"Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence," Hellbender growls, optics still narrowed. Oh, he's noticed those behavioral quirks, but they can still be explained by the most depressing and plausible theory. "Simplest explanation is still that you viewed the contents of Shockwave's memory banks and are a very good actress. How can it have been 'vorns and vorns' if you turned up only 30 years ago?" What is her apparent age? Hellbender can't tell human ages all that well anyway; he's simply not familiar with the species.
"Ah would not casually throw away a lead toward my commander, no." Hellbender tilts his weapon away from the woman, but does not power it down. This could still be an ambush. "But we do have interrogators who know how to extract information from human brains. Convince me Ah should not turn you over to them."
A bluff--or is it? They have Cons who have worked on Earth before, gathering intelligence from humans. Quite a few of them, in fact.
Hellbender's optics widen very slightly. "Ah did not trust any other than Shockwave and Hook to do that kind of work on me. But you would know of the plans if you had studied Shockwave's memories."
