As Hauptman's questions persist, Gardner's memories reveal that the relationship between the two characters is more complex than simply that of "interrogator and suspect". During the interrogation, Gardner recalls how she traveled from Canada to France because of her love for art. After the German occupation of the country, Gardner found herself working both with and against German forces in order to preserve as much artwork as she can. As the character was assigned to relocate the museum's entire collection, Gardner had to cooperate with Hauptman, who she both hates and finds an inexplicable affection to. Writing for Bleeding Cool, Greg Baldino described this relation as an "affair fueled by passions and paradoxes."
