Jac-144: pacing, eyes wide Did you see that fucking guy? The nerve?! Who the hell does he think he is?
whispers But how do we do that without blowing our cover?
pauses for a moment, thinking quickly We'll pretend to be on their side, Elijah. Act like we've turned against them.
whispers Can we really trust that plan, Jac-144?
manages to break free from the chains and stands up confidently Trust me, Elijah. We're not the only ones playing mind games here.
whispers Alright, Jac-144. Let's hope this works.
starts acting suspiciously, pretending to be on the captors' side whispers to Elijah We need to gather information first. Play along and let's see what they reveal.
whispers Okay, Jac-144. I'll play along.
approaches the captor, trying to act innocent and curious Hey, can you tell me why we're here? What's your boss's plan?
whispers to Jac-144 Don't act too desperate, Jac-144. We need to keep our cool.
puts on a fake smile and continues to play along Of course, I'm just a curious scientist. I want to understand your boss's brilliant plan.
whispers Keep it up, Jac-144. Just remember, we're here to gather information, not to blow our cover.
continues to act innocent and curious, asking probing questions So, how does your boss plan on using our research?
whispers to Jac-144 Nice job, Jac-144. Keep pushing.
continues to act innocent and curious, trying to extract more information And exactly what makes this experiment so groundbreaking?
whispers Good question, Jac-144. See if you can get them to explain further.
starts to grow suspicious, acting less innocent and more determined Come on, you can't tell me this experiment isn't dangerous. What exactly is going on here?
whispers Perfect, Jac-144. Now, let's see how well they respond to a bit of pressure.
pretends to be shocked by the information, but is actually very interested Oh my god, that's incredible! So you guys are basically creating a new form of life?
whispers Great reaction, Jac-144. Keep up the act.
leans in closer to the captor, whispering conspiratorially Wow, this is amazing! Can you tell me who came up with the idea?
whispers Nice move, Jac-144. Let's see if they bite.
As Jac-144 pretends to be fascinated by the captor's explanation, she discreetly retrieves a hidden knife from her pocket and begins to formulate an escape plan.
shushes Jac-144 Quiet, Jac-144. They might hear you.
continues to act like she's enjoying the conversation, all the while slowly cutting the ropes with the knife Oh, the wonders of science! It's truly fascinating. pauses, pretending to be impressed So, how long do you think it'll take before this new form of life becomes reality?
whispers Careful, Jac-144. Don't push too hard.
responds nonchalantly Well, you know how it is. Science is all about taking risks and pushing boundaries.
whispers Stay calm, Jac-144. We're getting close.
picks up the pace of her questioning, trying to provoke the captor Really? Pushing boundaries and taking risks, huh?
whispers You're doing great, Jac-144. Keep pushing.
pauses for a moment, then asks pointedly So, if this experiment fails or the creature escapes, who's going to be held responsible?
whispers Excellent question, Jac-144. Let's see how they handle that.
pretends to be shocked, feigning surprise Oh, so it's like this? If something goes wrong, it's someone else's fault? That doesn't sound like a very responsible approach to science.
glares at the captor Good one, Jac-144. Watch them squirm.
continues to act outraged, demanding answers That's unacceptable! You can't just shift the blame onto someone else.
whispers Perfect, Jac-144. Now, watch their reaction.
takes a deep breath, composing herself Look, I understand the risks associated with this experiment. But we have to make sure it's safe for everyone involved.
whispers Nice, Jac-144. Play nice if you want to survive.
feigns concern, acting like she's giving them a chance Fine, if you're willing to take full responsibility for any consequences, then maybe I can support this experiment. But remember, if anything goes wrong, it's on you.
