Twenty First Race

[ Warden Filter ]

I'm curious. How many of you have kids back home? Or had someone to take care of, anything like that. I'm in a bit of a unique situation because when I first came here I wasn't even in a relationship, and now I'm married with kids, but I think it's done a lot towards helping my inmate. I'm not saying we should treat our inmates like they're our kids, but it's something to think about.

Still grounded, kiddo?

I was looking back over our old conversations, and I'd completely forgotten about that assignment I gave you. Made many friends yet?

Yeah, that's one way to put it.

Those are your choices. You can fight it tooth and nail and hope maybe someday the Admiral gets bored with you, or you can fight for your freedom and prove that what people think about you is wrong.

What's the difference? I've been fighting for my freedom. I haven't been doing it just to screw with Bourne. Besides, my powers are gone. I can't fight at all now, all I can do is just go along with whatever he tells me to do.

You could try talking to him as a peer, and not like he's your slave-driver.

'Peer' would mean we're equals. We're not. He has all the power.

Maybe if you treat him like a peer he'll give you some of that power back.

Maybe if he treated me like a peer things would've never gotten this bad in the first place.
