Not in the mood for chit chat, [ she retorts, smiling tightly as she starts tearing off Girl Scout badges from her sash. ] Make yourself useful and put these down where you've been. Face down for one indicator, face up for two.

It sure is a lot of images of Root summarily executing people in a variety of ways, all efficient and clinical, which she steadfastly ignores. She doesn't appreciate the slide show but it's not something she's going to have a breakdown over, either. ]
