That study that he was doing to watch us and then set off us like mice around this special little experiment. How many people are on this base? Sixteen on this one.

Are you getting tired of my reminiscing? Are you joking? I have so many questions. I feel we've barely scratched the surface. Oh? Kozlovsky was Itobal. Itobal of Tyre? Oberim? Or... I forget the other names. His His tears, they really have the power of healing?

Or, that's a metaphor, right? Right. How did the two of you meet, anyway? Oh, and you said Amelia Earhart, I mean, Martha, no, I mean, Amelia, saved you. You said you were running away. From what? The Amelia Project before Amelia. That's something I really know nothing about. I mean, for all that happened before, I tried to glean what I could from the very, very sparse notes in the archives, but... Case files used to be an afterthought.

Yeah, that's putting it generously. I can't believe you didn't put more effort into preserving these stories. Well, the next part of the story is about the Brotherhood of the Phoenix. Oh. But first, there is something I need to do. What? I need to make a phone call. Wait, you want to go back to the office now? No, no.

Oh, yeah. You took your phone. But why? You never take your phone. You don't believe in mobile phones, remember? Yes, well, this is important. Who are you calling? I won't be long. Stroke the cat while I'm gone. Oh. Okay. Oh, come on. Pick up Lorraine. Congratulations. You've reached Lorraine Fletcher. If you're not serious about this,

hang up. Now. Please, please pick up. Uncle, how was that? Mysterious enough for you? No, seriously. Thanks for taking the time to call and I'm sorry I'm out.

I'm sure you have a waiting room full of oil shakes, rogue spies and lying tamers to interview, so I won't ramble on. Oh, and yes, uncle, the line is secure and I haven't given the number to anyone. This is just for you and me. Leave your message after the beep. Lorraine, if you're there, please pick up.

I know we didn't leave on the best of terms, Lorraine, if you're there, please pick up. I... I know we didn't leave on the best of terms, Lorraine. I... I don't want you to remember me like that. I'm sorry. I'm here with Alvina, telling her my story. I would love you to be here too. At least call me back. I love you, Lorraine.
