...I...didn't realize that had actually happened. You did the right thing, regardless.

What's your question?

Is this going to be a problem? I have already dealt with wardens on this ship giving me wide berth because I am Russian. It is very irritating. If Red Scare nonsense is going to color all of our interactions, then tell me now so I can avoid you for the rest of my time here.

No. What you heard were the ramblings of a man in a play of his own creation. That has never been me.

It won't be a problem.

Good.

Technically speaking, I defected to United States. But no, that does not matter. He is doctor with heavy Russian accent, he must be bad guy in James Bond film or children's cartoon. If you are going to judge me, judge me on my actions, not blind patriotism or prejudice.

I understand.

I haven't judged you, Doctor Hilbert, one way or another. What I do know of you is that you helped my friend. You made some poor choices, but - you helped him for a moment.
