Lots of Awesome Badass Science Ladies, lots of navigating the truth and how the truth is used for and against people, lots of meditation on the nature of deception, lots of the scientific method leading people both into blind allies and to brilliant revelation, lots of little shivers of "Oh fuck, suddenly I know what's going on here, fuuuck..."
