Riley: It's really not a problem, Mr. Sanderson. I'm interested in a race he was in last year. September 12th. If there's anything you could tell me....
Ian: Well, I won it. But the rest is rather hazy. Chance died that night, oui? They told me, after.

Ian: That seems... unlike Etienne.
Riley: I'm glad to hear it. But I'm afraid it doesn't do me much good. You'd be surprised how few people seem like murderers.
Ian: You mistake me. I do not know if Etienne could kill a person. But I very much doubt he knows how to kill a car. At least, not on purpose.
Riley: That, on the other hand, is exactly the\ sort of good I need.
