Damn it, this was a nightmare. James drew in a deep breath, considering all his options. If even half of what he remembered about this woman was true, she was not going to drop it until everything made sense to her.
Could he claim to be some kind of clone, made while his younger self was held captive? No, that would make him HYDRA. She'd shoot him on the spot, and never mind the fact that his friends would then take her out.
Half turning, though he kept an eye on her gun, he shoved the folder at Palmer. He'd rather have given it to Len, but his lover was too far away. "Get this to Hunter, hopefully it'll be enough for Gideon to give us a guess at where he is," he growled. "I'll deal with Carter."
Glancing back at her, he added, "If you want any explanations, it's gonna be you and me, and you're gonna let them go do their jobs. We don't have time for any more delays."
