"Bonnie and Clyde, huh?" There's not quite a smirk on his face.

He could've gone for something like Butch and Sundance, but no, he went for the couple as a reference instead.

But Thirteen doesn't belabor that point. Tim's too rattled for him to flirt. And they have to figure this out.

(08XXX is New Jersey. He's got enough dumb programmed field knowledge to know that. Weird mistake to make. Must be nerves.)

"South America's a long way to go for a hostage so your folks are probably safe for now. And you're right, Walpert will probably will tell the guilds some cover story about you being a criminal. Or mind controlled in a way only they can fix. Whatever makes people not listen to us and hand you over. So until I solve this and you can go home, I guess you're stuck with me."

He wants to make it very, very clear he won't just ditch him.

One last scan of his X-Ray and telescopic vision shows the team is still occupied far off on the other side of the city. Tim's address takes them even farther away from them.

"Okay, they're not following us yet. They're probably thrown because they don't actually know what happened yet."

There are lots of reasons they could have disappeared from Tim mind controlling Thirteen and making him take him away, or some third party dismantling the wall and grabbing them.

He holds out his hand again and takes Tim's.

"I'm gonna carry you again. Ready?"
