and we're gonna find it.
:46:03
EYE Tech's hands aren't clean.
:46:04
Bannister's implant is evidence.
:46:06
So you want to destroy
EYE Tech with a scandal ?

:46:08
Absolutely.
The press would go apeshit.

:46:11
He's the perfect candidate.
:46:12
I must have his footage.
:46:17
Is this about your sister ?
:46:21
Don't even say her name.
:46:23
You don't know anything
about that.

:46:28
She has nothing to do with it.
:46:30
These implants
distort personal history

:46:33
and therefore all history,
:46:35
and I will not stand by
while the past is rewritten

:46:37
for the sake
of pleasant Rememories.

:46:39
Tell me something.
:46:40
Why is your name
the first on the list

:46:42
for cutting
scumbags and lowlifes ?

:46:44
Because I forgive people long after
they could be punished for their sins.

:46:48
I know what you do.
:46:50
Why do you do it ?
:46:53
Do you know
what a sin eater is ?

:46:58
It's part of
an ancient tradition.

:47:02
When someone would die,
they would call for a sin eater.

:47:05
Sin eaters were
social outcasts, marginals.

:47:09
They would lay out the body,
:47:10
put bread and salt
on the chest,

:47:12
coins upon the eyes.
:47:14
The sin eater would eat
the bread and salt,

:47:16
take the coins as payment.
:47:18
By doing this,
the eater absorbed,

:47:21
the sins of the deceased,
cleansing their soul,

:47:24
and allowing them safe passage
into the afterlife.

:47:27
That was their job.
:47:33
And what about the sin eater
:47:34
who bears the burden
of all those wrongs ?

:47:37
Are you worried
about my soul, Fletcher ?

:47:44
I will have Bannister.
:47:45
I can't give him to you.
:47:50
You see that man behind me ?
:47:53
I don't want to bring him
into this conversation

:47:57
but I will if you leave me
no other choice.
