Because when something doesn't work, you stop doing it. You find another way that does. You know, if you get a second chance. Which back home? I don't. I tried for peace, and you know how that turned out.
And here, when any one of you could go home, and even if you stay, not one of you is actually willing to help if it gets hard.... [He trails off, and shakes his head ruefully] A lot of things changed.
The problem is you all get sent home. And even if I could be sure one of you would stick around long enough for me to rely on you? You can't trust anyone here. At least, [a sheepish smile; it's a trick] I can't.
