Father Brendan Is she dishonest, or incompetent?

Mark O'Brien No, neither of those. She looks at me the wrong way. It's that you-need-me-more-than-I-need-you look. I'd like to show her she's wrong, just for the evil satisfaction it will give me. Is that a sin, Father?

Father Brendan Well, it obviously troubles you.

Mark O'Brien Yes, it troubles me a lot because what if it's really just a power trip. You know? Me against her. Me against the world.

Father Brendan I really wouldn't worry about that. The question is whether you like having her around.
