"They think we'll hunker down and wait for starvation or surrender. But they made a mistake." "What mistake?" Knox asks. "They took a hostage." Jolie stops in the center of the room. "Emma. Phoenix's sister. A human girl, nineteen years old, grabbed off a college campus to force cooperation. They're holding her somewhere nearby, using her as insurance." The crowd erupts in angry growls.

We are not equipped to negotiate a hostage situation on our own, no matter how much either of us wants to fix this immediately."
