[Yeah, 76 is pretty sure they've made a huge mistake, and only have a few seconds to determine whether or not opening fire is a good idea. He's about to, but Big Sister moves first, and Mother makes it abundantly clear what she thinks of that.
His hand is still out, placating, even though there doesn't seem to be any salvaging this. She's gone from thanking them to accusing them, and now that she seems to (quite literally) have control of the room, they aren't in any position to argue. Tex voices that much fairly quickly.]
Just tell us what's happening.
[The fact that she won't tell them speaks volumes, however. The away team might think they're within their rights to ask for answers, but their concept of what's right and wrong and fair means nothing to Mother. It might as well be a foreign language to her, but 76 is just about done with cryptic bullshit. Sparing their lives is exchange enough for Mother, maybe, but he wants a straight answer. They should at least be able to know what they facilitated.]
