hm, so michael had many enemies.. and the soldiers have already told him what hey knew.. i think.. so he’s not getting intel here, but just laying low?.. interesting..

I like the verbal sparring between the two. They don’t know one another, so there is no trust, but the writing lets you see that they recognize they are playing the same game and that they probably would make good partners if they are on the same team.

“Maybe I’m not as smart as you gave me credit for.”
“If they were mine, you wouldn’t have spotted them.”
I love these comebacks.
