There's a scene with the sheriff the local sheriff that Tommy Lee Jones is talking to where he says can you believe it he just strolls right back into a crime scene how do you defend against that? I feel like this is once again a little sort of like he went into that room looking for the evil but maybe he wasn't. Shagur wouldn't just shoot him if he was really in the room but he would suffer the indignity of a crawling through a vent. Even though he is there he's very relieved to see the vent open and so maybe it's a little bit of a okay I gotta retire because even when he was joking about hiding you.
