[Walter has recorded a video message from the point of view of someone who has just come through the door into his cabin and sees Walter at his desk in the chair turned around to face the viewer. He gives a little salute-wave.]

Didn't get me. But nice try.

...crystal clear.

[Walter says with a nervous smile, clearly having several more questions. Wouldn't Malcolm, if no one else, track an injured Walter down eventually? What the hell kind of punishment would that be? Pyotr is one of the only people Walter can imagine thinking of something worse than what Walter has already experienced, something that would actually make his life more miserable than it already is... You could say Walter took him for granted, since they have so few people available to them who actually think about their terrible circumstances, and really Misty loyal to Walter would be a boon to their side, right? Speaking of her:]

She was forced to participate in a sort of mutilation ritual in the past. That's one of the main things that tied her down to the comrades. I thought if I recreated it, she'd understand that I cared about her, more than they did. When I was talking about killing the guy, that was actually just what I figured I'd have to do to get him down long enough. [He makes the hand gesture he's going to make to Trevor, though at least his description is slightly more open-ended, less concretely understating.] To take about this much.

[And leave him alive for the experience, non-reset. Just in case it wasn't clear that Walter can also think of insanely violent things.]
