Hearing a lady speak so callously about human beings unnerved the hell out of Phillip when he got off the wrong floor from training. That kid was barely out of diapers and the indoctrination was already taking over and- is that bourbon!?. More than just his old manager self coming out, Gray was pretty damn sure the instincts he had when taking care of Vivi came out in strides. He shouldn’t meddle, he really shouldn’t but he had to say something.

"Uh, I suppose...but then how do they serve if they're not on their feet?" Why is he questioning the logic of this Capitolite, he will never know but it'd be rude to ignore her. He also can't let his own feelings about Avoxes get to him...lest he be called seditious. "Are you sure your son should be having that? Is he teething?" It's not until he remembers some of the latest Mentor reel that he realizes who this person is. Let's just say that while Phone Guy's ready for Freddy but not quite ready for Temple Stevens-Drake.
