[ The video turns on to display the Norman Osborn Hospital of Psychiatric Evaluation, Norman Osborn himself and the warden, Danger, standing in front of it.

Norman has his trademark smirk in place, though there's a hint of annoyance in his expression -- a hint that's at least not at all present in his tone when he starts speaking:
]


Afternoon. As most of you know, I'm Norman Osborn, and this behind me is the Norman Osborn Hospital of Psychiatric Evaluation, subject in recent months and weeks to both terrorist attacks and patches in the security perimeter. Obviously, I was not a bit happy about these incidents befalling such an important institution, nor was my associate here.

[ He indicates Danger. ]

This is the hospital's warden and primary security consultant; she, under my supervision, has been heading a total revamp of the facility's security, fixing what had worn down and overhauling entirely what needed rebuilding from the ground up. But I won't go on-- she can speak for herself.

[ He moves aside for Danger to take the stage. She steps forward. Aside from a slight pinch in her eyebrows that suggests a hint of impatience or something like it, her face is passive and her voice is brisk:]

The majority of our upgrades are structural and technological in nature, with components designed by myself and my colleague. Improved protocols and equipment will be implemented, in addition to new treatment and release programs. However, I will decline to confuse you with the details-- it suffices to say that the breeches in security at the Osborn facility will not be reoccurring.

[ She folds her arms over her chest loosely, her tone becoming pointed: ]

If you should find yourself in our care, I suggest you put thoughts of escape from your mind. Otherwise, I will personally have to disappoint you.

[ Smiling off to her side, Norman claps his hands a couple times in a (perhaps mildly patronizing) signal of approval. ]

Indeed. I hope you all feel in safer and better hands knowing that these problems are being swiftly and successfully contained. There has been no staff turnover, but I'll be taking firmer role in both management and supervision to ensure everything proceeds smoothly. At our current pace everything should be completed in less than a month. Thank you, Danger.

[ But despite the conclusion Norman still appears as if he's about to go on, and after a moment he does: ]

Also, briefly, in other news: I'm sure some of the student-aged populous may have already read online long ago about the undergraduate scholarship my company is sponsoring, but as the deadline draws nearer I'd be remiss not to mention it myself. Consider it a reminder -- but anyone entering college in the Fall with an interest in any science might consider applying if they haven't already. The deadline is still July 1st.

That's all.

I think we could all learn a lesson in harmlessness. From that, we could better help your patients down that road, themselves.
professorlionface: (I'll take your word for it.)

[He arches a brow.] New release programs?

Of course. Wouldn't do to have anyone looking somewhere other than where you're currently pointing.
professorlionface: (Can't be overly concerned at the moment!)

And yet you discuss programs. That generally implies there is some standard approach that is then applied to suit individual patients.
professorlionface: (Sounds questionable)

But what makes it notable is that you saw fit to announce that you've revised them. So, was there a problem with the previous programs?
professorlionface: (Deeper than you realize.)

Well, that sounds perfectly reasonable, then.

[He is maybe a little disappointed to admit.]
professorlionface: (You're sure about that?)

The potential transience of your patients would be a problem there, I imagine.
professorlionface: All icons <user name=kingrockwell> unless otherwise noted (like this one!) (I really should get a bigger mug.)

I'm sure it must be a considerable drain on funds, if it has them so uneasy.
professorlionface: (Working man's style.)

imPorts won't stop coming and going. If something's to stabilize, it isn't going to be that.
professorlionface: (Well...that's something.)

But what would that involve, interrupting Lachesis' attempts to disrupt the serving of their sentence, or intercepting them once she returns them to the City?
professorlionface: (Sounds questionable)

And if you knew the first, I'm sure a great many problems here would be, as well.

True. But if we could do that much, then it's likely we wouldn't be here anymore, either.
