[She doesn't even do it to try to psychoanalyze him, and yet look at Noriaki Kakyoin go, handing her a perfectly detailed report of...something. Not her, that much is for certain; too many of the aspects are wrong, and he doesn't try to relate aspects of the scenario to her own qualities or observed behaviors. He just lays out a foundation of one assumption after another, peppering in themes like futility and inevitability and uselessness. None of those are hers. She's never once given him any reason to think that she cares about her own efforts being meaningless.

They see two different things, when they look at the garbage chute. He sees becoming garbage. She sees thrown away.

For her, the garbage chute is a reminder of something that already happened, a last insult to injury, a tableau of a school setting where her father is the headmaster and she is thrown away.

For Noriaki Kakyoin, the garbage chute is a defining environment. His interpretation of the execution puts the victim there because it's where they belong.]
