...hey, listen. You didn't sign up for this either. It's like you guys said before - you've only been here for six months now, right? You've taken on the role of heroes like they expected you to, but... six months is a pretty short time. And it sounds like the higher-ups aren't telling you everything.
[which is. definitely concerning, to say the least.]
In my experience... when the way things are done change suddenly like this it's usually a sign of someone or something working behind the scenes. [...] ...you're in contact more with the mayor and the others than we are, so - be careful.
You are a good leader. It's easy to tell you care about your team and everyone else here - and that's the most important part of it.
...yeah, I get it. You'll do what you gotta. We'll do the same. [he smiles] Just watch your back, 'cause we won't always be able to watch it for you. But I'll back you up however I can.
It's a learning process. And it's totally normal to feel like you're not really sure what you're doing or that someone would do it better. [he sounds like he is speaking from experience.] But that's part of how you grow as a leader. You look at the things you feel like you could improve on, and you improve them. If you think you're doing everything right to start with then you'll never grow at all.
[he smiles at them.]
Thanks. I'm pretty sure I'm gonna be counting on it.
[and to think at this point he doesn't know he's going to get arrested in a few hours yet.]

[ only a week with the newcomers, and they'd already failed. ]
...No, they haven't. I think they're scared of letting something like last month happen again, but this isn't the right way to prevent it.
Maybe you're right. But it's so weird! There wasn't anything like this before - everything was all straightforward!

We'll try to be careful. But if that's the only way we have to learn more, we can't not use it, either. It might be worth a little risk.

...Thanks, Will. And don't forget that I"m here to watch your back, too, okay? In case anything else happens.

Hopefully you won't need it after more days like this, huh?
