[ Apparently they're going to make no effort to try and hide their identities from him, then. Not that Jack suspects that they'd be able to keep their cover for long. Gabriel is too sharp and knows them too well. Even if Ana had also worn her mask, their voices, weapons, and general demeanor still would have been enough to tip him off.
That doesn't mean that he has to be comfortable with it. It's true that Reyes seems genuinely shocked and confused by the situation, not that Jack can blame him. Even in all the years they've known each other, it was rare to see him like this, and that's reason enough to more heavily consider that there's not something more insidious going on. That it's just Gabriel Reyes, from six or seven years back.
It feels way too much like being given another chance, one that he doesn't deserve, and Jack is at a loss for how to deal with it. It's a good thing that Ana's taking the lead with questioning Reyes now, because Jack needs at least a few more seconds to let this all process.
They don't have to tell him what his future holds, though Jack already knows that Gabriel will do everything in his power to find out. He hates not knowing things even more than Jack does.
So he stays quiet for now, visor remaining trained on Reyes as he waits for his response. ]
