[ It's not going to get any better with Break doing the explaining, because even with all of this, he still hasn't gotten to his ultimate point here. This is all just used to explain where this came about, because otherwise, it would make even less sense.
The uses of Alice's name gets Break to look surprised, but then he bows his head with a little smile. I would seem to be at the use of her name, but it's actually at the misunderstanding that Gilbert makes. That's what he had been leading him to believe, of course, but still, now it sounds strange to think of Alice as that Chain. It's not much better to know that it's Oz, but it only confirms the little deception to keep that a secret. He knows Gilbert well, so he knows that wouldn't be taken with the determination he's hearing here. ]
Mm, we do. We have to stop Leo and Jack both, and neither one of them is going to make it easy, I'm sure.
[ To say the very least. Leo is almost simple in comparison to Jack, because there's a plan to take care of Jack, but only Break and Cheryl knew that one. He also knows Gilbert well enough to know that he wouldn't forgive him if Break ended up being the one having to take care of that problem.
There's a twist in his chest at that thought. So he moves past it as quickly as he can. ]
...So. If you imagine everything Jack told us in reverse, that goes for you too. Sorry it's taken so long to get to the point, but it's complicated, as I think you see. Jack was lying about you being his servant too.
[ DID YOU FORGET WHAT THIS WAS ORIGINALLY ABOUT... Let Break remind you. ]
You and Vincent were both taken in by the Baskervilles. That's what I meant. But now you probably see why I couldn't explain that then.
