So was Alex, and very plainly...see the way he stood when he gave his parting speech, with one hand in his pocket.....showing he was a model ready for the next assignment should an Agency be watching him.....crafty ole Alex knew the game was up and he had to try something and why he didn't mention the other 3 HM's in his speech as they weren't part of what he had in mind.
If you really want to be an HM, why not try again? But remember all those cameras, and if you could get 33 or more cameras, and dot them around your room then see if you can stand them being there, and if you can, then go for it.
Good luck to you.
