Of all the things he could have asked... Leanne couldn't quite help a small laugh at Zero's question, shaking her head slightly. Why, huh? She'd have sure liked to know why anyone in the Institute did anything to them. No matter how much she thought about it, no matter how many theories she shared with fellow prisoners... She couldn't even begin to understand why anything happened in this place.

"I don't know," she said at length, flashing him a smile even she could tell didn't look too convincing. "I think... He was like the nurses. He really thought I was just some crazy girl called Jessica. He... He wanted to help me." She could have almost trusted him too, could have wanted to take him up on his offers to help... If she hadn't known about everything else that went on in the Institute.
