Well, I figured it wasn't Lara, and I thought Luke was suspicious and kept talking about that because of it. What more was I to do...? I do think this makes that other guy twice as suspicious.

[ whatever. she may have wasted some of her time with the jeff thing but she did keep gesturing at luke whenever she was discussing the case. shijima just straight up did not have an interest in forcing anyone to come around to whatever point of view she had. although she presumes her conversation with alfendi and luke swayed alfendi to that vote. ]

It's not like I care about telling anyone my thoughts, but I really don't think a lot of people will be honest about that sort of thing. There's too much distrust.
