2 " Now it’s my turn,” Riley said. “What’s your first name? Where’d you grow up? Who’s your favorite Batman? "
3 " Riley reminded herself that she was a professional, and stabbing Emerson with her nail file wouldn’t be appropriate. "

15 " Nice to see a pretty girl stopping by, even if it is just business. And look at you with all that curly red hair and big brown eyes. And you got a nose that’s cute as a button. I bet you work out too. "
16 " She’d expected Emerson Knight to look like Sheldon from The Big Bang Theory. "
17 " he’d graduated from Dartmouth, so he couldn’t be stupid. Still, she suspected he’d get lost trying to find his way out of a parking lot. "
18 " Seneca, the Roman philosopher. Sometimes, even to live is an act of courage. "
19 " If she had any sense at all, she’d clean out her desk and look for another job. Something safe and sane, like catching alligators or looking for land mines in Afghanistan. "
20 " I know that the Federal Reserve vault holds more gold than Fort Knox. Fort Knox only holds about four thousand six hundred tons of gold. The Federal Reserve vault holds approximately seven thousand. That’s a lot of gold. "
