What. Said Hal's face, and just about all of his body language, which swiveled a full 180 degrees to face her in the process of locking up the house. There was no need for it in a place like this, really, but old habits (of a lot of attempted murder) died hard.
In Hal's case, that applied to ...a lot. For once he wasn't thinking about that, though, following Riley's lead to wherever they were going to engage in this spot of fishing (as he certainly had no prior reason to know) and staring in blatant disbelief at the same time. "Not--there is no literal laying."
....that was a great sentence, Hal. "I despair at what the 21st century has done to the education system, no one has the remotest of standards anymore. MacDuff," he enunciated, clipping every consonant, "appears in MacBeth, one of the finest works of Shakespeare. As a foil to the ambitious villain he centers the morality of the play. MacDuff is--a good man. One who accepts responsibility for his actions even when they cause great grief."
Of course Hal liked MacDuff. Even if the trail of bodies in his wake more easily correlated him to the titular character.
