Maybe I just can't see how it could get any worse.

[But that slight smile's worth having said it.]

What I got is hope. It's not optimism-- you can have it and still spend every second knowing it's gonna shatter. But once you lose it...

I think the risk is better.

[He runs his hand through his hair, mulling the words over.]

I guess I can get behind that.

[In a way, isn't that what he's doing? His mind wanders back to a conversation with Judson. Boy. That whole "I'm off on a mission where there's a good chance I'll probably die" feeling, that never really goes away, does it?

And it doesn't but he goes out anyway.]

Hope's good. Big fan of that, hope. I think you're on to something there.

Right?

Let's hold on to it.

Everything sucks right now, and I bet it'll stay like that the whole time we're in here. But we will get out. Maybe we gotta wait until it's over. Maybe we get to fight our way through. It's gonna happen either way.

I can do that. [Holding on to hope. It's a force for good, like the Library, and if Flynn can do one thing it is latch on and cling to an idea.

And he likes this idea.]

... You're right. We're getting out. One way or another, we will figure this out.
