JOEL EASTMAN – Jesus, Tatyana, I could have killed you!

TATYANA DANE – In your dreams, maybe. I didn't realize this safehouse was being used.

JOEL EASTMAN – I just got in last night. Raided a Templar archive in Moscow.

TATYANA DANE – Oooh, another daring mission of stealing books from Templars?

JOEL EASTMAN – It's tougher than it sounds. And it's important. Abstergo's been erasing our history from all databanks. We've only managed to keep a small handful of genetic memories and information.

TATYANA DANE – With the state of the new recruits I'm forced to use, I'm honestly more worried about our future than our past.

JOEL EASTMAN – My father always said, "Who controls the past, controls the future."

TATYANA DANE – "Who controls the present controls the past." Orwell.

JOEL EASTMAN – What? No. it's from this old song he used to scream in the shower. The point is, the Guide gave us something we can use to rebuild. I'm talking to Junko about creating a database for the Dark Animus. Maybe it's impossible, but there's so much buried knowledge waiting for us to dig it up again...what's so funny?

TATYANA DANE – You sound like your father.

JOEL EASTMAN – I just...I wish I could have known this part of his life sooner.

TATYANA DANE – I did know it. That's how I know he'd be proud of you.

JOEL EASTMAN – I've missed you. And I totally could have killed you just now.

TATYANA DANE – Oh fuck off.
