Justifiably so.","9004_2001" // Walter 2002 "Once we get back to the border, I'll take care of them. A little food and drink will ease their troubles.

You're all permitted to drink your fill tonight.","9004_2010" // Walter 2011 "From this point on, our destiny will seem increasingly painful. But together, we can overcome anything.
