Iz A: You said...you said she would betray me...
Mr. Jones [on phone]: I may have skipped over this bit.
Panel 2:
Mr. Jones: Iz, I know you can't see it, but this was necessary. We needed samples, and she wasn't just going to give them to us.
Iz A: You should've asked her.
Panel 3:
Mr. Jones: She would've said no. This way, we got what we neded with minimum inconvenience.
Iz A: Except to her.
Panel 4:
Mr. Jones: Sometimes, you have to make sacrifices for the greater good.
Iz A: Sometimes, people tell themselves that.
