"Oh, I've no intention of telling anyone," he says, waving his hand dismissively. "Believe me, all of this is far beyond my pay grade. Haven't the faintest idea how to deal with it. I'm already far more involved than I want to be - someone else can bring it up to - oh - whoever knows what to do."

Which is not entirely the truth. All right, which is the complete opposite of the truth. It's precisely at his pay grade, and precisely his responsibility, to pass along this sort of information to interested parties. But - But the interested party would be Piotr, and he cannot trust for even a moment that Piotr wouldn't kill Beth.

And so what? It's your place to decide who your commanding officers condemn? You're an informant, not an analyst. You're supposed to collect and pass on information, not to act on it. Not even to judge it. What are you trying to do here, Vorrutyer?

"So you can count on me to keep your secret."
