i love that. that was kori's first "big movie" if you ask her, with more than just big explosions or whatever. i could see her really kind of leaning on him for advice and things. plus that was right around the time she was getting a lot of attention for her public persona (think megan fox + margot robbie after doing wolf, sex symbol type of thing) but she is really not like that, she's a lot more sweet and thoughtful and gentle even then she's made out to be, so he would have seen all that too.
