(Wes is working in the lab)

HAMILTON: Curing cancer, Mr. Wyndam-Pryce?

WESLEY: Wouldn't be cost-effective. I'm sure we make a lot from cancer.

HAMILTON: Heh, yes. The patent holder is a client. So... How's the science game? Oh, I realize you're just filling in, but, uh...

WESLEY: Do you have a specific need, Mr. Hamilton?

HAMILTON: I'm just wondering if anything turned up on Illyria. We have our concerns about her, too, you know.

WESLEY: Common ground. Mystifying.

HAMILTON: She's a walking nightmare, isn't she?

WESLEY: Well put.

HAMILTON: And yet you seem to be the closest thing she has to a friend.

WESLEY: (laughs bitterly) If you knew her, you'd realize the absurdity of that statement.

HAMILTON: Well, the partners know her, Wesley. Yes. They go way back. Heh. They don't want her here. They don't want her anywhere...at all. But they consider this to be your problem, so... (shrugs) have a nice fight. Oh, you might wanna try taking a look at the low-emanation scanner readouts. Just a thought.
