When you see a deer you're supposed to slam the brakes. Reduce speed as much as possible. After that, if a  collision is inevitable. You have to let go of the brakes. If you keep the brakes on the front of the car slopes down. And the deer will go...

The tests showed neither conclusive evidence for good or bad. Basically he wasn't going to die from it anytime soon. But the  doctor s weren't willing to say that he would not die from it. He could still die from it. The numbers were still high. But they weren't so...

"Do you think they understood?"

"Yes. Walter might act dumb. But he's actually just as sharp as Christian."

"Okay good."

"That doesn't mean we are off the hook?"

"Oh?"

What is that? Who are you?

You don't know me. But I picked you. I picked a lot of people actually. But you're the first to respond. So if I can trust you, then I'll give you everything I have. Sorry that sounds weird. I have 576 million dollars worth of ...

Diego's palms sweated. He couldn't believe he was still alive. He should've been dead... well last year. But then he escaped narrowly. But when the agents got him last month, then he really should've died.
