Becker didn't even question the idea of Abby working in an animal sanctuary. Yes, the idea of being in a different place and timelines being confusing, those he questioned.

As they traveled to her place of work, Becker's sharp gaze missed nothing, noting everything Abby pointed out and getting his bearings in this new town remarkably quickly. Thank you military training.
Even without any prepping, he went along with the cover story as smoothly as if it had been thoroughly rehearsed. He was her brother. No matter that they didn't look a thing alike, at least they both shared the British accent, which seemed to be enough for anyone to buy the story. Even so, inwardly he smirked. His feelings for Abby had never been entirely professional, she could infuriate him and bring out the fiercely protective side of him just like a little sister could.

He glanced at her for confirmation before he went on. "Are we talking about an altered timeline like Cutter used to talk about with the Jenny/Claudia issue, or something else entirely?"
