George Karim: Ever since you hired her, things have gone downhill. What if she’s unhinged?
Anthony Lockwood: She’s not unhinged.
George Karim: You’re hardly the best judge at these things. You need normal people around you.
Anthony Lockwood: You really think you’re normal, George? If you were, you’d have stayed at Fittes, and we’d never be friends. You know, everyone pretends they’ve got things under control. DEPRAC, the big agencies. It’s all a facade. The world’s mad, and normal never fixed anything. We understand that. It’s our USP. You get way too lost in the research, but you find the gold that everyone else misses. And, yeah, Lucy can be a bit… quirky, but she’s one of us. I’m sure of it.
