Unlike Phil the main reason Ethan didn't trust the Renegades was because he carried a grudge thanks to the whole incident in the club. He realized this during the ten minute drive to their HQ. Still he was gonna keep his eyes and ears open as suggested. First things first though he headed over to Phil after it seemed he was done talking to the guy who just approached him, staying out of hearing range during their conversation.

"I think it's time you explain what the Vygorns are, and why I seem to be the only Elemental who has never heard of them." Ethan hoped Phil wouldn't take this the long way but he believed that he and the others were due an explanation, he also wasn't too sure if anyone else had mentioned not knowing about their enemy but he considered that an unimportant detail at this time.
