Person of Interest2011
Greer:
You read the classics at Annapolis, Kara. Do you recall The Titans? The old gods? They were so afraid of the new gods, their own children, that they ate them. You work for the old gods, Kara. And they betrayed you. They were willing to kill you because they're afraid. They have an inkling of what happens next.
Kara Stanton:
If you don't work for the MSS, then why are you here?
Greer:
Because unlike the CIA, my organization still thinks you could be *very* useful.
Kara Stanton:
You think I'd work for you? [Scoffs] If I break your neck, can I go back to watching TV?
Greer:
No Kara, I know you wouldn't work for us. Not for money. As I said, money is not my business. I can offer you what your old employers couldn't, or wouldn't, give you. I can give you an answer. You merely have to tell me the question.
Kara Stanton:
Who? Who did this to me?
Greer:
Precisely. Not your old boss, Mark Snow. I've a fairly graphic idea of your plans for him. But the person truly responsible. The person who sold the laptop in the first place.
Kara Stanton:
In exchange for what?
Greer:
Do you remember how the Titans were finally killed? Before they could eat their youngest child, Zeus, he wrapped a boulder in his swaddling clothes and then watched as his father choked on it.
