Jack, who hadn't even thought that the offer might be suspicious, takes Sinclair's answer to mean he doesn't want to go nap right now.
He relaxes a little, unconsciously, and nods. That's a bit of a relief, to be honest. He was offering it, but he wasn't exactly looking forward to hours of potential monotonous guard duty. Now he won't have to worry about it, they can go and get stuff done and he can shake off the post-harvest malaise with a clear conscience.
"Okay," he says agreeably.
"I'm ready to try it again, mister Sinclair."
His voice, by the way, is normal again. By ADAM standards that timeframe is like drinking two bottles of whiskey and getting ten seconds of double vision.
