Alejandro had no doubt that Cal was hurting. They all were. Alejandro knew that the bond between Cal and Sandy was entirely different than his. He didn't try to say that the feelings were invalid and he didn't try to come up with a solution. Being told 'no' for doing what Orla had suggested and being reasonable felt like a stab in the chest. He wanted to do the right thing in keeping them all alive and together -- but at this point he wasn't even sure that was going to happen. How Russell and Rachel both believed they had the final word on a human being felt like ash in his mouth whenever he looked at them. Because they were agents and not people. The only thing stopping him from heading to solitary and breaking down the doors was Orla. Not the fact he would've known he wouldn't get very far.
Alejandro's eyes drifted to the broken skin of Cal's knuckles while he continued to hit the punching bag swinging helplessly in front of him. Alejandro knew that he'd done wrong, not being present. He blamed himself for the fact that Sandy had gone on a mission, that Marshall had brought him to pick up Paige who was spirited away in the middle of the night. It was him that had put Calvin up to picking a fight with another agent and ending up in solitary. He should've been more aware to make sure that Sandy didn't suffer the same fate at the hand's of her bitch handler who believed they were doing good. That they knew what was best for the Outsiders. All the handlers thought they were doing good.
But they didn't understand. Not really. He could see their side of things and he wanted to spit on them for thinking they made a difference in their lives but once SEA passed there was nothing going to stop them from just disappearing into the crowd of people and letting them hang for their crimes. Alejandro stepped forward, hands tucked in his pockets before shrugging a little. "Depends on your definition of trouble." He stepped a little closer to the younger man, dropping his hands out of his pockets. "You want to tell me where the fuck all this is coming from, by the way?" Alejandro was certainly never someone to beat around the bush when it came to certain things. This was definitely one of them.
