TRANSCRIPTION FROM TAPE OF CONFERENCE BETWEEN A. BRADLEY AVELLANOS AND JAMESON LAWLER (CIA)
EDITED FOR CLARITY
[Minutes 8-11]
AVELLANOS: You're pouting.
LAWLER: I don't pout.
AVELLANOS: Come on, I've seen you with a bad taste in your mouth. What is it?
LAWLER: The arson thing is getting to be a problem. If we wanted to set indiscriminate fires, we'd use napalm.
AVELLANOS: You do use napalm. All the time. This country makes more napalm than Cheeze Whiz.
LAWLER: But it's not what we came to Murkoff for. We needed scalpels. Dupes with precise operational guidance and zero operational context.
AVELANOS: Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good.
LAWLER: Look. Here. Kern County. Caracas. Tokyo. I got half a dozen more. Places your Reagents had single targets they were ordered to take out with knives or poison. And instead they set fires. Half the time after the target's dead..
AVELLANOS: Dead is dead
LAWLER: That's not a scalpel. If this gets traced back to you, this could get traced back to the Agency. We're the good guys here. We can't have this rolling back on us."
