John, Sage and others in “Unfinished Business”

John

If the cops really are coming here, we could try and leave, but...

Uh, based on average police response times, any identifiable mutants leaving here will be apprehended before we're out of city limits.

Reed

They're looking for fugitives. The only that's gonna stop them is if they find one.

John

What are you saying?

Reed

I have to go out there, get seen, stir them away from this place, make it look like we went in another direction.

John

Even if they see you, doesn't mean they'll stop searching.

Reed

I know how these things work. They made an educated guess about the direction we went.
