You know what they say about good advice. Can't do anything with it but pass it along.
[ It's never useful to oneself. ]
Seriously, you know this is going to blow up, right? You can't keep this a secret forever, because too many people already know. [ And one of them is Yuber. ] If you want to stay one step ahead, get in front of it. Good way to wipe out my leverage, too.
It's going to blow up even if I say nothing. Whether she finds out on accident or because I said something, it's not going to end well. There's nothing in it for me either way.
There's Elza, too. [ Also in on Chris's Yuber patrol. ] Unless she already knows? [ He doesn't think Elza would mind bits with the killing, but she might not want to be led on. ]
Hm. I should check in with Elza, on that front. No one else knows anything at all, you're the first Yuber has apparently tattled to.
[he's gonna be on his way to the manor to have a few words with the weirdo over that]
You and I operate on a different level from the kind and honorable. I trust you grasp that I'm willing to do anything to strike a balance, no matter how underhanded? I assumed the risk the moment I came up with the idea. I'm not an idiot, I know how delicate the balance is, here.
I won't pretend to be a good person. [ Or even that he has a solid idea of what a good person is. That is the kind of thing that changes with the light. ] But when you get down to it I'm pretty simple. I don't like seeing people get hurt.
[ That means you too, Geddoe. Which is why he's not planning on telling Chris anytime soon. ]

You're lucky I take dishonesty as a compliment.

[an interesting little tidbit, a suggestion of where he and Nash agree besides...well, almost everything else. Huh. Who'da thunk.]
Leave it to me, Nash. If this fails, I'll let you know immediately.
