It's time to be surprised again. It's hard to imagine all-knowing Sinclair having to regret the choices he's made.

...But then again he's down here in Rapture, so there was at least one major fuck-up somewhere along the line.

Jack does finally meet Sinclair's eyes. By now he looks, more than anything else, dog tired. Eyes red and shadowed, face blotchy from the tears. Certainly too tired to carry on arguing. I'd say he's just worried himself into exhaustion, but I'm sure we haven't forgotten the other, more trembly factor that's also in play here.

"I do want to, still."

He kind of wants to say no he doesn't, just to prove that he could, but even Jack has enough foresight to know that that wouldn't be worth it. So yep, he's still in. Unless and until Sinclair kicks him off the team, or starts treating him as a tool. Either or both of which Jack was expecting to happen like ten minutes ago, so honestly the question is vaguely welcome.
