Fiddleford makes the executive decision to take Marco's hands in his. It's okay.

Well. He doesn't know exactly if it's all okay, but he doesn't want this to be something that puts a wall between them. He knows Marco isn't exactly enthusiastically on board with what he was planning. That's okay.

"I used a code Dr. Liewen gave me to sort of... hack into him. I can show it to you later. I have it written down. That let me get into his coding and pull out the Fog's power. I tried to contain it and, ah, it -- it got out."

He should have asked Marco how he kept it contained at all when he stole a bit of it, but he has a sneaking suspicion that might have been a little more involved than Marco wanted to be.

"But either way it's out of him. And it'll find it's way back to her, I have to imagine, if she hasn't already scooped it up."
