Alex Gardner: You had Tommy Ray kill that woman in the dream link, didn't you? Bob Blair: Yes. Alex Gardner: Why? Bob Blair: I wanted to see if it could be done. Alex Gardner: You're a real humanitarian, Blair. Bob Blair: I'm a realist. We live in a dangerous, hostile world. I will do whatever I have to to keep this country safe. Alex Gardner: Yeah, that's what scares me. Bob Blair: You're a very intelligent young man, Alex. You've mastered an amazing technique. Surely you can see the possibilities. During his dream link with Matusik, Tommy Ray stabbed her with a knife. A dream knife. The shock to Matusik's system caused a coronary and she died. So, the old wives tale comes true after all. When you dream that you die, you die in life at the very same instant. Now we can go into an enemy's dream, kill him, make it look as if he died in his sleep. Do you realize what that means? Alex Gardner: It means no one's safe from you. Bob Blair: The question is whether you're gonna cooperate. I never had any doubts about Tommy Ray. Alex Gardner: Well, why should you? He killed his own father. He's a fucking psychopath. Bob Blair: Alex, it's very simple. Either you work for me or you die.
