"I couldn't risk Gus finding out my plan and stopping me."
"So, you were…pretending to be heartless?"
"Would you like to think that about me? Would that make it easier? I didn't know if I could save her. I couldn't save Quell, I couldn't save Moorhouse. There was a good chance that she'd die too. At which point, I would have just moved on to the next…and the next, until I beat it. Sometimes, the only choices you have are bad ones, but you still have to choose."
