But, can I get a second opinion on the job thing? There's a bunch of us that've been here long enough to know if it's a sham or not. [She leans back in her chair, bracing her boots against the edge of her desk, running her fingers through her hair.]

Look, last time I had to do a few hours "work" -- [She brackets the word with finger quotes.] -- for secure room and board really didn't work for me or my friends. [Weapon X project, she's looking at you.] I just want to make sure that kind of mess is never going to happen again.

[The deputising was bad enough, thx.]

[That's a nice voice to hear again. She'd since him since the whole altar mess, but seeing him dead unnerved her and that makes her a bit worried all the time.]

Nice to hear some validation. Everyone else's been saying I should take the money and shut up.

Then I guess you're just playing along to see where it'll take us?
