[ John's face stays hard, his jaw set. He refuses to fall into the trap of making every human here into his enemy. He's not a trusting person, but he knows the value of an ally. They have enough problems without turning the crew of the Adamant into another one. ]
They were as surprised as we were when we came through those eggs, unless you think I'm misinterpreting the gun in my face and the interrogation about where I'm from.
They didn't have to help us, they could've let us starve. They have little enough of their own to get by. The only 'responsibility' they had was to choose to treat their fellow man kindly. That's the same responsibility we have now.
