You're Never Alone with The Strand

"Fire, earthquake, flood. You bought it all, didn't you? 

That's not a question. 

I'm not asking, I'm telling you. 

I look at a person like you and I know. 

You are a buyer. 

How do I know? Because I am a closer. 

I can sell anything, everything. Ask anyone. 

Except, uh, insurance.

Can't stomach it. 

preying on people so weak, so frightened of the future that they entrust the protection of their family to a piece of paper. 

To some promise of a corporation. 

What kind of man does that? 

Puts his wife and children in the hand of strangers. 

People he's never even met. 

Then one day... the man is gone. 

His family alone. 

The wolf comes to the door. 

And, well, no one's covered for that.

I presume this is the wife.

Doug Thompson: 

Maria.

The Victor :

Did Maria keep herself up?

Doug Thompson: 

What?

The Victor : 

Her figure, Douglas. Her shape. 

Does the current Mrs. Doug still resemble the woman in this picture.

Doug Thompson: 

[Doug cries] 

Yeah.

Victor Strand: 

See there, now? I'd say your luck is changing.

Victor Strand: 

[Victor chuckles] 

Absolutely.

Victor Strand: 

[Victor stands up walking away with the photo, chuckling] 

Body like that... it's just the ticket to help her latch on the kind of man that's gonna help her through all of this.

[Victor Strand walks over to the other corner of the cage fence]

Victor Strand: 

So, then... who the hell are you?

[Victor looks down to see Nick look up at him]
