"Well, that sounds exactly like Elias moving pieces, doesn't it?"

It's a petty dig. What else can he do, though? He was dead, unable to be there and help. Daisy was in that coffin, Jon said, and Jon in a coma. But that's just it; where were Melanie and Basira to back Martin up, to keep him from falling into that hopelessness?

Tim is obliquely familiar with the Lukas family and their ties to the Institute. But it's just that. Oblique. And while he knows a bit of the statements they've gotten from people who have lost people to the Lonely, he's always been elsewhere in his own personal research, and in his follow ups.

But Martin has always been sensitive, tender, and something as insidious as The Lonely praying that closely. Tim shakes his head and focuses on his drink with a sort of intensity that oozes his frustration.
