No offeeense, Detective, but half the things you're taking credit for are common sense. Tying the votes, for example. We learned the hard way on the very first night that nothing good would come from it, baby.

You know what the greatest eeenemy of justice is? Hasty justification and self righteousness. I was like you, once. Trust me, I learned my lesson the hard way and it's stuck by me ever since. You want to know why I focused on escaping, especially on the first day? I assuuuure you, it was no strategy to relieve suspicion or anything like that. It was selfishness. [He smiles a very bitter grimace.] I had somewhere important to be and I missed it. If the rumors are true and it's 2026, I missed it by quite a few years. That's aaall there is to it.

"If we're right", you say. If. I can tell you right now that your current suspicions are wrooong, baby, and what happens if you sucker everyone else into following your lead like- well, like sheep? Wolves win. Now, I'm not sayin' that's your plan, I'm just pointing it out for you and everyone else. This is the sort of thing that we need to be waaary of, but you're brushing it off as if it's nothing, man.
