"But you are wrong. Dr. Seldon was of the opinion that you would be arrested this morning."
"What!"
"It is unfortunate, but true. The Commission has been more and more hostile to his activities. New members joining the group have been interfered with to an increasing extent. Th graphs showed that for our purposes, matters might best be brought to a climax now. The Commission of itself was moving somewhat slowly so Dr. Seldon visited you yesterday for the purpose of forcing their hand. No other reason."
[Asimov 23]
The lawyer provided to Gaal shows that Seldon was not over confident, but has outmaneuvered the "Commission" and has forced them into action, the Commission thinking they were still in control. (fate/free will)
