You're kidding, right?

What if the time she'd taken to freak out and message us had been time she should have been using to get the hell out of there?

I'm not saying she isn't capable, but I also don't think we should have a kid doing an adult's job.

Knock yourself out.

[they're effectively not working, despite Jim having taken the damn things apart himself. but since they're off he doesn't need to worry about her accidentally shooting anyone.]

I think if I can take a look at your technology, if I can't fix it-- [ she's good but not that good] --Perhaps I can conclude if your universe is more technological than mine.

It's something I've been curious about.
