'd have been arguing about where it should go." "I think I would've remembered a heart." "While we were laying out the bones, I had a feeling we were being watched." "You had a feeling?" "Did you see anyone?" "Nah." "Look, I'm trying to establish how the heart got there." "If you saw someone, maybe they put it there after you'd gone." "I didn't see anyone." "Wait there." "Do you believe her?" "Yeah."
