Now, Magnussen. Magnussen is like a shark. It’s the only way I can describe him. Have you ever been to the shark tank at the London Aquarium, John? Stood up close to the glass. Those floating flat faces, those dead eyes. That’s what he is. I’ve dealt with murderers, psychopaths, terrorists, serial killers. None of them can turn my stomach like Charles Augustus Magnussen.
