It was the neck, Zachariah thought.
"Catherine!" Tellison said.
None of them had listened, he thought. None of them!

Tellison, Zachariah imagined. He was using these Tellison implements.

"Catherine?" Tellison said.
"Take responsibility, Catherine," Tellison said. "For God's sake, Catherine."
Tellison said, "I mean it's, I mean it's, It's your son, Catherine."
