Neal… decides to stay out of it. He’s not sure it’s the right choice, but at the moment it’s a less anxiety-inducing one. He drifts over to Malcolm’s desk as Peter gathers breath to argue about… something. Who knows what. Neal doesn’t care right now.
They almost got shot, Ellen almost got shot.
Peter stops himself before he has the chance to be much more than scathing about Malcolm’s knowledge of his team, seeing Neal’s apparent disconnect. He takes a step toward the other man.
“Neal?”
“There’s no second chances here,” he says. He’s standing behind Malcolm’s desk now, staring at Jesus on the wall. “You die once and that’s it. It’s harder to remember that than it should be.”
Peter and Ellen both seem at a loss for what to say to that.
