[ yup ]

We've already blown the third time part, might as well adapt.

Ahaha... that's true.

[ siiiiigh. ]

... We can't keep getting it wrong. Just in general, someone will slip up eventually.

Right. There's no such thing as a perfect crime. [even with the ones they didn't solve, if the evidence stuck around, they probably could figure it out eventually.] And there's no one who's perfect at keeping secrets, either.

We'll either catch someone at a trial, or after the fact. But they won't get away with it forever.

We're rushing through a lot in a short time. We're always going to miss things.

[ ... ]

Unfortunately, we might find ourselves improving the more these things happen. [ huff. ] Even if that will mean more death.

...there's going to be more death whether we improve or not, so - it's better that we do. At least that might help minimize some of it.

Or catch the people who are likely to try and repeat their actions on someone else.

[she nods]

I'd like to catch all of them, honestly - it's better to know the truth of what happened and why our friends are dying than to stay in the dark.

...but I absolutely want to catch the people who are likely to kill again.

We still don't even know what HK-47 did to Tamaki. Why was there a skull in the rec room?

I mean. We got the robot on a technicality, but still...

Yes. Repeat offenders might get more over-confident and make more mistakes too.
