"You can't always kill the person you are dealing with Sparks." Maxwell scolded sternly. He didn't like the way she was treating this as it was unimportant. It was his job to teach them. He would not be held responsible for them not learning the assign lessons. Sparks had the most to lose even if she didn't know it yet. She was the only one how had really chosen to be here. "If you keep that attitude you will lose your cigarettes and other privileges."

"My name..." She finally looked up at Maxwell. "... is Spark. There's only one of me, get it?." She really didn't like Maxwell but she could tell that he was that he was probably afraid of the 'Good Doctor' to have tried to threaten her like she was a child. "Before you get your little panties in a twist let me ask you this. What can a person possibly do to you if they're dead? Let me put this in a way a Uni* can understand. What tactical advantage do you gain from negotiations when you have the means and the manpower to eliminate the threat all together? It would be weakening your own position while giving your enemy room to maneuver. How's that for a tactical analysis G.I. Schmoe.?"

*(Uni in this case is shorthand for Uniform and is a reference to uniformed law enforcement officers)
