[ So there's a good adult not actually keen on making the kids into proper small-time criminals? But he seems to have misunderstood who they are...though it's not weird that he has. But they hardly look like cops, do they?

D2 smiles politely at the man, and at the kids he wants to protect. ]

We're not looking to make any of you go with us, sir. We also just want the kids to get out of this whole situation.

[ The man falters a little, clearly confused. ]

Really? You are? Why?
