その仕事は話ができすぎていた。問題があるに違いなかった。そして実際に問題はあったのだ。ジョン・ダンカンは正直者だが、金が必要だった。彼には養わなければならない子供たちがいた。そのために彼は何でもするつもりだったし、上司たちはみなそのことを知っていた。彼に「No」と言えるはずがない―彼は自分の気持ちを正直に言えるほどの経済的余裕がなかったのだ―ので、上司たちは彼にその仕事を命じた。それは飲んでしまった「毒」のように彼を変え、判断力を狂わせた。本当の「毒」が何なのか、分かる頃にはもはや手遅れなのだ。

The job was too good. There had to be a problem - and there was. John Duncan was an honest man, but he needed money. He had children to look after. He was ready to do anything, and his bosses knew it. They gave him the job because he couldn't say no; he couldn't afford to be honest. And the job was like a poison inside him. It changed him and blinded him, so that he couldn't see the real poison - until it was too late.
