The whole team had been such a finely-tuned gyroscope: Diego and Ben obeying orders dutifully, Allison backing them up in combat, Klaus keeping their spirits high, Luther keeping them focused and motivated. The moment you removed one of those elements, specifically snipped Ben out of the equation, the whole thing crumbled. A jenga tower tumbling.
But these debriefs are important. It's been twelve, thirteen years since Luther's had cause to drag a status report out of one of his brothers like this, but the importance of them still feels marrow-deep. Checking in. Seeing how they're ticking, how they're feeling. If they're still functioning.
Luther is a little sheepish admitting how much he already knows, but-- maybe that'll make it easier on Klaus. Not having to re-hash it all from scratch.
And who's even surprised that Allison told Luther everything she knew, anyway?
He tries to keep it simple, though: "She said there was a-- dance hall in your memories, mixed with the rave, and a battlefield." And a man. You were with someone. "That you stole one of the briefcases and spent ten months in the Vietnam War."
