"Leave my car out of this! I want to make it clear that I resent being spied upon!"
He nodded, "Dually noted, but I'm afraid with an exercise of such extreme importance as this all such liberties go out the window. Every facet of your life is ours to know and believe me we've already run them all. Besides the fact that you show a natural inclination to pick up a gun if provoked adequately and go to war with the government you see as overbearing you came out among the highest of security clearance checks. Congratulations by the way on that. The whole dinner sham with your father was really nothing, but the implementation of an intense study of ours over the past several weeks on a number of possible candidates for the job we have."
Shaking my head I asked, "What can I possibly know or be so much of service to you to warrant so much attention and to be paid so much weekly?"
He smiled deprecatingly before his face turned pensive. Sighing he said, "It saddens me to say this, but people like you Samantha make up only a very minute category of people who have their eyes open enough to see the world for what it is without allowing the lure of entertainment, devices, money or religious affiliation to get in the way of your own observations and arrived at deductions as to how everything ticks. You are very rare indeed. You are a member of a select group I might add that the government as a whole seeks to marginalize and pass off as being a bunch of sticks in the mud scientifically speaking as it concentrates all its effort in keeping the masses unaware to the reality that we are all surrounded by. And oh, if the amount of your salary is bothering you, don't let it. You're the lowest paid member of the expedition and in my book that indeed is a crime."
I looked at the government man, who for all intents and purposes was being entirely on the level with me. On the level about exactly what though?
Softly I said, "You're being awfully candid with me. Pray tell why?"
"Why yes I will. Disclosure, full government disclosure is coming. The few members of your select group who exist in the broader avenues of the public will soon be exemplified for sticking to your outdated arguments and beliefs. Such disclosure is why I haven't had to make you sign off on the whole list of penalties of perjury and treason should you tell anyone anything of what you see and hear. After this expedition the whole world will know what we do."
