< | < | ||
- | What are these? | + | Irving: |
< | < | ||
- | Nothing. A joke for Ms. Cobel. | + | Milchick: |
< | < | ||
- | It's the O&D coup, isn't it? The one that Dylan talks about, huh? | + | Irving: |
- | + | ||
- | < | + | |
- | Did that actually happen, Mr. Milchick? | + | |
< | < | ||
- | Of course not. Nothing like that could happen here. | + | Milchick: |
< | < | ||
- | It's proof. It is ironclad proof. | + | Dylan: |
< | < | ||
- | Milchick says it didn't happen. And why would one department physically attack another? Lumon wouldn't just then give them all the other department's resources. | + | Irving: |
< | < | ||
- | Does O&D know that? Are we even sure about it? Because with seven people, there is a lot that they could do to us. | + | Dylan: |
< | < | ||
- | - I could ask... | + | Irving: |
- | - Your new friend, | + | Dylan: |
< | < | ||
- | who lied to you about the size of his department? How do we know what else he isn't being kosher about? | + | Dylan: |

< | < | ||
- | Yeah. Just now. | + | Milchick: |
< | < | ||
- | Huh. | + | Cobel: |
< | < | ||
- | I thought it might dissuade him from spending so much time with Burt G. | + | Milchick: |
< | < | ||
- | I'm sorry. Should I have consulted you? | + | Milchick: |
< | < | ||
- | No, no. Good initiative. | + | Cobel: |
< | < | ||
- | I saw Ms. Casey down there. You're having her watch Helly R. | + | Milchick: |

< | < | ||
- | "The light of discovery shines truer upon a virgin meadow than a beaten path." | + | Cobel: |
< | < | ||
- | I'm trying something new with Ms. Casey. Keep it between us. | + | Cobel: |
