Eliot gives himself a count of three to make sure he's still just as mild and reasonable as he'd been at the start of this before he answers. "Yeah, we can see everyone who goes in an' out, including all the people who belong here in a day, an' have every reason to be going in an' out. You wanna bet your life that not a single cook or housekeeper or tech flunky or contractor can be blackmailed or bribed t'get at you? 'Cause I don't. So I wanna be able t'make sure that not a single one of those people with perfectly legitimate and valid reasons t'be in the house, but not a single damn reason t'be in this hallway, ever is. An' that the handful that actually have cause t'be here-" The housekeepers who clean his room, the occasional kitchen flunky delivering food- "Are only here when they're meant t'be, doing what they're meant t'be doing."
