Script passages under research
This episode’s transcript holds 284 lines, 1 of them with a speaker the source actually names (0%). The full text stays in the private research store, because republishing a whole copyrighted script is a different act from quoting the passages an argument rests on. What follows is every passage this site has research attached to, with 6 lines of surrounding context so the exchange still reads. A line with no name in front is a line whose speaker this source does not prove. Nothing is guessed.
