Hi,
Great part.
"Yes. I understand you're going to try hypnosis on her tomorrow morning."
"That's right. I'm trying to uncover repressed memories from her stay in the Congo. She seems to be *too* stable and well adjusted for someone who allegedly spent ten years in a refugee camp. Thorul seems to think there's more to it than that. After all, there's no proof she was actually there for the last ten years. It's her word against no one's."
"You think she was actually somewhere else? Not in a refugee camp?"
"Think about it, Boyle. All the other women in those camps were raped – and she's unscathed? There's a missing link. I don't even know if she's aware of the missing piece. She may have subconsciously buried it in order to survive over there."
Deter think Lois is lying. They lie to him too.
"Usually you can't make a person do something they don't want to do. You can release their inhibitions, but you can't make them defy their inner intuitiveness and feelings."
"Say it in bloody English, Deter. Yes or no?"
"If Lois Lane is attracted to you, then yes, I could probably make her fall in love with you. In other words, *if* she is denying her feelings for you because she's married and feels that they are inappropriate, then you might have a shot with her. I can't make her fall out of love with her husband; however, I could *possibly* make her forget that she knows him, since he's been in her life for all of two weeks. When he comes home, I'm sure just the sight of him would bring all the memories, and therefore, the feelings would come back spontaneously."
