Funny enough, Jack's been stuck in a city with theatres, bars, actual people filling both of them and very few who knew him, and he found the experience not worth repeating.
As soon as that thought crosses his mind, he takes a longer drink from his glass. He'd have to down the whole thing like a shot if he wanted to get tipsy (thanks for nothing, genetic modification), so for now the whole exercise is just to use the bad taste of the drink to wash out the worse one of Rapture.
"Hmm." he says as he swallows, to prove he's still listening, and looks her way again.
"Yeah. It's a lot quieter here than where I left, that's for sure." he agrees. "I almost don't mind it, though."
Mostly agrees, then. He's tempted to ask if she gets stuck in places like this a lot, given her answer, but there's no tactful way to pry into that off the top of his head. Probably was less literal than what they have going on the ship, too, so he lets it lie.
