Well that's.

A turn of events.

He keeps to himself, but listens closely. So Jack saved a Sister! That's good news, in the context of his own conversation with Tenenbaum. His inner twelve year-old is sticking his tongue out at her, singing I TOLD YOU SO, I TOLD YOU SO.

But on the other hand, without harvesting Little Sisters, Jack's withdrawal's only gonna get worse. Whatever ADAM he can scrounge up from other sources isn't going to give him the boost he's used to. And Sinclair really doesn't want to have think about what he's going to do if Jack's cravings get out of hand.

Whether he likes it or not, he's going to have to have a way out in mind. And it's not that he didn't know what he was getting himself into; Jack Ryan's got a trail of bodies in his wake, each one showing evidence of a different kind of extremely unnatural death. He's been splicing since he got here, that's not a secret. But knowing he can't die throws something of a wrench in the Quick Exit gears.

And for what it's worth, he likes the kid. He's not terrible company, especially considering the type of company Sinclair would usually have to pick from. The whole scenario is unpleasant.

Maybe he'll have to talk to Tenenbaum again, figure out a better way to keep him on this side of sane.
