Dawson wasn't a man who fucked around. He was very serious, very prepared. It the police came after him, he would deal with it. If his handler came after him, he would handle it. But how would he handle it. He knew that he'd have to at least maim her and tell her to stay out of it. So when he got that message about them having confessions that they needed to get out of the way, he pulled out a burned and called the police again, knowing he was far enough away at from his base. He asked for the Fed in charge of the punisher case and he was transfered. One he heard her voice, he sighed." Confessions are a dangerous thing guardian angel, they get men killed and drive others mad. I'm not giving up. So I ask you.... who's side are you on." And with that he hangs up and smashes the phone before walking away.
