[ Gideon gets to work on performing quite a bit of mental gymnastics -- on the one hand, what Harrow has just said is patently, depressingly false. Gideon has to correct her, both for Harrow's own safety and also because it's nice to finally be right about something. On the other hand, it's probably not a great idea to freak her out right before God's Spooky Brain Exam. That could do her more harm than good.
