  6. campbell: Were they able to use the phrase at any point, or should you still be worried?

    lee: Did they say it, or did they just pull out the cuffs?

    Birdie: You are the mouth of truth.

    Charleston Dave: No, it’s the love song.

    initials: Yes. She was restrained by E.S.’s penetrating gaze.
