“This is a lonely place, Napoleon.”

 “It’s even more lonely considering it may be the last place we ever see.”

“No, now is when we need your optimism, my friend.  You must inspire me, not agree with me.”

“Is that some sort of Russian reverse psychology method? We’re stuck here, Illya, and I don’t see…”

But they did see.  It was only a glimmer, but all that was needed for the two agents to renew their efforts to free themselves.

Back home again, Napoleon asked about Illya’s remark.

“Do you find me inspiring, Illya?”

 “You lead, I follow.”

“Thank you.”
