Susan "Susie" Glass and Edward "Eddie" Horniman in “Do You Reject Satan?”

Apologies for the tardiness. I was waylaid at the farm.

Mm. Are the workers all happy and capitulated?

Happy enough now that the scourge of socialist agitation’s been eradicated.

Hm. What about our product? Managed to recover it?

Blanket picked up the barrels this morning. They are now buried under six feet of soil, where it can’t turn any more minds into oblivion.

Now, seeing as you’ve already gone against your father once already, would I be correct in assuming you’re gonna join me on the bill?

What makes you think I wasn’t simply moved by the desire to save the loss of innocent lives?

Well, I wouldn’t dream of suggesting otherwise.

Ah.

I think I know you pretty well now. I have a feeling you’ve already made up your mind.

Am I that easy to read?

You’re many things, Susan. Easy to read isn’t one of them. Same can’t be said of your father, unfortunately.

I know people think my father’s mad, but he’s not. A little eccentric, maybe, set in his ways, and maybe I haven’t always realized that sometimes he’s wrong, but he’s not mad. Saying that, he will be if he finds out.

Mm. The first thing he’ll know is when the bill goes through, by which time, it’ll be too late to stop it. Then you and I are gonna sit down with him and have a little chat, tell him how much fucking money he’s gonna make.

All right, then, Captain. If we’re gonna hijack democracy in the name of making a healthy profit, we should start rounding up some peers.

Yes, we should.
