Hey how dare you give her that look when it is you, madam, who has spawned the clown head and will also be stared at thus.

"But none of that is true!"

It gets under Morgan's skin when something refuses to make sense, and this is like having sand under there. She talks with her hands, with big, frustrated movements.

"What the hell are you talking about? The Soviets first breached into space--" Yes, she has enough of the vibe of this town to keep her voice down. "First satellite, first spacewalk, first contact. There's no record anywhere of them doing it in partnership with a private corporation until they approached the United States. And nothing called Goddard has its hands in artificial intelligence research."

The tone of the last sentence is dismissive. Never mind the fact that a lot of Morgan's information is at least a few years out of date. This isn't some guy she might have known and then forgotten: this is a whole megacorporation whose impact on the world is entirely in Renee's head.
