Offscreen(Farook): Wisdom. Ethical conduct.

Alan: You’re, uh…hurting her…just…

Farook: We must separate ourselves from everything in this life that causes our suffering. …the attachments that will only bring us sorrow.

Narration(Rafe): Just a day ago Farook had presented Alan with a choice— forsake family for the monastic life of a Diamond Warrior, learn the mental discipline to resist the telepath. Or remain peripheral. Unaccepted.

Alan: I’ll take care of her. Just give her to me.

Farook: Who did this?! Who could have done such an evil thing? The evil one! The telepath!

Kore: Enough of this.

Kore: Jones is hardly irreplaceable in the scheme of things.

Kore: Rafe, you are the only one he’ll listen to.

Farook: It’s your kind who did this. Esme knew you were one of them!

Alan: I agree with Kore, we must have clear heads.

Alan: Kore, are you a telepath?

Kore: Worse than that, far worse, wouldn’t you say, Raphael? After all, you were there.

Kore: I didn’t believe you until I saw their faces in your mind.

Alan: Obviously the authorities know of our hideout, in another minute the troopers will come if Xander has indeed done this. There’s nothing more to be done for Esme, James…Rafe…

Kore: I can take her back to the house if you’ll permit me. I can take all of us.

Farook: No!

Alan: Good. I will, whether or not the others consent.

Farook: NO!
