He gave a shrug, took a drag on his cigarette and let out a cloud of smoke. "Wesker wants to take over the world. I guess he figured the White House was a good place to start. I told him it was a dumb idea, but he didn't listen."

He gestured towards the park, away from the crowds. "Would you like to walk while we talk? I doubt either of us wants too many people around, and it's pretty crowded here."
