look like you guys are keeping her against her will.
You see where I’m, going?

A.
Understood now.
Q.
And if she is completely crazy or acting
bizarre and you let her go and she gets run over by a
truck, then you don’t look so good either.

A.
Right.
Q.
I’m not trying to trick you.
A.
I understand where you’re coming from. Let
me say this then, okay?

Q.
All right.
A.
That’s tricky, isn’t it? If —— if she had --
let me say this: If she had asked to leave, then we
would have asked Alain yeah or no. I’ll tell you why.
We -— me, I didn’t want to have a situation where she’d
take her clothes of f and go running back in the back of
the hotel and get hit by a truck or something. I
didn’t want that to happen. I didn’t know the
situation she was in I did know something was wrong,
so, obviously, I didn’t want to have a situation where
if she is gonna be some kind of risk to herself or
danger to herself and get hurt -- I didn’t want that to
happen.

Q.
Okay. So were those feelings communicated to
Sam and Alfonso?
