As Ethan exited the club he wondered if it wouldn't be smarter to go back in he still didn't trust these Renegades. But that was the main reason he was going with them, if they were planning something he wanted to know as soon as possible. That said when outside he made sure he neither got too close nor showed his back to  them.

He even considered filling his pockets with sand as a last resort weapon, but decided against it. Not only did he doubt it would help much, there was no way to do it without  at least one of them noticing, meaning the surprise effect would be lost form the start. So in his opinion he had no other choice than just going along with everything right now.
