Night 56: Main Hallway, 1-West
[From here.]He had reached the meeting point in less than a few minutes and there was still not another patient to be seen. Castiel paused, standing near the wall as he moved his flashlight up and down the corridor. There was nothing, not the sound of a shadow slipping through the dark; not the whisper of something less than human

"Well, standing there isn't going to accomplish anything! Am I really the only one trying to get us out of here? Geez, I didn't know you all were so lazy..."
Did they even deserve Asuka's help out of here if they were this unmotivated? NERV did not need pilots without a will of steel. Asuka was 110% devoted to her job! Did that truly count for nothing? Didn't that deserve gratitude and protection from her employers?!
