Alright, so maybe this woman's crazy. Men controlling crows and something about being sent to the moon - yeah, this woman's crazy, and that ain't good. All the more reason to find Ellie.

"How 'bout you just focus on doin' what I told you," comes his hard reply, "and nobody'll get hurt."

If it means finding Ellie faster, finding her safe, then fine - no guns. He'll go with the crazy lady on that negotiation. That doesn't mean, however, that he won't think twice about whipping his gun out of the crazy lady decides to try anything stupid. Especially if it turns out Ellie isn't safe, or if anything has happened to her.

As for the network… Well, he was given the whole spiel about the network by the guy who'd brought him to the city; he was shown how to use the console, and it was bewildering to say the least, seeing technology actually in use, something he hasn't seen in over twenty years.

The idea of putting his face over the network, though, of talking about Ellie over the network. Giving people easy access to find both their asses and hunt them down? Shit, no.

But before all else, he needs to get the hell out of this place, away from the crowds and as far away from the noise and people as possible. "The guy who brought me here said somethin' about Earth sector."

And that's all he's telling her, so she better start leading the way.
