Kostya's sad story just makes Jack all the more convinced that he can come up with the perfect answer. He switches out shotgun for pistol, checking and reloading as he talks -- something that's already second nature.

"I haven't seen any children," he says. You know, besides the uh... obvious. "Only Little Sisters and grown-ups."

"But, um. If she's one of them... there's a lady who looks after them, she might have seen her!"

Jack is a fucking genius.
