"But then how did show know?" Aunt Casey turned her face to Dr. DeAngelis. "If we didn't tell her, how did she know?"

"But you did, all of you did." Dr. DeAngelis flipped through his notes as if the words he was saying were in there somewhere. "She could read the truth in your actions, your features, your words, even the words that were left out. Her mind simply filled in the blanks." (27.17-18)
