He thought that even though Aquila was tough, having Everett and Doretta with him should have made him slower.

"Good thing you sent the signal in time so we could find you fast," Max said, clearly relieved.

Charlie and two of his team were hurt, and the other two couldn't stand up to Aquila alone.
