Hi again --

Luke asked:

Well, here's the paragraph in question from the interview.  I think it's
subject to more than one interpretation, so who knows which one is right.

I think I was referring to FITD maybe being the thing that he senses is 
"going on."  I think the part about the reference to someone being taken 
out because of something in Book 5 is separate & apart from the 
something "going on."  In other words, I think he's said 3 things in the 
above paragraph:

1.  He sensed something "going on," and she reacted strongly to what 
he'd done.
2.  He missed something.
3.  He put in a reference to someone, which had to be removed because of 
something in Book 5.

Does that make sense?
