He isn't sure how he'd been unclear, given that Robbie is the one who just woke up. Rolling it over in his head - nope. He definitely made sense, and they're both speaking English. This isn't his problem, but for the stranger in his room.
"You... couldn't sleep," Robbie begins slowly. His left eyebrow is creeping higher on his forehead as he digests this new information. "So you thought you'd wake up a rando - hi, I'm Robbie. Nice to meet you - and then you and me would break into the mess hall, the one that belongs to the people who basically implanted Tasers in our necks, just so that we could - "
He breaks for the air quotes for effect. "'Find out' where the good snacks are. For future reference, I'm assuming, because I know you're not actually suggesting that we compound breaking-and-entering with theft because, and I can't stress this enough, there are shock collars in our necks, Mac."
This is starting to make Robbie doubt reality. Like... there is a level of stupidity in this story that's either a sign of a truly terrible liar, or else this is someone who's going to need to be babysat to make sure he doesn't bring the pain on the entire crew by pissing off the conglomerate. It's a joke, right? This is one of those Japanese prank shows where the "floor" falls out from under you in an elevator.
