For all the good he saw humanity as having, for all the good Jane and the Professor were, Clayton and his thugs had shown him the worst of what humanity could be. Without meeting other people, without knowing them, he couldn't know if people were more like Clayton or more like the Porters.

"You are kind." He patted her hand awkwardly. "Thank you."
