Jim knew that wasn't the case any longer. the only way they'd get home is if they could figure out that jump drive, if it was indeed the culprit in all of this.
the answer to their being dragged her and the answer to getting home lay on the Tranquility, whether they liked it or not. but there was always a chance they might need to run, and so:]
It's always good to have a back up plan.
