[This is something Gai is familiar with, that dance of sizing someone up beneath a veneer of hospitality and casual conversation. He feels right at home, in other words. He's used to people not trusting him-- that much, at least, comes with the territory of being labeled as a terrorist.]

Has she? Can't imagine why, unless it has something to do with what she mentioned about Booker possibly threatening me with a shotgun.

[He sees what Robert is going for, and he's not going to take the bait. Let the man make whatever assumptions he wants about him. Having a reputation is probably the last thing he's concerned about, here or anywhere else.]

Mister DeWitt [because in speaking to this stranger, he would show DeWitt every bit of respect he could muster for the man] has gone to great pains to keep Elizabeth safe.

Surely you can understand why he would be protective of her where a stranger to him is concerned.

[And, well. It went without saying that he might have received a better first opinion from DeWitt if Elizabeth had properly spoken of and especially introduced him beforehand.

But that was her error, not this young man's. Robert intended to speak with her on that point at a later time.]
