[ So Jack has two roles. He has to stop to consider that. What are the odds that those roles would be given to him entirely separately? He probably could figure out the odds if he cared enough, but he doesn't. He thinks it's not a coincidence even if River didn't know about it. It must have been intentional in some way, maybe to give Jack access to a network of other killers. A network that Jack didn't use, as Dorian explains.
Dorian, in fact, hits on all of Adam's problems with Jack. How his secret caused everyone to make a lot of mistakes, to die when they didn't need to. Dorian would be a better leader than him and he glares at the ground, only looking up when Luke talks to frown at him. The only thing that stops him from pulling away from Luke is the mention of scapegoating because, yes, Dorian did that and Adam hasn't forgiven him for it. He puts his hand over Luke's to stop him from drumming because this is a serious conversation. ]
Because it all could have been different if Bull had known. Everything could have been different if we'd all known about these things, if some mysterious person left an anonymous message somewhere explaining how memories could have been altered not just due to Frankenstein, but... [ He could get mad at Jack. But he's already been mad at Jack for a while and nothing's changed. ]
But Jack's the hunter, I guess, and we can't change anything like this. We have to start working on a new plan of attack. Maybe if you joined us... [ Which is to Dorian. Not that he has any place to be inviting people. ]
