A prison. Well, she's certainly not going to argue on that point—whatever her opinion of the Agrii and their intentions, she can still take issue with their methods, especially when they've trapped her here against her will, alongside so many others.
And especially when she can't help but think that if the Agrii had just put out a call for help, then someone would've answered, no imprisonment necessary. People like Cal, for example, who have maybe more kindness than sense, exist out there in universe, after all. Merrin would've even followed him, if she'd been given the choice. But she hadn't been.
But Cobb is right all the way down, from making the best of their situation to her being able to handle hard. Her brow furrows, and she wonders briefly when she became so transparent on that last point, but maybe it's just like calling to like—survivor calling to survivor, as the case may be.
She sighs, her expression subdued, and says quietly, "You're not wrong. This is not the worst I have... handled." There's a small pause while she considers him, her eyes searching his face. "You believe we can figure this out together?"
