"Probably? Real betrayal, hopefully with someone gettin' hurt," said Heiji. "I mean, it ain't like Hershel and I were trying to hurt each other, we were just havin' some fun. And I doubt Snake and Ema had any buildup, so it probably wasn't much convincing to it."

But he sure ain't come forward with the one who did it, and I'd say that one act did more to make us distrust each other than everyone havin' their secrets revealed or whatever would have. So he got just what he wanted, didn't he?"
