How did that image come about and how did it inspire this story?
There was an old computer game called Half-Life. You remember that?
Yeah.
It had a great story and there was a character in that game called the G-Man, which was just a suited man with a portfolio who showed up here and there and was mysterious, and then he disappeared. And I had this image in my head of a man in a suit and tie and a leather portfolio. Just walking slowly into a calm lake and disa— disappearing, submerging himself under the water and just disappearing. And how, what a frightening image that is. So I guess this is sort of a horror story. Yeah.
