[ She's rubbing the bridge of her nose right now. ]
And what if this place proves him wrong? He'll try again, won't he?
[ She's getting angry herself because if John's right, what Sherlock wanted to do was stupid. ]
Calling him is a good idea. I hope you can stop him. There's no reason for him to do this. [ A pause. ] Okay. I might stay here for a little bit before moving out, see if I can find anything useful--just in case I run into either one of them.
I'll let you know where I wind up.
[ A pause. ]
Good luck, John.

yeah.
[She's been selfish in the past - for self-preservation. But through it all, she still offered Matt her help.]
well, i guess we'll see. i don't want to slow down anything that could get us out of here faster, but i'm afraid of what will happen if i do stay alone. the more i think about it, the more i realize it's not really an option for me.
[She'd rather be able to stay alone, truly, go on a hunt for a church somewhere. But it's not realistic.]

Thanks for letting me know. I'll keep it close to the chest. Natasha talked to me, by the way. She wants to help with the Joker. And she said you told her about Pierce.
[Well, John doesn't particularly think Bucky should be doing this alone, either, but with that comment, he's certainly not saying that now. He'll just commiserate with Nat.]
She worries. We both do. She said she'd take care of talking Tony down, too. I'm sorry, my conversation with him didn't go terribly well. He doesn't know what's going on, but I've never been a great liar, in case you hadn't picked that up.

It means a man who was murdering people on the regular for power less than two months ago needs a little more time absent murder and attacking people before I'll consider giving them more of a leash. I appreciate that you want to help him and everyone in Norfinbury by extension, Al, but this isn't a burden you need to bear. He attacked Sherlock only recently. That doesn't inspire a great deal of confidence in me that he won't try to attack you.
Hoping she'll have more luck. Please keep me updated on your movements as you can. I'd also like you to keep a clock on your paranoia levels. We need to know if the MN treatment is wearing off and how quickly.
[There's no response for several hours, then:]
Leave it. Goodnight.
Leave it. Goodnight.
[No.]
Dr. Stein, that is a waste of resources, it might not work, and it just leaves us with the problem of you still reaching that point in the first place.

What we've seen. What we've deduced so far. Theories about what might be going on. Important events. Those kinds of things. I was keeping a record of my conversations with the Admin, as well.
It's only a waste of resources if they bring me back. Do you think I could get a DNR here?
No. I don't. I think it's an automated process and Eve is gonna ignore what you want for it.
[Ecks and Al are still children, even if they're children who can fight.]
Yeah. I have. [And his tone probably says everything.]
Yeah. I have. [And his tone probably says everything.]
I could try. Even an automated process can be canceled with the right intervention.
[He doesn't want to die. Selfishly, wrongly, he wants to live. But he doesn't have that option, he's too dangerous, his leash is stretched and snapped and it's only his current mental stability keeping the others safe.]

[John is going to scream. How many men is he going to have to talk down from suicide here?]
Dr. Stein, you are not better off dead. You're better off treated.
Dr. Stein, you are not better off dead. You're better off treated.
Currently I have contributed nothing to our escape or survival. I am a drain on resources. I have attacked and injured multiple people who should have been able to trust me. My survival benefits no one.
Your future hasn't been written, Dr. Stein. That's your past. You have the power to change things going forward if you feel as though you aren't contributing enough to warrant concern.
