The one about the Social Contract?" I took a bite of my apple. "Almost. I’m stuck on the part about rules. You know, how people follow rules even when they don't want to because they think it keeps things safe." I said it loudly. I wanted Mark to hear. "Rules are important," Jax said, leaning back.
