Summary: Discussing how to deal with the nightmare-memories and revealing long-kept secrets.

Regardless of how frightened she may have been the day before when she had the run-in with Zarkin Frood, the fact remained that he had given her valuable information about these 'nightmares' that she could use to get her and her family somewhere further along in solving the entire mystery. She and Eli might not be on the best terms at the moment, but that didn't rightly matter because he would put it aside if it meant working on something intellectual—she knew him well enough for that. And maybe none of that really mattered anymore because right now this was what was most important: compiling what they already knew and finding out what else they needed to figure out to solve this matter once and for all.

Eli's part was essential though, because of his access at the Ministry, so she would need his help. She needed to find out what he had already researched on this matter anyhow and amass it with her own knowledge so that they could converge on the same road and stop with all this 'need to know' shite because she had a family to protect and she didn't have time to wait around on her husband and his ideals of when he thought he was ready to let her in on his secrets. This was one that she wasn't going to wait on, whether he was okay with it or not, he would just have to deal with that.

Samara walked into his study, where he always was, with Argus close at hand, and dropped the few books and newspapers she had pulled onto the other end of his desk by the open seat. "Pandora Zurlo," she said simply as she sat herself down in the seat and greeted the golden retriever who walked over to her as she had entered the room.

Samara was worried now. He knew more than she had ever thought which stood to reason that he had been working with memory in the Department so he could probably tell quite a lot about it all by now. If he was able to create false memories better than she was there wasn't much she could hold over him now in the memory area. Why of all things would he have been assigned to memories?

"Since when?" she asked, not that it truly mattered. She was stalling for time because she couldn't decide if she should delay further or just give in now. She knew that she'd given away too much already. She knew that things were going downhill and at this rate she was better to just tell him and get it over with than to bother with trying to lie anymore. But after lying for five years it was difficult just to tell finally. She'd spent more of their marriage with this secret than without it.

Samara wasn't going to give up yet. She wasn't going to just let him win, not until he made it abundantly clear that he knew what she had done, even if his last statement was an obvious suspicion on her part. She continued to stare at him and replied, "Considering that most people we have available to work with are going to be just average and nothing like, say you, I don't really see the problem with just a false memory. If you want to use your memory creation skill though go right ahead, I'd love to see. I had no idea you'd become so...proficient."
