...battle lines are drawn, and Shah sits impatient and alone in the parlor of his wealth, where the light is yellow with the afterglow of his own meaningless success. The house, the money, the two Jaguars in the garage. What good is all that paper without the girls giggling and running around?

Moore believes this was "the real Mary," brought back to reality by Depakote, a mood stabilizer. Others suggest it was a ruse (successful) to win leniency...
