Summary
Thomas wastes no time with pleasantries—something Vincent can appreciate. “You must tell me about this treatment at the clinic in Geneva.” There’s something in the way he says it that gives Vincent pause; strain perhaps.
Vincent wonders what exactly is running through the Dean’s mind.
“Must I?” Vincent asks, though he knows the answer. He brought Thomas here to answer, and yet.
And yet.
The light in Thomas’s eyes flickers, as if he too understood. “Yes,” he says quietly. “You must.”
