"What the hell does that even mean?" Christian resisted the urge to flat out smack this moron. "Faking an injury WILL give us better odds. That's the entire goddamn point. I don't get what the hell your problem is. I lay out a strategy, significantly more reasonable than anything you've managed to squeeze out, and you basically respond going 'I don't wanna run the risk of someone pretending to be hurt just so we can get out of here!' What!? What are you, allergic to fake wounds? On top of that, what kind of strategy is 'Leave the gun on the ground and let the guards come in here to get it!'? That's not
just 'not the best plan ever' but the most nonsensical thing we could even
try to pull off.
"We get our hands on a gun, the one thing giving us even a chance of overpowering the armed guards, and you recommend giving it back to them? The entire point is that we have an element of surprise. We sit here, looking like regular prisoners that got in a fight one too many times. There's an injured person on the floor. They walk in, keeping an eye on anyone that tries to lunge at them, and take the injured person and leave. But that's when we stop them. They come into the cell, we surprise them with our unexpected weaponry, take them out, take their weapons, and we get the hell out.
"Now, here's your plan. We put the gun on the ground, basically shout out 'Guards, we have a weapon, come get iiiiiit!' and wait on the guards to show up. The guards now know that we
somehow managed to get a fully automatic rifle in here, act with exceptional caution, apprehend the gun, and leave. If we try to stop them by, perhaps, kneeling down to get the gun, they shoot use before we can do anything. Then they get the gun regardless and leave."
Christian brushed his hair aside. "Point in hand is that my idea has, not only more merit than yours, but I'm also the one that
has the weapon, so I'd say it's a pretty reasonable idea that I decide what we do with it. If you'd rather we just follow your plan, I can go ahead and advance it a step by calling the guards to our cell and just passing the gun through the bars for them. It'd save us the hassle of someone getting shot for no reason."
