Of course, yes, I am quite aware of those facts. I thought that you were perhaps speaking of some detail that I might not have already been made aware of.
[A momentary pause before he continues.]
Tell me, Ms. Bishop, do you believe Mr. Gray is the sort of man who is capable of learning from his mistakes if all he is made to do is sit behind bars? Would it not be wiser to seek some sort of community participation agreement?
It could be for him...a rehabilitating process of sorts, allowing Mr. Gray the opportunity to mend his ways as well as his reputation.
If you want me to tell you the truth, I think it's more complicated than that.
[Kate hesitates, trying to figure out how to piece this together exactly.]
I like Dorian. He's a great, fun guy, and I'd do fun things with him. He's that type of person. But despite counting him as a friend, I wouldn't consider him able to learn from this mistake, or even particularly willing. That isn't to say that he hasn't learned, "Don't rob a bank, the procedures that follow are a pain in the ass." Oh, he's learned. But that's different from feeling guilt or truly being rehabilitated.
[He does. And, in fact, that opinion is one he appreciates you giving, Kate. For, if Dorian is the type of person Yuri thinks he is, it will make doing what he thinks he'll have to do to the man that much easier when the time comes.]
Perhaps you'll tell me why you feel the way you do? Though I will understand if you cannot. In which case, I would simply like to know what you will do next. If you intend to keep Mr. Gray waiting, why try to make bail for him at all?
It's all over his public announcement about the matter. And I'm not keeping him waiting forever, exactly, but like I said, I'm not going to overwork myself. Besides, I got ported out in the middle of that process, so I'm still coping with some new information. [All that is stated lightly enough. While it's true that she's coping, it's more to do with what she says before: she doesn't think Dorian really cares beyond the fact that he's bored. So, he can go without a speedy exit.]
Of course, I understand. I thought only to ask in case it pertained to Mr. Gray...though I suspect now that you meant new information with regards to yourself? In any case, I will not pry.
I also do not wish to take up any more of your time. Might I send you a check in the morning to be put towards Mr. Gray's bail fund?
A check is fine. Sending it to Mr. Matt Murdock's law firm is the best place, as that's where I work. [After a moment, she follows up with information.]
Thank you for your assistance, and I assure you that Mr. Gray will be paying you back soon.
As for Mr. Gray...I can hardly expect him to have the means to pay me back very soon, much less anyone else, so there isn't any need to hurry. As soon as he is able will suffice.
I thank you for your time, Ms. Bishop. Do take care.

Do you understand me?

What new information, do you mind my asking?
