[ He's seen a fast-penta interrogation, yes, but he also remembers Byerly's incredible confidence in being able to handle it. ]

Byerly's ImpSec. [ Like Byerly being a time traveller, it's something Wash doesn't explicitly know because Miles has quite pointedly refused to confirm it directly, but he has enough of the pieces to work on the assumption that it's true -- especially since Miles hasn't exactly gone out of his way to contradict those assumptions, so far. The moment he gets any confirmation, though, he'll notice. ] Fast-penta's standard interrogation technology here as far as I can tell, so I'm assuming he'd know some way to handle it, right?

He'd been pretty confident about being able to deal with it, when I tried to press how important it was for him not to be captured. [ He hadn't exactly taken him at his word on that, but that confidence hadn't seemed hollow. ] But if they ask a direct enough question, well. It depends on how much they already know.

-- And I'd hope you aren't thinking of going in there directly. [ How many oaths do you want him to make you swear!! ]
