[What Gabriel really means is you know that's not what I meant, and his voice is cold. This is not a satisfactory answer, mostly because it's nothing he couldn't have figured on his own. What he really wants to know is why two of his closest friends reacted to his appearance by knocking him out and tying him up, then refused to be forthcoming about why, once they determined he was the real deal.
But he isn't going to make much progress while they're working in tandem. Better to let some of this go and find them separately later, though it's hard not to feel the sting of all this--that Jack and Ana have been compromised somehow, and that Gabriel is unable to trust the only two people he'd want to trust. When he regards them again, there's something dark in his expression.]
I'm not stupid, Morrison.
[It's an explicit warning, one he knows they won't miss. The look on his face makes it evident that he knows they're withholding the truth from him, and people don't hide things from Gabriel Reyes and get away with it. Jack should know that better than anyone.]

I'm a little insulted. Are you gonna untie me?
