No-- wait, there was another project. He remembers. New assets. He doesn't know if he's worked with them before. He can't remember that much.
But he is also pretty sure this particular asset isn't on mission. They fell out of a window, for Chrissakes. And he thinks that dumpster might be theirs. It would make sense.
The knives finally comes all the way down again, hands at his sides. Maybe they're not a threat after all. But he doesn't know what else this asset might be, instead.
