Maxwell Lord:
They have all witnessed The Blur. Pieces of his identity have been locked within their minds. They simply need to be severed.

Ray Sacks:
And you're extracting their memories with this whole "Jedi mind control" thing. Very impressive interrogation skills. Listen, Mr. Lord, I'm no friend of The Blur, but why are *you* after him?

Maxwell Lord:
You are aware, Sacks, that meta-humans exist on the planet.

Ray Sacks:

Maxwell Lord:
That's the White Queen's plan. Waller barks orders from behind a desk. I work in the real world, a world that needs the rule of law. Anything outside the natural order is... unpredictable.
