I am really starting to hate this world. How much more convoluted does this place have to get? It's not like we were ever able to do anything in the first place. How many different ways do the Malnosso have to confirm that, yes, we are lab rats with no way out?

[There's an annoyed, inaudible mutter, and then the sound of Walter throwing punches and kicks at an unforgiving surface -- like a rock.]

Damn it.
