Linden: "Your zen rock garden and fountain will help me relax, Coworker."
Holder: "Wait, was that an actual joke? Because my dojo is a sanctuary of light."
Linden: "It was a joke, Coworker. I will never relax."

Downstairs, the smoking person who has been watching them all night lights a cigarette: It's scary Chief Nicole's scary Chief of Security, scary Chief Roberta.

DAY TWENTY

Linden: "Good morning. I am uncharacteristically sweet and charming before I've had my coffee."
Holder: "I am unsettlingly hot this morning, so I guess we make a weird pair. Have I ever told you about free-range chickens?"
Linden: "Sleeping on a bed. It is pleasant."
Holder: "Here's some coffee. I am also making eggs with habanero jelly for you. I like to pretend we're a family because I am pretty close to freaking out a lot of the time."
Linden: "I had not noticed your affect. Or any social cues."

Holder: "I see you are staring at my books. I buy them in bulk, because I am a seeker after wisdom. Anything up there sending sparks through the tangled mess of wires you call a brain?"
Linden: "Yes. Butterflies. As in the video of Rosie Larsen."
Holder: "Take it easy. I know you've never eaten real food before."
Linden: "For this and many other reasons, we will continue to move around at five-minute intervals. I have found us a squat in the sewers for tonight."

Holder: "I would like it if you lived here with me forever."
Jack: "That would be optimal!"
Linden: "I do not recognize the subjunctive and will not respond to it."

Linden: "Coworker. Tell me the information about those sounds on Rosie's voicemail."
Coworker: "Using science, in secret, I have learned that she was [essentially, something about a construction site linked to the casino, meaning Ames and Chief Nicole, meaning that's today's episode]."
Linden: "Do not tell our superior. Your help with my case would be appreciated by a regular person."

Holder: "Jack, I just want you to know I love you above and beyond my separation anxiety caused by my sister hating me for being an addict and taking my nephew away from me. Have some Pez. I hope to see you one day again, when Linden's neglect and general insanity bring you back into my orbit."
Jack: "I am about five seconds from freaking the fuck out."
Holder: "I know that too."
