The question comes a little out of nowhere, sure, but no less out of nowhere than anything else that's happened tonight. Daniel tries to laugh as if to say no big deal, but it just sounds pained.

His shoulders slump. "Sarah Gardner. Two months. My fault." He ticks off the six words on three fingers before letting the hand drop. He doesn't know how to explain how completely he screwed up there except to be succinct about it and hope that will be enough.
