After Annie's class -- during which she had felt completely stupid and useless -- what choice did she have but to join in on patrolling?

Besides, if she and Diego stuck together, Annie figured they'd at least...end up in a hole together, worst case. Right? (Which was also a comforting thought as far as Rey -- like Summer had said, at least she'd probably found John. That was...something.)

"We should get some rope." It sounded dumb but it wasn't like she had a lot of other, functional plans right now.
