Finding their positions suddenly reversed compared to their meeting in the Greatwood - with Jack on his feet and Hadama seated - the captain straightens fully, rolling both shoulders to release the perpetual tension living in them, and waits. He can't help the raise of his eyebrows even at the Tidebreaker's terminology - a patsy? - and takes the sprig of bark from between his lips. "Why am I the one providin' the lie?" he asks.
"I know that backroom well, but I ain't familiar with that box or what's inside it, so you're gonna have to give me a little more to go on if I'm gonna be takin' the heat for it." Tilting his head, he'd half expected Hadama to be asking him to go and fetch Flora from Stormbreak or try to make her see reason, which is no less a sore point, but it would at least feel like less of a curveball.
