I'm going to kill a chef if no one stops me.

That's a horrible idea, Ed.

Is it?

If you complained about it and he's found dead the next day they'll know it was you. Duh it's a bad idea.

What makes you think he'd be found?

You know what I meant. I'm not doubting your capabilities if that's what you're worried about.

I'm not sure I do. I know you're not doubting me.
You're actually talking me out of it.

Found or not he'll still be dead. It'll draw suspicion. I very much doubt that's something you want.

Of course I am. Did you expect that I wouldn't?

How would you avoid suspicion? You've acted spontaneously before.

No. Messaging you implies this is what I wanted.

Not acting spontaneously to begin with is the most logical option. You always choose the most logical option. Discussing alternatives isn't useful in your case.

And yet the word "actually" seems to imply you somehow didn't think I would.

I'm asking about you now.

Just wondering what you'd say.

Fine. How would I avoid suspicion in the instance that I murdered a man for putting onions in my food? It's circumstantial. You have to be adaptable. A quick thinker that can consider the variabilties. It's much easier to get away with murder in Gotham than it would be here, for example. But generally speaking, confidence helps a great deal. Keeping a level head is essential. A crime of passion can occasionally be gotten away with if thought is put into the aftermath.

Is this perchance a test of some sort?
