Wow, Jack, nice catch. Really. That was impressive.

Tenenbaum considers her position.

She's learned what she came here to learn: who made an attempt to get out of Rapture, and whether they came out of it alive. And yet she's not particularly comfortable with her answers. Somehow, when she pictures the world she wants her girls to grow up in, it doesn't include these two. A man who trafficks in people and another who kills children aren't her ideal neighbours. And Jack at least won't be stopped by fatal failures.

If only he'd turned out differently. If only he'd not grown into...

...well. Exactly what he was designed to.

That one's on her, and she accepts it. But she also can't help but feel like she's given him more than enough chances. And it's hard not to assume that his silence means he has nothing to say for himself.

But back to the current issue. Sinclair wants this to be a congenial conversation; perhaps she should make some attempt at that, maybe learn a little of their further plans.

Reluctantly, she takes her finger off the trigger and rests it safely on her pistol's barrel.

"Escape from this city is a dangerous undertaking."

She directs this comment to Sinclair. Looking at Jack is making her stomach turn.
