[ She shakes her head. ]

What must be done must be done. I'm only doing what anyone else should do.

[cyclists]

... I have seen many others in time, and I cannot say that it is something that anyone else would do.

[forefall]

[cyclists]

[there is a laugh at that]

Always striving ever forward, aren't you?

[forefall]

[ Sounding self-important is her best skill. ]
