Eileen seems to greet the number on her arm with all the enthusiasm as Murphy had eight jumps ago, when he first woke up into this huge mess. There's always something about being branded that never sat well with him. Like prison again, where all you are is a number. Back there he wasn't Pendleton, Murphy but Prisoner 273A.

...073.

Maybe someone did have a little knowledge in their pockets.

Either way, he isn't about to go worrying any of the new blood with it. Murphy just manages a nervous little snort. "Yeah, I bet... Mom and dad's worse nightmare." He wonders if Charlie ever had the chance to get old enough, he'd have done something like that. Just to drive his folks all crazy. Hurts to think about.
