EDWARD
What the hell's the matter with you? Doesn't this prove I wasn't in South Africa. . . ?
HAROLD
Imbecil! Can't you control your rattling mouth? The woman you're calling a stupid bitch, the one who drowned in burning metal--are you that dense? It was Pretoria's mother! You should never have been given free reign over the India plant. From the very beginning there was no clear chain of responsibility in that plant.
PRETORIA
An accident. Edward's factory murdered my mother with an accident. It burned her alive. Edward's factory burned my mother to death. My mother didn't kill herself. She committed an accident.
DARIUS STARK
What's gotten into all of you? Sure, accidents are unfortunate! But this happened over ten years ago didn't it?
PRETORIA
Why couldn't I have been burned by an accident and free my bones from the loose flesh hanging. . . ?
DARIUS STARK
It's too bad it was Pretoria's mother, but it's always got to be someone, doesn't it? Don't forget every bridge that's built, every great step-forward man has made, every peak he's reached, involved certain sacrifices! And haven't we repaired some of the damage by sending help to her father?
PRETORIA
Accidents happen all the time. They are the way Edward's factories do their killing. No, Harold! Don't tell me it was an accident in Edward's factory. It isn't true! You are Edward's factory!
