[Doctor Atkins]
Where were you Pb?
[Pb]
(Through the mic)
I was out, getting some air.
[Doctor Atkins]
You know that I hate lies.
[Pb]
(Through the mic)
Lies are just secrets that no one knows.
[Doctor Atkins]
Very funny, now what happened? I see the bruises.
[Pb]
(Through the mic)
... I went to find the Colonel's killer.
[Doctor Atkins]
You did what?!
[Pb]
(Through the mic)
It's not a big deal, I just wanted to talk to him.
[Doctor Atkins]
How did you find him in the first place?
[Pb]
(Over the microphone)
I used one of the phones from the captured inmate at the shooting.
[Doctor Atkins]
You shouldn't be talking to him.
[Pb]
(Over the microphone)
He told me some very interesting things.
[Doctor Atkins]
Like what?
[Pb]
(Over the microphone)
Doctor Atkins, where do I come from?
[Doctor Atkins]
... What do you mean by that?
[Pb]
(Over the microphone)
All the memories I have are being here. Did I have some kind of life before all of this?
[Doctor Atkins]
... It's hard to say. I only know as much as you know about you.
[Pb]
(Over the microphone)
Anything else I want to know can be found in my personal file right?
[Doctor Atkins]
That's correct.
[Pb]
(Thinking)
Will you take me to it after I finish recovering?
