She has enough tact not to actually come out and remind him about Maxwell Roth, because underneath his cavalier attitude she imagines that must still be a sore spot. "And if you do discover anything that's likely to be a Templar plot I hope you'll warn me first." Before you rush in and cause a fuss goes unspoken. When they've had problems it's usually — not always, she does remember Lucy Thorne, but usually — because Jacob got ahead of himself in dealing with a Templar threat and didn't tell Evie in advance.

"I think we've a responsibility to protect these people now we're here. If there are Templars involved, this could all get out of hand rather quickly."
