“No, you haven’t been having any progress, and you’re not in control. It is in control, and if you think you’re in control, then you’re being an idiot! Not a single thing you’ve done has helped, and I’m sorry, I don’t mean to burst your bubble, but the camera hasn’t helped and the stupid footprints haven’t helped; do you think that thing would have left footprints if it didn’t want to? No! It did it because it wanted to! It wanted you to find my photo, it can be anywhere, it hears what we’re saying right now.”
